Post by bunniefuu »

I've never obeyed you.

But I'll obey this last time,

please forgive me.

Sir, should I bring the toothpaste?

It's kept in there.

I've brushed my teeth already.

- I'd like some tea though.

- Sundar.

Sundar!

It's almost ready.

I'll bring it soon.

They overcook the tea, sir.

It turns into acid.

- Acid is the talk of the town now.

- Yes.

What's wrong, sir?

Now what do I say.

- Get some black too.

- Okay, sir.

I reached home at 3 last night.

My wife opened the door,

along with her mouth.

She kept nagging me.

I was feeling sleepy,

so I went and crashed on my bed.

But yet, she continued

with her nagging.

Sir, that's unstoppable.

It has to go on.

But I remained quiet.

I just wanted to sleep.

You did the right thing, sir.

There's nothing a

man could say anyway.

Then she came back again and said

that I was sleeping without eating.

To that I replied,

sleeping always curbs my

hunger, so excuse me now!

Sir, you say anything at times.

Surely your wife

must've laughed, right?

m*therf*cker, no!

Instead she got angry.

She thrashed all the

food right into the bin!

Sir, whenever food is wasted,

I really feel awful about this, sir.

Exactly.

No, it's fine.

and smashed my hand into the mirror.

But why did you hurt your hand, sir?

That too by a mirror.

Anyway, I'd already hit her soon as I entered home.

- Okay.

Even we feel bad.

Veer Bahadur

Your tea is here.

He's working very hard lately.

Day and night!

Is it tea or acid?

This is the flavor of this job.

Taste it.

Come on.

Are you married?

What?

Will you have some tea?

Why have you got him here?

Why is he here?

Sir, they won't allow

the girl to come here alone.

Why so?

Did he drop her to

school till the 12th grade?

No.

She has graduated now.

Just go and sit there.

And let him taste

flavour of this job.

Come on.

- Sir, I've already told you all.

- Why aren't you married yet?

Sir,

You'd told Ashish

that you will marry him.

Not at all.

But he's ready to marry you.

- No, no.

- Is he not ready?

No.

Whom else would

he marry if not you?

Sir, this is nonsense. I would

never marry a stupid man like him.

- What is it, sir?

- What?

Did you go to the

hospital to meet Parul?

- No, sir.

- You didn't?

No.

But she is your top best friend.

Didn't you go to meet her?

Anyway, I'll show

you her video clip.

Hold the phone and watch it.

- Sir

- Come on, look at your best friend.

Do you see her condition?

Sir.

- Sir, I was scared.

- Dear, say everything you know.

Don't cry. Just speak the truth.

Come on, speak up now.

Such is her condition.

Tell us now.

Sir.

Ashish had sent me an email,

mentioning that he's coming

to the town just to meet me.

He wanted to meet

outside the institute.

Sir, I was standing outside

the institute. He came,

threw blue color

water on me and left.

Did you tell Parul

that you went to meet

Ashish to have some fun.

He threw water on you.

- N-no.

- Why so?

Sir, ever since her

photograph was uploaded,

she stopped meeting people.

She even changed her phone number.

Why did Ashish leave the town?

Sir, Parul complained

about him to 1090.

Hence he was forced

to leave town.

Fine. Show her the email.

She's crying again.

Don't worry at all.

This ma'am standing here yelling,

is not to scare you

but to protect you.

Please come.

Listen.

At least sometimes,

ask your daughter

about her well-being.

She was so scared,

yet she didn't

dare to come to you.

Good.

Sir?

Very good.

Thank you, sir.

Ravi sir!

Your parents are here,

they've called you outside.

Is your father Jesus Christ?

Why do you say this, sir?

He's an acquaintance,

taking my mother to the hospital.

CBI.

What, sir?

Son, the CBI is after you.

C

CBI?

He is the girl’s father, right?

They are inquiring about you

on the pretext of taking

your mother to the hospital.

All the best!

Thank you, sir.

- Yes, must be busy with work.

- Yes.

- It's a good place.

- Yes.

Like this.

He's here.

- Mother, what happened?

- Nothing much.

We'd come to the hospital,

thought of meeting

you before leaving.

Mr. Ravi, are you alright?

Yes.

Were you annoyed at

my daughter yesterday?

No.

You're mistaken.

To be honest, she's talkative

and has a good sense of humor.

That's a good thing.

At least someone will

smile and laugh with me.

Do get this?

Your mother has answered for you.

Actually, there's a new case.

- Okay.

- Yes.

Mother must have told you.

- No.

- Mother? Didn't she tell you?

It's a girl.

Someone has acid-attacked her.

- Oh, dear!

- She is a decent girl.

She was also talkative

and laughed all the time.

I was proposed to marry her.

Didn't you tell them?

- Should we go now? He seems to be busy right now.

- Yes.

Veer Bahadur.

- Let's leave for the hospital.

- Yes, sir.

The girl has regained senses,

our case will be solved today.

Ma'am, your son is gem.

Uncle, be rest assured.

We have already

inquired a lot about him.

'Let's go.'

- Do you think Manav could do this?

- As per the CCTV footage

I saw the footage.

By his looks, he could've

hired someone for this.

Sir, by his look it seems

that he really loves the girl.

- Is it?

- Sir, this way.

He takes care of her at all times.

Really?

Alright then, let's do have

some caring words with him.

Sir, she did regain conscious.

She was wanting

to say something.

But then, she fell unconscious again.

Do you stay here?

In the hospital?

Yes, sir.

You're her boyfriend, right?

Yes, sir.

Sir, we tried to ask her

about who threw acid,

but she didn't say

So did she tell you?

Sir, she fell unconscious,

so, she

Why are you panicked?

Did she take your name?

Come on, let's go inside.

We'll present you and

then ask whether it was you.

- Come on, get up.

- Sir, the doctor is inside,

So what?

She just has to nod, that's all.

Come on.

Come on. Get up already.

- Hey! Are you Ravi Shankar Tripathi?

- Yes.

How are you?

- You're Mani Shankar's son, right?

- Right, sir.

Okay. Come on, I've

some work of you.

- Lets go.

- Sir.

There's case, but it's personal.

- Yes, sir. Please say.

- Sir, you just have to order.

To begin with, how is

your mother's health?

It was sad to know

about your father's death.

Yes, sir.

Mother is fine. Just a wee

pain in her waist at times.

- Okay.

- Yes.

I'd met your father at a Goshti.

He was a great writer.

He changed the entire

perspective of things.

Sir would rebel against the government.

- Are you anti-establishment, just like your father?

- No, sir.

'Stick the posters

all around the town,'

'turn all the matters

towards commotion,'

'children have learnt to write,'

'and are moving with a pencil',

'towards the wall.'

Written by Mr. Mani Shankar.

Yes, sir.

I still remember it.

Wow.

It's amazing, sir.

Wow.

She

is the chief medical

officer, Dr. Bharadwaj.

So continue with

what you were saying.

- Yes, go on.

- Yes.

In the past 6 months, there

have been dozens of cases filed,

about phosphorus poisoning.

Mostly coming from

the local farmer families.

Fertilizers contain phosphorus.

- Right?

- No.

Sir, this is not

farmers suicidal case.

A match stick contains phosphorus,

- in expl*sives

- Very good.

You are absolutely right.

The water is impure in that area.

The stone-crushing

factory there

is causing a lot of pollution.

Water is the source of life there.

And people are tampering

water to earn money.

Sir, in case of

water impurification,

people could have died in

bulk, more than hundreds.

Hey! How can you say this?

The death of 30-35 people

does it sound normal to you?

It's a huge matter

and critical matter.

Okay, sir.

You're right.

I have appointed several teams

to inspect the wells, lakes and

other water bodies in that area.

You must go there

and do an inquiry.

Okay, sir.

Okay, sir.

P.K. Mishra is an oaf!

I've understood his game.

Sir- Sir.

Parul wants to say

something about the case,

please come along, quickly.

'All my preparation for

Law has been ruined.'

It's like the bird flew

after crapping on our head.

Sorry, sir?

I meant, that crap, P.K Mishra.

The stone-crushing

factory he spoke of

belongs to Omprakash Verma.

An opposition leader.

He is aiming to stain

his name pre-elections.

And the m*therf*cker is using us as

bait for playing his dirty politics.

- Sir, what should we do now?

- Nothing.

You go to 1090,

and inquire about Ashish.

I'll prepare a fake report

and send to P.K. Mishra.

Okay, sir.

When you're cop,

you have to use

crow sh*t as food.

"Oh! The city witnesses

the mad winds again!"

"What storm(cyclone)

are we lost in again?"

"Do you know who hides in this storm?"

"Who did you go out looking for on this path?"

"Who did you go out

looking for in this mad sea?"

She doesn't wish to talk to you now,

why are you sending

blood-written letters?

Avoid sending photographs

also of blood-written letters.

Surely you know that Majnu had died.

Hello, I'm talking from Uttar

Pradesh Police, 1090 Women Helpline.

Ma'am, please don't worry at all.

- Sub-inspector Ravi Shankar Tripathi.

- Hello, sir.

Please wait. I'll join you.

- I'm able to view your location from here.

Please remain in a public place.

Do not panic.

Ma'am, the cops will be there soon.

Parul had lodged a complaint

against Ashish Awasthi.

What was the complaint

specifically about?

It was common.

Repetitive calls and

messages. That's it.

What was he messaging her?

I do have that. Let me tell you.

Here you go.

'I love you so much.'

'I can't live without you.'

Other one is,

- 'please call me back'

- Letter L used thrice,

letter E used four times

and A used seven times.

What do you mean?

- This means, he shouted his lungs out while saying 'please'.

- Oh.

Then again he wrote,

'answer my phone, please.'

This time, the letter E

and A were even more.

That means, he said

this much louder now.

Now here again,

'b*tch! answer my phone.'

Next is, 'I am sorry,

that I abused you,

I love you so much.

I can't live without you.'

That's it.

Then what did you guys do?

We phone-counseled Ashish Awasthi.

He was warned not to

call Parul Chaturvedi again.

Then we took feedback from Parul.

But she mentioned that

he was still calling her.

Then what?

Then, we moved on

to the next procedure.

FFR.

Friends-Family-Relatives.

We phoned his family and friends.

But why?

But why would you

call his relatives?

So they could persuade

Ashish to stop troubling any girl.

Luckily, this is his native place

so we phoned his uncles too.

His defamation in the

family mellowed him.

His family sent him out of the city.

Then?

Post this we phoned

Parul for another feedback.

To which we learnt, no more

phone calls were troubling her.

Case solved.

The girl is hospitalized

at the moment.

Someone carried out

an acid attack on her.

Sir, this was so unfortunate.

These people are

doing a great job here.

We must learn from them.

You and Jagdish only believe in

making people dance and do crap!

Do crap, what?

Sir, think about the boy for once.

What was his mistake after all?

The girl promised to marry him.

Later she advised him to marry

her friend because she won't.

Is this some joke?

The family is already tensed.

They have been defamed.

Above all, these

people keep calling

and trouble them more.

Now you say.

What could a man do?

Drums, Animals, and

women should be subjected to beating.

Tulsidas is not wrong

when he wrote it.

Take Mr. Jagdish for example.

He injured his hand.

He banged it into the mirror!

Mother.

She's out.

Will be back soon.

You, please step outside.

I'm almost done making your bed

No, leave that alone. It's

always like this. You come out.

Please come.

- Hi.

- Hi.

What were you doing inside?

- Your mother asked me to

- Why do you keep phoning her?

I didn't, she called me. In fact,

I came here leaving my office work.

Just stop with

whatever you are doing.

You're wasting time.

I’m not those type of

men who are secretive.

If you want to know

about me better ask me.

You seem to be annoyed as if I have

turned down your marriage proposal.

What?

I am annoyed

because of this inquiry.

Yes, I am inquiring.

I want to know you, better.

But I'm feeling bad that you're

least interested in knowing me.

Whatever is visible

is fine with you.

I'm hot headed.

I

I got extremely furious.

I wonder where that boy must

be wandering with a low head.

There's a new law for r*pe.

Any man making physical relation with

a girl with a promise to marry her,

and doesn't marry her,

it will be considered as r*pe.

Are you serious, sir?

We'll explain this to Ravi,

not to do such things

before marriage.

You're laughing.

Sir, may I say something?

Day before yesterday,

I raised hand on my wife too.

Bloody,

I wonder, whether anyone

would understand this,

it feels awful, sir.

It's disgusting.

Besides,

what does Ravi feel,

will he arrest a wanted criminal?

Veer Bahadur.

Let's go to the hospital.

They've called us.

Is your inquiry done?

What?

Is your inquiry done?

Sir, I got the inquiry discontinued.

Good job.

Anyway,

is the marriage date fixed yet?

Sir, for now, I've kept

this matter on hold.

What does this even mean?

The girl will say that she is ready,

and you say it's on hold.

Are you stupid?

Sir, how's your hand?

This is how you answer.

Awesome.

Now you're a perfect cop.

Mr. Yadav, applaud.

Clap your hands.

- Sir.

- Mr. Yadav.

Let's go.

Come on, they are waiting.

Enough now.

Yes.

Listen up.

Later come to my house for dinner.

- We have to think about the women power too.

- Yes, sir.

Is it done?

Sir.

Let's go, sir.

Where?

Let's get that m*therf*cker, Ashish.

First, we must ask her.

But he threw on the other girl.

- Please, sir.

- When did he do that?

Sir, why aren't you

understanding this?

She was supposed

to be acid-attacked

but practiced by throwing

color on her friend first.

This is why he called Rashmi.

And then,

Mr. Yadav.

Is it easy to throw acid on someone?

The one who threw acid

had come by a scooter.

Whereas Ashish doesn't

have a driving license.

You make no sense at all.

Do you think every bike rider in

the world has their driving license?

You're unbelievable!

Two days ago, you

were sorry for the boy

and that he was being misdealt.

But now, you are

keen on arresting him.

Sit down.

Sir, what do I tell you?

I feel bad when I

hear the boy's part,

and

When I see the girl,

I feel hurt.

I swear on God, I'm all confused.

I'm too

confused right now.

Will you have some tea?

- You're always joking with me.

- Sir.

You can come inside.

Throw this away.

Ashish email.

- He emailed you? What was the email about?

- Yes.

'Meet me now.'

'Or I will k*ll myself.'

Yes.

- 'Meet me or I'll k*ll myself?'

- Yes.

Yes.

So did you also go to meet him?

He'd emailed Rashmi also

to meet him, and she did.

But Rashmi is fine.

She is okay.

So he threatened you.

Why did you go to meet him?

She wanted to ask

about the photographs.

What?

He had some of Parul's photograph.

Maybe he's the one who

uploaded on the internet.

Ashish?

Because Manav has

denied that he didn't do it.

Did Ashish have

your photographs too?

How did he get them?

Did you send him?

Did you see Ashish?

Do you think, it could be him?

- Anyway, a helmet?

- Yes.

Why didn't you tell us about Ashish?

- We've already been defamed a lot.

- You

Your daughter is hospitalized.

And the suspect is roaming freely.

And you're bothered

about being defamed.

Even though he's caught

will my daughter recover?

Mr. Yadav, let's go.

Sir, the girl said that someone

came on bike and threw it.

But according to sir,

Ashish doesn't have

a driving license,

he doesn't know to ride, so

he could not be the suspect.

Yes.

As if nobody rides

without a license here.

Just get him and close this case.

Do you need more chapati?

Ask them.

- No.

- No, we are through.

Anything else?

Nothing.

Throw the rest into the bin.

Is Ashish inside?

- No.

- Yes, he is.

Dear, is he in or not?

- He is not.

- Stupid girl, he is there.

Who are you?

Is Ashish inside?

He is not here.

Didn't I tell you?

I'm his uncle.

Not here.

- Why are you here?

- What are you hiding from us?

Please come back later.

He is accused of

acid-attacking someone.

- He doesn't have license.

- Sir, please.

Where is the boy?

"Come I’ll take you…"

"Come I’ll take you there"

"Come I’ll take you

(where you’ll find what you seek)"

"Where the thunder fell"

"Where the thunder fell"

"So sell everything

(even your last breaths)"

"So sell it all(the illusions)"

"Come I’ll take you

(where you’ll find what you seek)"

"Where the thunder fell"

"Where the thunder fell"

"I feel so empty"

"I feel so bare"

"Stuck in the water

and yet I crave for it"

"My throat seems tied to this storm"

"It seems this anxiety

will now drown me"

"Try it"

"For it’s you who shall

break open this cyclone"

"Or jump your way out"

"Climb on the twirls of this storm"

"Come I’ll take you…"

"Come I’ll take you there"

"Come I’ll take you

(where you’ll find what you seek)"
