All language subtitles for Agni (2024)_track3_[eng]

We are the worshippers
of the God of Fire.

We have never feared sacrifice.

We risk our lives

to put out all fires.

You may forget us,
but remember:

"Those who live among flames
become immortal."

O God of Fire, show us the right path
and forgive all our sins.

We bow before You.

Take God's blessings.

Take God's blessings.

Riya, these reports must be
submitted today. Go.

Take God's blessings.

We had an emergency call, but when
we got there, we realised it was a hoax.

"Those who live among flames
become immortal."

Reply. Parel Fire Station.

Curry in a Hurry restaurant on fire.
Send two engines.

Roger!

A fire has broken out!
Curry in a Hurry restaurant.

Senapati Bapat Marg,
Lower Parel.

Where's Vitthal sir?

His shift ended an hour ago.
He must be at home.

A fire has broken out!

Senapati Bapat Marg.

Curry in a Hurry restaurant.

Hello!

It's Nakul, from the station.

He's not at home.

I called him on his mobile.
It's out of range.

What do you want me to do?

Ma'am, it's urgent.
A fire has broken out.

I'll tell him to call
when he gets home.

- Call Jazz.
- His phone is out of reach too. Let's go.

O God! Protect Vitthal
and keep him safe.

Shift over and the booze is over too!

Come home with me.
Rukmini has made fish fry.

No, sir. I have a date with Avni.

Just get married! Stop all this
English-style dating.

Stop!

Stop there!

- Your name?
- Vitthal.

Vitthal what? What comes
after that?

Elephant? Horse? Kala Ghoda?
Flora Fountain?

Just tell me your full name.

Vitthal Rao Dhonduba Surve.

Village: Murud-Janjira.
District: Raigad.

Local address: Parel Fire station.
1st floor. Room no. 32.

Mumbai 400014.

AP00CT00224

Need other ID card numbers too?

- You making fun of me?
- Why would I do that?

Go, stop up ahead.

Sir, he's the Parel Fire Station chief.

So? Does that mean
he can be rude?

When was I rude? I answered all
your questions.

I haven't been home for two days.

I put out three fires.
I saved five lives.

Pulled a puppy out of a gutter.
After my shift, I got a little tipsy.

Your duty is serious duty.

I've been wanting to take a dump
for an hour.

But if I go now, you people would say
cops shirk their duty.

Why would we say that?

Yeah, why? My brother-in-law
is a cop.

I know just how hard
you cops work.

Hard work is not for him,
he shoots people on a whim.

Samit Sawant is his brother-in-law.

- You mean Supercop Samit Sawant?
- Yes!

You should've asked Mr. Sawant
to get you a driver for the bike.

You have a licence? Or are you using
Samit Sawant's?

Here!

Just wait here.

Why bring up Samit's name?

I thought he'd let us off the hook.
But he's a pain in the neck.

Isn't that our FB47?

- Damn it! It was on silent.
- My mobile was switched off.

Jump on.

Get out of the way! Move!

Where's he going? Stop!

Yes, hello. I'm with Vitthal sir.

We just passed Tulsi Pipe Road.

Your brakes are slow.
Drive carefully.

The fire is spreading fast.

We'll need additional fire
attack teams.

Get four teams in position.
Attack from the south. Step on it!

Hey, Mr. Sandals!

The sole is split.

I'm lending it to you since we have
the same shoe size. And you moan!

- Wear your sandals then.
- Okay!

- Who's inside?
- Shinde, Karkhanis, Salunkhe.

Your unit. And my unit.
Half of Mumbai is in there.

- It's a monster blaze.
- Let's go.

- It'll burst into flames, 100%.
- 500 degrees for sure.

- 1000 degrees.
- Even higher.

If we survive, we'll drink together.

- We'll have that drink.
- For sure!

Come on!

- Get everyone out.
- Increase the water pressure.

This cylinder is empty!

Let me check.

Abdul!

Check the pipeline.

Somebody! Help me!

Somebody! Please help us.

Someone's trapped inside.
Get the extinguisher.

- The extinguisher!
- Hurry!

There's no water.

We need more water!

Hurry!

Come here.

Jazz, don't open the door.

Jazz, jump!

Evacuate the building immediately!

Evacuate the building immediately!

Get everyone out. Fast.

Evacuate the building immediately.

Move it!

- Please somebody save.
- Out! Move, move.

Jazz. Avni. Out.

Out, everyone.

That's enough. Stop!

Give her an injection.

You fought the fire so bravely today.

Today? Aren't we brave every day?

The big boss is inside.
Interview him.

It didn't seem like a normal fire, sir.

We can tell the temperature at once.

But there was something odd here.
Suddenly the flames turned blue.

Never seen that before.
Most unusual.

- When did the fire start?
- 3 or 4 hours ago.

Sir! Sir!

- What is it?
- Help my family.

Hello.

- Where are you?
- Save us.

We're on the second floor.

Stay there. We're on our way.
Don't worry.

Take him away.

Careful. The God of Fire seems furious.

We must calm the Lord.

Pay our respects and keep going.

- Up!
- Come on. Move!

Move, move, move!

We're here. Please save us.

Help!

Please help!

Stay there. We're on our way.

Breaking down the door will take time.
Let's find another way in.

Increase the water pressure now!

Don't worry, we're right here.

Careful, sir.

Put your foot over there.

Come, child. Don't look down.
Look straight ahead.

- Grab her hand.
- Don't look down.

Come.

Don't be scared, child.

Bravo!

Ruku, no excuses!

You must come to the party.

Of course! It's your housewarming.
How could I possibly forget?

Samit made it a point

to tell Vitthal not to make
any excuses this time.

Do you think my brother
would say that?

Amya. Amya.

He's home. Speak later.

Your father was a superhero today.

Just like a movie superhero.

I jumped into the fire and saved
two children.

The kids were just like you.

I was the last man out.

Like your heroes - in slow motion!

But I ran out. Or my backside
would've caught fire.

- Everyone clapped loudly.
- Baba, stop praising yourself.

Have a bath. You're stinking!

Stinking? Let go of that mobile.

Now study.

- Hey, Rukme.
- Yes?

I jumped into the fire
and saved many lives.

Everyone took pictures of me.
But my son? He says I stink.

No more phone.
Brush your teeth and go to bed.

Sure he's my son?

- Why must you say such things?
- What else can I say?

Do you see how other kids behave?

When they see their fathers,
they hug them.

Their fathers have goodies for them.

Have you even bought Amya
a toffee?

They were applauding my bravery
and you talk about toffees!

Did you fill out Amya's passport form?

Vitthal Rao!

There was an emergency today.
Tomorrow...

So no emergency tomorrow?

There's still time for the school trip.

There's no fire on.
What's the hurry?

You keep saying "tomorrow".
Six weeks have gone by.

Okay, I'll fast track it.

I was only reminding you.

Then don't complain your son
doesn't look up to you.

He never will.
He worships his cop uncle.

It's 3 degrees in Matheran.
Shall I take time off?

Listen.

Samya has bought a new house.

Amazing! The Inspector's business
is thriving.

Business? What business?

Samit has worked hard to get
where he is.

Sure! Your brother is a real
hard worker.

Your life starts with Amya,
and ends with Samya.

And yours?

"Hello. Fire brigade!"

Hurry, shower.

Or you'll be rushing off covered
in soap to deal with an emergency.

Give me two minutes.

Food's ready. Let's eat
when you're done.

Sir!

Jai Hind.

Congratulations! Sir, look at this
amazing photo.

Nav Dainik, sir.
Page 14.

You prefer the front page?

Sir, at least our names are
in the papers.

And in really fine print.

Next time I'll call the BBC.

- They admire firemen in the West.
- At least your names are spelt right.

They misspelt my name
and called me Mr. Parrot.

I'll paint my beak red
and you can buy me a guava.

Well, Mr. Parrot?

Now he's started.

Have some respect
for your elders.

Hey, Mr. Parrot!

- Chief Mishra sent this.
- What is it?

A list of Mumbai's "Unsafe and
dangerous buildings".

- This list gets longer every year.
- Yes, sir.

I'll look into it.

Watch him run!
The ghost in a loincloth

Hide under a sheet.
Watch him run!

The ghost in a loincloth

Sir, buy it. Take it.

Take it. Choocha.

Are you insulting me?

It's not an insult, sir.
"Choocha" is a famous film character.

I don't want it.
You can keep your Choocha.

Take it, sir. Or Bholi Panjaban
will be offended.

Who is she?

The bad girl, sir.

Stop them! They've shot my boss.

Sir...

The judge said to the criminal:

"You terrified your wife,
so she's been silent for 10 years."

The criminal: "Sir, I..."
Judge: "Just tell me how you did it."

Why are you laughing? You lowlife.

Kadam, continue.

Sir, he sells masks at traffic lights.

- What masks?
- Masks of the rich and famous.

I've gunned down 24 criminals.

If you're my 25th -
that's my silver jubilee!

Then I'll be famous.
Will you sell my mask too?

Sir, I mean...

Sir, he didn't shoot.
He was the decoy.

We caught him running
on the railway bridge.

Who is "we"?

Kamble.

- You can run?
- Yes, sir.

You can run, Kamble?
Full marathon?

Your belly tells another story.

But running is good.

Running boosts your stamina
and makes the family happy.

A drink at night,
sweets to bite.

Kadam, go on.

Kamble was dragging him back
when he tried to escape.

Then Bhosle hit him from behind.

So he was hit?

No, sir. Kamble was hit.

Did you duck? Rascal!
Then what?

He tried jumping off the bridge.

One minute. From what height?

About 3 feet, sir.

Kennedy Bridge is thirty feet high.

Not the Kennedy Bridge, sir,
I mean the railway bridge.

Kadam, think again.

Right, sir. He tried to jump off
the Kennedy Bridge. 30 feet.

What happens when someone jumps
from 30 feet?

- His legs are broken.
- One leg? Or both?

Depends on how he lands.

You scum!

Sir, pull me up.

Sir, pull me up.

Now do you remember who shot
Gambhir Jain?

No, sir.

Sonny, you have three seconds,

or three months bedrest.
1, 2...

Amit Naik, sir.

Cover his face.

Vitthal sir's blood pressure
will go through the roof.

Done. Let's start our eating Olympics.

Is it your birthday?

We're celebrating sir's name
in the papers.

Did you know the Chief saw
a blue film?

Yeah! Which one?

You fools. Not a blue film,
he saw a blue flame!

You're having fun.

Eat something with us.

- Parab sir, join us.
- Not today. I'm fasting.

- Are you allowed to eat a banana?
- A sweet potato?

No way.

Today's duties.

Cleaning duty:

Priya.

Ronak.

Abdul.

Abdul!

Kartik, don't look so happy.

You'll clean the gutters.

School drill - Vinod and Surya.

Which school, sir?

- What difference does it make?
- Robert Jefferson High School.

Jefferson?

That's Amya's school. So Vitthal sir
is the man for the job.

Right! Amya will feel proud in front
of his school.

Then in Bachchan style, he'll say:
"My father is a Chief!"

And when your son grows up,
draw a tattoo on his arm:

"My father is a torch but
the battery's dead."

Sit!

Major fire at Arvind Garment Factory,
Vikhroli.

We'll get there faster via
Tulsi Pipe Road.

Why are you turning left?

- Don't go straight. You'll get stuck.
- The map shows this is faster.

Maps are useless in Mumbai traffic.

Want to bet?

Go straight!

The garment factory was full of plastic.
Check it out.

Keep the cooling going.

- Send a "stop" message.
- I'll write the report.

Look!

- Why bother coming now?
- Welcome them!

I got stuck in a wedding enroute.

- Without her?
- Someone else's wedding, sir.

While we're still stuck
in our marriages!

- You say anything!
- Promise.

So did you enjoy the tour
of our station?

Yes!

Did you understand everything?

Yes!

So, when a fire breaks out,
who do we call?

God!

Yes. But who do we call
on earth?

- The Fire Brigade.
- Correct.

And if a building collapses?

The police?

No, not the police. Only Fire Brigade.

If someone falls into a manhole,

or if there's a fallen tree, or birds
stuck on a wire -

or an oil spill on the road,
a gas leak -

the solution to all problems:
Dial 101. The Fire Brigade.

- Increase the flames!
- Sir, they're already high.

Do it!

Do you know a fireman's favourite
word?

- No.
- Crazy! "Pagal."

"Pa-Ga-L" stands for: Water, gas, light.

Whenever you leave the house,
make sure they're switched off.

Yes, sir.

- So what'll you tell your parents?
- "Pagal!"

Very good! Now look over there.

Mr. Vitthal will show you
the rescue drill.

Imagine a tall building is on fire.

Fire is spreading rapidly.

People are trapped.
The lift can't be used.

In this situation,
a firefighter risks his own life

and carries people down the ladder.

Mr. Vitthal is giving us
a demonstration.

It's not as easy as it looks.

Your father is a real hero!

The real hero is my uncle Samit.

If he shakes your hand,
you'll need a cast.

He's that strong?

Are you okay, sir?

There's no strength in your lungs.

Come.

- Pass? Or fail?
- Keep trying.

Why are you laughing? You need to look
after yourself.

Or your wife will be collecting
a hero's medal in your place.

Hello, madam! Where to?

Avni Purohit. Investigative Officer,
D.O.F.

D.O.F.?

Department of Fire.

Let me through.

You should've said so.

Who knows what D.O.F. means.

Focus on your work.

What's this?

The blueprint shows a fire exit here.
And they've set up a cosy corner.

- Where's the manager?
- Manager!

Manager!

Oi! Here!

I'll call you later.

- Yes, madam?
- What's this?

A table for 5 at a fire exit?

Will people fly out
in an emergency?

You stuff 150 people in a space
meant for 80.

Damn fools!

The gangway is too narrow.
It looks illegal.

This is empty.

Ma'am, it must've been used
in the fire.

Unsealed?

You decorate the place
with these tiles

made of compressed plastic.

Could anything be more inflammable?

They're banned.

Ma'am, please talk to the owner.

You talk to him and to your lawyer.

Too many violations here.
You should all be jailed.

Bloody fools!

Where were you? I've been calling
for hours.

I'm right here.

I see you.

What happened? Why are you so angry?

You know our country's
basic problem?

No one values life.

They should all be shot.

Shall I tell you a joke?

Is there's a bigger joke
than our system?

No. You're right!

You scum! Move it!

Seat of fire? Source?
Point of origin?

Found anything?

What was it? Gas leak?
Short circuit?

So many violations. I can't be sure
what started the fire.

They used compressed plastic titles.

Ghee and oil tins were stacked
on them.

The fire extinguishers were sealed
and empty.

- They were there as showpieces.
- You must've given them hell.

Who inspected the place last?

No record, sir.

Any eye witnesses?

All useless!
Only bystanders filming.

Who reported the fire?

No idea.

Dammit! How did the temperature
get to 1000 degrees?

I don't understand it.

You know the recent fires at Orion Club
and Alankar Talkies?

The temperature and heat were
unusually high there too.

Same to same, sir.

Did you find the accelerant?

We're expecting the lab report
in two days, sir.

In the meantime,
I'll inform the municipality.

Sir, do you suspect a case
of arson?

Let's wait for the report.

It's done.

Sit down.

- Namaskar, sir.
- Namaskar.

Look at this, sir.

In the last few months,
we've seen a scary pattern

emerging in the recent fires.

Patterns? Meaning?

Clues.

- Clues?
- We've found some clues.

- These could be cases of arson.
- Who'd practice yoga asana in a fire?

Not yoga asana. Arson!

In other words, the fires were started
on purpose.

Everyone is too busy in Mumbai.
Who has the time to start a fire?

Procedure has begun now.

What are you doing? This is
a criminal investigation.

Lunch time.

- Puppets!
- Hmm?

They're all puppets.

Who do you mean?

You and me. We're all puppets.

Someone somewhere is pulling
the strings.

When the philosopher in you
wakes up,

it scares me.

Really? You're scared already?

Think it over. It's not too late.

For what?

Not every firefighter is destined
to marry.

Hello!

Marriage is written in our destiny
and kids too. Four kids!

Four? Who'll look after them?

You. Who else!

I'm not staying at home like
the ideal wife.

- "I'll look after them." As if!
- I'm happy to be a house husband.

Not a bad idea.

The more time I spend
with my daughter,

the more she'll be sweet like me.

- Who said we'll have a daughter?
- Her future father says so!

Nonsense!

What a lovely house.

It's all lovely.

I'll show you something amazing.

Hi. All okay?

A smart fridge with double doors.

Wow!

A smart fridge?

Wait.

Wonderful!

Whatever's in the fridge
can be noted on this display.

Is it ready?

An oven?

Two ovens?

They're different.

You made a feast today.

I'm vegan. Samit has gone gluten-free.

Ruku, stop having milk, yoghurt
and all dairy products.

Your skin will start glowing
in four days.

Could you take this outside?

Take the tray out.

- Shall I try one?
- Sure. It's a bruschetta.

Bruschetta sounds like "Sucheta!"

No, Ruku, please!

Mr. Samit, you've decorated
the house so well.

Thank you! All thanks to my sweat
and blood.

My sweat. Someone else's blood!

Cheers.

Hey, DSP.

Let me get you an imported whisky.
Forget the Indian one.

Your Scotch gives me a hangover.
This is fine.

Sure?

Baba, take a photo of me
and uncle.

Later.

Amya, come here.

We'll take a selfie.
Let your Baba chill.

We have a fab view of the Sea Link.

- Wait. I'll take the photo.
- It's okay.

Let me.

Now show your father
your devil horns!

Thank you, uncle!

I'll show the photo
to the whole school.

But don't pin it on the
notice board.

- As if!
- Go!

He's the strongest Avenger.

He flies off the handle.

- Let's go home.
- We'll leave once he's done eating.

Hurry. You have school tomorrow.

- Yeah.
- Look at your face.

Kamble, do you know why God
created us police officers?

Why?

So firemen would be inspired by us
and become stronger.

Vitthal, that was a joke.
Hope you weren't offended?

Let it go. He's drunk.

Tawde, do you know

why the police always come after us
when a fire breaks out?

- Why?
- Think!

Because your uniform helps
to control the crowd.

Right?

I have a good one for you.

A big national-level contest
was once held.

R&AW agents were invited to participate,
the CID too.

And the police.

What was the contest about?

Someone had to go into the jungle
to catch a wild fox.

The R&AW agents go in first
and return empty-handed.

The CID are next. Ten days later,
they return empty-handed.

Last of all, our brave police
head into the jungle.

Half an hour later
they emerge with a bear.

They give the bear a solid beating.

Then the Supercop asks the bear:
"Who are you?"

Guess what the bear says.

He says: "I'm the wild fox!"

Don't be offended. It's only a joke.

Let's go.

What was that?

It was his party. You humiliated him
in front of his guests.

So you don't get on with Samit, OK.

But when we're together,
we must behave like family.

Why make a scene in public?

I didn't make a scene.

I sat there quietly.
That drunk Tawde started it.

Did you have to tell everyone
that jungle story?

Because Samit is famous?

What? Nothing like that.

It's still 3 degrees in Matheran.

And a hundred degrees in here.

That's why we should go to Matheran
to cool off.

My problem is I can't stay angry
with you for long.

Today the city's geography
has changed.

- What's changed?
- The geography.

Construction of the metro and flyovers
have created bottlenecks.

What construction?

Metro and flyovers!

So we need a fire station
in every zone.

By the time we reach the fire,
the place is already in ashes.

- Already in what?
- Ashes!

Next time the bosses should try
a new approach.

- A new what?
- Approach!

Like in cricket matches,
foreign girls dance in shiny clothes.

- You mean cheer girls?
- Yeah, we should invite them.

We're the cheer girls here.

- Who are we?
- The cheer girls!

- Sir, listen to him.
- We must cheer our leader!

I've laughed so much
now I'm out of breath.

Do you see the word "stupid" written
on my forehead?

I don't need to see it.
We know you are!

My name is Mahadev.
But I'm not the God Mahadev.

- Get yourself treated.
- Oh God!

Don't laugh.

I've had my eye on you.

You enter a smoky room
and start coughing.

It's the heat level.

Whether it's high or low,
no one cares.

People don't care about safety.

We can't afford treatment though we work
48 hours at a stretch.

No one cares about our problems.

But they love holding conferences
every quarter.

- A conference every quarter.
- When's the conference?

Every quarter!

No, in every quarter!

- Get yourself treated.
- Shut up!

Drink up! Console your troubled soul.
What will you do?

- Console my soul. I'll stay silent.
- No, stay sober.

- And you?
- I'm stone sober.

Liar!

Hey, Amit!

I'm Samit.

Did you murder Gambhir Jain?

Give me a nice passport smile.

I'm getting you a visa

for heaven.

You shot him. Right?

No, sir. I only shoot when
I'm forced to.

I'm a good-hearted guy, sir.

A good-hearted guy?
Show me your heart.

That mouth of yours? Only information
comes out from now on. Get it?

Talk!

Balsara!

Udayraj Balsara.

Udayraj Balsara? Who the hell is he?

He was a small-time contractor.

Now he's a hotshot builder.

He paid me.

So where do I find this Donald Trump
of Mira Road?

In Dubai. He contacted me
from Dubai.

Dubai? Tawde, I fancy a trip
to Dubai.

Over 80 rupees to the dollar, sir.
Let Balsara return to India.

I fancied a quick trip.

A good-hearted guy, are you?

What do these aliens do?

They attack the earth. So our forces
must terminate them.

- Shoot on sight.
- You're too young for this.

Baba, it's a game. It's about skill,
not age.

OK. Show me how skilled you are.

What must I do?

Aim with this and shoot.

With this stick?

It's not a stick, Baba!
It's a joystick. It controls movement.

- It's simple.
- Not that simple.

OK. Can I start?

Yes, yes. Start!

Yeah!

Baba! You're a master marksman.

A little more practice and you could be
a sharpshooter.

Better than uncle Samit.

I mean you could be
a sharpshooter too.

- Shall I join the police?
- You'd be a real hero then.

Your father is already a hero.
Watch me.

- See how high he jumps.
- Come here.

- Just wait.
- Come, please.

- Take it.
- Come back soon.

Don't let him die.

What is it?

Amya's principal called.

Why?

He's scaring the other kids.
Talking about killing guys.

- Don't hit him.
- Amya!

Who gave these to you?

Who?

Enough!

Didn't your uncle give you
a gun too?

Which fire did you put out today?

Hey, Vitthal!

Stay away from my family.

Your family? You drunk?

They're blanks.

Stay away from Amya!

Or you'll have to deal with me.

Sir! Emergency.

Fire at Super Bright
Coaching Centre.

Help!

Help!

Move! Get out of the way.

Help!

Move it!

Don't jump.

Stay there. Don't jump.

- Hey, who owns this car?
- He'll be back in two minutes.

Another minute and the whole building
will burn down.

Clear the road.

The road is blocked.
The fire engine can't get through.

- Is this your father's road?
- Move. We can't get through.

Move.

Get the ladder!

- Get inside the building.
- The safety net!

The fire is out of control.

Check all the rooms.

Don't look down.

Careful. Don't touch.

All clear!

- Ganpat!
- Ganpat!

Get the stretcher. Hurry!

Sir!

- No chance.
- No, sir.

Don't worry, Ganpat.
I've talked to the doctor.

Look. There's your father.
He's lying there.

That's not him.

Devi, it's your father. He wants
to see you.

Little Devi is here.

Your father is calling you.

Devi, come!

He's not my father.

Look at him. And take a good look
at yourselves.

His daughter couldn't sleep
without him.

Now she can't even recognise him.

- Sir, everything will be all right.
- No, it won't.

Everything will burn.

His face.

The lines on his palm will burn.
His destiny will be wiped out.

Does no one ever think?

Is there no such thing
as civic sense?

A forgotten school lesson.

The stairway is blocked with
TV boxes, fridge packing,

kids' cycles, old furniture too.

In a fire, it's my men
who die on that stairway.

Did you see the state
of that building?

It could've collapsed at any time.

Don't we get an annual list
of dangerous buildings?

How do they get approved?

They violate the rules
and build in narrow lanes.

How do we get through?
Fly?

Tell you what.

Get your A4 size photos ready.

All our days are numbered.

Sir, don't say that.

Vitthal isn't wrong.

He is right.

All our days are numbered.

What were you saying?

Neeraj, show him the evidence.

The Coaching Centre report
is still pending.

Here are the reports
of the other fires.

Alankar Talkies,

Orion Club and Curry in a Hurry.

The fires have this one thing
in common.

Show me.

Ever exploded a bomb
when you were a kid?

- Many times.
- Me too!

The scoundrel had used
the same technique here.

He's tied the bomb to
a magnicium strip,

ignited it and boom!

By the time it explodes,
he's gone.

These are the cases of arson.

These fires are no accident,
they were started on purpose.

There's been a rise in the number
of fires in Mumbai.

It's the work of an arsonist.
Or careless builders are to blame.

Chief Minister Tipnis has summoned the
BMC and Fire Brigade Chiefs

so that further investigations
can be made.

- Give it to me.
- I'll be done in two minutes.

I have a meeting with the Deputy CM.
I'm not going to a wedding.

You going to a wedding?

I have a meeting with the Deputy CM.

Give me a pill. My head is spinning.

- Drink less.
- Nag less.

Nagging doesn't give you a hangover.

But it gives me a headache.

A fire at the Coaching classes?

Bad.

Two little boy dead.

I feel bad.

But don't worry. Don't worry.

I have... I'm announcing
competition...

- Compensation.
- Huh?

- Compensation.
- Same thing.

Competition. Compensation?

Compensation to little boy's
Daddy and Mummy.

Listen...

Whatever I've just said

must be quoted in tomorrow's papers.

It must be front page news.

Nice boy.

What about Ganpat Shinde?
He lost his life.

- Who's Ganpat Shinde?
- A junior fireman.

His family can't claim insurance
or get compensation.

- Who you?
- Huh?

Who he? Who you?

Vitthal Rao Surve.

Parel Fire Station Chief, ADFO.

What you doing here?
Go! Put out fires.

Sir, this is definitely the work
of an arsonist.

Alankar Talkies, Orion Club,
Curry in a Hurry -

These arson cases share
many similarities, sir.

So why tell me? Go, solve them.

Sir, we gave all the details
to them.

But they did nothing.

Well, Godbole?

Sir, Ganpule.

Same thing. Ganpule. Godbole.

My earring got lost on my way
to Satara

You know Satara?
Want a transfer there?

No, sir.

Had the police acted on time,
the fires could've been prevented.

Are we a common cold
that we can catch anyone?

The Mumbai police is busy
running the city.

We don't have time to tell
fox and bear stories.

Sir, in the past 3 months, the Fire
Department has received 352 calls.

Short circuit, 148.

36 gas leakages

and 29 building collapses.

Know how many were caused
by arsonists?

Zero.

So this fire is normal and natural.

- What is it?
- Natural and normal.

Jai Hind, sir.

What's all this hide-n-seek?
You sly fox.

Speak up!

A short circuit caused the Coaching
Centre fire.

That fire wasn't arson.

I knew it. That's what I said.

Parel's Sherlock Holmes,
shall we go?

People lost their lives
in that fire...

One minute! Don't start fighting.

Stay calm.

Share whatever information you have.
Understand?

But remember, you have 30 days.
How much?

In 30 days, I want a full report.
OK?

Jazz...

- Any new leads?
- No, sir. Nothing yet.

- Revisit all the sites.
- OK, sir.

Nakul!

Jai Hind, sir.

Listen carefully. Inspection certificates,
zoning permits,

BMC approval, violation records.
I want detailed reports of everything.

But sir, it's going to take ages.

You busy flying to the moon tomorrow?

Jai Hind, sir.

Avni.

Send the ashes from the last
three sites to the Catho lab.

Check how the extra heat
was generated.

Copy, sir.

Torch, come with me.

I want you to hang out in the bars
with Sawant's informers.

- But, Chief, I don't drink.
- That's why I'm sending you.

So, Avengers! What's up?

Kamble! What happened to your head?

Domestic violence?

- I met our guy Gaffoor at the bar.
- Oh no!

We met informally.

He introduced me to a fellow
called Gulabchand.

He works for some builder.
Then we ordered some drinks...

Drinking on duty? Arrest him!

Sir, sir! And then...

What's this "sir, sir"?
Should anyone drink on duty?

I had to keep our meeting
casual.

Nothing better than a drink
to get a man talking.

Hope you didn't blurt out
that you're a cop who take bribes.

No, sir.

That's why I ordered beer.
7% alcohol.

The beer made me want to pee,

so I went to the toilet.

Someone came from behind and hit me
on the head with a stick.

How did you know it was a stick
and not a rod?

No, sir, it was a stick.
It had a "tak" sound.

A rod has a "tan-tan" sound.

- Kamble!
- Yes, sir.

- Calm down.
- Yes, sir.

Go easy. My head is hurting.

I tried my level best.

When Gulabchand was drunk,
he told me

his boss was buying up many
burnt out properties for nothing.

Dirt cheap.

He's a builder. He's gonna buy
property not copper-t, right?

Know the builder's name?

Sure, I even have his visiting card.

- Well done!
- Udayraj Balsara.

The same Balsara who's mixed up
in the Jain murder?

Yes.

Let me know when he returns.
We'll give him a warm welcome.

- Good night, sir.
- Good night.

What's this, Parab?

We replaced the AC duct.

It was badly rusted.

We replaced it just in time.

If it had overheated, it would've
short circuited.

We were saved in time or else
it could've started a fire.

This will burn for sure.

The thermite reaction
creates a blue flame.

A mix of rust and aluminum
is at the core of every building.

We've just made an accelerant.

The source of the fire.

The fire spreads thanks
to oxygen,

which you get on opening
doors and windows.

Move back.

You think it'll explode?

- Hundred percent.
- No, it won't explode.

4000 degrees, sir.

At that temperature, forget a man,
even iron could melt. Look.

That's why we didn't find
any clues.

Exactly!

Make a detailed report
of our experiment.

Avni.

Avni.

The arsonist is only targeting
non-functional or high-risk buildings.

Really?

I'm chasing an arsonist too.
She burns hearts!

Stop flirting! Give this to sir.

Stop there!

- Name?
- Vitthal.

Vitthal what? Elephant, horse,
Kala Ghoda?

Chief? Parel Fire Station?

Namaskar, sir. How are you?

Great.

I keep seeing you in the papers.

You're busy catching the serial arsonist.

Good. Namaskar, ma'am.

Namaste.

Let them go.

You're also famous now.

Of course!

He's Mr. Sawant's brother-in-law.
So he's family to us.

Go, sir.

Keep moving.

Ma, this place is so cool.

Why must we come
to such a fancy place?

Even the air you breathe here
costs money.

He wants to apologise to you.
He's feeling bad.

He didn't feel bad giving bullets
to Amya?

Let it go. He'll apologise
to Amya too.

Why are you laughing?

Excuse me!

Hello, sir. Hello, ma'am.
Good evening.

Ma'am, house water
or mineral water?

- House water. Shall we order?
- Yeah.

One chicken clear soup, one steamed fish
in ginger and soya.

One prawn tempura, potato crispy.

- Anything for you, sir?
- I've ordered for everyone.

All right.

Thank you.

- You've been here before?
- No.

- How did you know what to order?
- I read the menu.

- Where's the menu?
- Here.

Drink some water.
Calm down.

I bet Samit invited you here.

They're here.

Promise you won't start
quarrelling.

No chance! I never make promises.

- He's your brother-in-law.
- That's why I spared him.

If my team finds out

that I apologised to him -
for no fault of mine -

that's the end of my career.

- You spoilt Amya.
- Must I say sorry to you first?

Don't make that face! Smile.

Amya, sit over there.

Sit next to your Baba.

Listen. Move that bag.

Samit, sit down.

- How are you?
- How are you?

All good.

I've already ordered for all of us.

Hello. Good evening, ma'am.
Good evening, sir.

Here we go with steamed fish,
potato crispy.

I hope you enjoy your meal, sir.

We hope so too!

- Can you please take a photo?
- Sure!

Sir, please come closer
to each other.

More... a little more.

Should I kiss him?

Smile! You're looking too serious.

- Will you hurry up?
- Yucky!

Not Yucky, sir!
This place is called Teriyaki.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

Enjoy your meal!

Samit, hurry. Say you're sorry.
Everyone's hungry.

Vitthal Rao!

It wasn't easy writing up a
detailed report. So do read it.

If you don't trust me,
keep it.

Of course he trusts you.

We jump into the fires,

they arrive much later
with their fancy glares.

Are you done?

We made a report too.

There's a builder called Balsara.
He buys burned out buildings.

He's abroad. When he returns,
we'll arrest him.

This is not the work of a builder,
but a professional arsonist.

So you're police too?

Anyway, I have some good news.

Oh my God!

- Rukku!
- Why are you so hyper?

He's getting an award.

For catching the wrong man.

- Congratulations.
- Congratulations.

On the 27th. At the ministry.

I'm busy that day.

We'll come.

I can get the function postponed.
Give me a date.

Fires are breaking out every day.
I'll be busy.

A fire's burning right here.
Let's cool it. Order a cold drink.

Enough.

- Sir, hotel?
- No, thanks!

- Sir, Shirdi-Lonavla cheap hotel, sir?
- Shut up!

Buy it, sir. The property is ready.

Only needs a matchstick.

Welcome to Mumbai. The outside
temperature is boiling hot.

Sir, I didn't recognise you.

But I recognised you.

How are you?

Let me... come.

I brought you here straight
from the airport.

So you must be hungry.
I've ordered something for you.

You'll have to eat it
in the order I tell you.

First you'll have a beer to relax.
Then you can enjoy the biryani.

For dessert, I've ordered jalebis.
You like them, don't you?

Eating sugar is good for
the blood circulation.

That'll help you stomach
the next step.

Your second course will include
pliers.

I'll pull out your fingernails
with them.

Next is the surgical knife.

I'll make a design on your backside.

So when you take a dump,
it'll come out in ringlets.

And last - my two favourites:

this sugarcane and this hard fish bone.

We'll use them to smash every joint
in your body.

No scars on the outside, but inside
it'll hurt like hell.

Sir, there has been a serious
misunderstanding.

That's what I thought.

Not a misunderstanding,
but an understanding.

First you burn buildings,
then you buy them cheap.

Sure, I buy them cheap.
It makes business sense.

Do you know Amit Naik?

- You got Gambhir Jain murdered?
- Not me.

You burnt Alankar Talkies,
Curry in a Hurry,

then bought them. Right?

I made them an offer.

- Before? Or after they burned?
- After.

All over.

You've confessed.

Case closed.

How's it closed?

An expert who knows fire's nature
is behind this.

You know the nature of fire,
I know the nature of crime.

He lit the fire or hired
an expert like you.

I'll arrest the culprit soon. Happy?

You're making a big mistake.

Vitthal, don't worry. Case is over.

OK?

Bravo, Samit! Clap!

Avengers, let's party now!

Thank you, sir. Thank you.

You'll regret it.

Breaking news:

We've just learned that the builder
Udayraj Balsara

has been arrested by the Mumbai Police

in connection with
the rise of city fires.

After Curry in a Hurry
and other sites were set ablaze,

the Fire Department has had
to work 24/7.

Now the culprit
is in police custody,

Mumbai can sleep in peace again.

Nipun, stop clowning.

Surya!

Don't give him a hard time!
Give the book back.

What is it? His love letters?

This poor guy has
no luck with girls.

- It's been the same since his childhood!
- Show.

He's collected every newspaper article
about the Mumbai Fire Brigade.

- Really?
- Yes, madam.

I've worked hard.

- Isn't it lovely?
- Very.

It's her birthday
not her engagement.

- You're such a bore!
- So let me get interesting.

Stay boring for now.
Let's go.

You're sweet.

Happy birthday to you!

Happy birthday, dear Avni!

Happy birthday to you!

I dance the bhangra on the beat

Come, dance with me

Let's throw caution to the wind

I feel like plucking the moon
and stars for you

I'll keep the moon in my hands,
the stars on my brow

Hello, hello! When she comes
on the dance floor

Here! What a fun time this is

Hello, hello! You've had a drop too much

Go slow, go slow,
watch it now, mister

My heart races,
her bangles jingle

The night is full of magic,
so let's talk of love

There's a fun party going on
upstairs.

I know. We should've joined them.

Parel Station, come in.
Fire at Balboa High Rise.

Send MP1, MP2, JTB.

Fire! Balboa High Rise.

Balboa High Rise.

MP1. MP2.

A fire! Balboa High Rise.

Check the meter room.

Sir, two people are stuck in the lift
near the 8th floor. B Wing.

Abdul, go with Raunaq.

The rest of you, come with me.
A Wing.

Vitthal sir, come in.

Explosions on 7th floor.

Who is up there?
Tell me. Hurry!

I'm going.

Come, child, come out.

Don't be scared. Come to me.

Tell Control Room to send a unit. Hurry!

There's a woman trapped near
the south exit. Quick.

Copy. I'm heading to the 7th floor.
B Wing.

Sir, shall I call for oxygen?
Stay here. I'll go up.

I'll join you.

Anyone there?

Take it.

Come on.

Come on, hurry!

Follow this line all the way down.

Stop. Stop.

I'm going to the 8th floor.
Chief, backup!

Stop. Who are you?

Take your mask off.

Send backup to the 7th floor.

Vitthal sir down.

We've found Vitthal sir.
We're bringing him out.

Get the ambulance ready!

Step aside!

He's lost consciousness.

Jazz!

A stretcher. Now!

Move! Hurry!

Cool him.

Jazz. Jazz.

Jazz. Jazz. Jazz.

Jazz.

Jazz.

Attention!

Get another statement from Balsara.

Make him confess that he set fire
to Balboa High Rise.

Can't spoil your reputation,
can we?

Jazz called out to me.

"Chief, help."

I was his backup, Mahadev.

There was nothing I could do.

I killed him.

- I killed him.
- You didn't, I killed him.

We all killed him. The whole system
killed him.

Today Jazz died,

tomorrow you will die,
and I'll die too.

We'll all die, Vitthal.

What's this photograph doing here?

I wore these split-sole boots
in the Curry in a Hurry fire.

No, sir. These photographs are from
Balboa High Rise. Look.

The police have marked the photo.

The boots you were wearing at
Curry in a Hurry are here. Look.

You think we would not know about
the state of your health?

You collapsed on the job, Vitthal.

It cannot happen again.

Management thinks you're high risk.

It's unfair, sir.

Then fix it.

Prove your fitness in 3 months.

Or it's a desk job for you.
Go.

I've worked hard for twenty-two years.

Never considered my family,
put my life on the line.

And now they say I'm high risk.

We take risks -

no matter who is at fault,
we're the ones who die.

Forget medals, they don't even pay
our medical bills.

- We're not respected.
- Absolutely.

So why play the hero?

Why fight fires when you're not fit?

It's for my family.

Didn't I have a family?

Father died in the Kalbadevi fire.
Could anyone save him?

We identified him by his ring.

Putting a father's charred body
on a funeral pyre -

we know how that feels.

Father burned twice and I burned
three times.

Then my brother Parshuram
died on 26/11.

He saved 20 lives. Not even
20 people applauded him.

Not one of the people he saved
came to pay their last respects.

Our Ameen, Gupte, Ganpatrao, Naved -
they all died on duty.

They saved a father,
they saved a son.

But our firemen's children
don't have fathers.

Their families are destroyed.

Does anyone know the name
of a single firefighter?

City roads and squares are named
after politicians. What about us?

They announce medals for us
and then cancel them.

They only glorify the police.
Does your son respect you?

Anyway, cheers.

To Jazz.

And to all the martyred firefighters.

"Those who live among flames
become immortal."

No!

Baba is stinking.

He smells. Move away.

Take this.

- You were right. Jazz...
- He's gone.

Jazz has gone.

What difference does it make?

Jazz has gone, I'll be next.

What difference does it make
if we live or die?

It makes a difference to us.

Amya, does it make a difference
to you?

Yes.

Liar!

Go to bed.

Put your feet in.

"Those who live among flames
become immortal."

I burnt down the theater.

I set fire to the restaurant.

I destroyed the building too.

It made no difference to anyone, father.

Mother,

remember I swore on you?

I'll restore honor.

The time has come to burn
both the police and the politicians.

Time has come to roast them alive.

Parshu,

you will be very proud of me.

It'll be fun.

Mother, father.

Give me your blessings.

Only 18 passes?

Must we invite so many?

You're getting an award after all!

Mrs. Thakur, Mrs. Patil are my friends.

They'll sit with Rukmini and Amya
on the front row.

And Mr. Grumpy?

You mean Vitthal?

He isn't coming? I knew it.

I'll get you the passes.

For your book. It was in
today's papers.

A similar ad was printed before.

Before?

I've seen 4 or 5 identical ads
in the past six months.

Anyway, thank you.

Sir.

Sir, who places firemen's obituaries
in the papers?

No idea. Our department doesn't.

Why?

Sir, whenever an obituary appears,
there's a big fire on that day.

What?

Look, sir.

10 November. Alankar Talkies.

Here.

Orion. Another ad.

16th January. Curry in a Hurry.
The ad again.

And here - 6th October -

Today's papers and the same ad.

There'll be another fire today, sir.

Those who live among flames
become immortal.

Was Mahadev's unit at
Balboa High Rise?

I'll have to check, sir.

Namaskar. What's up, Mumbai?

All good!

So, Vikram. How are you?

If you ask me so sweetly,
obviously I'll feel fine.

We could keep chatting, but we must
start the programme.

First and foremost,
switch off your lifelines, please!

She means - switch off your phones.
Please.

You're getting real smart!

Salaam, sir.

He lit the fire or hired
an expert like you.

I killed him.

We all killed him.

The whole system killed him.

Didn't I have a family?

Father died in the Kalbadevi fire.

Brother Parshuram died on 26/11.

Anyway, cheers.

To Jazz.

And to all the martyred firefighters.

Sir, Mahadev was not on duty
at Balboa High Rise.

- Hey you, Mr. Sandals!
- The sole is split.

I wore these boots at the
Curry in a Hurry fire.

These photos were taken
later at Balboa High Rise.

Mahadev was not on duty
at Balboa High Rise.

Sir, aren't you attending
the award function?

Mahadev is there.

Congratulations, sir!

- There's still time.
- In advance!

Who knows if we'll meet later.

Aren't you staying
for the function?

It's a big day, sir.

Thank you.

The Deputy Chief Minister
is on his way.

- I have to pee!
- Right now?

- Want me to come with you?
- No.

Will you be OK alone?

Come back soon.

All lines are busy.

Uncle Mahadev!

I request our Deputy Chief Minister
to join us on stage.

A round of applause,
ladies and gentlemen!

Uncle!

Uncle! Let me go. Please.

Listen, Amya.

This is our... fight for our rights.

I'm fighting for all firemen.
Single-handedly.

Unless you shout into their ears,
they pretend to sleep.

But now the time has come
to wake them all up.

Time to welcome Senior Inspector
Samit Sawant on stage.

Senior Inspector Samit Sawant.

Let's give him a big round of applause,
ladies and gentlemen.

- Sir!
- Good boy!

It's your father. I think he knows.

Mahadev, don't do it.

9.15 is an auspicious time
for funerals.

The body will be placed on the funeral pyre,prasad will be offered.

And hungry crows
will start cawing.

Don't do it!

It's time for revolution, Vitthal.

Mahadev, enough people have died.

Have their deaths made
any difference? Does anyone care?

I should've burned them all
a long time ago. I'm late.

I should've burned them
long ago.

Vitthal, all these damn police officers
receive awards.

What do we get?

Death.

It's their turn to die.

Have you gone crazy?

Someone had to go crazy one day.

God chose me.

Vitthal, the world only knows
one language.

The language of fear.

The language of fear.

Be frightened.

Let these scumbags be terrified.

Then they'll realise the worth
of every firefighter.

We save lives. Not take them.

No! You're very keen on saving lives.
I tell you what, Vitthal.

Come. Save your son's life.

Mahadev!

You don't trust him?
Don't value your father?

Who'll save you from the fire?

Your hero uncle Samit?

Or my hero?

Vitthal.

Amya!

Tambe! Tawde!

Look at the smoke! Open the doors.

Sir!

- Avni, come to the ministry.
- Copy, sir. I'm coming with a unit.

Don't you worry. It'll be all right.

Amya must be in the washroom.

Listen to me.

Leave the building now.
I'll get Amya.

- Hurry!
- Get the pipe out!

Sir, I'm here with a unit.

Move!

Amya is inside.

I know. Don't worry.

It's Mahadev. He's got Amya.

That lowlife.

Amya! Amya!

Amya!

Amya! Amya!

Amya!

Amya!

Amya!

- Baba.
- Get down!

Madam, step back.

- Baba!
- It s all right.

Come on.

Climb.

Don't worry. Hold on.

Go left. I'm coming.

Baba, the fire's getting closer.

Ma.

Where's Samit?

No one dies today.

Fast! Let's go.

Get everyone out quickly!

Kartik, Abdul - upstairs.
Avni, east Wing.

Copy, sir.

The basement. Quick!

Be careful!

You lowlife! Defuse it.

Are you crazy? Put it out.

Mahadev, put it out.
Or I'll shoot you.

Mahadev, I'm warning you.
Put it out or I'll shoot.

Samit, stop.

What are you doing?

Stop. Don't do it.

It's too late, Vitthal.

Our men are dying
because of your madness.

No, not dying.
They're becoming immortal.

Lives must be lost
for a greater cause.

A greater cause?
By killing innocents?

Who are you to talk?

Samit, don't shoot him.

Mahadev, stop now.

- Our department will get dishonoured.
- So what's new?

Hold my hand.

Let me go, Vitthal. Save yourself.

Don't be crazy. Don't let go.

Hold on tight.

Get the ladder up!

Vithal sir, where are you?

Sir, can you hear us?

Sir, can you hear us?

Vitthal sir!

Vitthal sir!

Sir, can you hear us?

Throw the rope down.

Vitthal sir!

Sir, grab the rope.

Take the rope, sir.

Now pull! Keep pulling.

Careful. Yes, pull.

Keep pulling.

Let's go. Our team is here.

Keep pulling. Come on!

Baba.

Samit.

Hey, I'm fine!

You all right?

I told you they'd both be back.

He's fine.

Did your head get hurt?

Who are you? Can't remember.

A miracle has unfolded
before our very eyes.

No one was hurt.

The hero of the day
is Samit Sawant.

Samit, come here.

- Sir, I...
- Come here.

No, I'm not the hero today.
He is.

Vitthal Rao.
