All language subtitles for Santosh (2024) (United Kingdom) (1)

Mom ?

Mom !

- Good morning.
- Welcome.

- Where is your father?
- Inside.

- Everything is fine ?
- Yes. Enter.

We waited a long time for
you. Finally, it's us who come.

What are we going to do with her?

Keep it at home.

She never lived here.

She always didn't care about us.

She took Raman away from
us to better boss him around!

When we needed her,
Madame was going out for a walk!

She wasted all her money.

Should she come
and live on our hooks?

If Santosh seems ill-bred to you,
teach her a lesson: she will learn.

He's a real mule-head!
And not helpful at all.

She will take care of you like

she did Raman, you will see.

As a daughter-in-law,
she has rights.

Rights?
This witch destroyed my son!

Look at her, with all her jewelry!

She doesn't even mourn!

Look at his manners!

You don't take back an
old pot that has been used.

Stay correct, ma'am!

We have granted all
your dowry requests.

You just offered a
motorbike, not a helicopter!

What is this for?

To give to the crows.

Wait!

Your brother will go tomorrow morning.

Let your brother do it.

It is for the crows to eat this
for the rest of Raman's soul.

I know when they come.

Is it this way?

The women's office is at the back.

I'm not coming to file a
complaint. I have an appointment.

- You are... ?
-Santosh Saini.

Go sit down.

- Age ?
- 28 years old.

- Father's name?
-Ravi Baliyan.

Father's profession?

We have a bike shop.

- Where do you live now?
-Mapur.

- Whose house?
- At my parents' house.

Is it tense with the in-laws?

- Add doctor's report.
- Good, boss.

Oh yes, you had a love marriage?

That's it.

Have you been married since...?

Two years.

Children?

No.

Listen...

Raman did not serve long.

You're hardly going to touch anything.

Have you thought about the future?

Not really...

Do you know that we will
have to return the apartment?

How so ?

It belongs to the state.

There are families waiting.

Bring Saini's things.

Sir, I...

Is there no way?

Try to do something...

Have you never thought about working?

I have already worked.

Homework help.

Good.

There is a state program
for women like you:

“compassionate recruitment”.

As Raman's widow,
you will inherit his position.

Tasks suitable for women.

After your training,
you will be appointed peacekeeper.

- Peacekeeper?
- Like Raman.

I don't promise you anything,
but I can make the request.

I will support your case.

Integrity guys like Raman,
there aren't many.

You will receive the same salary,
plus widow’s pension.

On my account?

Obviously !

What a question!

Discuss it with your parents.

RAMAN SAINI

Madam,

question him too.

Listen,

if you want us to help you,
you have to tell us everything.

Tell us everything frankly.

We were friends.

- We had reports...
- I see.

But...

now he refuses to marry me.

For what ?

He's the one to ask.

I don't know what she's thinking.

I'm already in a relationship.

Oh yes !

- How many are there like that?
- Only one.

We're just classmates.
Nothing more.

I don't know what she's saying.

Who are you talking to there?

Who asked you the question?
It's me.

This is news, she doesn't
know anything about it.

She's not the one who's going to save you.

What do we do now?

Should I give him article 376?

Don't do this.

Madam,
do what you have

to do, but he should think

twice before abusing a girl.

Listen to me, please.

But definitely.

We will listen to you.
Put your phone down.

Take him away.

I tell you she's lying.

Can I go to the toilet?

Santosh.

Take her to the bathroom.

Bring him inside.

Thin.

I'll get the key.
Sit down.

Bad guy!

Straighten up. This
is just the beginning!

A tea.

She adopted you!

We had a servant to walk the

dog and help my wife a little.

He returned home.

Priya prepared everything alone!

Everything is fine ?

And the room?

She's good.

It's just poorly ventilated.

Where did you live before?

Ghazaliabad.

Was your husband stationed there?

Yes, inspector.

How did he die?

He has...

He was sent to Nehrat
at the time of the riots.

And ?

Someone threw a rock at his head.

Did we stop him?

It was a riot... Difficult
to identify the culprit.

I too was posted in Nehrat.

I was patrolling the
butcher's market.

I told them:

“Hindu women are
forced to hold their

noses because it stinks around here!”

“Get it off me, and quickly!”

Some obeyed.

The others have tasted the baton!

What heat!

It's going to be the
oven, in your room!

There is a spare room
next door, if that tells you.

With an air cooler.

You will be near
us. Like family.

- Does that suit you?
- Yes, sir. THANKS.

And in the morning, you could
come and help Priya from time to time.

Should I take it out?

- Where does it rub?
- In front.

Don't have a toe
ring? Bachelor ?

What am I getting involved in?

Tell.

I woke up, she had disappeared.

This morning ?

- Yesterday morning.
- All right.

We searched everywhere with the neighbors.

Not found.

Please ?

Yes ? Is it for the shoemaker
or the public writer?

- It's for a complaint.
- GOOD.

- How much is it?
- 50 rupees.

All right.

I'll be with you in 5 minutes.

And then?

- How old is she?
- 15 years old.

Fifteen years.

Follow me.

We'll see that at the station,
not on the ground in the dust.

I went there yesterday.
Nobody received me.

I'll take care of it.
Follow me.

God bless you.

- Chief ?
- Between.

This man's daughter has disappeared.

All right.

She is a minor.
He is very worried.

My respects.

What's your name?

Ram Pippal.

Where do you live ?

Khadola.

- What neighborhood?
- Bhakri, in Laalipur.

- Your caste?
- Chamar.

- Name of the girl?
- Devika.

I'm listening to you.

My daughter disappeared two days ago.

Did you look in the fields?

Yes.

Did you look closely?
She must have gone to shit.

We have toilets at home.

And we accuse the government
of doing nothing for the people!

Even this guy has toilets!

Well said, boss!

Did you call 112?

There's no shame in asking the
neighbors if you don't have credit!

You must first make a written

statement if you want us to investigate.

I'll write the complaint, boss.

I'll take care of it.

If it's you who writes,

afterwards, he will say: "The

inspector and the
lady wrote nonsense."

Ask someone.

Go see the shoemaker.

It's the afternoon.
He has to take a nap.

The shoemaker is taking his nap.

It's not like us,
on duty day and night!

You're right, boss.

You can leave.

Come back at the end of the
day. He will write your complaint.

Go ahead.

Do what you're told.
Come back later.

- Hello, mom?
- Yes, my dear.

How are you ?

- I'm fine. And you?
- Yes, but I can't sleep.

How's your work going?

Is it going well?

How are you.

I'm just a little tired.

Standing !

What are you doing there?

Nothing, ma'am.

What's your name?

Sumit.

Sumit how?

Goyal.

Come a little closer, Romeo!

You make me 20 bends And
you ask him for forgiveness.

This way, you.

Santosh!

Count the bends.

Twenty, not one less.

I ask for forgiveness.

I ask for forgiveness.

I ask for forgiveness.

Don't stop.

You put your phone down!

Get out!

Don't stop.

Come on !

Go on.

Again.

Madam.

Don't tell my parents.

Come on, go home.

No, no, no!
Abuse of power!

- Shame on the police!
- Shame on you!

We will investigate, find the
culprit, send him to court and prison.

Bring us that bastard
back and we'll leave.

We're going to find him
and send him to prison.

Clear the way, out of
respect for the body.

No one will move from here.

Evacuate.

Send the female agents.

May the same thing happen to your daughter!

Put them online.

Very straight.

Stick it to the other one.

- Kohli, bring the body.
- Good, boss.

Where are you going?
Bring the body back.

- Where was she?
- In their well.

She must have slipped.

- Who fished her out?
- It's their job to empty the sewers.

- It's not the same caste.
-Arvind!

Yes, boss?

Take the jeep and go to the morgue.

Chief, the jeep is at
the Madrabad station.

Well, you're doing fine!

Chief...

it's a bit tricky.

It would be better to
send a female colleague.

250 rupees.

- They didn't pay you?
- It's your package.

I don't have any change.

Where were you?

There was no more power.
We went to get ice cream.

We don't have any more room.

Come back tomorrow morning.

Listen... my brother...

She's a kid.

Is there no doctor?

That's our job.

The doctor just signs.

It was you who was in a hurry.

Here.

Why are you stopping?
Keep zapping.

Stop.

... gathered in front of the police station,

where the body of Devika
Pippal was exposed.

A video has been circulating, showing Inspector

Thakur in the middle of a
purification ceremony on his duty.

See how the body of a young
Dalit girl is a stain for the police!

Asked about the rape
followed by murder

of the schoolgirl, Inspector Thakur said:

Girls want to wear jeans, have
a smartphone, go out alone...

No wonder they get raped!

Another dubious remark from the
Chirag Pradesh law enforcement agencies.

Dalit leader Manu Dar
announced he was suspending

his election campaign to
meet the teenager's parents.

This treatment of Dalits is unacceptable.

There will be accountability.

Rights must be protected and

complaints, correctly recorded.

This government has blood on its hands.

He won't get away with it!

Down with the police!

The Devika Pippal affair
raises a lot of questions.

When will the investigation
report be made public?

I know you have
a lot of questions.

I will give you a complete update.

Devika Pippal, aged 14

or 15, daughter of Ram

and Rani Pippal,

agricultural workers in Laalipur.

The body was found
yesterday in a well.

An autopsy was performed, the
results of which we are awaiting.

The cause of death is unknown.

Push yourself.

The police refused to take the complaint.

How to trust the survey?

Sorry about this morning, boss.

You put on a dirty uniform
again. I hope it doesn't show.

Devika means “goddess”.

In a country where goddesses are

worshipped, such a crime cannot go unpunished.

I'm resuming the investigation.

Thirty years ago, I participated in the

creation of the first
women's brigades.

It's a social problem.

The police must fairly reflect
all components of society.

Women are underrepresented there.

We must deploy them on
the ground for this to change.

That's all for today.
THANKS. That's enough.

Have you met the boss?

Yes, but now,
I see the type it is.

Look: she’s already
choosing her beans!

Bring a rag! Quickly !

Do we store evidence like that?

My respects, boss.

Chief ?

I was the one who took
the body to the morgue.

That's why my uniform was dirty.

"Cleanliness is a sacred
duty", Gandhi said.

Put that there.

Nobody wanted to touch the body.

Why tell me this?

Just like that.

- Can I work?
- Pardon.

- Who is it ?
- My brother-in-law.

- How much did you lend him?
- In the 80,000s.

He knows how to borrow,
but not refund.

So, I took his buffalo from him.

To have fresh milk and ghee.

I took good care of
it. Not a drop of milk!

And then?

I called the vet. He told
me to massage his udder!

Way foreplay.

And then?

Nothing. That gives me
two big cows at home.

They suck my money and
have their breasts massaged.

Foodies!

Approach.

- Where is the Dalit village?
- Straight ahead.

No one went to see the well?

Were you waiting for an invitation?

Go there by bike, I’ll follow you.

We didn't have the chance: it
was they who brought the body.

The filing of the complaint was botched.

It's because of Inspector Thakur.

Do we have any news about him?

He was transferred to Shajapur.

Do you want to join
him? It can be arranged.

Come on.

You and Santosh,
you close my well.

We're going to find the village chief.

Yadav-ji, ribbon.

Stop!

Where are you going?

I don't have the stakes!

Madam police!

- Where are the people?
- Went to get water.

We tire ourselves
out to walk to Dulhera.

- When are you going to cure it?
- It's not our job.

There was a dead body in there.
We have the right to clean water.

We will investigate.

As if you were investigating
without a bribe...

What were you looking for, ma'am?

The well.

- Did you find it?
- Yes.

Want to see something
we found in there?

Come.

Over there.

Further away.

This way.
Move forward, first.

No !

A little further.

So.

Sir ?

What is this?

A cat.

Why is it wet?

He was in the well.

Was he drafted with the kid?

They got him out before the girl.

How many days before?

A few days before.

How did he end up in the well?

A cat is bad, in your opinion?

Do you know where the Pippals live?

At the foot of the hill.

Go ahead.
We need a photo of the girl.

Should I go alone?

Is this a problem?

No, boss.

Go play outside.

Go.

When did she leave?

At dawn, to look for water.

Everything is fine ?

Everything is fine.
Go home.

Who was it?

A neighbor.

Was someone bothering him?

No way.

Where are his things?

- Do you know a certain Saleem?
- No.

Maybe your husband knows him?

He doesn't know any Muslims.

- What are you doing?
- We are day laborers.

Do you know how to read and write?

We are illiterate. That's why
the police don't listen to us!

Are you only going back now?

Have you had dinner?

No, boss.

We're going to eat together.

Come on.

Devika received lots of texts
from someone named Saleem.

I picked up the phone.

I did well, right?

What do these texts say?

The first one says:

"Hi.

“You looked hot in your orange tunic.”

With a smiley.

The second:

“Take it well.”

And another:

“We can chat, right?”

And then:

“I’m going to Mumbai.

“I’ll bring you back an
even more beautiful tunic.”

Devika: smiley.

Then text from Saleem:

“I’m going to become a singer.
I have an uncle in Mumbai.”

Given.

Wash your hands.

Come!

There's a towel there.

Devika:

“Why chat with me if
you’re going to Mumbai?”

Saleem:

“You are a thousand times more
beautiful than all the girls in Mumbai.”

Devika: smiley.

Saleem: “Hello!”

No response.

Message from Saleem:

“When are you going
back to the market?

“I have lots of things to tell you.”

No response.

He was harassing her.

Or maybe she
couldn't answer him.

The last text was from the 23rd.

The body was found on the 26th.

The criminals know that
the police find the phones.

They text after the crime.

I'll trace the number.

You did a good job.

He's not here, ma'am.
It's been several days.

I didn't even ask!

Where did he go?

I don't know.

Tell me where he is.

I tell you I don't know anything about it.

We work as day laborers.

We go where there is work.

Where was your son Saleem
from February 23 to 26?

At his uncle's house.

His millionaire uncle in Mumbai?

Get the fuck out of me!

Shut him up!

How old is your daughter?

Five years.

You know this atrocious affair...

in Harkatganj?

A little girl of the same age. Raped,
killed and thrown into the ditch.

Bottles and tools had
been pushed into him.

The culprit was a local wizard.

But we arrived too late.

He was found dead the next day.

With the cut cock in
the mouth, lollipop style.

Tempers get heated quickly around here.

What father would want that for his son?

This song gives me goosebumps.

But movie songs,
it's not the truth.

The singer is doing his
job but it's pissing me off!

It comes from the heart.

But it’s true that it’s comedy.

We know comedy!

We all play comedy:
us as the suspects.

We put pressure on
them. They start to cry.

Real tears or crocodile tears?

Sometimes it shows.

Sometimes you have to tap to find out.

Did Saleem's father lie?

We are in the middle of sowing. This
is the season when they earn the most.

Who would look for work elsewhere?

What about Devika’s
mother? Was she lying?

- Why would she lie?
- For fear of dishonor.

I too mumbled.

The story of the sorcerer.

I was wrong ?

Saleem is nowhere to be
found. No way to locate it.

He must have removed his
SIM card, the motherfucker.

Take the bag from behind.

Is that it?

Look at.

I saw you running.

You have to have the right outfit.

Thanks, boss.

Auntie!

Auntie, there's someone.

Me and auntie make chapatis.

Who is there?

I'm looking for the village chief.

I'm listening to you.

It's me, the pradhan.

We're looking for someone named Saleem.

It seems that he works in your fields.

Go get Ramesh.

What did he do?

We are investigating
the death of little Pippal.

I have a few questions.

Are you new?

Yes.

Your name?

Peacekeeper Saini.

Come, Ramesh.

Ramesh, do you know a

worker named Saleem?

Ansari. From Laalipur.

Yes, ma'am. I know him.

- He worked here last month?
- Yes. With his father.

- Are you sure?
- Yes. They left right in the middle.

What day?

I couldn't say the date.

We have around a hundred workers.

Didn't he leave between
the 23rd and the 26th? Think.

I told you,
I don't know.

If you are finished,
can I go back to work?

The road is blocked.

No disturbance of public
order! Let's take the other route.

We all take the other way.
Come on !

Come see!

- What beautiful things are you doing?
- We're playing, can't we see?

- What's your name?
-Masood Khan.

- Where do you live ?
- Right there.

Saleem Ansari, do you know?

He's a local guy, you
definitely know him.

So what?

Your friend is missing and you're
acting like nothing happened?

What did he do?

- Where did he go?
- What do I know?

Come on, let's play!

Return the ball.
All in position!

Wait! Masod!

I have something to tell
you. Come on for a second.

Come on, come on!

This way.

Give your phone.

My phone?

Given. Don't be afraid.

Hold.

I added myself to your contacts.
Santosh.

All right ?

Contact me whenever
you want. Even at night.

Because...

We're going to have to bust
someone. They put pressure on us.

Do you understand?

And I don't think anyone
is going to save you.

OK? So now you
go home and think.

If he told you where he was
going and it came back to you...

You call me or send
me a WhatsApp, OK?

Come on, go play.

Go do your Shoaib Akhtar!
Come on !

- What did she want?
- Just give me his number.

He is in Nehrat. That's
all he told me. Sworn.

Delete this message.
Masood.

Saleem is in Nehrat.

Info from one of his friends.

I put pressure on him.
He spilled the beans.

Your colleagues doubted your abilities.

Here they are fixed.

What do we do now?

Contact Nehrat police?

Do you want to entrust the matter to them?

We will go tomorrow. In civilian clothes.

I have good contacts in Nehrat.

Is that where your husband died?

Yes.

A Muslim threw a
stone at his head.

And we didn't stop him, did we?

No.

Without justice, how do
you want to turn the page?

Where are you?

I have an emergency. Go
alone. I'm sending you Kohli.

Don't send Kohli.
I'll manage.

I'm almost there.
When are you coming?

It's for a personality. I
have until the afternoon.

Starts with Gadar
Bazar, the Muslim quarter.

Good, boss.

You still haven't told
me where you're going.

The clock is ticking, right?
So roll on.

Last year's riots,
where was it?

They're there all the time here!

A police officer was killed.
Don't you remember?

Come see.

Have you ever seen this boy?
Has he been here before?

Look carefully.

- Doesn't he work in the neighborhood?
- No.

- Are you sure?
- I don't know.

INSPECTOR SHARMA
Appeal rejected

Find. Maybe.

SHOBHA HOTEL

Do you want to eat something?
The kitchen will close.

No.

I'm not far away.

Don't take your eyes off him.

You sing well.

Where are you going?

Why are you afraid?

Let me go!

Do you dare touch women?

Dirty.

Calm down.

Close your eyes.
Inspired. Expired.

Gently.

Gently. Don't move.

You have a pierced nose:
It has to be useful!

It's up to you!

Oh yes ?

I didn't know it was filmed.

Was it mom who saw me?

What did she say?

And grandmother?

Good. At least I
did something good.

I'll call you back.

- You are at home here.
- THANKS.

Are you here on business ?

I never stop!

You are on all the
channels. Congratulations.

Keep it up,
Madam Agent.

Did you want to see us?

Bring pastries:
This is their first visit.

- Where is the guy?
- In the jeep.

Wait!

- Offer the boy a drink.
- Good, sir.

Did you want to see us?

I was thinking...

Instead of taking it back to

Machogar, start the work here.

At the station or here, it
comes to the same thing.

Mr. Prefect...

it would be better to start
the 24 hours in Machogar.

I've already arranged everything.

It is very late and
the situation is tense.

Imagine an incident on the road.

As you wish, sir.

Inspector Sharma, you

have my complete confidence.

And you, with your
bravery, you will go far!

She taught me everything.

I owe him everything.

Do you like it?

Where were you? Do
you have the newspaper?

I went to eat.

And we can die?

You could have brought something back!

Nehrat is famous for its
sweets. You have to taste it.

Speak !

Why does he say nothing, the circumcised?

Leave me!

Just questions!

Spit it out!

Why did you kill her?
You could just rape her!

Stop! That's enough.

Stand on it!

You better not move.

At the slightest movement,
Govind will piss in your face.

And you'll just have
to lick up all his piss.

She will watch you.

I'm going to take a nap.

He doesn't sit down.

Come here.

It's almost the full moon.
Holi is approaching.

We don't lie during
this blessed time.

- How long have you known Devika?
- I don't know her.

- How did you get his number?
- I don't know.

You will tell that to the judge.

I swear to you.

Where were you from February 23 to 26?

In Mumbai.

The bastard!

- I'm telling the truth!
- Don't take me for an idiot!

How did you know
her? Speak or you'll die.

How did you get his number?

I saved you a samosa.

Enjoy your food.

COME BACK QUICKLY, MY LOVE!

You bastard!

Finished, ablutions.

Don't do your cinema!

Where is Mecca?

This way?

Where did you meet her?

At the market.

How did you get his number?

Did you buy it at the market?

She gave it to me.

Little bastard!
Why did you do that?

I liked her.

Why did you run if
you are innocent?

The police were looking for me.

Motherfucker!
You little piece of shit!

You son of a pig!

Do you dare touch girls?

Motherfucker!

You crushed your cigarette on
his body. Did it make you hard?

How was she screaming? Very
strong or not strong enough?

Why did you do that?

Did you film everything with your
friends? Did you all go over him?

Why did you do that?

Motherfucker! You dirty pig!

Holy crap.

Ask for forgiveness.

Ask for forgiveness!

Request !

Pick it up.

Are you going out at this time?

I can't sleep.

Come, I'll give you a pill.

What are you waiting for?

Hold.

Let's stand there.
We're suffocating inside.

Sit down.

We killed him.

Yes, he is dead.

That's how it is.

He raped and killed a 15 year
old girl. Then threw his corpse.

Was it a hobby?

Was that his right?

It shouldn't keep you from sleeping.

It happens.

Sleep and try to forget.

Take the pill.

I can't forget.

His face...

his white teeth...

the smell of the room...

her cries...
everything is engraved in my head.

But what he said,
we didn't even listen to him.

Maybe he was telling the truth?

We did what we could, Santosh.

Let's assume he told the truth.

What does this bring us forward?

If you can't sleep alone,
sleep here.

No thanks. It'll be OK.

Why chat with me if
you're going to Mumbai?

You are a thousand times more
beautiful than girls in Mumbai.

Flower of the walk

Kohli.

Kohli!

Santosh, come on!
It's Holi!

No, I don't want to.
Where is the boss?

She flew by.
She left something for you.

Can I watch?

Can I take one?
We barely got anything.

- The honor is yours.
- No.

Taste!
You deserved it.

By the way,
What happened to Saleem?

He hanged himself.

Apparently this already

happened once with the boss.

What a bunch of motherfuckers!

My head hurts terribly.

They lost their son.

You have to see what they want.

We find a compromise
and they shut their mouths.

Come on.

Alright.
As you wish.

I'll put the air conditioning
on for you. It will pass.

Another tea.

You're not going to give them
their stuff back? His phone, etc.

Don't lecture me.

You went too hard with the strap.

It will be seen in the photos.

The photos?

In the autopsy report.

When the investigators are here, they will cook

you, you will no longer know where to put yourself!

Even the best ones fail.

They'll turn your head
upside down in no time!

When are they arriving?

It's like death: you never
know when it hits you.

Hey, Pappu!

We didn't give you a
bike so you could have fun.

We never see you at the station.

And there, you look good on a bike!

Shall we take it back from you?

No, ma'am.
I'll come.

When?
When I'm dead?

Do you have any information?

Nothing... They found
another beast in the Dalit well.

- When?
- Today.

Is that all?
Nothing else?

He's leaving, the bastard!

- What's going on?
- There's a dead dog.

Who threw it there?

The upper castes.

- Why would they do that?
- To harass us.

When did this happen?
Are there any witnesses?

I came to make a report,
All right ?

You will calmly tell
me what happened.

A report?
To wipe you with it?

- What's your problem?
- It's you.

What have I done to you?

I came to help you.

As luck would have it...
she is expecting a bribe!

Are you deaf or blocked?

Always whining!
Is that your thing?

Whatever we do,
you are never happy!

Are you on our side now?

You don't even drink from our glasses!

Get the hell out!

Save your investigation
and go away!

Is anyone there?

Pradhan-ji?

Is anyone there?

What are you doing there?

I was just watching.

What ?

I've already been here.

Do you remember? You
cooked with your aunt.

Go tell him I'd like to talk to him.

Auntie went to the market.

You don't have a gun?

No.

Did you arrest the boy?

Yes.

Weren't you afraid?

A little.

Why did he kill the girl?

I don't know.

Poor thing was so
cute... and she got killed.

But her skin was black.

How do you know?

I saw her.

Where? Here ?

Auntie came home.

Meenu!

Did you give me a present?

Nothing replaces the love of a girl!

You disappear for a few hours
and she falls into your arms!

I can help you ?

I'm looking for the village chief.

She's my sister-in-law.

Enter.

The tea will be ready.

You are welcome.

I already told you not to play there.

SO ? What is happening?

Another animal
in the Dalit well.

A dog this time.

According to them, it
would be an act of malice.

They do this themselves.

A pretext to sow discord.

We definitely lack men,
in the police.

They send a woman alone.

All that for a dog in a well.

Remind me of your name?

Peacekeeper Saini.

- What Saini?
-Santosh.

- A guy's name.
- Yes!

It is also a girl's name.

I'm sorry.

I couldn't help you.

Anything else?

Your daughter spoke to me.

About Devika Pippal.

Oh yes ?

Sweetie.

This lady says you spoke to her?

What did you tell him?

Tell.

You told him that...

I make you guili-guili?

The kids!

And so...

Did Devika Pippal come here?

How so ?

There was a dead cat in their well.
She was able to come here to draw water.

Meenu says she saw her.

These people do not
have access to our wells.

We don't teach you anything,
at the police academy?

Yet she came.

It's possible. So what?

- When?
- I don't remember.

And you, Rampal?

We can't remember everything!

I forgot too.

Were you all there?

It was his birthday.

We ate cake.

He stuffed himself well!

Madame is serious.

It wasn't a birthday.
He's joking.

But it’s true that we celebrated.

Was it you?

And when even?

Was it you too?

This is what is being said.

It's famous here. We're
going to have a laugh.

Serve it.

What do you have?

Matar paneer, shahi paneer,
chilli paneer, kadai paneer...

A shahi paneer and dumplings.
With chapatis, then rice.

Tell me the truth.

Stories like the sorcerer,
were there many?

You were the one who wanted to find Saleem.

It didn't happen like that.

How, then?

You always knew where he was.

He had not “removed his SIM
card”. It was the same number.

I wanted you to find it alone.
I knew you were capable of it.

That night, at the slightest glitch,
Saleem could have escaped us.

I would have been discredited.

Did you prefer it to be me?

We showered you with praise!

I didn't know he was innocent!

You knew it.

There are two kinds of
untouchables, in this country.

The ones that no one wants to touch.

And those that no one
has the right to touch.

But what do you want?
We serve the powerful.

Look at it this way: in the eyes of

the world, justice has been done.

It's not nothing.

We killed an innocent man!

They made him a martyr.

Thanks to her death, men will

think twice before
attacking a woman.

But people have a right to the truth.

Devika's parents
have the right to know.

What would that help them do?

It would ruin the life of this
family and the entire village.

What is this?

Suspension of functions.

I was expecting a
transfer but I received this.

It's just your name.

I insisted that
you not be quoted.

You weren't even there.

Why humiliate yourself
again with a suspension?

Aren't women humiliated
enough like this?

What will become of you?

I don't know.

Indictment...
criminal sanction...

or discontinuance of proceedings.

I have friends in high places.
We'll see who remembers me.

I had always thought
of entering politics.

There is so much to do
for the cause of women.

For you, it will be fine.

Sooner or later, you will get advancement.

What else do you want to do?

Return to Mapur?

Go home to your
parents and cook?

Would you be happy?

At least tell me thank you.

Shall we eat?

Look at that!
The girl's haircut!

Hey, handsome guy!

Come a little closer.

Come here, Romeo!

A real collection of junkies! And
she waddles like a good woman!

- What are you making?
- Nothing, sir.

- Tell me what you're doing.
- Nothing, he says!

- Are you taking drugs?
- No, sir.

Get the hell out or I'll get off!

Let go.
Let's go to the park instead.

It's all over the place over there!

People don't even hide anymore!

Get out or I'll confiscate the bikes!

Where is she going?

Shall we have some tea?

Bring some tea!

Is anyone there?

Your attention please.

Mapur-bound train number 180056

is running with a delay of two hours.

The train to Mumbai Central
will arrive at the station.

Your attention please.

Mumbai Central
train number 140021

is ready for departure, track number 1.

Dry cakes!

Do you want some cookies, ma'am?

- How much is it?
- 10 rupees.

Can I see?

Pay, ma'am. Quickly !

Hurry up, ma'am.
