How many years have we waited for this moment, Aunty?

On the one hand, it's been centuries.

And on the other hand, the last 14 years.

And today?

Today, the High Priestess will fulfil our dream, won't she?

Yes.

Now, the time has come.

But, how has the machine made all of this possible, Aunty?

It's not just the machine.

It's the energy.

Everything in the universe is nothing but energy.

Energy can neither be created, nor destroyed.

However, energy can be converted from one existing form to another…

…by our Aayast machine.

When Yast and the machine finally come together,

that's when the real process will begin.

And with this process,

the pain and suffering that society has inflicted on us Aayasthians

will finally be avenged.

Today is a truly historic day.

Today, the world will change forever.

And today, if we fail to create the Yast, what will we do then?

We will have a very long wait ahead of us

till another uninterrupted cycle of energy ends.

Many of you have lost your beloved family members.

Before more lives are taken away from us,

those evil witches and their unholy black magic

must be destroyed forever!

My friends, if we are here to save Charandaspur from such dangers,

then not just from this town, we must evict them from this world!

Rukmini, there's some bad news.

Jayanand has stirred up a mob and they're on their way here.

Let's go!

Aayastians!

The moment we have waited so many centuries for is finally upon us.

But the villagers are coming here to destroy it all.

We, Aayastians, must fight back

with all the strength and courage we can muster.

This is not the time to have second thoughts.

Stop them now!

Break down the door!

Break it down!

Aayastians,

you must keep the villagers out until the process is complete.

Do not lose courage!

Just a little longer!

No!

No, Rukmini, wait!

Only if you live will our dream of creating Yast remain alive.

You must get out of here before the villagers force their way in.

Moksha, the machine and gemstone.

Go, Rukmini!

Go!

Burn it down!

Bread omelette! Bread omelette!

Bread omelette! Bread omelette!

AIR CONDITIONED, ECONOMY

All right, my friend, here's the Reverse card and Uno!

Come on, Uncle, that's not fair. You're just lucky.

We're all lucky. The train's empty. We can sleep comfortably.

Just see the crowd that comes in at the next station.

What are you say--

Where have you been, stranger?

I was outside.

You almost wasted a 1000-rupee ticket for a 10-rupee cigarette.

Did you get water?

Okay, no problem. Abhishek just gave me some.

Abhishek, this is my son, Vikram Singh.

He's with Delhi Police.

-Want some water? -No, no. Thank you.

I'm glad you gave me some water to drink. Huh?

Otherwise, I'd be like Rajesh Khanna in the movie Anand,

going "My dear sir, my dear sir!" before dropping dead on the floor.

Anyway, enough of my chatter.

Tell me, where in Charandaspur do you live?

I don't live in Charandaspur.

-Work is the reason I keep going there. -Oh, for work?

He works for a living.

I know. He's a press photographer.

How did you guess that?

I'm guessing your camera bag had a "Press" sticker on it.

Oh, yeah!

Wow, Smartass Sherlock!

Yeah, the kids tore it off.

So, you click pictures without a thumb?

That's impressive.

It's the eye that takes the picture, Vikram.

Not the thumb.

What a line! That's the Charandaspur style.

Mind-blowing! Wow! Bravo!

Here we are. Vasudha House.

Okay. Stop here.

A little ahead, my friend. Here, here, here, that's it.

Hello, Uncle!

How are you?

Recognise me? Vishwanath.

Hello, Shrikant, my boy! When did you return from Rangoon?

No, no, Uncle, we haven't come from Rangoon.

We've come from Delhi.

-Oh, I see! -Yeah.

Have you settled down?

-Or still like a tomcat on heat? -No, no…

He's talking about Shri…

Look, Uncle, I am not Shrikant. I am Vishwanath.

My son is standing right here.

Once a pervert, always a pervert.

Thank you, thank you, stay blessed.

-Namaste, Uncle. -Come in.

It's a good thing you sent your motorcycle here beforehand.

Now, at least, we can roam around in the city. Huh?

You've already started behaving differently.

Hey, what I do here is my choice.

So stop picking on me all the time.

VASUDHA

Two days after our wedding,

I engraved your mother's name on the wood here.

It made her blush, you know.

Sonu, Pawan, be careful. Don't go near the flames.

You're back? I'll go put on some tea.

Papa, did you get the chocolates? Please give me.

Sonu!

Pawan!

I've made okra. You'll have some?

At least, try it. Please.

Hey, Sonu, if Papa finds out, he will shout at us.

He won't find out, silly. Don't worry, just enjoy.

Sonu, take care of Pawan. I'll be back.

You know, Govinda rides with one hand.

-Oh, yeah? Look at this. -Yeah.

Pawan told me not to do it.

I'm the one who took the scooter.

Don't worry. Pawan will be okay, my dear.

Sir…

We've found your wife's purse.

But, uh, she's still missing.

Yeah, Abhishek. Sujay and Vijay have already left.

They'll be reaching the location.

-You leave as well. -Okay, I'll be there.

Hurry.

Mr. Awasthi, you know very well

just how much we respect the Chief Minister.

And after what you've done for us, we hope you'll accept this.

A little token from us, nothing else.

Dinu.

Count it. One more thing.

Let the Minister know, how much power we have in this area.

And once we decide, Mr. Awasthi,

where each vote will go, that's where they'll be.

And, uh, what about Ananya Bharadwaj?

She's a sparrow.

She'll only chirp.

She'll never be a falcon.

Hey…

We are the only falcons here.

Hey! Who is that? Go, catch him.

-Hey, catch him. -Hey, you! Stop!

Hey! Hey, wait!

Hey! Hey!

Get back here, you coward!

Hey!

Hey, wait!

Catch him.

Hey!

Hey!

Let's go, come fast!

Oh, shit.

Amazing!

Fucker, you've upped your capacity, Mandrake.

You've been practising in the sewers of Delhi, I see.

There's so much pollution there

that you automatically practice holding your breath.

You know, when I heard about your suspension, I was so happy.

Asshole, what are you so happy about?

Because it got Phantom and Mandrake together again.

It's not Mandrake.

-It's Mandrake, The Magician. -Mandrake, The Magician!

Our childhood duo's back in action.

So, boyhood buddies, what are you two talking about?

Wow, Uncle, you look so fit.

I can't even tell who is the father and who is the son.

What do you mean? Huh? Are you being a smart-ass?

No, I'm not being a smart-ass.

Don't teach your daddy how to fuck,

or I'll break your head with this tumbler, asshole.

Man, your father's still such a character.

So, how's Kavita?

She's still in the same state.

I'm sorry, man.

You'll see…

Kavita will soon be walking and talking again.

Vikram! Hey!

Hey, Vikram!

Hey, move aside. Move aside, I said. Let me go.

-Papa, are you okay? -Hey…

The same guy. The guy from the train.

You… You come. Hey, Pramod, take him up.

-Go with him. Take him! -He was on the train with us.

Come. Come with me. Let's go.

The body's condition suggests it was dumped in the water a few hours ago.

I don't think so, Mandrake.

From what I can see,

the way the body's arranged, there can only be one reason for it.

The killer wants to announce this murder to everyone.

Or he could've dumped body parts separately.

What's the reason?

He's obviously challenging us, saying, "Catch me if you can."

But why is there no torso?

They could've at least spared the thumb.

That's an old injury.

He had it before.

Since you know this much, tell me his name and address.

Abhishek Sahay.

He arrived yesterday on the Delhi-Charandaspur Express.

Fucker, you sound like you were the one who killed him.

He was sharing our compartment.

Papa and he really hit it off.

He said he was from Delhi, but I had my doubts.

And what the f…

That's a really strange symbol.

You know, I've seen this symbol somewhere before.

Where?

VASUDHA NIWAS

Sir…

We've found your wife's purse.

You know, Phantom…

Bro, I've always had this feeling that Papa didn't do enough to search for Maa.

Really, bro. I don't know why…

but I've always felt like Maa's still around.

Maa is alive.

Bro, I really miss Vasudha aunty too.

Do you remember?

Whenever I visited anybody's house, they used to remind me of my low class.

Not "used to", they still do.

But your parents, they never discriminated against me.

Bro, your house was the only house that felt like my own home to me.

Aunty should've been around, man.

God knows where she went.

You know that one night

changed the fate of your entire family, brother.

It was a cursed fucking night.

Urmila, get up.

-We've to take Pawan and leave right now. -What?

When Papa went out to find a specialist,

Maa left me with Neeraj uncle

and hurried off somewhere with Urmila aunty and Pawan.

Could you do me a favour?

I've got to save Pawan somehow.

Vasudha, why are we going to the Varuna Forest?

It's the only place where Pawan can be saved.

The next day, Pawan's body was found in the Varuna Forest.

They found this lying there.

Her purse.

But Maa… God knows where she disappeared.

This fucking symbol was on Abhishek's body too.

And this…

Hey, listen, Mandrake, stand up.

Stand up!

-No. -Stand up. I'll tell you why.

Just stand up.

Listen to me.

We can either sit here drinking booze and cursing ourselves,

or we can put our heart and all our effort in finding Vasudha aunty.

Both her sons have become policemen, man.

And besides, we have this coin.

We just can't keep sitting on our asses.

Let's go out there and find Vasudha aunty.

So, what do you say?

Yes, bro.

Both of us will find her, man.

Madam, uh, Abhishek had sent these pictures before he died.

Did Sujay and Vijay kill Abhishek and dump his body?

Madam, we're not entirely sure about that.

Uh, but, uh, the police are checking Abhishek's laptop.

Did these brothers think they could pull off such a big deal

with the Chief Minister without me getting wind of it?

Vyankat…

Call the Khabarnama News Network.

It's time we boosted their TRPs.

Yes, madam.

Madam. Madam!

Madam, come quickly!

Sir has gone berserk. He's pulled out his gun.

Ritwik?

Mummy!

Go, call that whore!

Sweetheart, nothing's gonna happen.

Papa's just in a bad mood, like always.

Where's that evil witch? Go, get her right now!

I have an idea. Go watch cartoons on your new iPad.

Hmm?

-Ratna? -Yes, ma'am.

It was a mistake, sir. Please forgive me.

Quiet!

Deepu, come out.

-Sir won't do anything to you now. -Shall I put a bullet up your ass?

-No, sir, I made a mistake, sir. -Shall I?

No, sir. No, sir! No, sir! To hell with you and your mistakes!

Do you need an invitation too?

-His bedpan-- -I know.

-Go and shut the door behind you. -Yes, ma'am.

So, you finally showed up?

Is it really appropriate to swear at your wife in front of everyone?

I've only resorted to swearing…

while you literally tried to kill me.

If that were true, I would've killed you for good.

I wouldn't have done a half-baked job like this.

You look very nice today, I must say.

Oh, ho!

You have a photoshoot with the party secretary, don't you?

You should give him… a little something.

Your election ticket will be a done deal.

That won't be necessary at all.

He's got you already?

That ticket belongs to me.

He's giving it to you out of pity.

By the grace of the good Lord Shiva,

as soon as I recover, I'm going to run on that same ticket and win.

Till then, scream and shout at your rallies as much as you want.

Don't worry, I'll shout all right.

Until then, focus on shitting.

Isn't that the CM's PA, Alok?

But he's taking a bribe from Vijay Yadav.

LOKMAN PARTY

Miss Shailaja, you left last time without even meeting me.

Okay, listen, you need to do something about Sujay and Vijay.

Mr. Vyankat, consider your job as already done.

Sir, it is believed that the local gangsters,

Sujay and Vijay Yadav have murdered Abhishek Sahay.

Does the laptop that belonged to Abhishek Sahay

have any pictures of them?

As I mentioned a little earlier to all of you,

our investigation is ongoing.

So, we can't confirm or deny any angle right now.

I'd request you not to make any assumptions.

Sir, sir…

This is a big scandal.

It's probably better if no one else finds out about it.

It's not just our jobs, we might even lose our lives.

What're you saying, Kuldeep?

According to our trusted sources,

the heinous murder which was committed in Charandaspur,

could well be the handiwork of two powerful local gangsters,

Sujay and Vijay Yadav.

But the police haven't acted on this information so far.

Now the question is, how long will these dangerous criminals

like Sujay and Vijay Yadav be allowed to roam around freely?

Ananya Bharadwaj, Ananya Bharadwaj!

Ananya Bharadwaj!

Did we order a hit on this photographer, Vijay?

It wasn't us, Maa.

Sujay?

No, Maa.

Gopal and Dinu went after him but that rat slipped through their fingers.

If we'd killed him, do you think they'd ever find the body?

The fact that these people are blaming us for this murder…

is not good for us.

This woman, Ananya, won't let the matter slide so easily.

Bro, you said there were pictures of Sujay and Vijay.

What? They were there last night.

Some files were recently deleted from this laptop.

Looks like Kuldeep was right about it.

It's actually a big scandal.

Listen, stop reading all this--

What's all this bullshit?

This isn't bullshit! I am talking about politics,

which you'll never understand.

I'm only worried about you. That's why I'm telling you.

Don't mind what I'm saying, you ignored politics in Delhi.

That's why you almost got killed. Listen to me, Mandrake.

Don't worry about this. I'll handle these files and stuff. Okay?

I'll tell you what, you just go and talk to Abhishek's wife, Shivna.

You should talk to her, okay?

Abhishek's wife is here?

Abhishek's home is in Keshav Nagar. That's where she lives.

-Ananya Bharadwaj… -Go to hell! Go to hell!

-Ananya Bharadwaj… -Go to hell! Go to hell!

-Ananya Bharadwaj… -Come on out! Come on out!

-Excuse me, a pack of cigarettes, please. -Yeah.

-Go to hell! -Okay.

-Ananya Bharadwaj… -Here you go.

-Go to hell! -What is going on here?

Where do I begin, son?

-It's the election season. -Hmm.

All these people are trying to make hay while the sun shines.

That fellow, Abhishek?

-He was murdered. -Hmm.

Ananya Bharadwaj has come here to meet his wife.

Sujay Yadav's supporters found out about it,

so they all turned up here to protest.

And now they are not letting her leave this place.

Go to hell!

-Ananya Bharadwaj… -Go to hell! Go to hell!

-Ananya Bharadwaj… -Come on out! Come on out!

You know what they were saying? That they chopped his body into…

-tiny little pieces. -Imagine!

Our poor Babloo.

-What a horrible and tragic way to die. -"Babloo"?

I mean Abhishek.

Everyone used to affectionately call him Babloo.

Aunty, give me a minute.

Hello?

You look good in that brown shirt.

Here. Turn this way.

Do you see my hand?

What brings you here?

I'd met Abhishek on the train coming here.

When I heard about his murder, I thought I should come and see his wife.

Sujay and Vijay Yadav murdered him.

I heard that your party had planned to give Sujay Yadav an election ticket.

Make it worth their while, and my party will pay you as well.

Forget that.

You could've called after coming here.

We may be bound by tragedy,

but at least we're still connected because of Kavita.

When did you last go to see Kavita?

It's not that easy, Vikram.

Seeing Kavita in that state, uh….

Sorry.

I wasn't trying to accuse you of anything.

You're Kavita's elder sister.

You've always done what is right for her, and….

What's wrong?

Madam, the crowd has dispersed.

We should get going.

If you need anything, let me know.

-Vyankat… -Yes, ma'am?

Get Commissioner Jadeja on a call.

Make arrangements for Sujay and Vijay Yadav's arrest.

But Madam, there's no evidence against them.

That third brother of theirs? He's a bull-headed moron.

Uh… what's his name again? Uh…

Ah! Bunty.

Exactly!

Get the police to pick up Sujay and Vijay Yadav,

then call Bunty and tell him, they're going to be in a police shootout.

We're taking you in for questioning.

If this was an arrest, we wouldn't have asked poor Kuldeep

to hold hands like this and do a threesome at the backseat.

Where are you taking us? There's no police station here.

I had no idea that the Prime Minister was riding with us.

I'm so sorry, sir, we forgot to give you a memo of our destination.

Hey, shut up!

Vijay!

Vijay!

What's wrong, Bunty?

The police are planning to kill you both in fake shootout!

-Shit, I knew this was going to happen. -No!

Should I kill them?

-No. -Hey, Vijay!

No!

Hey, no wait!

Shoot!

"Sujay and Vijay Yadav escape police custody.

Constable killed in a shootout."

You know what this means, don't you?

-Hmm? -Yes.

I must have done something wrong.

You've already launched a CIB inquiry.

A policeman is killed by Vijay Yadav,

and I'm blamed for a CIB inquiry?

The high command is very upset with you.

So, I can't say for sure, if your ticket is, uh--

My dear honourable Chief Minister…

What's this?

The 300 million rupees there…

isn't just going into your PA, Alok's personal bank account, is it?

Please don't worry about it.

I've made sure all the photographs in Abhishek's laptop have been deleted.

-Ms. Ananya-- -Look, sir…

I respect you a great deal, Mr. Chief Minister.

And the public respects me.

I've gained so much ground in this region that my victory is certain.

Now,

apart from you,

who else can explain this to the high command?

And, uh…

what of the CIB inquiry?

If I can destroy all the evidence against you,

I can create some against Sujay and Vijay too.

PHOTOGRAPHER'S MUTILATED BODY CAUSES CHAOS

Murder…

Symbol…

Charandaspur.

-Rea ma'am. -Hmm?

If you spend most of your time in the office,

it will be difficult for you to find a husband and settle down.

What's the use of getting married?

What a thing to say!

I mean, what's the use of being born? What's the use of being a woman?

We can't always live according to what's useful and useless, ma'am.

Hmm.

About the PKC scam,

Jubilee Industries has the most NPAs. Harminder Singh is your man.

I studied all the audit reports,

detailed balance sheets of the last 15 years.

When?

Uh… since last evening, sir.

-I finished at 3 this morning-- -Wait a minute.

You mean, you read 15 years of audit reports in one day?

How many pages?

-About 3000 pages. -Uh…

What?!

What are you, man?

An alien? Or AI?

Should we try to sugarcoat your briefing, sir?

"Try to sugarcoat."

I'm going to miss you, man.

Don't know how I am going to manage such a huge workload once you're gone.

Where am I going?

The Defence Secretary has asked for you to join their Special Ops research team.

It means you've been promoted.

Congratulations!

Ah, come on! Don't look so sad.

Come, come inside.

Sir, when were you going to tell me this?

Huh? I just told you.

I was going to tell you today.

You'll be joining them next month.

I don't want this posting, sir.

What? Are you out of your mind?

You're turning down such a good promotion. People would die to be in your place.

Sir, I don't want any more desk jobs.

I want to be out in the field.

There's a brand-new case in Charandaspur.

I've studied it very closely. I know the intricacies of it--

Pradyut is handling that case.

Pradyut can't handle it, sir.

Believe me, that case is not as simple as it seems.

Sir, please.

But Rea, are you ready for the field?

You still see her, don't you?

Aunty, please take me to my papa.

I want to go to my papa.

Yes, I see her.

So…

tell me…

How do you expect me to give this case to you?

Look, Rea, when this incident happened,

I thought that it had broken you completely.

But you came back.

And after working here for the last two years,

you've become the best strategist in the force.

Within just two years.

You're made for bigger things.

I was wrong, sir.

I thought if I stayed within these four walls, I could shut it all out.

I… I thought I could run away from my demons.

But I can't.

It's time to face them.

Papa, do you remember…

that Urmila aunty who used to come home?

She also had a son who came with her sometimes.

Yeah, that was…

Babloo.

With Aunty, even Uncle and, uh, Babloo had disappeared, right?

Hmm.

The police came and…

they searched everywhere for them.

They couldn't find them.

Babloo was just his nickname.

His real name was Abhishek Sahay.

Abhishek?

The guy from the train?

Papa, don't you feel that…

Maa and Aunty's disappearance is somehow connected to this murder?

No. I don't think so.

Tell you what, Papa.

Go to sleep.

I'll go to Urmila aunty's house tomorrow and find out for myself.

Why is it so dark here?

It was the shades.

Listen,

I'm checking over here.

Hey! Sonu!

-Babloo, what are you doing? -Wow!

Be careful, don't go so close to the edge, you'll fall over.

Let's make one more.

-There you go! Wow! -See how far it goes!

Look how far my aeroplane goes!

Vikram!

Vikram! Vikram, come quickly. Hurry up.

This is Abhishek's bag.

This is where Abhishek was killed and his body was tossed out from here.

But, what did these people do with his torso?

You wait here.

I'll be back soon.

Vasudha,

please be careful.

The… the boon.

The price of the boon must be paid.

Your coin.

Umm.

Right hand.

Your thumb.

Ask for your boon.

All I want is to save my son's life.

I want to see him get well.

Your boon has been granted.
