Hey! You can sit here.
Bless you, dear. May you live a long life.
Will you say it daily to me?
I'm warning you. Don't mess with me.
Or things will get ugly. I'm warning you.
Let go of my hand. It hurts.
Let go.
Or I'll show you what ugly really is.
Sit!
Not to me. To her.
Sir, ticket.
Yes!
Take 50 rupees.
Give me a cinema ticket.
And one plane ticket.
And one train ticket. That's three.
Give me a fourth ticket for anything.
Tell me where you're going.
Do I have to decide that too? Then why are you here?
What's the last stop?
Goa? Then give me a Goa ticket.
Okay?
Give me half!
Okay!
Milan.
Daya? What are you doing here…
Excuse me!
Where do you want to go?
Blood.
Who did this?
How did it happen?
Let's go and check him.
How did it happen?
'In a bus from Mumbai to Goa, '
'a police officer got attacked. The killer is on the run.'
I can't understand this, Abhijeet. What's going on?
One of our best, most honest officers are being targeted?
Who is he?
He fired in public, sir.
What is he trying to prove?
He wants to scare people.
He wants them to think we can't protect them.
They're being shot in broad daylight.
Sir, luckily, Milan sir survived.
Milan survived,
but this guy won't.
Abhijeet,
you spoke to the passengers on that bus, right?
Yes, sir, we questioned them.
'He was a very polite man.'
'He even gave me his seat.'
'Later, he offered me water from his bottle.'
'There was a deep cut on his face.'
'And his deep voice'
'was scary, but I didn't flinch.'
'Sir, my boyfriend and I were arguing.'
'He just got a bit aggressive.'
'But that man shouldn't have interfered.'
'After all, it was our personal matter.'
'Sir, he seemed mentally unstable.'
'When I asked for a ticket, '
'he laughed like a maniac.'
'I think he escaped from a mental hospital.'
'Please look into it.'
The passengers described four different personalities?
Yes, sir, but it's one man.
A master of disguise.
An impostor.
Abhijeet, he can be an impostor.
He's doing it on purpose,
so we can't recognise him.
But who is he?
Sir, the passenger list had 42 names.
But the local police found only 41.
Only 41?
Pankaj, the 42nd passenger.
He's the killer.
But sir, no one saw him get off the bus.
Abhijeet, when Milan was attacked,
Samar was in custody.
Samar couldn't have done it.
Then he's not involved
In the last four murders, either.
Because whoever this is,
he knows us inside and out.
He knows all the details.
He's from the inside, sir.
From the department.
He's a cop.
Whoever he is, Abhijeet,
we must catch him soon.
I can't see more officers die.
And whoever's behind this,
he can't do it alone.
He can't do it alone.
He has a partner.
What happened, Shreya? Is everything alright?
You called me here so urgently?
You said Milan was dead.
Yes, he should have died.
But don't worry. The bullet's stuck in his brain.
He can't remember anything or tell anyone.
He's in a vegetative state.
He's a living corpse forever.
But he's still alive.
Sir is alive,
but the bullet's still lodged here.
It controls decision-making, self-control, all that.
Can Milan recover?
Almost no chance.
He's still in a complete coma.
If doctors try to remove the bullet,
he could die.
One more thing, sir. When I compared
his injury with wounds from earlier killings,
-there was one thing in common. -What?
The wounds caused by the killer's bullets
contain tiny mercury particles.
That means the killer loaded mercury capsules
along with the bullets.
So the victim dies,
and no ballistic traces are left.
And such bullets don't make a sound.
So they're perfect
for firing in public.
Sir, we didn't find any shells in the bus.
Seems the killer took it with him to hide evidence.
The bullet is still stuck in Milan's brain,
so we can't match it to old cases.
I've heard of
mercury bullets before, sir.
In the 2018 DK Gang case, sir.
Where Samar's brother, Drivesh was killed.
And if he really was killed, there's his wife, too.
In a rage of revenge, people can do anything.
Could be.
Whatever it is, sir, he's among the police officers here.
And until he's caught, none of us is safe.
When I joined CID, I thought I'd be protecting the nation.
Now it's about protecting ourselves.
It's crucial that Inspector Milan regains consciousness, Abhijeet.
For now, he's the only link to reach the killer.
Shreya, don't stress, nothing will happen.
No one will be able to reach us.
You're taking this game far too lightly.
That Milan
who'd been sniffing around like a dog for months,
he was that close to exposing all the secrets.
Him staying alive is dangerous for us.
What secrets, Shreya?
By asking such questions,
you're weakening our bond.
You promised me
that you'd support me at every step.
And now, you're pushing me into a new mess.
If Milan regains consciousness,
he'll recognise you first.
And I'm not at all ready to lose you.
Please, do something.
All right, Shreya.
Don't worry. I'll look into it.
'No idea how many more officers will have to risk their lives.'
'Only then will ACP Pradyuman and his team truly wake up.'
'What's your opinion on this?'
'What difference does it make to the CID officers?'
'They sit comfortably in their offices giving orders for tea.'
'It's policemen like my husband who are on duty out there.'
'It's time for the CID team to resign and go home.'
Pankaj, never take the media too seriously.
Tomorrow, when we solve a case,
these same people will be putting garlands around our necks.
You're right, sir.
Now it's been so many years, I'm used to it.
Pankaj, do one thing. Go back and check everything
about our officers who were martyred.
Maybe something slipped past us.
Sir, let's keep an eye on Samar and his family as well, D's wife.
With strong contacts, crimes can be done even from jail.
Absolutely right.
-Sir! -Yes, Purvi.
Sir, Milan sir is safe in the ICU for now.
There are two security guards outside his room as well.
The security's so tight, no one's allowed inside without an ID.
That's good! But what's his condition?
Can he talk?
The doctors say it's unlikely.
Oh, no!
So Milan's not going to be of any help to us.
No idea which of our officers
is in the killer's crosshairs now.
DIG sir? What?
What happened to the DIG? Has he been attacked?
Where's DIG sir?
Sir, he's in the washroom.
Oh, so he's fine then. He's safe.
He's already gone ten times.
Why ten times?
Sir, are you alright?
You can see how I am, right?
This is bound to happen with CID around.
The killer has committed four murders and is roaming free.
Even the commissioner wasn't spared.
Now it's just our turn next.
What are you doing?
I'm closing the window. You never know where a bullet might come from.
Just look at the fear around here.
The media is shouting. Our department's reputation is at stake.
And you've got no lead on the case so far.
Sir, the attack on Inspector Milan is under full investigation.
It's happening at war footing, sir.
Our best officers are on it.
Not just the best, I want the best of the best.
-There's heavy pressure from Delhi. -What do you mean?
It means the high commission is sending their best ever.
-What? -SOS.
He'll take charge of this case.
And all of you will have to cooperate with him completely.
This isn't fair, sir.
Fair or not…
Sir, our best officers are on it. We'll get a lead soon.
An order is an order.
Cooperation means full cooperation.
You will have to cooperate.
Do you want to have tea or coffee?
No, sir.
And you, too, cut down on the tea and coffee, you're not well.
Let's go, Abhijeet.
Tea… No!
Are you the pantry boy? Do you know how to make tea?
Sir, I make it every day. First, I pour milk into the pot, then…
From today, as long as I'm here,
forget about milk, sugar, spices, coriander,
garlic, chillies and everything.
This is the box.
Keep it safe.
Look at this.
It contains six kinds of organic tea leaves.
Sir, you really like tea that much?
Look, blood creates bonds,
but tea connects people.
And organic tea
makes those bonds organic.
Oh, wow!
So, the great CID team
is gathered here brewing their theories.
Like bitter, weak,
overly boiled tea.
Just a minute. Who are you?
Hasn't it reached you yet?
I've come from Delhi.
Sir!
When a case
goes beyond a team's control,
they call SOS
in that emergency.
That means me.
Sir!
You know what kind of tea I drink, right? With milk.
I told him not to.
It's the age of adulteration, where do you even get pure milk?
More water, less milk.
Such tea is bad for health.
This is organic tea.
Organic tea opens up
the brain's lock.
Before one even leaves, the other shows up.
Oh!
Did you say something just now?
The tea
looks good.
It's organic.
Come on, give me my tea.
Get going.
By now, you all must have figured out that
Samar is not the suspect.
The real killer is breathing freely out in the open.
Or maybe
among us.
What did you say?
Are you doubting my team?
I only trust my tea.
But only after its leaves are properly brewed.
In this case, I don't consider anyone as my own.
I'll question each one of you.
No matter how senior a police officer, they are.
So let's start from the beginning.
had fallen from there.
Right here.
It was instant death.
And those kids saw it happen.
Kids!
-What's your name? -Rahul.
Rahul!
-And yours? -Arohi.
Arohi. Amazing!
You saw what happened here, right?
Will you tell us what happened?
Why are you scared? Go on, tell us.
Why are you so scared, kid? What happened?
Daya, why is this girl scared of you?
Oh, really?
Sir,
they're kids, they get scared when they see police officers.
I'm not scared. I'll become a police officer when I grow up.
There you go. Well done!
Why are you still scared? Look at them.
Arohi.
Have you
seen this uncle before?
Dear.
The day Uncle Rane fell from up there,
this uncle had come too.
Well done, dear! Kids have an amazing memory.
Sir, we had come for the investigation.
That's what she's referring to.
-Oh! -Right?
Sir, this uncle came twice.
He came twice?
He came again?
He must've come again, dear. In such cases, we have to come again.
Sometimes we have to visit twice or thrice.
But next time when Daya sir comes, don't be scared. He's very nice.
They're kids, sir.
Daya, you go back to the bureau.
I'll revisit the crime scene with Pankaj and Purvi.
The thing is, people get scared when they see you.
Only the guilty get scared, sir.
But we're not here to scare the culprit.
We have to grab him smartly from the collar.
Sir!
Oh, wow! Daya!
Your bike is excellent.
Impressive!
Even the tyres are different.
How much mileage does it give?
I've never checked, sir.
See you.
Some are too sweet, some too bitter.
But the most important thing is timing.
If it's overboiled, it's ruined. Totally gone!
Sir, I prefer a bit of sweet tea.
I'm not talking about tea, I'm talking about her.
As a senior inspector, Pranali
ran after a petty thief.
The timing isn't working out, is it?
Sir, a criminal is a criminal.
Be it a petty thief or a big gangster,
the police must catch them.
Well said!
Sir, the thief you're talking about. he's just a pickpocket.
He doesn't have the brains to plan such a murder.
Which means the killer is clever.
They used the situation to their advantage.
You were the first to reach the crime scene, right?
No, sir, Daya sir reached first.
Daya is like the first cup of tea in the morning.
Always first everywhere.
Let's heat the memory of that petty pickpocket.
-Maybe something big comes out. -Sir.
Even if he's a thief, sir,
I really tried to save the inspector ma'am that day.
I faced him alone.
But that man was powerful.
It'd take four or five men to handle him.
He was like that.
Did you see his face?
No, sir. I didn't see the face.
But he was tall, broad, really well-built, sir.
He was about six feet.
-Six-footer? -Like a bodybuilder.
-Muscular. -Yes, sir, muscular.
Six-footer. Muscular.
There are some like that
even in CID, right?
Aren't there, Purvi?
A great person once said,
'If tea and passion come together, '
'a man can do anything.'
Amazing, sir. Who said this?
Ghalib or Shakespeare?
I said it in the bathroom this morning, while bathing.
-Tea? -No, sorry, sir.
Pankaj, how long till we reach the station?
Sir, two to three hours.
That means when the blast happened at Saya's house,
it must've taken you three hours too, right?
No, sir, it took four hours that day.
-Sir, the whole highway was jammed. -Alright.
But Daya sir reached first.
Daya got there first again, to cut the ribbon?
No, sir. Actually, Daya sir was in Mumbra.
He was investigating a cold case nearby, sir.
So he reached quickly.
Oh!
Pankaj, turn the car around.
Turn it.
We're heading to the bureau.
Let's discuss a few things over tea with Samar.
Purvi, get Samar transferred from jail to the bureau.
But sir, the evidence is here…
What happened? Still upset?
Whenever you call me here, it means there's trouble.
What is it this time?
That SOS.
Samar's case is being reopened.
All the evidence against him will be reviewed again.
What can I do about this?
You know what to do.
You want me to kill Samar?
You understand everything I mean without me saying it.
That's why you're perfect for me.
How many more will I have to kill, Shreya?
Do you remember what you said
when we first met?
I'd set the world on fire for you, Shreya.
That's exactly what you need to do.
I repeat, we'll reach the bureau in 20 minutes.
Why did you stop the car?
Shyam, come and help me.
Abhishek, Basant, come quickly!
Sir, Samar…
He died too?
Sir, let's go, we need to head there.
Pankaj, wait!
What's the rush?
We'll go later.
Your Daya sir must already be there.
At the crime scene, before anyone else,
like the first morning tea.
Yes!
CID's bolt!
You're always first?
Sir, the body is inside.
Sir,
you said Daya sir would be the first to reach the crime scene,
and he actually reached first.
Have you done some astrology course or something?
Pankaj, don't forget. I'm a cop too,
who really enjoys tea.
Not a tea-seller
wandering around in a police uniform.
I'm always focused on my duty.
So you stick to yours.
Sir,
we've found this bullet shell.
Looks like it's from a professional killer's 9mm.
Daya,
isn't this funny?
You're always the first at the crime scene.
But you never stop the murder from happening.
Sir, I'm not addicted to tea like you.
So maybe I'm not that focused.
Yes!
Otherwise, even you would've noticed
that all the bullets fired
were from the same
police officer's service gun.
Sir, maybe the killer planted this to mislead us.
Sir, the CID team is like a family.
We give our lives for our officers, not take them.
I never said the whole team is involved.
Just one corrupt cop
has dared to go against the system.
Sir, why are you making the tea? Let me do it.
My hands…
Pankaj, I'm really happy today.
You know, when I'm really happy,
I make tea myself.
And one more thing.
Your smartphone's gotten pretty smart.
Didn't you notice? Let me show you. Give me your phone.
I'll show you. Look.
This phone chat with Daya's phone more than
people chat over a cup of tea.
-Sir! -Sir!
Now, no more chatting.
You see, evidence is
like ginger in tea, very special.
Even a tiny change
ruins the whole flavour.
Sir, sorry, but how many times will people keep coming to investigate?
Every time, someone comes to this bus for investigation.
Who came first?
Sir, it was Daya sir.
Sir, he came here before you.
He was examining the evidence.
Did he find anything?
No, sir. But he kept checking this seat again and again.
But he didn't find anything.
After firing, bullet shells scatter around.
Only a real cop can find them.
Samar was shot,
his shell was like this, too, right?
Samar and Milan were shot with a Glock 17 model.
And as per records, coincidentally,
you also had this model
issued by the department.
It must be fake, sir.
-I never… -Don't lie, Purvi.
Either you handed the gun to Daya,
or you committed the murder.
Sir, why don't you call Daya sir?
He'll answer all your questions.
You can't doubt us just because of one bullet shell, can you?
Now you're upset.
And correct!
For solid proof, I need the entire bullet.
That bullet is stuck in Milan's brain.
We can't remove it.
Because that's what's keeping Milan alive.
-Now what, sir? -Now we'll drink tea.
Because that's what's kept us alive so far.
-Let's go. -And Daya sir?
Where will he run off to?
I can find him whenever I want.
'You said Daya sir will always reach the crime scene first.'
'And he actually reached.'
'Have you done some astrology course or something?'
Not astrology,
SOS is a fraudster.
Shreya?
Shift change, sir. Need to take the patient's vitals.
Sir, speak quickly.
The patient is absolutely fine.
He'll sleep through the night. You two get some rest, too.
Sir, drink more water.
Your skin reveals how dehydrated your body is.
Alright?
Shreya, what did you do?
The very thing you couldn't do.
I've sent Inspector Milan to meet the almighty.
Shreya, have you lost your mind?
That SOS has a tracker on me.
He'll know I was here.
Then run from here.
Or will you stay for Milan's last rites, too?
Shreya! you stay for Milan's last rites, too?
