Post by bunniefuu »

LALBAUGCHA RAJA

Hello, brother. What's the score?

The same.

Seven thefts, eleven r*pes,
six-and-a-half murders.

That's twenty-four and a half.

You're gonna count Sen Dada's story
as a half just because it's old news now?

Very nice.

- Shall we?
- Yeah.

You know, I've been working my a*s off
in this field for the past eight years.

But Mom just didn't respect me.

But last year I took her to see
the Lalbaugcha Raja.

Got her the VIP treatment,
no security checks, no queues.

She was awestruck.

Her eyes popped out just like IMAX 3D.

For the first time,
I sensed a hint of respect.

Anyway, listen, I know that
it's not a big deal for our generation,

but have you ever been there?

Lalbaug? Forget Lalbaug.

I haven't seen Hanging Garden yet.
Imagine!

Perfect! We could go this time?

Where? Lalbaug or Hanging Garden?

Wait a minute.

How many female reporters
do you think have a link to Rajan?

- Anyway, I'll see you.
- Yeah, sure.

- Bye.
- Bye.

The number you have dialed
is currently busy.

The number you have dialed
is currently busy.

f*ck me.

Salut, mademoiselle!

Haven't gotten over the Paris trip yet?

You should ask Anjali
to plan another trip.

- I'll convince Aditya.
- Sure.

- You should look for a destination.
- Give me a story,

I'll personally plan your itinerary.

Who's the female journalist?

Leena, it's really premature.

It's not even a story.

I wouldn't be hounding you
if it was just published in The Suburbs.

Daily Express has reported the same!

And I've personally edited the copies
of the reporter who has the byline.

He's solid.

Either there is a name,

or you're trying to create
a distraction so that...

you know, no one questions

your seriously delayed charge sheet
in Sen's case.

You know, Leena,
if it's supposed to be a distraction,

then it clearly has not worked.

Anyway, evidentiary support is weak.

The story has been leaked prematurely.

And it's just plain gossip right now.

And you know gossip travels
faster than facts.

So, someone has leaked it, but why?

Happy Ganesh Chaturthi, Leena.

Take care.

- Hi!
- Shekhar, did you find anything?

Still waiting for Jagtap.

Rizwan Chhibber just walked out of
ACP Devrat's office.

Give the phone to Chhibber.

- What?
- Do as I say.

- Yeah. Mr. Chhibber! Leena.
- What?

Leena Pradhan.

Ms. Leena!

How are you?

You tell me!
What did your friend tell you?

Who's the female reporter?

No clue.

Devrat didn't say a word.

Rizwan, we both know
Devrat can never keep his mouth shut.

If Devrat would've kept his mouth shut,

half the Mumbai crime reporters
would be out of their jobs.

Okay, so, don't ask me for names.

But it's someone who Shroff is protecting.

Someone who Shroff's
personally interested in.

You know her, Leena.

Find anything?

Not yet. Keep digging.

You must have your Page One sorted
for tomorrow, right?

Sorry?

Deepa... Chandra? Eastern Age, right?

Yes.

I'm sure Jagruti knows
who that female reporter is.

Then why are you here?

Following up on
the b*mb blast story, I assume?

I'm here to meet Devrat.

You know, that will take a while.

He doesn't usually meet trainee reporters.

- Grab a snack at the mess?
- Ms. Deepa!

Sir wants to see you.

Why don't you grab that snack?

Sir, about the female reporter...

You go first.

Do you have any names? Where she works?

You must have some information
if you wish to get it confirmed.

This is how it works, Deepa.

Thank you, sir.

You see, every story has two sides.

The police version, and the criminal's.

Find out the criminal version.

Do you have any sources?

Of course, sir.

Alright, let's find out...

if you're just curious
or if you're committed as well.

Manoj Shivdasani.

Get this man to talk,

or get me something to confirm.

It's a Page One story.
The byline could be yours.

Daily Express added the page five story
at the last moment.

The story actually came from the editor

and he has a very good network
with the Crime Branch

but no one really knows
who this female reporter is.

This is old stuff.

The cops have already started
investigating some reporters.

It's a woman.

There aren't many
female reporters around anyway.

I know the crime reporters.

Nine, including Jagruti Pathak.

But male or female,
why would Rajan need a reporter's help?

To find out about
Sen's bike number and address?

It's absurd.

Maybe she volunteered this information
to Rajan to get into his good books.

This theory will become a story
only if the Crime Branch speaks up.

Otherwise, it's all just gossip.

Additional CP Devrat has confirmed

that they are investigating
a female reporter.

And that there's circumstantial evidence.

- I had met him.
- Good job, Deepa.

Get back to me with data or details.

- Something on the record.
- Of course, sir.

And be careful.
This could be a fishing exercise as well.

Just put something out,
see what comes back.

That's true, actually.

One, they made arrests months ago.

Secondly, the Crime Branch
has no confessions

and they've now asked for two extensions
to file the charge sheet.

They desperately need a link to Rajan

and demand for a CBI Inquiry
is gaining momentum at the moment.

Anyway.

It looks like it's the Crime Branch
who needs a win desperately.

This female reporter angle...

Coincidence?

Deepa!

Deepa.

Always talk to beat cops, constables.

They love to talk.

You get your first tips from them.

When these tips become stories,

that's when people like Shroff
and Devrat become useful.

You've built an equation with Devrat.
Great!

But he's just taking you
for a ride right now.

You know what I mean?

Do one thing, talk to Karade.

If you find out
who this female reporter is,

then you know what it means.

Yes, Ms. Pathak.
What can I confirm for you today?

Sir, you may take a look yourself.

Come on! What do you want me to look at?

Sir, the Information Bureau claims that

you had this report
one week before the blasts.

You didn't follow it.

You could've stopped the blasts,
if you had.

How do you respond to that?

We've talked about this before, right?

My apologies, sir.

Our questions will stop if the blasts do.

Everyone's chasing this story today.
Aren't you?

Sir, this story doesn't have
anything substantial.

This one does.

So, this story isn't big as of now, right?

That's exactly what I did.

I chose to chase the bigger tip.

The bigger lead.

We get a hundred a day, you know that?

So, you're confirming that
you sat on this IB report?

You think that the blast story is bigger
than the female reporter story, right?

But you never know.

That a female reporter might explode
with a bigger bang.

- But, sir...
- That's it. We're done, Ms. Pathak.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

Yes, Mr. Acharya.

Sure.

Congratulations.

It's not a notice, but it's a soft threat.

Malik?

That was quick.

Yeah, you had the IB report.

Gossip might travel fast,
but facts always win the race.

They're threatening to sue us
if we run with this story.

Are you serious?

That means we're on the right track.

The story's solid.

Classic, Malik. Straight for the jugular.

So, are we still running it?

What do you think?

What have you learned from me
over the years?

Every bloody thing I know, My Lord!

Another Page One. Congratulations.

How many Page One bylines
had you scored at Citi Mirror?

I've broken that record
at Eastern Age a long time ago.

Listen, don't tell Leena, alright?

She might fire a couple of interns again.

By the way, I have that interview
at News Day tomorrow. I told you.

So, ATS is gonna sue us for your report

- and you're gonna write for the antípalos?
- What?

What is "antípalos"?

I think rival, competitor.

All the best.

Get a fat check, alright?

I'm sorry for troubling you again.

It's okay, ma'am.

Murad Bhai's word is our command.

You can take a look. I'll wait out here.

Hi, Neel! Surprise!

Look!

Our new home!

This is your room! How is it?

Here we'll have your big TV, okay?
For your video games.

And here we'll have your bed

with your galaxy wallpaper, and spaceship,

and your superhero g*ng!

How is the surprise?

I love you!

- Ice?
- Yes, please.

Where's Anita?

She's on a work call.

Super busy?

Tell me something.

Since she is in the big league now,

when are you gonna stop moonlighting
as a politician and start acting like one?

I'm already one at the office,

but do you want me to be
a sidebar at home as well?

Not sure about the home,
but why at the office?

Well, she has Mr. Imran under her spell.

Ms. Jagruti Pathak.

Not for long.

I heard she's interviewing for Sen's job.

That was fast.

She always wanted Sen's position.

You had told me, right?

She used to fight with Shanbaug a lot.

Yeah, but I still feel
she's the right fit.

I mean, no one has
the kind of sources she does.

That way she's strong.

Yes, but we all know how she does it.

You think I don't
why Imran's under her spell?

Well, Imran might be, but Shroff sure is!

True!

- Wine?
- Please.

Anita, congratulations!

Thanks, Venu.

So, you guys discussing Jagruti again?

I mean...

She must be an extraordinary woman.

She's just
an interesting character, actually.

It's just some professional rivalry.

True.

- Cheers, guys.
- Cheers.

- Cheers!
- Cheers.

So, apparently, I got this promotion
because I'm sleeping with my boss.

I mean, we're friendly.

It was Pooja.

That's what everyone at work is saying.
That's the "goss".

Yeah, but, babe,
you know it's all bullshit, right?

Must be that Ketan guy
behind all these rumors.

He was also up for it, no?

Yeah.

There's nothing we can do
about those jealous guys.

But if he got a promotion,

I bet no one would say he got it
because he was sleeping around.

Yes, ma'am.

Did you hear anything?

About the female reporter
the Crime Branch's investigating?

No, but seems like you've heard.

Imran...

it's Jagruti.

I have it from a very solid source.

Leena, it's bullshit.

You know her.

I do.

But her equation with Shroff,
and "I don't give a f*ck" attitude,

her overreach, her ambition...

everything.

I mean, seems to have ruffled
quite a few feathers.

Like it or not, she's a strong woman.

She might be innocent...

but a strong woman
is always considered a threat.

Yeah, I'm sure you'd know.

Leena...

why are you telling me?

I know you both are close.

Take care of her.

Multiple reports alleging

that ATS Chief Malik
ignored an IB intelligence report,

which caused the blast
which k*lled 40 people.

Today in New Delhi at Ramlila Maidan...

A man named Suresh Kalia was arrested
last night at a small village in UP

in the Jaideb Sen m*rder case.

He used to be
one of Rajan's trusted shooters.

He was a suspect
in the 2003 m*rder of

a Mumbai-based businessman
Arvind Trivedi.

He's also been accused of
some other petty offenses.

SURESH KALIA ARRESTED FOR SEN'S m*rder

KALIA IS A KNOWN MEMBER OF THE RAJAN g*ng

- Yeah, Patil?
- Yes?

- It's Narvekar.
- Namaste.

Namaste. So, tell me...

why has Irani been arrested?

He's been charged under MCOCA
for Sen's m*rder.

Yeah, MCOCA's alright, but...

what's the exact charge, sir?

Accessory to the sh**ter.

He identified Sen for the sh**ter.

I think.

Why?

No, it's just...

Thank you.

Hi, Jagruti.

- Sir...
- Sit, sit...

So...

you really want to come back?

You didn't exactly leave on cordial terms.

Well, you want me to come back.

It means the terms were not that bad.

And Imran?

His star reporter...

Sorry.

His protege!

Is he willing to release you
from Eastern Age?

Yeah, well...

He's a great mentor.

- Or a smart boss.
- Sorry, sir?

Look...

When I had called you,
I didn't think Imran would let you go.

But a lot has changed
since the time I had called you.

So...

Sorry.

Am I missing anything?

We'll circle back
when we have made a decision.

Thanks for coming in, Jagruti.

Ma'am, there's nothing worth confirming.

You'll get an official statement
once we have something.

Sir, everyone's gonna get
the official statement.

But there must have been some development?

Look, Jagruti has specifically
asked me to meet you for an exclusive...

I'm meeting you only because
Jagruti has asked you.

Anyway, have you had some breakfast?

- Good morning. No, no! Sit!
- Good morning...

Oh, wow! That looks nice.

Wonderful!

Your wife is a master chef, Karade!

You should start a hotel.
What are you doing here?

Sir, Deepa Chandra. Eastern Age.

Any development in
the Sen m*rder investigation?

We've made ten arrests, ma'am.

What more do you want?

About the female reporter, sir?
Did you find anything?

What was her motive?

Is she still in Bombay?

Is she still an active reporter?

Was she Sen's colleague?

- When was the last time...
- Oh, my God!

Karade, let Ms. Deepa
handle the interrogation.

Unleash her barrage of questions 24/7.

It'll beak even the staunchest criminal.

Jagruti was right, sir.

You have a badass sense of humor.

What?

It's brilliant.
Just like your track record.

Well, regarding the female reporter,

- the evidence we have is circumstantial.
- Okay.

And she wasn't in Mumbai
on the day of the m*rder.

And...

her report of Jaideb Sen's m*rder...

it was extremely unique.

- Unique?
- How do I put it?

Misleading.

Anything else, sir?

- She had a tiff with Sen about a source.
- Who's the source, sir?

Hold on. Give me the pen and the paper.

I'll write your article for you as well.

Come on, ma'am!

You'll just ask questions,

and I'll answer them all?
That's not how this works, right?

- Sorry, sir.
- You must do some field work as well.

Investigate the lead. Find the source.
And you'll have the answers.

Okay, sir. Thank you.

Oh, here. Please have some vada.

- You'll need it.
- Thank you, sir.

Wow.

You ran with the story
despite Malik's warning?

You did not think
you needed to check with me or legal?

It wasn't a notice.

I would've checked, if it was.

CMO, Malik, their lawyers,
they've all been calling me all morning.

This runs on ads, not news.

And the government
is our biggest advertiser.

You have to run
politically sensitive stories past me.

- Just you or even the CMO?
- Are we clear?

Crystal clear.

Look, I don't wanna take names,
but I suggest you reign her in.

It's nothing.

If this "nothing"
turns out to be something,

it's going to be very damaging,
especially for her and us.

Pathak?

She's too busy
to write a leave application.

Am I right?

- Wanna know the truth?
- Sure.

She sent it two weeks after her leave.

Thank you.

Deepa!

Get anything at the Crime Branch?

A vada. That's all.

"Pockets full of moolah, and yet,
munching on vada".

That's what he must've said.

Jagruti! My office. Now.

Imran, this is absolutely unbelievable!

Now I know why Jagtap, Karade,

almost all my sources,
aren't answering my calls.

My meetings with Shanbaug and Malik
were quite awkward as well.

All because of this?

J, they'll probably question you.

But you have nothing to hide,
so you really have nothing to worry about.

Imran, the Crime Branch
is investigating me?

What for? What have I done?

I mean, the last time I met Sen,
he almost threatened me!

What?

Dada? Why?

I had asked him about Irani.

You know how secretive Sen was
about his sources.

- I just ruffled him up.
- What... When did this happen?

Outside Malik's office.

But I didn't think he was mad at me.

He was just frustrated
with something else.

No, this doesn't make any sense because...

Malik and Sen's relation...

Anyway.

See, J, you'll have to be prepared.

It's not just the cops.

Everyone in the top circle
also knows it's you.

Brij, Leena...

They think I've done it?

You're expecting loyalty from the people
I don't even expect honesty from?

And when did you start caring about
what others think?

I think I'll have to talk to Shroff.

We'll have to talk to Shroff,
but I'll do it.

It's been said that he's protecting you.

Thanks for coming with me, man.

Devrat didn't give me much. Just this.

I don't know who he is.

I mean, we've come till here,
we'll verify that also.

You must do this quite often, right?

Like, going with J to meet her sources.

Well, not very often with J.

You can't keep up with her.

She's a bulldozer with no brakes.

She just barges into people's homes.

Even cops can't do what she does.

And you take Jagruti anywhere,

she'll either find a Gujarati person,

or learn the language they're speaking.

I wish I could see her operate.

You still have lots of time, man.

Yeah, but, you know, like, on field.
Like you.

What do you think is her process?

Process?

I mean, before asking
the right question to her source,

she'll sit and talk to them
and build an equation, a relationship.

She'll not treat her source like a source.

She'll treat them like a human being.

That's what I think, at least.

No wonder she has such a solid network.

- People must be so jealous, no?
- Yeah. J's...

Kedar, tell me something.
Do journos poach each other's sources?

Yeah, it happens all the time.

In our profession,
there's nothing new in this.

Even J?

Of course, it has happened with J as well.

But J won't spare them.

The source as well as the poacher.

So, she'll fight?

Fights?

J fights full-on!

It doesn't matter if the other person
is a senior or a veteran journalist!

She won't spare them!

Well, you know Sen Dada, right?

She had a tiff with him as well.

- For whom?
- Deepa, it's her source. Come on.

Alright, I'll tell you.

He died last year, so it's not a problem.

- Farhaan Tauquir.
- Farhaan...

Rajan's sh**ter?

Sen Dada was gonna meet him
but Jagruti found out.

She clearly told him, "Tauquir is my guy.
Please stay away from him."

Come, this is it. Come!

Hello?

Oh, you aren't here?

When will you be back?

Alright. He's not here, man.

Come on, let's go.

But we've come till here,
let's go inside...

There's no point. He'll call me.
Why do you wanna waste more time?

- Come on. Let's go.
- Deepa, we've come till here. Let's...

Your fraternity always talks about unity

but when push comes to shove...

they all disappear.

I mean, tell me, besides you,
who's even bothered about her?

They're all attacking her story
like vultures.

But let me be clear.

There's enough to question her.

I just don't wanna do it personally.

Look, this isn't a big deal for us.

But for women, it's different.
You know that very well.

If Jagruti's character is put to question,
people will be out with their verdicts.

And the problem now is that...

people have started taking my name.

They are saying that I'm protecting her.

See, we both know that she's innocent.

And that's the reason we're sitting here.

Right?

Mr. Shroff, no one can reign her in.

She says it like it is. But...

Trust me, Imran.

I'm doing everything that I can.

Right now, everything is circumstantial.

You know, unless something big comes up...

Nothing big can come up.

Will you make sure nothing big is created?

Will you make sure that your fraternity
does not create anything big either?

Five-star and all, huh?

Are you planning on proposing?

You're scaring me now.

Well, the room's booked
in your name as well.

Would be weird, right?

A cop from Ahmedabad booking
a five-star hotel suite in Ahmedabad?

For a night?

- What is weird?
- Strange.

Go on, sweetie.

Wow!

Ajitesh!

You're making me feel guilty now.

I couldn't even meet you
when you had come to Mumbai.

And today...

Sorry.

Well, if I'm being honest...

I felt really bad.

I said I was sorry!

You're not getting away with a sorry.

Really?

- No?
- Nope.

- Nope?
- No.

I must thank Darshan.

At least these divorce proceedings
bring you to Ahmedabad every month.

I don't know how long
this divorce will take.

This divorce is a joke for Darshan.

Now he says he wants Neel's full custody.

Can you imagine?

He hasn't even seen Neel in a year,
and suddenly...

I curse him and his family!

Hey.

Technically, you're still his wife, right?

Sorry.

Now, can you please forget about him?

Okay.

Listen...

I'm coming to Mumbai in December
to meet Neel.

He'll be home for the holidays, right?

- Are you sure?
- Yes, of course.

I need his permission, right?

- Wow, what a surprise!
- Just enjoy the night!

Hello?

Chhibber? Rizwan Chhibber?

Yes, it's Rizwan Chhibber.

You work with Ab Tak 24/7, right?

Yes, with Ab Tak 24/7.

Who am I speaking to?

Rajan.

Can I say something on record?

I'm telling you this personally.

Should I?

Sen was in cahoots with Dawood.

And Jagruti Pathak turned him against Sen.

Where is Ankur?

There's a new movie. Pyaar Ka Punchnama.

So, he's interviewing the director.

How are you, Mr. Jagtap?

You've just forgotten me.

Yeah, I was in Ahmedabad.

Yeah, I'm at the office. Why?

Sure, sure. No problem.

I'll be there.

Okay, okay, sir.

I have to go to the Crime Branch.
I'll see you later.

Okay, guys. Back to work.

Sir.

Hello, Karade! All good?

Jai Maharashtra!

Ma'am,

why don't you write about these things?

Tell people about this.

No electricity.
The fan's not working.

These are our working conditions.

Please. Have a seat.

- Sir.
- Karade.

How did you score an interview with Nana?

Through a source.

Source?

Who's the source?

Come on, sir.

Want me to give up my source?

You're not here to confirm a tip.

It's a m*rder investigation, ma'am.

What's the charge, sir?

I met one of Rajan's top men.

I had to work hard,
but the interview was worth it.

- Worth what?
- Worth seven-and-half years of slogging.

After slogging in this field for 7.5 years

I'm sure I can at least score
an interview with Nana.

So, your relationship with Rajan...

Friendship.

How? And for how long?

One minute, sir.

I have no relationship,
no friendship with Rajan.

And I've never met him
face-to-face either.

I have just spoken to him once
for an interview on the office landline.

No, but before or after...

you must've spoken
on your personal number as well, right?

Sir, please note it.

I've just spoken on the office landline.

He called three times.

- The call dropped twice.
- Okay.

And we interviewed him the third time.

The phone was on speaker
for the duration of the interview.

The whole staff witnessed it.
You can check.

Alright.

I'll believe it if you say so.

So...

what did Nana want
in exchange for an interview?

He wanted to change the perception.

Power.

He wanted to show that
he's still powerful.

And that's what I wrote, indirectly.

I know it's wrong,
but that's how you score more interviews.

So, Farhaan Tauquir...

You tied a Rakhi on his wrist?

You accepted him as a brother?

Is this how you treat all your sources?

As family?

No, sir.

He was just a source.

I met with him for a tip.

It was on the day of the Rakhi festival.

His sister was tying a Rakhi on his wrist,

he asked me to do it as well.

So, I just did it.

Didn't think much.

He just wanted me to be his sister.

I'm sure he gave his sister
a Rakhi gift as well?

No, sir.

He was a source, gave me a tip.

It was a big tip.

Ma'am...

A criminal, who's committed 25 murders,

who was Rajan's top sh**ter...

you accepted him as your brother,
just for a story?

- Not my best moment, sir.
- No, no, no.

What I mean is,
you'll need more tips in the future.

Let's say the biggest exclusive ever...

What would you do to get that?

Sir, honestly,
I've never thought about it.

But before I take any step,
I always think about my ten-year-old son.

So I'm sure I wouldn't do anything wrong.

Who's this traitorous female reporter

who got the legendary crime journalist
Jaideb Sen k*lled?

What was her relationship with Jaideb Sen?

Is this female journalist
Rajan's girlfriend?

We'll talk to you,
the common citizen of India,

and hear what you have to say
on this matter.

Because Ab Tak TV won't stop questioning
until we get all the answers!

HAPPY DIWALI

Careful! Be careful!

Move! Stay back.

If Neel would've been here,

he would've filled up the house
with all his firecrackers!

His school will get him some firecrackers.

His school will give him firecrackers
on Christmas, not on Diwali.

These Convent schools, I tell you.
That's not fair.

Tell your Papa I got the sweets he'd sent.

What's wrong, sweetheart? Everything okay?

Missing Neel?

It's Neel!

How come?

You think you're the only one
who can pull some strings?

Your uncle has learned
a thing or two from you.

Go on. Talk to him.

Hello?

- Neel?
- Happy Diwali, Mom!

Happy Diwali, Neel!

Who gave you a phone?

Uncle told Father Francis
that it was Nana's birthday.

It's a surprise! How was it?

Uncle and Nana are not bursting crackers?

No, sweetie.
We'll wait for you to come, okay?

The whole neighborhood will be bursting
crackers with us on Christmas, okay?

We'll have a Christmas tree,
ice cream, everything!

And chaklis and cookies together!

Yes! And lots of decoration!
Sweets! Cakes!

Everything, okay?

- Sure!
- I miss you!

I love you!

Bye, Mom!

These were the visuals from
the protest site from earlier today.

Many protestors gathered
to put pressure on the police

and the government to take action...

- Yeah, Pushkar?
- Word is that UP Police has botched up

the m*rder investigation of
journalist Vijay Kumar Munda.

He was k*lled a month before Sen.

Apparently, the accused was out on bail,
but he fled.

This would've been a routine story,

but the CBI is gonna take over
the case now.

That means there will be demands
to transfer Sen's case to CBI as well.

So, the opposition is gonna link
the UP fiasco to Sen's m*rder?

Given that, Mumbai Police
and Mr. Kamat are looking at hell.

Unless they pull a rabbit
out of their hat.

See, it's very simple.

Our home minister,
our commissioner of police,

have failed Sen's m*rder investigation.

All we're asking for, we're demanding,
is answers, we're demanding CBI,

and we're asking for resignations
of all those who have failed us.

Guys, if this breaks the alliance,
it's not just a UP story.

Let's get this right.

Deepa is still at the police headquarters.

MPA, IJF, all the protestors
are right there.

No official word yet.

And ACP Devrat and IO Jagtap
have also refused to comment.

Pushkar, I think we're looking at
definite resignations.

Unless, the Crime Branch is ready
with that charge sheet.

Mr. Acharya! Mr. Acharya!

Is your presence here right now
just a coincidence?

Or is this a planned political event?

Because the sources tell us that
you're next in line after Mr. Kamat.

You guys just assign the blame,
without knowing the full picture.

My meeting today was planned a month ago.

You can check the records if you wish.

Will Mumbai Police be able to get rid of
all the charges against them?

There's been no statement
from Commissioner Puranik,

and from JCP Harshvardhan Shroff either.

But the biggest question is,
"Where's the charge sheet?"

Why are they blowing the smoke up our a*s
for a fire in UP?

UP's f*cked up case is affecting us here?

Who gives bail to the prime accused?
These bloody idiots!

Shroff!

We have what we need.

And this is the right time.

We have Manoj Shivdasani's
conversation with Rajan.

And Rizwan Chhibber on record.

- These two things are enough.
- You're right.

Let's wrap this.

I'll talk to the CM myself.

- Jagtap!
- Sir?

Well done.

Thank you, sir.

Shroff...

I've been getting phone calls as well.

The same guy who calls you.

The first call,
when Sen was pronounced dead.

I was told to handle it.

In case JCP Crime can't.

But, well done.

So, this is your doing?

Okay.

Devrat, sir!

- Imran!
- Dalvi, how did it happen?

Something's changed.

Puranik says he's not going anywhere.

Everything is under control.

Yeah, even Dalvi says
CMO is saying no resignations.

Kamat's not going anywhere.

Yeah, Mr. Dalvi, I get what you're saying.

Jagruti!

Yeah.

Mr. Dalvi, please hold on.

- What is happening?
- What happened?

AB TV has just heard
that JCP Crime Harshvardhan Shroff

- Dalvi, I'll call you later.
- has assured the CMO...

that Sen's m*rder investigation
is complete.

They have the final piece of the puzzle.

Motive, links to Rajan,
they have everything.

Sources say that the Crime Branch
was chasing a big lead,

which has come through,
tying up the investigation neatly.

Was this lead the reason
for the delayed charge sheet?

And what exactly is this big lead?

Stay tuned to AB TV. This is Sushant.

- Sir, can I speak with you?
- Yeah.

In private?

I just met Devrat.
He has confirmed for me.

I have all the facts, sir.

You want to publish a story on this?

- Yes, sir. Because...
- How is this a story?

- Sir, all the facts...
- This is just sensation. Please!

- Sir, everyone's trying to look for...
- You've been to journalism college?

- Sir, everybody wants it. We have it!
- This is not news.

Deepa, have some decency! Thank you. Just...

- Give me a chance...
- Please!

Hello?

I have something big,
but it is off the record.

Will off the record work for Leena?

Okay, Deepa. Give me a minute.

What does she want?

She wants a job with us
as a junior crime reporter.

And tomorrow's byline.

Byline?

We'll give her a shared byline.

Put her on.

Darling, if this pans out,
welcome on board.

But if this goes to sh*t,

you won't see your byline ever again.

There's no coming back from this, Shekhar.

Run it.

Immy!
Wake up. Read this.

- I read it.
- Jagruti. Jagruti.

It's nothing official.

So just don't worry.

Alright, we'll go to Shroff.
Let's ask him what's what.

And if need be, we'll go to
Dalvi and to Guha as well.

And we'll also go to CMO
if that's what it takes.

Just don't worry.

Okay?

Yes?

- Jagruti Pathak?
- Yes.

We have an arrest warrant for you.

You'll have to come to
the police station with us.

Please get dressed. Stay with her.

Come on.

Jagu!

- Uncle, call Bhavesh Sidhwani! Hurry!
- I'll call him now.

I'll be right behind, okay?

Where are you taking her?

Where are you taking my child?

- Call him!
- They took Jagu, Dad.
