Hatred was my life's driving force.
Most people desire success.
I needed it.
Becoming a neurosurgeon,
raising Manthan to the level of India's best hospitals.
I needed to prove myself to my family.
The brain is the centre of human existence.
This fact has always fascinated me.
-Topper of the batch, Dr. Gauri Nath. -I wanted to be a brilliant doctor.
The Nath family's best doctor
because the love of the Nath family was my biggest need.
Dr. Yudhishtir Nath wouldn't even deign to glance at me.
This attitude of his seemed to me like an insurmountable wall.
An unbreakable wall.
But one day, everything changed.
You got hatred from your family.
And my family ignored me.
A big reason why I wanted to be a doctor.
And I wanted to do something for others.
You know, I...
always felt a bit incomplete when it came to my relationships.
After Dad's death,
how would the legacy of Dr. Yudhishtir Nath move forward?
At that point, even if a pet animal
was capable of carrying forward his legacy,
Dr. Yudhishtir Nath would've named it his heir.
I was his only choice.
But, for Dr. Yudhishtir Nath, only my talent
and my achievements were important.
Not me.
He was forced to accept me publicly,
but nothing had changed really.
But the truth is
now his legacy was in my hands.
I turned the hatred I received from the Nath family
into my strength.
And then you came along.
After you came, it's been magical.
You complete me.
You empower me.
And now we're going to create a revolution together.
I can't begin to thank you enough for coming into my life.
Me too.
Morning!
Don't you want any coffee?
How was your work trip with Gauri?
Oh, it was great!
Neil, coffee?
No...
I wanted to ask you something.
Okay, ask away.
Should I go to Indonesia?
What? Suddenly?
Yes, there's a new project. Wildlife...
I've never done anything like this before, so I'm thinking...
Then what happens to your Bhopal gas tragedy assignment?
Anyway, you're always quite busy.
What with all the responsibilities Gauri has entrusted you with.
I'm sorry.
She really trusts you.
You know, Neil...
I never expected I'd get so much exposure in Bhopal.
She's just doing so much,
and I just feel so lucky to be just working with her, you know?
You know, since that dinner I've been thinking,
-what kind of people are they? -Meaning?
I mean, her husband, Pratap,
is a very weird man.
I couldn't keep up a conversation with him for two minutes.
How does Gauri manage with him?
He is quite a character. Just ignore him.
Are they happily married?
Neil, she's my boss!
I don't get personal with her. Thank you.
What?
I don't want to cross boundaries by getting so personal.
It's very unprofessional, and you know I don't like it.
Really?
I thought you two were very... close.
I mean, we are. But not that close.
And what concern is their married life of yours?
Yeah, right.
One should focus on one's own marriage.
Absolutely.
I gotta go.
You have a good day, and...
I really appreciate you coming to dinner last night.
Your clothes were...
Whatever. But I forgive you. Okay?
You have a good day, bye. Bye, Vibha.
-Bye. -Bye.
Patient name, Ratan Gaekwad. Age, 52.
Diagnosed with atherosclerosis.
The drug that will be tested on you is called Saviour.
You have understood all the risks and benefits related to this trial.
And you are ready for this trial.
If you agree, please sign on this consent form.
We've started Phase 2 trials on ten more subjects at Manthan,
and they're responding very well.
In the next six months,
trials will be conducted on around 500 subjects.
And then we'll have a conclusive report.
In fact, our first patient, who was critically ill,
he's doing extremely well with the drug.
S93R is going to be a very successful drug for us.
You're right.
Let the Phase 2 trials continue.
And alongside that, start a fresh Phase 1 trial.
Only, on paper, the date should precede Phase 2.
Ravish, Ravish.
An additional Phase 1 trial means additional investment.
We've already spent way too much.
Then what's a little bit more?
Look, it's simple.
The more investment you can show into the research of the drug,
the higher its selling price in the market will be.
I'm sure we can do a Phase 1 trial again.
Maybe not in Bhopal. But Indore, Gwalior?
-I can handle this. -Excellent.
Gentlemen...
Saviour can be a money-making machine for us all.
-That feels so good. -Does it now?
Hurry up!
Listen, Roma Ma's calling you downstairs. Hurry up!
Neil.
Yeah.
Are you sure you don't want to have anything?
-Coffee-- -No, nothing. Thanks.
By the way,
your house is pretty cool.
I didn't really notice it the last time.
Thank you.
Actually, I'm very passionate about interiors.
Have a seat.
I'm really sorry, I should've called before coming.
It's okay.
You know, actually,
I've been thinking since a few days that
I should thank you.
I...
kept trying to fix the problem
without actually knowing what the problem was.
Neil, I'm very sorry, but I'm confused.
What are you trying to say?
Shalini, you've been such a good friend to Saira.
Thanks for being there for her.
Does Saira know that you're here to meet me?
I...
love Saira as well, Shalini.
Unfortunately, it is only now that I know her truth.
After so many years of marriage.
Neil, it's all very awkward for me.
What can I say to you?
You should talk to Saira.
Interiors is your passion, right?
And what about Saira's passion?
You?
Place them inside the ears.
From now on, I will speak to you through them.
Happiness is at your doorstep.
Tomorrow brings with it a brand new day.
I just need you all to be ready.
From today onwards, no one will step out of this house.
There's no need to be afraid.
Just for three weeks.
Hmm?
After all, we're one big family.
And that's how we'll be.
Just three weeks.
And then,
a new beginning.
I remember Dr. Shindey brought you over to Manthan.
So the fact that you would decide to join him was obvious.
And I really appreciate your loyalty.
I really do.
But...
Before taking such a big decision,
if you could've talked to me just once...
Maybe you're right.
Fidel will not keep any associations with Dr. Shindey anymore.
Of course.
Reputation matters.
Plus, this case is
about negligence.
Deceased patient Riya Sareen had an LTGA surgery scheduled.
Her parents claim serious negligence was involved in the matter.
Mr. Singh is representing them.
Was there any delay in Riya's diagnosis?
Following a seizure, Riya was brought to Manthan's emergency ward
by her parents.
All HODs were informed immediately.
A brain scan was done,
just to rule out any neurological issues.
Then, a cardiac surgeon from our cardiology department
suggested that we should also run an ECG test.
-So, this wasn't an HOD's response? -No.
Shindey did not want anyone else to steal his thunder.
We have exceptional doctors like you in the cardiology department
with spotless, outstanding reputations, but...
no one noticed it.
Dr. Shindey and Dr. Sabharwal were going to lead this case.
Two doctors for one case...
Tricuspid valve repair is a very complicated surgery.
I didn't want to take any chances.
And it was Dr. Sabharwal who suggested the ECG.
That's why I decided that Dr. Shindey would head this case
but with Dr. Sabharwal.
Please come back to Manthan.
We need you.
With Dr. Shindey out of the picture,
obviously Fidel will approach you.
But Fidel's institute currently exists only as a proposal.
There is no concrete deal between Nathu Lal and Fidel yet.
Dr. Shindey completely miscalculated Riya's date of surgery.
He couldn't even diagnose that Riya had endocarditis,
because of which we lost a lot of time.
Manthan's board needs one more director.
If... you...
come back to the cardiology department as an HOD,
then we can begin this procedure immediately,
and we can appoint you as a director of the board.
And you know,
after Elisir's launch, Manthan's brand value will increase.
Not just in MP, but...
people from the medical community across the world will know you.
Will know us.
Totally unexpected that Dr. Shindey,
an expert, senior cardiac surgeon,
could not diagnose this.
We have information that Dr. Shindey had already resigned from Manthan
and he was on his notice period.
Suddenly he was fired. Why?
My salary and annual increment
will be decided by me.
Of course, of course.
And, Gauri, I...
I don't want to be a dummy director.
I need full control.
And more importantly,
the management
should be between the two of us. No third person.
I just...
just don't want this Saira.
How was your working relationship with Dr. Shindey?
Everyone knows that Dr. Shindey is an extremely competent
and experienced doctor.
But, personally, I find his approach a bit conservative.
On the other hand,
Manthan always promotes new techniques and research.
It is the right place for any progressive doctor.
Please rethink your views on Saira.
She is a very good cardiac surgeon and a big asset to Manthan.
I also want there to be
trust and transparency between us.
But...
without Saira...
What is happiness? I want you to feel it.
And that very happiness,
you should give out to the world.
That's what I want for you.
And whatever I want
is only, truly, for you.
What is happiness? I want you to feel it.
Hello?
Speaking.
Hello?
Deepali?
What are you saying?
No.
I can't come.
-What is happiness? -We are in a lot of debt.
I want you to feel it.
How much can my father do alone?
And Meena doesn't go to school either.
Everything...
Everything now rests on my shoulders.
Do you know...
my mother...
And that very happiness
you should give out to the world.
-That's what I want for you. -What?
And whatever I want--
I loved her more than anything else.
it's my fault.
I was the one who injected her.
No.
You didn't do anything.
I was the one who got her for the trial, right?
Listen, Deepali.
Next time you go to the leper colony,
come straight to my house afterwards.
I can't talk anymore.
I don't know if I'll be able to call again, but--
Why would you say that?
If I call you, then please pick up.
Deepali, why are you talking this way?
Mangu...
You will forgive me, right?
All of you? Please?
Hello? Okay, listen to me.
Hello, Deepali?
Have you heard of Aspire?
The company that conducts trials?
I haven't spoken to anyone from a company.
Have you?
Well, someone must have called you to the trial?
Yes, this is it.
What I was talking about.
The person who sent you this message is a middleman.
Did they make you sign on a form during the trial?
I just need a copy of that.
The kids turn the form into a paper plane by evening.
Thank your stars nothing happened to you people.
If anything were to happen, you would really need that form.
What could be worse than living this life?
There's no bigger disease than being hungry, sir.
Now, if you'd please do me the courtesy of leaving. Please go.
But I...
I just need a copy of that form!
I hope they don't stop calling me if I give this form to you.
Don't you worry.
I will keep this to myself.
Who gets in touch with you for these trials?
Many people.
Whoever calls me, I go.
What do you mean they call and you go?
They're all taking advantage of you being illiterate.
If not yourself, at least think about these innocent kids!
I...
may need your help again in the future.
Do what you want with these.
Just bear in mind that I have to take care of these children.
Hello?
Vayu Pharma, Keshav. Yes.
The same people did the trial on Mangu's mom.
I have another original form for a subject from the same trial.
Do one thing.
Talk to the public prosecutor.
Compile all of Mangu's mom's reports,
including the post-mortem report.
These people will go to jail on murder charges.
Listen, I've just reached, okay?
Saira, Neil knows about you.
-I know he knows. -I've gotta go. Bye.
-Hello. -Hi, Vibha.
Hey.
Fuck.
What a day, man.
Fuck, I need a drink.
You're in the wrong profession.
You should've been an actor.
What?
I saw you two kissing.
Neil, I'm so sorry you had to see that. I'm so sorry.
It was quite shocking for me too!
I didn't share it with you, but...
That Gauri?
Her behaviour is extremely weird from the day I started here.
And that day...
we were discussing Riya Sareen's death.
She was feeling so low, and the next thing I know
she just started kissing me!
How much will you lie?
Am I blind?
Or a child?
I know what was happening there!
You've never kissed me like that before.
Neil, I had to do it!
And I don't know how I did.
It was just such a strange feeling.
She sits across from me and tells me she'll make me the HOD permanently.
And then she
just comes forward and kisses me and...
tells me to kiss her back.
She just put me in a spot. I...
I was scared, Neil. She's Gauri Nath.
Neil!
Neil, listen to me.
Riya Sareen or HOD?
First, at least decide what you were talking about.
You're still lying.
And...
you know I met Shalini today, right?
She must have informed you by now
since you both are so close.
You're a lesbian, right?
Everything about you is starting to make sense to me now.
Crystal clear.
Neil, you went to meet Shalini? How embarrassing is that?
And you don't know Shalini either.
Do you know she's been after me ever since I came to Bhopal?
Just because she has come out in the open with whatever she is,
she thinks she can approach anyone!
Stop playing your victim card, Saira!
I know how innocent you are!
I can trust a stranger I meet on the street, but not you.
Victim card?
Neil, you're saying this?
Do you know what happened to me as a child?
What do I know?
Was I there?
I meet real victims of sexual abuse, Saira. Many of them.
And because of people like you, people don't believe them.
Do you have any dignity left in you?
How dare you, Neil!
You're questioning my trauma!
God.
Your trauma...
Gauri, Shalini...
Whoever it is.
I don't care about any of them, Saira.
And nor do I have a problem with anyone's sexuality.
I wish you had just told me the truth.
I would've done anything.
I would've tried and made things work.
I surely would have.
But, as usual, you just fucked it up.
You fucked it up.
What do you think of this children's park, sir?
Seized land from a children's park
is being used to benefit international conglomerates.
No.
I will not let this happen.
What do you think?
Who is this heart institute being made for?
For the poor people of this state?
Tell me?
As a responsible Health Minister,
I hereby resign from my post
and my primary position as a party member.
Nathu Lal is leading the innocent gullible public of this state astray
by colluding with the capitalist machinery for his own benefit.
Now, you tell me.
Should Nathu Lal and the companies associated with him
be let off scot-free?
I've managed to get Swarup back to Manthan.
Now, if the Fidel Group hires a doctor
from outside the state of Madhya Pradesh, then...
it'll be one more issue for you to raise.
I will make my next announcement on Vishwakarma Day.
This will assuage the trust of the business community.
The business community isn't going anywhere.
Pratap will handle that.
What's wrong?
Not in the mood?
You know, the situation is extremely sensitive.
You should handle it.
Everyone's looking for a shot at destroying your reputation.
Your image is everything.
Spend some time with Vantu.
Leave the politics to me.
Very soon I'll be the Chief Minister of this bloody state.
Nobody will be able to touch the two of us.
Don't force it.
Force? I don't think you've ever seen the full extent of my force.
I gave you Rs. 120 crore. I don't need to give you anything else.
There's a difference between being forceful and being foolish.
You're a politician, right?
Behave like one.
Hi.
Riya's parents are going to file a case against Dr. Shindey.
They should've done it earlier, but...
You should read the Ethics Committee report.
The drug is doing so well.
Just so glad you're with me; thank you.
What is it, baby?
Did something happen... with Neil?
He saw us.
What did you say?
Nothing.
I didn't know what to say.
Is it necessary that we live according to the rules of society?
Don't we deserve happiness?
I feel so helpless, Gauri.
Tell Neil the truth.
End this marriage of lies.
Set yourself free.
Strength comes from uniting as one.
Strength comes from feeling.
All of you have to feel the same thing at the same time.
And that is happiness.
That, too, eternally.
This is strength.
From now on, we will live the way we always should have.
We will experience the bliss of sharing homes with family
and all the other joys that have been denied to us so far.
Me too.
And you all will keep on dancing and swaying.
Out of sheer happiness.
This is my dream for all of you.
And for me.
I got Dr. Swarup back to Manthan.
Thank you so, so much for this.
So, I saved Manthan.
Want to join us?
Maybe we could go out for dinner someday?
I'd love that.
Okay.
I'll check my schedule and get back to you.
Listen, baldie.
You can fool Pathan, not me.
Fucking prick, you said you'd be back in two days?
If this place isn't sparkling clean and spotless,
then I'll fuck you with a six-inch knife.
You people are used to slacking off.
The son runs off to escape a gambling debt, and his father?
His motherfucking father runs from work!
Come on, asshole, wash the dishes. Keep working.
And if I see you indulging in some dirty business,
I'll send you both to meet his dearly departed mom.
Motherfucker!
Fucker!
Six inches you said, you fucker?
Motherfucker! Take that!
Mangu! What have you done!
Run!
The eye problem that you and your grandson have...
This happened as a result of the Bhopal gas tragedy? Right?
I'll take one close-up.
Damn it.
Mangu, wait, you asshole!
Omair, something terrible has happened. Please save us!
Take out the tyres!
No, no, they know where I live!
And Meena is at home alone!
Okay, I'll get Meena and Dad, and we'll come to your office.
Meena, Meena!
Wherever you are, whatever you're doing
leave everything and go to Omair's office right now!
But tell me what happened!
Just do what I tell you! I'll explain everything later!
Smile a little wider?
Look here, this way.
Dad, go faster! Go faster!
Brother!
