(sentimental music)
(tense music)
Whoever you are, you don't know who I am.
Aren't you Avinash Mishra's wife?
I know.
That's why I am giving you special treatment.
Look...
don't do this.
You won't survive.
Shut up, bitch!
Doesn't Varun come to this park?
(intense music)
Come on.
Let's go. Hurry up!
Come on.
(melancholic music)
(title montage)
(tense music)
Greetings, Goddess.
I feel so blessed to meet Bandit King Abhay Gujjar.
The police from three states couldn't catch a glimpse of him,
and I am lucky to see him.
(Gujjar) I am the lucky one that the reincarnation of the Goddess
has personally come to see me.
You chose a nice place.
(Devi) The dead...
don't hear or speak.
That's why I find graveyards safe.
You are right.
Although the Badlands are nothing short of a graveyard.
I have
a small gift for you.
Please accept it.
Judging by my experiences, gifts can be dangerous.
(chuckles)
It's always given in exchange for something.
You are the king of the Badlands, and I am the queen of UP.
The time has come for the king and the queen to unite their powers.
To be honest...
politics and I don't see eye to eye.
People like you and I must stay connected to politics.
It could prove useful at any time.
So true.
We will give you political protection.
And you will help us to move our weapons
across the Bihar, MP and Orissa borders.
Glory to Baba.
Glory to Goddess Shaktirupa.
(eerie music)
(phone rings)
What is it, Barkhat?
What am I hearing about Varun?
Forget it. It's just drama.
Guruji, I have some solid information for you.
When you're done dealing with your personal mess, I'll tell you.
See you.
(dramatic music)
(melancholic music)
You knew exactly who I was and what kind of life I led from the very beginning.
And now you're finding faults with my job!
Dad was hardly ever around.
- What's your opinion about the case? - What happened that day?
I told you I am busy. Don't you get it? I can't come now.
(Poonam) Varun hasn't returned from school.
I looked everywhere, but I can't find him.
First the threatening calls and now this.
I am warning you...
If anything happens to my child, I will never forgive you.
(intense music)
Varun, get up.
Get up, son. I said get up. Let's go.
Where are we going, Mom?
To your grandpa's place.
I don't want to go.
Let's go. Wear your slippers.
(tense music)
Pappu, start the car.
- Poonam... - Grandpa!
Keep the luggage down. I'll talk to Avinash.
Not today, Father. I have reached my limit.
- I will talk to him. - I have tolerated enough.
- I'll not stop today. - I will talk to him...
No, Grandpa.
(Pappu) Give that to me.
Poonam...
Poonam, listen to me.
It's not wise to make hasty decisions.
Poonam.
Varun, tell your mother. Tell her, Varun.
I don't want to go.
(melancholic music)
Sir, I risked my life to get this important news.
That's why you are my favourite.
Sir, Devi has gone to finalise a weapons deal.
She is planning something big.
She also mentioned three states.
With whom?
Some gang in the Badlands.
There are several gangs in the Badlands.
(phone rings)
Yes, Father.
What you wanted has happened.
Poonam has left home.
Now... face the consequences.

- Are you mad? - Hey!
(Gujjar) Remove it.
Leave.
Okay.
If she's not willing, never force her!
Forgive me.
And when she is willing... don't let her go.
(scoffs)
I like your attitude.
Come to the Badlands. I'll make you a queen.
Dance only for me rather than dancing for all these people.
I don't go anywhere. People come to me.
But why don't you leave your name and address?
If I ever decide to visit, I'll drop by.
(all laugh)
Let's go, everyone.
(eerie music)
Abhay Gujjar. Address: Badlands.
Pick up the phone, Mr. Mishra.
What did you make?
Did you make an entire truck?
Great.
Can I ask you a question?
Will you give me an honest reply?
What happened at school the other day, son?
I'm telling the truth, Dad.
I heard noises coming from outside when I was in the toilet.
When I came out of the toilet, Nikhil was lying on the floor.
I got scared and ran away.
Oh. There-there.
Okay, son. Continue playing. I will go meet your mother.
(intense music)
Hands up!
Now that you've calmed down, can we go home?
Look... your anger was justified.
Varun is also my responsibility as much as he's yours.
I'll keep that in mind in the future.
I said I am sorry.
Should I fall on your feet?
You can do whatever you want.
You don't have to talk to me if you don't want to.
You can stay angry with me as long as you want.
But let's go home. Come on.
The day you quit your job
I will come home.
You know it's not just a job for me. You know everything.
(phone rings)
I won't come again to pacify you.

That's unexpected, Mr. Mishra.
You're up early.
You're quite cheerful this morning.
I hope I didn't sleep with you last night.
I assumed you'd sleep in after everything that went down.
Did anything happen last night?
Plenty happened...
and yet nothing at all.
Stop twisting your words.
Just tell me what happened.
Nothing much, Mr. Mishra.
Just that we slept in the same bed last night.
(Avinash clicks tongue, blows air)
Looks like I've ended up on the list of unfaithful.
How?
I broke my wife's trust.
Don't cry, Mr. Mishra.
I saved you.
How?
You were in my arms,
but you were chanting your wife's name.
You love your wife a lot.
Look, I am not lucky enough to get married.
But I can help you
with how to convince an upset wife.
I don't need your help with this.
Just tell me why you were calling.
What information do you have?
Whether it's food or love...
when you give away too much of it, they always take it for granted.
Again with your cryptic speech.
Leave it, Mr. Mishra.
Take the information instead.
He was here three days ago... Abhay Gujjar.
With his entire gang.
(intense music)
Our commander loves clarity.
That's why we are paying you the full amount in advance.
But your methods are still unclear to us.
We give you a guarantee instead.
We'll get the job done.
And what if you fail?
Let's cancel this deal if you don't trust us!
Do you know how I lost this arm?
I introduced a dealer before this.
He failed, and I had to pay the price.
Our commander never forgives any mistake
and never forgets a favour.
- Brother... - Hmm?
What's the update on the St. Simon's School murder case?
The investigation is underway.
It's really sad.
Crime has reached schools.
I hope it's not Avinash's son.
The team is on it.
Sir.
Avinash? At this early hour?
It was important, sir.
What have you done to yourself?
Come have breakfast first.
It's okay, sir.
Let me introduce you. Amrita Binoy Chaudhary.
I know her, sir.
I've been gaining experience listening to her criticisms.
(laughs)
Learning is a lifelong process.
You have much to learn.
Yes.
I keenly observe all your cases.
Of course.
Sir...
Hmm.
Okay.
Is the news confirmed?
Absolutely confirmed, sir.
Devi. Remember?
And Gujjar are planning something big.
Fine. I'll put a team on it in the Badlands.
Sir, I got the information. I'll go there.
How can you go?
Have you seen the state of your family?
Give them more time.
And you don't have to chase after everyone.
No, sir. He crossed my path.
(suspenseful music)
I will eliminate him, sir.
Don't be so relentless.
- No-- - Look...
Nandlal should not get credit for this.
Don't worry, sir.
Another thing, sir.
Ahalawat called Dasgupta before Babloo disappeared.
What?
Yes, sir.
The traitor has infiltrated too deep.
You handle Dasgupta, and I will deal with Nandlal.
(man) The file has been dispatched from the station.
I'll call you as soon as I receive it.
Yes. Right.
Okay.
Next target.
Abhay Gujjar!
Rathi.
Such a cold reaction?
What is city police going to do in the Badlands?
This is a job for the UP-MP border police. Let them handle it.
Do you want us to go and scavenge the Badlands?
Then why don't I call Samar sir and get you transferred?
Listen... listen to me. Always so hasty.
Try to understand.
How many days will we be gone for?
Maybe a week or two. Why does that matter?
A week or even two.
Sir, even Ms. Mamta is going on a two-week leave to attend a wedding.
Whose wedding?
- Her... - What?
...sister's wedding.
(laughing)
That's okay.
But what about Nandlal?
Don't worry about Nandlal sir.
(Avinash) He will be going on a bigger mission.
Boss... is Guruji around?
What do you want from him?
Why should I tell you?
You are his informant, aren't you?
Give me the information, and I will pass it on to him.
Since I made a deal with him. I'll tell him directly.
See you.
Did that offend you?
How about making a deal with me?
(Nandlal) Go ahead, Ahalawat.
Jai Hind, sir.
Sir, I've got my hands on a solid lead.
An important member of the party case, Guddu, is in Mumbai.
What do we do?
Is the news confirmed?
Hundred percent, sir.
All right, fine.
Here's what you do.
You and Kamlesh Sharma are leaving today for Mumbai with me.
Okay?
Greetings, Sheikh sir.
So how is university politics coming along?
Busy preparing the boys.
Any other information you wish to share?
No.
Any mess that you stirred up?
Mess?
Yes... nothing much.
We just roughed up Mishra's father. That's all.
That's all?
Yes, Sheikh sir.
I see every move one makes when they live in my shadow.
What you did with Avinash Mishra's wife...
How many times have I said not to take a single step without my permission?
Don't you get it?
What choice do I have?
Reading his name in the newspapers every day makes my blood boil.
Did that calm you down?
Did it or did it not?
Those who want real revenge don't resort to such cheap tricks.
I will remember that.
When will you come back?
I don't know.
Did you ask Poonam when she is coming home?
She will come back once she gets fed up with that place.
What if she doesn't get fed up?
Then she will stay there permanently.
I called her a hundred times and tried to convince her personally.
And it wasn't such a big deal anyway.
If she wants to stroke her ego, then let her.
(sentimental music)
Please eat your dinner. I'll have dinner outside.
(Avinash) Mr. Laxmikant, Tinny is engaged now.
There is a wedding in your house.
There will be dozens of chores in the house.
I will deal with Abhay Gujjar. Don't worry.
What are you saying, sir?
Even the police from three states couldn't do this job,
and we're going to get it done in the next 10 days, sir.
And you want me to stay at home?
No, sir. I will definitely take part in this action.
I'll have grandchildren tomorrow.
I need a story to tell them.
Their grandpa killed Bandit King Abhay Gujjar.
- Hey-- - I mean... you killed him, sir.
Please eat, sir.
Keep it.
What is this, sir?
It's a token for good fortune. Keep it.
We already have your blessings, sir.
This is from the entire team.
It will come in handy for the wedding.
Listen, this isn't just your family wedding.
It's mine too.
But, sir, I am managing. There is no need for this.
Technically, I should be giving you more, Mr. Laxmikant.
Unfortunately, I don't take bribes.
(laughs)
So be ready for Abhay Gujjar.
We will eliminate him.
Brother.
Where are you going without meeting me?
The bride has no time to meet me. What to do?
Sister is not picking up my calls, brother.
She isn't picking up my calls either.
I knew this was going to happen.
You never pay any attention to her.
Now, you don't start.
I come here to escape all this.
Why shouldn't I?
It's my wedding.
You two could have fought some other time.
Look, I tried my best. You should too.
Maybe she will listen to you.
I will convince her.
I wish I had the same confidence.
Let's go. I am temporary.
(laughs)
Take care.
(intriguing music)
BADLANDS
(intense music)
I hope he is from a wealthy family.
His brother has got wine shops.
He will pay in cash.
Take this. That's ₹50,000.
(upbeat music)
Sit.
