All language subtitles for ESUB PACHCHIS (2021)

Alright, one more...

Please... Leave me

If you don't tell...

I will tell everything I know.

-Please let go of me.
-I'm freaking tired

I have no patience. Tell me.

Please... No...

-Tell me.
-Please... Please...

-Just tell me.
-[groans in pain]

[groans in pain]

Tell me!

-You want me to keep going?
-Please.

Please.

No... No... No...

Please...

You seem like a freaking
stubborn douchebag.

Please, let me go.

-Tell me!
-I told you everything I know.

Please...

All that is not true. Please.

He is telling nothing.

What else is he going to say?
We've found the file, haven't we?

Further torturing him is of
no use. He'll die in a while.

Damn!

Do you know who I am?

Yes.

Isn't it true you passed out from
the National Police Academy in 2008?

There's been some mistake...

We have your file.

You've been working for us since 2014.

Who have you been investigating?

Please. I know nothing about that file.

There's been some kind of mix up.

I'm not a cop.

The next five minutes are likely
the most crucial in your life.

Think carefully about what I'm
asking you and then, answer.

Okay?

Please, let me go.

Just listen carefully.

Regardless of whether
you are telling the truth or lying,

do you think that we'd
spare you after all these?

So, you are as good as dead.

What is the decision
you have to make now?

Tell us what we want and die quickly

Or live out your final
moments like this, in agony?

Are you working undercover?

I want an answer.

Yes.

Who are you investigating?

Mallikarjun.

And?

Just him.

I do not know if you believe in God,

I do.

For what he did to you until now and
for what I am about to do to you,

someday, we will face the repercussions.

[gunshot]

[music]

"Don't come up with vague
and implausible excuses"

"Pray to all the directions
in your path and get in"

"What's this strange addiction to cards?"

"Gambling is the
Olympic sport for lazy idiots"

"The colourful papers
changes the fate of life"

"The monthly salary gets
vaporised in the odd number"

"Let me tell you something. Record
it in your brain, bro... Hey bro..."

"This is the game where a single card
can break your life, bro... Hey, bro..."

"Before these cards show their back and
kick your rear, pay heed to my words"

"You get your savings and blow them here"

"To hell with this bloody life!"

He's gone!

"This is a colourful game of gambling
which destroys even kingdoms"

He's bluffing

I'm sure it's a full house.

"This is a crooked game
which can even spark a war"

What's the bet?

You tell me.

Two thousand rupees.

"Welcome, dear Suyodhana"

"There is no question of losing
when Shakuni rolls the dice"

"Losing... Losing... Losing..."

"Play the game of gamble
in an enticing manner"

"and win the game effortlessly"

All in.

"May the negativity be neutralised"

Goddammit... I told you.
Pay up. Come on, pay up.

Pay up.

What is this amount?

Damn you!
As if you're running short of cash!

The bet was for two thousand
rupees. The bet is a bet.

Hey, I've been enraged just
losing a mere 2000 rupees.

What the heck are you
smiling for, jackass?

It is a mere 30K he has lost.

But if he had won,
he'd have reaped one and half lakh rupees.

That was so close.

Anyway, cricket betting is getting bored.
Wanna bet on a Kabaddi match?

-What do we know about Kabaddi?
-Tsk!

What the hell did we reap
despite being well-aware of cricket?

Anyway, how much amount would you
blow just because RK is paying up?

Do you even know
how much you owe him?

Let me worry about that.

How long are you going to dangle
that permit in front of him?

You didn't fetch him permit till now.
And you don't have the money you owe him.

Let's imagine what he can do to you?

Just because he acts like a fool,
doesn't mean he is one.

Exactly! That doesn't
mean he isn't either.

Anyhow, what harm can he do to me?

R.K wants to see you.

[machine whirring]

[machine beeps]

Send them in.

Does he collect scrap?

Watch out the CCTV.

Oye.

Come, Abhiram. Take a seat.

How is your luck today?

Not that great.
If you give me some time...

Come on, have I ever pressed you?

Take your time.

I can wait.

Looks great!

Is that a Rolex?

What do you mean 'Rolex'?

Guess its price.

1 lakh... 1.5 lakhs maybe?

Take a good look and guess
again. He said it's a Rolex, right?

More? Stop messing with me.

It's a knock off.

Why the hell do I need a real one?

It has to look real. That's it.

Well, let's get to the important matter.

What about the construction contract?

You were supposed to talk
to the MLC and make the deal.

What's the hold up?

He cancelled our talks
yesterday citing a meeting.

They are quite busy with the elections.

That property is tied up
in a lot of litigation.

I am trying everything.

Just give me some time.

I will get you your permit.
You have my word.

I trust you. I know you'd get it.

Why else would I let you
rack up all that credit?

Malik, what's it up to now?

Something around 5 lakhs, boss.

17 lakhs including today's amount.

Didn't realize...
We'll pay you soon.

Right?

We will pay it back, right?

Right.

No need to worry.

Just take care of that contract.

Not even that,
just get me into a meeting with them.

I'll take care of your amount.
What do you say, Malli?

I'll get it done.

You sure?

Absolutely.

Here.

Keep it.

Why?

It might remind you to resist gambling.

R... A... K... E... S... H.

Katta.

This will take time.

Here it is.

Rakesh Katta.
Age: 36.

24th April. Missing.

The case is open.

They are looking into it

What do you mean 'looking into', sir.

It's been two weeks and
there's been no information.

Madam, your case has been
transferred to Hafeezpet's station.

But I've registered the
complaint here, sir.

If you want to know the case
details, better meet the case officer.

And who's that case officer, sir?

No idea.

What does it say in the system, sir?

Like I told you, the case is open.
The investigation is taking place.

What phone is it?

Is the camera any good?

My name is Avanthi Katta.

-My brother Rakesh Katta has been missing
-Hey!

-What the hell are you doing?
-...since 2 weeks.

-[rings bell] Vidya!
-They've been making roam around

the police station since two weeks.

Stop that...

-Stop your camera. Vidya, hold her.
-I told you about the case, right sir?

[mobile playing] Stop your
camera. Vidya, hold her.

You shot it well.

I have deleted it.

-[panting]
-Good morning.

[sighs]

Sit down.

What the hell does it say?

Fishing expedition.

Could have written clearly.

What does that mean?

Huh...

Dressing like an educated
isn't enough. Use this.

Lakshmi!

Give this to the man
waiting in the car downstairs.

Go...

What's his name?

Rakesh Katta

How long?

5 years

Aren't you ashamed?

Huh...

What did he say?

They were looking into Mallikarjun

Everyone knows Mallikarjun works for me.

But the investigation didn't reach you.

How the hell can you be sure?

How can you be so sure?

Look, the election is just a month away.

And I want that power
project signed by then.

Prakash told that he's
enquire in the department.

We'd know its progress.

Why?

So he can warn me
when they are on their way to arrest me?

I told you several times not to trust him.

He is the one who got us the
file from the department.

Damodar is sure to jump the
ship before the election.

Ask Basava Raju to talk to the other two.

Are you listening to me?

-It's Basava Raju who is behind all this.
-I know that.

There must be a number, a
price. Find out what it is.

He won't listen.

Ask him one last time.

What if he declines?

He should die peacefully. It would
at least fetch us some sympathy votes.

Abhiram, check this.
It might appeal to you.

I have neither the money
nor the interest, sir.

Spit it out.

It's about that
construction permit near Kokapet.

I already told you that
wasn't going to happen.

The other party closed the deal by
sending briefcases to the MLA's house.

Your RK was late.

There's nothing we can do now.

It's just that...

How much did you take?

Nothing.
I told him I would give it a shot.

If you could just consider it again.

20 lakhs? 30?

It's not like that...

That...

Return it to him.

Devineni Mallikarjun, heard of him?

Launders cash for Gangadhar.

Runs a couple of companies
and a movie production house, sir.

Are there anyone we
know who works for him?

He moves closely with
the M.D of our news channel.

I can dig around. May I ask why?

I had one of my guys
working for him as a mole.

Looks like Gangadhar's people got to him.

Seems pretty standard
considering your feud with Gangadhar.s

The problem isn't him getting caught.

They didn't know that he worked for me.

They think he was a cop.

I don't get it.

Neither do I.

Why the hell would they
mistake him for a cop?

Find out if there are any investigations
open on Gangadhar or Mallikarjun?

It won't be easy, especially
if it is an undercover investigation.

You keep asking me for something big.

This is your chance.

[door creaks open]

Did the police question you about Rakesh?

No, they haven't.

I wasn't that close to Rakesh.

I don't know much about Rakesh either.

He kept to himself. I did the same.

Everyone keeps telling me the same thing.
So Rakesh wasn't close with anyone?

Would be better if you stayed away
from Rakesh's life and his friends

What exactly was Rakesh's job here?

Don't you know what he did for a living?

They did whatever
Mallikarjun told them to do.

Which is?

Why do you want to know?

Why are you here?

I thought you would let
it go if I warned you.

I am not leaving till you tell me.

Teja, Rahul.

I'm sure that these guys know
about whatever happened to Rakesh.

They already told me
that they know nothing.

You decide whom to believe.

Any luck finding the Donnie Brasco
(mole) among Gangdhar's men?

You find all this funny?

Ok. Let's get serious then.

Did you get any information?

What's Gangadhar's beef
with Basavaraju anyway?

What else?

They both want control over the party?

These pissing contests
will keep escalating.

Only one of them lasts in the party.

If Basava Raju gets the better of
him, then you are set for life.

My foot!

Why do you say that?

Your father and Basava Raju
have been friends since childhood.

Didn't you say that they've been hanging
around before the times they grew beard?

Mad fellow! You still don't
know anything about Basavaraju.

He'll keep people around only
until he gets his works done.

Use and throw kind.

Hey... Take your feet off the table.

How long since you met your father?

Why are we even talking about him?

Must be busy ripping someone off.

What happened?
[door bell Dings]

Abhiram Chekuri?

What's the matter?

Son of Chakradhar Chekuri?

What do you want?

We are from ASN bank

Myself Ranjit. This is Balu.

So?

Now, can we come in?

What's happening?

We are taking expensive items
from the house for valuation.

Of course, you can gladly show the receipt
of the items you bought and take them back

It is not a big issue.

Wrap this up quickly.

What the heck is this?

Where did these guys come from,
upon speaking about my father?

What's actually happening?

Why are they serving
you an eviction notice?

The house is still in my father's name.

He did some bank scam
and evaded repayment.

He was kept in prison and now
they are now, seizing the house.

How long do you have to vacate the house?

One month.

[music mutes voice]

[music mutes voice]

Waiting for someone?

No.

All alone?

I wouldn't say that.

All my brother's close
friends are right here.

You shouldn't have come here.

You shouldn't have lied to me.

Okay. Have fun.

What the hell do you want?

Rakesh.

He's not here.

What kind of work did
he do for Mallikarjun?

Oh!

So you've got to know many things.

Do you even know
the kind of things your brother did?

Why don't you tell me?

He's gone somewhere due to his ill-fate.

I am warning you for the last
time. Stop messing around.

We don't know anything.

Last and final.

[music mutes voice]

What did Basavaraju say?

He's been avoiding.

What next?

There's other news.

Basava Raju has been
diagnosed with cancer.

I already spoke with his doctor.
He's got more six months.

What's wrong?

That is what we wanted, isn't it?

Shut this classical crap
off and play NTR sir's song.

Go.

I must have bought my grandson
more than a hundred cricket bats.

You know why?

Whenever I tell him
the playtime is over,

he breaks the bat,
so that no other kids can play

if he is not playing.

If he starts to think what's has he
got to lose as he is anyway dying,

...it is very dangerous.

Well...

I heard that the cop's
sister is poking around.

That's nothing.

If we give it some time, they'll forget.

Take care of it.

I don't feel that's
necessary. I'll handle it.

I am too tired to illustrate
with another example.

Let me eat in peace.

Nice.

He's has become a botheration.

Always wants more,
no matter how much we pay him.

Come, Abhiram.

You said over the phone
that you had good news.

You set up the meet?

Come, sit.
I will finish up in two minutes.

[indistinct song playing]

You'll finish up in two minutes?

So you are giving me my money back?

Here, take this.

[laughing sarcastically]

What have I been telling
you all this time?

We lost everything.

He explain everything in detail.

Explain it to me.

Explain it to me.

How much did he lose?

Same as you Danny. 50-50.

I too lost my share.

Everyone told me not to
get into business with you.

I didn't listen.

Who's saying this about me, huh?

Then why did you get into it?

You thought you saw a great deal
but it didn't pan out.

What can we do?

[guns cock]

Sit, bugger. Just sit!

You have a long life ahead.

We can earn one and half
crore rupees anytime.

Think about it.

[chuckles]

Don't be a sucker!
You won't make it out alive.

I was asking nicely,
but you don't want to do it this way.

-I'll take my money someday.
-Really?

-But I'll recover my money for sure.
-No.

Remember this.

Sure.

I will.

I'll remember it.

Take this..

Joker!

Abhiram, come here.

Have a seat.

Tell me.

What's the good news that you
have mentioned over the phone?

That is...

What is it?

I made a deal for the permit.
If you can arrange the cash...

No meeting?

We worked it out over the phone.

How much?

10 lakhs.

It seems like a lot, but the property
comes with a lot of problems.

Also, a few others are
ready to grab it. So...

If you still think it's too high,
I'll go back and try to bring it down.

What's with all the tension?

It's just 10 lakhs.

If that's what it takes
to get it done, so be it.

Malik.

He'll take care of you. Go.

Abhiram

It will work out, right?

It will.

What's happening?

Why have you brought me here?

If you don't want to pay, that's fine.

-What the hell is all this?
-Don't utter a word.

Just listen... calmly.

Malik, who did you speak to today?

The MLA's guy.

What did they say?

He said that they already gave
that contract to someone else.

When?

A couple of weeks ago

Who said that? That's not final yet.

They told me we could still talk.

This is just to squeeze more out of you.

Malik,

You know what he was going
to do with that 10 lakhs?

I'll get my guy on the line right now.

Drop the act.

You'll gamble with it,
turn that 10 lakhs into 40-50 lakhs,

come back and tell me it didn't work out.
Then, you'd give me my money back,

take the rest and enjoy it, right? I know.

10 can turn into 20, 20 into 30,

...and sometimes maybe even a
crore, all in just one night.

He wants to take the amount
with this crappy plan.

Is he the fool or am I
the one to believe him?

Huh? What?

If you do anything to me...

Nothing will happen.

I'll chop you to pieces and
no would give a damn. Got it?

Why the sudden change in tone.
Where's all the respect gone?

[gun cocks]

Move an inch and he will
blow your brains out.

RK, I'll pay you back every penny.

Please listen to me.

[groan in pain]

Scumbag!

Are you playing around with me?

Huh!

25 lakhs.

Three days.

[inaudible]

[engine starts]

They'd kill you if you
get caught this time.

It's not my life
you should be worried about.

Get out of my way...
[gunshot]

What kind of work did
Rakesh do for Mallikarjun?

Drugs, extortion...

Whatever Mallikarjun told him.

Is Rakesh alive?

I swear, I don't know.

Did Teja and the others kill him?

Rakesh didn't have any beef with them.

Following us is a waste of time.

Prakash is the officer who's been blocking
the progress of Rakesh's case inquiry.

I got this from Teja.

Prakash?

Prakash Rao,

He too works for Mallikarjun.

That's all I know.

This is to keep you from telling
to Teja and the others about me.

If you really have nothing to do
with what happened to Rakesh,

you won't see me again.

What the hell were you thinking?

You know what's crazy?

Even when he broke my finger,

I wasn't mad that I went ahead
with that stupid plan.

I was mad that it didn't work.

How the hell would it work?

You would have lost that 10 lakhs as well.

Maybe he would've broken another finger.

Why be scared of getting wet
when I'm already freaking drowning?

If you keep up with this crappy
thoughts, you'll never make it out.

Shall I tell you something?

You keep bumming around no
matter how many times your parents

kick you out of your home

Because you know that they will end
up giving you everything anyway.

You weren't born in a slum.

If you were content with what you
had, this wouldn't have happened.

Oh, now you will tell me
what to be content with.

Just borrow some money and pay up.

It will, at least, buy you sometime.

Borrowing from some guy to pay up
to this lender becomes a circle.

And my life will be
nothing but full of debts.

What else can you do?

For the time being,
lay low out of RK's reach.

Where will you go?

If that doesn't work,
maybe lay low permanently.

Meaning?

[imitates gunshot]

Hey... Hey...

Have you lost your mind?

Chill man!

[fire crackling]

What are these, sir?

My testaments.

This is for my daughter.

This is for my son.

It's about my father.

I know he is in prison.

It is not so simple to come out.

Sir, they seized the house.
I need...

There's no money.

This time, it is very serious.

I will definitely repay you.

Just a moment... Just a moment.

What's his name?

RK.

He'll kill you.

Is that it?

Sit down.

There's nothing to be done now.

We all have to reap what we sow.

I've told you several times,

don't start anything you can't finish.

I'm very close to finding
out the undercover officer

among Gangadhar's people.

You are doing the same thing again.

I don't want anything to
do with Gangadhar now.

I can't harm him in any way either.

Let's see if that investigation
does anything to him.

If you can just talk to RK...

Abhiram.

I don't have much time left.

This is the last time you will see me.

You will find a way,

I'm sure.

Or you'll die.
That's it, right.

I'm telling you again.

Don't start anything you can't finish.

[fire crackling]

[siren wailing] [horns blaring]

[phone ringing]

Isn't he answering?

What else did you expect?

He will do what he wants anyway. Huh!

You think RK did something to him?

Or maybe he himself...

He pretended as if he'd commit suicide.

How can you fall for that?

There's no way he hurts
himself. Wanna bet?

Will you shut the heck up?

Looks like you've made
all the arrangements.

This fire is just to keep me warm.

Is there anything left to say or not?

I can see why he keeps you so close.

What's left to say?

One last thing, before I forget.

You killed Rakesh, right?

He is my henchmen, but not a cop.

Whoever that cop is,
he's still alive and still among you.

[gunshot]

[TV news] The authorities are
set to reveal more details.

They have put to rest all
rumours that it was a murder and

have confirmed that he
committed suicide with a gun.

What this has to do with Basava Raju's
ongoing feud with Gangadhar Maganti,

only time will tell.

[door creaks]

Hello...

[dialler tone rings]

Hello.

Hello, Mallikarjun

Who is this?

The guy you killed wasn't the cop.

Bastard, what the hell
are you blabbing about?

The guy you killed was Basava
Raju's henchman, not the cop.

What are you blabbing? Do you have
any idea who you are talking to?

If you don't want to talk,
I can do this directly with Gangadhar.

What do you want?

You still don't get it.

The cop is still amongst you.

I know who he is!

Tell me what you are willing
to pay. think about it.

I'll call again.

Just watch now. We've been
so worried and going to him.

He might be probably chilling and boozing.

That means we need not worry, right?

Then, why the hell are you annoying me?

Hey, you bugger off! I'll drive.

[phone ringing]

Hello

Hello

Just tell me how much you want?

I can give you 25 lakhs.

[phone vibrating]

Hey... Hey, don't hang up, idiot!

One crore. That's it.

Okay. Get the cash ready.

What if he's not home?

Where shall we go next?

We should tell the police about RK.

Don't you get it.

They'll arrest Abhiram too.

It's still better than ending up dead.

[music mutes voice]

[engine starts]

Hey, stay here.

I'll go upstairs and
check if he is there or not.

If he's not home, we are going
straight to the cops. Okay?

You stay here

Hey, that's him.

Drive! What are you staring at?

Why can't you make a phone call to him?

His phone is switched off.

Do we need this crap
at this time of night?

If I get hold of that idiot,
I'll take him to task.

[honking]
Hey... Hey...

Don't stop him.

He will again lie to us and slip away.
He won't accept the truth.

Let's see what the hell he's up to.

[motorcycle thumping]

Why are you late?

Severe traffic.

I don't give a damn!

We killed Rakesh, right?

What's all this then?

-Basava Raju is dead, right?
-Yes.

Someone from his side is doing all this.

So what now?

Look... He sent us a location.

When we get there, he will send us
one more. I know he will do that.

Let's check it out.

[clears throat] One more thing.

If he is an amateur,
let's kill him and split the cash.

What if Mallikarjun finds out?

That freaking scumbag...

He'll believe in
whatever story one narrates.

He did believe when he was told
that a cop was alive, didn't he?

Yes.

I'll take care of it.
Let's go. Bloody hell!

Just hold the phone.

Give me the directions correctly
without asking any questions.

[engine starts] Okay. Okay.

[engine starts]

[tyres screech]

Right here... Right here.

My foot!

Where the hell is the way over there?

That's what the map shows.

Don't you see how big a risk this is?

You're saying that they've already killed
someone suspecting him for a cop.

Seems like this is a dangerous quest.
Why do you want to get into this?

I'll handle it. I've got no
time. Leave from here.

-They'll be here any moment
-Let's just go.

He'll die if he wants to.
You don't need this.

Alright.
What are you going to tell them?

Do you even know who the cop is?

I'll take the money.

And I'll give them the name
of any Tom, Dick and Harry.

It's a crore.

They must've parked their
cars somewhere nearby. Go.

This is a crappy plan!

It's better to commit suicide
rather than executing this plan.

I planned everything carefully.

Nothing will go wrong.

Crap! We've been following you
for the last hour and you had no clue.

You've been going around
with that freaking toy gun.

Hey, let's go.

Let it go. Let's just leave.

Hey...

-Let's go.
-You are going with that freaking toy gun.

Come, let's leave.

Where the hell are you guys going?

[unclear voices]

Come here.

Ram, let's go

Let's go. Try to understand.
We'll be doomed if we stay with him.

How can we leave him alone and leave?

-Come, let's leave.
-Shut the hell up.

Take left.

Stop.

Come inside

How much farther?

Enough.

Open the bag.

What?

Open the bag!

Can you see? Huh?

Take a look.
Take a look.

Throw all of it out.

What?

Throw it all out.

Come and count it.

No need. I'll take it from here.

You can leave.

No need? Huh?

Are you fooling around?

I'm not moving till I get the name.

You'll just take the money back.

I told you already,
you'll get his name in the morning.

I don't know from which hole you've
been watching. Do I look like a clown?

I'm not moving an inch
without that name.

I won't tell you.

If you don't like the deal,
take it back and walk away.

[Bluetooth device] Haven't
found anything yet.

We know that there is a cop.

We can make our inquiries.
We can gather information.

If that were true, you wouldn't be here.

If you think Gangadhar will be okay
with you and Mallikarjun messing up,

then be my guest. Leave.

[Bluetooth device] Two cars.

[Bluetooth device]
Not sure how many men.

[Bluetooth device] There's no one here.

What the heck!

Douchebag, I've already told you...

Two minutes, almost there.

Hey... We need to go. Stop this.

Hey! Let's get the hell out of here.

They need that information.

I'm absolutely sure they will pay.

I'm going to try again, Akash.

What the hell are you going to try?

[vehicle approaching]

[gunshot]

Hey! Drop the gun.

You've no idea the position you're in.

Hey...

Drop it. Now!

-Put it down.
-Can't you hear?

Do you think you are a hero?

Drop it, rascal!

Rascal! [gunshots]

[gunshots]

[gunshot]

[gunshot]

Stop, rascal! Stop!

[gunshots]

Hey... Who is she?

I'll blow your brains out.

[gunshots]

Stop, rascal!

You thought you could just take
the money. Huh? I'll kill you.

[gunshot]

Come out. Just come out.

Who is the cop? Tell me.

Come on, tell me.

Stop. You..

Is she with you?

I don't know anything.

[exchange of gunfire]
Hey...

Fooling around with toy guns.

Tell her to step out now.

[exchange of gunfire]

Hey... Drop the gun. Now.

You just killed him.

What's the name of the cop?

Tell me, bastard. Speak up!

Drop the gun.

Who the hell are you?

Hands up!

Hey, what's with hands up?

[gunshots]

[gunshots]

[gunshot]

What the heck was happening here?

[gunshot]

Who are you?

Who are you?

What have you been doing over there?

My brother.

Missing for three weeks.

I've been looking for him.

What's the link between
your brother and Prakash?

Both of them work for
Devineni Mallikarajun.

Do you know who he is?

What work did he do for Mallikarjun?

Not sure.

Well...

What happened yesterday has
nothing to do with your brother.

Tell me why you are here
and I'll decide the link.

What do you do for a living?

Why?

I think you are well educated.
You look like you have a nice life.

It would be better
if you stop it here.

Just before I shot him, Prakash was
asking you something about a cop.

So, they want something from you,

...and I want something from them.

Get the equation?

It's not me we should know
about, It's about your brother.

I'll see what I can find.

What does that mean?

I know few people
who work from Mallikarjun.

I can find out some stuff.

Your friend Venkat
was in complete shock.

Barely said anything,

except for one thing before he left.

What?

Told me to never believe anything you say.

You better find something soon.

Or else, I'll give them your
name in exchange for what I want.

[door closes] [engine starts]

Would you like a cup too?

How come you're here in the morning?

Anything urgent?

I didn't get any call from the boss.

Who else did you tell besides Prakash?

About what?

When did you get the first call?

What call?
What are you talking about?

I don't like to wake up early...

fantasizing about torturing you.

But if that's what I have to do, I will.

I got the call at 9'o clock.

What are you doing?

Calling Prakash.

He might be dead or ran away with money.

Either way, why will he answer?

What did they ask for on the phone?

No hurry.

Think about it and
give me every detail.

Rakesh is not the cop.

Did he actually say Rakesh?

It wasn't the police who was killed.

Just someone who worked for Basava Raju.

He knows who the police is.

Pay him and he will give us the name.

And?

Any delay, he would
call Gangadhar directly.

Any thoughts and why he called you and
not someone else?

We lost the money.

We don't know when does he calls again.

If he does,

you better be right beside
me holding that phone.

Okay?

Hand me that phone.

[groans out of pain]

I don't know what he is bluffing about.

But he's as big a fool as you.

[groans out of pain]

If he knew the value of what he knows,

he would have asked
for more than a crore.

Crazy bastard!

[mobile phone rings]

Hello Bhanu!
I need some cash urgently.

Last time...

I'll definitely pay it back
this time. That's sure.

[door bell rings]

I'll call you back.

[door bell rings]

[exhales deeply]

-Abhiram?
-Yes!

We need to talk...

about Akash.

Oh! Please come in.

Did you find anything?

I am still unable to process it.

Been calling everyone we
know since he's gone missing.

No one has a clue.

Even his parents.

Don't stop. Continue.

Please you say about this.

What could have happened to Akash?

You really don't know?

No. But why are you asking me?

[chuckles]

How long have you known Akash?

We are friends since childhood.

Oh, friends!

His parents told me that he left the house
after some fight with them two weeks ago.

Did he tell you anything about that?

No.

But...

It's pretty common for him!

He leaves the house after a fight, vanish
for a couple of weeks and avoid everyone.

Even he doesn't contact me.

Oh!

So this has happened before?

Yeah.

They told me that he was into
gambling and that sort of stuff.

You did this with him?
Where would you go?

I don't know
why they said that.

But Akash used to stay away
from any illegal activity.

Used to stay away?

I mean, stays away.

Did he fight with anyone recently?

Nothing like that.

Did he have a fight with you?

No. Why are you asking?

Where were you on the 24th night?

Around what time?

Tell me from the evening.

I was out working till about 7, 7:30.

Then came back home and
I didn't go anyway later.

Oh! Were you alone?

Yes, alone.

Didn't you speak to Akash after that?

No!

Your call records show many
missed calls from Akash to you.

Why did he call?

Even, I have no idea.

I slept that night as I
wasn't feeling well.

When I called him back later,
his phone was switched off.

How do you explain the wounds?

What?

Your wounds.

Oh, this. Fell down the stairs.

The stairs?

I saw that and thought
someone beat you up.

When did you fall?

Yesterday.

Planning some trip?

Nothing! Just some old clothes and
I planned to donate them to charity.

Aren't you going to
the office, these days?

Yeah. With the fall and everything.

But you fell yesterday.

Got information that you
haven't been to office in a week.

Why are you so curious about my office?

Look Abhiram,
this is your last chance to speak freely.

I'm speaking freely.

Won't be the same after I arrest you.

How can you arrest me with
out committing any wrong?

[sighs]

Fine.

Let's talk when I come back to arrest you.

I'll be waiting.

We don't know for sure if Basava Raju
was telling the truth about Rakesh.

Let's forget it then.

Let's forget!

What's the worst that could happen?

They would arrest me,

I'll eventually come out.

By then,

The elections, the power project...

all of it will go down the drain.

First Rakesh, then his sister,

Basava Raju and now this guy.

Even once, did you feel that
things were dealt in a smooth way?

You will be tolerated
until you usefulness

and the mess you create are in balance.

Once it does, I'll find someone else.

Hey, stop.

Where are you going?

Why are you here?

-You said you would enquire about Rakesh?
-No I didn't.

What does that mean?

What happened before I arrived that night?

What the guarantee that
Rakesh wasn't related to that?

I already told you that he isn't related.

What more do you want?

Prakash was my last link to Rakesh.

...and I shot and killed
him to save you.

Will you calm down?

You only shot him
after he pointed the gun at you.

Even then you had your eyes closed when
you emptied the whole bloody magazine.

It was a miracle you missed me.

This time I'll be pointing
at you with my eyes open.

Looks like all of this
comes naturally to you.

Naturally? You think I'm
enjoying any of this.

Stop walking away.

I enquired about you.

So you're a journalist.

-How were you involved with Prakash?
-Yes, I'm a journalist.

Why are you snooping around?

What do you want from me?

You told me you would
find out about Rakesh.

Abhiram, the journalist.

Brother, is that him?

What will you do about Rakesh?

Tell me, I'm not letting you go.

They are after me.

So what?

-They will be after you too.
-Tell me.

Why do I care?

[crowd chattering in market]

Who's that girl?

Girlfriend?

[chuckles]

Doesn't look like it.

Seems she was chasing
you like my guys did.

How much do you owe her?

Did you deceive her?

Forget it.
None of my business.

What's this?
taking it somewhere?

Let's see what we have here.

How much is this, huh?

50?

How long will this last?

Once this runs out,
you find some kind, innocent,

good person like me
and you'll trouble him, right?

What else do we have?

What's this?

A real piece?

Idiot!

Where will the money come from, huh?

Your rich father is in jail,

Your rich friend is missing,

Your rich Basava Raju,

committed a suicide.

And the bank just seized your house.

What do I do with you now?

Say something idiot or
else I'll shoot you.

What will I get if I kill you, huh?

What happened? Why so silent?

You keeping yelling
continuously like a duck.

You say you everyone.

You have new plans with you.

Idiot!

If it was just about the
money I wouldn't bother.

But you know...

How much I wanted the
life of a legit businessman.

You hit me on my weakness.

No matter what the price
is, I won't spare you.

One crore.

[chuckles]

Hey Malik,

Order some coffee.

[sighs]

A cop who's working
undercover, a girl and you are the hero.

I have listened many
film stories like this.

How much more of a fool
will you make of me?

It's not a film, moron.

Let me go and I'll get you one crore.

Sure?

Sure!

Ok, then. Malik, make the call.

Where's R.K?

Ask him to come out.

Who are you?

Hey, I'm a police.

It's me.

You bastard, where's Prakash?

Where's the money?

Who's Prakash?

No one showed up.

You still want the name of the cop?

Yes.

-Call him!
-Hey.

We already spoke to C.I, get out now.

Who's cares about C.I? Call him.

Same rate. One crore.

There's no R.K here.
No one is allowed here.

Who are you allow me?

Call him.

-Out! Don't...
-Hey!

-Hey!
-Hey!

This time... [gun shots]

Is this your doing?

Idiot!

Not now.

Put it down.

I'm R.K.

Shall we?

What?

Afraid it was R.K?

He won't be this tender with you.

What do you want?

What the hell do you mean?

"Save me, they're going to kill me".
These were the words you said to me.

You promised me to give
information about Akash.

Me and Akash
owed a lot of money to R.K.

We couldn't pay...
-Hey!

first, you stop lying.

It's clear to me that your issue with R.K
has nothing to do with Akash.

Tell me the truth.

You can see what R.K has done to me.

I thought he did the same to Akash.

Who will you believe?
Me, the journalist or R.K, the gangster.

You saved me and the girl.

That's not good enough?

By the way, who's the girl?

Try to find out.

Why are you even in the hospital?

You are not hurt that bad.

Listen,

R.K is going to be out
on bail in a couple of days.

You have time till you're discharge
to tell me everything.

-Or else...
-Or else,

You don't have any
proof to arrest me.

Further, there won't be any arrests.

I'll just tell R.K where you are
and he will take care of the rest.

I should've killed
Abhiram when I had the chance.

I'm getting really soft in
my old age don't you think?

Correct?

Have some tea.

Rascal!

But, he helped in one thing.

Call our Mallikarjun.
There's a deal to discuss.

[distant dog barking]

Tell me.

I don't know anything.

Is that money?

I won't take it.

Are you out of your mind?

Will you tell me, or...

You are not going to shoot me.

What now?

You are right.

I can't shoot you.

But I can tell Mallikarjun
who you are.

Told him only you can finalize the deal.

He's supposed to call at 8.

Let's see.

[mobile phone vibrating]

Are we done waiting?

Is he here?

Yes, Go on.

Damn! It's already
late. Let's get this done.

At any point if I get the
doubt that you're lying...

Ok. I can't be sure it was your brother,

but Basava Raju had someone working
for him among Mallikarjuna's men.

He was caught, killed.

How do you know all this?

Slow it down.

Before we talk numbers I have to
be sure you know what we want.

We can find the cop ourselves,
we don't need your help.

Even through the phone I can
sense you pissing your pants.

Are you scared?

How long have you been sitting by
the phone, waiting for my call?

Gangadhar still wants
to win the election right?

Tell them you'll give them the name of the
cop in exchange for information on Rakesh.

I don't know about the police.

That didn't bother you
when you were doing it for the money?

Fine. Say it works.

What then?

What do you think?

Huh, do you know
how crazy you sound?

It's not as easy as you threatened
a simple guy like me with a gun.

Any idea how lucky
you're being still alive?

Lucky my foot.
I don't care if I die.

The moment you say Rakesh,
they kill you and your family.

So we just keep running and
hiding all our lives.

Who's the other guy that's
been calling? Do you know him?

How many people
do I have to cut deals with?

Don't worry about him.

Make the deal with me.

I'll take care of him.

How much?

5 crores.

All of this is because
they thought Rakesh was the cop.

Because of my actions, they're
looking for someone else now.

They don't care about you any more.

Oh, let me just call and apologise that...

we weren't the persons supposed to kill.

I'm not letting this go.

Don't mind me for saying this,

You must know by now the kinds of things
Rakesh must've done for Mallikarjun.

So, Rakesh deserves this? Is it?

[sighs]

Did your friend feel the same way
about you when he came for you.

That you deserved it.

Make the call.

The other guy only asked for
one crore. I'll talk to him.

I just said that I'll take care of him.

Why are you haggling
with me over 5 crores?

Bloody haggling!

Don't like it?

Maybe I'll just call the
police and ask him to make a run for it.

Just one call.

Did you say something?

Ok.

When and Where?

I'll call with the details.

Get the amount ready.

Hey Malik,

Told you Abhiram will be useful someday.

[mobile phone vibrating]

[mobile phone vibrating]

-Hello!
-Hello!

Mallikarjun?

He's here. Talk.

And you are?

You took the money,
didn't hold up your end.

Who took the money?

No one showed up at the exchange.

What now?

Let's make a new deal.

This turn, it's not money...

You idiot!

Are you making fun?

We just spoke to another person.
How many of you are there?

What's wrong?

R.K called them already.

So, why do we care?

We don't want money.

Easier to deal with us right?

They don't trust me.

They think I stole the one crore.

I'm confident that you'll speak
some nonsense and work it out.

We can't do anything
till R.K makes the deal.

So we just wait?

Why don't you just give yourself up?

You can't run forever.

Listen to me.

Wow. Superb.

I was threatening you.

You were not listening to that and on top
of that, you were telling me what to do?

Fine. Please tell me
what I can do for you.

Stop the deal with Mallikarjun.

Don't dare ton involve in this.

You had your chance, but wasted it.

It's my turn now.

Let me do it in peace.

Hey, you do not know what they want.

You gave me the wrong name,
didn't you?

I thought as much.

So, I don't know the
name of the officer.

Makes no difference.

They don't know either.

I keep telling you,
just has to seem real.

Even if it isn't

Do you have any idea
whom you're dealing with?

I was out of my mind to start all this.

They don't leave anyone.

Why do you bother about that?

Oh!

They'll get me and
I'll lead them to you.

Is that it?

Yes.

All things apart,
consider for a moment,

If we get a chance to get our hands
on 5 crores would we just let it go?

You silly idiot! You asked for 5 crores?

See, of all the things i said,
all you heard was 5 crores.

I'll call them and tell them everything.

You?

You'll give him the information for free?

Tell me, is there anyone in your life,
who you haven't blackmailed for money?

-I want 5 crores.
-Don't worry!

No problem.

Don't worry. I'll keep
your name out of it.

Even...

how can I let someone else get
to you when I'm right here.

Told you, Told you he would call back

Hello!

Go on.

He doesn't know the name.

It's waste of giving five crores to him.

Ok. You already tool one
crore. Then you tell us the name.

I already said you,
Prakash didn't bring the money.

[sighs]

But you said no one showed up.

What did you do to Prakash?

Ok. Leave it then.

If you were in my shoes, would you
believe anything you're saying.

There's only one way
that I would believe you.

Which is?

Face me.

Come to the exchange.

I'll pay whoever
gives me the right name.

You'll kill both of us.

99 percent.

He's willing to take his chance
on the other one percent.

What do you say?

Ok.

When and where?

What did he say?

We do this face to face.

Fantastic.

Let's go.

I Won't let you slip away this time.

Give me the keys.

I'm going because I have a plan.

What will you do?

Let's go.

One last phone call.

[mobile phone vibrating]

-Hello!
-Daniel?

Yes!

How much did R.K cheat you out of?

1.5 crore?

Who the hell are you, idiot?

Do you want payback or not?

I'll take care of him.

I don't need your help.

You might get him, but I'm offering
you 5 crores and R.K in one go.

And why do I get this bumper offer?

It's not for free, there's a price.

I'll need your men and a 20 percent cut.

You think such worst ideas will work?

R.K plus 5 crores.

You can't win the lottery
if you don't buy the ticket.

Ok, go on.

You really don't know
the identity of the police?

Did you ever try to find out?

No point trying.

It's impossible.

Isn't this better anyway?

We get what we want and we give
them the name of some gang person.

Even the cop remains safe.

So this is how you justify
every wrong thing you do?

How are any different from R.K, Prakash?

Did I say I was?

Even you are the same,
after getting into this.

Tell me something,

When all this is over, will you forget
everything and get on with your MBA?

So you looked into my life.

I would rather do something about my
present than worry about my future.

I can't just forget his murder.

Can you?

After what happened to your friend.

What?

You don't want to do
anything about your friend?

All of us are responsible
for our own fate.

I don't blame anyone else
for what's happening to me.

What does it mean? [tires screeching]

Who is that?

Works for Gangadhar. Don't know the name.

What's happening?

What is he waiting for?

Are we doing this or what?

Where's the money?

We wait.

Not everyone's here.

I'm here.

Who else do you need?

The guy who the gave
the information to you.

Damn!

That idiot won't come here.

Look around you,

Is he dare enough to walk
into the middle of this?

Will see.

What will you see?

We made the deal and now you
are involving other person.

Huh?

Give me the money and take the name.

It's getting late, lets wrap this.

He said you are unaware about police.

No one gets anything
till I'm absolutely sure.

Fine!

Make your deal with him.

I'm going, I'm going.

What's now?

That Abhiram is irritating me.

I'm going to...

There you are. That's perfect timing.

Let's not waste time.

You tell me what you know,
you do the same.

I'll decide what you get.

Why do you decide?

Cool down.

What's going on here?

Who are you?

Why are you here?

Who called me?

You just show up listening to a call?

Huh?

Who the hell called you?

We don't have any rivalry.

[gunshots]

[exchange of gunfire]

Shankar, get the bag.

Why did you stop?

Thinking How the hell are you still alive?

What the hell were you thinking?

Ok. It's up to you.

R.K is gone,

What next?

Hello, it's me.

Come to the location I
sent you, I'll surrender.

I just need one thing from you and
I'll say you everything you want.

Now or never.

Last chance.

It's up to you.

Drive to this location.

Is he coming?

[engine starts]

Should we till wait?

He'll be here.

What do you plan on doing?

-It's not worth it.
-What?

What's this nonsense again?

It you aren't interested,
you can leave, I'll take it from here.

You'll forget everything soon enough.

Stop this now.

Hey, did you make the call or not?

They will kill you for sure.
It's only a matter of time.

I'm not going to ask about Rakesh.

Say that again!

I got the money I wished for.

No reason to risk all this.

I'll give them a random
name and I'll get out of this.

They are not Gangadhara's men.

They're police men.

Don't shoot.

It's for your own good.

-Who are you to say me?
-Hey! Drop the gun.

Drop it.

Sir, Sir, She's been
stalking me for a week.

-She won't let me...
-Hey!

Stop your acting.

You told me that you would confess.

Confess to what?

I am scared that She would
kill me. So I called you.

Who the hell is this girl?

Apparently her brother is missing.

She thinks I know something about that.

What are of you thinking of me?

Someone keeps trying to kill you,

and I show up and save you,
like your own personal bodyguard.

Please just tell me the truth.

What's happening here?

I am telling you the truth. Trust me.

[exhales deeply]

You tell me.

Does it take long to get bail
for illegal possession?

So, is he telling the truth?

At least now will you tell me
what happened to Akash?

[exhales deeply]

Record your statement at the station.

I'm not getting the
evidence to arrest you.

Or else...

Why don't you just die early?

What happened to your hand?

Nothing. A small scrape.

How much longer?

It will take time.

Basava Raju is no more.
How will you get out?

Forget that.

Why are you here after so long?

I'm planning to leave this place.

Where to?

Leaving or running away?

An officer Shankar told me everything.

You really don't know
what happened to Akash?

Why bring that up now?

I don't know how much
longer you stay here.

Not sure I'll see you again.

[chuckles]

Heard that you went to
seek money from Basava Raju

after taking loan from someone else.

Still haven't stopped gambling?

You're behind bars and interrogating me?

I don't need a lecture from you.

So you're running away then.

The bag in the trunk is either empty
or filled with cash.

If it was empty you wouldn't have
had the time to make this stop.

So, what's the loot?

This is my eighth time in prison.

You know how they got me this time?

I surrendered.

I'm telling you this so you don't
throw away the next 30 years.

Police found the jeep.

Not sure if they checked the CCTV footage.

They must have dumped
the bodies elsewhere.

This is Prakash's jeep.

This,
This one.

Registered to Venkat Kannuri,

Excellence apartments,
New Boiguda, Hyderabad.

[mobile phone ringing]

Hello!

Ram they know about us.

They are at my house.

They almost got me.

I don't know what else to
do, I'm going to the police

Stay where you are. I'm coming to you.

[coughs]

Goddamn, they almost got me.

Would have killed me, if they got me.

What the crap, man?

How the hell did they
find out after so long?

You should have listened to me.

We should have surrendered back then.

Even now, I don't see any other
way. We need to go to the police.

How many times do I tell you?

It's me who killed the cop, not you.

That was self defence.

But who the hell started all this?

I kept asking you guys to leave.

I have no intention of
ending up like Akash.

I was asking you leave.
Who asked you to come there?

Hey, he was trying to help you.

I warned him not to go out with
you. But he wouldn't listen.

He was trying to protect you and
I was doing the same for him.

I will split it with you.

Enough to start a new life.

What's this?

You idiot!

So you want me to run away, like you?

Bastard!

Do you think everyone is as
alone and miserable as you?

Just take the money.

So you want me
to keep running all my life?

Take the money.

I'm going to the police.

I don't want anything to do
with this any more. I'm leaving.

You go your way.
Let me go to the police.

Please listen.

Why can't you just take the bloody money!

If Akash was in my position he
wouldn't believe that you would kill.

But Now You like a murderer for sure.

Bloody money!

[mobile phone vibrating]

How far will you run?

I've changed my mind.
It's time to meet.

Why now?

You have the money,

As R.K would become
problem, you eliminated him.

What else do you want?

You will get your money back
and the name of the police.

So, you spoke to Venkat?

Is fear finally creeping in?

Not fear.

I am not giving anything up for free.

What do you want?

Who killed Rakesh?

why do you need that?

Why do you care?

Why do I get the feeling
that you know absolutely nothing.

How angry is Gangadhar
with you these days?

Why are you eager about Rakesh?

Tell me who killed him,

I'll give you the name of the officer.

I killed him.

So what?

Come and surrender.

How do you know his sister?

Is she with you?

Come and find out.

Was that him?

What did he say?

He took the money, is he talking?

What the hell are you
staring at, say something,

It's five crores. Just say something.

There's nothing I can do for
you if both of you refuse to talk.

Where did you get the gun?

Fine,

I'll take care of the gun.

Let's say you did this because
you were frustrated about your brother.

I suggest you put this behind you
and go back to your normal life.

The moment I let you go, you will
go back to chasing Abhiram, right?

Damn right

How the hell did your paths cross?

You saw what he did to you, right?

He is going to die now and then.

Better stay away from him.

[mobile phone vibrating]

If she wasn't here, I wouldn't trusted
a word coming out of your mouth.

What the hell were the
two of you thinking?

His name is Jayant, works for Gangadhar.
He's the one who came to your house.

You were planning to run away
with the money right?

What happened?

Will you arrest him if he confesses
to what he did?

An undercover investigation
involving the party leaders,

I can't help it.

[scoffs] Thought as much.

What about you?

You might get a chance to kill him.

Hey, what are you talking?

You do realize there's a police
standing in front of you right?

If you can't help it, you better leave.

He'll here at any moment.

Have you gone insane?

I'll arrest both of you.

If you have to arrest someone,
it should be him, not us.

Do what feels right to you.

What the hell are you doing?

Avanti, don't do it.

I won't let you arrest me.

If you want me to stop,
you have to shoot.

Either me or them.

You know the terms.

I will give you the name,
you surrender.

You have no idea who the cop is.

Then why come all the way here?

Let me talk to Avanti.

There's nothing to say.

Avanti, wait.

Avanti, listen to me!

Why do they think Rakesh is the police?

The cop is still alive.

I know who he is.

What are you going to tell them?

You don't know the name.

What difference does it make?

-You know who the police is?
-They don't know either.

Works for Gangadhar,
don't know the name.

I don't think you know anything.

Who killed Rakesh?

I did.

You ran away with the money.
Didn't give me the name

I will give it back.
You surrender

There's only one way I'll believe you.

Let's do this face to face.

Stop!

Why did you shoot him?

Why would he kill one of his own?

You know I have no idea
who the cop is.

What did you want to say to Avanti?

I don't think of that. I don't care.

Still don't get it?

He is the cop.

Is this true?

Does it matter now?

I killed Rakesh.

Do what you have to.

Why Rakesh?

They found out about the investigation.

They started to look for the officer.

Only way to stop them was to kill him.

So we framed Rakesh.

It could have been anyone.

Had it not been him, someone else
would be standing in your place.

You are not wrong
in wanting to kill me.

Avanti...give me the gun.

All this bloodshed is in the name of duty?

What will you achieve
when you finally arrest Gangadhar?

Who cares about justice if
all that's left is a graveyard?

What happened to Akash...

It's...

If it's the forgiveness you want,

...you're not going to get it.

You won't find it.

Hmm,

Go on!

It was Prakash all along.

Hired a couple of amateurs
to threaten Mallikarjun.

And the money?

Found it with him.

They had a fight over their share and...

Prakash ended up killing
Bharani and some other guy.

So, there's no cop.

Rakesh!

I was warning you not to trust Prakash.

Anyway, Whatever happened
is happened. leave it.

He did make clowns out of you, didn't he?

[chuckles]

Look,

I am trying to give this up too.

No more worries.

Work must be done silently.

These things happen.

Like speed breakers on a highway.

We keep doing
what we keep doing.

Good work.

Did the cover up go smoothly?

Yes sir!

Jayant died in a car accident.

All the records are in place.

Your next posting
will be in the North East.

It's risky if they
are in contact with you.

Let them in.

Sir, about the follow up?

You know how this works.

He won the election.

We can't touch Gangadhar now.

We have to wait for the right time.

-But sir...
-We are done here.

We appreciate your work.

You can leave now.
