"The desires that drive us towards crime,
it's better to bury them
in our mind, while there is still time."
I'm 30 years old.
This is the first time I've bought something expensive for myself.
My parents died being greedy and stingy all their life.
They would always save money for a rainy day.
And look,
in the end, all their money got left behind.
Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
Whatever we have is for today.
I won't live like them, by feeling suffocated always.
That's more like it.
Kavita Sharma.
A rag picker found this earring.
Near the worksite of the Electricity Department.
Two years ago, a lot of people used to gather here.
Boys and girls used to come in pairs
and ruin the atmosphere of this place.
One day, a horrible stench spread throughout this area.
People stopped coming here after that.
The Municipal Corporation says that no sewage line crosses that area,
nor is there any drainage.
What was the bad odor that spread two years ago, then?
And now, this earring.
Send this earring to the forensics department.
Okay, sir.
By the way, I also checked the CCTV footage there.
The rag picker is right. Shall we let him go?
Okay, but take his number first.
Okay, sir.
Sir, the forensics report for the earring has come.
They found traces of blood and skin on the earring.
The human skin had gone bad and couldn't be tested.
But the traces of blood can help us match the DNA.
- Were they found here? - Yes, sir. Here.
And the smell also was coming from here.
Get this area dug up.
Take it easy.
Remove it.
Send this skeleton to the forensics lab.
And find out who the owner of this land is, urgently.
Sir, according to the postmortem report the victim is a female.
She was murdered two years ago.
At that time, she was around 30 years old.
Traces of acid were found on the skeleton.
They would have poured on acid after the murder, to hide the identity.
I'm not able to understand the land owner.
A skeleton has been found on his land.
How did he not have any idea about it?
Sir, we have found his details.
His name is Shalabh Tripathy.
Shalabh Tripathy.
The famous astrologer who is now dead.
Is Anirudh Tripathy here?
Who is it?
Greetings, Inspector.
We want to talk to you about the land behind Jankipuram.
Please come inside.
ASTROLOGICAL PRINCIPLES
We have found a skeleton
on your land.
- Skeleton? - Skeleton?
Oh, God. Whose is it?
You should tell us that.
The girl whose skeleton it is, was 30 years old.
Who was she?
Honestly, we have no idea about all this.
Sir, maybe this is Shantanu's handiwork.
Is Shantanu your brother?
Yes, sir. Shantanu was my younger brother.
What do you mean "was"?
Uh… I mean he does not live with us anymore.
He went away somewhere two years ago.
Two years?
What happened two years ago?
The girl's skeleton that we found,
was also killed and buried two years ago.
Could it be possible that two years ago, you and your brother…
Sir, what are you saying?
Sir, I'm a small-time astrologer offering my services.
I did have an argument with my brother,
regarding my father's will and this land in question.
Just like how two brothers have fights.
I think he must have done this to trap me.
They had a sister too. Her name was Priya.
Three years ago, she was in a relationship with a boy.
Priya!
- Shameless girl. - Brother!
You're bringing a bad name to the family.
- Please leave me. - Who are you?
- Huh? What's your name? - Anirudh.
Shantanu.
- Leave him, Shantanu. - Please spare me, sir.
No, Shantanu.
- Please let him go. - Please!
I won't see him again!
- Come inside. - No, Shantanu. Please.
Listen…
If I see you near my sister again,
then I'll wipe you off the face of this Earth.
Do you see that open ground? I'll bury you alive there.
Get lost.
What happened after that?
Three years ago, Priya eloped and got married.
People's doubts are not baseless.
The younger brother Shantanu is missing.
No one knows where the younger sister Priya is.
And Anirudh…
He's sitting happily in his house.
Find out all you can about Priya.
And keep an eye on Anirudh Tripathy.
Okay, sir.
How long will you keep regretting this?
And anyway, did they leave you with any option?
Sir.
We found out the jewelry shop from the ISI mark on the earring.
It was purchased in Varanasi.
We'll soon know who purchased it too.
Find out the address of the buyer as soon as possible.
And did you find out anything about Priya's boyfriend?
Could he be from Varanasi?
We didn't find out anything from his family members.
But we got the address from Priya's college friend.
He's from Gomti Nagar in Lucknow.
Priya Tripathy.
Yes, sir. That's me.
What's the matter?
We have found the skeleton
of a 30-year-old girl from your ancestral land.
Can you tell us who that girl might be?
Skeleton?
How would I know, sir?
The land belongs to my brothers.
You never went to meet your brother despite being in Lucknow.
Why?
Sir, there was a defect in my horoscope.
And both Anirudh and Shantanu,
wanted me to do some ritual.
So that I could get married
to a rich boy of their choice.
So that they can also benefit from it.
But when I eloped and got married,
then I did not go back to them.
I couldn't gather the courage.
I don't know what they would've done to me.
What kind of rituals?
I have no idea.
I refused to partake in it.
I don't want to do any ritual.
And I know this is a plan by both of you
to get me married to Nirupam.
You know.
- That I love someone else. - Priya.
Tell her, Shantanu. Otherwise, I will not spare her.
Okay, kill me. Kill both of us.
You're not able to take Dad's astrology knowledge forward,
and you're venting that anger on me.
You couldn't take Dad's legacy ahead,
it's better you burn all his books too.
Priya, mind your tongue.
Tell her.
What trunk?
What kind of books were they?
Sir, I don't know much,
but yes, they were Dad's secret books.
Neither Anirudh nor Shantanu
were capable of understanding them,
or maintaining them.
Have you seen this before?
No, sir. This does not belong to our house.
The family that predicts the future of other people
has hidden so many secrets about its past and present.
There is a lady in the Tripathy family
about whom we don't know much, yet.
Sir, excuse me.
Okay.
We've got information about the jewelry buyer from Varanasi.
Her name is Kavita Sharma.
She purchased it two years ago.
Kavita.
I'm hearing this name for the first time.
Sir, we have the address too.
She lives in Daliganj, Lucknow.
The girl is from Lucknow, but went to buy jewelry from Varanasi.
And we found her body in Lucknow.
What is this puzzle?
What is Kavita's connection to the Tripathy family?
Let's go to Daliganj.
Sir, her name was Kavita Sharma.
I bought this house from her two years ago.
She had asked four million for it.
And in cash.
Here you go.
These are the agreement papers. Please have a look.
In these two years,
did you ever meet Kavita?
No, sir. There was never a need to meet her.
I did message her a couple of times, but I did not get a reply.
I did not try after that.
Please give me her number.
Get the CDR for this number on an urgent basis.
We've got a number belonging to Ashwini from Kavita's CDR.
She's Kavita's best friend.
She sounded nervous.
I've called her to the police station.
Kavita was my childhood friend.
Two years ago,
she suddenly disappeared one day.
Her phone was also switched off.
I went to her house.
And there I found out
that she had sold the house too.
I thought she may have gone with her boyfriend somewhere,
but now you're saying…
I had tried to convince her
not to blindly trust anyone.
But she…
Who should not be trusted?
Her boyfriend.
He's the one who has done all this.
Who was he? Do you know him?
I don't know, sir.
Who he was or where he came from.
I don't know anything.
Kavita never introduced him to me.
Kavita always told me
that their meeting
was the game of destiny.
Three days before she went missing, Kavita had called me.
Hello.
Hi, Ashwini. Listen.
Keep yourself free on Saturday.
I will introduce you to my boyfriend.
Finally, let's see who your hero is.
After that, I have no idea where she went.
No calls, no messages, no nothing.
Before she went missing,
I noticed that
she had suddenly changed.
She would say strange things.
Like, "The future is going to change."
And that she wouldn't
continue living like before.
She had become very strange.
Did Kavita happen to mention
the Tripathy family, while talking to you?
The people who might have predicted her future.
No, sir.
Is there any blood relative
of Kavita, with whom we can match the DNA?
Or maybe even a distant relative who can give us more information?
She did not have any relatives.
Her parents died in a car accident around seven to eight years ago.
She was their only child.
Okay. If you remember anything else, please tell us.
This case is not what it looks like.
Kavita's parents were no more.
Kavita was free to marry anyone of her choice.
There was no one to stop her.
Hiding and dating someone,
selling the house for four million cash…
What is this?
Her CDR is also clean.
If there is anyone
who can help us untie these knots,
then that is Kavita's boyfriend.
Sir, it's possible that Kavita might have another phone.
I'll get the details of the IMEI number of her phone.
If Kavita did not have any connection
with the Tripathy family,
then why was she
buried in the Tripathy family's land?
Just a minute, sir.
Okay.
Sir, we've tracked down Shantanu Tripathy.
He's in Kanpur.
Yes, sir?
Shantanu Tripathy?
- Yes. - May I come in?
Yes, please.
Just a minute.
Place your right foot first, please. It's auspicious.
Do you know Kavita Sharma?
Kavita Sharma?
I've not heard the name before. Who is she?
You have a disputed property in Lucknow, right?
We found the skeleton of this girl on that land.
And the coincidence is when she was murdered,
you also left Lucknow at the same time.
No, sir.
You've found the body after I left Lucknow.
Which means you have to question Anirudh.
Because the body was found on his land.
He may have sacrificed someone for his benefit.
He always chose wrong methods to become a better astrologer.
I always did
what our father told us.
And that's why I was Dad's best student.
And Anirudh was a loser.
So, it could be possible
that he killed someone
by using black magic to achieve a shortcut.
You also
seemed to have done well, using shortcuts.
Your brother still lives in the same old house in the same old way.
But you have a wonderful house.
How did you do it without a shortcut?
Did you find four or five million rupees just lying around?
No, sir.
But you see,
I'm much better
than Anirudh at astrology.
And that's why I earn well too.
And maybe you
have come here with wrong information.
This house or property that you're seeing, is not mine.
This belongs to my wife.
She's an investment banker.
Okay, let's assume that you're a very clean person.
Then tell us why you ran away from Lucknow.
And what about those secret books?
Why did you steal them?
No, sir.
I did not run away from there.
But you know,
when there is a rift between brothers,
then it's best for everyone, when they part ways.
And what I learned from my knowledge,
was that there was danger looming
on the people living in that house.
That's why I got out of that place.
They are in trouble.
I must say you have a clear view of the future.
As you say, sir.
But as far as property is concerned,
both of us should have equal rights over it.
Shantanu, can you tell me
who might have killed Kavita?
No, sir.
I can't say much about this.
You'll have to ask Anirudh about this.
Or two of his special students.
Who were those students?
Ravi and Aditya.
Three years ago, they were living with us in our house.
So that they could
learn all the nuances of astrology.
But since Anirudh could not teach them anything, they went away.
We were working there.
We used to get paid for that.
And we were learning astrology from Mr. Anirudh.
But why are you asking me all this?
Because we found a skeleton
belonging to a girl named Kavita, on your Mr. Anirudh's land.
Have you ever heard of Kavita?
Did you ever meet her in Anirudh's house or near their house?
I don't know any Kavita.
And please don't drag me into all this.
I only minded my business there.
We will find out who is minding whose business.
I'm not lying, sir.
I was there only for six months.
And if you want to ask anything,
please ask Aditya Shrivastav.
He had an affair with some girl.
He would make and receive many phone calls.
Once you do B.Com, you're sure to find a job for Rs 8,000-10,000.
That's why I've come here.
I thought I'd learn astrology
and start online astrology.
It's very popular these days.
Who was that girl? Kavita?
I think it was Roopa.
I'm not very sure. But it was not Kavita.
Aditya's phone is turned off right now.
Do you have his address?
Yes, sir. He stays in Rajajipuram.
Sir, I don't know any Kavita.
My son Aditya is in Bangalore.
He's married and living there.
What's your daughter-in-law's name? Is it Roopa?
Who is Roopa, sir?
My daughter-in-law's name is Nilofer.
They met in Bangalore.
They work in the same company. Just a minute, sir.
Here, sir.
Please give us Aditya's contact number.
Everyone is pretending to be innocent.
But everyone has hidden something from us.
I'm not able to understand who Kavita is connected to.
And who killed her?
Poor girl does not have anyone to call her own.
If the rag picker had not found her earring,
then no one would probably ever find out about Kavita.
The only lead we have,
is Aditya.
Call him and see what he has to say.
The number you are trying to call is not in service.
Call his company and get his and Nilofer's history.
And also get Aditya's father Santosh's CDR.
Okay, sir.
I'm PSI Amit from BR Nagar Police Station.
A man named Aditya Shrivastav works in your company.
I wanted some information about him.
What?
False details?
How is that possible? What are you saying, sir?
How can the details be fake?
Call him.
The number you are trying to call is not in service.
But how is this possible, sir?
Aditya talks to me from this number every month.
When was the last time you met your son?
Around two years ago.
Two years?
You've not met your son who lives in this country, in the last two years?
Sir, actually…
We don't get along with each other.
I am providing you with two meals a day.
That's more than enough.
If you want to spend more money, then work hard and earn it.
I have asked only for Rs 1,000 from you.
And that's because it's my birthday.
Can't you do even this much for your son?
What will you do with all your money?
I'll take it when I die.
- Okay? - Okay.
One day, I will also earn a lot of money.
And I will come and throw that money in your face.
- I'm leaving. - Get lost.
Building castles in the air.
Are you worthy enough to even earn the money?
I will come back when I'm worthy enough.
Return when he's worthy, yeah, right.
After that, he called me from Bangalore.
He said that he had a job
for a salary of Rs 25,000, in Bangalore.
He used to take money from me at first.
Now that he was earning, I was happy
that my money was saved.
And yes, sir. He sends me money every two to three months.
Please tell me, sir,
for a father, what else can be better than this?
Did you not try to meet your son
even once in two years?
No, sir. It's not like that.
I called him here,
but he said it's tough to get leave from work.
So I also felt, that since he's earning,
what would we do meeting anyway?
How can we contact Aditya, then?
You can talk to Nilofer.
Nilofer, I'm…
Police Inspector Mahendra Pal Singh
from BR Nagar Police Station, Lucknow.
Can I speak to Aditya Shrivastav?
Aditya who? I don't know any Aditya.
Your husband Aditya Shrivastav.
You both work together in Bangalore, right?
Sir, I'm speaking from Kashmir.
I have never been to Bangalore or Lucknow.
You are mistaken.
What is she saying?
This number?
Do one thing. Please go home.
We'll call you back if we want to ask you anything.
Kavita has been missing for two years.
Aditya is also missing since two years ago.
And no one knows anything.
The plot where we found Kavita's skeleton…
Get the land dug up further.
Once again?
I have a gut feeling
that we have to still find many more things from that land.
Get the forensics report done for this skeleton.
And match the DNA with Santosh.
The controversial and recently talked about land in Jankipuram
has revealed another skeleton.
Whom do these skeletons belong to?
And what has happened to them?
The police are unable to answer these questions.
According to sources we have found out
that the police suspect the Tripathy brothers.
Was this crime done for each other's enmity?
Or is there a terrifying truth behind this crime?
Sir, your guess was right.
The DNA report matched.
The skeleton belongs to Aditya.
Was it Kavita who used to call Aditya?
But Kavita's number is saved as Roopa on Aditya's phone.
Who could have
killed both of them?
Could it be Aditya's father, Santosh?
But what would his motive be?
Money.
Kavita had four million with her.
Santosh is stingy.
Maybe greed made him blind too.
And if Santosh did not commit this murder,
then who could it have been from the Tripathy family?
Shantanu, Anirudh, Ravi, Priya and Santosh.
Check everyone's bank accounts.
Kavita had four million.
There is bound to be unusual activity
in one of their bank accounts.
Okay, sir.
TWO SKELETONS FOUND BURIED ON AN ABANDONED LAND
DISRESPECTFUL BEHAVIOR OF THE FATHER AND LEAVING HOME LED TO THE DEATH OF SON
Sir, there are no Bangalore numbers in Santosh's CDR.
And the email ID through which Santosh got Nilofer's photo,
that ID was created in Varanasi.
Search Nilofer's photo on the internet.
The photo is also fake.
Someone has merged her photo with Aditya's photo
and created this new image.
But why would Aditya's father lie to us?
According to him, Aditya calls him every month.
Use of technology.
Someone has used AI software
and spoken to Aditya's father in Aditya's voice.
The question is,
why did the killer need to do this?
What is the connection between
Kavita and Aditya?
Sir, I have my doubts about Ashwini too.
She was the one who told us about her best friend Kavita's boyfriend.
Her friend suddenly disappeared,
but she did not bother calling the police.
Yes, there is a possibility.
Speak to her and find out.
There's only one thing
that I'm finding common in all this.
And that's the Tripathy family's plot.
Why did they kill both of them and bury them on the same land?
We have three leads at the moment.
A call that was made using the software.
An email that was sent from Varanasi.
And the earring,
which we found at the crime scene.
I'm sure the earring fell there,
while Kavita's body was buried.
It's possible that the killer might have more of Kavita's jewelry.
Maybe they even tried to sell it.
Yes. Get different teams ready,
and trace the earring. Find out where it was sold and who sold it.
Trace the email.
Find out which computer in Varanasi
was used to send that email.
And finally trace the SIM card,
that was used to make the call. Even if it's fake, speak to the seller,
and I'm sure you'll get some leads.
BR NAGAR POLICE STATION
Mr. Santosh, your DNA had a match.
That skeleton belongs to Aditya.
What?
Did the DNA match?
But…
How can it match?
Sir…
Adit…
Aditya…
I'm sorry I am
saying this to you like this. But,
you did not even think of meeting Aditya for two years.
I had lost my mind, sir.
I had lost my mind.
He was earning money there,
and I did not want to take his responsibility.
I was…
I was just thinking about myself, sir.
But we can assure you
that we will surely punish the person
who did this to Aditya.
Sir, from Lucknow to Varanasi,
we checked all the jewelers,
but the second earring did get sold anywhere.
That means the other earring is still with the accused.
Yes, sir. The second one and the third one.
Third one?
Sir, six months ago a jeweler in Lucknow
got an order to make a copy of that earring.
That means the one who placed the order,
had one earring with them.
Whose name was the order in?
This is the house, sir.
Yes?
Do you recognize this earring?
My husband Mukesh found a similar earring, sir.
It was buried under the mud.
Within two years of finding this earring,
our fortunes and luck changed completely.
Mukesh purchased five tempos within two months.
Once we had enough money, we got the other earring made.
What is your connection with Aditya?
Aditya who?
I don't have any friend or relative by this name.
What is your connection with the Tripathy family?
It's my sister-in-law's husband's family.
Take her phone and wait till her husband comes home.
We couldn't get much information from the neighbors.
There is a new update, Amit.
Mukesh's sister is a daughter-in-law of the Tripathy family.
Can we come in?
Please come in.
The inspector is here.
Please come.
Wow.
Everyone is here.
That's good.
We'll not have to work very hard.
One of this family
which predicts other's futures,
killed an innocent 30-year-old girl
and buried her in the ground.
First, she was strangled,
then she was burned with acid
and buried. And even that wasn't enough
for the murderer.
Aditya was hit on the head and killed
and then buried in the same place.
Ms. Priya.
Both your brothers took away what was yours.
They threatened to kill your husband and troubled him.
You would have continued to be happy,
if both of them were busy with their fights,
and they wouldn't find time to think about you.
Mr. Shantanu.
You were worried
that all the property
would be forcibly taken by Anirudh.
You wanted Anirudh to neither
get the land, nor sell it.
And that's exactly what happened.
In two years, two bodies
were buried on that land.
Now, no one would buy that land.
And in these two years, your destiny turned around.
You became super rich, thanks to your
investment banker wife.
Can I please get some water?
Yes…
Roo, please get some water.
What happened? Why did you stop?
I see.
Roo.
Roo means Roopa.
Roopa is her maiden name.
Am I right, Mrs. Anita Tripathy?
We have come here for you.
Now tell us,
why did you kill
Kavita and Aditya?
What nonsense is this?
You're after my family.
Kind sir, please calm down.
You predict the future of the entire world,
but you couldn't understand what was in your wife's mind?
Tell me. Speak up.
What else could I do?
Aditya was troubling me so much,
and Anirudh
was so busy in learning and teaching,
that my loneliness
was not even visible to him.
Then, one day,
I happened to notice Aditya.
After that,
Give me your phone.
Save my number as Roopa.
Roopa?
This is my maiden name.
But he was, after all, a kid.
And he was bent upon taking what was not his.
Let me go, Aditya.
Leave me. What are you doing?
Aditya…
Leave me.
Delete this video.
Delete it.
How could you do such a cheap thing?
Do you think I'm a toy to play with?
You played to your heart's content
and then discarded me.
You know
I'm learning to see the future.
I'm not an expert yet
but whatever little I can see
your future is bleak.
Yes, the Sun named Aditya can definitely rise.
Now it's up to you to decide.
What else could I do?
I silenced him
forever.
But why did you kill Kavita?
Bring her brother Mukesh.
The dear brother got into the battlefield
so that he could save his sister's home.
You must be thinking
that despite making such a tight plan,
how did the police find out?
Karma. Mukesh.
Karma.
A person's destiny
is decided by the deeds they do today.
And not the lines on their face or forehead.
The criminal
always leaves some clue behind.
But you
took the evidence with you
and kept it carefully.
Please don't drag me into all this for no reason, sir.
How did Kavita's earring
come to you when you haven't done anything?
You have a transport service, right?
To speak to Santosh,
you purchased a fake ID
through your client.
You purchased a fake SIM.
We have the CCTV footage for this.
You used another client's help and created a fake email ID in Varanasi.
We know about that too.
There was no one who Kavita could call her own.
No one would come to ask for her.
But Aditya's father is alive.
So, the plan had to be perfect for him. Right?
I did not have any intention of killing Kavita.
I just wanted her money.
But she wanted to settle down.
She was very happy that day.
That's more like it.
Kavita Sharma.
These earrings look great on you.
Make sure to wear them on our wedding day.
Wedding?
Are we finally getting married?
Yes, my love.
And this time, we will get married for sure.
But we will go away from here, forever.
Pack your things.
And yes, keep the cash properly in a black bag.
No one should know that we have so much cash.
Who knows what people's intentions are?
Okay.
What happened? Why did you stop the bike here?
A friend of mine is bringing his car.
We will go by car from this point.
Just wait for a couple of minutes. I'll be right back.
Then you gave the earring to your wife.
And she gave it to the jeweler.
Three months after killing Kavita,
Roopa told me about Aditya.
Which is this place?
I don't know.
Anirudh called and told me
to bring you to the disputed land.
I brought you here.
But, Guruji did not tell me anything.
I'll do one thing.
I'll call Guruji and find out where he is.
Arrest the brother and sister.
Anirudh, please forgive me.
Anirudh.
I wish Kavita had realized the oncoming danger
when Mukesh
told her to go along with him with four million rupees
and all her jewelry.
And he also told her,
not to tell anyone.
This was not normal from any angle.
But Kavita trusted the love that she had for Mukesh.
Blind trust.
And the price that she had to pay for this trust
was her life.
I wish after Kavita's disappearance,
her best friend, Ashwini,
had contacted the police just once.
There was a chance that
Mukesh could've been caught
before he committed the second merciless murder.
I wish Anita would have spoken to Aditya and convinced him
instead of choosing the criminal way.
She could have spoken to Anirudh.
Two lives would have been saved from being snuffed out.
