[JK] 'Babu!'
Ali bhai! Come out!
There's nothing to fear. Come on out.
Look who's back.
Ah, this fragrance!
Smells like a currency note.
Am I right, Rawat sir?
Wait and watch.
Very soon...
...every marriage registration, every deal, every land agreement...
...will be executed on our stamp papers.
And all of this has been possible because of you all.
I was in jail...
...but you kept my dream afloat.
In my darkest time, you kept this paper inked.
You didn't abandon me.
I don't know how to thank you guys.
I've always told JK, Salim, and Zuben...
...that we have to become big.
We have to become so big that even the government...
...can never touch us.
As they say, you can't escape the long arm of the law.
Look at this, I have the law's arm in mine.
[people laughing]
I promise you all.
We will become so big...
...that not just the government's arms...
...even their imagination won't be able to reach us.
They call me Karim Lala. Do you know why?
They're always asking me for money.
"Karim, give us the money."
- How? - "Give, give."
- Karim Lala! - Karim Lala!
[Title Montage]
Jaisingh sir?
Are you Jaisingh?
Purushottam ji, he has asked a question.
What is the question?
He has asked where Jaisingh sir is.
That's what I want to know. Where is he?
Jaisingh.
We don't know where he is.
No, I'm Jaisingh.
[Inspector] 'I was looking for you, sir.'
[Jaisingh] 'What is this?'
It's the investigation report of the Telgi case, sir.
Four pages?
[Inspector] 'There are more files'...
...but we can't locate them.
Yes, gentlemen?
We're your SIT team.
I'm Purushottam Pant.
Retired superintendent, anti-corruption department.
And that's David Costavo...
[Purushottam] ...'retired class one officer'...
...Revenue Ministry, and that's...
Ashok Valve, typist. Retired.
[Ashok] 'Sessions court.'
Well, we didn't think...
...a young officer like you would be heading the SIT.
[Costavo] 'Young man'...
...which department are you from?
DIG, SRPF.
Valve sir, this is that type of inquiry.
Which type?
The one where everyone is a toothless lion.
We're all toothless lions.
[Ashok] 'Sir.'
This inquiry is a waste of time.
We'll spend years investigating this with the team.
[Ashok] 'We're retired. You're from the SRPF.'
This team is only for show. Let's go.
Where are you going?
We're going home, sir.
We came at 7:00 in the morning. Now, it's noon.
You're right.
[Suryapratap] 'I want to help you.'
But how do I trust you?
You shouldn't.
After all, it's a matter of 3000 crores.
Not 3000, 30,000 crores.
This case will go on for 15 to 20 years.
Half your team will be dead by then.
And my entire team would have retired.
We've been appointed just for show.
No one in the system wants us to investigate.
I have no personal grudges against anyone.
But what's the point in draining one's energy for no reason?
Which watch do you wear?
How come?
Hasn't a Rolex reached your desk yet?
I've understood one thing, sir.
Telgi is very smart.
He doesn't waste money.
My team and I are toothless lions.
[Jaisingh] 'That's what my team members said.'
So, making me an offer would be of no use to him.
That's why he's saving money.
[Boy] 'Please buy one, sir.'
- How much is it for, dear? - Two rupees only.
[Jaisingh] 'Give me two.'
I don't have change, sir.
Never mind, keep it.
Mom, he gave me one rupee extra.
Do you see that child, sir?
[Jaisingh] 'One extra rupee brought a smile to his face.'
It's not about 3000 or 30,000 crores.
It's about that one extra rupee, sir.
It's about national revenue.
It's about national security.
It's about national welfare.
So, I am definitely taking this personally.
I don't know about you.
What's this, sir?
This is my seven months of hard work.
Investigation.
And you got it for... peanuts.
[Jaisingh] "The Maharashtra SIT submits"...
a primary report of investigation within the first six months."
This news won't broadcast today but six months from now.
And you all can be a part of this.
Yes.
The stamp paper case...
...is exposed entirely.
Have a look, gentlemen.
You may be toothless...
...but a lion is a lion.
It may not be able to chew its prey...
...but it can still hunt.
[Pant] 'Mr. Madhusudan, we've found out'...
...'that when we compare the number of stamp papers printed'...
...'in the Nashik press...'
...to the actual registered transaction...
...in the entire Maharashtra state...
...the difference in revenue is huge.
Would you be kind enough to explain...
...why and how this happened?
Mishra ji.
Mr. Pant is trying to say that there is a huge gap...
[Ashok] ...'between the number of stamp papers printed here'...
...'and the number of papers registered outside.'
Almost 40%.
Ashok ji.
Mishra ji had understood the question.
Mishra ji is trying to come up with an answer.
Look, sir, the responsibility of distribution...
...is with the Old Custom House.
[Madhusudan] 'I am only responsible for the printing.'
All this confusion has begun since the arrival of the computer.
The staff isn't trained either.
When the "I love you" virus entered the system...
...Bharade ji was in great distress.
I have installed anti-virus in my system.
- Really? - Hmm.
Didn't Telgi give you an anti-virus?
Abdul Telgi.
S-Sorry? Telgi who?
You forgot him already?
That backdated stamp paper scandal...
You had testified, remember?
You had cancelled his licence too.
Oh, yes. Him... Yes.
Long time.
Do you know Suleiman Hussein?
You issued a licence to him too.
And then you revoked that too.
Well, sir, you see...
...I've issued and cancelled the licences of many people...
No, no. He used to be Abdul Telgi's partner.
It's for his murder that...
...Abdul Telgi has been visiting courts these days.
So, cancelling the licence of Telgi's partner...
...was a good thing, wasn't it?
That's true too.
Did you collect the DNA from the murder scene?
And the DNA of the parents?
How did the police know that Telgi was involved in this case?
What's the evidence?
Honestly, I can't remember.
Actually, Dombe and Rawat are handling that case.
What's the time, sir?
Let me see.
1:30.
[firecrackers bursting]
Is it a festival today?
Dombe sir, this is Khanapur.
My arrival here is equivalent to Diwali...
...Eid, and Christmas.
I'm Santa Claus here.
- [chuckles] - [firecrackers bursting]
I've been yearning to see this face.
[drums beating]
[clamour]
They're here for my security.
Dombe sir!
My mother.
Hello, ma'am.
Look how happy the old lady is.
Stop it. You'll get us into trouble.
We'd walk before people with our heads bowed down.
The same people are looking up to us today.
This moment is the only truth...
...that's ours.
And today, this moment...
...is my biggest gift to you.
I have a gift for you too. Take a look.
Abbu!
Give her your blessing.
She'll like it.
How far is the station?
We'll be there soon.
Remember the days when we'd run and reach in no time?
So, how's your health?
Well...
...as long as the business is good, Abdul is hale and hearty.
You tell me. What was so important that we couldn't talk at home?
Well, I wanted to talk about the future.
Future? Future is fantastic.
Everyone is in my pocket. No one can touch us.
I mean...
Look, I did everything that you asked me to.
- Hmm. - Whatever you said, I obeyed.
You walked ahead, and I followed you.
But I was left behind, Abdul.
I'm talking about my future.
Have you lost your mind?
I've sorted us out for generations.
Why are you worried about the future?
And where do I stand among these generations?
I have to ask you for even a few thousand rupees.
You say we have a lot of money, but where is it?
Do you know how much I have in my personal bank account?
Do you want to see my passbook?
Generations, my foot.
I can lend loans to several banks in India.
Stop complaining about passbooks and personal accounts.
Where's the bank? Where is it?
It's here. This is the bank.
And what happens when this bank shuts down?
You know your health, don't you?
And you know how our business is.
As long as this ship is sailing, we're fine.
But the day this ship sinks, what am I going to do?
You idiot, I'm going to teach business to your grandsons too!
You're talking about a ship? I'm here to conquer the ocean.
Stop with the dialogues now!
Look, Abdul, I was foolish earlier. I didn't understand anything.
But I understand everything now.
I know you established this business...
...but I've worked hard for it too.
I've toiled in it.
I got arrested. I got slapped.
What did I get for it?
- You want a price for it? - Yes.
You want a price for it? You're still a f*****g fool!
- You want a price for it? - Hey, Abdul!
- Don't touch me! - Are you crazy?
And don't you dare speak, or I'll hit you with my shoe!
- Abdul! - You want a price for it?
You want a price for it! You...
You want a price for it? Come here!
Come here!
[train honking]
[song playing]
Zuben.
- Zuben. - Yes, bhai.
- Get a pen and diary. - Okay.
[song playing]
Get the mic.
[song playing]
Hello. Check, check.
[Abdul] 'Hello.'
I'm very happy today.
Very happy.
I used to live right there.
I wasn't lucky enough to get two meals a day.
This...
We'd yearn to eat a spoon of halwa.
That's why eat to your heart's content today.
Drink to your heart's content.
And remember...
...one's fate can turn any minute.
Mine has turned so drastically...
You're all witnessing it.
That's why, today, anyone can ask for anything they want.
- Did you get the diary? - Yes.
He'll keep an account.
Remember, I'm not distributing alms.
I'm spreading joy.
Whatever you want, just ask for it.
Come in a line. Form a queue. Just ask.
One by one. In a queue.
Just ask. Come.
[song playing]
Young man.
You seem to be from the police department.
Oh, my God!
Uncle, how did you know that?
Son...
...it's very easy for one person from the department...
...to recognise another.
[song playing]
[Jaisingh] 'We've been looking for you for four days.'
You don't go to work at all.
So, we thought we'd come and meet you at your favourite place.
Sorry, sir.
Don't worry. We won't inquire here.
We need Suleiman's case file.
We'll come to the station tomorrow. Be present.
Sir.
If the robbers caught on Pune Highway were innocent...
...what were they doing in the vehicle...
...in which stamp papers were found?
Maybe they were framed.
Maybe?
But you just declared them innocent?
Would you be kind enough to answer a question?
How does the math of "possibility" work?
- It was a mistake. - What mistake?
A mistake is a mistake. There's no explanation.
[Suri] 'I think, we'll have three teams in all.'
The first team will go towards the north.
- Ravi... - Sir.
Come.
I know I was to meet with you today.
But I'm slightly busy with work.
Let's meet in a day or two?
Rawat, serve them some tea.
Would you like tea, sir?
- It's okay, sir. We'll come later. - [Suri] 'Okay.'
[Dhumal] 'What is this inquiry about?'
It's nothing, sir. An internal inquiry of the department.
It is, isn't it?
Then we are both out of its scope.
When I told you I wanted a toothless lion...
...that's what I meant.
We have a political alliance in Karnataka...
...but Telgi is our nuisance-alliance.
You know what needs to be done, Jadhav.
Yes, sir.
You seem to have worked very hard.
Yes, sir. Because I knew that...
...you were eagerly waiting for this report.
That's why I informed you as soon as the report was ready, sir.
Well, your report is quite lengthy. I don't have the time to read it.
Tell me in short. What's in this inquiry report?
Sir, in short, from constable to commissioner...
...everyone was involved with Telgi, sir.
[Jaisingh] 'Some government officers are involved too.'
'Mr. Bharade. Madhusudan Mishra.'
And sir...
...some are your friends too.
I'm sure you have supporting evidence...
...for the names mentioned in this report?
Yes, sir.
This contains a detailed description of the accusations...
...the evidences we have, and the action to be taken...
[Jaisingh] ...'against all the names mentioned in it, sir.'
I need to submit this report to CM ma'am as well.
We can take action after that, sir.
Hold on. This is going to cause a stir.
I'll talk to CM ma'am myself, okay?
[PA] 'Sir.'
There have been two blasts in Zaveri Bazaar.
[Reporter 1] Three bomb blasts took place...
...in the city of Mumbai this evening.
Mumbai Police have launched an investigation.
Commissioner Suri hasn't issued a statement yet.
- Sir, sir... - Sir, sir...
[journalists shouting]
Everyone's names are on the list. Even Halani and Suri.
The country is in trouble.
There is no bigger news than this.
We have people in the media, right?
Yes.
Tell them to run news about these blasts for the next 15-20 days.
If Mumbai Police catch the terrorists...
...they'll be respected like heroes.
Sir, this is the first thief...
...who has managed to handcuff policemen and class one officers.
Golden handcuffs.
So, you saw the watches?
I saw a lot more than that, sir.
The report is ready...
...but Telgi can't be touched in Mumbai or Maharashtra.
On one hand, the state government has a hold over the centre.
'And on the other, Telgi's been partying.'
Pizzas are being delivered to his home.
What's your proposal?
Sir, I want to change Telgi's address...
...so that the home deliveries can stop.
Eat. Have fun.
[Abdul] 'You've only eaten local snacks till date, right?'
Eat a burger now.
[Krushnaraj] 'Confiscate all the phones.'
Look, you can't stop an ongoing investigation midway.
'Take him.'
- Come on. - Hey, don't touch me.
Come on!
Jaisingh sir, what are you doing?
You're sabotaging an investigation by Mumbai Police.
- Am I? - 'Yes.'
This team is involved in a high-priority case...
...and you two are trying to intervene.
Actually, you're the one intervening in our case.
You're looking for Abdul Karim Telgi, aren't you?
Come. Take a look. Check.
Are you convinced now?
Where can we meet CP Suri?
Why?
We want to complain about you.
What did you do? What did you do?
Our duty, sir. We just arrested one accused as per the law.
But sir can't tell the media...
...that we broke jail to catch Telgi, right?
And he definitely can't say that we arrested him from his house.
Do you think this a joke?
No. We have two conditions, sir.
First, you must suspend Rawat and his team tomorrow.
And second...
You will officially...
...hand over Telgi's custody to Karnataka Police.
Anyway, Telgi is not in Maharashtra.
[Jaisingh] 'You can't do anything now, sir'.'
[Suri] 'In the last one week, the Mumbai police have arrested'...
...'over a hundred people associated with'...
...'various extremist organisations.'
We have five suspects...
...whom we've identified, and they've been arrested.
And I promise you that Mumbai Police...
...will not sleep till we've been able to get through...
...to all these masterminds who are solely responsible...
...for this heinous attack.
- Sir, you're not allowed. - I have a permit.
Sir, you can't go in. You're not allowed.
- Sir... - [cell phone ringing]
- Hello? - If you want...
...a bigger piece of news than the bomb blast...
...then meet me at Worli Joggers Park in 30 minutes. Okay?
Who gave you this?
Hey, listen...
[Jaideep] 'Sanjay.'
Are you sure about this?
I mean these policemen are practically heroes...
...after their arrests in the twin blasts case.
I'm a hundred percent sure.
If we were to go about this, if...
...do you know what the implications would be?
Sir.
A reporter isn't known for a 100 good reports.
He is known for one bad report.
This would be the end of my career...
...if I wasn't a hundred percent sure, sir.
So, how do we go about this?
I will interview Suri.
I'll start with the blast, and end it...
...'with this report.'
Sir, if you don't mind...
...I want to discuss an important topic with you.
Sure, go ahead. Ask what you want to.
Sir, we've come to know of a special report...
...which talks of a stamp paper scam worth crores of rupees.
Look, I have no idea...
...which report you're referring to.
Sir, according to this report...
...many reputed officers from your department...
...are involved in this...
...who have been in contact with Abdul Karim Telgi...
[Sanjay] ...'who is also the mastermind of this scam.'
And sir...
...your name is also mentioned in this report.
The investigation report accuses the entire police department...
...of being negligent on purpose, in the investigation...
...of counterfeit stamp paper scam.
It also questions the delay on charging Telgi with MCOCA.
[Sanjay] The investigation report also states...
...that the Karnataka Police...
...have phone recordings of conversations...
...between Abdul Karim Telgi and DCP Halani...
...in which Halani is heard demanding...
...crores of rupees from Telgi.
For improper investigation and supervision of the case...
[Sanjay]...23 police officers have been found guilty...
...including Jagdish Suri.
The report also states...
...that the Security Press situated in Nashik...
...is full of loopholes when it comes to security.
And finally, Pramod Jaisingh has questioned...
...the entire stamp paper distribution system...
...and has proposed that new rules need to be formed...
...for investigating economic offences...
...like they formed during the 1992 stock market scam.
The Pramod Jaisingh report.
This report clearly notes the scale of corruption in the state.
The entire assembly is aware of this.
But no one is investigating this.
I want this to be investigated...
...and whoever is involved in this should resign immediately.
Not just that, the entire cabinet must resign.
If that doesn't happen...
...then I will lead a protest in this very assembly!
Hey, Mumbai Police are not challenging for your custody.
[phone ringing]
[Suri] Sir, Commissioner Suri here.
Yes. Note down the address.
[Jadhav] 'Bhiwandi.'
'GICD, plot 47, Metro Enterprise.'
[Suri] 'Stamp papers worth 2000 crores have been confiscated.'
'Our brave officers of the Mumbai police'...
...'risked their lives to execute this undercover operation.'
'Today, our actions are louder'...
...'than any words on any report.'
'We have been given orders by the honourable High Court'...
...that we are supposed to collect all the evidence...
...that has been put together by the investigative agencies...
...of the Karnataka police.
This means, from now on, the Karnataka police...
...and the Mumbai police will work hand in hand, together.
Abdul bhai.
We're in for the long haul this time.
If I knew about this Jaisingh's report...
...I'd have bought him out much earlier.
That rascal Jadhav got his own warehouse raided.
[chuckles]
Kamble, JK, take it easy.
This is what I wanted.
Everyone is scared of me today. Do you know why?
Because everyone in the country knows my name.
The question is, which names do I know?
Everyone is petrified of what I might say.
No one can touch me now. No one.
[laughs]
[whistles]
Don't worry.
[whistles]
