'He's been dead for six hours.'
'That means the killer is dead.'
'And we need to find the one who's going to die.'
'In 72 hours, so it's slow poison.'
'The poison used here isn't something you get easily.'
'If it were, we'd have seen traces'
'in our tests by now.'
'I've asked someone for help.'
- 'Who? - An expert.'
'Salunkhe.'
'I haven't forgotten how many lives were lost because of you.'
'But I'm here today to save a life.'
'You're not Dr Salunkhe.'
[gasps]
'Dr Salunkhe'
'never forgets the name of a drug.'
'If that man isn't Salunkhe, '
'where is the real one?'
[slaps]
[dramatic music playing]
Where's Salunkhe?
You came to do what even
this capable officer couldn't, ACP?
[chuckles]
I asked you where Salunkhe is.
I am Salunkhe! I am!
How many times should I say it?
I am!
What do you want to know? Tell me.
I asked where Barbosa
is hiding Salunkhe.
Salunkhe is dead. He is dead.
Barbosa killed your Dr Salunkhe.
[slaps]
[dramatic music playing]
Barbosa hasn't killed Salunkhe.
Salunkhe is alive.
If Barbosa had killed him,
he would have shouted it to the world
that he killed Salunkhe.
He would've hung
Salunkhe's body
from our CID flagpost like a flag.
Salunkhe is alive.
Now tell me,
where is he?
[chuckles]
Wow, ACP! You solved the case in two minutes.
Then use that same brain and speed
to find Salunkhe if you can.
[chuckles]
Abhijeet,
this one's just a pawn of Barbosa.
He knows nothing.
[chuckles]
Find out who all visited
this fake Salunkhe.
[suspenseful music playing]
How much longer?
Do we have to lie here
till the 72 hours are over?
Doctor, this place and these monitors remind me of the poison.
The one given to one of us, we don't know who.
Pranjali, one of your lives is in danger.
And it's either of you,
because both of you met Sarthak recently.
Yes, Tarika, what's the update on both of them?
Sir, both Pranjali and Trilok are stable.
And we're ready for any emergency.
IV drips, cardiac monitors, emergency protocols,
everything's prepped.
- Any breakthrough on the poison? - No.
There's just one hope, Dr Salunkhe.
Salunkhe.
We're all missing him.
I'm waiting for him, too.
In the meantime, Tarika, do one thing.
Run all of Raman's tests again.
Maybe we missed something.
Also, gather all antidotes and antivenoms
and keep them ready.
As long as we're here,
no innocent life should be lost.
Sir!
We've got a list of everyone who met
the fake Dr Salunkhe in jail
over the past two months.
You're on that list, too, sir.
Yes, Sachin, I went multiple times.
Because my heart always told me,
Salunkhe could never betray CID.
He could never betray us.
And today, I was proven right.
Sir, Dr Tarika and Gargi also visited him once each.
And they confirmed that.
And after that, Daya sir.
- Daya? - Yes, sir.
Daya sir visited him three days ago.
His name's in the register, too.
Three days ago?
How's that possible?
Daya's been out of the city on a case for a week.
How was that even possible?
Daya went to meet Salunkhe?
Abhijeet,
find out
who this fake Daya is
who met the fake Salunkhe.
Look at the visitor entry.
Check the date and the name.
- CID Inspector Daya. - Yes, sir.
It's written there. That means he came.
Sir, we don't let anyone in without checking their identity.
So you're saying Inspector Daya really came here?
That's exactly what I'm saying, sir.
If his name's written, he must have come.
Inspector, Daya has been out of Mumbai for the past five days.
He's on duty elsewhere.
And you're saying Daya came here!
- You made this entry, right? - Yes, sir.
When checking the identity card, do you look at the person's face?
Yes, sir. I was on duty. IDs are checked at the gate, too.
Do you just check the ID or actually verify it?
Do you know how to tell
a real ID from a fake one?
Can you recognise who's fake and who's not?
No, shaking your head won't help.
I need answers right now.
If anyone can walk into jail with a fake ID,
what if something major happens next time?
Is there any safety protocol here or not?
No verification, no facial scan?
Is this a public park or a jail?
[suspenseful music playing]
[clank sound]
[suspenseful music playing]
[gasps]
[suspenseful music playing]
And you! Don't shrug it off.
You're just as responsible.
I want CCTV footage of the last seven days from this jail, now.
- Yes, sir. - Sir!
There's been a fight inside. One man's been stabbed
and taken to the infirmary. Please come quickly, sir.
[suspenseful music playing]
It's him, the fake Salunkhe.
We just met him. How did this happen?
He's an inmate. These kinds of fights keep happening here.
Who hit him?
He's sitting outside, sir.
He stole a police uniform and attacked him in the lock-up.
[suspenseful music playing]
Let me inform ACP sir.
Did you kill him?
Yeah, why? Is he your relative?
Answer what you're asked, not more. Got it? Why did you kill him?
Contract, sir. Got paid for it.
Bit of business while locked up.
Who gave you the contract?
No one gives out hits just like that.
There's always an exchange between who gives and who takes.
No names, no faces.
Sir, the fake Salunkhe is dead.
- Another inmate murdered him. - It was bound to happen.
Barbosa's men are everywhere.
The moment they realised
his cover was blown,
they finished him.
Now we need to track this fake Daya
quickly.
Otherwise, they'll kill him too.
I already told you, I'm not afraid of anything.
Why are you doing all this?
You're making us lie here for no reason.
Raman, you're responsible for this.
This is all happening because of you.
Oh, really? So I was the only one who voted against Sarthak?
Weren't you all involved, too?
Sometimes, you have to get your hands dirty in business.
I wasn't the only one who got their hands dirty.
He trusted you the most.
He died because of you.
Now everyone's life is at risk.
He didn't just take revenge,
he left us a message.
He showed us
how painful waiting for death can be.
Pranjali, if I were in Sarthak's place,
I might have done the same.
Business needs a cool mind,
sharp thinking, and firm decisions.
Not with sentiments.
We had two options.
Either save ourselves and the company,
or sink with Sarthak.
[exhales]
I'm not the kind to cry over Sarthak's death.
I know.
I know you won't shed a tear for him.
That's exactly why he planned to kill you.
Because he knew what kind of man you are.
What kind of man am I?
You're a traitor. A backstabber.
But why only me?
You voted against him, too, right?
Trilok, you voted against him, too.
So maybe he'll take revenge on you too.
Why are you blaming just me?
Raman's right.
We're all responsible for Sarthak's death.
That's why everyone should be punished.
[chokes up]
- Mr Trilok! - Trilok!
Mr Trilok!
- Mr Trilok! - One second!
Gargi, call an ambulance.
Let's go!
- Mr Trilok! - Hello?
Keep the ambulance ready. Quick!
[suspenseful music playing]
This is Daya.
This woman came here posing as Daya?
Did you check the photo on the ID? Did you read the name?
You don't know CID Inspector Daya?
Once you see Daya, you never forget him.
What duty are you even doing?
Sir, I came from Punjab just a few weeks ago.
I'm from Mishriwala. Everything here is new to me.
I don't even know what CID is.
At least, you know the difference between a man and a woman, right?
That's the same in Punjab and Mumbai.
Are you hiding something? Were you involved, too?
Let me ask you something. You don't know about CID, fine.
But you know what responsibilities come with being a guard, right?
You know who should be let in and who shouldn't?
Do you even know what 'guard' means?
The safety and responsibility of this entire jail is in your hands.
Sir, I'll check. I'll get him suspended.
Don't put your responsibility on him, understood?
An enquiry will be made on both of you.
Whoever is guilty will be punished.
Whether it's a guard or a senior officer.
- Sorry, sir. Please. - Play it once.
[keyboard clicks]
Pause it.
She's getting into a taxi.
Zoom in on the number.
M805
VR 2514.
[suspenseful music playing]
[traffic sound]
Excuse me, who's the driver of this taxi?
It's me, sir.
We're from CID.
Take a good look at this photo.
Did you pick this lady up from jail two days ago?
Yes, sir, she sat in my taxi.
Where did you drop her?
It was some school.
Saitan Sophiya School, sir.
[knocking on the gate]
Who's there this late at night?
[gate opens]
[gate squeaks open]
What took you so long? We're from CID.
Sir...
Have a look at this photo.
Do you recognise her?
Two days ago, a taxi dropped her right in front of this school.
Yes, sir, this is Sanjana ma'am from our school.
She teaches life skills.
Where does she live? Do you have her number?
No, sir, I don't have her number.
But Prakash sir does, he's our admin head.
You can get Sanjana ma'am's number from him.
Give me the number.
[suspenseful music playing]
[phone rings]
- Yes, sir. - Abhijeet,
do we have anything on this fake Daya?
Sir, she's a woman who posed as Daya and entered the jail.
What?
We have her address.
Her name is Sanjana. She's a school teacher.
Is the fake Daya a school teacher?
Abhijeet, what's going on?
This is serious.
What's a schoolteacher got to do with Salunkhe's kidnapping?
No!
We need to find her. We must protect her, Abhijeet.
Okay, sir. We're on the way.
Sir, there's an emergency! Trilok has collapsed.
He's collapsed?
This is what we were waiting for, right?
Sarthak's poison has started showing its effects.
Oh, god!
This is the first time I've seen death this close.
The spike is visible on the monitor.
Doctor, please help.
Tarika, what happened?
- Did you call the ambulance? - Yes, sir.
- Get him to the hospital, quick. - Come.
Mr Trilok!
[sobs]
Please calm down.
Please calm down. Sit!
[sniffles]
Don't stress, it's fine.
[sniffles]
[suspenseful music playing]
[intense music playing]
Sir!
Looks like a suicide case to me.
This isn't suicide.
It's a murder. A planned murder.
We were too late.
The killer did the job and left.
[suspenseful music playing]
[rustling sound]
[suspenseful music playing]
Sachin.
Yes, sir.
This photo was hidden
inside the cube box.
Seems like it was planted there on purpose to challenge us.
We'll need to figure out who this person is.
Looks like he left us a clue about where he is.
Look at this, Special Care Hospital.
This is the admission report.
The patient's name is Ankit, aged 72.
Ankit!
[footsteps approaching]
Ma'am, Abhijeet sir sent this.
[suspenseful music playing]
[beep sound]
[case clicks open]
[suspenseful music playing]
[case door closes]
[music fades]
[suspenseful music playing]
Don't worry, Mr Trilok. You just had a panic attack.
It was triggered by excessive stress. You're stable now.
But we'll keep you under observation for a while.
Until we can rule out the possibility of poisoning.
- Okay? - Thank you.
Take care.
[beeping sound]
Maybe this was my punishment.
As the deeds, so the return.
Sarthak respected me a lot.
He treated me like a mentor.
But when he needed me,
when he needed my support,
at that time
I pulled my hand back.
We were all guilty,
including me.
But what Sarthak did was also wrong.
No reason is enough to justify a murder.
[inhales sharply]
[soft footsteps]
Excuse me, ma'am! Just a moment.
Take a look at this photo. Is this patient admitted to your hospital?
Yes, this is Dr Ankit.
Dr Ankit?
He is a well-known forensic expert.
Haven't you heard of him?
He's done major work in biochemical residue mapping.
And he's published several research papers, too.
Then one day, he suddenly vanished. No one knew where he went.
Then who brought him here to the hospital?
I mean, who admitted him?
His daughter.
- What was her name? - Sanjana?
Yes, Sanjana. She brought him here.
He's been admitted here for three months now.
We've done tests, but still haven't reached a diagnosis.
Can we meet him?
[claps twice sharply]
Dr Ankit?
[snaps fingers]
Dr Ankit?
[suspenseful music playing]
Sir, did you see that?
Sir!
Yes.
Sir, Mr Trilok has regained consciousness.
He had a panic attack.
He's completely out of danger now.
However, we still haven't detected the poison.
Only 30 hours are left.
If the poison isn't identified,
one of them will die...
[phone rings]
Yes, Abhijeet.
Sir, we reached Sanjana's place, the one posing as fake Daya.
But we were a little late.
She was murdered before we got there.
My god!
Sir, we found a few clues when we searched the place.
We are at the Special Care hospital to investigate further, sir.
His father is admitted in this hospital.
He is a well-known forensics expert.
Dr Ankit.
What did you say? What is his name? Dr Ankit?
Yes, sir. He has been here for three months.
He is in an unconscious state.
Abhijeet, I know Dr Ankit very well.
He is a brilliant forensics expert.
I worked with him on a few cases. I took his help with a few cases.
The doctors at this hospital said the same thing about him.
This is quite weird.
We were looking for Dr Salunkhe.
But we found someone else in the process.
Someone who is equally brilliant forensics expert, Dr Ankit.
This cannot be a coincidence.
- I will come and meet Dr Ankit. - Sir.
Dr Ankit, this is ACP Pradyuman.
Can you hear me?
Dr Ankit.
Do you remember Dr Salunkhe?
Dr Salunkhe.
You studied Forensic Medicine together.
Dr Ankit.
Your friend, Dr Salunkhe is missing right now.
We don't know where he is.
Did your daughter, Sanjana, tell you anything about Dr Salunkhe?
Did she mention Dr Salunkhe?
[intense music playing]
Dr Ankit, I am saddened to inform this.
Your daughter, Sanjana.
She is no longer in this world.
She passed away.
We think there is a possibility.
Sanjana and Salunkhe's disappearance are interlinked in some way.
[intense music]
Tears, sir.
Yes.
He can listen to us.
Dr Ankit.
Can you hear me?
If you can, let us know.
Blink twice to say yes.
He is listening to us, sir.
Abhijeet.
Sir.
Dr Ankit, if you know anything about Dr Salunkhe...
Anything about his whereabouts.
We will show you a few letters.
You can blink when you want to say that alphabet.
It might help us reach his location.
Okay, sir?
Look at this. A.
[thrilling music playing]
E, sir.
N. N, sir.
[thrilling music playing]
We are out of the alphabet.
EN?
What could it be?
EN.
NE.
North East, sir. Could he be there?
Maybe.
There is a possibility.
Coordinates? Abhijeet.
Let's show him numbers.
Sir.
Dr Ankit, we are going to show you a few numbers now.
Let us know if you recognise anything.
Look at this.
[intense music playing]
One.
[intense music playing]
Nine, sir.
19.
Let me repeat, sir.
One, sir.
Yes, sir. Nine.
Seven.
19197.
Sir, coordinates have six numbers.
Let me show him one more time.
- Three. - Three.
[intense music playing]
Abhijeet, these are coordinates.
EN191973.
[intense music playing]
Check the coordinates.
[intense music playing]
[footsteps approaching]
[intense music playing]
Are we at the right place?
The location tracking ends here.
Let's check around.
[footsteps preceding]
[footsteps approaching]
[intense music playing]
[footsteps approaching]
[hollow thud]
[intense music playing]
[metal plank creaks under foot]
Sachin.
This doesn't feel right.
Yes, sir.
[stomps on ground]
[intense music playing]
[metal plank creaks]
Basement?
Sir, this could be a trap.
There is a possibility.
Whatever it is, we will have to deal with it.
Be careful, sir.
[intense music playing]
[footsteps approaching]
[intense music playing]
[gunshots blaring]
[body thuds]
[intense music playing]
[footsteps preceding]
[intense music playing]
[phone ringing]
Let them come inside.
We are not ready to face CID yet.
[footsteps approaching]
[intense music playing]
[van door handle rattles]
[man groans]
I... I...
I...
I didn't kill Pradyuman.
Dr Salunkhe?
Dr Salunkhe!
- Dr Salunkhe! - Dr Salunkhe!
- I didn't kill Pradyuman. - Dr Salunkhe!
[intense music playing]
[newspaper tearing]
Pradyuman is my friend.
Dr Salunkhe!
Sachin, move back.
[gunshot hits the van lock]
[van back door opens]
Dr Salunkhe!
[Salunkhe groans]
- Dr Salunkhe! Oh god! - I didn't kill Pradyuman.
- Dr Salunkhe! Dr Salunkhe! - I didn't kill Pradyuman.
- No! No! I didn't! I didn't kill him! - Dr Salunkhe! Dr Salunkhe!
- Sir, you... - I didn't kill Pradyuman.
- Sir, come out. Please come. - Pradyuman is my friend.
- Dr Salunkhe, are you alright? - I didn't kill Pradyuman.
Yes, sir. You didn't kill him. We know that.
- Step outside, sir. Please. - Dr Salunkhe, come out.
- Be careful. Be careful. - I didn't kill Pradyuman.
- Dr Salunkhe, I know. - Yes, you didn't kill him.
- Dr Salunkhe. - I didn't kill Pradyuman.
We know that. We know that. You didn't kill Pradyuman sir.
Pradyuman sir is alive.
Do you know Pradyuman?
What? Sir, I am Abhijeet.
- Abhijeet? - I am Sachin.
Pradyuman is my friend. I didn't kill him.
- I didn't kill him. - Sir, I think
- he has been drugged heavily. - I didn't kill him.
He is disoriented.
- Dr Salunkhe, get up. - I didn't kill him.
Everything will be fine. Come with us.
Now you are completely fine, Dr Salunkhe.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Sir, it must be so tough.
Salunkhe, this is brilliant.
You look great.
Tell me something.
Have you been consuming drugs since you have been away from CID?
Were you selling drugs?
No, I mean, I saw your reports.
There are all sorts of drugs in your body, am I right?
That's why I had to ask.
- What? - Pradyuman, you...
You are alive.
You are not dead.
Why would I die?
Look, Salunkhe. In this world
sinners will die sooner. Or else
they get kidnapped for months.
I understood.
I now know you are Pradyuman.
Let's save the chit-chat for later.
This is the file. Check it right away.
Come with us. We have to save someone's life.
Okay? Make it fast.
- Pradyuman. - What?
No. Let it be.
Enough of these emotions. Get to work.
Make it fast.
[intense music playing]
[forensic equipment whirring]
[intense music playing]
[thrilling music playing]
Got it!
- Sir, did you find the poison? - No.
Actually, this cannot be called a poison in chemical terms, Tarika.
It is something that's acceptable.
This is legal.
But if this particular chemical
is given to someone in small doses, it is harmless.
But when the same chemical
piles up gradually over time in someone's body.
It will be fatal.
It could kill someone.
72-hour ultimatum.
What we are left with is
5 hours 32 minutes.
How was this given to the person, sir?
Gargi, the person who has been given this chemical
will come to us very soon.
Who is that?
Raman.
Me? Impossible.
I haven't seen him in three months.
Did he give me a dose of the poison in my sleep or my dreams?
Not in your dreams.
Mr Raman, there was someone in your house
who was doing the deed.
Who?
Your servant right here.
Pritam? You?
This is not Pritam.
This is Munnu.
Am I right, Munnu?
Sarthak put him in your house.
He sent him to your house to pretend to be Pritam.
Sarthak was right.
He killed you long ago.
What?
- Yes. - How?
Your evening cup of tea.
He used to put small doses of slow poison in your cup of tea.
Why would he do that?
Why would he listen to Sarthak?
Money. Greed.
Sarthak rewrote his will.
He gave everything to Munnu.
Am I right, Munnu?
Yes, sir. I did everything.
I was greedy.
Sarthak said no one would find out about this poison.
He said it would simply look like a sudden death.
That's why I came to your house as your servant.
And...
Every evening, when you ask for tea...
Mr Raman, no!
[Raman grunts]
- Mr Raman! Mr Raman! - Raman!
- Mr Raman! - Raman!
- What happened?
Mr Raman!
I made an antidote for this poison.
Demicoporol.
This is a chelating agent.
Consider this the strongest antidote.
It will trap the poison in his body.
It will squish it away.
All the poison in his body
will lose its effect.
[thrilling music playing]
The damage has been done to his body.
Moving forward, this will not affect him.
[intense music playing]
[soft music playing]
It would be wrong to say you are lucky.
But yes.
CID was with you.
Dr Salunkhe was with you.
That's why you are alive.
You have done everything just for a company.
Now the very same company's boardroom
will vote against you.
I don't think
no one wants you to be the CEO.
[soft music playing]
I am telling the truth.
Abhijeet, tell him.
With this case, we all thought
we would lose time and lose the case.
Correct, sir.
We tried our best. But...
Dr Salunkhe is the best.
[Salunkhe laughs]
Abhijeet, I don't know why I feel like...
[soft music playing]
Is this Salunkhe
real or fake?
Sir.
Let's pull his beard and find out.
[Kritika laughs]
My beard could be fake.
But Salunkhe is 100% real.
Sir, the beard is real as well.
When you were unconscious, we pulled your beard to check.
[everyone laughs]
Sir, I have a question.
Sir, Raman is alive. Sarthak is dead.
Why was Sarthak punished?
Bhoomi.
Sarthak had an opportunity to fight with his partner.
But he chose the wrong path.
Suicide is not a solution to any problem.
A person has to fight their wars at any cost.
You are right, sir.
Anyway, forget about that.
Dr Salunkhe.
Sorry.
- Say it again. - Sorry.
- I can't hear you. Say that again. - Hey!
Don't act too smart.
This is it.
This is the real Pradyuman.
What do you mean by 'sorry'?
Listen, go home and get some rest.
Why?
You have to get back to work tomorrow. Not today.
Abhijeet, drop him at his home.
Keep an eye on him.
You might fall back into the habit of drugs.
Come on, sir. Let's go.
Listen.
I will come and meet you in the evening.
I will keep the fritters ready. Come.
[Salunkhe laughs]
[soft instrument playing]
[car comes to a stop]
Get some rest, sir.
Don't read the research papers all night long.
No, Abhijeet.
I will sleep on my own bed peacefully tonight.
Salunkhe will fall asleep.
- Good night, sir. - Good night.
Call me if you need anything.
I always sleep in alert mode.
I won't need anything. But thanks for offering.
Bye.
[car door closes]
[gate opens]
[soft music playing]
[intense music playing]
