Whose birthday is it?
It's kept in the locker?
Who's the romantic guy in our serious bureau?
What?
There's only one romantic guy here,
romance runs in his blood.
Who, Sir?
Abhijeet. Who else? It's his handwriting?
Oh! It was in the locker.
What handwriting? Whose are you talking about?
This one, Sir. Does this have chocolate inside?
Pankaj, chocolate is for
school and college kids, for their kind of romance.
Smart people
just propose with jewelry!
Right, Abhijeet?
Smart people also respect others' privacy.
-What are you doing, Pankaj? -Sir.
Don't touch it.
Yes, Purvi.
Where?
Okay!
A body's been found in the fishing village in Vasai. We'll have to go.
Any identification?
No, Sir, not yet.
Who saw the body first?
Some kids were playing cricket. They were the first to spot it.
They got pretty scared.
Any idea about the body, Dr. Tarika?
The body's been in water for over 40 hours.
The skin has started peeling.
Fungus has also started forming on the face.
So no fingerprints, no facial ID?
Are these burn marks?
Yes, those are burn marks.
Like a high-voltage shock injury.
So he died from an electric jolt?
It's possible. But I can confirm only after the post-mortem.
But we'll have to move quickly.
The more time we waste, the harder it'll be to find evidence.
Pankaj,
arrange for the body to be sent to the forensic lab, okay?
Purvi,
get a team together.
Question the villagers and locals.
See if anyone noticed anything strange.
Yes.
We questioned everyone in the area. But found nothing.
Oh, no!
Any missing report?
No, Sir.
No one from the nearby area is missing. Nor any of their relatives.
And no one saw anything, Sir.
There's no clue to give us a lead on the killer.
What about CCTV cameras outside the shops on the road?
Sir, there aren't any cameras installed there.
Oh!
Daya,
only forensics can tell us what really happened.
Hello, Dr. Tarika.
Actually,
when I saw it,
I thought it would suit you.
-What? -I mean…
-This… -Abhijeet?
Yes, sir, I came to get info on the body.
So, what did you find out?
Dr. Tarika told me…
Go ahead, tell us what you just told me.
Please say.
Sir,
DNA confirms
the man was between 38 to 40 years old.
He died of a heart attack.
And the burn marks
on his neck,
is from high-voltage electricity, likely from a stun gun.
Stun gun? You mean a taser was used?
Any idea about the time of death?
Yes, around 50 hours ago.
Any way to identify him?
Dental records, medical scans?
-Yes, we're checking the scans. -Listen.
No need to dig into all that.
A taser doesn't cause a heart attack unless
the person already had a heart condition.
So, he was a heart patient?
Exactly! He was a heart patient.
And you know what I found during the post-mortem,
-when I examined his heart? -What?
Lost love.
A stent. A metallic stent.
Sir, the kind used during heart surgery?
Exactly, Purvi.
He must've had it during the angioplasty.
And look here,
on the stent there's a serial number.
Salunkhe,
this stent number should tell us which hospital used it
and who it was used on, right?
Already done, boss.
Heart surgery was done
at the City Hospital, a stent was implanted two and a half years ago.
-What's the name? -Chandrashekhar.
He was 37 during the operation.
Here you go.
This file has everything.
His name, address, ID proofs, everything.
Great job, Salunkhe!
Feels good seeing you two work together after so many years.
Chandrashekhar.
Dead for 50 hours,
and not a single missing report.
No one missed him. Why?
What's up, Abhijeet? Why are you grinning to yourself?
Oh, nothing.
Just remembered an old joke.
A joke?
Can I ask you something?
Go ahead, who can stop you?
That gift you hid in the locker, is that for Dr. Tarika?
What? What are you saying? I was actually…
Are you dodging the question now?
You stand tall before a gun
but melt into a kitten
in front of Tarika.
What is this, Abhijeet? Be a man!
Just tell her how you feel.
You know, doctors usually marry within their field, right?
You'll just be left watching.
Is that advice or a warning?
Not a warning.
Just telling you the truth. Right?
So go on, say something soon.
Or else…
Yeah, I will.
I will do it.
First, let's do what we came here for.
We're almost there.
Looks like the place is empty.
Looks like someone was searching for something.
Hey! Who's inside? Come out!
Sir, I told you, some people broke in to steal.
Come out!
Yes.
Yes, that's them!
They're the ones! Catch them!
Who are you people?
-We're from CID. -CID?
Then I'm from the FBI.
Oh!
Sorry, Sir. Jai Hind, Sir.
Sir, he called me here.
He told me some people went in to rob the place.
Sir, I'm a responsible citizen.
If you hit me like this, I'll file a complaint.
You fool!
Let him go.
Do you know anything about Chandrashekhar, who lived here?
Yes, sir. He was my neighbor. Why?
We're investigating his murder.
Murder?
But didn't he die in a plane crash?
-Plane crash? -Yes, the one three months ago,
where 122 people died.
Chandrashekhar was one of them. It was all over the news.
-Was it him? -Yes, look, sir.
Unless he had a twin, that's Chandrashekhar.
Alright. Go.
Okay, Sir. Jai Hind, Sir.
-Jai Hind. -Let's go.
We came to enquire about Chandrashekhar,
and something strange came up.
His neighbor says he died in a plane crash three months ago.
What? Chandrashekhar died in a plane crash?
Then whose post-mortem did Salunkhe do?
Whose body was that?
Sir, the neighbor showed us the report on his phone.
Chandrashekhar's name was on the list of crash victims.
The body we found, the stent in its heart belonged to Chandrashekhar.
So, Chandrashekhar died twice?
Once in the crash three months ago,
and once by drowning three days ago?
What else did you learn about him?
Nothing much, Sir. He lived alone.
Even the neighbor didn't know him well.
Abhijeet, pull up all the details of that plane crash.
Where was it headed?
How and when did the crash happen?
Most importantly,
get the full passenger list.
Check if Chandrashekhar
actually boarded that flight.
-Okay, Sir. We'll do that. -Okay.
-Pankaj! -Yes, Sir.
-What happened, Sir? -Nothing.
Pankaj, I called you for work.
Dig out Chandrashekhar's full background,
his family, education,
job, everything.
How can a man die twice?
Once in a plane crash,
and then drowning in water?
Chandrashekhar never boarded that flight.
Just before boarding, he got a call and rushed out of the line.
-Really? -Yes, Sir.
Here, Sir.
-Play that video again. -Yes, Sir.
Yes.
Sir, Chandrashekhar had no wife and no children.
He had no family. Lived alone.
Alone, but an important man, Sir.
He was an engineer at Vasudha Aerospace,
the biggest airline company in the country.
And the flight he was going to board that day
was from Indo Sky Airlines.
Vasudha's biggest rival.
So, Chandrashekhar worked for Vasudha Aerospace.
And the flight that crashed
was operated by their rival, Indo Sky.
He was supposed to fly with.
But he didn't board it, Sir.
Right before boarding, someone called him and made him leave.
Whoever it was, they knew the flight was going to crash.
Yes.
Abhijeet, do one thing.
Find out who called Chandrashekhar
when he was standing in line to board.
And also, find out
everything about that flight crash.
Let's visit Vasudha Aerospace.
Looks like the competition's
flying way too high for their own good.
We're from CID.
We need to speak to your boss,
HR, or any manager available.
Sir, the company's owners are here. They're in a meeting right now.
Do you have an appointment?
Our appointment was confirmed the moment we walked through that door.
Sir, you can't go in like this.
Hello, three CID cops are coming,
get the guards ready.
So, as I was saying,
we'll need a 12% cost cut in the next six months.
Only then can we hit our desired profits.
Who owns this company?
Sit down, relax.
You're lucky,
the boss is in today.
And you are?
We are the owners. He's Dhruv, and I'm Tara.
Before the high command issues you orders,
please leave.
Otherwise,
the way you're flashing those ID badges and storming in,
you won't be able to hold them again.
Let us worry about our job. You focus on yours.
If we come back tomorrow with a warrant and handcuffs,
worry about what your company's stock price
will look like then.
First of all, my company employs thousands of people.
So I don't know who… What was that name?
-Chandrashekhar. -I don't know who he was.
The one who died in the plane crash.
No, not in a plane crash.
His body was found on the beach. We already told you that.
He never boarded the plane.
Someone called him at the last minute. It could be from your company.
Before making baseless accusations, bring me some evidence.
Or I'll file such a defamation case,
you won't be able to afford the outcome.
Mr. Dhruv, we'll find the evidence.
Just hope it doesn't point to you.
Otherwise, what happens next, you won't be able to afford that.
Sir, this Dhruv needs to be dealt with.
Without proof, we can't even touch him.
Abhijeet, I've got an old friend.
He's an Air Force pilot, now posted in the Aviation Division.
Maybe he can help us.
It's Pankaj. Yes, Pankaj.
Sir, the last-minute call Chandrashekhar got to the airport,
that same number's listed on his hospital emergency form.
And he'd received calls from it before too.
Did you find out who made the call?
No, Sir. After the airport call, the number's been off.
And the SIM was bought using a fake ID.
Pankaj, you must've found the active location of that SIM by now, right?
Where was the last call made from?
From the Vasudha Aerospace building, the place where you are right now.
That was the last location.
So, the call came from here, Sir.
That means someone inside this office
didn't want Chandrashekhar
to die in the crash.
The investigation report's been public for a while.
But when I checked it, something felt off.
Listen to this.
Stabilizer throttles, no response!
Systems are not working! Nothing failing.
See that? The cockpit voice recorder's audio
should match the flight data recorder.
Such as altitude, engine thrust, control systems,
none of them lines up.
And another thing, the black box data and the official crash report
don't match either.
The investigation claimed it was all the pilots' fault.
The engine was fine.
Everything was blamed on pilot error.
Who did this investigation?
There were two agencies.
Director Pramod from Mumbai, and Professor Narendra from Delhi.
Sir, we couldn't trace Chandrashekhar's emergency contact.
But we did pull the timing details.
Sir, Chandrashekhar made payments at a hotel
in Pune using his debit card on the very next day.
But why would he go into hiding in Pune after the crash?
Only those who are scared go into hiding.
Exactly! Why did he go to Pune?
What was he afraid of?
Pankaj and Purvi, go to Pune.
Find out.
Sir, he's been staying here for three months.
He hasn't stepped out even once.
Food, drinks, everything was room service.
Never asked for housekeeping either.
A couple of days ago, he stepped out,
and never came back.
Room number 21. I'll open it.
But sir, what's going on?
You didn't tell us.
Is this some kind of terrorist case?
He looked normal. His ID was proper.
He paid all his bills on time.
He's dead now.
Dead? How?
People leave without warning, manager.
It's sad that Chandrashekhar didn't tell you.
Apart from him, did anyone else come here?
No, ma'am. No one came. Not before or after.
Did he get any calls at the hotel?
Or make any from the landline?
Yes, sir, he used the landline a few days ago.
We'll need a full call list.
Okay, I'll get it.
Look at this, there's dust here.
Seems like something slid here.
Someone's pulled the bed forward.
Let's shift it and see.
What? Both investigators are dead?
Yes, Sir.
The one from Mumbai died in a road accident
a week after submitting his report.
And the Delhi one died four days later.
He had a heart attack.
The timing of their deaths? Doesn't feel like a coincidence.
There's definitely something wrong here, Daya.
Someone's tampering
with the evidence and the witnesses from the plane crash.
Trying to erase everything.
-Sir. -Yes.
Chandrashekhar was in touch with a journalist using the hotel phone.
And he hid this pen drive behind the bed.
-Plug it in. -Yes, Sir.
It's password-protected.
Try "Chandrashekhar."
Sir, two attempts left.
If we get it wrong again, all data will be wiped.
Can this pen drive be hacked?
We'll need an expert. I know someone.
-Call them, fast. -Yes, Sir.
Purvi, tell me one thing.
The journalist Chandrashekhar kept contacting, who was he?
His name's Amitabh, Sir.
Amitabh?
Amitabh.
Hey, let's wait for two minutes!
Lights are on, fan is on, AC is on,
and he even left half a cup of tea unfinished.
He rushed out of here in quite a hurry.
Sir, the hacker tried, but it was of no use.
The second attempt also went to waste.
-Now there's only one final attempt left… -No, no, absolutely not.
Two attempts have already been made. If the third attempt is wrong too,
all the data will be lost.
Until we are sure about the password,
we won't try it.
Yes.
-Sir, I've found something. -What?
Sir, this time I've dug into Chandrashekhar's background
and checked his college records.
Take a look at this.
Tara and Chandrashekhar!
They seem quite close.
Look at the way they're standing, it looks like
they share a very close bond.
Sir, they were batch mates in college.
Sir, this Amitabh has gone missing from home.
Seeing the newspapers piled up at his door, it looks like
it's been at least three or four days.
Three or four days! That means he went
missing roughly after Chandrashekhar's death.
-Yes, Sir. -Yes, Sir.
And whether he disappeared on his own or someone made him disappear,
that's also unclear.
Sir, even his family and girlfriend have no idea about his whereabouts.
Forget the family, Daya.
Keep an eye on his girlfriend.
Looks like Amitabh won't be able to stay away
without meeting his girlfriend.
Keep a close watch on the girlfriend.
Bhumi.
Go and meet Tara. Talk to her.
There was definitely something fishy going on between her
and Chandrashekhar.
Divya.
CID!
Yes, thanks to your girlfriend.
Following her has brought us all the way here.
A month ago, Chandrashekhar contacted me.
He seemed very troubled and in serious distress.
He said there was something terribly wrong in the aviation sector.
That he wanted to expose something big.
Who was he talking about?
Vasudha or IndoSky?
I don't know.
Even after I asked him repeatedly, he didn't tell me anything.
After that, we gradually started talking over calls.
Maybe he wanted to earn my trust before revealing anything.
But even then, he never clearly said anything.
He said the company was playing with people's lives
and that safety protocols were being ignored.
You never met him again after that?
We were supposed to meet.
He was probably going to give me all the evidence.
But before that could happen, he disappeared.
And after that, his dead body was found.
I felt threatened, so I ran away from home.
Sir, I don't know who killed Chandrashekhar, or why,
but one thing is certain,
there are powerful people behind this,
who will go to any extent…
Pankaj, Amitabh is dead.
-He's dead too. -What?
Sir, both the journalist and the shooter are dead.
Now we don't have any leads left to follow.
We are back to square one.
Pankaj,
anyone who dies always leaves behind some clue.
Check this shooter's fingerprints,
see if they match anything in our criminal records.
If we find even a trace, trust me,
that trace will lead us straight to the killer.
Sir, forget about meeting Tara
at this point, even getting near her building has become difficult.
Without answering her legal team,
we can't question any Vasudha Aerospace employee.
Tara… Tara…
Tara's the biggest piece of this puzzle.
She's the biggest piece of this puzzle.
We have to meet her
because Tara's number was listed as Chandrashekhar's emergency contact.
It was Tara who called him at the airport.
We have no choice now. We must confront her.
Make Tara talk.
Next week, we might see even more growth in our share prices.
Coincidentally, ever since the IndoSky plane crash,
our market has grown significantly. We're getting more and more deals.
Guys,
that's how the market works, so don't worry.
We have to keep working hard.
Yeah.
Hey, what happened to the lights?
What's happening?
-What happened? -Be quiet!
Everyone, please take your seats.
Please calm down.
Come, come.
Come on, let's go, hurry up.
Come on, move out, move out.
Go down, everyone.
Everyone, go down. Let's go, ma'am.
Ma'am, come here, quickly.
-Quickly, this way. -The exit is that way, right?
CID!
So it was you all who did this!
One minute, please listen.
Let's go!
Look, you… what you're doing isn't right.
I won't speak to any of you without my lawyers present.
People talk about lawyers before answering questions
only when they've committed a crime
or when they're guilty of something, Tara.
We haven't come here to arrest you, Tara.
We just need your help to uncover the truth.
Tara, we know everything
about what was going on between you and Chandrashekhar.
We only want to know one thing. On the day the plane crashed,
it was you who called him, wasn't it?
Why are you silent, Tara? Who are you trying to protect?
The one who killed Chandrashekhar?
The one who caused the plane crash for their own selfish gain?
Who are you trying to protect?
Speak up, Tara.
Before it's too late.
Before he takes another innocent life.
Yes…
Chandrashekhar, those two investigators,
the 122 people who died in the plane crash…
Even Amitabh. There's only one person
behind all their deaths.
It's… it's my brother, Dhruv.
What exactly did Chandrashekhar have against Dhruv?
He… he had discovered technical faults
in Vasudha Aerospace's aircraft.
Faults that Dhruv had deliberately left unfixed
just to cut costs.
But Chandrashekhar wasn't going to stay quiet.
He had prepared a solid report against us
for the sake of public safety.
He was going to expose us. But before he could…
Dhruv found out.
How did you know that the plane was going to crash?
That too… was part of Dhruv's plan.
He knew that Chandrashekhar was going to be on that… that plane.
He saw it as an opportunity to push the market upward.
So he tampered with IndoSky's plane,
specifically the fuel system.
So that when the crash happened,
not only would Chandrashekhar die,
but IndoSky's reputation would also be destroyed.
But Chandrashekhar never boarded that flight.
You called him and saved him.
I've known Chandrashekhar since college.
He was my first love,
it's not so easy to forget him.
Wow!
The first love!
But even after all this,
Chandrashekhar didn't stay quiet.
Three months later, he…
he contacted a journalist.
Amitabh.
But Amitabh turned out to be a traitor.
He realized that the company Chandrashekhar was talking about
was Vasudha Aerospace,
so he double-crossed Chandrashekhar and
started blackmailing Dhruv.
That's why Dhruv had Amitabh killed on the beach.
So the truth never reached us, right?
Tell me one thing, Tara
you saved your love,
but have you ever thought about those innocent 122 people
and their deaths?
No, right?
I was really scared.
I didn't understand what was happening.
Dhruv… Dhruv is very dangerous.
If he found out, he would have killed me too
Your regrets won't help us, Tara.
You need to give us solid evidence against Dhruv.
But I don't have any proof.
Whatever evidence or witnesses there were…
Dhruv has eliminated them all.
All I have left now is
what I have told you.
But we do have something.
Purvi.
This pen drive
was left behind by Chandrashekhar,
and it contains all the evidence against Dhruv.
All of it.
That's why Chandrashekhar gave his life for it.
But we don't have the password to open it.
I can give you the password,
but…
But? "But" what?
You'll have to promise me…
You'll get me protection from the court.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
122 innocent lives were lost
and you don't feel even a shred of guilt or regret?
What kind of person are you?
Protection from the court?
We'll see about that later,
first, the password.
ChandraTara…
The password is ChandraTara.
Mr. Dhruv, what do you have to say
about the allegations made against you?
One minute. One minute. Move aside, ma'am, please.
Which allegations?
Is it a crime now for a poor man to build a massive company
on his own?
I started from a tiny garage and built this entire empire myself.
I've played a huge role in boosting this country's GDP.
Jobs, technology, NGOs. I've given everything.
And today, you're all calling me a criminal?
When you were all asleep in your homes,
I was building the future of this nation.
And to build a future like this,
you have to make sacrifices. I made them.
And when your turn came, I became the villain?
Sacrifices are made by the soldiers of this country too,
but they don't take innocent lives to do it. Understand.
You've built your empire, your palace on the corpses of innocents.
Don't you dare call your sins "sacrifice." Understand?
-Let's go. -Move aside.
Let's go. Let's go. Move aside, please.
No, no. Move aside.
Move ahead.
Sir…
Congratulations! Abhijeet Sir!
You solved a case that seemed absolutely impossible.
Yeah, but has any case ever
been solved without your help?
Well, that's true.
What's that in your hand?
Nothing.
There's definitely something.
No, no…
look,
I mean… it's nothing.
Come on, show me. What is it?
What are you hiding that's so secret?
-For you. -For me?
It's nothing special, just…
When I saw it,
it made me think of you.
-Really? -Yeah.
-This is for you. -Okay.
Thank you, Abhijeet. ay.
