After Dad died, I couldn't stop crying.
And after Udai...
I couldn't stop eating.
We all have different mechanisms to cope with grief.
Basal ganglia.
That's where it hits us in the brain.
I lied to him, Gauri.
Incessantly.
Lies on top of lies.
I lied to him his whole life.
He even died thinking that he was at fault.
He wanted a child.
I made a fool out of him all his life.
He asked me over and over again,
but I was never able to tell him the truth.
He was able to leave the world's most dangerous place unharmed.
But here, in Bhopal, outside that NGO...
This is ridiculous, Gauri.
He came to Bhopal for me, because he wanted a family!
For me, he came to Bhopal.
He didn't have a girlfriend, Gauri.
I lied that day.
To you too.
You must be tired.
I'll tell everyone outside that you're sleeping.
No!
There's no need to lie on my behalf.
Come on, let's go.
Hey, what are you doing? The bus is going to leave!
They're the actual bad guys, and we're the ones running?
This doesn't sit right with me one bit.
None of this is our fault.
Do you even know if that man is alive or dead?
We were to get our compensation; we've lost that too.
I was the one in restraints, thanks to Ma.
I did what I thought was right. That's it.
Don't come after me.
Rage can burn a person inside out.
It blinds you.
So, it is vital that you get it out.
Not just one...
I say that
you should've killed them all.
If it were up to me,
I would've killed and buried those motherfuckers right there.
Omair is calling again and again.
He's saying that
we should give the police the full story,
right from the beginning, everything.
But he doesn't understand how risky that is.
What if the cops throw us in jail?
He says that...
he will get us the compensation money.
All this is middleman bullshit.
Do we have even a single rupee yet?
For people like us, there's no justice.
Only punishment.
Biscuits, cold drinks, cold water bottles?
Snacks?
And empty pockets.
After buying the tickets, we don't have a single rupee left.
Stop, Ma! Please stop!
Were you trying to run?
No!
Never!
He was talking to me in a nice way.
He was looking at me, and...
nothing else, Ma, nothing at all!
He was looking at you?
How?
How Badke Baba used to look?
Is that what you want?
Is that what you want to go back to?
No, Ma!
Ma!
This is what Badke Baba used to beat you with, right?
You want to forget everything,
but you're making the same old mistakes.
Sometimes it is necessary to help you remember.
Balram Singh's signed statement.
Prior track record: extortion,
robbery, armed theft.
We're looking for his boss.
Neil wasn't even remotely associated with these people.
This senseless violence has to stop!
Madam, he'll go in for five years at least.
Five years?
That's not enough! That's just not enough!
How can you say that?
Madam, the investigation is still underway,
and I'm sure other offences will come up.
The case is strong.
It could be a 10-15 year sentence as well.
What do you mean "could"?
He shot my husband!
Neil would've been alive today
if you had kept people like Balram Singh in jail!
Madam, we will not leave anything undone on our part.
You don't need to do anything.
Now whatever needs to be done, I'll do it myself.
And if required, I'll get an army of lawyers
and I'll make sure that Balram Singh
fucking rots in jail!
Ms. Saira...
OP...
I'm so sorry.
It was a short time, but...
we developed quite a friendship with Neil.
That...
This is Mangu and Meena.
Hi.
The bullet wasn't meant for him;
it was meant for me.
I...
Those thugs were after you?
We took a loan from them for Mom's treatment.
We couldn't pay it back in time, and--
And Neil got shot by mistake in the process, right?
Oh, my God.
Those people made our lives a living hell.
They did such disgusting things to my dad...
After Ma died,
my tolerance had reached a tipping point.
It's not even...
It hasn't even been a week.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Ms. Saira,
Neil was with us when their mother died.
Drug trial victim of S93R, Saviour.
Oh, my God...
Oh, my God.
Ranu...
You turned out to be a feisty one!
Roma Ma told us everything.
How did you even fall into a man's trap?
Don't you know men are the root of every problem?
You didn't learn anything?
Please untie my hands and legs now...
Kusum, look how much blood there is!
That's why we're here.
Ma loves you a lot,
so she's offering you one more chance.
Stop your foolishness, and live within the rules.
Now, if you don't eat your food
or do anything untoward,
you will not get forgiveness.
She's drugging us!
And lying to us!
About erasing our pain.
Ranu, do you remember
you said we were changing?
You were right.
What's happening with us is so wrong!
Deepali,
the bad things happening to us have already come to pass.
There can't be anything worse than the hell we used to live in, and...
now we're out of there and free,
and very soon we'll be free from the trauma it caused us.
I am telling you; listen to me carefully!
-Yes? -Make her understand.
Right. Yes, Ma, we're trying to make her understand.
But she's still so scared.
She just doesn't want to forget her trauma, so she's fighting back.
You were right, Ma.
-Vibha, get some more. -Yes.
Sorry, due to the mourning period, there's no food cooked in the house.
What is the guarantee that these papers are genuine?
The nurse who injected my parents at the camp sent it to me herself.
She came to our house.
She saw Ma's condition and tried to help me.
She lives in a housing facility with the other nurses.
If you want, I can take you there.
Ms. Saira, Neil's death is connected to this trial too.
Have a look at Mangu's mother's autopsy report.
Neither Aspire nor Vayu Pharma
have given them any compensation yet.
In fact, we just found out that they are involved.
Because they are uneducated,
they were exploited by the people running the camps.
They even took away their consent forms.
And under the pretext of curing them,
they prescribed vitamin pills.
So, their mother's condition just kept getting worse.
We almost left Bhopal, miss.
But what would we do in our village?
What would we eat?
Compensation is our right.
Which is why we came back to Aarogya Uday.
When we gave the cops our statement,
they detained our father.
Our father hasn't even done anything.
-Meaning? -Meaning someone has to fight, miss.
My father isn't up to fighting, so I'm taking it up.
And he...
He's over there paying the price for my mistakes.
I'm so sorry.
Everything that happened to your family is not right, and...
I will do whatever I can do to help.
Ms. Saira, could I have a minute?
You guys eat something.
Ms. Saira.
Phase 2 trials for Saviour are going on at Manthan.
Look, I just have one request. Just once...
please talk to Dr. Gauri Nath.
With your and Dr. Nath's help,
their voices can reach companies like Aspire and Vayu Pharma.
It's not just them. There are many families like this
who are suffering because of Phase 1 trials.
There are more people?
Ms. Saira...
they have the right
to demand compensation.
OP, can you arrange for me to meet the other families?
Yes, why not?
This drug trial should be halted, following an investigation.
This trial has benefited many people.
You understand that better than me.
They're human, Ms. Saira.
But they're treated worse than guinea pigs over there.
Someone should be answerable.
Yeah, there's a zip folder.
So, subject reports of Saviour Phase 2,
Aspire Phase 1...
I need.
And I also need the chemical composition sheet,
Ethics Committee findings, everything.
I'm working on a research paper.
Anything to keep myself distracted.
Thank you so much, Raghav. You take care. I'll see you. Bye.
Hello, Mr. Ahuja? How are you?
Me? I'm fine, I'm fine.
You saw those Saviour reports on the pen drive, right?
So, the Saviour data in it, that--
Hello?
Hello? Mr. Ahuja, hello?
The number you're calling is currently...
Dad, how are you? Have you eaten?
Did these guys do anything?
We didn't plan this properly.
I don't know why I listened to you guys.
That's supposed to be me, Dad!
-Bro, please! -I should be in there!
Keep calm!
OP said he will get the bail done.
Dad, it'll just take a little time. Dad...
You're okay, right?
I'm fine. Don't worry about me.
Did you go meet that doctor?
-Yes. -What did madam say?
She said she'd help us, Dad.
She's a very nice lady. We told her everything.
She was also grieving. Her husband...
Look, Dad. It'll take some time.
You know these kinds of things cannot be rushed.
Omair said there will first be a thorough investigation,
and after that, we will get the compensation we deserve.
I made a mistake.
If we had gone back to the village, we could have managed somehow.
At least we'd all be together.
The two of you here, alone...
Dad, Aarogya Uday has given us a little money.
And Mangu and I already talked.
I'll get sewing work, and Mangu will go back to his previous job.
He has a friend who works there.
-Ram Singh. -Yes, Ram Singh.
You don't worry.
All you need to do is get out and relax.
And no more autorickshaw business, okay?
You've taken your mother's place.
You both are taking care of everything.
Can't you order something else? I'm sick of eating the same thing.
Eat what you get, and don't make a fuss.
-Or even this will be taken away. -Fine, I'm eating it.
-Good morning, Mr. Gaekwad. Hi. -Good morning.
I'm Dr. Saira Sabharwal. I hope I'm not disturbing?
-No, no, please. -Not at all.
May I talk to you for two minutes?
-Everything okay, Doctor? -Yeah, yeah, everything is fine.
In fact, your reports are very positive.
But I wanted to ask you personally how you were doing,
because Saviour is still in the trial period.
So, any kind of side effects, or any discomfort,
-abnormalities-- -Dr. Sabharwal,
the abnormality is the fact that I am perfectly fine.
In fact, I was just complaining to my son yesterday
that a good diet is fine,
but how about some good food for a change?
How long do I need to keep eating these salad greens?
I'm very happy for you and your family.
But, if you need any help, just do let me know.
Dr. Saira!
Hey, Raghav.
Back so soon?
If I stayed at home a minute longer, I would've gone mad.
It's just a lot.
How are you?
I'm good.
-How's work? -As usual.
What's Dr. Swarup doing here?
He's your boss. Again.
Dr. Nath appointed him HOD of the cardiac department.
I heard a massive offer has been negotiated.
-Hello, Dr. Swarup. -I'm so sorry, Saira.
-My heartfelt condolences. -Thank you.
And I look forward to working with you. Again.
There's a lot to be done.
And now there's a new issue with Saviour.
I don't know...
Feels like Manthan's cardiac department
is on the receiving end of some bad energy.
Thankfully our subjects are reacting favourably
because this activist seems to be telling a whole another story.
It seems some victims are also crawling out of the woodwork.
Really?
You haven't seen the news?
Come.
These wealthy owners of companies
are trying to be gods yet again.
Is this to be Bhopal's destiny?
Who gave them the right to play around with innocent lives?
Vayu Pharma has made a drug, Saviour.
Medicines are made to save people's lives.
But this one is killing people.
Their families haven't received a single rupee as compensation.
And yet, big hospitals are carrying out this drug trial with fervour.
On the one hand, DIGC is playing blind.
There has been absolutely no investigation about this.
So, what is the truth behind this drug trial?
When will the people get compensation?
We demand the answers to every one of these questions.
We're too used to keeping quiet.
This time we will not. Thank you.
Nathu Lal has played a good game.
And all thanks to you, Gauri.
My money is funding Chandrakant's campaign.
This was bound to happen!
The money you gave me was my payment.
What I do with that is nobody's concern.
And are you sure Nathu Lal is behind all this?
I mean, it's an NGO.
This is literally their job.
Finding issues and solving them.
Maybe that's what they're doing.
If they're an NGO, why don't they protest outside?
What are they doing occupying a primetime slot on TV?
Ashok, you can handle this!
Even if there is a case, it will drag on.
We have Salman. We'll handle it!
Salman won't do a thing; I've already called him.
There's news from the centre that Salman may be removed from the DIGC.
-We are fucked! -Oh, shut up.
If Nathu Lal is the one behind this OP and the NGO,
he must have paid them off. We can pay too.
Call them to the office and just sort it out.
If we suppress one NGO, another one will come up in its place.
The profession we are in, Gauri, we can't mess with the CM. That's it!
If he wants Shindey, hand him over!
Whatever inquiry you're doing against him, just kill it.
Let them make their heart institute.
You're making your Elisir, right?
Do the extension afterwards!
Only a man with an inheritance can talk like this,
because he does not care about legacy.
Your company was gifted to you, right?
Manthan and Elisir are my legacies.
And I am not going to back down.
Oh, come on.
If you're so interested in playing god, do it elsewhere.
We have to strategize.
Shut up, you guys, seriously! Both of you, just shut up!
We'll pay whoever needs to be paid. What is the big deal?
Listen, listen.
The trial should not stop under any circumstances.
Or it'll become difficult to deal with Ravish, and I can't afford it.
Let's keep out of the news.
How do you deal with her?
By not sleeping in the same bed.
-Bye, I'll see you. -Bye.
Hey.
My God, you look so tired.
Don't stay at home.
I'll book a suite.
Just... switch off.
You didn't tell me Dr. Swarup was back?
As HOD?
I called you, left you messages, but...
you didn't reply.
I'm not upset with you.
I understand.
There are some plans for Dr. Swarup, but the future is you.
There's so much I want to discuss with you, but...
when you're in a better space.
OP and Keshav from Aarogya Uday came to see me.
Along with a family, Mangu and Meena.
Their mother was a subject for Saviour's Phase 1 trial.
She died.
Same cause as Tukaram.
They requested for compensation money from Vayu Pharma.
You do realise this is the game, right?
Buying primetime spots, then buying a whole NGO,
now paying off poor victims.
If Vayu Pharma gives compensation,
then it questions the credibility of the drug.
It means Saviour is a faulty drug.
And, as far as Saviour goes,
why don't you go and meet the patients from Phase 2?
I did. Yes, they are better.
Look at this.
This is authorised paperwork from Aspire and Vayu Pharma.
From the camp.
Look at the drug composition here.
The same composition was in the pen drive,
which Mr. Ahuja deemed incorrect.
Now look at the paperwork that has been submitted to Manthan.
The drug composition is different.
Where did you get this?
Mangu and Meena got it.
They know a nurse who worked at the camp.
You've always had doubts pertaining to this drug.
That's why I put you in charge.
Saviour is being used in Manthan today,
because it had your final approval.
You know Saviour is a top drug; you know it--
I'm sure Saviour is a top drug,
but many lives have been lost from Phase 1 to Phase 2
thanks to this very top drug, including Neil's.
-Is this about Neil? -No, it's about the truth!
No, baby, it's about your guilt!
You're very vulnerable right now.
And these people know that! They're playing you!
They're victims, Gauri.
They want the money they are rightfully owed, and nothing else.
And I refuse to believe that everyone is up for sale.
-Neil admired OP a lot! -Well, Neil was stupid too.
I'm so sorry!
I didn't mean it like that!
I shouldn't have.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby.
I will speak to Sagarika and Ashok.
Give me this OP's number, I'll handle it.
I promise I'll handle it.
I'm really confused.
This is just all too much.
I just want to sleep, Gauri, I'm just so tired.
Baby...
What you are going through,
I can't even imagine.
But you need to be strong.
You need to take care of yourself.
I'll take care of everything else.
You just look after yourself.
I'll take care of it, I promise.
Roma Ma.
Country Club, please.
What is my mistake?
That I loved you?
That I saved you from hell?
And this is what I get in return?
My heart has been broken.
She betrayed me.
She needs to find her way back again.
Once she is punished, she will learn from her mistake.
My dear Deepali.
Forty years.
For 40 years, with hard work and sheer commitment,
I built my reputation.
It took you less than 40 minutes
to grind it into dust during your interrogation.
Are you here to say sorry now?
Apology not accepted.
And I'm sorry for your loss. I'll get going.
Dr. Shindey, I know you're very upset.
I know you don't want to talk to me.
And I know you definitely don't want to talk about Manthan.
But I...
I just need to know something
for my own peace of mind.
Please, you have to help me. Please.
Please.
Honeymoon period over?
You're already looking for peace of mind at Manthan?
Welcome to the world of Dr. Gauri Nath.
Saviour's Phase 1 trial was managed by
the drug research organisation Aspire.
There were many lapses at the camps.
You must've seen the news.
Dr. Shindey, I just wanted to know from you
about this Phase 1 process,
how transparent it was.
And was Gauri involved?
In any of this?
In any way?
Malti is waiting for me.
I cannot be late.
One of Gauri's many talents is that
she can make everyone feel important.
She made me feel that way.
She makes people dream of things they could never imagine themselves.
She is the centre.
And everyone revolves around her.
Aspire...
Everything begins from the centre,
and ends at the centre.
My mouth, my eyes, my hands are all tied thanks to Manthan.
But I'll give you an advice.
Step away from the centre and observe.
You will see things much more clearly.
I'm sure you will choose your side wisely.
Roma Ma has arranged for another place.
In two days, they will move there.
Can't take any more chances.
All of them?
Yes.
Roma Ma and the ten girls.
And the leak? Won't that be risky?
We need the entire batch for the experiment.
Dr. Ross has been very clear about it.
After the experiment is done, we'll see.
And Saira?
What have you thought about her?
She is not going to keep quiet.
I will deal with her; she is my problem.
What about OP?
Ashok sent someone.
And?
But he refused.
How much did Ashok offer?
-Rs. 5 lakh. -Oh!
Just give him...
15-20, whatever he wants.
Just stop this!
Sir, some people from the Income Tax Department are here.
They want to meet you.
Boys!
Mr. Munjal, we are from the Income Tax Department.
We need to search all your properties.
I hope you will co-operate with us.
What nonsense?
What the hell is going on? What is this?
These are the official summons. Please sign.
We need all mobile phones.
Our officers will collect them.
Including your family and staff.
While the raid is on, you can wait in the room of your choice.
Till we are finished here, you won't be allowed to go outside.
Ma'am, please control them. Let us do our jobs.
-In that case, lock them up too. -Yes, sir.
Nobody should come out.
Let's go!
-Is Mr. Pramod home? -Sir isn't home.
I'm going to keep standing here till you don't come out, Mr. Pramod!
I told you he isn't home!
Mr. Pramod, I am waiting!
I need to speak to you! Please come out, Mr. Pramod.
-I just need-- -Go.
Saira...
I'm sorry...
I have already told you I can't be of any help to you.
Everyone's been silenced.
And those that couldn't be are dead, right?
I want justice.
Don't you?
Awasthi, search all wardrobes and lockers.
What you guys are doing... all this to our house,
This is embarrassing for us.
Sir, you need to see this.
There's a secret room.
It's my fucking house!
