Hey, hold on.
Everyone's leaving?
Who's gonna be on standby here?
Have you lost it?
Faulad Singh prefers working alone.
Come. Let's go.
What's going on, Maulvi? Tell me the truth.
What? What truth?
That is not a human.
What the hell is it?
Whatever I say, you will not believe me.
Then, you'll keep torturing me until I--
I start saying those things that you want to hear from me.
Okay. No problem, I won't do anything to you.
But I give you my word,
I'll definitely put your comrades' names back on that active list right away.
You know something about that prisoner that you're not telling me. Now come on.
How does it make a difference?
Tell her everything you told us. Just tell her everything you know.
In Arabic mythology, "Ghul" is mentioned.
The one locked in your cell...
...Ali Saeed... is not human, but a Ghul.
Evil spirit.
Or what the Hindus call a monster or a demon.
And?
Any seeker who makes this sign with his blood...
surrenders his soul and then summons the Ghul.
The Ghul shows us the reflection of our guilt.
Then, he uses our own guilt against us, and then he destroys us.
But he looks just like a human.
Exactly, that is the Ghul's most powerful weapon.
The last person's flesh that he eats,
he then takes that person's identity.
[Chawla] There's a call for you, sir. It's urgent.
It better be urgent.
Colonel Dacunha here for command. Over.
[man] Sir, can you hear me? Over.
All our phone communications are down.
And we have lost an intelligence officer. Over.
We have another very strange situation here, Colonel.
Unchain me.
Please.
Talk.
And then I shall release you
-from your pain. -[whispering] Unchain me.
But how's that even possible?
No idea, Colonel. But Ali Saeed's dead body
was found in one of his own safe-houses.
DNA identification was positive,
and the strangest thing is that Saeed's body had been partially eaten.
Who summoned the Ghul here?
Did you summon it?
Who summoned the Ghul here?
Did he summon it?
-[screeching, snarling] -[Singh screaming]
Bismillah hir rehman nir rahim.
[door opens]
[Nida panting]
[footsteps approaching]
Kapoor. Kapoor, Ray!
Who set off the damn alarm?
You two should've been down there.
Sir, Faulad Singh prefers to works alone.
[Nida] Open the door!
-Kapoor! -Come on.
Help me!
Open the door. Kapoor!
Come on. Hurry up!
Hurry up! Open the door, help!
Kapoor!
Kapoor, Ray come on! Help me!
Kapoor!
Kapoor, open the door!
Open the damn door! Anyone!
Anyone there?
Come on! Help me, please!
Kapoor! Kapoor, help! Hurry up!
Open the door, Kapoor!
[Dacunha] Open it fast. What are you doing?
Stop panicking. Open it.
Hurry up, please! Open this door!
Help!
Go, go, go.
Help me! Help! Somebody open this door.
He… he's opened all the cell doors
and released all the prisoners, and he was trying to kill me.
Lieutenant, Lieutenant, calm down. Calm down.
Who? Who did that?
Ghul. Colonel, Ghul. That monster…
…he's taken... Faulad Singh.
He's in Faulad Singh's body.
Eh? What mumbo-jumbo bullshit is she coming up with? Enough.
I'm telling the truth!
Please, you have to believe me.
[Ray] Nida was telling the truth, sir.
All the cells are open.
Ahmed is still here.
Be alert everyone.
To summon the Ghul, the seeker has to make
the Ghul symbol with his own blood…
…and in exchange, the seeker must surrender his soul to the Ghul.
Everyone thinks that this man has summoned the Ghul.
Who thinks that?
The prisoners.
When did you talk to the prisoners?
Sir, how does that make a difference?
Sir, can't you see what's going on here?
-What? -Sir, the maulvi said that the Ghul
takes advantage of our own guilt and uses it against us.
You've seen what's been happening here.
You saw what happened with Chaudhary.
And then what happened with you, sir, when you were interrogating him.
-You've experienced exactly... -No, I don't.
-…the same thing, sir. -I don't know.
I… I don't remember anything.
What he said to me, what I said to him...
[scream in distance]
[Mathur] Who butchered Faulad Singh like this?
Who the hell could do this?
Ali Saeed is missing.
[Mathur] How the hell can anyone cut up a human being so brutally?
How's it possible for anyone to be so fucking barbaric?
How do you idiots not get what's happening?
Sir, just trust me right now.
[Laxmi] She is who I thought she was.
This new recruit of ours...
...she's a traitor.
What?
This woman came down here without permission.
She released all the prisoners,
and seeing Faulad Singh all alone,
they got together and vented their anger on him.
Major Das, come on. I'm on your side.
Nida Rahim's father, Shahnawaz Rahim, was nothing but a traitor.
-Major Das… -And this Nida Rahim is
none other than the only daughter of that terrorist.
Who has come to this place to avenge her father, huh?
Along with her terrorist father's fellow prisoners.
That's enough.
What? What's going on here? Are you mad?
We know. We all know that there's an impostor in our midst, officer.
Who was captured and brought here as Ali Saeed.
And to sort out this whole mess,
we should be helping Lieutenant Rahim, not arresting her.
And until we don't find out the truth...
…my order is to arrest Major Das right now.
Come on, move. Kapoor, Ray.
Chawla.
Ashima. Beware soldiers. Whoever follows this drunk's orders and supports him
will also be considered a traitor. Clear?
[Kapoor] Lamba.
Drop your weapon.
[Dacunha] Lamba.
Drop your weapon now.
Drop your weapon.
Okay… okay… listen.
You guys are...
You guys are making a huge mistake. A huge mistake.
[Laxmi] Throw Rahim and that mute Ahmed...
...into the chamber right away.
[Nida] Major Das.
-Ray and Kapoor. -Ma'am.
Find the escaped prisoners.
Everyone else upstairs, now.
The emergency alarm must have alerted the response team, they'll be here soon.
Hurry up!
Move.
[Kapoor] Come on.
Move it.
Chawla. Stop!
[maulwi] Catch her. Beat her up.
-[Parthiva] Don't let her get away. -Hey! Don't come any closer.
Don't come any closer.
You come any closer and I'll kill this guy.
What difference will the death of one more innocent make to this cemetery?
Innocent? And him?
You people think that he is a part of our group?
He used to only bring us tea.
The poor guy, he was at the wrong place at the wrong time.
He's can't be that innocent.
He's the one who called the Ghul,
who unleashed that demon on us.
Even you believe that, right?
Hmm? What does that Ghul want, huh?
What does that Ghul want? Tell me.
Stop it now.
-I won't stop until he opens his mouth. -He has lost his voice.
Your officers… Chaudhary and Gupta…
...the answers they wanted to hear from him, he didn't have them.
So then...
…they brought his wife and child over here to scare the poor guy.
And Chaudhary, in a fit of rage, murdered his helpless wife and child,
right in front of his eyes.
And since then, he's lost his voice.
Hey…
So the prisoners…
…are brought here to be killed?
You didn't know about this?
My Abbu was also brought here.
All because of me.
I thought I was doing my duty by informing the police.
I thought they'd frighten him…
…threaten him and then let him go once he understood.
But they didn't let him go.
And because of my mistake…
…he's been killed.
We have looked everywhere else, ma'am.
Ah, asshole. Why didn't you check
when you left those two in the execution chamber? Open it.
[Laxmi] Put your back into it.
Ahmed.
[Ray] Whose dead body is this?
It's... impossible to identify.
Radio and find out.
Come in. One prisoner is dead, Major.
-Copy that, soldier. -Shh.
I repeat, we've found an unidentified body. Over.
[Laxmi] Who could it be?
[Ray] Don't know.
But he has a prisoner's uniform on.
Confirmed.
-So that means... -One… one of us is…
…one of us is the Ghul.
Ahmed, you stay with me.
Look for some clue and identify the body.
Maybe Nida Rahim is right about this.
Stop talking bullshit and open the door.
Maybe, uh…
[maulwi] Easy, easy.
You weren't around for a while. That's when the Ghul must've bitten you.
We all were separated.
After the Ghul opened our cell doors,
we all ran in different directions.
No! I was with the maulvi the whole time.
No. It was pitch dark and we couldn't find each other.
Go... Get inside.
There's an exhaust pipe in there,
and a chimney that leads to a room upstairs. Go.
Brothers.
Listen.
-Rajan. -Rajan
What is it?
I think I know who the Ghul is amongst us.
[Kapoor] Look at this.
Who is it?
[Ghul snarling]
Get in!
[prisoners screaming]
No!
[gasping]
Close it! Close it!
The Ghul bit me.
Don't shoot me.
-Don't shoot me, please. -Shit.
It's like a butcher's shop in here.
Where did that mute go? Tell me.
He went that way.
And the Ghul bit me and then went after him.
Officers must be looking out for us.
We should get out of here right away.
All soldiers go upstairs.
Whoever the hell's gone up that furnace, I want them captured alive.
Both of them. Ahmed and that fucking impostor Ali Saeed. Quickly.
You won't find Ali Saeed anymore.
He's taken on another identity.
That means it's gonna butcher us just like them.
If he doesn't do it, then I will for sure.
Get out.
Move.
Now I'll show you... how diligently and passionately I do my fucking job.
What's going on, huh?
What do you know about Ali Saeed?
Huh? What's your connection with him?
Demons, ghosts, I don't want to hear all that senseless bullshit, understand?
I have no connection.
The Ghul hasn't come here for me…
…it's come here for you all.
[Mathur] Come in. Any news on Ahmed? Over.
What is your connection with Ali Saeed?
-Huh? -Enough.
-How do you know him? -Please...
Is this the fuck-all training you got in the academy?
Now talk.
Tell me.
Now talk.
-I'll tell you. -Huh?
I'll tell you.
You are…
...not like the others.
And I don't even want to be like them, Ahmed.
[Ahmed] Shh.
-Come closer... -So, tell me.
-Speak up. -...to me.
-Come closer to me. -Come on, talk.
[Kapoor on radio] Hello? Hello, Mathur?
-Hello, Mathur, come in. Where are you? -Checking the Colonel's office.
-No one's here. -Mathur, come here quickly. Hello, Mathur?
-I'm coming. On my way. -Come on, hurry up.
A little closer…
Let go of me, you bitch!
Let... let go!
This is the fuck-all training I got at the academy.
-How do you like it, huh? -[Ashima] Let go of her, Rahim.
You've been suspecting me ever since I got here. Why?
Stop or I'll shoot you, Rahim.
[gunshot]
Tell me. Why the hell are you so hell-bent
on proving that I'm a traitor?
When Ali Saeed… was captured by us...
…he just kept taking your name.
[Ghul] I want to ask you something, Captain...
...Nida Rahim, where is she, Captain?
Nida Rahim, where is she...
What?
[Laxmi] You had links with our enemies.
We knew that.
We were ordered to keep shut about it.
My posting wasn't so sudden then.
It was all well planned, huh?
Why?
I had no idea what your connection was with Ali Saeed. But I wanted to see
how he reacts when he sees you.
But why was the Ghul taking my name?
The Ghul is here only because of your father, Lieutenant.
Nida, I remember your father well…
…and also, his interrogation.
[faint whispering]
[Dacunha] He would repeat the same thing again and again.
About making a deal...
...by offering blood...
...then out of the smokeless fire of hatred...
...the Ghul will rise…
...you will not even be aware of its presence...
...and then as soon as he takes over your mind...
...horrifying nightmares will begin.
Doesn't matter if you're asleep or awake.
Finish the task…
...make them realise and accept their guilt...
...eat their flesh.
At that time I ignored what he was saying.
But when Ali Saeed took your name for the first time...
…even then... I wasn't sure.
Abbu never got out of this hell hole, right?
Just like all the other prisoners.
Nida...
…my soldiers have started disobeying my orders.
Abbu was right.
This is exactly what he was fighting against.
This false sense of patriotism that seems to be spreading through the country.
I haven't done anything wrong.
I'm not a murderer.
Reinforcements should be here soon.
Let's get out of here.
Ahmed can't be left behind.
[orchestral music playing in distance]
[music warbles, stops]
[static hums]
Stand down. Stand down. Stand down.
What's going on here?
Sir, these people have shot Ray.
And sir, we thought that… We thought that…
[Chawla] This is murder, sir.
I warned them against it.
[Babloo] Sir, it was Mathur.
We all got separated, sir.
And Ray was the only one who was all alone,
-so we thought that-- -What did you think?
That you should kill the man?
It was him. I swear to God it was him.
It's you who killed Ray. You killed him.
-Hey! -Even I thought that it was him.
Who else could it be?
Sir, I'm telling you, it has to be this bastard, sir, it's him.
He's the only one who's not one of us.
Move. Move.
I said move.
The Ghul hasn't even come close
-to this poor soul. -Really?
You seem to know it all.
He's come here for us, to take revenge.
That much I know. And also that…
...Ahmed is totally innocent.
As far as I know, if our weapons are close at hand at all times…
…and each and every move is closely monitored,
then we can all get out alive before the reinforcements arrive. Got it?
-Am I clear? -Yes, ma'am.
Ahmed.
Those tapes on that shelf next to you.
What?
Go to them.
Why?
Find Shahnawaz Rahim's tape.
May be from a few weeks ago.
Put it in the player and forward it till the end.
Nida, I've already told you what happened with your father.
I just need to confirm something, Colonel.
[Chawla] ...1400 hours, Prisoner number 35…
[Shahnawaz] The Ghul will come.
My betrayer… my daughter Nidu…
...will bear witness.
She will learn...
...and so will all of you...
...from this sin...
...that you are all knowingly committing.
[Dacunha] Okay, okay. That's enough.
We've got as much information as we could.
He's not a terrorist, he's just a confused old man.
[Ray] What should we do with him, sir?
[Dacunha] Take him to the execution chamber.
I'll supervise it, myself.
Ray, is the recording still on?
I suspected this all along.
I know that the Ghul is among us right here.
I know that you are here.
My Abbu summoned you here.
To teach me a lesson.
And I've learned my lesson.
You came here to complete a task.
So now…
...my job is to help you with that.
It's not over here.
[Ghul shrieks]
[megaphone feedback whines]
As per emergency protocol,
this whole cantonment area has been totally surrounded.
What is your status, soldier?
Everyone is dead.
Where is your commanding officer?
Everyone is dead.
-Colonel. -Down!
Hold on, soldiers. Do not fire at them.
-Stay down. Don't move. -Drop your weapon now,
-or we will shoot you. -Don't move. Down!
-Nida... -Down!
-Nida... -What the hell are you doing, Lieutenant?
This isn't the Colonel. This isn't a human.
Nida, I have… I have killed the Ghul.
Bullshit.
No human could have survived that blast.
Lieutenant, do as you're told. Drop your weapon right now.
Please, I'm telling the truth.
This is an evil spirit.
I somehow managed to get behind the desk
when the blast happened. Believe me.
I repeat, drop your weapon right now.
I'm not the Ghul.
I'm Colonel Sunil Dacunha.
This is your last warning.
Drop your weapon right now, or we will open fire.
I am a soldier. A brave soldier.
One who can do anything for his country.
With pride.
You are a monster.
[gunshot]
[chatter on radios]
[no audible dialogue]
[man] That prisoner Ahmed...
...he's been sent to a civil court.
Until the matter is in court...
...he'll be safe and taken care of.
But...
…what about your crime, Ms. Rahim?
Half the squad has witnessed it…
…and you have no defense at all.
Everyone's statement is that…
...before you surrendered…
…you shot Lieutenant Colonel Dacunha…
…who was a decorated war hero…
…at point blank range without--
The whole unit was operating outside the system, sir. Illegally.
Everyone was corrupt.
That's where you're wrong, Miss Rahim.
It was not the unit...
...that was operating illegally.
It was you. Admit it.
Lieutenant Colonel Dacunha and his entire division…
…were all just following the state policy.
And by terminating his command…
…you have proved one thing, Ms. Rahim:
That the daughter of a terrorist...
…can be nothing but a terrorist.
So, what are your plans now?
Hmm?
You want to fight the entire state?
Huh?
