Thirty-one crores?
What kind of man steals 31 crores?
And that too from his own brother?
Who else knew about this?
Just me and…
Did you tell anybody?
Who would I have told?
What friends do I have anyway?
Then who?
Could it be Arvind?
What if Arvind knows?
Hang on, let me think.
Dead, we are dead.
Arvind will definitely kill us.
You think Arvind would ply you with single malt if he knew?
If not Arvind, then who?
Someone else.
Read what it says.
What?
Thirty-one crores, 12 lakhs, 60,545…
Five-hundred and forty-five?
That means whoever has sent this knows the exact amount.
Means he has proof.
Bloody hell.
-What kind of an idiot was this Prabhakar? -Lower your voice.
Went and died conveniently, and now he is haunting us as a ghost.
Swathi, I am dead sure he is going to send us to prison.
But why are you limping?
I don't know what to do.
Wherever I look, I only see his face.
It feels as if he’s laughing at me.
Fucking bastard.
-Dad? -What?
-Sandy? -Mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes?
They’re biting.
You'd rather they smooch you?
Sandy, wait.
Sandy. Take this, son.
And listen…
Don’t take it to heart, okay? You know…
What’s wrong with you? He’s your son.
I have no son. I'm nobody's father. And I haven't stolen a thing.
All of these are your Prabhu’s misadventures.
Baby.
You are Prabhu.
You.
All of Prabhu's misadventures are on you.
We don't have a choice, okay? Come.
Now you go to sleep, okay?
-Okay. -Okay, tomorrow’s a big day.
You need the rest. Don't stress.
We have to meet the police tomorrow too.
Baby. But Swathi, this blackmail…
Please, Prabhu.
We'll deal with tomorrow when it comes.
Thupalli!
Kiddo?
Hey, don't make that face.
Remember what your grandpa used to say.
-"Whatever the forest gives--" -I know, Uncle.
Was this the kind of stuff you ate in the forest?
Now and then.
But do you know what my commander, Lenin, used to tell me?
"For a true warrior's battle for honor…"
-"Half a stomach is twice full." -"Half a stomach is twice full."
You miss home?
Sometimes.
And Mum?
She was still a kid when we crossed over to this place.
For her, this was home.
You miss her a lot, don't you?
I miss her music.
She was mute, but…
I don’t know how she taught herself to play the piano.
When I heard it the first time, Appu…
it was so beautiful.
Such a sweet melody.
She remembered the scissors and cut.
Wassup.
What's cooking, Uncle?
Couldn’t find a bigger kill, Lucas?
Age seems to be catching up with you.
Don’t be mean, Dad. Uncle actually found me a deer.
-Oh! -But I messed up the shot.
Hunting? You can hunt here?
Meet Surya. Mannikam’s nephew.
He’s come from Chennai for our deal.
And she is my daughter, Apeksha.
Future owner of Rising Sun Tea and Co.
I only do accounts for Dad. My plan is to study art.
What kind of art?
Well, I like to paint. And recently, I've been dabbling with charcoal also.
You’re going to the police station, right?
And did your guy call from Odisha?
He did. Umesh hasn't reached there yet.
I feel like he's hiding somewhere close.
And what are you doing about it?
If the cops find him before us, we are fucked.
Understood?
-Good morning, sir. -Sir.
-That-- -Good morning, sir.
We've sent a team to catch those guys.
What is it, sir?
-Inspector Hassan. -Yes, sir.
What happened to your nose?
Sir, yesterday, I…
Doesn't matter, you come fast, now.
Prabhakar Shetty and Swathi Shetty are waiting for you.
Okay, sir.
How long have you known Umesh Pillai?
Around…
seven, eight years.
How well do you know him?
I used to go to the club for massage
with my brother, Arvind Shetty.
When did the blackmail start?
About three, four months back.
Why?
Why did Umesh Pillai blackmail you?
Inspector, it's just that I…
had a…
habit.
Habit?
Whatever I did,
I did unintentionally.
-I-- -For God’s sake Prabhu.
You’re a fucking sex addict.
Motherfucker.
Yes.
I am a sex addict.
At parties, with the help of my charm or my money,
all I want is sex.
I was destroying my life.
Swathi, my dear loving wife…
I cheated on her too.
I suspected it, but I wasn’t sure.
LAST WARNING PAY 50 LAAKH OR I SAY UR BRO
But what I don’t understand is…
how is your brother’s money related to this blackmail?
I got to know about a land deal two years ago.
It was a 30-crore deal
Arvind used to invest in my company.
He put in half, I put in the other half.
When the date for the deal arrived, then, suddenly,
the itch hit me.
-The itch? -The hunger.
Hunger for sex.
So, I organised a party.
Called for booze, DJ, drugs, the whole shebang.
And Russians from Chennai.
There was a girl amongst them.
What a hottie. Just like…
-pink salmon. -Prabhu.
Sorry, I had gone mad. Wasn't thinking straight.
Partied like a fiend all night.
Next day, when I woke up…
the girl and the 30 crores…
Both gone.
I knew it.
I was scared shitless.
Okay, so how did Umesh Pillai know about all this?
Because he was there.
He was there at the party.
I had called him for a massage, that motherfu--
Seems like you were correct about Umesh.
Do you need anything else? Or shall we…
Sir…
There is one question, madam.
Sure.
You knew Pillai, right?
Yeah, I told you.
He attacked you first, right?
Yes.
So?
So, we thought it is…
-possible-- -Madam?
Did Pillai lust after you?
Excuse me?
His boss told me that he was a big flirt,
and he attacked you.
So, we thought Ume--
Neither did I know Umesh nor did we speak much.
He was Prabhu’s masseuse. I mean, a servant.
If he had other ideas, then I wouldn't know, you know?
So, are we done then?
Yes, madam.
-Thank you for your cooperation. -Thank you.
-Sorry to bother you like this, madam. -No problem.
We are all very emotional here at Nezhimalai.
You see, we lost our Junior Inspector recently.
"Lost" means?
Gone, sir. Dead.
I think you met him? Thupalli?
-Thupalli? -That sweet baby face.
Oh, yes, I remember him.
-Swathi-- -How was that Hassan talking to me?
I actually got nervous for a bit.
I was nervous too.
But you were very good.
It felt just like it was Prabhu talking.
Swathi, what was that DSP talking about? About that Junior Inspector?
I don’t know.
We had nothing to do with his death, right?
-Are you mad? Am I a serial killer? -Not at all.
But Mainjur River is right next to Suicide Point--
Umesh, please.
How would I know?
Okay, sorry.
He just couldn't shut the hell up.
And that's why your boss' 30 crores are…
warming up a Russian whore's ass.
What else did he say?
Nothing else.
And we are back to square one.
Instead of looking for the right clues all this time…
Sir!
Sir! That Manisha Koirala…
That Pillai is missing.
-That burka woman… -Manisha Koirala.
Missing!
And most importantly,
Nadar's camera is missing.
One plus one equals two.
For God’s sake, Prabhu, you’re a fucking sex addict.
Motherfucker.
What do you think?
Yes. I am a sex addict.
The town already knows what sort of man Prabhakar Shetty is.
Yet somehow, I feel bad for Mrs. Shetty.
Loyalty to your wife is such an important thing.
Looking at Prabhakar Shetty today, I felt…
that there was something off about him.
As though a child had put on his father's shirt.
Neither did I know Umesh nor did we speak much.
That--
Neither did I know Umesh nor did we speak much.
He was Prabhu’s masseuse. I mean, a servant.
Neither did I know Umesh nor did we speak much.
He was Prabhu's--
When the sun has died and the night creatures cry,
follow the fireflies to the place where all secrets lie.
When the sun has died and the night creatures--
We caught them, sir.
-Okay? -Okay.
Let's go.
Where is everyone?
Why is it so dark?
No idea.
Welcome, sir!
Please come if you’re free, sir.
-Madam. -What time is the performance?
Performance?
At the Kalari gym? I do a show there every week. That.
Oh.
So, tell me about the black money.
Sorry?
Just tell me about the money we stole from Arvind.
How much Kirtima?
Why’s she asking me all this?
Don’t talk to him.
Talk to me.
How much?
-I’ll have to see the accounts. -Thirty-one.
Thirty-one crores, 12 lakhs, 60,545 rupees, Kirtima.
Don’t act like you don’t know.
What are you trying to say?
Who all know about it?
Sir, me,
and now you.
So, no one else in the office knows?
-Or in Arvind's office? -No.
Last Resort and Rising Sun books are entirely separate.
Arvind sir gets only the revenue reports, which he doesn't look at by the way.
Spare me the technical bullshit, Kirtima.
Just tell me that, other than me and Prabhu…
only you know about this, right?
Yes.
But why are you asking me?
Because we don’t trust you.
I mean,
after what happened to me, we need to be sure.
Sir, for more than ten years I have worked for you.
I have committed a crime
and gone against my father's teachings, just for you.
Still, I'm trying to do my best and…
although we are almost bankrupt...
Bankrupt?
-Yes. -"Bankrupt" means?
Means we have no money.
The company account has a little over one crore.
And I have not even taken any salary for several months.
Soon this office will be gone.
This office, Hotel California,
-your house, your car-- -Wait, wait.
What do you mean, "gone"?
Swathi, loans. Your loans.
Why do these have my name on them?
Bastard!
That motherfucker, that asshole Prabhu.
-Baby, please calm down. -No.
Look, at least we know now that it isn’t Kirtima.
Who blackmails beggars anyway?
-Shut up. -Baby?
-That could have hurt. -Shut up! Just shut up, you idiot.
Why are you calling me an idiot?
Idiot!
Why do I only find morons like you?
Don't call me a moron.
All of this is because of you.
First theft, then blackmail, and now jail.
I’m the one going to jail. The cops will arrest me.
You're talking as if I was the one who signed those loans on your name.
You used to beg me. Remember?
"I'm broke, my rent is due, have to pay installments."
And like a fool, I stole money to give it to you
so you could blow it all on gambling!
You used me, Prabhu. Fuck you!
I put my life on the line for you.
And you’re saying that I used you?
-Yes, you used me, Prabhu! -I am not Prabhu!
Umesh.
You’re alive today thanks to me!
I saved your life!
Okay.
-For you… -No, please don't.
-Look at what I have done to myself. -Sorry.
-My life, integrity, existence… -Okay, calm down.
-Gave all of it up. -Sorry.
I have loved you!
I did you a favour, ungrateful bitch!
-No, Prabhu! -Dad!
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Sir.
Sir, please sir. Stop it!
Where did you guys find that bike?
Sir, a customer must have left it there.
You guys aren't here for theft…
but for a policeman's murder.
Murder?
Policeman?
Sir, this is way beyond us.
You are small timers. You don't have to say it again and again.
You run a gambling parlour without a license,
serve liquor that is illegal, and have stolen a policeman's bike.
Sir! We haven't killed anyone, and we didn't break your nose.
I swear on my grandpa's daughter-in-law.
You can swear on your mom, your sister or your grandma.
This is my town.
And only what I say is the truth here.
So tell me.
Two crores?
I wanted to open a restaurant.
Who can it be?
What was I even thinking?
Let’s run away.
You really think that I have used you?
And you think you've done me a favor.
Where are you off to?
Umesh?
I hate my dad.
Same pinch, bruh.
Do they always fight like this?
I don’t know, dude. I don’t live here.
I failed my high school exams.
What?
Yes. Don’t tell Mom.
You smoke?
Of course.
Sandy.
-Sandy? -What?
-Hello? Guys, stay quiet. -Kirtima, where are you?
-Hello? -There's an emergency.
Need an urgent withdrawal from the company account--
Prabhu sir? I can’t hear you.
I am at Kalari Centre. My performance is about to start.
You’re coming, right?
I'm coming. I'm coming, Kirtima.
I came to the forest to find a fallen tree, to cut and sell it.
That's when I found the bike over there.
I thought it would rust away if I left it there,
so I gave it to them.
You're saying that like you gave it away for free.
No, sir, I sold it to them. But other than that, I am just a--
Small-timer, right?
How is it that all of you are singing the same song?
You read what's written there?
What's written there, sir?
-Asha, book him for bike theft. -Sir!
-And these three… -Book them for assault?
No, let it be.
-Thanks a lot, sir. -Hey!
Book them for gambling and the sale of illegal liquor.
-Sir, please, sir. -Get lost.
-Sir, please let us go.
Sir, please listen!
What's the plan now, sir?
What’s up, queen?
Haven't seen you in class for a while. Why?
How did you know my address?
You're still chopping like a rookie.
When will you learn, Manisha Koirala?
Why have you come here?
Didn't you say you wanted private classes?
You asked me for the secret ingredient and then disappeared.
Sorry, teacher, but I won’t be able to do it.
-Please leave. -Why?
Because you murdered someone?
The police had come to my shop.
But I didn’t breathe a word to them.
This chef protects her students.
-What do you want? -Aunty!
Coming, Appu! Please leave now.
The stove is yours, but the fire is mine.
Hurry up, or the smoke will spread.
Appu, move it. Give me a second.
Move.
Aunty, are you okay?
Yes, child, I am fine.
Aunty?
Oh, God!
It's okay.
It's okay. Let it out.
I'm fine, child. Thanks.
What happened today between the two of you?
Nothing. That stuff keeps happening.
Keeps happening?
Aunty, he was going to hit you. How dare he?
No, you've got it wrong.
After the attack…
he's been stressed out.
Oh, please.
I heard what you guys said to each other.
Really? What did we say?
All those abuses.
And some stuff about property and money, and then he just drove off.
Is it something to do with his company?
Because that day you had said that you are going to open a resort?
And yesterday, I heard Dad say
he's going to stop investing in Last Resort.
I mean, it's not like Uncle doesn’t have the funds, right?
He’s doing quite well, isn't he?
But I thought Last Resort is doing really well?
But he looked so furious, so I thought…
What?
Appu, you?
I HAVE COME TO THE KALARIPAYATTU SHOW TO MEET KIRTIMA. WILL COME SOON.
How dare you?
-Aunty, wait. -What the--
What blackmail are you talking about?
You know exactly what I am talking about, Appu.
Wait, let me tell Prabhu.
-No, no. -What the--
Calling him won't be good for you.
-Give me back my phone. -No, I won't. What will you do?
How can you talk to me like that?
Fuck, you are right. I'm sorry.
I am sorry. Please sit. Let's talk.
Please sit. Sorry.
Look, tell whoever you want.
What do you think will happen? Dad will get angry at me,
and my France dream will be over. That’s it?
But think about Uncle for a second.
What will Dad do to him when he finds out?
And in all this, you can forget about your restaurant.
But Appu, of all people, you?
You’re my baby. How can you blackmail me?
You’re like a mother to me.
And I'm sorry, but I’m not like you.
I don’t have the patience to wait and wait and wait.
Aunty, please.
Dad will never let me do what I want. Never.
-Help me. -I can't help you.
-Then help yourself. -What does that mean?
-Means you and me, together. -What?
-We can blackmail Uncle together. -No.
Just listen…
Like I’ve asked for two crores, I can ask for five.
It's not like he can’t afford it.
Are you mad?
Why should you care about him?
What has he done for you in all these years?
Just imagine, he stole 30 crores from Dad.
You could've opened ten restaurants with that money.
Go home, Appu.
But why are you talking like this?
It makes no sense. He's so selfish.
-We don't have the money, Appu, you're-- -He has so much money.
He has enough money.
-No, no. -He's rolling in cash.
-It's only five crores. -We’re broke. Flat broke.
Stupid cow. She should've seen that coming.
Take your mask off or I'll blow your brains out.
You can try, but you can't.
Why not?
I am a jungle fighter.
And in the jungle,
you don’t know where it will come from.
Where what will come from?
The bullet that will kill you.
Good performance.
When that guy…
attacked you, I was…
I mean, I got so scared.
And you were so amazing with that sword.
And that steel whip flying everywhere.
Missed you by inches.
Up. Keep--
Keep up, up.
Keep it up.
So, that…
I wanted to…
talk about something urgent.
You had said there was over one crore…
in the company--
Swathi.
Baby, she was teaching me Kalaripayattu moves.
Baby?
There was a double murder charge on me
at Shaitan Chowki Police Station in Mumbai.
I was 22.
That’s when I ran away and came to Mainjur.
This mansion here?
It was all jungle here.
Foreigners came here to smoke weed and do the in-out.
You understand in-out?
Miss Apeksha.
Hey, Appu.
My girl.
Come.
Come on.
-Next time, Dad, please. -No way, just sit down.
Sit. You too sit.
You know, my wife passed away giving birth to my Appu.
Was working that night, like a dick.
I had a small business then. Had to work round the clock.
But I shouldn't have.
I blame myself for it every single day.
I wonder what my wife thinks of me from up there.
Sir?
Oh, yeah. Let me get to the point.
-Surya? -Sir.
Moron.
Your uncle thought that he could send his rookie nephew for the deal
and Arvind wouldn’t mind?
No, sir. I told you that Mannikam uncle was unwell so--
Fuck Mannikam's mom.
Arvind Shetty set his wife and child aside to build this empire.
I’m going to squeeze every penny out of you guys.
Fuck you, Dad.
Fuck your deal, your stupid ego and your fucking empire.
You’re using Mom’s name to make this deal.
Talking like you’ve made so many sacrifices.
You’re just a two-bit gangster--
-Appu, come here. -Arvind.
-Move aside, Lucas. -Hey!
Don't you dare do that ever again.
Sir, absolutely no network.
My dad would have gathered the whole town by now.
Your daddy, right?
Must be passed out drunk in some gutter.
Sir.
Let's come back in the morning.
What if I slip and fracture a leg?
If you break your leg, I'll carry you on my back.
But think about what will happen if I break mine.
-Sir? -Yeah.
What are we looking for anyway?
Thupalli was last here before he died.
Something happened here.
Sir where is Begum?
Begum?
Begum!
"When sun has died…
night creatures cry."
Firefl-
"Follow the firefly."
Follow. Asha! Firefly!
Follow the--
-Follow the firefly! -Fuck my life.
Asha, come, it is going… It is going there.
Come, come. Follow it.
Follow. Come.
