-Hey! -Oh, my God!
Shut up, bitch! Won't let me sleep in peace.
Sleep!
Yuck!
Uff! Why are you crying?
It's just toilet water, not acid.
Okay, listen, you get a bucket of water every two days.
You either wash your clothes or take a bath.
Wake up, sleepy heads!
Wake up now!
-Wake up! -Hey!
My son is sleeping.
So? Should I sing you a lullaby? Wake up!
Get up, everyone!
Hey, move!
What happened? Do you need an AC in the toilet?
Must be her first time seeing a toilet. Don't think she's seen one before.
Hey, make it fast. I can't hold it in.
Hey, go sit in your place.
Come on, move it. Move it.
Mornings is usually beaten rice, isn't it?
Eat what you get quietly!
Hey, I know the rules.
Breakfast means tea and beaten rice.
Rules, my ass.
You won't get breakfast. The rest of you, move it.
-Hey. -Come on.
If you're not going to eat it, give it to me.
My daughter will eat it.
Don't bother her.
-She's from my barrack. -So?
Is this your barrack?
This is the dining hall. You eat from my kitchen.
-So? Your father doesn't pay for this. -Oh!
Pushpa, don't say anything about her father. She'll take it to heart.
Out.
Out!
I know you.
Actually, I know Vijji quite well.
Don't worry. I can't stand that bitch either.
Eat it... for your child.
Even in jail they're playing Richie Rich
while the poor dies of hunger!
Hey, how dare you? Go!
Sudha, knock that bitch down.
What are you doing?
-What are you doing? -It's burning!
Stop it.
Take her to medical, quickly!
Come on.
Come along quietly!
Go to the kitchen.
If any of you start fucking around here...
I'll break your bones.
What happened? It's me, Ratna.
You here?
Who else? I didn't marry your mother you know!
How come?
Pick up my luggage. Come on.
Tell me, you call this a house?
You're such a well-known lawyer in Mumbai, and this is your house?
Everything's so messy.
You should've at least informed me.
I called you... many times. You never took my calls.
I was busy. I had no time.
Yes, but you could've told me over the phone that you were busy.
Where did you get money for the ticket?
I had saved money for our honeymoon secretly.
I thought I'd buy myself some goggles, jeans, top,
but that came in handy for the ticket.
Good morning, Nikhatji.
It's been a while since you've called me this early.
Madhavji, I'll come with you to meet Anu Chandra.
But I'm only coming with you once to help you out.
I won't be fighting this case, okay?
Amazing, okay, okay. Wow, thank you so much.
You made me so happy, Nikhatji.
Do you know
this is the best thing to have happened to me this entire week?
You also got married this week.
Yes, yes. I'll see you tomorrow at 11 o'clock. Okay.
Who was that on the phone you were talking to?
Am I under investigation now?
You've barely been here five minutes and already want to know everything,
who I talk to, what I do.
Go, do whatever you want.
Looks like I will have to start with the cleaning.
This... this will take up all my time.
Listen, please go back to Bharatpura.
Once I'm done with this case, I'll bring you back.
Please.
Please leave.
Lawyer sahib. Let's get one thing straight.
I'm not going back home to spend my honeymoon with your mother.
-That's it. -Hey...
Who comes to Mumbai for a vacation?
Most people are dying to get out as soon as the weekend rolls in.
I'd like to see it for myself too.
You're like a coconut that's fallen on my head.
Yes, but you know coconuts have sweet cream inside them too.
Okay, my sweet cream.
-Today, I'll take you to LTT. -LTT?
-Is it a park? -Lokmanya Tilak Terminus.
That's where the train for Bharatpura is parked.
I'm going to the bathroom.
You're lucky the tea wasn't that hot.
Put a lot of ointment on the burn.
But I don't have a cure for this, Sudha.
Number 978. Anuradha Chandra.
Come, sit.
Hundred by sixty.
Very low.
I hope you're eating properly?
You're still taking medication for your anxiety and depression, right?
-I stopped once I got pregnant. -Why?
No. Don't stop like this.
I'll give you a very mild dose.
Then we'll stop it in the second trimester.
Just take it quietly.
What is this? Moon-sun sandwiched
-between neighbours? -I'll tell you.
I can never understand it.
Did you take it? Show me.
Good.
Come back to the office at the same time tomorrow.
Throw out the papers of the last two days.
-Okay. -And until I tell you,
-don't get any more newspapers. -Okay, madam.
Take this.
-Morning, dear. Come. -Good morning.
Don't like it?
Tell me what you want to eat.
Bharat Singh will make it in a jiffy.
You will get used to being here.
When are we going to see Dad?
I will take you there soon, but...
right now, he needs the rest.
And you need to eat some food.
Grandma, is the Internet not working here?
It's down.
But I'll get somebody to fix it.
Don't worry. Come on. Eat something.
What are these pills for?
-Yes? -What's in your hand?
You went to see the doctor, right?
-What-- -It's a pill for anxiety.
Anxie... What is that?
If you get too nervous, that's called anxiety.
Show me.
Why didn't you tell me before?
I have the same problem you're talking about I've got anxatree.
-No, but-- -No, if there's a pill that can rid of anxiety,
-then I want it. -You can't take it like that.
-Give it to me, just give it, come on. -You can't take it like that.
I want to reduce my anxatree.
Water?
Great.
Why are you so scared?
Everyone here has committed some crime or the other.
Look at Pushpa.
For dowry, she doused her sister-in-law in kerosene and burnt her alive.
She and her brother.
And that's Rekha.
She's a Naxalite.
For three weeks, they tortured her.
Raped her.
After that, she either fights with everyone...
I'll thrash you!
...or keeps reliving that nightmare.
-What do you think... -Hey!
And that's Ishani, the hi-fi lizard.
Are you okay?
Stay away from her.
She's a very dangerous woman.
She pushed her father down a gorge and killed the idiot.
And then she took over his company.
The case has been on for three years
and, yet, no punishment. You know why?
She has a lot of money. A lot.
You have a lot of money too, right?
Dollar-shollar, huh?
Are you mute?
She's coming over here, that witch. I don't want to talk to her.
Have you ever worked in a kitchen?
Yes.
Good.
One of my staff is getting released.
Why don't you start next week?
Is there a problem?
I need to go to the toilet.
Oh. So, go.
Just close your eyes and nose.
Hey, Rajjo!
Clean the bathroom, please.
-Poor thing can't use it. -Why should I?
Come on, do it.
Do I look like a servant?
If I say yes, will you take offence?
Hey, madam!
I know where your marijuana comes from.
You show me attitude, and I'll cut off your supply.
And Anu's medical records?
Bikram didn't want any medical records.
He requested me to treat her privately.
Why?
Maybe he didn't want people
to pry into his and Anu's lives.
I mean, since he's a public figure.
How do you know Anu and Bikram?
We have some common friends.
And my daughter, Riddhi, and Rhea are best friends.
How long have you been treating Anu?
About four years now.
Was there any trigger?
One time, Anu, in the middle of traffic, left the car on and just ran back home.
-Meaning? -She said she was under pressure.
It was basically an anxiety attack.
Thank you.
Did you know Anu is pregnant?
No, Anu didn't tell me.
Dr. Singhvi, that night, before he lost consciousness,
Bikram said something.
Just one word.
"Moksh."
Any idea why he took your name?
No.
But he had come here to drop Riddhi that night.
But I can't think of any reason why he would mention my name.
Anyways, let's hope he recovers soon...
and tells us himself.
-Here you go, bhai. -Madhavji, what time is this?
Sorry, sorry, what could I do? I got hit by a coconut.
-Huh? -Come.
-A coconut fell on my head. -What?
-I'm not hurt. -Come on.
-Madhavji. -Yes?
I'm reminding you again I can't join you in this case.
I'm just helping you find a defence angle.
Okay, thank you very much. Nikhat Hussain, Madhav Mishra.
So, what made you change your mind?
All thanks to my mother.
That reminds me, Anuji is pregnant.
Come on. Let me go. What happened?
Hey! Sir...
Sir.
Hello, sahib.
Sahib, let me go. I've got 60 grams of the stuff. Take it all.
-Sir! -You think we're morons?
-No, sahib. -You think we're morons?
No.
Who is this?
Sahib, sahib, who are they? Sahib!
Motherfucker, this photo was taken by the narcotics guys.
Now, quickly identify them or you're screwed for life!
I'll tell you, sahib, I'll tell you.
Sahib, this is Monty.
The other one?
And the other?
Sahib, I swear on my mom, I don't know the other one.
Where can we find him?
Sahib, Monty's gone underground.
Since when?
Since a day or two.
One of his big clients has had some issue.
He disappeared after hearing about it.
Sahib, I swear on my mother. I don't know.
Let me go, sir.
Sir...
-Sir... -I'd better not see you around in this area.
Okay, sir.
-Understood? -Yes, sir.
Thank you, sahib.
This is Nikhatji. My colleague.
I was there at the magistrate court yesterday.
I'm sorry you didn't get bail.
Has Bikram woken up?
No.
Are you worried about him?
What do you think, Anu?
What would Bikram say once he wakes up?
-I love him. -Huh?
She loves him.
They'll be happy without me.
Who is "they"?
Bikram and Rhea...
once I get punished.
No. Look...
our job is to save you from punishment
and to reunite you with your family.
I don't think they would want me back.
You... did you know that you were expecting?
I mean... that you are pregnant.
Anu, how did you and Bikram meet?
In college.
He proposed to me.
I was an arts student.
Arts.
You...
If you don't mind me asking,
why do you take anti-depressants?
Huh?
I was depressed.
He was taking care of me.
I...
-I... I would forget... -What would you forget?
Everything.
Gas, switching off the geyser, locking the door, ice cream...
Ice cream?
If I hadn't forgotten the ice cream that day, then...
If you hadn't forgotten the ice cream, then what?
What would have happened, Anu?
I wouldn't have disappointed him.
What had happened? What disappointment?
I didn't see the list.
What list?
I don't know. Don't remember.
-I don't remember. -Come on, time's up!
Come on, now!
I want to meet Rhea.
-I will try. -Come on, leave now.
Hurry up. Go!
Get back. Come on.
Tell Rhea it's chrysalis.
-What? -"Chrysalis"?
We were doing the crossword that day.
The caterpillar's home was nine letters.
I had said silk nest.
The right word is "chrysalis."
-Okay. -"Chrysalis."
-Okay, you write the spelling down for me. -Sir.
Come, let's go.
What do you think?
Madhavji, I get the feeling...
she wasn't happy in her marital life.
I feel like she wasn't happy with her life either.
In this case, I think they're both the same thing.
See what happened because of you?
Madam finally opened her mouth.
That's the advantage of being a woman.
Madhavji, this is as far as I go.
From here, you are on your own.
Okay, a one-man-army can't win a battle,
but I'll try my best.
Should I build the case on mental instability?
Madhavji, did you feel
like she didn't want to go back home?
Well, she is in here for stabbing her husband.
Not for chopping vegetables.
Do you think a woman who repeatedly says
that "I love him, I love him"
can suddenly get up and stab her husband like that?
Meaning that the problem isn't with Anu.
The problem is with Bikram Chandra.
I didn't say that at all.
But you are thinking it, right?
As far as I know, Bikram Chandra is a great guy.
These great guys are amazing. But nobody ever calls me a great guy.
Though sometimes I'm told I'm as harmless as a cow.
Madhavji, has your father...
ever raised his hand against your mother?
-Just once or more? -Yes.
"Don't say anything." "Do what you're told to do."
"You're my wife. I'm your husband."
"You're lying to me," et cetera.
Do these words seem familiar to you?
Yes, but there are no injury marks on her body?
Not all injuries scar the body, Madhavji.
Some leave a scar on the mind.
Anu Chandra's mind is wounded.
And if you find out how that happened...
then you will find your defence.
Do me a favour.
You're better than me in such matters. Why don't you lead the defence?
Madhavji, you can live as an outcast,
but I can't.
I'm a Mishra. Sarayu caste.
You?
The crow party? Don't you remember?
At least fix your doorbell, Lawyer sahib.
Otherwise hang a bell here.
Hello. You are...
His mistress.
Where's Mishraji?
Don't get so worried.
He's not my client. I'm his client.
-What do you mean? -I mean...
Forget it. Your husband was supposed to give me some papers.
That's what I'm here for.
He's not here. I could look for it?
Forget it.
You're new to the city, aren't you?
Don't be so wide-eyed and worried all the time,
or you'll get conned here.
How do you know that I'm new in town?
It's written all over your face.
I'll be back tomorrow to take the papers.
Stay right here. I'll be back in two minutes. Okay?
-Okay. -Listen to music until then.
Yes?
Is Rhea baby there?
-You are? -I'm a teacher...
-from her school. -From school?
Yes, yes, her exams are near, so I've got these notes to give her.
Rhea baby isn't at home. You cannot meet her.
Hey, uncle. Listen.
At least you can give her the notes.
And...
hand these over only to Rhea baby.
-Huh? -Fine.
Nice, they're good photographs, sir.
But what are you trying to say?
Pradhan...
Why does anybody go to a drug dealer?
I don't know, sir.
Must be collecting funds for the Ganesha festival.
-Don't talk nonsense, Pradhan. -Sorry, sir.
For a minute, let's assume Bikram Chandra used to take drugs. So?
Does that lessen Anu Chandra's crime?
No.
But it raises a lot of questions about Bikram Chandra.
Is his character as clean as we think it is?
To give the accused a chance, you will taint a great man's image.
-Why, sir? -The investigations have just begun.
Don't pass the verdict already.
We have to have a balanced approach, Pradhan.
The accused has confessed in the station and the court,
-and you're looking for balance. -I'm not looking for balance.
I'm looking for a motive.
-Which we still don't have. -We'll find it, sir.
Most definitely.
CHILDREN WELFARE DEPARTMENT- MUMBAI
You will have to learn the 12 times table.
First, you have to write it.
Rhea's statement needs to be recorded as soon as possible.
How did you get in?
Look, I don't have time for formalities.
This case has one witness, and we've been unable to talk to her yet.
Please co-operate.
I'll be back in two minutes.
Rhea's condition is still very sensitive.
She's going to start her therapy soon.
Once she gives her statement, no one will bother her.
Otherwise this case will drag on for ages,
which is not good for Rhea.
You'll just have to wait for her
because she is in no condition to speak with you.
Sorry.
Prajaktaji, do you have a personal grudge against me?
No.
But the way Rhea saw Anu in the police station
I don't think you will be able to handle her sensitively.
Okay, then.
If you're not going to give permission, then I'll have to go to your superiors.
Okay then. Do what you think is right,
and I will do what I think is right for Rhea.
Caterpillar's home?
Nine letters.
Chrysalis.
Silk nest.
Silk nest?
What have you done?
I've been cleaning since morning. Tell me, how does it look?
What was the need to rearrange everything? They were all important papers.
But everything was lying all over the place.
So, I just arranged all the papers properly. What's wrong with that?
That reminds me. Someone had come asking for papers.
-Sania. -Mirza?
Forget that. I had kept some FIR papers here.
Where is it? Find it.
You've misplaced everything.
-I'll see. -They were new.
Do you know what an FIR is?
Is this it?
Is that an FIR?
Have you ever gone to a police station?
Find it.
What was the need...
Oh, I had...
It's good that I had kept it safely.
Look...
Ratnaji,
my routine is totally fixed here.
My lifestyle is set.
I don't need another person in Mumbai.
So, dear Ratna...
you go back to Patna.
Stay in Bharatpura.
I'll come there once in six months just like everyone else.
The thing is, Lawyer sahib, I will not stay alone anymore.
How are you alone? You have my mother there.
I want a life with my husband.
This is a marriage, not a compromise!
Why are you getting mad?
Hey, what happened? Please don't be angry. Listen...
The bedroom is mine.
Sania was here. She's asked you to hang a bell outside the door.
The whole womankind has a problem with me.
Now, I'll sleep here. What the hell.
Wake up!
Sleepy heads!
Get up!
Wake up, everyone!
Take this.
Time to have your medicine. Take it.
-Water? -Yes, yes, have some water.
Your pills are a miracle, madam!
My anxatree has disappeared.
It doesn't work that quickly.
It takes a week.
After that, you'll feel good.
I feel so good right now.
It does feel like that in the beginning,
but the effect will wear off soon...
and you will feel low again.
Back in the dark again.
That's fine for me.
If I can fly in the sky even for a while...
that's enough for me.
Sanju!
That looks so beautiful.
Very beaut--
You're just like your dad!
First he loves you, then he breaks you.
Does he beat you?
Which man doesn't, madam?
I can deal with the beatings.
I could deal with whatever he did in bed too.
But Sanju...
Why?
Does he hit Sanju too?
He did a lot more than that with Sanju.
Bloody... Bloody motherfucker!
Why don't you leave him?
Why didn't you leave your husband?
What did he do to you? Hit you?
Had an affair?
Did he force you in bed?
You let him do it?
I didn't stop him either.
At least your husband married you first.
Mine didn't even bother marrying me.
Sir, Anu Chandra's call records.
That night, five calls were made from her phone.
First one to Bikram Chandra, second to her therapist...
You've met the therapist, right?
He's not a therapist. He's a psychiatrist.
He just gave her pills.
To whom was the third call?
-This... -India Life Insurance.
-Insurance? -Yes.
I had called them.
Anu, Bikram and Rhea are insured under the same company.
What did you find out?
It was an incomplete call, sir. The enquiry didn't get registered.
There are no call recordings either.
But we're tracing the employee who took the call that night.
-He's on leave at the moment. -So, we've found the motive.
What?
Kill the husband and take all the insurance money and...
If that's the case, then why would she surrender?
Maybe she got scared.
Maybe she took too many pills while planning this. Who knows?
Find out!
It's your job to find out all the facts
so that we can file a charge sheet as soon as possible.
Help me meet Rhea, and I'll get you all the facts.
Believe me.
Rhea!
Rhea, what happened?
-Rhea, what happened? -I hate her.
Rhea, wait!
Rhea, one second. Calm down. One sec...
I know. I understand.
ANURADHA CHANDRA IS TWO MONTHS PREGNANT.
I hate you. I hate all of you!
Rhea, please calm down. Please calm down, okay?
Shall we go out? You'll feel much better.
-Yes? -Grandma, give me your phone.
For what?
I want to call Prajakta di.
Why?
-I want to meet. -Who?
Mummy.
Rhea, look, you're very angry just now.
-This is not a good time to talk. -Grandma, just give me your phone!
-We need to think about this. -Grandma, give me your phone.
Hello, Mr. Talukdar.
I'm Nikhat Hussain. I used to work with Mandira ma'am.
I heard that you've started your own practice?
Of course not, sir.
I want to work with a reputed firm like Talukdar.
One of us has been attacked.
Not one lawyer agreed to fight this case.
You could've shown a little solidarity.
-Sir, trust me, I was just-- -I'm busy. Sorry.
Therefore we request bail on ground...
-"On the grounds." -Yes, on the grounds...
that she's not of sound mind.
One minute.
What happened?
-The last paragraph is remaining. -Hang on, there's a paragraph here too.
-What happened, Nikhatji? -Stay away, Madhavji.
-Nikhatji... -Madhavji, stay away from me!
I'm in enough trouble already, please.
What happened? Why are you angry?
Calm down. Tell me what happened? I will help you out.
My career is sinking trying to help you, Madhavji.
The entire lawyers' community has turned away from me.
Nobody is employing me.
Mandira ma'am will skin me alive when she comes to know of this.
You please...
It'll be best if you don't help me.
Okay? Please don't help me.
Okay. Have a seat. One second.
Nikhatji, take this. You'll need it. Wipe your face.
What happened? Tell me. Tell me.
Look, this is how you've helped me?
This... this is all your fault.
My fault?
No, I mean, you're listening to your head instead of your heart.
And see, Nikhatji, history is proof that...
whoever has changed the world was at some point an outcast.
Hold this one second.
Yes, Prajaktaji.
Really?
Okay, okay, thank you.
-Finally some good news. -What?
Rhea is ready to meet Anuji.
How?
You know that English word of yours. "Christopher"?
-"Chrysalis." -Yes.
-Take this. -No, no, keep it. You'll need it later.
-The tears of anger. -With you around, I'm sure.
What happened?
My focus is on the case.
You're a policewoman outside the house.
At home, you're my wife.
What?
Okay, I'll look into that.
-No, no, no... -What happened?
-Rhea wants to meet Anu. -So?
If Anu influences her and Rhea changes her statement, then?
The child probably just needs her mother.
I'm sure CWC will fast-track this.
I need to meet her before Anu does.
Do you have Nair madam's number from CWC?
My heart said something
Yet, it was nothing at all
My heart heard something
-Move it! -Yet it was nothing at all
Such things happen in life
My heart said something
She's calling you there.
-Go! I need to sleep! -Hey, let us sleep!
She's restless even at night.
I don't fucking believe this.
Such things happen in life
She's a living corpse.
Waiting for a grave.
Lie down.
Main barracks are too crowded.
Sometimes I come here to sleep.
I don't want to do anything with you.
Just need someone to hold.
And they all stink like toilets.
I'm sorry. I... I can't.
