Kaalidas 2 (2026) Movie Script
Edited by "Mo Shaban"
The good stay away from sin.
Even a little fault feels big to them.
Searching for truth...
brings many questions.
The right questions,
strip away everything built on lies.
But...
most people avoid the truth!
Because the journey is difficult.
People pursue their
own comfortable answers.
They don't realize how
it will affect their lives.
And they don't even care.
When decisions that need intelligence
are made with emotional discrimination,
shaped by the stories we've been told,
our society falls apart!

Sorry, sir. I couldn't save them.
The girl's father is the killer.
"KAALIDAS 2"
Sir!
Who do you think you are?
James Bond?
No, sir.
Why would you go alone?
What if he'd gone for your neck instead?
Sir, it was a critical situation.
So I had to.
Only a handful of officers do their job.
If something had happened to you,
where would we be?
Sorry, sir.
Hey, George.
When did you come?
Hello, sir.
I just got here.
Sit down.
Did you hear what he's done?
Sir.
He's always been a bit emotional.
Leaving the department, huh?
Finally going to enjoy
some peace and quiet?
At least you're letting me rest now.
We'll miss you, sir.
Okay.
Come
Mithra...
Mithra...
Sweetie,
Dad.
what are you doing here?
Dad, I saw a dog.
Didn't I tell you not to go alone?
I was with Juno, Dad.
Aren't you a good girl?
No... I'm a bad girl.
Shall we go see Mom?
Look, everyone's dancing.
Without a word
Who found my soul?
Only my heart knew
How it bloomed!
The rain feels warm
Is this... love?
The fire is freezing
Is this... love?
All these changes around me
Did it happen because of you?
Don't record
Is he coming?
Yes.
Murphy's hearing is
scheduled for 11 a.m. today.
I'll be there.
You come too.
I'll be there.
The subscriber you're calling
is currently busy.
The subscriber you're calling
is currently busy.
Please call again later.
He's not answering?
Yes, Brother.
Sir, Perambur Murphy's
hearing is today.
The Murugan gang is lining up a hit.
To hell with them!
If he dies in court,
and we lose our jobs,
we'll have nothing left!
Brother.
You scumbag!
I'm in court.
Why do you keep calling?
Brother, Murugan's men are inside to
finish you off!
Wait behind the courthouse.
I'll come.
Alright, I'll deal with it.
Sir, it's Pandiyan.
Who's in there?
Who the hell are you?
Leave me
Who the heck are you?
Come on
Come on.
Bring it on.
The water came up to here,
then pulled back.
The body was swept here.
It's confirmed.
This wasn't Murugan's gang.
Someone else led us away
and carried this out.
Hello.
Good morning, sir.
I'm one of Natarajan sir's junior.
Why are you calling so early?
I tried to reach you
yesterday, but I couldn't.
I need your signature
on Vidya Madam's
case documents for submission.
Meet me at the
Royapettah Mortuary by ten.
Sure, sir. I'll be there.
Your name?
I'm Stephen, sir.
Okay, Stephen.
Son, are you Stephen?
Come up this way.
His hands were tied.
But there are signs of struggle.
We didn't find any hair or
tissue under his nails.
Who are you?
Sir, he's with me.
He is Advocate Natarajan's junior.
You're here for a case study?
No, sir. He's here for
something personal of mine.
Okay. Is Sakthivel handling
the gang war cases?
We aren't sure if this is a gang war.
For now, it's under my jurisdiction.
However, a special team will take over.
And I'll be relieved if they do.
Did you bring the papers, Stephen?
Stephen.
Yes, sir!
Do you have the papers?
Yes, sir.
Okay, sir. Let me know when
the reports are ready.
I'll pick it up myself.
See you, sir.
See you then.
You seem familiar, Stephen.
Why are they all here?
Send them away!
Make them leave.
Everyone, leave now.
No one should be standing here.
Aravind, what's this?
Clear them out.
Sir, if you catch him,
bring him to me.
Don't register a case.
Hey!
You're talking to an officer!
What's wrong with
what he asked?
He died under your watch,
didn't he?
Watch your tone.
You were there too.
You watched it unfold.
And what did you do?
You tipped them, didn't you?
No, sir.
Your dear Brother's been
stitched up.
Take him and leave!
Clear the area.
No one stays here.
Go on.
Hey, take this.
The video has crossed 10K likes.
We're slaying, bro.
Harshitha, give me back my phone.
This is great!
Achu, don't run.
Hey...
Sorry, brother.
I'm sorry!
Hey, wait.
Where are you two headed?
Are you going to the terrace?
Mom, please.
How many times have I told you not to
go to the terrace alone?
Just for today.
Please, Mom.
What's this?
It's already late, and
everyone will be here.
Go get ready.
Okay, let's go.
Whenever we complain,
you say you have no money.
Then how could you afford
this stupid party?
Is this damn New Year's
party really necessary?!
Screw you guys!
It smells like dog in here.
If I allow this,
the association turns on me.
Hey, what is it?
Madam, madam, wait!
Why are you doing all this?
You should've just asked me.
Only if I ask?
You're okay, madam?
Mithra...
Huh?
I'm heading out.
Stay with Mom, okay?
Bye.
Bye.
Hello.
How did the event go?
It was great. You missed it.
What could I do?
A shoot came up out of nowhere!
Alright, what's Mithra doing?
She's here...
playing with the kids.
Okay. I just called to say that
I'll be home late.
Can you call me after you get home?
I'll hang up then. Bye.
Okay.
What happened?
I'll be back, Roopa.
Mithra...
Mithra...
Damn.
You better call Gokul.
Hello.
Mithra is missing, Gokul.
Hey, are you kidding?
She's missing.
Did you check the house?
I locked the door before I left.
I'm scared.
Okay, okay.
Search for her again.
I'll be there as soon as I can.
I'm coming.
Here are the child's details, sir.
Mithra. A three-and-a-half-year-old?
Yes, sir.
W4, right?
Hello, sir.
I'm Roopasundari.
This--
Happy New Year, sir.
What a way
for the year to start.
I'm the apartment secretary.
He's the security chief.
One second.
Happy New Year, dear.
I'm coming home late,
so go to bed.
I'm at an apartment,
investigating a case.
A child is missing.
Why are you panicking?
We'll talk in the morning.
Now go to bed.
Where are the child's parents?
They're over there.
How long has
the girl been missing?
Close to two hours now, sir.
We checked the CCTV thoroughly, sir.
Found nothing.
How many cameras are there?
Thirty-two in total, sir.
There must be around
350 flats here, right?
There are 568, sir.
Just 32 cameras for a place this big?
It's like a whole village
split into blocks.
Sir, let me bring them to you.
Please.
Thyagu.
Sir?
We don't have enough men.
Can you call for backup?
It's New Year's night...
Try calling.
Okay, sir.
Mithra.
She's three-and-a-half, right?
Don't worry, madam.
She's too young to stay awake.
She must be asleep somewhere.
Don't worry, we'll find her.
Did you check
your house thoroughly?
The party was here, so none
of us went home. We stayed back.
That's why.
When she wakes up and gets back,
there needs to be someone at home.
Go home.
Go with her, sir.
No, sir.
I'll wait here, sir.
Stay with her, sir.
We'll take care.
Madam.
Leave, Gokul. I'll be here.
Aravind.
Sir.
Check if there's a drainage
or a borewell nearby.
Okay, sir.
Sir, what are you saying?
Please don't panic, madam.
This is just a formality.
Can I get the residents' details?
Sure, sir.
Take the residents' details from her
and check all the bachelors staying here.
Yes, sir.
Call CCTV Rangan here.
Okay, sir.
Thank you, madam.
Sure, sir.
How many of you are here?
Four of us, sir.
I only see three of you.
Where's the other guy?
He's out of town, sir.
Where?
Namakkal.
You should've gotten married instead.
So only bachelors get questioned?
Not married men?
You think they're saints?
No man's a saint!
They get a free pass, just because
there's a woman at home watching them.
This house, right?
It's locked.
Let's come here later.
Brother!
You're living here?
Is this your place?
Yes, sir.
How come you're here?
A kid named Mithra
has gone missing.
We're searching for her.
Would you like to come in?
No need.
Can I get some water?
Who is he?
He's Advocate Natarajan's junior.
Here you go, sir.
Asked for water, and
you're offering juice?
Please have it, sir.
Give it to me.
Thanks, brother.
Okay, sir.
Have some.
I'm good.
Come on, have it.
He's proven he's one of us.
I asked for water,
but we got juice instead.
Okay.
Sir.
It's been so long,
and she's still not home.
Please, tell me.
She'll be safe, right?
Don't panic.
We'll find her definitely.
As if!
Please, Prasanna.
Madam, I know this guy.
He couldn't even track
what his wife did.
He's supposed to find our daughter?
Hello, sir.
Mind your words.
Brother!
That's too much...
It's alright.
This isn't new.
Just focus on the work.
Sir!
The kid's parents are anxious.
How can you be so calm?
Who are you, sir?
I'm Doctor Prasanna.
I'm Gokul's friend.
You claim to be a doctor
and say things like this?
When the family's waiting
nervously outside the operation theatre,
won't your stress add to it?
Please cooperate, sir.
That was a nice speech.
But only four of you are
taking care of this investigation.
We've called another team, sir.
Where?
When, sir?
Prasanna, they're doing their job.
Madam...
I know people.
I'll talk to the DC.
Else, nothing will get done.
Do you have a pet dog?
No, sir.
But she loves dogs.
Sir?
Sir, as expected, no team was available
on New Year's night.
What to do now, sir?
Okay, we'll handle it.
Okay, sir.
Honey, it's really late already.
Won't she be hungry?
Can you get all the kids
in the apartment together?
It's past midnight. Not sure
if the parents will be okay with that.
It's okay, madam.
Please make them understand.
Would they stay quiet
if it were their kids?
Sure, sir.
Where else?
I'm here, obviously.
I'm looking at a creature like you.
So you still haven't started?
I've been waiting for you so long!
Hello?
Vaishu?
Pay them.
It's from a known shop. It's fine, madam
Not happening.
Pay them.
Okay, madam.
What's not happening?
I was talking here.
You said you'd wait
for me for a lifetime.
You can't wait for 30 minutes?
I said it while I was in a certain mood.
What mood?
What mood, you ask?
I'll tell you in person.
Hold on.
Hello? Yes, sir.
Vaishnavi.
A child missing case.
Get to the spot immediately.
Yes, sir.
Kalidas is there.
He'll handle the case.
Just coordinate with him.
Okay, sir.
Okay.
Hello?
I think I'll be late--
So, you're not coming?
I knew it.
I knew this was coming.
I left it all
and waited here for you.
How can you be so selfish?
Don't you ever think about me?
You'll never understand.
I'm so sick of this.
Hey!
Where's the place?
It's nearby, madam.
Madam.
Where is Das?
He's upstairs, madam.
Who is she?
Assistant Commissioner Vaishnavi.
Oh.
She looks young.
She's an IPS, sir.
Madam.
I'm Doctor Prasanna.
I called the DC
and got you to come here.
Oh, that was you?
Instead of looking for the child,
he's wasting his time with the other kids.
Sir, we'll take care.
Will you please?
Who is Mithra's friend here?
[all] Me, uncle.
Me.
Nice.
You tell me.
When did you see Mithra last?
I saw her playing at the party.
Really?
Think again.
Was anyone there with her?
Uncle, Mithra was playing
with her father last.
Oh, nice. Okay.
Sir?
AC Vaishnavi is here.
So soon?
Madam!
Okay. If any of you spot Mithra,
tell him--
What's happening, Das?
I was enquiring these kids.
They might know about the missing child.
Send them home.
No, madam...
Check the time, Das!
They are sleepy.
Send them all.
Still looking at the
case as a disappearance?
That one, madam.
I was asking the kids about it.
Stop repeating the same thing!
Anything new?
Any breakthroughs yet?
Rangan is reviewing the CCTV.
There are just 32 cameras.
That's how many they've installed.
That leaves a lot of blind spots.
So we can't say for sure
if the kid left the apartment.
All the borewells, open wells, and drains
nearby have been thoroughly checked.
We have the bachelors' list and have
begun the initial investigation, madam.
You did everything
with just six people?
Yes, madam.
Please use your brain, Das.
Why didn't you call for a team?
So you wanted to crack the case yourself
and get praised, huh?
No, madam.
We did call for a backup.
They were unavailable
due to New Year's night.
You could've asked me!
Useless.
Sir?
Hello?
Good evening, sir.
Sir, we'll need backup
for the missing child case.
Shall I send a battalion?
How many of you does it take to
find a kid?
I said Das is handling it, didn't I?
Act like an IPS officer, alright?
Okay, sir.
Madam.
Are they sending a team?
Get a list of all the vendors
who came to the party.
Check all the vehicles that left
when the child went missing.
Sure, madam.
And delivery vehicles as well.
Inspect every nook and cranny
of this apartment.
And we need volunteers
from the apartment.
Why volunteers, madam?
It's been four hours
since the child went missing.
It's looking less and less
like a missing case.
Madam.
I strongly feel Mithra is
still in the apartment premises.
I suspect there's someone else
behind this.
Sir!
Yes.
Oh no!
Brother, did you find out
whose dog this is?
Sir!
Mithra's toy's leash, sir.
I want to see Mithra!
Check right away.
How did this end up here?
Oh God!
Make sure no residents
leave the apartment.
Okay, madam.
We might have the accused among them.
The apartment must be treated
as a fully confined zone.
Sure, madam.
Don't let the child's
parents go anywhere.
Else, the investigation
will get disturbed.
Okay, madam.
Also...
who owns that dead dog?
No idea, sir.
So why don't you share
the dog's photo on WhatsApp
and find the owner?
So the dog's owner did
something to the child?
That's possible.
We need a place to work.
You can use the clubhouse, madam.
Rangan, did you find anything?
Sir, there are so many blind spots.
I'm searching.
No luck.
Did anyone reply?
Not yet, madam.
Are there any dog lovers here?
I don't think so--
Sir, I know.
madam!
Bagavadhar.
A-702.
He knows everything
about every dog here.
Sir, I need information on
one of the dogs from our apartments.
I know nothing about
any dog from here.
Sir, a four-year-old is missing, sir.
Sir, can you tell me
about this dog, please?
It's a Tibetan Shih Tzu.
It's a cross breed.
Sir, do you know
who this dog belongs to?
I do!
Sir, the last time we checked,
this house was locked
Hey, Fault.
I said no crimes series, man!
Play some romance.
Check inside.
Sir.
House farming, huh?
Hey! Hey!
Happy New Year, bro!
Bro?
Where's the dog?
Hey, shut up.
Hey!
Where's the child?
A child?
We have to make one.
How dare you?
Hey, where is Mithra?
What the hell?
Who is Mithra?
How will I know?
Ask this guy.
He knows all area girls.
How dare you?
I saw you, my dear,
I forget myself here
Tell me.
Where's the child?
Answer me, damn it!
I don't know, sir
Get up, I say!
I don't have anything
Farming inside the house, is it?
Where's the kid?
Tell me!
I'm telling you
Madam, they seem to be useless.
Hey...
Shut up!
Das, get me a list of everyone
who owns this dog breed.
Check with veterinary doctors, kennels,
vet spas, and foster homes.
Sure, madam.
There are five veterinary hospitals,
six dog spas,
10 dog kennels
and six foster homes, sir.
Hey...
Just keep quiet.
Thiyagu, check these.
Okay, sir.
Sir...
Hold on.
HEY!
Will you ever listen?
Isn't this the dog that died?
Does this camera
have a front angle?
Check the fourth camera.
Hey, you!
HEY!
4-0-5, sir.
405 is also in the
bachelor list I gave you.
Brother, didn't you
check that house?
Tell me.
Sir, the thing is...
He is Advocate Natarajan sir's junior.
He lives there.
What?!
Mr. Moustache is getting screwed!
So, you didn't check?
Sir, I really insisted on going in.
But he said it wasn't needed
since the guy is one of us.
What is this, Das?
It's best for officers like you to
retire instead of causing us trouble!
If you can't get the basics down,
what's the point of your experience?!
Suspend him immediately
with a 3"b" charge!
Madam, I'll take the responsibility.
Who'll take the responsibility
for the child?
Madam, the child isn't here.
Is the mobile location accurate?
Okay, I'll call you back.
Madam...
Stephen's at St. Teresa's Church.
Das, it's New Year's night.
It'll be a big deal
if we show up in uniform.
So, change your clothes.
Sir.
Are you Stephen?
Yes.
Hey!
Don't let that car get away.
Okay, sir.
Be my soul running is coming this house
You get funny I know that about
Call me the front and
I know about this spot
Look at my heart like wow!
Be my soul running is coming this house
You get funny I know that about
Call me the front and
I know about this spot
Look at my heart like wow!
Gosh, it's you?
Of course!
AC Vaishnavi is here.
It's AC Shakthivel's special team, madam.
Hello, madam.
Send him with us.
What is it, madam?
Child missing case.
He's the prime suspect.
Hand him over.
At the Perambur Murphy incident site,
his number was seen
at the local range tower.
So, Shakthivel Sir asked for him.
I'll talk to him.
Hand him over, now.
I can't until he
gives the word, madam.
Sudhakar...
I need some details.
Okay, I'll share it now.
The number you're calling
is currently busy
He's not answering his phone.
Send him with us,
I'll handle it.
I'll get in trouble if I do that, madam.
Stop repeating yourself.
Are you sure?
Like I said, I'll handle everything.
Just let him come with us.
Please consider my situation, madam.
This is not my decision to make.
Do as I say.
Madam.
Seven years ago, he was
found guilty of the rape and murder of...
a girl named Dhanya.
Good evening, sir.
Sir?
Can't you follow an AC's order?
Will you only listen
if it's from Shakthivel?
No, sir.
Just do what she says!
Sure, sir.
Sorry, madam.
Where is Mithra?
I'm asking you,
where is Mithra?
How would I know?
Why are you asking me?
How did Mithra's toy's leash
end up on the dead dog?
Mmm?
Why did you kill your dog?
Look at me.
Look me in the eye!
What did you do to Mithra?
Sir!
SIR!
Sir!
Mithra...
My little darling
My heart's precious treasure
Mithra!
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
You came into this world
Just for me
Just for me!
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
My little darling
My love!
Aravind, pick him up.
Hey, I'm asking you.
Answer me!
Why did you do it?
Tell me!
Sir...
Hey.
Please sir.
Say something.
Tell me, now.
Sir...
I'm advocate Natraj.
Sir, what brings you here?
He's my junior.
What's the issue?
This is a case about
a four-year-old girl, Mithra.
Abduction and murder.
Oh.
Is there a prima facie case?
Yes, sir.
We found the leash of the
dead girl's toy on his dog's neck.
Oh.
The dog and...
the child were brutally murdered.
Did you recover the toy?
Not yet, sir.
It'll be done soon.
Uh...
Do you have anything
that can charge him?
Sir, he's a habitual offender.
Six years ago,
he was found guilty in a case
involving a 13-year-old like this one.
Wait a minute.
Das, can I get a coffee?
Sure, sir.
Brother.
Thanks!
Hey, come here.
Sit down.
Madam...
don't profile him.
That's different.
Let's discuss this case only.
Yeah, do that in court.
I wish!
If you had submitted a charge sheet
and brought him to the magistrate,
I would have done that.
Since this is an illegal detention,
I'm here now.
Sir...
you know the process.
Then how do you expect us to
get the truth?
If you want the truth,
you have to look for it.
And the search has to
start somewhere.
And it should move forward,
not go in circles.
Sir, what are you trying to say?
Are you backing what he did?
I'm telling you, he didn't.
Mmm.
Are you trying to free him
like you did...
in his last case?
I'm not here for that.
A guy gathered all the evidence
just like you did now.
I just took him to court and
built a case against him.
Okay, sir.
I'll file a charge sheet,
produce him in court.
You can do it there.
That should've been done...
before you brought him here.
Sir, he's committed a heinous crime.
I know how to handle situations like this
in this department.
Is there sugar in this? Thank you!
No, sir. Without sugar.
You see...
In an exam with
hundreds of thousands of competitors,
putting in long hours from
dawn to dusk every day,
achieving an all-India rank and
reaching this level is no easy feat.
Great of you!
But with just one court order,
I can have you stuck at home
doing nothing!
Threatening me?
No, madam.
I'm just sharing
what I usually do.
So just because he's your guy,
you're going to back him up
even if he killed a child?
What do you know about him?
I have a lot of respect for you, sir.
But do you really need to go to
these lengths for him?
Okay.
Let's do one thing.
Drop these
boring bits of evidence.
Bring me something solid
that points to him.
I'll have him at your door
in a minute.
Sir, we can't let him out,
no matter what you say.
Mmm.
Mmm.
The one I mentioned.
Got it?
Hello!
Yes, sir.
Sir...
Okay, sir.
Okay, sir.
Did you hit him?
No, no, sir.
Let's go.
4-year-old girl.
That's a pity.
It's a heinous crime.
Get the answers quickly.
If not for Kalidas,
Advocate Natraj had no way of
knowing where we were.
I can't rely on him
for this case anymore.
I've spoken to your AC Shakthivel.
From now on, you'll join me on this case
Okay, madam.
Don't stress about anyone.
Okay, madam.
I'll keep a close watch on him, madam.
Track Stephen continuously.
Okay, madam.
We have to get him this time.
Sure, madam.
Okay, I'll see you soon.
Alright, madam.
Madam, here's Mithra's
post-mortem report.
What's in it?
There's no mention of any abuse.
Only her body has been
severely impacted.
Besides that,
there's no sign of any sexual activity.
Also madam,
I have a request to ask.
I don't think Shakthivel's team needs to
get involved in Stephen's case.
They can't be trusted.
Who can you trust, anyway?
Madam, I know what you're thinking.
I never told Natarajan anything.
Please, leave it.
Sir!
Sorry, I have a throat infection.
That's what this syrup's for.
Don't you know about Natraj?
Sir...
Should we release a criminal
just for a lawyer's sake?
We let him go,
not because of Natarajan,
but for our department.
You know?
After we convicted him
for his previous case,
the media damaged our reputation.
Make the same mistake again,
and you know the consequences.
Thankfully, this hasn't
reached the media yet.
We can't afford any mistakes this time.
Be careful.
It'll all go smoothly, sir.
Sir, I have a request.
What is it?
I don't want Kalidas in this case, sir.
Why so?
Das, please step outside.
Okay, sir.
What's the problem?
I don't really trust him.
I feel like he'll distract me
in this case.
What do you know about him?
Sir, he's close with lawyer Natraj.
So?
I can't keep an eye on him
all the time.
You're not monitoring him.
I don't want your impulsive moves
complicating things.
That's why he's here,
to monitor you!
Only he knows the ground reality.
That's true. But--
Listen to me.
Get along.
Okay, sir.
So, Das,
you're running a cartel with
the DCP and the lawyer?
I'm asking this because
I truly don't get it.
Madam, our system's like that.
Mmm.
So, you're unaware he's a criminal?
It's not about our awareness.
It's about proving it to the system.
So your system cares about papers,
not right or wrong?
Right or wrong is subjective.
So the system doesn't care about it,
only the truth, madam.
What brings you here?
Sir, I need to tell you something.
A call would've sufficed.
I wanted to meet--
[phone rings]
Go ahead.
Yes.
Okay, okay.
Just stay calm.
I'm here and I'll handle it.
Okay!
Don't be scared, stay calm.
I'll handle it.
Don't hurry.
Okay.
What is it, madam?
All okay?
Sir...
I'm really afraid to stay
in my apartment.
One of the residents must have
done this.
I'm terrified for my daughter's safety.
Madam, I think you're
overthinking and worrying yourself.
I have a feeling you made a mistake
in Mithra's case.
You mean Stephen?
There's no need to be scared.
You can talk to us.
That night,
my daughter spotted Mithra
with Stephen,
with his dog.
Did she see Mithra with his dog,
or with Stephen?
She saw her with Stephen, sir.
Why didn't you mention this earlier?
I wanted to
Hello?
What?!
Oh no!
Madam, are you alright?
Madam, you come in alone.
Close the gate.
We can't let you in.
Another child is dead.
What do you say to that?
There's a psycho killer on the run.
Go catch him first, madam.
Sir, please don't just say things
that cause panic.
I don't want to argue with you.
We aren't letting you in.
Do whatever you want to!
Gokul...
please step outside.
No, that's not possible, sir.
I told him just to come out, that's all.
Come here, Gokul.
Gokul!
He just wants to talk.
I'll handle it.
Don't go, listen to me
Oh no!
What happened?
I don't know.
The child was drowning
in the swimming pool.
Didn't the kid know how to swim?
Yes, sir.
But I just don't get why
she came out alone now.
If you all don't let us take the body,
things are going to
get more complicated, Gokul.
Also, this could be linked to
Mithra's case.
Mom...
Mom!
What do you expect me to say?
The other parents are...
freaking out that their kid might
turn out like Mithra and Harshitha.
But, sir.
We have a monster among us.
I get it, Gokul.
Don't think I'm saying this
just to calm things down.
Once, I was at this stage too.
So I completely understand your pain.
I've lived it too.
Give me 24 hours.
I'll solve both cases and...
give you the answers.
Please, make them understand.
Okay, sir.
Thank you.
What did you tell him?
Madam, I asked him for 24 hours.
Who gave you the right to
ask for it?
Do we have another choice, madam?
Yes, madam.
Where are you?
Madam, I'm at Parangi Malai Jothi,
watching a movie.
What are you even doing?
Where is Stephen?
I am tracking him, madam.
He's here watching the movie.
Alright, I'll call you later.
Okay, madam.
Brutality lurking in the night
The Phantom sings a sound
A melody heard in the wind.
Come, let's go
Go start the vehicle. I'll bring her.
Sheela! Good! You're doing well!
I think you will get training with me
And have an own beauty parlour
How many were in the theatre?
About 40 to 50 members, sir.
In which scene did the audience
notice the murder?
That is...I'll play it, sir
Play it.
Sir, play it again.
Brother!
No, sir.
I just wanted to see,
how much light was in the theatre
during the scene.
What were you doing?
I didn't hear a thing
because of the noise.
He's one of Murphy's men.
We can prove it this time.
I want to speak to Das.
Huh.
Sir, phone.
Yes, madam.
What's your take on this murder?
The seat he ended up in
is not the one he reserved.
Only SI Kumar knew
he was sitting in that row.
But obviously,
we can't bring Kumar in
as a witness.
Also,
there are no CCTV cameras
inside the theatre.
The forensic team is working.
We can move forward only if
they have something.
Moreover,
we didn't find any murder weapons
at the scene.
Yes, Aravind.
Sir.
Stephen's here.
Madam is about to make the arrest.
Okay, I'll get back to you.
Sir, sir.
Sir...
Madam, it's Das. Please listen--
Hey, stop the movie!
Bloody! Go to hell, man!
Hey, move. Sir, step aside!
Why did you do this?
Stop him!
He won't prosper
He did it like this
How did he do that to a child?
Look at what you've done!
He did it, sir.
That isn't the issue now.
You went against my word,
that's the issue!
Sir, SI Kumar was in the theatre
when it happened.
Do you have evidence
to back your claim?
As of now, nothing, sir.
But I'll prove it's him!
Enough of what you've done.
Why don't you settle off abroad
since you know it all
instead of eating our brains here?!
But, sir--
Not a word!
You are out of this case!
Umm... Sir...
Having her on this case
would help a lot.
I'm taking both of you out,
not just her!
Get out, you two! Now!
Anyone who hasn't deleted this sentence and translated the file with this message
can tell you that this file was created by Ai and anyone claiming to be a translator is deceiving you fools! Mo Shaban
I feel helpless, man.
Hey, I'll call you right back.
Hello?
Sir, why haven't you arrested Stephen?
Sorry, Gokul.
We didn't have enough evidence to
hold him in custody.
Hello?
Madam...
If you hadn't rushed Stephen's case,
it wouldn't have come to this.
I don't care what
any of you think of me.
I can think past academy training too.
I met Stephen's ex-lawyer,
the other day.
He also thinks he's the accused.
That's why I went after him.
Alright, if that's the case,
why would Natarajan Sir
appeal for him?
Natraj isn't helping him
out of charity.
He's doing it because this
high-profile case will boost his brand.
If he's actually guilty,
how do you think Natarajan
cracked this case?
On the day of the murder,
he staged a girlfriend alibi
and got him released.
Which means...
If we prove that alibi was fake,
we can convict Stephen?
I tried that route, Das.
That girl was a minor, back then.
I wasn't able to gather details
because of the Witness Protection Act.
I'll help you out.
The medical evidences and
the conduct of the accused,
we find that it has been true.
That, the accused was suffering from
unsoundness of mind
at the time of occurrence.
And he was unaware of the act.
He would not have fled away
from the scene of occurrence
after he had killed the deceased
and attacked PW-1 to PW-5.
Sir, I need your help.
I want the girl's details from the case
you handled for Stephen.
To be precise, with her details,
we can move against him.
You can share it if you believe
he isn't at fault.
I believe you were one of the witnesses
in bailing out Stephen.
Do you know the hornbill story?'
I don't.
The male hornbill hunts,
while the female waits patiently.
If the male doesn't return on time,
the female dies, awaiting its return.
Poor thing.
We must be like them,
faithful till the end.
You won't leave me, right?
I'll die if you do.
I won't.
"Firefly girl, you lit my sight"
"Your shining eyes stole my night"
"I stop and stare
When you come around"
Your voice just lifts me
Off the ground!
Firefly girl, you lit my sight
Your shining eyes stole my night
Lost in your dreams, I float away
In every word you say, I sway
"I see a rainbow living in you"
I lose myself and feel so free
Let life soften
In the heat of your love
Let your love be enough
More than enough
Let love take flight, come what may
Stay by my side
Don't drift away
You're the flower
You're the cloud above
You're the flash I see
When I fall in love
You're the rhythm
You're the gentle draw
You're the force my heartbeat saw
In a world without you
Even my shadow can't survive
You are all I ever need
My heart won't ask for more
"Firefly girl, you lit my sight"
Your shining eyes stole my night
Don't leave him
Beat him
So you're saying...
Stephen was with you
when it happened.
You could've confessed at
Stephen's earlier case
and brought him out.
What happened then?
I was only 17, then.
I was under house arrest for a year
after my parents knew about it.
I didn't know what happened
to him after that.
What made you come later
and confess?
A person named Pandiya called me
and told me that Stephen is in jail.
He also introduced me
to Advocate Natraj.
What's wrong?
They're investigating her.
Anything urgent, Madam?
Wait your turn.
Pandiya...
Who's he?
Vaalinokkum Pandiya.
What?
So, you knew Stephen lived here?
I didn't.
Did he do it to get back at you,
through your daughter?
Get back at me?
Stephen isn't like that.
I know him well.
Did you two team up and...
do something?
Madam, mind your words!
I'm just saying it's possible.
People nowadays go so far
as to give away
their own child for others.
Stop spewing nonsense
because of your inefficiency!
We have to look at all angles, Gokul.
Sanju? Sanju!
I know my wife.
Now get out!
Sanju... Sanju...
Sir, if anything comes up,
we'll come to the station.
Please leave!
Sanju... Don't worry!
Madam...
Madam!
Was accusing her like that necessary?
When her child is the victim
and her boyfriend is the suspect,
how can I not connect the dots?
You believe her stories.
I want to meet that Pandiya.
Sure, Madam.
Oh, my!
What brings you here, Sir?
I could've come to see you instead.
Madam wanted to meet you.
I'm sorry I don't recognize her.
This is AC Vaishnavi.
Ah!
So, this is her!
My guys spoke highly of you.
How may I help?
I want to talk about Stephen.
Stephen?
Hey!
Is he Sagayam's brother-in-law?
Which one exactly?
What about him?
He studied real hard when in jail
and is now well settled.
Not on his own.
You and Natraj set him up well.
You'll find a huge flock of sheep
behind bars than in the real world.
If you follow the flock,
you'll end up slaughtered.
If they make a mistake,
they should be!
What do you mean?
You and Natraj teamed up to
bail out a child killer.
I'm talking about that.
We didn't do anything.
Your law proved him innocent
and gave him a job.
Pandiya, stop schooling me
and tell me what happened.
Then I'll decide whether it's true.
Pandiya?
Pandiya!
You're standing in a slaughterhouse
asking for stories?
Who are you to judge me, sir?
Pandiya...
Leave, now!
You've mistaken us.
It's not about trusting you.
We just need to know if Stephen,
the one you got out,
is the reason two kids died.
I've spent half my 45 years
going in and out of jail.
That has taught me something.
Your law can't always tell
guilt from innocence.
But I can.
We came here for nothing.
You call this a tour?
Little one?
Hey?
Water...
Water...
Go fast!
Beat him!
Thrash him!
Guys like you, who've got nobody,
always end up in trouble like this.
You aren't alone.
Keep your head down,
and they'll keep crushing you.
Rise above them,
and they'll bow like you're a god!
But things like power and position
aren't that easy to have.
So, study.
When decisions that need intelligence
are made with emotional discrimination,
shaped by the stories we've been told,
our society falls apart!
Stinks, right?
So you'll do whatever you want?
How will you console a mother
who's grieving her child?
But now, at least you can tell her
the two who did it are dead.
So you killed Mafi and Tamizh?
They've done enough to
earn a lot of enemies.
They should've been careful.
If they weren't,
then don't blame us.
I hope their mate, Jana,
is alright.
Why have you called Kumar?
You heard him.
I'm sure they'll go after the third guy.
What can Kumar do about it?
He won't do anything.
I'm setting this up.
It's not fair.
You're making a huge mistake.
Didn't you say that
the system's evidencebacked?
That's what I'm doing,
arranging for it.
Instead of circling around them,
I think we should interrogate it
from a different angle.
We're chucked from
the case, remember?
You can proceed with it,
if you'd like.
This is important to me.
I'll take care of this.
Everything's in place, right?
No screw-ups this time?
Yes, madam.
This is personal for me, Kumar.
Don't miss a single step.
We won't, madam.
The plan's rock solid.
We're definitely getting Stephen.
Are you at
the church to get Jana?
He didn't
go there on his own.
It's a setup,
they're trying to trap you.
You need to
get out of there, now.
My men are already there.
They'll take care of it.
Madam, it's Stephen.
Stephen, listen to me.
Stephen, stop.
Just listen.
Stephen, please.
Listen to me.
Why won't you
hear me out?
Stephen, stop.
Just hear me out.
Stop.
Listen to me, please.
Stephen, stop.
Listen to me, Stephen.
AC Vaishnavi set up
Jana's men to trap you.
I know.
You're in on it too, right?
No, Stephen.
I'm here to save you.
Those three
deserve to be punished...
but not by you.
Natarajan gave you
a second chance at life.
Don't throw it away.
Stop going after Jana.
Mithra came
to my place that day.
Did you come alone?
No, I came with him.
With him? What's his name?
Juno.
And your name?
Mithra.
That's a pretty name.
So why are you here?
To see a puppy.
I see. You like him?
Yeah.
I like him a lot.
Will you give him to me?
Will you give me Juno?
No.
Juno is lonely.
I need a puppy to be his friend.
Alright.
Here you go.
Bye, Mithra.
Bye.
Mithra.
Sanju, what's wrong?
Mithra's missing.
She's got to be around here.
Let's go look.
A kid named Mithra is missing.
We're looking for her.
Why didn't you say this earlier?
Did you ever let me explain?
You'd already made up your mind
before you even asked me.
Hello, sir.
Do you know who wore
the Hulk mask at the event?
No, sir. But the video from that day
could help.
Any idea who has the footage?
Hello, sir.
Did you get any leads?
We've got a footage, sir.
Go ahead.
Play it.
Skip ahead a bit.
Pause on the guy
in the Hulk mask.
Fast-forward a bit.
Hello, sir.
Is Doctor Prasanna in his apartment?
Yes, sir. He's there.
Alright.
Madam.
Das, I don't want to talk to you.
What have you done?
Madam, I didn't call about this.
Just hear me out.
Sir, Inspector Kalidas called.
He asked who was wearing
a Hulk mask at the event.
Then he called again,
asking if you were at home.
Is something wrong?
Sir...
Sir?
So Stephen's off your
suspect list now, madam?
I've cleared him
from Mithra's case.
But Murphy's case
is still on him.
I'm not letting him
off the hook.
We suspect foul play in
Dr. Prasanna's suicide.
What's your take?
No, madam.
He fell from a height.
It appears to be suicide.
Stephen, don't stay
in that house anymore.
It's dangerous.
Get out now.
What about Jana?
Do you know the
first part of Psalm 1:5?
Therefore the wicked...'
will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of
the righteous.
You understand the pain of a case
only when it's yours.
This is just your first case, madam.
You've got a lot more to witness.
But I didn't see this coming.
That night,
my daughter spotted Mithra
with Stephen,
with his dog.
Did she see Mithra with his dog,
or with Stephen?
She saw her with Stephen, sir.
who owns that dead dog?
So the dog's owner did
something to the child?
I have a feeling you made a mistake
in Mithra's case.
Das?!
Where are you?
The person you're trying
to reach isn't answering.
Why did you come here?
It's my father's house.
I rarely visit after my divorce.
I just want to know one thing.
That day at the Commissioner's office,
Why did you lie that your daughter saw
Mithra with Stephen?
If a few moments had gone differently,
life would be something else.
But life doesn't let us off that easily.
Sometimes we lie to
escape punishment.
But the real punishment...
doesn't come from others.
Should we click it from here?
Yeah, sure.
Zoom in a bit.
We'll take a selfie?
How is it?
Yeah, it looks good.
Look this way.
Someone's here. Let's go.
Don't look at him.
Just come with me.
Hi!
Hi, Brother.
Hey, I know you guys.
You're the ones who posted those
reels of my dog and went viral, right?
Why did you do it?
We found him cute.
Yeah, yeah... he's cute!
He is cute, isn't he?
Take him.
Take him.
Take him
Go on, take him.
Take him!
Take him, now!
Here. Take him.
Take him
Take him!
Hey, Ananya, what's wrong?
What happened?
Alright, get up.
I told you,
don't come up here by yourself.
Go home, now!
Where is he right now?
Aunty, this is his dog.
Aunty, don't do it!
Puppy!
Mithra!
Does your mom know?
No, aunty.
No one does.
But I'm scared.
Should we tell the police?
Hey, don't be scared.
I'll handle the cops.
I know I shouldn't have covered it up...
but I was worried about what people
would say about my daughter.
She saw her
with Stephen, sir.
Sir, Inspector Kalidas called.
He asked who was wearing
a Hulk mask at the event.
What have you done?
Stop talking. Just shut up!
The cops are here.
Let's go, madam.
One minute, sir.
I'll be back.
Madam!
Madam!
Madam!
What are you doing?
Madam...
What are you doing, madam?
Please don't do that, madam.
Open the door.
Please listen to me.
Madam, please listen.
Open the door, madam.
Madam, open the
Please open the door!
My little darling
My love!
Hello.
Sir...
Yes, Stephen?
Please don't cry, Achu.
Achu, don't run.
Hey!
Sorry, brother.
Sorry!
Achu, stop!
Achu, listen to me.
Don't cry.
I'm worried about my daughter.
Sometimes we lie to...
escape punishment.
This is his dog.
That night,
my daughter spotted Mithra
with Stephen,
with his dog.
Why is this dog with you?
Uncle gave it to me.
Ananya, where are you going?
What are you going to do?
Sister, careful with the dog.
It's mine.
Please don't do it.
Puppy!
Happy New Year!
Here, this is for you.
See you soon. Bye.
Don't cry.
It's okay. Don't cry!
Achu, listen to me.
Don't cry.
Just do what I say.
Can you get all the kids
in the apartment together?
Ananya!
Mom...
I did it by mistake, Mom
Oh no!
My dear...
"My little darling"
I didn't do it intentionally.
What have you done?
Mom!
Oh no!
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
Mithra!
Mithra!
I'm scared.
Should we tell the police?
Hey, don't be scared.
I'll handle the cops.
Yes.
Why aren't you listening, Mom?
Don't involve the police.
If you go on like this...
I'll kill myself.
I'll die.
Just stay calm.
I'm here and I'll handle it.
Mom...
What is it, madam? All okay?
Mom...
Brutality lurking in the night
What have you done?
After all this,
you're still pretending?
I won't spare you.
She might be a child,
but why are you in this?!
Parents like you ruin our society.
The cops are here.
Ananya...
Ananya!
Where is your mom?
She's in the garden.
She's inside.
In this place?
Mmm.
Where is she?
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
Brutality lurking in the night

The Phantom sings a sound

The good stay away from sin.
Even a little fault feels big to them.
Searching for truth...
brings many questions.
The right questions,
strip away everything built on lies.
But...
most people avoid the truth!
Because the journey is difficult.
People pursue their
own comfortable answers.
They don't realize how
it will affect their lives.
And they don't even care.
When decisions that need intelligence
are made with emotional discrimination,

Got it. I'll take it from here.

Sir!
Who do you think you are?

No, sir.
Why would you go alone?
What if he'd gone for your neck instead?
Sir, it was a critical situation.
So I had to.
Only a handful of officers do their job.
If something had happened to you,
where would we be?
Sorry, sir.
Hey, George.
When did you come?
Hello, sir.
I just got here.
Sit down.
Did you hear what he's done?
Sir.
He's always been a bit emotional.
Leaving the department, huh?
Finally going to enjoy
some peace and quiet?
At least you're letting me rest now.
We'll miss you, sir.
Okay.
Come

Sweetie,
Dad.
what are you doing here?
Dad, I saw a dog.

I was with Juno, Dad.

No... I'm a bad girl.
Shall we go see Mom?

Who found my soul?
Only my heart knew
How it bloomed!

Yes.

Brother, Murugan's men are inside to
finish you off!
Wait behind the courthouse.
I'll come.
Alright, I'll deal with it.
Sir, it's Pandiyan.
Who's in there?
Who the hell are you?
Leave me
Who the heck are you?
Come on
Come on.
Bring it on.
The water came up to here,
then pulled back.
The body was swept here.
It's confirmed.
This wasn't Murugan's gang.
Someone else led us away
and carried this out.
Hello.
Good morning, sir.
I'm one of Natarajan sir's junior.
Why are you calling so early?
I tried to reach you
yesterday, but I couldn't.
I need your signature
on Vidya Madam's
case documents for submission.
Meet me at the
Royapettah Mortuary by ten.
Sure, sir. I'll be there.
Your name?
I'm Stephen, sir.
Okay, Stephen.
Son, are you Stephen?
Come up this way.
His hands were tied.
But there are signs of struggle.
We didn't find any hair or
tissue under his nails.
Who are you?
Sir, he's with me.
He is Advocate Natarajan's junior.
You're here for a case study?
No, sir. He's here for
something personal of mine.
Okay. Is Sakthivel handling
the gang war cases?
We aren't sure if this is a gang war.
For now, it's under my jurisdiction.
However, a special team will take over.
And I'll be relieved if they do.
Did you bring the papers, Stephen?
Stephen.
Yes, sir!
Do you have the papers?
Yes, sir.
Okay, sir. Let me know when
the reports are ready.
I'll pick it up myself.
See you, sir.
See you then.
You seem familiar, Stephen.
Why are they all here?
Send them away!
Make them leave.
Everyone, leave now.
No one should be standing here.
Aravind, what's this?
Clear them out.
Sir, if you catch him,
bring him to me.
Don't register a case.
Hey!
You're talking to an officer!
What's wrong with
what he asked?
He died under your watch,
didn't he?
Watch your tone.
You were there too.
You watched it unfold.
And what did you do?
You tipped them, didn't you?
No, sir.
Your dear Brother's been
stitched up.
Take him and leave!
Clear the area.
No one stays here.
Go on.
Hey, take this.
The video has crossed 10K likes.
We're slaying, bro.
Harshitha, give me back my phone.
This is great!
Achu, don't run.
Hey...
Sorry, brother.
I'm sorry!
Hey, wait.
Where are you two headed?
Are you going to the terrace?
Mom, please.
How many times have I told you not to
go to the terrace alone?
Just for today.
Please, Mom.
What's this?
It's already late, and
everyone will be here.
Go get ready.
Okay, let's go.
Whenever we complain,
you say you have no money.
Then how could you afford
this stupid party?
Is this damn New Year's
party really necessary?!
Screw you guys!
It smells like dog in here.
If I allow this,
the association turns on me.
Hey, what is it?
Madam, madam, wait!
Why are you doing all this?
You should've just asked me.
Only if I ask?
You're okay, madam?
Mithra...
Huh?
I'm heading out.
Stay with Mom, okay?
Bye.
Bye.
Hello.
How did the event go?
It was great. You missed it.
What could I do?
A shoot came up out of nowhere!
Alright, what's Mithra doing?
She's here...
playing with the kids.
Okay. I just called to say that
I'll be home late.
Can you call me after you get home?
I'll hang up then. Bye.
Okay.
What happened?
I'll be back, Roopa.
Mithra...
Mithra...
Damn.
You better call Gokul.
Hello.
Mithra is missing, Gokul.
Hey, are you kidding?
She's missing.
Did you check the house?
I locked the door before I left.
I'm scared.
Okay, okay.
Search for her again.
I'll be there as soon as I can.
I'm coming.
Here are the child's details, sir.
Mithra. A three-and-a-half-year-old?
Yes, sir.
W4, right?
Hello, sir.
I'm Roopasundari.
This--
Happy New Year, sir.
What a way
for the year to start.
I'm the apartment secretary.
He's the security chief.
One second.
Happy New Year, dear.
I'm coming home late,
so go to bed.
I'm at an apartment,
investigating a case.
A child is missing.
Why are you panicking?
We'll talk in the morning.
Now go to bed.
Where are the child's parents?
They're over there.
How long has
the girl been missing?
Close to two hours now, sir.
We checked the CCTV thoroughly, sir.
Found nothing.
How many cameras are there?
Thirty-two in total, sir.
There must be around
350 flats here, right?
There are 568, sir.
Just 32 cameras for a place this big?
It's like a whole village
split into blocks.
Sir, let me bring them to you.
Please.
Thyagu.
Sir?
We don't have enough men.
Can you call for backup?
It's New Year's night...
Try calling.
Okay, sir.
Mithra.
She's three-and-a-half, right?
Don't worry, madam.
She's too young to stay awake.
She must be asleep somewhere.
Don't worry, we'll find her.
Did you check
your house thoroughly?
The party was here, so none
of us went home. We stayed back.
That's why.
When she wakes up and gets back,
there needs to be someone at home.
Go home.
Go with her, sir.
No, sir.
I'll wait here, sir.
Stay with her, sir.
We'll take care.
Madam.
Leave, Gokul. I'll be here.
Aravind.
Sir.
Check if there's a drainage
or a borewell nearby.
Okay, sir.
Sir, what are you saying?
Please don't panic, madam.
This is just a formality.
Can I get the residents' details?
Sure, sir.
Take the residents' details from her
and check all the bachelors staying here.
Yes, sir.
Call CCTV Rangan here.
Okay, sir.
Thank you, madam.
Sure, sir.
How many of you are here?
Four of us, sir.
I only see three of you.
Where's the other guy?
He's out of town, sir.
Where?
Namakkal.
You should've gotten married instead.
So only bachelors get questioned?
Not married men?
You think they're saints?
No man's a saint!
They get a free pass, just because
there's a woman at home watching them.
This house, right?
It's locked.
Let's come here later.
Brother!
You're living here?
Is this your place?
Yes, sir.
How come you're here?
A kid named Mithra
has gone missing.
We're searching for her.
Would you like to come in?
No need.
Can I get some water?
Who is he?
He's Advocate Natarajan's junior.
Here you go, sir.
Asked for water, and
you're offering juice?
Please have it, sir.
Give it to me.
Thanks, brother.
Okay, sir.
Have some.
I'm good.
Come on, have it.
He's proven he's one of us.
I asked for water,
but we got juice instead.
Okay.
Sir.
It's been so long,
and she's still not home.
Please, tell me.
She'll be safe, right?
Don't panic.
We'll find her definitely.
As if!
Please, Prasanna.
Madam, I know this guy.
He couldn't even track
what his wife did.
He's supposed to find our daughter?
Hello, sir.
Mind your words.
Brother!
That's too much...
It's alright.
This isn't new.
Just focus on the work.
Sir!
The kid's parents are anxious.
How can you be so calm?
Who are you, sir?
I'm Doctor Prasanna.
I'm Gokul's friend.
You claim to be a doctor
and say things like this?
When the family's waiting
nervously outside the operation theatre,
won't your stress add to it?
Please cooperate, sir.
That was a nice speech.
But only four of you are
taking care of this investigation.
We've called another team, sir.
Where?
When, sir?
Prasanna, they're doing their job.
Madam...
I know people.
I'll talk to the DC.
Else, nothing will get done.
Do you have a pet dog?
No, sir.
But she loves dogs.
Sir?
Sir, as expected, no team was available
on New Year's night.
What to do now, sir?
Okay, we'll handle it.
Okay, sir.
Honey, it's really late already.
Won't she be hungry?
Can you get all the kids
in the apartment together?
It's past midnight. Not sure
if the parents will be okay with that.
It's okay, madam.
Please make them understand.
Would they stay quiet
if it were their kids?
Sure, sir.
Where else?
I'm here, obviously.
I'm looking at a creature like you.
So you still haven't started?
I've been waiting for you so long!
Hello?
Vaishu?
Pay them.
It's from a known shop. It's fine, madam
Not happening.
Pay them.
Okay, madam.
What's not happening?
I was talking here.
You said you'd wait
for me for a lifetime.
You can't wait for 30 minutes?
I said it while I was in a certain mood.
What mood?
What mood, you ask?
I'll tell you in person.
Hold on.
Hello? Yes, sir.
Vaishnavi.
A child missing case.
Get to the spot immediately.
Yes, sir.
Kalidas is there.
He'll handle the case.
Just coordinate with him.
Okay, sir.
Okay.
Hello?
I think I'll be late--
So, you're not coming?
I knew it.
I knew this was coming.
I left it all
and waited here for you.
How can you be so selfish?
Don't you ever think about me?
You'll never understand.
I'm so sick of this.
Hey!
Where's the place?
It's nearby, madam.
Madam.
Where is Das?
He's upstairs, madam.
Who is she?
Assistant Commissioner Vaishnavi.
Oh.
She looks young.
She's an IPS, sir.
Madam.
I'm Doctor Prasanna.
I called the DC
and got you to come here.
Oh, that was you?
Instead of looking for the child,
he's wasting his time with the other kids.
Sir, we'll take care.
Will you please?
Who is Mithra's friend here?
[all] Me, uncle.
Me.
Nice.
You tell me.
When did you see Mithra last?
I saw her playing at the party.
Really?
Think again.
Was anyone there with her?
Uncle, Mithra was playing
with her father last.
Oh, nice. Okay.
Sir?
AC Vaishnavi is here.
So soon?
Madam!
Okay. If any of you spot Mithra,
tell him--
What's happening, Das?
I was enquiring these kids.
They might know about the missing child.
Send them home.
No, madam...
Check the time, Das!
They are sleepy.
Send them all.
Still looking at the
case as a disappearance?
That one, madam.
I was asking the kids about it.
Stop repeating the same thing!
Anything new?
Any breakthroughs yet?
Rangan is reviewing the CCTV.
There are just 32 cameras.
That's how many they've installed.
That leaves a lot of blind spots.
So we can't say for sure
if the kid left the apartment.
All the borewells, open wells, and drains
nearby have been thoroughly checked.
We have the bachelors' list and have
begun the initial investigation, madam.
You did everything
with just six people?
Yes, madam.
Please use your brain, Das.
Why didn't you call for a team?
So you wanted to crack the case yourself
and get praised, huh?
No, madam.
We did call for a backup.
They were unavailable
due to New Year's night.
You could've asked me!
Useless.
Sir?
Hello?
Good evening, sir.
Sir, we'll need backup
for the missing child case.
Shall I send a battalion?
How many of you does it take to
find a kid?
I said Das is handling it, didn't I?
Act like an IPS officer, alright?
Okay, sir.
Madam.
Are they sending a team?
Get a list of all the vendors
who came to the party.
Check all the vehicles that left
when the child went missing.
Sure, madam.
And delivery vehicles as well.
Inspect every nook and cranny
of this apartment.
And we need volunteers
from the apartment.
Why volunteers, madam?
It's been four hours
since the child went missing.
It's looking less and less
like a missing case.
Madam.
I strongly feel Mithra is
still in the apartment premises.
I suspect there's someone else
behind this.
Sir!
Yes.
Oh no!
Brother, did you find out
whose dog this is?
Sir!
Mithra's toy's leash, sir.
I want to see Mithra!
Check right away.
How did this end up here?
Oh God!
Make sure no residents
leave the apartment.
Okay, madam.
We might have the accused among them.
The apartment must be treated
as a fully confined zone.
Sure, madam.
Don't let the child's
parents go anywhere.
Else, the investigation
will get disturbed.
Okay, madam.
Also...
who owns that dead dog?
No idea, sir.
So why don't you share
the dog's photo on WhatsApp
and find the owner?
So the dog's owner did
something to the child?
That's possible.
We need a place to work.
You can use the clubhouse, madam.
Rangan, did you find anything?
Sir, there are so many blind spots.
I'm searching.
No luck.
Did anyone reply?
Not yet, madam.
Are there any dog lovers here?
I don't think so--
Sir, I know.
madam!
Bagavadhar.
A-702.
He knows everything
about every dog here.
Sir, I need information on
one of the dogs from our apartments.
I know nothing about
any dog from here.
Sir, a four-year-old is missing, sir.
Sir, can you tell me
about this dog, please?
It's a Tibetan Shih Tzu.
It's a cross breed.
Sir, do you know
who this dog belongs to?
I do!
Sir, the last time we checked,
this house was locked
Hey, Fault.
I said no crimes series, man!
Play some romance.
Check inside.
Sir.
House farming, huh?
Hey! Hey!
Happy New Year, bro!
Bro?
Where's the dog?
Hey, shut up.
Hey!
Where's the child?
A child?
We have to make one.
How dare you?
Hey, where is Mithra?
What the hell?
Who is Mithra?
How will I know?
Ask this guy.
He knows all area girls.
How dare you?
I saw you, my dear,
I forget myself here
Tell me.
Where's the child?
Answer me, damn it!
I don't know, sir
Get up, I say!
I don't have anything
Farming inside the house, is it?
Where's the kid?
Tell me!
I'm telling you
Madam, they seem to be useless.
Hey...
Shut up!
Das, get me a list of everyone
who owns this dog breed.
Check with veterinary doctors, kennels,
vet spas, and foster homes.
Sure, madam.
There are five veterinary hospitals,
six dog spas,
10 dog kennels
and six foster homes, sir.
Hey...
Just keep quiet.
Thiyagu, check these.
Okay, sir.
Sir...
Hold on.
HEY!
Will you ever listen?
Isn't this the dog that died?
Does this camera
have a front angle?
Check the fourth camera.
Hey, you!
HEY!
4-0-5, sir.
405 is also in the
bachelor list I gave you.
Brother, didn't you
check that house?
Tell me.
Sir, the thing is...
He is Advocate Natarajan sir's junior.
He lives there.
What?!
Mr. Moustache is getting screwed!
So, you didn't check?
Sir, I really insisted on going in.
But he said it wasn't needed
since the guy is one of us.
What is this, Das?
It's best for officers like you to
retire instead of causing us trouble!
If you can't get the basics down,
what's the point of your experience?!
Suspend him immediately
with a 3"b" charge!
Madam, I'll take the responsibility.
Who'll take the responsibility
for the child?
Madam, the child isn't here.
Is the mobile location accurate?
Okay, I'll call you back.
Madam...
Stephen's at St. Teresa's Church.
Das, it's New Year's night.
It'll be a big deal
if we show up in uniform.
So, change your clothes.
Sir.
Are you Stephen?
Yes.
Hey!
Don't let that car get away.
Okay, sir.
Be my soul running is coming this house
You get funny I know that about
Call me the front and
I know about this spot
Look at my heart like wow!
Be my soul running is coming this house
You get funny I know that about
Call me the front and
I know about this spot
Look at my heart like wow!
Gosh, it's you?
Of course!
AC Vaishnavi is here.
It's AC Shakthivel's special team, madam.
Hello, madam.
Send him with us.
What is it, madam?
Child missing case.
He's the prime suspect.
Hand him over.
At the Perambur Murphy incident site,
his number was seen
at the local range tower.
So, Shakthivel Sir asked for him.
I'll talk to him.
Hand him over, now.
I can't until he
gives the word, madam.
Sudhakar...
I need some details.
Okay, I'll share it now.
The number you're calling
is currently busy
He's not answering his phone.
Send him with us,
I'll handle it.
I'll get in trouble if I do that, madam.
Stop repeating yourself.
Are you sure?
Like I said, I'll handle everything.
Just let him come with us.
Please consider my situation, madam.
This is not my decision to make.
Do as I say.
Madam.
Seven years ago, he was
found guilty of the rape and murder of...
a girl named Dhanya.
Good evening, sir.
Sir?
Can't you follow an AC's order?
Will you only listen
if it's from Shakthivel?
No, sir.
Just do what she says!
Sure, sir.
Sorry, madam.
Where is Mithra?
I'm asking you,
where is Mithra?
How would I know?
Why are you asking me?
How did Mithra's toy's leash
end up on the dead dog?
Mmm?
Why did you kill your dog?
Look at me.
Look me in the eye!
What did you do to Mithra?
Sir!
SIR!
Sir!
Mithra...
My little darling
My heart's precious treasure
Mithra!
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
You came into this world
Just for me
Just for me!
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
My little darling
My love!
Aravind, pick him up.
Hey, I'm asking you.
Answer me!
Why did you do it?
Tell me!
Sir...
Hey.
Please sir.
Say something.
Tell me, now.
Sir...
I'm advocate Natraj.
Sir, what brings you here?
He's my junior.
What's the issue?
This is a case about
a four-year-old girl, Mithra.
Abduction and murder.
Oh.
Is there a prima facie case?
Yes, sir.
We found the leash of the
dead girl's toy on his dog's neck.
Oh.
The dog and...
the child were brutally murdered.
Did you recover the toy?
Not yet, sir.
It'll be done soon.
Uh...
Do you have anything
that can charge him?
Sir, he's a habitual offender.
Six years ago,
he was found guilty in a case
involving a 13-year-old like this one.
Wait a minute.
Das, can I get a coffee?
Sure, sir.
Brother.
Thanks!
Hey, come here.
Sit down.
Madam...
don't profile him.
That's different.
Let's discuss this case only.
Yeah, do that in court.
I wish!
If you had submitted a charge sheet
and brought him to the magistrate,
I would have done that.
Since this is an illegal detention,
I'm here now.
Sir...
you know the process.
Then how do you expect us to
get the truth?
If you want the truth,
you have to look for it.
And the search has to
start somewhere.
And it should move forward,
not go in circles.
Sir, what are you trying to say?
Are you backing what he did?
I'm telling you, he didn't.
Mmm.
Are you trying to free him
like you did...
in his last case?
I'm not here for that.
A guy gathered all the evidence
just like you did now.
I just took him to court and
built a case against him.
Okay, sir.
I'll file a charge sheet,
produce him in court.
You can do it there.
That should've been done...
before you brought him here.
Sir, he's committed a heinous crime.
I know how to handle situations like this
in this department.
Is there sugar in this? Thank you!
No, sir. Without sugar.
You see...
In an exam with
hundreds of thousands of competitors,
putting in long hours from
dawn to dusk every day,
achieving an all-India rank and
reaching this level is no easy feat.
Great of you!
But with just one court order,
I can have you stuck at home
doing nothing!
Threatening me?
No, madam.
I'm just sharing
what I usually do.
So just because he's your guy,
you're going to back him up
even if he killed a child?
What do you know about him?
I have a lot of respect for you, sir.
But do you really need to go to
these lengths for him?
Okay.
Let's do one thing.
Drop these
boring bits of evidence.
Bring me something solid
that points to him.
I'll have him at your door
in a minute.
Sir, we can't let him out,
no matter what you say.
Mmm.
Mmm.
The one I mentioned.
Got it?
Hello!
Yes, sir.
Sir...
Okay, sir.
Okay, sir.
Did you hit him?
No, no, sir.
Let's go.
4-year-old girl.
That's a pity.
It's a heinous crime.
Get the answers quickly.
If not for Kalidas,
Advocate Natraj had no way of
knowing where we were.
I can't rely on him
for this case anymore.
I've spoken to your AC Shakthivel.
From now on, you'll join me on this case
Okay, madam.
Don't stress about anyone.
Okay, madam.
I'll keep a close watch on him, madam.
Track Stephen continuously.
Okay, madam.
We have to get him this time.
Sure, madam.
Okay, I'll see you soon.
Alright, madam.
Madam, here's Mithra's
post-mortem report.
What's in it?
There's no mention of any abuse.
Only her body has been
severely impacted.
Besides that,
there's no sign of any sexual activity.
Also madam,
I have a request to ask.
I don't think Shakthivel's team needs to
get involved in Stephen's case.
They can't be trusted.
Who can you trust, anyway?
Madam, I know what you're thinking.
I never told Natarajan anything.
Please, leave it.
Sir!
Sorry, I have a throat infection.
That's what this syrup's for.
Don't you know about Natraj?
Sir...
Should we release a criminal
just for a lawyer's sake?
We let him go,
not because of Natarajan,
but for our department.
You know?
After we convicted him
for his previous case,
the media damaged our reputation.
Make the same mistake again,
and you know the consequences.
Thankfully, this hasn't
reached the media yet.
We can't afford any mistakes this time.
Be careful.
It'll all go smoothly, sir.
Sir, I have a request.
What is it?
I don't want Kalidas in this case, sir.
Why so?
Das, please step outside.
Okay, sir.
What's the problem?
I don't really trust him.
I feel like he'll distract me
in this case.
What do you know about him?
Sir, he's close with lawyer Natraj.
So?
I can't keep an eye on him
all the time.
You're not monitoring him.
I don't want your impulsive moves
complicating things.
That's why he's here,
to monitor you!
Only he knows the ground reality.
That's true. But--
Listen to me.
Get along.
Okay, sir.
So, Das,
you're running a cartel with
the DCP and the lawyer?
I'm asking this because
I truly don't get it.
Madam, our system's like that.
Mmm.
So, you're unaware he's a criminal?
It's not about our awareness.
It's about proving it to the system.
So your system cares about papers,
not right or wrong?
Right or wrong is subjective.
So the system doesn't care about it,
only the truth, madam.
What brings you here?
Sir, I need to tell you something.
A call would've sufficed.
I wanted to meet--
[phone rings]
Go ahead.
Yes.
Okay, okay.
Just stay calm.
I'm here and I'll handle it.
Okay!
Don't be scared, stay calm.
I'll handle it.
Don't hurry.
Okay.
What is it, madam?
All okay?
Sir...
I'm really afraid to stay
in my apartment.
One of the residents must have
done this.
I'm terrified for my daughter's safety.
Madam, I think you're
overthinking and worrying yourself.
I have a feeling you made a mistake
in Mithra's case.
You mean Stephen?
There's no need to be scared.
You can talk to us.
That night,
my daughter spotted Mithra
with Stephen,
with his dog.
Did she see Mithra with his dog,
or with Stephen?
She saw her with Stephen, sir.
Why didn't you mention this earlier?
I wanted to
Hello?
What?!
Oh no!
Madam, are you alright?
Madam, you come in alone.
Close the gate.
We can't let you in.
Another child is dead.
What do you say to that?
There's a psycho killer on the run.
Go catch him first, madam.
Sir, please don't just say things
that cause panic.
I don't want to argue with you.
We aren't letting you in.
Do whatever you want to!
Gokul...
please step outside.
No, that's not possible, sir.
I told him just to come out, that's all.
Come here, Gokul.
Gokul!
He just wants to talk.
I'll handle it.
Don't go, listen to me
Oh no!
What happened?
I don't know.
The child was drowning
in the swimming pool.
Didn't the kid know how to swim?
Yes, sir.
But I just don't get why
she came out alone now.
If you all don't let us take the body,
things are going to
get more complicated, Gokul.
Also, this could be linked to
Mithra's case.
Mom...
Mom!
What do you expect me to say?
The other parents are...
freaking out that their kid might
turn out like Mithra and Harshitha.
But, sir.
We have a monster among us.
I get it, Gokul.
Don't think I'm saying this
just to calm things down.
Once, I was at this stage too.
So I completely understand your pain.
I've lived it too.
Give me 24 hours.
I'll solve both cases and...
give you the answers.
Please, make them understand.
Okay, sir.
Thank you.
What did you tell him?
Madam, I asked him for 24 hours.
Who gave you the right to
ask for it?
Do we have another choice, madam?
Yes, madam.
Where are you?
Madam, I'm at Parangi Malai Jothi,
watching a movie.
What are you even doing?
Where is Stephen?
I am tracking him, madam.
He's here watching the movie.
Alright, I'll call you later.
Okay, madam.
Brutality lurking in the night
The Phantom sings a sound
A melody heard in the wind.
Come, let's go
Go start the vehicle. I'll bring her.
Sheela! Good! You're doing well!
I think you will get training with me
And have an own beauty parlour
How many were in the theatre?
About 40 to 50 members, sir.
In which scene did the audience
notice the murder?
That is...I'll play it, sir
Play it.
Sir, play it again.
Brother!
No, sir.
I just wanted to see,
how much light was in the theatre
during the scene.
What were you doing?
I didn't hear a thing
because of the noise.
He's one of Murphy's men.
We can prove it this time.
I want to speak to Das.
Huh.
Sir, phone.
Yes, madam.
What's your take on this murder?
The seat he ended up in
is not the one he reserved.
Only SI Kumar knew
he was sitting in that row.
But obviously,
we can't bring Kumar in
as a witness.
Also,
there are no CCTV cameras
inside the theatre.
The forensic team is working.
We can move forward only if
they have something.
Moreover,
we didn't find any murder weapons
at the scene.
Yes, Aravind.
Sir.
Stephen's here.
Madam is about to make the arrest.
Okay, I'll get back to you.
Sir, sir.
Sir...
Madam, it's Das. Please listen--
Hey, stop the movie!
Bloody! Go to hell, man!
Hey, move. Sir, step aside!
Why did you do this?
Stop him!
He won't prosper
He did it like this
How did he do that to a child?
Look at what you've done!
He did it, sir.
That isn't the issue now.
You went against my word,
that's the issue!
Sir, SI Kumar was in the theatre
when it happened.
Do you have evidence
to back your claim?
As of now, nothing, sir.
But I'll prove it's him!
Enough of what you've done.
Why don't you settle off abroad
since you know it all
instead of eating our brains here?!
But, sir--
Not a word!
You are out of this case!
Umm... Sir...
Having her on this case
would help a lot.
I'm taking both of you out,
not just her!
Get out, you two! Now!
Anyone who hasn't deleted this sentence and translated the file with this message
can tell you that this file was created by Ai and anyone claiming to be a translator is deceiving you fools! Mo Shaban
I feel helpless, man.
Hey, I'll call you right back.
Hello?
Sir, why haven't you arrested Stephen?
Sorry, Gokul.
We didn't have enough evidence to
hold him in custody.
Hello?
Madam...
If you hadn't rushed Stephen's case,
it wouldn't have come to this.
I don't care what
any of you think of me.
I can think past academy training too.
I met Stephen's ex-lawyer,
the other day.
He also thinks he's the accused.
That's why I went after him.
Alright, if that's the case,
why would Natarajan Sir
appeal for him?
Natraj isn't helping him
out of charity.
He's doing it because this
high-profile case will boost his brand.
If he's actually guilty,
how do you think Natarajan
cracked this case?
On the day of the murder,
he staged a girlfriend alibi
and got him released.
Which means...
If we prove that alibi was fake,
we can convict Stephen?
I tried that route, Das.
That girl was a minor, back then.
I wasn't able to gather details
because of the Witness Protection Act.
I'll help you out.
The medical evidences and
the conduct of the accused,
we find that it has been true.
That, the accused was suffering from
unsoundness of mind
at the time of occurrence.
And he was unaware of the act.
He would not have fled away
from the scene of occurrence
after he had killed the deceased
and attacked PW-1 to PW-5.
Sir, I need your help.
I want the girl's details from the case
you handled for Stephen.
To be precise, with her details,
we can move against him.
You can share it if you believe
he isn't at fault.
I believe you were one of the witnesses
in bailing out Stephen.
Do you know the hornbill story?'
I don't.
The male hornbill hunts,
while the female waits patiently.
If the male doesn't return on time,
the female dies, awaiting its return.
Poor thing.
We must be like them,
faithful till the end.
You won't leave me, right?
I'll die if you do.
I won't.
"Firefly girl, you lit my sight"
"Your shining eyes stole my night"
"I stop and stare
When you come around"
Your voice just lifts me
Off the ground!
Firefly girl, you lit my sight
Your shining eyes stole my night
Lost in your dreams, I float away
In every word you say, I sway
"I see a rainbow living in you"
I lose myself and feel so free
Let life soften
In the heat of your love
Let your love be enough
More than enough
Let love take flight, come what may
Stay by my side
Don't drift away
You're the flower
You're the cloud above
You're the flash I see
When I fall in love
You're the rhythm
You're the gentle draw
You're the force my heartbeat saw
In a world without you
Even my shadow can't survive
You are all I ever need
My heart won't ask for more
"Firefly girl, you lit my sight"
Your shining eyes stole my night
Don't leave him
Beat him
So you're saying...
Stephen was with you
when it happened.
You could've confessed at
Stephen's earlier case
and brought him out.
What happened then?
I was only 17, then.
I was under house arrest for a year
after my parents knew about it.
I didn't know what happened
to him after that.
What made you come later
and confess?
A person named Pandiya called me
and told me that Stephen is in jail.
He also introduced me
to Advocate Natraj.
What's wrong?
They're investigating her.
Anything urgent, Madam?
Wait your turn.
Pandiya...
Who's he?
Vaalinokkum Pandiya.
What?
So, you knew Stephen lived here?
I didn't.
Did he do it to get back at you,
through your daughter?
Get back at me?
Stephen isn't like that.
I know him well.
Did you two team up and...
do something?
Madam, mind your words!
I'm just saying it's possible.
People nowadays go so far
as to give away
their own child for others.
Stop spewing nonsense
because of your inefficiency!
We have to look at all angles, Gokul.
Sanju? Sanju!
I know my wife.
Now get out!
Sanju... Sanju...
Sir, if anything comes up,
we'll come to the station.
Please leave!
Sanju... Don't worry!
Madam...
Madam!
Was accusing her like that necessary?
When her child is the victim
and her boyfriend is the suspect,
how can I not connect the dots?
You believe her stories.
I want to meet that Pandiya.
Sure, Madam.
Oh, my!
What brings you here, Sir?
I could've come to see you instead.
Madam wanted to meet you.
I'm sorry I don't recognize her.
This is AC Vaishnavi.
Ah!
So, this is her!
My guys spoke highly of you.
How may I help?
I want to talk about Stephen.
Stephen?
Hey!
Is he Sagayam's brother-in-law?
Which one exactly?
What about him?
He studied real hard when in jail
and is now well settled.
Not on his own.
You and Natraj set him up well.
You'll find a huge flock of sheep
behind bars than in the real world.
If you follow the flock,
you'll end up slaughtered.
If they make a mistake,
they should be!
What do you mean?
You and Natraj teamed up to
bail out a child killer.
I'm talking about that.
We didn't do anything.
Your law proved him innocent
and gave him a job.
Pandiya, stop schooling me
and tell me what happened.
Then I'll decide whether it's true.
Pandiya?
Pandiya!
You're standing in a slaughterhouse
asking for stories?
Who are you to judge me, sir?
Pandiya...
Leave, now!
You've mistaken us.
It's not about trusting you.
We just need to know if Stephen,
the one you got out,
is the reason two kids died.
I've spent half my 45 years
going in and out of jail.
That has taught me something.
Your law can't always tell
guilt from innocence.
But I can.
We came here for nothing.
You call this a tour?
Little one?
Hey?
Water...
Water...
Go fast!
Beat him!
Thrash him!
Guys like you, who've got nobody,
always end up in trouble like this.
You aren't alone.
Keep your head down,
and they'll keep crushing you.
Rise above them,
and they'll bow like you're a god!
But things like power and position
aren't that easy to have.
So, study.
When decisions that need intelligence
are made with emotional discrimination,
shaped by the stories we've been told,
our society falls apart!
Stinks, right?
So you'll do whatever you want?
How will you console a mother
who's grieving her child?
But now, at least you can tell her
the two who did it are dead.
So you killed Mafi and Tamizh?
They've done enough to
earn a lot of enemies.
They should've been careful.
If they weren't,
then don't blame us.
I hope their mate, Jana,
is alright.
Why have you called Kumar?
You heard him.
I'm sure they'll go after the third guy.
What can Kumar do about it?
He won't do anything.
I'm setting this up.
It's not fair.
You're making a huge mistake.
Didn't you say that
the system's evidencebacked?
That's what I'm doing,
arranging for it.
Instead of circling around them,
I think we should interrogate it
from a different angle.
We're chucked from
the case, remember?
You can proceed with it,
if you'd like.
This is important to me.
I'll take care of this.
Everything's in place, right?
No screw-ups this time?
Yes, madam.
This is personal for me, Kumar.
Don't miss a single step.
We won't, madam.
The plan's rock solid.
We're definitely getting Stephen.
Are you at
the church to get Jana?
He didn't
go there on his own.
It's a setup,
they're trying to trap you.
You need to
get out of there, now.
My men are already there.
They'll take care of it.
Madam, it's Stephen.
Stephen, listen to me.
Stephen, stop.
Just listen.
Stephen, please.
Listen to me.
Why won't you
hear me out?
Stephen, stop.
Just hear me out.
Stop.
Listen to me, please.
Stephen, stop.
Listen to me, Stephen.
AC Vaishnavi set up
Jana's men to trap you.
I know.
You're in on it too, right?
No, Stephen.
I'm here to save you.
Those three
deserve to be punished...
but not by you.
Natarajan gave you
a second chance at life.
Don't throw it away.
Stop going after Jana.
Mithra came
to my place that day.
Did you come alone?
No, I came with him.
With him? What's his name?
Juno.
And your name?
Mithra.
That's a pretty name.
So why are you here?
To see a puppy.
I see. You like him?
Yeah.
I like him a lot.
Will you give him to me?
Will you give me Juno?
No.
Juno is lonely.
I need a puppy to be his friend.
Alright.
Here you go.
Bye, Mithra.
Bye.
Mithra.
Sanju, what's wrong?
Mithra's missing.
She's got to be around here.
Let's go look.
A kid named Mithra is missing.
We're looking for her.
Why didn't you say this earlier?
Did you ever let me explain?
You'd already made up your mind
before you even asked me.
Hello, sir.
Do you know who wore
the Hulk mask at the event?
No, sir. But the video from that day
could help.
Any idea who has the footage?
Hello, sir.
Did you get any leads?
We've got a footage, sir.
Go ahead.
Play it.
Skip ahead a bit.
Pause on the guy
in the Hulk mask.
Fast-forward a bit.
Hello, sir.
Is Doctor Prasanna in his apartment?
Yes, sir. He's there.
Alright.
Madam.
Das, I don't want to talk to you.
What have you done?
Madam, I didn't call about this.
Just hear me out.
Sir, Inspector Kalidas called.
He asked who was wearing
a Hulk mask at the event.
Then he called again,
asking if you were at home.
Is something wrong?
Sir...
Sir?
So Stephen's off your
suspect list now, madam?
I've cleared him
from Mithra's case.
But Murphy's case
is still on him.
I'm not letting him
off the hook.
We suspect foul play in
Dr. Prasanna's suicide.
What's your take?
No, madam.
He fell from a height.
It appears to be suicide.
Stephen, don't stay
in that house anymore.
It's dangerous.
Get out now.
What about Jana?
Do you know the
first part of Psalm 1:5?
Therefore the wicked...'
will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of
the righteous.
You understand the pain of a case
only when it's yours.
This is just your first case, madam.
You've got a lot more to witness.
But I didn't see this coming.
That night,
my daughter spotted Mithra
with Stephen,
with his dog.
Did she see Mithra with his dog,
or with Stephen?
She saw her with Stephen, sir.
who owns that dead dog?
So the dog's owner did
something to the child?
I have a feeling you made a mistake
in Mithra's case.
Das?!
Where are you?
The person you're trying
to reach isn't answering.
Why did you come here?
It's my father's house.
I rarely visit after my divorce.
I just want to know one thing.
That day at the Commissioner's office,
Why did you lie that your daughter saw
Mithra with Stephen?
If a few moments had gone differently,
life would be something else.
But life doesn't let us off that easily.
Sometimes we lie to
escape punishment.
But the real punishment...
doesn't come from others.
Should we click it from here?
Yeah, sure.
Zoom in a bit.
We'll take a selfie?
How is it?
Yeah, it looks good.
Look this way.
Someone's here. Let's go.
Don't look at him.
Just come with me.
Hi!
Hi, Brother.
Hey, I know you guys.
You're the ones who posted those
reels of my dog and went viral, right?
Why did you do it?
We found him cute.
Yeah, yeah... he's cute!
He is cute, isn't he?
Take him.
Take him.
Take him
Go on, take him.
Take him!
Take him, now!
Here. Take him.
Take him
Take him!
Hey, Ananya, what's wrong?
What happened?
Alright, get up.
I told you,
don't come up here by yourself.
Go home, now!
Where is he right now?
Aunty, this is his dog.
Aunty, don't do it!
Puppy!
Mithra!
Does your mom know?
No, aunty.
No one does.
But I'm scared.
Should we tell the police?
Hey, don't be scared.
I'll handle the cops.
I know I shouldn't have covered it up...
but I was worried about what people
would say about my daughter.
She saw her
with Stephen, sir.
Sir, Inspector Kalidas called.
He asked who was wearing
a Hulk mask at the event.
What have you done?
Stop talking. Just shut up!
The cops are here.
Let's go, madam.
One minute, sir.
I'll be back.
Madam!
Madam!
Madam!
What are you doing?
Madam...
What are you doing, madam?
Please don't do that, madam.
Open the door.
Please listen to me.
Madam, please listen.
Open the door, madam.
Madam, open the
Please open the door!
My little darling
My love!
Hello.
Sir...
Yes, Stephen?
Please don't cry, Achu.
Achu, don't run.
Hey!
Sorry, brother.
Sorry!
Achu, stop!
Achu, listen to me.
Don't cry.
I'm worried about my daughter.
Sometimes we lie to...
escape punishment.
This is his dog.
That night,
my daughter spotted Mithra
with Stephen,
with his dog.
Why is this dog with you?
Uncle gave it to me.
Ananya, where are you going?
What are you going to do?
Sister, careful with the dog.
It's mine.
Please don't do it.
Puppy!
Happy New Year!
Here, this is for you.
See you soon. Bye.
Don't cry.
It's okay. Don't cry!
Achu, listen to me.
Don't cry.
Just do what I say.
Can you get all the kids
in the apartment together?
Ananya!
Mom...
I did it by mistake, Mom
Oh no!
My dear...
"My little darling"
I didn't do it intentionally.
What have you done?
Mom!
Oh no!
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
Mithra!
Mithra!
I'm scared.
Should we tell the police?
Hey, don't be scared.
I'll handle the cops.
Yes.
Why aren't you listening, Mom?
Don't involve the police.
If you go on like this...
I'll kill myself.
I'll die.
Just stay calm.
I'm here and I'll handle it.
Mom...
What is it, madam? All okay?
Mom...
Brutality lurking in the night
What have you done?
After all this,
you're still pretending?
I won't spare you.
She might be a child,
but why are you in this?!
Parents like you ruin our society.
The cops are here.
Ananya...
Ananya!
Where is your mom?
She's in the garden.
She's inside.
In this place?
Mmm.
Where is she?
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
My little darling
My love!
My heart's precious treasure
Brutality lurking in the night
