01x02 - Cat and Mouse

[bunniefuu]

Let's start a tea business,

it'll be a super hit.

That's awesome.

- Here she is.

- Namaste.

- Hello.

- Hello.

Place it here.

Shaurya, serve them.

Tea.

- Tea for you.

- Thank you.

Please.

Have.

Wow. Genuinely nice tea.

Thank you.

Not just tea, her cooking is

Your daughter won't need to cook

in Canada.

- Really?

- Maid does all the chores.

After all he earn in dollars.

Absolutely.

Perks of working in the best MNC.

They pamper employees as their son in laws.

He has always lived abroad.

But he is such a good boy.

You know

Non-smoker and a teetotaller.

He always wanted

a cultured Indian bride.

Someone to manage the home.

That's so sweet.

But actually, I won't quit my job.

Listen dear,

you guys can talk in private.

Yeah, sure. Why not?

Please come.

Go.

Okay, sure.

I like it.

What?

That you are so bold.

Yeah, my parents are a bit old school.

But I like modern fiery Indian women.

- Good.

- Me too.

- Nice.

- Just a moment.

Yeah.

No?

Oh, so you smoke?

Yes.

Which is your brand?

I abstain from it.

Teeth are yellow.

Your hands were trembling

when I served tea.

Just a moment.

Smoke stains on your right hand.

Clearly early stages

of carpel tunnel syndrome.

Its beneficial to know a cop,

but it can be detrimental too.

This was just a trailer.

I know all your dirty secrets.

Chill, bro.

My lips are sealed.

He was highly educated.

Earned a hefty salary too.

Was a green card holder.

Such a nice boy.

- Jai Hind, sir.

- Jai Hind.

Shaurya, reach office right now.

Okay sir, I'll be there in half an hour.

Shaurya.

It's an alarming situation here.

Mr. Pathania is here in person.

Situation must be alarming.

I have always supported the system.

No matter who helms the power,

I'm always the policy maker.

Since Mr. Pathania is involved

in this case.

It's a high priority case.

And I want you to lead the case.

Sir, with all due respect,

Mr. Pathania's presence,

at crime branch,

won't just be for money.

There is definitely

something more to it.

It's imperative for me to know that.

Well, you are right.

It's not only about money.

He broke my little girl's heart.

And he also stole some

sensitive documents from me.

Which could shake the nation.

Being a sensitive information,

I won't be able to divulge more.

So please go out there and nab him.

By hook or by crook.

I'll try my best, sir.

Try?

I'm sure,

there is an experienced officer

joining her team too.

Somebody who believes

in delivering results.

The one who is good at their job.

She is my best officer, Mr. Pathania.

Trust me.

All the best Shaurya.

Thank you, sir.

Jai Hind, sir.

Jai Hind.

Relax Mr. Pathania, she is good.

Trust me.

Wow.

Confidential document.

100 million in cash.

Things are not as simple

as it seems to be.

Or Pathania wouldn't personally

step into crime branch office.

That's true, Brijesh.

A man like Pathania,

can pull of a coup in a day.

Why is he so desperate to nab a thug?

- Brijesh.

- Yes.

It's super fun.

Yes, I'm enjoying it too.

Give it a thought.

He must be wily enough to slap

and slide off from a tiger's mouth.

Impersonator.

Cheater.

Ajay Chauhan's identity

just doesn't exist.

What rubbish.

He exists, but he isn't the one.

I won't waste our time

by asking the routine questions.

Let's just cut to the chase.

Did you notice anything

unusual about him?

Everything was unusual about him.

You know,

He was one in a million.

He was absolutely amazing, loving,

caring and loyal to me.

Loyal?

Do you have his photograph?

He was camera conscious, when clicked.

He hated loud attention.

He was flamboyant.

He barely spoke

but his confidence was unbeatable.

He gifted me this on

our first week anniversary.

It's a memento to cherish the day.

Anything specific, any habit,

any birthmark, any tattoo?

Yeah, one.

Whenever he felt nervous,

or had to decide something.

He would rub his thumb.

As if being sure from unsure.

He was always confident

about everything.

That's what I loved about him.

In the times of casual

hook-ups and flings,

he was really serious about me.

He wanted to celebrate every moment

with me,

that too without crossing any limits.

Please find him.

Please have some water.

He was extremely sharp witted.

And his PR abilities were terrific.

He could charm a stranger

into his bestie in minutes.

Maybe he knew the magic spell.

For example, the helipad,

many VIPs flew from there.

But nobody dared to raise their eyes.

But they always saluted Ajay.

Sir, only affluent people come here.

But he was pure gold.

Always tipped me with a Rs 2000 note.

Not only me, but to the entire staff.

What a swag.

Like a film hero.

Uncle, did I ask whether

he was a movie villain or hero?

That's for me to decide.

Such high praises!

You want him as your son in law?

Do you give this on rent?

Check at the office.

Number of rides?

Just once.

That too before the chopper ride.

He got breathless.

Why?

Hadn't carried his asthma pump.

So, we had to cancel the trip.

But yeah,

he was very passionate

about these machines,

and drones.

Speed drones.

In fact,

he wanted to learn to fly drones.

And I referred him to

the hattrick winner of

Asian Drone Flier Championship.

Yes, Ajay Chauhan was here.

Trained for 15 days too.

But more than flying his interest

was in drone making.

Speed and strength.

He ordered a special drone

worth 2 million from Japan a week ago.

Which the Chinese

use for delivering food.

Okay sir, thank you very much.

Welcome.

He flew the drone

and blew Pathania's mind away.

Good joke, shall we get back to work?

I want a detail list of drone fliers

from the drone show. From head to toe.

And the GPS locater

of all the drones that flew.

Here it is. Exactly as instructed.

GPS location of all the drones

from the drone show.

This means,

all drones were flying at a speed

of 30meters per second.

What?

I mean.

Get the weighing scales.

Okay.

Place it here.

Have replicated the original

2000 denomination notes, ma'am.

Brijesh. If 10 million

is weighed in notes of Rs 2000,

it will be 4,900 grams.

- Yes.

- So, 100 million

It will be 49000kilos.

Does it seem

that it can carry stuff of 50 kilos?

Oh sh*t.

So, the bag was empty.

Then where did the money vanish?

What's the conman's

most powerful weapon?

Diversion.

Prince impersonating as Ajay,

would have tried to distract too.

Firstly, smoke would've emitted

from Manohar's AC duct.

Or it was done on

purpose to distract him.

An AC engineer opens the duct

and repairs it.

Then suddenly there is a short circuit,

which causes a blast.

Manohar did leave his room with the bag.

Manohar returned back

after the AC was repaired.

Engineer cleverly attached

a hook to the bag.

And then a huge drone flew the bag away.

But didn't you say the drone

couldn't carry weight of 50 kilos?

- Isn't it?

- That's correct.

Short circuit was a pre-planned tactic

not an accident.

To distract Manohar.

The bag which Manohar took outside

was empty.

Which means the drone flew an empty bag.

Taking advantage of the smoke caused

by short circuit,

engineer must have pushed

the money bag into the AC duct.

How can you be so sure?

As Ajay's AC duct had similar

scratch marks, like Manohar's.

And both ducts are interconnected.

Ajay took advantage of the ruckus

and chaos.

And fled with the bag.

- Brijesh.

- What is it ma'am?

Remove this.

Want me to remove the glass.

Be careful.

Stick out.

That's a hidden camera.

Just a moment, magnify this please.

Yes.

Who is he?

Don't know, but can find out.

As each one's entry and exit is noted

at a private party.

Examine it.

Sorry Rituji,

but a 6 ft tall, French bearded,

man was caught stealing

from a jeweller on CCTV.

As his face resembled

the super star of Bollywood.

But that doesn't mean

we'll nab the actor for theft.

Silence.

Jaidevji, your client

and you have one thing in common.

You both ace in digressing the topic.

But I won't do that.

I'll be right on point.

Your Honour, to prove that

Pawan Kumar Bawaria is Ajay Chauhan.

I would like to call my

first and most important witness

in the witness box.

Mr. Sarvesh Pathania.

Call him.

Mr.Sarvesh Pathania

is a member of Parliament.

Is a successful businessman.

Delhi government has awarded him

the Visionary Award,

for city ideas and development.

Mr. Pathania.

Is he the same Ajay

Chauhan who duped you?

Yes, Your Honour.

He is the one.

Is he the one who cheated

your daughter Vinita?

Mental as*ault.

It's not for the fraud of 100 million,

but to file a lawsuit

for the mental as*ault on my daughter.

But unfortunately, sir.

The law of our country

doesn't consider it as a crime.

That's all from my side.

Your witness, please.

Mr. Pathania.

Isn't he Ajay Chauhan, sir?

Maybe I just said that.

Fine, let's talk about facts then.

Statement given to crime branch

by your daughter and you.

According to that,

Ajay Chauhan is 6 ft tall.

But Pawan Kumar is 6 ft 2 inches tall.

A human error of a few inches

is very common.

Then why did she give a wrong statement?

Is it common too?

My Lord,

neither the height, nor face,

nor the finger prints.

Nothing is matching,

yet the prosecution has made

him the guilty.

Only by suspicion.

The day Pathania sir was duped.

Pawan was in Mumbai that day.

These are his travel documents.

I have some documents too.

Mr.Pawan is at present travelling

business class, from Delhi to Bangkok.

Faking documents is a child's play.

What?

Silence.

Jaidevji, give us solid proof.

Sorry, but I am trying

to present the evidence.

Display your smartness

only when you have some solid proof.

Okay.

Proceed.

So, Mr. Pathania,

was the fraud of 100 million

your own money?

I wouldn't file a

law suit for your money.

You have sworn to tell the truth.

So, please ponder over it,

and say the truth.

I object, Your Honour.

Jaidevji, is digressing from the topic.

Over ruled.

Since an hour,

I've exactly stuck to the point.

I have got the proof.

Firstly, the defence will try

to attack on your weak spots.

Of course, I know that, Ritu.

And I can handle it.

No, you can't.

Excuse me.

A few months back, during elections,

you had submitted your income

affidavit to the election commission.

- Yeah, so.

- According to that

the worth of all his financial

assets and properties,

is of 10 million.

Just a minute.

10 million, 30 lakhs,

65 thousand and 543 to be precise.

Your total asset is worth 10 million.

How do you have 100 million?

The money you don't have,

can't be stolen.

Either he lied to the election

commission to contest the election.

Or he is lying in the courtroom today.

Are you trying to say,

a fraud of 100 million can't be proved?

Of course, it can be proved.

But your political career might

be at a risk.

Defence will prove you to be a liar,

and will try to finish

off your witness credibility.

Your information is absolutely correct.

But your allegations are wrong.

My net worth is exactly

as what the lawyer has calculated.

As all the business and properties

are owned by my daughter.

I'm a mere caretaker.

Do whatever has to be done.

I want that rascal in jail. That's all.

It's not that simple.

The biggest problem is your daughter,

whom even you can't reign.

Hello sir.

Was your dad happy

with your relation with Ajay Chauhan?

Initially, like any caring guardian,

he had some concerns.

But later on,

he consented for my happiness.

When he vanished on the launch day,

why did you assume he had fled?

He could have met with an accident.

Or maybe his enemies got him k*lled.

I object.

Sustained.

Jaidevji, prove it with evidence.

I'm warning you.

Sorry, but just for the records.

As she just stated,

her dad Mr. Sarvesh Pathania,

was usure about her relation

with Ajay Chauhan.

Sir, I didn't mean to say that.

Your Honour,

if we do accept Jaidevji's,

theory to be true.

Yet why would Pathania display

it so a pompously?

Her engagement, launch of Udaan,

for a man like him, image is everything.

Why would he risk his political career?

Like a responsible citizen,

to make others aware of frauds.

His intention was

to just to prevent others

from suffering the same

trauma and nothing more than that.

Mr. Pathania has 154 criminal cases

against him.

And he has come out clean

in all these cases.

Use new tricks to confuse the court.

Crime branch has failed

to nab the real culprit,

and I'm being blamed for tricking?

Brother Jaidev.

Sorry, but I have evidence.

Permission granted.

- The complete thing?

- Yes, bro.

My Lord,

you wanted solid proof.

Here is a CCTV footage.

This footage will proof my client

was in Mumbai that day.

Play it.

Rituji, do you have the Bangkok footage?

The footage is of 30th March 2021.

The day Mr. Pathania was going

to launch Udaan in Noida.

Please watch the place carefully.

It's in Mumbai.

Check the date and time.

30th March, 2021.

At 5.30 in the evening.

As per them, Ajay Chauhan was

with them for 5 to 7 in the evening.

They have the footage,

40 % of which resembles

with the face with Pawan Kumar.

But here it is 100% accurate.

How can one man,

at the same time be at two places?

So, it's clear,

whosoever met them as Ajay Chauhan,

wasn't Pawan Kumar.

Vinita, you may go back.

I cannot believe this.

Rituji.

You claimed your

charge sheet to be true.

CCTV tampering.

I want custody of Pawan Kumar

for a week and I can prove it.

This is exploitation.

So is the CCTV camera tampered too?

An innocent man is being framed.

Jaidevji, let me decide that.

Whether he is innocent or guilty.

Rituji, your evidences turned

to be a damp squib.

This wasn't expected

from a lawyer like you.

In the past 6 months,

it's only been theories.

For what? Just a sketch!

I think your department lacks

the intelligence,

and the network for this case.

Either provide me

with an experienced officer,

or I'll handle it my way, and

you bloody well know what that means.

Pathania sir.

He is not wrong though, ma'am.

To butcher wild animals,

we'll have to sharpen our blade.

Get to the point.

Please quit smoking.

I meant, cut the crap.

Think with a scamster's psyche

and not of a cop.

What?

Like increasing our PR.

Till now we were hammering away unaided.

Let's use the benefit of our department.

What say?

Are you aware of the Venus flytrap?

Yeah, have heard about it.

It's an astonishing plant.

Bright red beautiful flower.

Butterflies are attracted by

its sweet fragrance and bright colours.

To drink its nectar,

Venus bows down

as the butterfly inches closer.

For a moment,

this is nature's most beautiful scene.

But the minute the butterfly let's

her guards down.

The flower traps him inside.

Like a cage.

And it dies fluttering in agony.

He rejuvenates his

nectar from her blood.

And waits for his next prey.

The Venus flytrap

cons its own victims out of their life.

Exactly like Mr. Pawan Kumar Bawaria.

He targets his victim,

identifies their vulnerable points,

attacks them,

dupes them of their money and vanishes.

Sorry, My Lord.

But this isn't a botany classroom

but a courtroom.

And isn't she digressing now?

I'll be back.

-My lord,

I request to dismiss

all the charges against my client,

and to acquit him.

What's the hurry?

Your Honour,

I would like to call my next witness

to the witness box please.

Permission granted.

Mrs. Dimpy Patel.

Do you recognize Pawan Kumar Bawaria?
