Hello, is it 108?
- My name is Nandakumar.
Someone has met with an accident,
at Gandhinagar Road
by hitting the divider.
Please come immediately, sir.
[SANSKRIT CHANTS]
[SANSKRIT CHANTS]
Hey, are you joking?
Are you playing games?
Is this a joke?
I am a gazetted officer.
You called me here at night.
It's 9:00 a.m. now.
Where is CI? Call him.
Call him.
Why should I call him?
If you scream, he will come.
You stay quiet.
He is shouting unnecessarily.
Sir...
Mr Gowda,
this is not a grocery shop,
that you perform prayers
for a flourishing business.
This is a police station.
- Sir...
If you perform prayers daily,
our cells will be full. - Okay, sir.
Who is he? - Sir,
he brought me here last night.
He refuses to show any deference
towards me.
Why didn't you show
any respect to sir?
Sir, he tried to pick up a girl
from the bus stop last night.
He was caught red-handed.
Sir, I am a government employee.
They brought me here.
Are you married?
- Yes, sir.
My family lives in the village.
Couldn't you control yourself?
Sir, I am not a rapist.
Rapes have increased because people
don't have enough money.
Go after them, first.
You have more important cases.
Darn it. What is wrong with me?
I was frustrated and blabbered
nonsense to you. - No problem.
Tell me something...
How was the girl?
Oh...
Oh...
Was she beautiful?
She was chilled
orange juice that,
you want to drink in hot summer.
I wanted to impress her
But your constables brought me here.
To hell with them.
- Yes.
Put him in jail for three days.
Massage his entire body.
- Yes, sir.
Mr Gowda.
- Yes, sir.
We are getting unnecessary cases.
- Yes, sir.
Go pray to your God,
to give us a real case
to solve.
Sir, I have prayed to God.
He will give us a good case.
- Okay.
Oh.
What is it?
- Sir, I lost it.
What did you lose?
- You won't find it.
Then why do you want
to file a complaint?
Sir, I am not filing a complaint...
I just came here to inform you.
- You may leave now.
Sir, not you,
but I want to talk to sir.
You have informed us here,
that's enough.
Hey, stop. What is the matter?
You go, sir.
Where should I go?
- There.
Sir...
Sir, I can't find it.
Can you see it.
Sir, my shadow.
My shadow is missing.
My shadow, sir.
It is missing.
I can't find it since morning.
If I go out of the house
without a shadow,
people look at me suspiciously.
So, I came to inform you.
Mr Gowda!
Where is he?
Sir, look there.
He has lost his shadow.
Move two feet to the left.
Move two feet to the right.
Go two feet backwards.
What is your name?
CM.
CM? What does it mean?
Common man, sir.
What do you do?
Sir, I don't do anything in anger.
I think calmly about what to do.
What is your religion?
- Religion?
What does that mean?
I mean, are you a Gowda,
Lingayat, or Shetty?
There are casts.
What is your religion?
I belong to a common religion.
Sir, there are only two religions.
Rich people and common people.
I belong to common religion.
He is right.
Since when is your shadow missing?
Since morning, sir. - How did you
know you lost your shadow?
God told me.
- Hey!
Oh.
- God?
Yes, sir.
He visited me in my dream
this morning.
Which God?
Lord Ram, Jesus, or Allah?
None of them, sir.
Like the actor, Sudeep came on
the bike by swirling,
his key chain in the movie
'Mukunda Murari.'
He came to me like that and told me
'Does God come like that?'
Narsimha, I don't have a doubt.
This is a mental case.
Don't waste time.
Send him to the mental asylum.
Yes, sir.
'A man has filed a complaint stating
his shadow is missing.'
'He said that God came into his
dreams and informed him.'
'He says his name is CM,
that means, common man.'
'His real name is Vijay
According to the primary
investigation he was,
staying with his wife
in Vijayanagar.'
His shadow is missing?
How can it go missing?
- His shadow is missing?
How can a shadow go missing?
Shadow is missing?
It's impossible.
His shadow is missing?
Magic?
His shadow is missing?
Look, his shadow is missing.
'In the history of this world,
no one has heard that,'
somebody's shadow
has gone missing.
It has become
the topic for everyone.
'The police call
him as insane man.'
'This man named Vijay is at the
Vijayanagar Police Station.'
Sir...
Sir.
- Yes.
Shall I leave?
Wait, your wife is coming here.
Sir, I'm not married, how
can my wife come here?
Where did you come from?
- From the railway station.
Okay.
Did you sleep at the
railway station?
Sir, I don't know where I slept
But I was at the railway station
when I woke up.
Do you know who is the
captain of RCB team?
Yes, sir. It is Virat Kohli.
You know who the captain
of RCB team is,
but you don't know anything
about yourself?
Sir, why wouldn't I know
about myself? I'm CM.
Sir, shall I leave?
You don't have money,
how will you go?
Sir, I have money.
Where did you get it from?
I don't know, sir.
- Where are you going?
I don't know, sir.
No, I don't drink coffee or tea.
Take it back.
Hey, listen.
Get me water with three drops
of lemon juice. - Okay.
Hey, listen.
Add a drop of honey to it and
get it for me. - Okay.
I want a King Lights cigarette too.
Cigarette smoking is
injurious to health.
Sir, I feel nice.
Every puff gives me pleasure.
Yes, sir.
Hey, she is your wife.
Vijay... - Ma'am,
you shouldn't touch strangers.
Vijay, I am your wife.
He looks exactly like me.
It is not me.
Come on, Vijay.
Everything has a limit.
Precisely, my point.
Everything has a limit.
Go away.
- Gowda!
Yes, sir.
- Come here.
Sir?
Hey, let me go.
I won't stay quiet.
Sit down.
Sir, what does it mean if he
says his shadow is missing?
Isn't it strange?
Even I don't understand.
Does he have a problem?
No, he is perfectly alright.
What does he do? - He's a civil
engineer in Suhasini Builders.
And you? - I'm Ms Suhasini's
secretary.
So, you both are together
even at work?
Yes, we both are together
ever since we met.
So, yours is...
- Ours is a love marriage.
Nice.
If you don't mind
Can you tell me about your
courtship days, marriage
And your life, in brief?
If you can't, it's all right.
I was hoping to find a clue
regarding the case.
No problem, sir. I will tell you.
Our eyes met
We then started talking
to each other.
Hi.
- Hi.
Why are you worried?
I'm getting late for work,
the bus hasn't arrived yet.
I have a very important seminar.
- Oh.
Where is your office?
Rajajinagar.
- Oh.
I wish it was a bit further.
- Oh, God!
Bike?
Well...
Aren't you getting late for
the seminar? Come. - Yes.
Hop on.
We then became friends.
Stop! Back!
Back, I say!
Go back! Stop!
Stop!
Where is the letter? It's here.
Take it.
I have three more options.
Take a look at your
face in the mirror.
You are old fashioned.
She's beautiful. Take this.
How dare you slap me!
Do you know who I am? Come.
I won't spare you!
- Leave me!
Leave me!
Hero? Are you her hero?
Answer me!
I don't know whether I'm
a hero or a villain.
Then?
- I am a common man.
Then participate in the game show.
Let it be. Tell me what happened.
Respect.
I'll give you clarity.
I gave the letter to her, she swore
by me. I then gave it to her
She did the same.
I gave it to her
She slapped me.
Why did you slap me?
- For clarity.
Come.
- No, I won't.
Come.
Instead of giving the letter
to a beautiful girl first
You gave it to her after
they rejected you.
You should be killed.
He hit me, why are you waiting?
- Hey!
Stab him, don't spare him.
Hey!
Anyone can buy a knife if he
has ten rupees in his pocket,
but the courage to hold it
and to endure the pain,
when stabbed is not available
in any market.
It is an inherent quality.
Hey!
Stop dancing, get him.
Come here.
Come here, I won't do anything.
Come.
How dare you!
- The ear!
The ear!
The ear!
- Hey!
It's the ear;
I didn't say it's the nose.
Who is next?
- Come here.
Hello. Is it? I'll be there.
I'm coming.
- I paid five thousand rupees for each of them.
Come on. - Try to understand
his problem, come here.
Come.
Don't scream!
He has paid you,
you don't work sincerely.
That's very bad.
You must be sincere.
Get away! Rascals!
He is good for nothing.
Where did he go?
He's here.
- Five fighters are finished.
Yes. One, two, five. Correct.
- Please let me go.
Thanks.
- Don't mention it.
We could have complained
to the police.
Everyone has social
responsibility
But they don't fight. Because
when it's a holiday for them,
the court will be on holiday too.
- But you thrashed them so badly.
If people associated with
me are in trouble,
I won't spare those
who trouble them.
Clarity.
Brother! Sister!
Sister-in-law!
May you both get married soon.
All the best. My jeep is there.
Thank you. - Okay. Go.
We both got married in a temple.
And became a married couple.
We were happy for two years.
One day,
because of a small problem
We went to the hospital.
We learnt we can't have children.
We decided to adopt a kid.
So, cute.
She's cute, isn't she?
We are adopting a kid not to call
me 'aunt', but 'mother'.
We had an argument that day.
Vijay was upset and went out.
After a while, I convinced myself
And called to convince him too.
But he had left the phone at home.
I thought he might have gone
to his friend's house...
And would be back the next morning.
But he was in the news.
Sir, can I talk to Vijay once?
Go on.
He is relaxing.
Thank God.
Vijay.
- Yes.
Ma'am go away, I'm unable to smoke
my cigarette because of you.
Vijay...
Look at this. Aren't you able
to recall anything even,
after seeing this?
- I told you
I don't know who you are. Darn it!
She has done Photoshop, take a look.
Why are you doing this?
- Vijay,
it's my fault, I agree.
Oh, God! - Let's adopt the
kid of your choice.
Please Vijay, let's go home.
- Ma'am, stop troubling me.
I'm worried because
I have lost my shadow.
Sir, who is this lady?
Take her to a psychiatrist.
Me? Oh, God!
Vijay...
- I beg you. Go away.
Not I, she is mad.
Don't worry,
even this isn't a mental asylum.
You won't find the shadow
at any cost.
Let's have a casual talk.
I saw on Facebook just now.
It's trending on Twitter as well.
Thank you, doctor.
You won't find the shadow
at any cost.
That's not the matter.
Who's your favourite hero?
Challenging star Darshan.
Darshan?
- Yes.
Why?
- Because,
the characters he plays
are very challenging.
He likes challenges.
- Wow!
I see the same quality
in you as well.
Yes.
- Now, he is perfectly all right.
He is not playing any games.
- Oh.
But the shadow
Sir, I will take him home.
Someone must have cast an
evil spell on him.
I'll get him treated
by a sorcerer.
What rubbish?
Talk like an educated woman.
He will be safer with
us than with you.
The media won't leave him alone.
Do you want that to happen?
After the issues are solved...
I will send him home. Okay?
Why have you locked me up?
Release me!
Please!
- Darn it!
Giri!
Please release me!
Giri!
Yes, sir.
Did she eat anything?
She didn't drink even
a single drop of water.
No!
This is not fair, Giri.
She has to live for three more days.
Do we stop feeding
the sacrificial goat?
No, we don't.
She's like the goat for sacrifice.
Give her food.
- Okay, sir.
Force her to eat.
Okay, sir.
The shadow is missing?
Does a shadow go missing?
No, this is not fair.
It's not an ornament or a purse
to go missing.
He is up to something.
No, this is not fair.
Let's sort it out amongst ourselves.
Let's not involve the police.
Bring him out of the police
station immediately.
Sir, the shadow of the man...
Give me your shadow,
I'll give it to him.
Don't get irritated, sir.
Have you found any clue? - Do you want
to create controversy?
Sir, you want clues
And we want controversy.
You don't care about us; you want
the ratings to go up.
Sir...
- Look,
we haven't found any clue yet.
When I find one,
I'll conduct a press meet with you.
Okay? Thank you.
- Sir
Wonderful!
He's sleeping peacefully.
Gowda.
- Sir?
Shouldn't you have arranged
for a cooler,
or an air conditioner for him?
Sir, they say that if the person
sleeps well,
he dreams about God,
that's why I'm fanning.
Gowda, do you also believe
in such things?
Sir, don't we have faith
in all the Gods?
Let's show some faith in him too.
It's blind belief, Gowda.
Sir, we will have to believe
in certain blind beliefs.
You are great.
You are right, sir.
Wake him up!
Darn it!
Mister, wake up.
Hey! Wake up! Hopeless fellow!
God was about to tell me something
in the dream,
but you woke me up, Gowda.
Hey! Wake up!
- Good morning, sir.
Did you dream of God?
- Yes, sir.
Was He in a trouser and shirt
even today? - No, sir.
He had a Tamburi in his hand.
Hail, Narayana!
- Lord Narada?
He is very informative.
By the way, did he say anything
about the shadow?
He isn't a media person to talk about
the same topic time and again.
He told me something new today,
Gowda.
Is it?
Yes, sir.
- Tell me about it.
Sir, if someone has back pain,
he goes to the hospital.
- Yes.
But he asked me to complain to
the municipal corporation.
What? The municipal corporation?
Yes, sir.
Since everyone put up speed,
breakers in front of their homes,
So, he said,
'People get back pain due to the,'
number of speed breakers
in the city'.
He's right.
- Gowda
Please be quiet.
- Okay, sir.
Do we look like fools to you?
- Sir, if you yell at me,
I won't cooperate with you
during the investigation.
Don't say that. Be quiet.
- Okay.
Gowda...
- Let him continue
We may get a clue. Let him talk.
Continue. - Sir,
God said the bike accident that,
happened last week in
Gandhinagar,
is not an accident,
but a murder.
What?
He said it's not an accident,
it's a murder.
Hey! Stop there!
You are repeating the same thing.
- Sir
You are testing my patience.
Do I look like a fool to you?
I will kill you! Beware!
Take him away!
- Sir.
Come on.
Sir, no matter how much you try
to scare me indirectly
What I am saying is true.
I indeed dreamt of God.
It is also true that he said
the accident that happened,
in Gandhinagar is a murder
and not an accident.
Believe it or not.
'His name is trending in the state.'
'The man who filed a complaint
in Vijayanagar,'
police station that he
lost his shadow,
is creating a sensation
in the state.'
Tell me, lawyer sir.
Is it? Okay. I'll be there.
Okay, sir.
I'll be there, sir. Yes, sir.
What's that? - It's a bail to
get my husband released.
It's impossible.
Sitting here,
He has created a sensation
The media is mocking us.
If he is telling the truth,
there's a conspiracy behind it.
I won't release him until
the mystery is revealed.
Please leave.
- But sir, legally
I'm talking legally too.
If it's true that he is
mentally stable,
then why is he saying that
she is not his wife?
Then how can I send him with her?
You saw the chaos.
You may go now.
Ma'am!
- Are you blind?
Sir, has arrived, move aside.
Sir!
Even I don't understand
with what intention,
he is doing all this, sir.
If you permit me
I'll deal with him in my style
and bring out the truth.
No, don't complicate the issue.
Actually, the media focus
is completely on us.
The pressure is increasing
day by day.
I'll talk to the inspector in
Gandhinagar and send the file.
Re-open the case and conduct
an investigation.
Okay, sir.
Manage the media, somehow.
- Sure, sir.
Sir...
We are re-opening the case.
If what he says is true,
we will investigate the case.
Look, don't complicate the issue
with your speculations.
Just give me two weeks and I'll
give you all the details.
'Inspector Narasimha has
re-opened the case.'
'We must wait and watch as to what
turn this case takes.'
Sir, if he is telling the truth...
'We will investigate the case.'
'Look, don't complicate the issue
with your speculations.'
It looks like the police are
treating him well.
He has settled in the police
station itself.
Friendship with the police
is neither good for him,
nor for us.
Why is he re-opening the case?
No, this is not fair.
I am giving you the last chance
Tell him whatever you want.
I want him released at once.
That's it!
Sir!
Sir...
Sir.
- Yes.
The Tirupathi case file.
'A person named Tirupathi,
died in an accident on DG Street,
in Gandhinagar.'
'The reason being, he was driving
rashly without a helmet'
He hit a speed
breaker and died.'
'He died after suffering
severe head injuries.'
It's not an accident, sir.
It's a murder.
Have you lost your mind?
From the eyewitness who saw the
accident live, and called 108
To the post-mortem,
everything is clear.
He died after hitting his head
against the footpath.
He didn't die hitting his head
against the footpath.
They used a water bottle
to kill him.
Water bottle?
Where is the water bottle?
This one? This water bottle?
A water bottle like this?
Was he killed with a water
bottle like this?
Was he killed with a water
bottle like this?
No, sir.
They killed him with a water bottle
filled with frozen water.
Then what does the file say?
Do you know what the file says?
The reports in the file clearly
say that it was an accident.
You are trying to fool me?
How dare you tell lies!
Are you trying to fool me?
I said it's a murder, not an
accident. It's murder!
You can solve any case
with proper investigation.
Take a look at the pictures in
the file, you will find the clue.
You will see a bottle next to
the body of the deceased.
Take a look.
Send me a tea. Please don't
disturb me for some time.
Giri..
The story had to end happily
in three days.
He wants to give an anti-
climax to it.
I told you earlier
'No, this is not fair'.
Let her go.
You get him out of the station.
Go!
- Okay, sir.
Come, sit here.
Take this.
Vijay, what else did God tell you?
What will he say? - He asked me to
tell you to remove the parking,
board in front of bars and pubs.
Why? - A drunkard would come by
auto, cab, or walk and drink.
What will happen?
There won't be any drink and
drive problem or accidents.
You are right.
- Yes.
Yes.
'I have to believe him
because God told him.'
Gowda!
- Sir...
Come here!
- I am coming, sir.
Tell me, the Gandhinagar accident
case that was closed
Why did you get it re-opened?
Tell me!
How many people should I answer?
I'm telling you,
God came into my dreams and told me.
We aren't the police to believe
what you say.
We are hooligans. Tell me the truth.
If not, God won't come
in your dreams.
I will send you to God.
Sir, I am telling you the truth.
You!
Hello, sir.
- 'Where are you?'
I'm in the factory. - The one who
said, 'no, this isn't fair.'
Not God or council
Make him reveal everything.
Sir, I'm questioning him,
but he isn't answering.
Beat him in your style.
Make him reveal the truth.
If he doesn't speak
Tell him, 'this is not fair'.
Then kill him.
- Okay, sir.
Boss, who was it?
Who?
The one who spoke to you on
the phone. Who was he?
Hey, you have to answer us.
I will make you reveal everything.
But...
You act very well.
Not just acting,
I can do action too!
Is it?
Hey.
- Boss?
Do you know who he was?
Hey!
If he says, only he will die,
If not, you, you, you!
You all will die.
Boss, tell me who he was
or take me to him.
Please tell me.
- I won't tell you.
I will kill you! Kill him!
I'm already dead,
how can you kill me again!
Will you kill me!
Do you know who I am? I'm Tirupathi!
Hey!
I'm the same Tirupathi
whom you killed.
Do you want to see?
Tell me who killed me! Tell me!
Who spoke to you on the phone?
Who sent you to kill me?
Is anyone here?
'I never thought my life
would turn out like this.'
'Things were so smooth.'
'I have a good husband and
two cute children.'
'But tobacco ruined everything.'
'They had to cut off the spreading
cancer from my mouth.'
'Nothing will ever
be the same again.'
'Tobacco ruined my life.'
'Khaini, gutkha, tobacco, pan
masala will ruin your life.'
'Sometimes I think about
the consequences of smoking.'
'I might suffer from a stroke
and leave my family.'
'I might suffer from lung
cancer or mouth cancer.'
'Heart disease or emphysema.'
'The next time you take out
a 'beedi' or cigarette to smoke'
Ask yourself what the
consequences will be.'
'Stop smoking today.'
'You can call 1800-112356 for help.'
'You can give a missed
call at 0112290170.'
Sir...
When I came out of the station,
CM escaped.
I followed him and reached here.
Hey!
Will you see?
Sir, CM is possessed
by Tirupathi's soul.
Believe me, sir.
Now, he's talking about a ghost
instead of God? - Sir.
I swear, sir.
- Hey!
Shut up.
Mr Narsimha.
- Yes, sir.
Send his picture to all
the police stations.
Alert everyone in the city.
Within an hour, he should be
in our custody. - Yes.
He shouldn't be questioned by media.
- Yes, sir.
He killed...
He killed my man!
He has complicated it so much.
I won't spare him!
Before the police,
we should find him.
Find him! Go!
No matter who made the mistake,
even God can't escape from me.
He is a kid for me.
Gowda.
- Yes, sir.
What is wrong with our people?
Sir? - You see on social
media or TV channels,
strangers are discussing
about this case.
Sir, it's true. - We Indians have
more interest in peeping,
inside our neighbour's house
than our own.
You are right.
Tell me something
Everyone in the city is
talking about it.
No one from Tirupathi's family...
There's not a single
response from them.
Sir, even I don't understand.
If you investigate in my way,
it isn't difficult to catch them.
- You are right, sir.
Sir, I think there is no one here.
Are you from the same area?
Yes, sir.
- What?
Yes, sir.
Is this Tirupathi and Sita's
house? - Yes, sir.
Where is Sita?
She's missing since
her husband died.
Sir, I saw her taking her
child to the school.
I didn't see her after that.
She used to share her
problems with me.
Since her husband died,
she stopped talking.
Even I didn't try talking to
her as she must be depressed.
Her house is locked for
the past three days.
We assumed she must have gone
to visit a relative.
Sir, I had some work.
I called her,
but her number is switched off.
Like you know,
did she have any relatives?
Sir, they were both orphans.
Do you have any more information about
them? - I don't know, sir.
In the serial named
'Kartika Deepa',
If Kamakshi's husband is
suffering from cancer
You don't feed your husband
who's back from office,
and cry while watching TV.
Your neighbour's husband is dead
She hasn't come home
for three days
Her phone is switched off
Don't you have the sense to
inform the police?
Sir, what can we do
if they go missing?
It is because of irresponsible
citizens like you,
that the crime rate in the city
has gone up.
What if you had faced
the same problem?
What would if your
daughter or son,
had not come home
from the college?
You would have come to the police
station ten times.
Had we come to you,
you would have harassed us.
You would call your relatives
a hundred times
And ask them about your son
or daughter's whereabouts.
Your neighbour was in trouble
But you dont care for others!
Shame on you!
I don't know when you will reform.
Does anyone know which school
her child studied in?
Is she the class teacher?
- Yes, sir.
Greetings, sir.
- Greetings.
What happened that day?
Sir, she dropped her child here
at 8:00 a.m. that day.
I think, around 12 o'clock,
her uncle picked her up.
Uncle?
I heard they didn't
have any relatives.
Have you ever seen Vicky
dropping or picking,
up the kid from
the school earlier?
No, sir. - Then how could you
send the kid with a stranger?
We have to teach the teachers.
Don't you have any responsibility?
We have to take up all the
responsibility, right?
Show me the CCTV footage.
Open camera one.
Camera two.
Camera four.
Stop.
Rewind.
Bloody. It is him.
Hello? - Sir, Vijay has come
to the police station.
What?
- We have rounded him up at gunpoint.
Is it? You stay there; I'll come.
- Okay, sir.
If I pump all the bullets
in the gun in your head,
your brains will explode!
Where is Tirupathi's wife?
What did you do with Tirupathi's
daughter?
What did you do with Tirupathi's
daughter?
Sir, how can I harm my daughter?
Sir, how can I harm my daughter?
What do I do? Do you know who I am?
Do you want to see?
Do you want to see!
Then look!
Tirupathi has possessed...
Vijay's body, sir.
My name is Tirupathi, sir.
I am an orphan.
I always felt bad as
I didn't have anyone.
After Sita came into my life,
we were very happy.
We both got married and
started a family.
I used to work in
D-Mart as a manager.
We were living a happy
and satisfying life.
We didn't know how parents were,
but we heard someone calling
us 'mom' and 'dad'.
She is my daughter.
I was happy that she
was not an orphan.
We thought we will always be happy.
We were living happily.
But...
But one day...
Hello, excuse me.
I don't know why they killed me.
Before the world found
out why I died,
they closed the case
as accident case.
I won't get back my life.
Sir
I saw my wife being kidnapped,
on her way back home after
dropping our daughter.
I couldn't do anything.
So, I decided to save my
wife and daughter,
who I love the most.
I wanted a body.
So, I entered inside him.
I grabbed everyone's attention
By saying my shadow is missing.
I made you re-open the case saying
God comes into my dreams.
I picked up my daughter from
school and dropped,
her to the orphanage
where I grew up.
But...
I couldn't find my wife.
Gowda.
- Sir.
Oh, no.
Ma'am,
your husband is possessed.
My husband didn't leave me
alone even for a moment.
He is does not recognize me now.
I told you something has happened.
I begged you to send
my husband with me.
No one understood me.
You arrested a man who
came here to file a case.
I can't bear it.
I'll take my husband with me.
No, I can't.
He is possessed.
He has committed a murder.
We haven't proved it according
to the law.
Physically, he is a murderer.
So, we will file a charge sheet,
and investigate the case.
Until then we can't release him.
Sir, I don't know.
My husband hasn't committed
the murder.
You know what condition he is in.
Everyone says he has lost his mind.
Please release him.
I will get him treated.
Please sir...
Please try to understand.
Gowda.
- Yes, sir.
Ma'am.
The situation has gone out of
control. Please calm down.
Your husband will come home happily
once the case gets over.
Please come... Come.
Keshav!
Sir?
Did you find the details
of the vehicle,
of the person who was kidnapped?
Sir, they used a fake number.
They used the DCP's daughter's
car number...
And have diverted us.
- Oh, no!
Go call Gowda.
- Okay, sir.
Sir? - Did you get the call
data of deceased Giri?
Sir, I have it.
Before he died,
he received ten to fifteen calls
from the same number.
He received a call from the same
number the day he died.
The last call was made from
a private number.
We are tracing it, sir.
Did you find out from which number
did he receive the ten calls?
9550011478, sir.
9550011478...
'Sir, my name is Nandakumar.'
'Someone has met with an
accident at Gandhi,'
Nagar Road by hitting the divider.'
Sir, I called this number,
it's switched off.
I think he may not have
charged his phone.
We will charge him. Get him here.
Okay, sir.
Gowda, it is getting hotter.
We will finish the work
soon and leave.
Sir...
Do you know him?
Giri.
He is a real estate broker.
Is he your friend?
- No.
Then why did you call
him fifteen times in a day?
Sir, I do the same business.
I called him for
a land deal.
Do you know, he is dead?
Sir, I was going to his house
with this garland.
You brought me here.
He spoke to you one hour
before he died. - Sir.
Even my grandpa had spoken to me on
phone one hour before he died.
Will you arrest me for that too?
Sir.
- Nice joke!
Will you repeat it once again?
Please...
Do I look like a joker
to you?
I liked your timing.
Gowda, put that garland
around his neck.
Sir...
People put garland on a corpse
But you are wearing it
when alive.
Happy journey.
Gowda, you are superb. You're in
full form. - Thank you, sir.
Ask him the last question
Until then, I'll make the necessary
arrangement. - Okay, sir.
Do you know what sir is doing?
He's removing bullets from the gun.
- Good.
You called the ambulance and
informed them about the accident.
Sir, the accident
took place before me.
As a responsible citizen,
is it wrong to call the ambulance?
- Yes, it's wrong.
What is wrong?
Why did I see it, or why did I call?
Do you know what sir is doing now?
He is loading the gun.
Do you know what it means?
He took out the bullets from the gun
and now he's loading it again.
What is there to understand?
Kid, I think you don't
understand the matter.
The bullet that he removed
from the gun,
was a service bullet.
The bullet that he's loading now,
is a private bullet.
He need not give an explanation
for firing the private bullet.
With unaccountable bullets,
He has shot many people who
didn't answer him properly.
Don't you trust me?
You can ask the trees around you.
Every tree will tell you,
about our sir's character.
Sir, doesn't think,
he simply shoots.
Tell him whatever you know.
Sir...
- I will shoot you here.
You will die instantly.
- Sir...
Reality or Karma,
it will become clear.
You have made karma lose control.
If not
You will hang like a ghost
in one of the trees.
Decide, do you wish to talk or die?
- No, sir.
I will tell you.
I will tell, sir.
'I came to Bangalore for a living.'
'We both were like birds
of the same tree.'
'Name of the tree was
'Suhasini Builders'.'
'Janardhan, sir, was the chairman
of Bangalore,'
'City Construction Association.'
'Janardhan sir's wife's
name was Suhasini.'
'Janardhan sir's right
hand was Arjun.'
'He was his legal advisor too.'
'I was Arjun's PA.'
'Suhasini madam's PA was Maya.'
'Maya's husband is Vijay,
a civil engineer.'
'Since the children were
settled in the US.'
Ma'am was very attached to Maya.'
'So, they got a few illegal properties
registered in Maya's name.'
'Suhasini ma'am wished
to go to America'
And settle with her children.'
'But, Janardhan sir, didn't
wish to leave India,'
So, she stayed back for
her husband.'
'But one fine day, Janardhan sir
suffered a heart attack and died.'
'Suhasini ma'am was depressed.
'She asked us to dispose of her
wealth and left for the US.'
'We were so smart that we could
make the sun wear sunglasses.'
'Everyone planned to encash
Suhasini ma'am
'Who was sentimentally
weak and depressed.'
There was a saying back
then stating...
'If you want to live happily,
You have to work hard'.
If we take a small risk
We can become billionaires
one day
We have an opportunity.
Opportunity is like a lamp
that lights in the dark.
Everyone holds the lamp
and finds a way.
Even we did the same.
Taking the lamp in ones
hands, and walking,
without fearing the darkness,
is the quality of a smart man.
Yes, I agree.
What is the opportunity?
There are five hundred crores worth of illegal
property in my wife Maya's name.
You have the documents with you.
Before ma'am comes to India and
disposes that property
We have to get it encashed.
That is cheating.
If you think it's cheating,
it'll be.
It is very common.
When God cheated,
after all, we are humans.
Ma'am has property worth billions.
She won't get depressed if
she loses a mere five hundred crores.
But if we hit once,
we can settle down.
Think about it.
Sounds like a plan, but how?
We will kill Maya.
Just kidding.
I mean, we will show in the
records that she is dead.
How?
We will find another girl who
has features of Maya.
Same blood group,
same height, etc..
She will die. Simple.
I have already found a girl.
I have found a family.
The husband and wife are orphans.
If something happens,
no one will question.
They have a small kid.
If we kill the wife,
the husband may create a problem.
So, we will kill the husband first,
and pass it off as an accident.
Then, we will kill the wife.
Didn't you understand?
We will first take Maya's signature
and sell the properties.
We will take the cash.
Then Maya will make
a video stating,
she is depressed
because of personal,
problems and torch herself.
We will torch that woman
in Maya's place...
And create evidence
of Maya's death.
I will manage the forensic report.
Everyone will believe Maya died.
Sushasini ma'am too...
Maya will fly to Mumbai.
What will you do if ma'am
asks for the documents?
I'll tell her that I handed them
to Janardhan, sir, long ago.
Maya died. No one knows where
the documents are.
Ma'am will cash the other properties
and go back to the US.
Done.
According to the plan,
we killed Tirupathi.
According to the plan,
we kidnapped Tirupathi's wife, Sita.
Let me go!
Why did you kidnap me?
Open the door!
- Darn it!
It was his plan,
but he went to the police station,
and filed a complaint stating
his shadow is missing.
Because of his new sketch,
our plan had to change.
Get him out of the station.
I had gone to the police station.
CI isn't getting convinced.
I will take the lawyer with me next.
Gowda.
- Sir.
Get the car.
Sir, the police arrested Nanda.
Search everywhere.
Hello.
What?
Is it?
Okay.
What is it? - Sir,
I got a call from the station.
Maya escaped.
Maya escaped?
- Yes, sir.
She escaped?
- Yes, sir.
Maya escaped already?
- Yes.
Lady Maya escaped...
Lady Maya escaped.
Maya, you played a nice drama.
Sir...
'My husband didn't leave me
alone even for a moment.'
'He doesnt even recognize me now.'
'I had told you he is possessed.'
'Sir, I begged you to
send my husband with me.'
'I will get him examined by a good
psychiatrist and get him cured.'
'Sir, you didn't let him go.'
'Sir, you have arrested
a man who came,'
here to file a case. Release him.'
'Please sir, release him.'
'Please sir, release him.'
Oh, wow!
She acted better than the
heroines and fooled us.
Gowda.
- Yes, sir.
We will call her,
and felicitate her for this
in unique way. - Yes, sir.
We have to give her many bouquets.
- Yes, sir.
What?
- Yes, sir.
We shouldn't spare her.
- Yes, sir.
We must felicitate her.
- Yes, sir.
We both should felicitate her.
- Yes, sir.
What say?
- Yes, sir.
She has outsmarted us.
Get him.
- Come on.
Come on.
Come on!
Do you know who killed you?
I know.
He killed me.
I knew it before.
You said your shadow was missing.
You got the case re-opened.
Even after knowing who killed you,
why did you do this drama?
Sir, if I do it,
you call it drama.
Had a VIP had done the same,
you would term it strange.
The police and media are more
concerned about,
VIP problems than a common man's.
You want an important case
The media want sensational news.
Who will understand a
common man's problem?
Sir, they murdered me.
The police didn't enquire
about the case and,
closed it by calling
it an accident.
Had a celebrity been murdered
You would have enquired
And the media would telecast the news
from morning to evening.
Sir, I didn't want my death to
be limited to your table.
I wanted everyone to know.
So, I drew everyone's
attention towards me.
So, many police officers
are investigating
my case today.
Even the media is competing
to cover it.
Sir, a common man, can't
be calm all the time.
If he goes out of control,
He will stab everyone like a knife.
Sir, on TV,
a lion is chasing a deer.
You change the channel
thinking it's common.
But if the deer,
attacks the lion
Everyone watches in amazement.
A common man is like the deer.
Tell me something
Why did you come into his body?
Sir, I don't have any relatives.
The one who killed me,
kidnapped my wife.
So, I possessed his body.
I took him in my control.
If he is safe, my wife will be safe.
Sir, I'll stay at the station
until the case gets closed.
Until I am in the station,
there will be sensation
in the media.
Everyone behind it will come out.
The four people he killed,
it was I who killed them!
I will kill him too.
I will save my wife
Kill him and everyone
in the gang. - Hey
Your wife is with them.
If you do something in haste,
her life will be in danger.
Please, listen to me.
I will save your wife.
Okay?
- I don't trust anyone, sir.
Hey, come on.
Hey, are you doing drama?
What have you and your
husband planned?
I was on my own,
you involved me in this.
You changed me,
and made me hide from everyone.
I won't spare you!
Leave me, Ajay.
Listen to me.
Her husband has done all this.
Yes, her husband has done all this.
Her husband possessed Vijay's
body and made him do this.
I don't believe it!
- You have to.
He planned, he killed,
and closed the case saying
it was an accident.
Why will he get it re-opened?
Arjun, my husband isn't Bhagat Singh
to invite death for himself.
Arjun, Vijay is possessed
by her husband's soul.
Please believe me,
I'm telling the truth.
If what you say is true,
he will come here
to save his wife.
Let him come here; I'll send her
soul along with his soul.
Let him come.
But the police has learned
everything about us.
No problem.
We are safe because of her.
She will get us out of this case.
Hey!
Come on.
- Let me go.
Hey!
Speak up!
- I won't.
You will live if you follow
his instructions.
If not, I'll kill you
and your child.
I will tell.
'Tirupathi's accident case
that created a sensation,
his wife was missing, but now,
they have sent a
video to the media.'
'My name is Sita.
I'm Tirupathi's wife.'
'I saw the news that stated
my husband was murdered,'
he didn't die in an accident.'
'Look, my husband died
in an accident.'
'After he died, I was depressed.'
'After I recover completely,
I'll meet the police.'
'So, please,
I request everyone
'The police and the media
to drop this case.'
Gowda!
Go out and see.
I am asking you to go out and see!
Go out and see.
- Okay, sir.
There's a new guy working
in the tea stall, right?
Yes.
Look at your right.
Is a man selling tender coconuts?
Yes, sir.
Look at your left,
is a man looking at the,
station under the pretext of
repairing his bike?
Is someone standing near the snack stall
and looking at the station?
Gowda, come inside.
Sir, he is telling the truth.
They all are there.
Sir...
They are waiting to kill me.
If you let me out,
they will attack me.
You can go catch them.
You will know where my wife Sita is.
Sir, I have to save my wife.
My daughter shouldn't become
an orphan like me.
If you let me out,
I'll give my daughter
to Sita and leave.
Sir, I have to save my daughter.
Sir, please.
My daughter shouldn't become
an orphan. Please, sir.
Sir, don't let me out. Please, sir.
My daughter shouldn't become
an orphan like me, sir.
Please, sir.
Hey, catch him!
Sir, look at this.
- Oh.
Press?
- Yes, sir.
He diverted us and fled.
Sir, Nanda escaped.
Did he flee?
- Yes, sir.
Did he flee?
- Yes, sir.
You go inside.
They fooled me.
No matter how far the birds fly,
they have to come
back to the nest.
Gowda, come.
- Sir.
We will have spiced tea
And relax.
- Okay, sir.
Vijay fled from the station.
Police ran after him.
I escaped from the station
and came here.
You have become very intelligent.
How did you work with
me for so many days?
He didn't escape. He wanted to
follow you to know where I am.
Who are you?
Bloody fool, you are asking for
address and ID proof before you die.
I am Tirupathi.
Common man.
Attack!
You want to kill me?
Yes. - There are twenty people
around you.
You are standing in my den.
Look.
It isn't important how many people
have rounded me up,
but who you have rounded
up is important.
I am in a fix.
You also get fixed.
No middle drop!
Until now, I fought because I wanted
people to know about my death.
But now
I'll fight to kill four
people who killed me.
You started the story by killing me.
I'll end the story by
killing everyone.
Hey!
Is this your sketch?
He is one amongst those four people!
I will kill him with you.
Sir, don't harm me.
I'm not involved in it, sir.
They did it.
Sir, please let me go.
I will kill you in four punches.
Please, don't harm my husband.
You and your husband wanted
to be happy.
You ruined our family.
Don't do that,
don't kill my husband.
I'll take care of your
daughter like mine.
I will take care of your wife too.
Are you a woman?
You saw my daughter in the hermitage
and said something.
It is pricking my heart.
No!
This is not fair.
Not fair!
Hey, didn't I tell you,
no middle drops.
Stop it, Tirupathi!
Tirupathi, don't kill him.
Don't hit him. Look!
Don't kill him so easily just
to take revenge.
I'll make sure he gets
life imprisonment.
Listen to me. Look
I'll make sure your daughter
reaches your wife safely.
Let him go for her sake!
Mom...
Sweetie!
Mom...
Where have you been?
Sweetie...
I thought I would lose you.
Sir, I want to live.
I want to live for my family.
They killed me for my money.
Sir, for my wife and child
Let me live, sir.
- It is not,
possible to come to life.
- Sir, please don't refuse.
Look, it is not possible.
Sir, let me live for my daughter's
sake, at least.
Please, sir.
Look, I understand your pain.
- Sir.
Please, sir.
- Listen to me, please.
I take the responsibility
of getting him punished.
Let him go.
Leave him and go away.
Okay, sir.
'Tirupathi,
who died, returned as soul,
solved his case
with the help of the police.'
'The four criminals who
were involved,'
in the murder have been arrested.'
'The sources say that they are all
employees of Suhasini Builders.'
'It is said that this murder took
place for the possession,'
of illegal property
worth five hundred crores.'
Sir, Suhasini has donated
the illegal,
property that was in Maya's name
to an orphanage.
She has deposited one crore
in the child's name.
He died but made sure his
family lived comfortably.
Because of Tirupathi's soul,
the case is closed.
Yes, sir.
- Good job.
Thank you, sir.
Narsimha...
I can't see your shadow.
