"...don't interrupt let us do our work!" "Sit down quietly." "Sit down..." "Yes, ma'am." "How long has Chetan been working here?" "I don't know maybe..." "Two-three months..." "Where is he now?" "I haven't seen him since morning..." "So, Chetan has not been seen in the house since the body was found?" "No..." "When did you see him last?" "Last night." "Night." "What time?" "At about eleven..." "Where are the servant quarters?" "The cupboard's empty he's gone." "Did you find something?" "No, sir." "Did Chetan have any belongings in his room?" "Lots, sir his clothes a mirror, his comb, toothbrush photographs of his God holy books, etc..." "Eveything's gone now..." "Listen, do you have Chetan's documents?" "Chetan Chunilal Tiwari..." "Who referred him to you?" "Sudhakar Mishra..." "Who's he?" "He supplies food to our clinic he'd got Chetan to me he'd said Chetan was his brother-in-law..." "Hmm, brother-in-law..." "Dabbang, pass me that pen..." "Whose pen is this?" "...answer me whose pen is it?" "Ayesha...?" "What?" "My daughter's..." "Do you take me for a fool?" "Students don't use such expensive pens." "Find Chetan, he'll slip away while you waste your time here..." "Shut up!" "Don't scream at a policeman." "All of you will come to the police station, now." "I'm an orthopedic surgeon I was out of town in Pune, for a surgey... I reached home at about ten-thirty this morning and..." "You can go, ma'am." "Please go..." "Yes doctor...tell me..." "Last night... I was at the hotel Meridian in Madh Island till eleven." "I'd had a few drinks..." "I reached home at twelve and I went off to sleep." "When Remi woke me up this morning..." "I..." "Doctor you never mentioned all this earlier the innocent victim, that you are..." "Dabbang!" "Come here..." "Please...find the killer...please..." "Take him for the medical examination..." "Patil..." "A doctor's being doctored!" "Speak up!" "I don't have all day..." "Sir..." "I was on duty, at the main gate..." "Alright..." "Did you see anyone entering the apartment after ten last night?" "Sir that boy from the bungalow across the road..." "What's his name?" "Riyaz Noorani..." "'Riyaz Noorani'...right?" "Yes..." " So, what about him?" "Sir..." "Riyaz had come to the apartment at around eleven..." "And then...?" "An hour later..." "Dr. Sachin Mahajan reached his apartment..." "Tell me the exact time." "Twelve..." "...midnight..." "Hmm, midnight?" "Ok, continue..." "After ten or fifteen minutes of Sachin's arrival, ...Riyaz left the building in a huff..." "Did you hear any noise from inside the apartment?" "Like a fight...or someone screaming?" "No, sir..." "Tell me the truth or..." "Sir when Riyaz left the building his arm was bleeding and there was a bandage around it." "He was in a fit of anger..." "You can leave now." "Go!" "He left home at eleven last night to meet a friend he hasn't returned since then..." "There's nothing to wory about this isn't the first time he stays out for days together with his cellphone off." "Young people...can't stop them..." "What was his relation with Ayesha Mahajan?" "Who's Ayesha?" "Dr. Sachin and Dr. Aarti Mahajan's daughter, from across the street." "Riyaz has many girlfriends." "We can't keep track of all of them..." "Well this girl has been murdered." "And your son Riyaz was in her bedroom at the time of the murder." "Not so funny now, hmm?" "Dabbang..." "let's go." "Scratch marks on his chest and a lump on the back of his head..." "We've sent his blood for the tests..." "Did you get any lead on Chetan?" "The police is not answerable to you." "Where?" "Hey underpants..." "Who's Sudhakar Mishra?" "Yes sir, it's me..." " Sudhakar Mishra?" "Yes..." " So, you're a caterer?" "Yes, sir..." "And, you sir?" "Can't you see who we are?" "What's your relation to Chetan Tiwari?" "...he's my brother-in-law..." "Where is he now?" "What's the matter, sir?" "You'll find out." "Dabbang...he's yours..." "What for...?" "Where are you taking me...?" "What have I done...?" " Come on... I haven't done anything..." "Where's Chetan Tiwari?" "Don't ty my patience I'll hit you where it hurts most..." "You'll never stand erect then." "Tell me now, where's Chetan!" "?" "I haven't heard from him for the last two days." "So, you don't know, huh?" "I'm telling the truth..." "Like I give a f^^^." "Dabbang..." " Yes, sir." "This Chetan Tiwari hails from Bihar..." "This guy spat out his hometown address..." "Send this info to the Bihar Police, now!" "Sir, this Chetan Tiwari has a criminal record..." "These rich people ought to employ domestic help only after police verification." "But do they ever learn?" "What now, sir?" " Now..." "Here...have these roasted peas..." "Mr. Malwade as per the autopsy I'd place the time of the murder at around 12:30 a.m..." "There are scratches on the victim's arms and shoulders..." "There was a struggle before death..." "Rape?" "No." "Read the post-mortem report." "Yeah, mom...we'll reach in a couple of hours..." "Yeah, I'll call you soon..." "Hi..." "Really sory to hear what happened..." "We are helpless against God's wish..." "That's true..." "Are you guys leaving this place?" "The Police has sealed our apartment." "Stay with me till things get sorted..." "Thanks, pal but we'll be staying with Aarti's parents for a while." "I'm really sory about what's happened." "Don't hesitate if you need any help..." "Absolutely..." " Anyway..." "You take care..." "Thanks for the offer." "Call me ifyou need any help..." "Absolutely..." "Let me know if there's anything we can do take care." "Take care Aarti..." "See you...bye." "Come on... I'm sory your holiness, give us a minute, please..." "Dr. Sachin Mahajan..." "You're under arrest..." "What the hell are you talking about!" "?" "You're the prime suspect for your daughter's murder." "There's some misunderstanding..." "You can say that in court, ma'am." "Dabbang, take him." "Just a moment!" "You can't just do this...!" "Come on, quick now, I don't have all day." "Hold on, listen to me..." "There's some misunderstanding..." "Listen inspector...please..." "Come on, get up Doctor..." "Hold on, listen to me..." "Please...just listen...one second, please just listen to me..." "Struggling is not going to help you..." " Come on..." "Please, at least listen to me once...please..." "Your honour..." "Dr. Sachin Mahajan's blood report states that he was under the influence of alcohol that night..." "A pen, that has Dr. Mahajan's fingerprints, was found lying on the floor near the victim's body." "The police discovered from his clinic that Dr. Sachin often carried this sort of pen..." "A blood-stained shirt was discovered in the common garbage dump inside the building premises." "Objection your honour," "The blood-stains on this shirt are not of the victim" " Ayesha Mahajan." "Yes...you're right." "Sir..." "According to the forensic tests these blood-stains belong to a 'young male' who as per the Police is most probably Riyaz Noorani who's been absconding since the night of the murder." "And - as per the DNA tests the scratch marks on Dr. Sachin Mahajan's body were made by the deceased Ayesha Mahajan and vice-versa!" "A hair-strand, proven by DNA tests to be Dr. Sachin Mahajan's hair was found between the victim's fingers." "The post-mortem report states that..." "Ayesha Mahajan, at the time of her death, had been pregnant for a month." "Sir, the case is cystal clear." "That night, a drunk Dr. Sachin reached home at midnight only to see Riyaz Noorani...a Muslim youth inside his daughter's bedroom." "...he flew into a rage and attacked Riyaz." "Though Riyaz escaped Ayesha succumbed to Dr. Mahajan's murderous rage." "He's lying, your honour...!" "Then, to destroy the evidence he tried disposing his blood-stained shirt." "And finally..." "J ...he bribed his servant Chetan Tiwari to leave with his belongings so that Chetan becomes the prime suspect." "The next witness please Inspector Ram Charan Pandey" " Bihar Police." "Sir we've scanned the whole of Bihar but there's no trace of Chetan Tiwari anywhere." "He was affiliated to the mob in Bihar." "He's hiding at the moment." "I don't remember much of what happened that night... I'd had one drink too many and when I drink excessively, I do not remember much the next morning..." "But..." "Ayesha was our only child..." "She was my child..." "My Ayesha..." "There's some mistake here..." "There's some mistake... I didn't kill her..." "She was my child..." "Please believe me..." "Dr. Sachin Mahajan is remanded to judicial custody till the defense council submits the defense statement." "Inspector Malwade," "How did you crack this case so quickly?" "It's our duty, ma'am." "We did it sincerely." "That's all." "Mr. Malwade..." "Mr. Malwade..." "one question please..." "Do you think Chetan Tiwari will be apprehended?" "Of course, he'll be caught!" "What do you suppose we do inside the Police station?" "Eat roasted peas?" "Ayesha was our eveything, Aarti we could have spent more time with her..." "Sachin what exactly happened that night?" "You know - when I drink too much I can't remember much the next morning you know that..." "Aarti, you too?" "...even you don't trust me...?" "I don't believe this!" "Smita ma'am this lady has lost her daughter and her husband has been falsely accused of killing his own daughter..." "The Police have wrapped up the case in haste without analyzing the evidence thoroughly..." "This is an appeal to you ma'am, from our NGO please help this lady get justice." "I'll look into it." "Paraskar..." "Sunil Paraskar from the C.B.l. (Central Bureau of Investigation)" "Walnuts?" "They're good for the brain..." "Alright." "The Police did such a good job on your case that we...the C.B.l. had to be called in." "But for you, it's like moving from hell to high waters." "Not funny?" "Not a problem." "Only one person ever laughs at my jokes..." "Me." "Anyway, I studied your file..." "The post-mortem report says that the incision on Ayesha's neck was a single steady cut a neat and clean slice two inches deep through tissue muscle and flesh..." "Don't do this!" "Enough..." "Leave me alone!" "Please..." "But then, Dr. Mahajan it struck me weren't you heavily drunk that night?" "Were you pissed drunk or not!" "?" "Yes." " A drunk man couldn't have made such a neat and precise cut." "Exactly!" "Therefore tell me what exactly happened that night?" "I don't remember anything... I don't remember..." " We have ways of refreshing memories..." "Like these walnuts." "I didn't kill my daughter." "...she was my daughter..." "why would I kill her...?" "Because Dr. Sachin Mahajan there's more to you than meets the eye." "What?" "What do you mean?" "What are you going to do?" "All the bloody proof is already against me." "I didn't kill my daughter, damn it!" "That estate agent had called you must have been avoiding him, I'm sure..." "Do you know about Ashok Kamble...?" "What about him?" "He's purchased his own apartment...isn't he junior to you?" "Yeah, so what?" "So..." "Where will we stay after you retire?" "This Govt. apartment won't be ours then..." "Have you given this a thought?" "Yes, I think about it eveyday." "That's all you do...think!" "Asha, it's not easy to buy an apartment." "No seller bids below ten million." "...how do you expect me to afford it?" "How the hell did Ashok Kamble afford it?" "Don't know." "But I'll know soon when the dept. raids his house." "Excuse me?" "Someone's at the door for you..." "Yeah, I'm coming..." "Go, catch up with your brother..." "Yes, tell me..." "We are from the icici bank..." "Yeah, so?" "You haven't paid the mortgage on your car for the past three months." "Next month..." "For sure..." "Yeah, Parvez..." "Get Dr. Mahajan's apartment ready for a re-examination." "Please come." "How do you like the house, Parvez?" "It's grand, sir..." "Where's the girl's room?" "Upstairs, sir..." "And the father's room?" " That's upstairs too." "Let's go..." "The pen was found here, right?" "Yes, sir..." "Parvez..." " Sir it's cracked at the bottom." "Could have fallen, or..." "Look at this garment..." "Sir, it's torn..." "Torn by someone's bare hands..." "Check those drawers." "Bring the kit..." "Sir..." "Put off the lights." "There are blood-stains here, someone has washed something here..." "Sir, should I take a swab...?" " The trace is too faint." "You won't be able to take a swab." "Sir...this is Dr. Sachin's bedroom..." "Yeah..." "Sir...that's Riyaz's blood..." "How do you know?" "Sir, the District Attorney mentioned it in court." "But the report merely states - 'Young male'." "Do the Police have Riyaz's blood sample?" "No, sir..." " So, then?" "Do you think, that after attacking Riyaz and murdering his own daughter Dr. Mahajan would go off to sleep in the same blood-stained shirt?" "Not possible, sir..." "But he was heavily drunk, so anything is possible... lt's possible, sir... ls it possible or not possible?" "Don't know, sir..." " Walnuts?" "I got them, sir." " Eat..." "Can you hear me!" "?" "Yes sir, I can hear you..." "Parvez, can you hear me!" "?" "Yes sir, tell me." "I can hear you clearly!" "Yes sir, tell me..." "Tell you what?" "You were saying something from inside?" "Of course not." "You've started imagining things now." "Close the door." "Are you mad at me?" "No sir, why?" "I've been teasing you since morning..." "No sir, not at all." "Should I continue then...?" "Send this for forensic analysis..." " Sir." "The knife's handle has Dr. Sachin Mahajan's fingerprints on it." "And - the victim Ayesha Mahajan's fingerprints too..." "That proves there was a struggle between them." "Does the blade have blood-stains?" "No." "...only the handle has fingerprints, right?" "Yes." "That means someone washed the blade holding the handle?" "Possible." "The cut on Ayesha's neck   could that cut have been made with this surgical knife?" "Yes, it's possible." "Alright." "Fresh after a bath, Chhotelal?" "So...?" "Sir..." "I I fell asleep..." "You fall asleep eveyday at 1 .30 a.m and you continue napping till 5 a.m., don't you?" "Sir I work elsewhere in the day, I get tired, so I fall asleep sir..." "What time do you assume duty?" "Sir, 10 p.m..." "What do you do between 10 p.m. to 1 :30 a.m.?" "Sir, I am on duty, sir..." "And you don't visit the loo?" "When you got to go, you got to go." "Right?" "So, 3 minutes to go, 3 minutes to come back and how long does it take for you...to do it...?" "Sir, 2 minutes or so..." "That's it?" "...and then you smoke, right?" "No way, sir..." " Then what are these..# candles'?" "I smoke sir..." " So you smoke..." "The building's staff toilet was filled with your 'candles' this evening..." "So, that night, some person may have entered or exited the building and you may have not seen him..." "Right?" "Yes, sir..." "You'll be saying this in court." "I'm terribly sory you had to wait I'm Dr. Hansal I was caught up in a delicate surgey it took more time than expected...sory." "No issues." "You're a heart surgeon after all." "You guessed it right." "Matters of the heart are delicate." "I just hope  youneverever require my services..." "My heart is fine but my brain gets a little messed up, sometimes... I completely understand my patients go mad too after they hear my fee... I can see that." "Well I manage to earn my bread and butter..." "What will you have?" " That's Dr. Sachin Mahajan's apartment." "Isn't it?" "That's Ayesha's bedroom window." "If the curtains were open one could see who's coming in there, or going out." "What do you say?" "Brinda..." "You two haven't met..." "That's my wife, Brinda..." "Brinda, this is..." " Paraskar..." "Sunil Paraskar from the C.B.l... I'll see you later... I've seen you before, on T.V.?" "Brinda has been an actress and model but that was before she met me." "Isn't that right, sweetheart?" "Yes." "Why don't you sit down?" "How was your relation with Dr. Sachin...?" "Doctor?" "He's one of my good friends." "In fact, he's close to me." "And to you, Mrs. Brinda?" "I hardly know him." "To me, he is...you could say an acquaintance." "I see..." "These are Dr. Mahajan's call records." "You've called him forty-five times in the last two months." "We're good friends..." "And did you know about their 'friendship', doctor?" "Dr. Hansal...?" "No not really..." "You're a bigger liar than your wife." "Mr. Paraskar... I must ask you to leave now." "May I ask you to shut up now?" "I'm not here on a social visit." "Hansal, I'll see you later." "Sit down." "Ma'am, sit down." "On the 28th of August Mrs. Brinda you called Sachin in the evening and then you called the hotel Meridian." "I was at the Meridian this morning." "Brinda Chhabria." "She last booked a room with us on 28th August." "Had she come with this gentlemen?" "No sir not with him." "In fact, this gentleman had come here inquiring about her, just like you." "Do you have a booking in the name of Brinda Chhabria?" "Yes, Brinda Chhabria..." "Had Brinda come alone?" "No, sir." "Another gentleman had joined her he often comes here with her." "Was it him?" "Yes, sir." "It was him..." "Was there any confrontation between these two men?" "No sir, I don't think they spoke to each other..." "How are you so sure?" "You remember eveything in such detail..." "Sir, I remember because that day this gentleman had a brawl in the lobby, with a young lad." "Our staff had to stop them." "Show me the list of all reservations you booked that day." "That day, we had..." "Mr. Vijay Sharma, Mr. Pradeep Singh Chauhan Mr. Riyaz Noorani..." " Riyaz Noorani..." "Who was he with?" "A girl in her teens." "Was it her?" "Yes, sir...it was her." "Good morning sir...how may I help you?" "I want to book a room..." "Yes, sir." "At the same time this gentleman was waiting for the elevator in the lobby and..." "Dad.." "What's happening?" "Dad...?" "What the hell are you doing with this guy?" "One second, let me explain..." "Riyaz..." "Stop!" "Dad!" "..." "Riyaz, please don't... I am sory dad, leave him..." "Dad!" "Please stop!" "Dad, stop it!" "Please stop!" "How dare you touch me!" "?" "I'll get you, you bastard!" "Who the hell do you think you are...?" "Sir...please sir...relax...don't..." "And then he took the girl away." "And the other gentleman left silently too." "Mr. Paraskar..." "These are our personal matters... lf you could shield us from the public eye we'd reward you appropriately." "According to Dr. Sachin Mahajan's call records..." "Are you hinting at a bribe?" "No." "Me?" "When?" "You just did..." "When did I say that?" "I was tying to say something else, that..." "Oh, so I misunderstood?" "Yes, there's been a misunderstanding..." "Oh, ok..." "So, as per the call records you called Dr. Sachin Mahajan at 11 p.m. that night..." "So...?" "He's a good friend I call him often what's wrong in that?" "Right..." "And quite a friend he's been right, Mrs. Brinda?" "You have no right to insult my wife..." "After dropping Ayesha home..." "Sachin Mahajan left again for hotel Meridian where Brinda was waiting for him." "Get in..." "You're never going to meet that boy again... ls that bloody clear...?" "Hey...it's been two hours... I know, I know..." " ...you didn't even bother to call me... I'm really sory." "And then, at 11 p.m., Riyaz Noorani came to meet Ayesha Mahajan at her apartment." "I don't want to listen to you." "Ayesha..." "He's my dad!" "How could you hit him Riyaz!" "?" "Ayesha, I'm here only for you..." "And it's possible that at that time, you might have seen Riyaz entering Ayesha's room, from here..." "That's it..." "You got the pe_ect opportunity to repay your 'friend'..." "Hello..." "Hello, Sachin!" "...where are you?" "I'm with a patient...what's the matter?" "That Muslim boy..." "Noorani..." "He's inside Ayesha's bedroom at the moment..." "What?" " Yes." "I just saw him with my own eyes." "What shit are you talking about?" "Listen, I'm coming there..." " What happened?" "I need to go." " What happened?" "...I'll be back, Brinda." "That's enough, Mr. Paraskar!" "What are you tying to prove!" "?" "You'll find out, in court, Dr. Hansal..." "Bye." "Parvez..." " Yes, sir..." "Hansal or Brinda?" " You got them both by their tails, sir..." "Which of them has a motive?" "Both." "Hansal could have done it to get even with Sachin." "Or Brinda could have done it because she may be wanting to mary Sachin and he might be refusing for Ayesha's sake." "Either of them could have paid someone to get this done..." "Someone like..." "Chetan Tiwari or even Remi." "I spent more time with Ayesha than her mother." "When was Dr. Aarti ever at home?" "Your quarter is right below Ayesha's room, right?" "Yes." " Yet, you didn't hear anything that night?" "Actually, I'd heard something..." "A vey faint noise... lt was like someone was moving the furniture upstairs." "But then, the noise stopped." "So I went back to sleep." "Alright, Mrs. Remi Fernandes... lnform Dr. Aarti that I'm here to see her..." "Am I through?" " Yes." "Sir one request." "I am not 'Mrs#  just 'Miss'..." "Ok... ..# Miss' Remi Fernandes..." "How old are these reports?" "I'd taken them the last time I came... lt's been four months..." "The C.B.l. is here." "Ask them to wait." "I'll see them in a minute." "I've resumed work to divert my mind, but it keeps coming back to me..." "Apart from your family, who else had the keys to your house?" "One set is with Remi..." "And another set of keys is with Dr. Hansal Chhabria we'd kept a spare set with him in case of emergencies." "What do you think of Hansal and Brinda?" "Hansal and Sachin are good friends..." "And Brinda?" "No comments, eh?" "I don't like her..." "Oh..." "Did you know about Ayesha and Riyaz?" "No." "Sir, Riyaz was overly possessive about Ayesha." "He'd often threatened her... I don't give a shit what your parents think of me, Ayesha!" "The next time you speak of breaking up I'll kill you." "Got it?" "Sir, he dropped out of college, he's a hooligan...a goon." "Did you know about this?" "Sachin had mentioned that Riyaz and his friends weren't good company." "Hey skin-head...next weekend we're going to Lonavala...alright?" "No, let's go to Goa instead..." " No dude..." "Lonavala." "No, Goa..." "Let's ty Alibaug." "No, Lonavala will be more fun..." "Alibaug guys..." ""Who's that!" "?" "She makes my heart go ga-ga!"" "'Ga-ga'...?" "Parvez round them up..." "What have we done?" "Sir?" "Sir..." "Sir you can't do this." "We know the law, you can't touch us we're entitled to call for a lamer..." "Sir!" "Please sir please let me go..." "Have you acted before?" "Sir?" "'Acting'...have you acted before?" "No." "What oozes out when one gets beaten?" "Sir..." "Not from down there, from up here..." "One screams, sir..." "Yes." "So, scream as loud as you can or else you'll get it for real..." "No!" "Sir please!" "No!" "Sir please!" "No!" "No!" "Sir please!" "Sir please!" "No!" "Sir please!" "No!" "Yes, now tell me about the law..." "Sir..." "Riyaz wanted to elope with Ayesha." "He'd planned it out with us..." "But Ayesha refused consistently." "We know nothing else, sir..." "We don't know anything else, sir..." "We don't know where he is now...we haven't heard from him..." "We don't know." "We don't know where he is now..." "He hasn't contacted us since then, sir we are telling the truth, sir..." "I swear..." "Wow, sir!" "That was too cool!" "You screwed them inside out." "Thank you so much sir, for letting me act..." "Aah, been a while since I've done that enjoyed it thoroughly..." "Let's have lunch?" "Yes, sir." " Start." "It's possible that Riyaz killed Ayesha." "Or maybe he got her killed by Chetan Tiwari." "What could be the motive, sir?" "Possessiveness." "What's your lunch?" "Egg sandwich?" "Same old dish." "Ayesha may have insisted on ending their relation that night that could have triggered him off..." "Sir, we'll know the truth once we nab Chetan Tiwari." "Chetan's brother-in-law..." "Sudhakar Mishra." "Keep an eye on him." "Sir he's left his place, like evey night, he's carying a bag as usual." "Sir!" "Kanheri caves?" "Kanheri caves?" "Where did he want to go?" "Borivali National Park..." "Kanheri caves." "Sir, I'm at Kanheri caves..." "Sir, he's ahead of me..." "Tell me..." " Sir, he's right ahead of me... I can see him." "Conceal yourself..." "Don't stop him." "Let him pass." "I want to see who's he feeding?" "Okay, sir." "Yeah, Parvez..." "Yes, sir...did you see someone?" "There were two of them they got away..." "But sir, who were they?" "Open the tiffin box." "Taste it." " Sir..." "Don't wory, we're in a hospital." "What is it?" "It's beef, sir." "Would Chetan 'Tiwari' a Hindu Brahmin eat be_f?" "Not possible, sir." "Are you done?" "One second, sir..." " Get lost!" "Will you operate on me next?" "Show me the knife..." "A butcher's blade..." "No fingerprints, I'm sure." "The handle is covered by cloth." "No, sir." "Clever." "Cloth handle with an uneven su_ace, impossible to extract fingerprints." "But sir, who do you think was inside the caves?" "Riyaz Noorani?" "And who was the other man who attacked you?" "Chetan Tiwari?" "He might have gone to meet Riyaz..." "Sudhakar Mishra will give us all the answers." "Take him in custody, now." "Sir we received a call." "Saying what?" "Sudhakar has not reached home." "Did he fall off a moving train?" "Yes sir, it seems he fell off a moving train..." "Did you find a tiffin box, near his body?" "Tiffin...?" "You're from Mumbai, right?" " Yes, sir." "Don't you know what a tiffin box is?" "Hey, was there a tiffin box next to this body?" "No sir, we didn't find any tiffin box next to the body." "Sunil..." " Hmm..." "This cut..." "What about it?" "Sunil, anything could have happened... lt's nothing...just a scratch..." "Are you done, nurse Asha?" "I'm really sory." "Sory..." "Didn't Hansal Chhabria offer you something?" "Yeah, so?" "Why don't you accept the offer?" "Get aside...!" "Sunil..." "Sunil..." "To tell you the truth you are the most selfish person I've met." "Your ego means more to you than your children." "This whole fracas is an ego trip for you." "You care a damn for your family!" "Hello..." "Riyaz..." "Your mother is worried sick she's asking you to come back home forget all this now just come back." "Listen... I'm speaking to you because your mom told me to..." "Do you know the C.B.l. had rounded us up?" "This is getting serious now...so just come back while you still can hello...hello..." "Take him away..." "Parvez...!" "Tell me!" "What happened in the apartment that night!" "?" "Sir, I'm sure..." "Chetan Tiwari and Riyaz are hand-in-glove." "Sir..." "Riyaz Noorani has been located." "Sudhakar Mishra's house..." "Open it." "Pick this up..." "Silver." "Sir, if you recall Dr. Sachin had silver cutley at his house too." "Come..." "Chetan pocketed these spoons from here." "But then, if Chetan took away meagre belongings like his toothbrush, comb, etc..." "Why would he leave behind a silver spoon in Sudhakar's house?" "Maybe for safekeeping, maybe he just didn't get the time." "The evidence is in this house." "Think Parvez, think hard!" "Sir..." "Parvez..." "Oh!" "Sory..." "This pair, sir?" "Yes..." "Male...size 7..." "They are Chetan's, for sure..." "Obviously, Remi wouldn't wear these..." "When he ran off with eveything why did he leave his shoes behind?" "Come..." "Chetan's room...?" " Yes, that one sir..." "Servant's bathroom?" " That one sir..." "Go upstairs...enter Ayesha's room and come out." "Quick!" "Parvez..." "Sir..." "Remi's quarter is below this, right?" "Yes, sir." "Right below this." "Actually, I'd heard something like someone was moving the furniture upstairs a vey faint noise..." "Move the furniture from this spot..." "Get a screwdriver..." "Chetan's toothbrush, comb and eveything else is right here." "I want you to fight Dr. Sachin Mahajan's case..." "You see... I'm almost retired now." "I take up only select cases." "I can't take this case. I'm sory." "Mr. Ajwani, you've rarely ever lost a case in your career." "This case really needs your expertise." "Please reconsider..." "Mrs. Brinda... I am really sory." "Please..." "Please..." "This is a classic case of a frame-up, your honour." "The scratches found on Dr. Sachin Mahajan's and Ayesha Mahajan's bodies prove that there was a struggle between them." "That does not prove that Dr. Sachin Mahajan murdered Ayesha." "Dr. Sachin Mahajan is Ayesha's father." "That night, he might have beaten her up, to discipline her." "And in that struggle they could have scratched each other with their nails." "And it's possible that some third person may have seen them and taken advantage." "The blood reports have established that Dr. Sachin Mahajan was heavily drunk that night." "This is a carefully planned double murder not an act of drunken impulse." "It's impossible that a heavily drunk Dr. Sachin could've done it." "Dr. Sachin Mahajan is granted anticipatoy bail." "Give me the bag..." " No, I'm fine..." "Aarti, I've been waiting to tell you this since years..." "One second..." " Just listen..." "Please, Aarti." "I was concerned about Ayesha it would affect her mind, her studies custody cases have an adverse effect on kids." "But now, I think there's no point in continuing this mechanical marriage of ours..." "You and Brinda...?" "Yes..." "Since a long time...right?" "It's not what you think..." "She's taking you for a ride..." " No, she's not, that's not true..." "She's tying to..." " Can you just take her away Remi, please?" "No...just listen to me, Sachin..." "We'll talk about this but not here don't create a scene here!" "Listen to me, Sachin..." "She's taking you for a ride..." " we'll talk about it..." "Sachin, just listen to me..." "She's taking you for a ride Goddamnit!" "We've spent so much time here." "I have a surprise for you." "Go in." "Home...?" "For a few days, this hotel suite will be our home." "Excuse me, ma'am... I'm Sachin's friend..." "Mahesh Limaye." "Oh..." "J I'd come here from Mumbai for some work Sachin sent these sweets for you." "Sweets?" "He didn't call me about this..." "Must have slipped his mind..." "Anyway...thank you, ma'am..." "Wait, come in, you can't just leave like this..." "No ma'am, it's pe_ectly fine..." "Have a cup of tea at least..." "No, ma'am, thanks a lot..." " Come, son..." "Ok..." "You haven't even tasted anything..." "No ma'am, thanks... - have something, at least... - l'll have this it looks good..." "So, when are you visiting Mumbai next?" "Not sure..." "Sachin, Aarti, Remi they talk about you all the' time." "What's the matter, ma'am?" "is Mr. Mahajan not too fond of Remi?" "Curious, aren't you?" "Are you really Sachin's friend or someone else?" "Now that you've figured it out, ...tell me about Ayesha's murder." "By the way, my name is Paraskar..." "Sunil Paraskar from the C.B.l." "We don't know anything." "I don't understand you." "Sachin is your son, Ayesha was your grand-daughter." "They are not my family, ...yet, I was attacked." "I could've been killed." "My wife pesters me day and night to accept bribes..." "She's worried that if I die, how'll she support the kids?" "Anyway, thanks for the tea." "These sweets are good." "Please do taste them." "We don't know what happened there." "But, beware of that woman Remi, she's capable of anything." "Parvez..." "Yes, sir..." "Were you on Sudhakar Mishra's tail on the night of 18th Oct.?" "Yes, sir." "Repeat all that you saw at Borivali station." "Why sir?" "Was my pop sipping lemonade there!" "?" "Oh yes..." "Remi..." "Remi Fernandes..." "Call her for an interrogation, now." "Ok, sir." "Where were you on the night of 18th October?" "18th October... I don't know sir..." "Who was sipping lemonade at Borivali station then?" "Borivali station?" "I must have gone to meet my mother..." "Where does your mother stay?" "Vasai..." "So, what were you doing at Borivali station then?" "Came to drink lemonade, eh?" "No..." "There's no direct train to Vasai." "So I change trains at Borivali station." "Remi Fernandes..." "Sir...please..." "Where's Mr. Fernandes?" "There's no Mr. Fernandes I'm not married..." "Any affair?" "Any affair?" "No, sir..." "Why are you joking sir?" "Am I joking?" "Am I joking!" "?" "No...no... I'm sory, sir... I've not done anything... I swear on God and cross my heart." "I've not done anything..." "sir...please..." "Take her for a complete medical check-up, now!" "Please, sir..." "Come..." " Sir, please..." "Come..." " Please..." "Sir, please..." " Come..." "Sir..." "This woman is sexually active." "She has even given birth, at least once." "When did your daughter Remi visit you last?" "Tell me..." "When was the last time Remi came to meet you?" "She does not remember." "She's got Alzheimer's." "She can't remember much." "Remi's husband does not let her come here..." "What is she saying?" "She's saying that Remi's husband does not allow Remi to come here." "Remi's 'husband'?" "Yes." "Ma'am..." "What's Remi's husband's name?" "He's asking you..." "What's Remi's husband's name?" "What's Remi's husband's name?" "She doesn't remember." "If you could ask her one more time, please... I'm sory, it's her time to rest we can't risk stressing her out too much." "Have you ever seen Remi's husband?" "No." "Remi was vey beautiful when she was young..." "She says..." "Remi was vey beautiful in her youth..." "Yes, sir." "Tell me..." "Sachin's phone is not reachable, where is he right now?" "Sir, he's moved with Brinda to the hotel Meridian." "Take your team and reach Meridian quickly, now!" "Sir?" "What's the matter?" "Sachin could be in danger, get there now, fast!" "Ok, sir." "We were at the lobby when the room service person called us from this suite..." "Sir, he's killed himself." "Out of guilt, probably." "Did anyone ask for a duplicate swipe card?" "No sir." "No chance." "We are vey strict about that." "Parvez..." "Sir..." "Assemble all of them inside Dr. Sachin's apartment tomorrow, first thing in the morning." "Alright sir, I'll do it." "The 28th of August, Dr. Sachin Mahajan, drunk to the bone reached his apartment at midnight..." "Dad?" "Dad?" "Dad?" "Ayesha wait, I'll explain..." "Sir, we were tying to sort things out..." "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "No!" "Please!" "Dad!" "Dr. Sachin Mahajan genuinely did not remember whatever happened after that." "Dad..." "Dad... ls there blood?" "There's no blood... lt's a swelling..." "Sory..." "At that time..." "Remi and Chetan were fast asleep inside their respective quarters." "Careful, Riyaz..." "Careful..." " Keep your calm... I just hope dad doesn't remember all this tomorrow..." "Whenever he drinks too much he doesn't remember much the next day..." "Let's hope he doesn't remember this..." "Ayesha, the knife..." "Just pick it up..." "Alright, just leave now..." " l'm leaving, you take care... I think Hansal would be able to tell us what happened next..." "That's right. I did call Sachin to tell him about Riyaz." "I wanted to get back at Sachin." "But I did not kill that cute little girl..." "Why would I...?" "But... I know who killed her..." "Who?" "Your beautiful wife..." "I mean ex-wife, Brinda?" "Brinda doesn't have the guts to do this sort of thing..." "Do you, Brinda?" "Then, who do you think did it?" "This woman!" "Wrong!" "How can a mother kill her own child?" "How can a mother kill her own child?" "Am I right?" "You were in a relation with Sachin, since an early age..." "Sir...?" "A physical relation..." "Sir, please..." "Sir..." "And this relation continued till you both were grown up..." "No, sir." " Right." "Sir, please..." "No, ma'am..." "You could never be Mrs. Sachin Mahajan so you settled with being Mrs. Remi Mahajan, didn't you?" "I won't use the word 'mistress' or 'keep'..." "Sir, please..." "Since I really respect women..." "No, no, don't get me wrong Remi I'm saying, you really loved Sachin..." "Please..." "I beg you..." "You loved him so much that you could have done anything for him..." "That's why he kept you with him, didn't he?" "Please..." "And then, one day, you gave him some 'good' news..." "Sachin had to say it just once and she would have aborted the child without a question." "But, Sachin didn't do that..." "Because, after three years of marriage he knew by now that his wife Aarti cannot give birth." "She's infertile." "I'm sory... I confirmed this through the gynecologists in Ahmedabad..." "Are you the family physician for the Mahajans?" "I have a few questions for you..." "You visited these gynecologists for treatment, didn't you?" "All this is irrelevant!" " Alright." "Coming back to the stoy..." "Sachin then sent Remi away to her mother's house in Goa where Remi gave birth to a beautiful little baby girl Ayesha." "Next, Sachin convinced Aarti that he's adopting a baby girl from an orphanage..." "Aarti agreed..." "This is Ayesha's birth certificate, from the birth registy office... lt's fake." "Then, when Sachin started a clinic here he called Remi back to Mumbai and employed her as a nurse." "I am Remi." " Come in." "You may wonder now," " How did Aarti not know this...?" "I'm sure she must have suspected it..." "But, Sachin Mahajan was a seasoned player he successfully convinced Aarti othemise." "But then, one day after eighteen years Aarti finally saw Remi and Sachin together... lsn't that right, Aarti ma'am?" "Why are you doing this?" "Haven't we suffered enough?" "Why are you humiliating us so?" "Weren't you in Pune, that night?" "What?" "Weren't you in Pune on the night of the murder?" "Yes..." "That's where l'm a bit confused." "The operation that you were called for the amputation was over before you reached the hospital." "Since it was an emergency a junior doctor had executed the operation, in your place." "Operation records from Bhagwati Hospital, Pune the doctor's name, the time of the operation, etc..." " l reached a bit late..." "Right." "And this the taxi service that dropped you here at your doorstep at 11 :45 p.m." "You were here, weren't you?" "You reached here at eleven forty-five..." "How is this relevant?" "What has it got to do with anything?" "You tell us - how's it relevant?" "What are you tying to say?" "What the hell are you tying to say?" "If all this is not relevant then why the hell are you getting worked up!" "?" "What?" "No one knew that Aarti had reached home..." "Dr. Sachin Mahajan, drunk to the bone reached his apartment at midnight..." "And then..." "Careful, Riyaz...please be careful..." "Keep your calm..." "I'm doing it right..." "Careful, please..." "Riyaz, please, go now... I'm going..." " Leave now, please..." "Just leave now, please..." " l'm leaving, you take care..." "This was the best opportunity Aarti'd ever get to get even with Sachin and his family." "Why are we even listening to this man's gibberish?" "And then, Aarti..." "Bullshit!" "You accused Sachin earlier," "And now me!" "You know what?" "Just get out of my house..." "Just get out!" "Just get out of here..." "Just get out of here..." " Ma'am, please calm down..." "What the hell are you doing?" " What's he tying to do?" "Ma'am, it's a C.B.l. inquiy..." " What are you doing?" "Ma'am, it's a C.B.l. inquiy..." "Please, stay calm." "Ma'am, please..." "Please, sit down..." "Cary on your discourse, Mr. Paraskar..." "Actually, it slipped my mind how would you explain Chetan's death?" "Inspector Malwade?" "You've begun taking this madman seriously?" "When Aarti emerged from Ayesha's room after killing her Chetan may have stepped out of his room too maybe to use the loo." "That's when he might have seen her." "Anything...just anything!" "Anything..." "Then, you struck a deal with Chetan." "Did you not strike a deal!" "?" "Careful." "Mr. Paraskar, with all due respect to your experience in the C.B.l your theoy here is completely wrong." "This could not have been the work of a delicate lady." "It's impossible." "Dr. Aarti Mahajan is an orthopedic surgeon." "She amputates human limbs - arms, legs clean, precise with her skilled, trained and strong hands." "So?" "Like this..." "Hey!" "Do not ty that again." "And with these strong, trained hands she concealed Chetan's body below the floorboards." "And then, at 1 :30 a.m., when the security guard had fallen asleep, she silently made her exit." "Aarti knew that Chetan's body would be discovered soon and that's exactly what she wanted." "So that the noose gets tighter around Sachin's neck." "In the morning Remi saw Ayesha's body..." "Sir...!" "Remi woke Sachin up," "They wept bitterly for their child, and then in a hasty attempt to protect Sachin Remi tried to dispose his blood-stained shirt off..." "Finally... lt was time for Aarti's final vendetta." "The lock of that hotel suite was neither forced nor damaged nor tampered with." "The only logical explanation, for the killer to have got in, is that Sachin invited the killer in, himself." "You'd visited Sachin at the hotel with the divorce papers, right?" "Then who killed my son Riyaz!" "?" "And, sir who killed poor old Sudhakar Mishra?" "He did." "Aarti had bought off Malwade, right at the beginning." "Riyaz contacted you, as soon as he heard of Ayesha's death." "Ayesha's dad has killed her I want to kill him, with my own hands." "But, by then Mr. Malwade had been bought over..." "There's this young guy, Riyaz." "He says" " Sachin has killed Ayesha." "He wants to kill Sachin with his own hands." "What do we do with him?" "Control him for now." "Tell him that this is not the right time." "If the law does not convict Sachin then we'll use this boy." "If the law failed to punish Sachin Aarti would've used Riyaz to punish him." "You were present at the scene of crime at the time of the murder." "And there's a deep gash on your arm." "The defense lamer could put the blame of the murder on you." "It's best that you go underground for some time now." "If Sachin is convicted, then you can come forth and give a statement." "If he gets out on bail, you can kill him." "Malwade then pressurized Sudhakar Mishra into delivering food to Riyaz." "Do you wish to come clean from this case?" "Yes sir, please." " Then do as I say." "One day, Malwade visited Kanheri caves to check on Riyaz." "But instead, he saw that Parvez and I had tracked down this hideout by trailing Sudhakar Mishra." "So, he attacked me..." "Since we'd seen Sudhakar Mishra coming there you killed him off too." "You picked up the tiffin box from the tracks since it had Riyaz's fingerprints." "I still managed to deduce that it was Riyaz holed up at the caves." "It's beef, sir." "Had Riyaz opened his mouth to the C.B.l..." "Tell me!" "What happened in the apartment that night!" "?" "...your 9ame was Up, SO you..." "Mr. Malwade, thanks for..." "You bastard!" "You killed my only son!" "I won't spare you!" "I'll buy you with your uniform... I'll finish you and your family!" "Let go of me!" "Let me at him!" "Get lost..." "You have no evidence, Mr. Paraskar." "You have no evidence." "You are my evidence." "Take him away!" "Hey, take him away!" "Yes sir." "Come on, get him." "You can't touch an officer in uniform!" "Come on, move!" "I'll fix you guys... I found an old photograph of Remi at her mother's place." "In an 18-year old Remi's face, I saw an 18-year old Ayesha." "And that's when all the little pieces of this mystey fell in place."
