I'm Detective Jose Alula from Alula International, Mexico.
After the end of Pablo Escobar's era in the '90s,
among the drug cartels that emerged in Mexico,
the most ruthless syndicate was Peter Sambai's Mundak Cartel.
More than a hundred murders,
armed attacks,
drug trafficking...
Sambai's name was tied to countless crimes.
American agencies such as the CIA, FBI, and DEA,
along with international organizations like Interpol,
scrambled desperately to obtain even a single photograph of Sambai.
Yes! Nobody has seen him alive!
And those who had seen him are not alive!
For that very reason, I was determined to take at least one photograph of him.
I went there that day based on secret information
that Sambai was closing a deal at that location.
My goal was neither to foil that deal nor to capture Sambai.
Just one photo.
That's all I wanted.
I took bold steps and drew nearer to that goal.
Where is that fu**** Sambai?
He will certainly come for this deal.
That son of a Bi***!
Sambai, I'm not part of this game.
In the flash of the photograph I took that day,
Sambai saw my face clearly.
And right then, brave as I was, I fled Mexico and ran back to my homeland.
The Mexican police's counter-attack that day
was a major blow to the Mundak Cartel.
It escalated into a gang war,
and that's how Peter Sambai's downfall began.
Having fled Mexico out of fear of Sambai, I returned home.
Since I couldn't find any other work, I started a detective agency here too.
Detective Alula International.
However, thanks to the "cooperation" of the locals,
who couldn't tell a detective agency from a dispensary,
it had to be shut down almost immediately.
Adding just the right amount of spice and spite to my Mexican experiences,
I started writing a novel titled "The Disappearance of Sambai."
While I was working on that, my son Tony grew up.
- Since he couldn't find any other job-- - Enough! I'm all grown up, right?
You can stop talking now. I shall take over now.
While he was writing, I grew up.
Since I was poor at studies, and couldn't get any job,
and with my girlfriend's father insisting
I join some 'force' before he'd agree to our marriage,
I took over my dad's dispensary... I mean detective agency!
Whenever I have faced a risk in my life,
I have always run away from it.
But this risk...
it is inevitable.
There is no escaping this.
Where were you?
Do you know how long I've been waiting?
I sent you so many messages.
This isn't working.
- Your phone? - Not that, Tony!
This relationship isn't working!
Why not?
Where were you for the last two days?
I was busy with that Marwadi's stolen necklace case.
- This isn't going well, Tony. - Huh?
- Let's break up. - Hey, wait a minute!
I really didn't see your messages.
You didn't see them?
- No, dear. - Then how come I saw the blue tick?
Blue tick?!
Tony...
One 'okay'...
One 'Hmm'...
Couldn't you even send a smiley?
Too much workload! Didn't I tell you about the Marwadi's stolen necklace?
And did you find Marwadi's necklace?
No, but I'll find it. I'm sure..
My dear Tony...
I'm not asking if you've solved a single worthy case.
But have you had even a single heroic moment in your life?
I've lost all hope of marrying you after you "settle down."
The Asian Games selections are going on.
I might go to Hyderabad for that.
- Don't go. - Why?
You won't get selected anyway.
- You're so negative, Tony! - Oh...
This is what I meant!
You know what? I'm done with you, Tony.
- Let's end this! - Yeah, let's do that!
Bloody breakup!
Breakup-patchup, breakup-patchup madness!
- Hello? - Yeah...
Did Daddy's princess have dinner?
- Yes, I had. - Didn't go to bed yet?
- No. I'll sleep only after you come home.
Go and sleep with your Mom, sweetie.
- When will you be back, Dad? - I'll come soon.
- I won't sleep till you're home.
I'll be back soon. I'll call you later. Now hang up.
What took you so long, Silva?
Had to wait for those customs guys to clear out.
- Let's go. - Okay.
Bloody hell!
Got a cigarette?
- No. We'll buy some. - Okay.
What is it, Silva?
What we've got in here is worth 30 crores.
And what do we get for delivering it to our godown?
Just fifty-thousand peanuts!
What if… we played a little game?
What?
If we take this to Munnar,
there is a guy ready to buy it.
And we will get one crore!
My dear Silva...
You think you can stay alive around here after crossing Kanaka Sabhapathi?
This “Sabhapathi Kitchens & Restaurants” stuff is just a front.
His real business is something else.
In South India's international smuggling scene, Annan is the undisputed kingpin.
I just cleared all my old mess and started living straight with my family.
I can't risk it again. I'm out of this.
Leave it if you're not interested.
I just thought I'd ask.
Hmm.
Forget I even mentioned it.
- What's the update, Silva? Did you speak to Maqbool?
- Will he join? - Doesn't look like he ever will.
- That won't do.
- Make him agree somehow.
Huh?!
- Hello?
Hey!
Hey! Get away from there!
Hey!
Get lost!
Who the hell are you guys?
- Look, Dilraj...
- You've become completely irresponsible lately.
Hmm...
- Don't make me repeat this every single day.
- Do things with due diligence.
- That is the responsibility of a husband.
- And don't wake me up in the morning.
- My coffee should be on the dining table.
- It has to be piping hot!
Yeah, I'll wake you up!
- Otherwise you'll be grilled.
- What the hell?! You dinosaur!
I'm your husband, you witch!
I'm not your slave!
Uff!
Please save only me!
Oh, damn!
Oh!
Shucks!
- Wake Kannan up and brush his teeth.
- After that, take him out so he can poop.
- And be sure to wipe his bottom gently when he's done.
Kannan!
Huh!
Huh? Oh no!
Where is Kannan?
Kannan...
Kannan.
Kannan!
Ka... Kannan!!
Lollymol! Our Kannan!!
Kannan is missing!
Lollymol!
Kannan!!!
- Kannan! - Navya Nair is in this apartment?
- Oh no!
- Kannan! - Don't shoot! Don't shoot!
- Something happened to someone!
- Wake up! Wake up! - What is it, man?
- Come! Come! - Something happened to chechi!
- Let's go and check!
- You just sleep, man!
- If we don't go, she'll land up here!
- Get up! - Doesn't your Chechi have better things to do?
- She wrecked my sleep!
- Please come, dear. - Get lost!
I'll come!
What is that? What's the fuss there?
- Don't speak! - I'll speak.
We're not a couple now, right?
- Will you speak? - I will.
- You sure you'll speak? - I will.
- Will you speak? - Give me a kiss then.
Will you speak?
- I will. - Huh?
You dog!
- I'll kill you! - Not that one!
This is enough!
What's the use of having you all here?
My Kannan is missing!
There's a CCTV camera here.
It never works!
When I ask why it doesn't work, he doesn't have an answer!
I'm here to check everything, just like a CCTV, right?
What safety does this apartment have?
If someone kidnaps me tomorrow,
won't he blabber the same excuse?
- When I'm around, who would kidnap you? - Huh?
I mean, who will kidnap my 'dearest'?
You bullshit fellow!
I lost my Kannan because of you!
Chechi, please don't get stressed.
If anything happens to you, I'll call the armed force!
- When a dog goes missing-- - What? A dog?!
- Kannan! Not a dog! - Not a dog!! I mean, Kannan...
Kannan!
Mushtafa! Come!
- What are you staring at? Come! - Bye, chechi.
Come, come.
Find him somehow!
- Oh no! - Why are you standing here?
Go, look for him!
- Go, I say! - I'll go.
Oh my Kannan!
Oh my God!
Hello? Someone attacked me!
- Damn! Are they following you?
Not anymore.
I had asked Maqbool if he would join us.
- He isn't interested. - Did you tell him about me?
No. I didn't take any names.
Maqbool escaped when they attacked.
I'm taking the route to Munnar.
- I'll reach there before sunrise. - Okay. I'll come there.
- I'm switching off my phone. - Okay. hang up now.
Huh?!
- Liaquat bhai... - Tell me.
- I got it. - Okay.
- You send it to me.
Okay, bhai. I'll do the needful.
- I'll call you later.
Okay, bhai.
Chetta, hand me that courier.
Everyone is relying on ink-gazing and shell-reading.
How am I even going to get a case then?
- What happened? - My girlfriend is missing.
Superb! Jump from here!
- Another unidentified body on the highway!
- Police are currently collecting fingerprints
- from the car the individual is suspected to have used.
- The incident happened today morning.
- Police said they will further investigate the death.
Wow! A watch!
- Preliminary assessment suggests that a wound to the neck is the cause of death.
- The ongoing inquiry is examining possible ties
- to out-of-state criminal gangs.
- Hello? - Tony Jose Alula!
- I'm calling from the Town police station. You have to come here.
I always knew you'd call me eventually.
How can I help you?
- I'll tell you that when you come here. Come fast!
Oh! Pegasus spyware!
Brilliant police move!
Kerala Police now officially require Tony Jose Alula, my friends!
- High Court to hear the plea against Kerala Boosters Football Club's ban shortly.
- An unidentified body was discovered under suspicious circumstances.
- The body was found this morning.
Who are you again?
Private detective Tony Jose Alula from Mexico.
How may I help you, sir?
A person was found dead on the highway this morning.
Our primary assessment is that it's a murder.
Yes, sir. It's a murder, sir.
Some kind of sharp weapon has struck the right side of the body's right neck.
That can only be done using techniques such as a drone or sniper.
Oh!
If you take help of fingerprint experts,
you can find out if more than one person was involved.
How do you know all this so correctly, sir?
Observation, sir. The science of observation!
This is being zoomed in and shown on the TV since morning.
In that case, can you please tell us who the murderer is, sir?
Since the body was pulled out from the car and dumped outside,
somewhere 'aas-paas', I mean, right in the immediate vicinity,
maybe you will definitely find a clue.
- We got one clue. - There you have it!
We got a visiting card holder.
That is definitely the killer's card holder!
- Here it is. - Oh, nice card!
Detective Alula International...
- Oh no! It's not me! - It is definitely you!
- The team will step onto the field tomorrow...
Huh! What is this?
What are you doing?
- Get down! - Tell them to shut up!
- The bench will break! - Sir, Sir... This...
This is not me!
Someone planted this holder there!
Please understand, sir. Listen to me.
It's my livelihood, sir!
Please, sir! Please understand, sir!
Please understand, sir! Please--
Sir...
Was it nice?
Sir...
Sir!
I feel like I lost something.
- Sir... - Something happened to sir.
But isn't this your chair?
- Err... So this 'kissico'-- - Huh?!
I mean... What's this Mexico connection?
My father was in Mexico, sir.
He was a detective there. Then he started an office here.
I'm managing it now to safeguard my future.
Stop your nonsense and tell me the truth.
If you have any doubts, call my father and ask him.
Why don't you call him?
He won't answer if I call.
Huh?!
Sambai's...
disappearance!
- Hello?
Hello... Is this Jose Alula?
- Speaking. - I'm calling from South station.
- Yes?
Your son Tony Jose has been summoned here as part of an investigation.
- So what?
Err... Are you a detective?
[in Spanish] I'm Detective Jose Alula of Alula International.
I mean... Detective Jose Alula from Alula International, Mexico.
Any help?
So what about Tony Jose?
Come on! He doesn't have the caliber for that.
If you aren't busy, you'll have to come to the station.
We need to get some things clarified.
But I am busy.
Then your son will be here forever.
He's not of much use even if he comes here.
Well, if there are no chairs to sit on there,
he will just stand. Don't worry.
Hello?
He hung up!
- Oh dear me! - Hey, why are you sitting there?
- Isn't that my chair? - Yes.
S.I. sir has asked to include you too in the suspects list.
You go and talk to S.I. sir.
- Can you please come with me? - Go and see him!
[Romantic song playing]
- If it's heads or tails, Kaikeyi's mine.
- Get lost! What about me then?
- If it lands on its side, she's yours. - Okay. Huh! What??
Heads! Kaikeyi is mine.
You just love her, but I want to marry her.
So what?
- Kaikeyi is mine! - Dream on, sunshine!!
Didn't you see her looking at me?
She wasn't. That was just a dance step, you fool!
Hey! Silence!
- Didn't you go to the loo? - No, I couldn't.
- Is the practice going well? - Yes!
- Okay. - My love...
Do you know who is going to lead our team for the arts festival?
No!
Rajat Menon!
- Huh! - Everyone clap!
I won't clap!
- Hey, listen... - So, Rajat...
- Shut up! - What have you planned?
- We should compete in 17 events, sir. - Okay.
I've fixed a superb cinematic dance featuring Kaikeyi from 4B and myself.
- I want to pee! - Shut up!
- I'll give the rest of the details in the evening. - Very good!
Sit down.
I think I just went!
Yikes! What did you do, Sibu!?
- Didn't I tell you earlier? - What can I do about it?
You quietly go outside.
So you guys aren't participating?
Then do this.
Plan a dance with the girls.
Sir! Rajat peed his trousers!
It wasn't me, sir!
- Silence! - I wasn't the one who peed, sir!
- Rajat! - It wasn't me! Wasn't me!
What a shameful thing to do!
- Yikes! - How can you represent this school?
It wasn't me! It was him!
- Out! - Let me explain!
Get out!
I'll show you!
I'll be waiting!
Why was I summoned?
Not just summoned,
I'll make you the prime accused in this case and put you behind bars!
After that, Kaikeyi...
- will be mine! - In your dreams!
Tell me the truth.
What's your connection to this case?
What connection?
If there's no connection, how did I find your card holder at the crime scene?
- So what? - If evidence is found at a crime scene,
I can establish a connection between you and the evidence.
I can prove I was somewhere else at the same time.
- Where? - I was at Kaikeyi's apartment.
- At Kaikeyi's apartment? - Yes.
- At night? - Yeah.
What were you doing there?
She got scared of the thunderstorm yesterday and called me.
- It was cold, so I went. - Huh!!
Why are you asking all this?
- Sir. - Huh!!
- Tell me. - We got the car details in that murder case.
Kanaka Sabhapathi owns it.
Maqbool, who was with Silva, is missing
Arnold and his gang are waiting outside.
- You can go now. - Okay.
- But I'll summon you again. - Okay.
You should come!
But why would she call this bugger?!
I figured it was the Yellow Army from your T-shirts.
- Are you married? - I was.
- But I'm single now. - Same pinch!
Why did the police nab you?
Cute girls, right?
That body they found on the highway today...
They found my card holder and visiting cards near the spot.
Which jerk would've dumped it there?
Huh!
Sorry!
- For her birthday,
- I took her to the Manjummal Boys' movie set in Perumbavoor, saying that it's Kodaikanal.
- And on our way back,
- we saw this cute dog on the road.
- When she saw that dog and said, 'What a cute surprise, Sanoop!',
- I picked it up and gave it to her.
- In all that excitement, the card must have fallen.
This is the dog I gifted my cutie.
She treats it like her own kid.
Why are you carrying my cards?
‘Cause I don't have any of my own!
Didn't I ask you to print 500 cards with 'Detective Sanoop' on it?
But you said I'm just a trainee, and you're the hotshot detective!
I'm the only one with brains, right?
That's probably true, but still...
Go, go. Deliver that food.
Classic bourgeois! Just classic!
The city is seeing a surge in man missing cases.
A girl has gone missing
after she left her apartment in Kadavanthra last night to walk her dog.
[in Spanish] One...
[in Spanish] One... two.
So many murders happen around here every day!
I'd kill to investigate one of them!
And yet my son is the only one who gets no cases!
- As if you were drowning in cases! - I was!
Not here, but in South America!
In Mexico!
You were born just to ruin my legacy!
Yeah, right!
Some detective he was!
You ruined my life by 'playing detective'.
And now you messed up my boy's life too!
- Hey, that was because... - Oh, here comes the excuses!
When he insisted on that girl, I was only trying to help.
And her dad wanted only a man who is in any one of the forces!
This is the best force I know!
Ugh, don't get me started.
♪ Life is cool in Mexico ♪
Then you should've stayed in Mexico.
- Why bother coming here? - What?
Did you talk to her parents when I asked you to?
Hey... just one case...
You solve one single case, then come talk to me.
Just tell me after you do that!
Then I'll go meet her dad
and ask for his daughter's hand for my son.
Her dad's ridiculous demands! Tell him to get lost!
My son will get a wonderful wife.
Oh no!
Seenamol...
- Isn't it time for your office? - Oh no!
As if that's the biggest problem we have here!
Fine, I'm going.
Listen... my job won't last forever.
Maybe the father-son team should remember that!
A house full of unemployed men!
- It's time to write! - My miserable fate, I guess!
[in Spanish] It's writing time!
Isn't this that dog?
Huh?!
Is it good?
- It's cool. - Yeah.
It would have been better if it were a cat.
A cat?
- Cat, cat. - Hey, you dog!
- My dog! - I'll bring you a cat, just wait!
If Aunty asks, just tell her I'm your friend.
- Uncle... - Hi dear!
Lolly!
Two strangers with Kaikeyi.
Huh?
Dog! Detective!
Pet detectives?
Yeah! Pet detectives!
My God! My sweetie pie!
This is his real mom.
Thank you! Mwah! Mwah!
Oh sweetie! Come!
Hey, move aside!
Oh my...!
I don't know if this is enough for all your effort.
Let me see how much it is.
Anyway, thank you for your services!
One... one lakh?!
One lakh?
Is it very less?
One lakh...
Aren't you happy, madam?
Shall we leave, madam?
Let's go.
Pet detectives?
Yeah, Pet detectives!

I got them for her when she said she needed baby fish for her aquarium.
Can't say no to a child's wish, right?
But you still took money from me, Suni Uncle.
Aha! So you scammed the child!
I was providing a service, chetta.
Happy birthday to you!
Get down, dear!
- You're getting out here too, chetta? - Yes.
- Thanks. - What about the fare?
Oh, I forgot.
Will she beat me? I really hope not.
Here, have it.
Okay?
How about we go get a beer?
I'll drink, you drive.
And then I get to ride!
- Here you go. - But how will you get home?
I'll just get an Uber or something.
Oh!
- Why? - Okay. Good night!
Isn't Menon Sir upstairs?
Menon Sir went to Mookambika.
Mookambika? What about your mom?
They went together for a temple offering for my birthday.
An Offer-ing!
How about a coffee?
Hmm. Come on up.
Tony, you want black coffee or with milk?
Hey!
I know I showed up late and ruined your birthday.
So I ordered a cake on 'Grab-it'.
Let it come. And let's just chill all night.
What do you say?
Hey, I have that promo shoot tomorrow.
I have to wake up early. You go home.
- A shoot? - Yeah...
The one I'm doing with Rajat.
And after that, Kaikeyi...
will be mine!
With Rajat? What kind of shoot?
- You didn't tell me about this! - You were unreachable!
But shouldn't I know if you're doing a shoot with Rajat?
See? This is the problem!
- Let's break up! - Get lost, you snake!
- Missing person cases are on the rise in the city.
Just get out!
- Complaints of police negligence are emerging from various quarters.
- The citizens' committee is citing
- Town SI Rajat Menon's inactivity and negligence as the primary reason for this.
Then why is that fool even on the police force?
- Protests from various quarters
- are all pointing to the incompetence of SI Rajat Menon.
Please be a rich client, please be a rich client...
- Oh no! - Hands up!
- Move! - I don't have it!
The pharmacy is downstairs. I'll buy you 'Moov' pain balm from there!
- Who is this clown? - Move aside!
What is this, Rajat? Did you storm in here with guns and cuffs
because you have a tummy ache?
Instead of sitting here cracking lame jokes all morning,
come and surrender before the law!
That was a terrible line.
It has no punch!
- Do another one. - Say a punch dialogue, sir.
- Fine, listen to this. - Bring it on!
For abducting a five-year-old girl named Diya in broad daylight
by luring her with chocolate and drugging her,
I have, in my possession,
witness statements and circumstantial evidence against you!
- Brilliant! - That was so good!
Here comes the IPC section!
- As per IPC 345, 127... - 360!
...and various other penal codes, I am here to arrest you, Mr. Tony Jose Alula!
- Sir, you are on another level! - Show him.
- Look at this! - Look at this!
Yes...
Huh!
Look at it!
- Hey, that's... - He's frightened!
- I know this girl! - We know you do!
Chetta, can you help this little girl cross the road?
We have you on CCTV,
getting out of an autorickshaw with this girl yesterday evening.
The second I saw this footage, I dropped everything.
I raced right over.
Also, autorickshaw driver Suni's statement is against you.
- You're the prime suspect! - Yes!
Stop playing games, Rajat!
Where did you take the girl last night?
I saw that girl yesterday.
But I was somewhere else last night.
Where were you last night?
I was with Kaikeyi.
With Kaikeyi again?
- That too, at night? - Yes.
- Doing what? - That's personal.
Personal? Go on, make it public!
Go and ask her yourself.
You bet I will!
- And if her answer is no... - If it's no?
- If it's no?
We will have to come back here to arrest him.
Come on, let's go.
- Isn't it clear? - We should track this bugger's every move!
Got it?
They're going to see her, right?
Yes.
Will she tell the truth?
Aren't you two fighting?
Oh!
One!
Two!
Yay!!!!!!
Colourful blast, madam!
Colourful blast!
Such a feeble hit, madam!
Where is the anger you walked in with?
I told you, the body must become the eye...
...and the eye must become the mind.
BP should shoot up!
Every smash you make here
should make Tony sir shiver over there!
Oh, my arthritis is acting up again!
- Grab the next one. - Very good!
Where's that plate?
Look, Madam. The face of pure arrogance.
Pompous liar!
Smash it to pieces, madam!
Hey! One second, one second.
Yes. Smash it now.
We have another product.
A made-in-China product from Japan!
Alula, you filthy dog! I'll smash your skull!
I'll crack your skull open!
Wow, this is a cool setup!
Ideal for couples!
- Isn't it? - Tony and I come here often.
Why does this smell like Marigold flowers?
- Well, who cares! - I'll break everything today!
You're late, sir. Madam has already started smashing things.
- Is that so? - That Filipino is here too.
Which Filipino?
This Filipino.
- Oh, this clown is here? - Yes.
What time did you go to sleep last night?
Why do you need to know that?
Investigation!
Around 10.30 PM, I guess.
Really?
But I saw you online on Facebook at 11 PM.

I sent you that 'Good Night' sticker
with the two birds rubbing their beaks together.
Didn't you see it?

- Please listen! Hello! - Lamba!
Kaikeyi...
...left with Rajat chettan.
Dumb-ah!
I ordered a fish. Any chance I'll get it before the new year?
Coming right up, sir.
Hello...
I don't care if you go with him!
I'll have a great life without you!
I'm a notorious single man! Single!
- You are the man! - The king of the jungle!
I guess that was a bit much.
Hey hey hey!
You...
You left me all alone and went with him. Was that the right thing to do?
Sheesh!
So... I felt sad... I don't care if I felt sad, you witch!
- The man is on repeat mode! - Right!
Hey hey!
Why are you deleting after sending them?
I want her to burn and smoulder with curiosity, wondering what I sent!
- Get lost, you imbecile!
Ouch! I think I'll cry!
Oh, my boss...
Forget all these problems!
All our problems are tangled up in a mess right now!
Let them be. I don't care.
I wonder where that girl vanished to.
Platinum Arowana...
Smuggling of the world's most expensive aquarium fish...
Bro, I didn't get my fish.
... is happening in Kochi too.
- This is the first time the smuggling of this fish,
- which is highly valued on the international market,
- has happened in India.
- The fish reportedly arrived 10 days ago on a ship at Cochin Port.
- A young Platinum Arowana is valued at approximately 3 to 5 Crore rupees.
- It is considered to be a fish that brings good fortune.
Sir, fish.
- Historically, this fish was the ultimate status symbol for royalty.
The fish is superb!
Hey!
Isn't this Arowana?
Oh my!
Yes.
So how did it end up with this little girl?
That's not important.
If we find that girl, we get those fish.
International smuggling fish!
Wow!
If we grab international smugglers, what does that make us?
- What does that make us? - International detectives!
Awesome!
Tony Jose Alula... International!
Yes!
These are the people who wanted to meet you.
They're from the press.
We're from an online news portal.
'The foreign murderer'
Epic fail!
The 'M' in both Malayali and Murderer got me confused!
We heard about your daughter's missing case.
We came to gather more details.
Have our incompetent authorities
provided any updates on this heinous crime?
The Police said they are investigating.
There was a person with her in the autorickshaw.
The police told us they're looking into that person now.
- That's you! - I know it's me.
Rajat! That dog!
So your daughter always takes that same autorickshaw?
Yes.
The driver lives nearby.
His name is Suni.
And her father?
Err... Maqbool Ikka... He isn't here right now.
- Let's go. - Sir!
Huh?
If it's possible, can you please find my daughter?
The Police won't investigate this case.
Something bad might happen to her!
If that happens, we won't stay alive!
Hey, don't think like that.
Nothing will happen to your daughter.
We will look for her, okay?
We will find her.
We have to find that girl, somehow.
Yeah, we will.
Where is this Suni?
Suni will be exactly where he is right now!
Is that so?
Oh Goddess, Amala Shaji!
Who here is Kattalan Suni?
Not again! Are you the police?
Get over here.
- Yes! - In that case, you'll have to wait a bit.
I'm on a break.
Wow. Let's go back.
Stay there.
How dare you take a break after kidnapping a child?
He's enjoying a break!
Sir, your men have been beating me for two days!
You may be a big constable,
but please give me a solution for this.
My wife took our son and left me.
I'm completely broke.
I haven't taken the auto out in two days.
At this rate, I'll just confess to some crime and go to jail!
Enough of your drama! Where is the girl?
Oh, my dear sir, I have no idea where that child is!
We're not here about the girl.
Huh?!
What we want to know
- is about the fish you gave her. - I've seen this face...
I gave her the fish because she wanted them for her aquarium.
Right! Where did you get them from?
Jokuttan brought those aquarium fish.
I gave him 500 rupees for them.
I picked them up at the Ponnarimangalam toll plaza.
[in Hindi] Brother! Fish!
My friend Jokuttan... Aquarium fish!
Oh, nice!
Oh...
So, the fish Suni gave to Diyamol
was the one Jokuttan passed to the toll worker.
So how did a fish worth 30 crores end up in Jokuttan's hands?
Where can we find this Jokuttan now?
[Drink only if you believe]
- Jokuttan? - We don't have Jokuttan.
We only have prawns, crab and squid.
- One squid. - We didn't come here to eat!
- Jokuttan? - Oh, Jokuttan!
He is over there.
Get your ass out!
- What? - We are Rozario brothers.
What's the matter?
Aren't you the guy who gave fishes to Suni a couple of days ago?
What?
[with a heavy accent] Did you give fish to Suni?
Oh, that!
Has that rat been blabbing about it to everyone?
- Yeah! - Yeah, yeah.
That scoundrel must have told you that he gave me 500 rupees
and I caught local Trevally for his aquarium, didn't he?
Yeah, yeah!
That ungrateful bum!
- Finished! - To this day,
Jokuttan has always been a pillar of truth and justice.
I just drink a little bit of toddy, that's all.
Ask them.
I drank toddy for 400 rupees today.
And this side dish costs 90 rupees.
I bought a glass jar for 10 rupees,
and my friend Soman and I struggled for over an hour
to catch those trevally with a towel!
No one talks about our struggles!
Instead, he's out there spreading gossip about me!
It runs in his family!
So this isn't the fish you gave him?
This fish?
TT?
This...
This glass jar has 'TT' written on it.
This is not my jar!
I gave him the fish in a good, sturdy Bournvita jar!
A Bournvita jar!
Fish... Aquarium fish!
[in Hindi] My guy will come.
He will come here, okay?
Auto Suni!
So Jokuttan gave Trevally fish at the toll plaza.
But the fish Suni gave the girl was Platinum Arowana!
That means the fish were swapped at the toll plaza!
[in Hindi] You took fish from one person and gave it to another, right?
[in Hindi] Hey man! One side or two side?
- What fish? - Please! Jokuttan?
Scram! My shift is over. The next guy is here now.
- Alarm! Run! - Give back whatever you took!
No wonder that Bengali was telling 'Shift, shift!'
When his shift changed, the fish got changed.
This is not my jar!
TT! It must be some kind of poisonous jar.
Hey...
I've seen that logo somewhere before.
Which lock?
Logo, not lock!
That 'TT'. Didn't you see it?
This one.
I've seen it somewhere.
Hey!
Thinkal!
I've been thinking for some time now!
Not that!
The guy who played the song 'Hey Rogue Wind' instead of the announcement
when the Chief Minister boarded the metro!
- Oh, that dude! - Thinkal Thomas!
- Yeah! - My friend!
- Your friend? - This has to be his work!
He is TT!
He's got to be alive!
Isn't this guy dead yet?
Hey Tony!
Long time no see! What's new?
I'm good, just getting by.
Where are you?
Hey, I'm getting ready to head out on a trip.
- Solo! - I'm calling to ask you something.
What is it?
Did you design a glass jar for holding fish for someone?
Was it a jar with a blue cap and an oxygen refill setup?
Yes, yes!
- I made that. Make-in-India! - Oh, okay.
Pretty sure it was for some shady deal.
I even put my 'TT' sign on it.
- Hey, could I meet you if I swing by your place today?
Listen, I'll call you later.
I have to go somewhere urgently
- I'll call you back later. - Where are you going?
I'm going... to jail for a little while.
One second, sir.
A criminal case has been filed against me.
I'll get bail. I'll call you then.
Okay then, bro! Muah!
What a perfect timing!
Well, so much for our only lead!
Huh?!
Look at her!
Huh!
That guy is with her too!
You'd better watch your back.
There are scoundrels
who specifically seek out and console wives and girlfriends
who are estranged from their partners.
Also, Valentine's Day is two days away.
He's got his Cupid's bow aimed and ready!
I'll snap his bow, grind it with wild chillies, and make a chutney out of it!
Open the gate. 14B, Kaikeyi.
Madam has instructed me not to let you in.
14B Kaikeyi! Do you not know I'm Tony Jose Alula?
Yes, she specifically said not to let that clown Alula inside.
What's the harm in letting us in?
Madam said not to let you in.
- Hey, what are you doing here - Sir...
They're causing a scene insisting on seeing Kaikeyi madam.

- Happy Valentine's Day! - Get lost!
- What is this? - What?
Yeah, What?
I'm not leaving without an answer.
An answer to what?
- Should I marry you, or will you marry me? - Move aside, Tony!
I'm already late for my friend's birthday party.
- You just leave! - Which friend?
- Oh, Tony! Please leave! - No! Give me an answer!
- You won't leave? - I won't!
You really won't leave?
I really won't leave!

Who are they?
- Huh! - What the...?
Chetta...
Well, we... We were just...
- He's my boyfriend. - And she's my girlfriend.
We were just pulling a prank.
Is that so? But we took it seriously.
Start the car!
- But... - Start it!
Tell her to drive the car.
- Or I'll put a bullet in you! - Go on, hurry!
Put on your seat belt!
- Where to? - Walk!
Are we still in Kerala?

Smoke it! Go on, smoke it up!
Where are they taking us?
- Go there! - Walk!
We are walking! Can't you see?
- It's fine. You'll get used to it. - Tie them up!
What?!
- Gently! - I'll tie gently.
This is nothing. Sit.
Lean back!
Arnold and his gang are waiting outside.
- Where is the fish? - What fish? I don't know anything!
- Talk! - Hey Tony! Are you a fishmonger?
Shut up! Can't you see I'm getting beaten up here?
Take it!
Who is calling, chetta?
The fish that vanished from the car in which Silva was killed... Where is it?
I haven't heard about any fish, my dear bro!
- I don't know anything! - Chetta!
He knows. He's lying. He'll talk if you hit him more!
- Tell me! - Okay! I'll tell you.
Here's the thing.
She is the leader of our gang.
All the details are on her phone.
- Huh! - Her?!
Oh, no! Not me! I don't know a thing!
Don't just stand there! Get her phone!
Ah, yes. I'll take it.
With your permission, I'm putting my hand in!
- Hey! - I mean, in her pocket!
Got it!
One message received.
- Check it. - Alright.
- Hi Kaikeyi!
- I left a box in your car.
- It will surprise you.
- Happy Valentine's Day, my love!
- So cringe! - What can I do?
Here, take your phone.
Can you ask your men to bring that gift here?
What?
Could you ask your men to bring that gift here?
Go get it!
Is this the gift from that idiot?

- That retreat isn't over yet? - So, is it ready?

Which bottle?!
The bottle with the blue cap!

Fish worth thirty crores??

Then why didn't you search and find it yourself?
It takes a brain to find something like that!

Why's he looking at me like a rat that's found a snack?

- Wrapped in banana leaf? - Yes, of course!
- Will it be ready soon? - Let it steam properly. Wait a minute.
It smells like your rice cake is burning.

Kai...
Let's talk later, Tony.
This is not just about some fish, Kai.
A child's life is at stake here.
- Since we knew that the girl and the fish are together,
- we kicked off our investigation at Diyamol's house.
The driver lives nearby.
His name is Suni.
Jokuttan bought those aquarium fish.
TT! It must be some kind of poisonous jar.
Thinkal Thomas! My friend!
Do you remember anything about the guys who hired you for this job?
Well, I did take his photo.
Yes, yes! It's him!
- We learned from him that a man named Shaji had given him this job.
- Now, we have to catch this Shaji.
What do you think you're doing, Tony?
This is way too risky. Let's just inform the cops.
There is no point in doing that.
What have you got there?
This guy...
Isn't this that guy?
Who is it?
The guy from Instagram who's always posting reels, right?
Err...
'Moustache Shajiyettan'! That's his name!
Everything will become clear if we can get him.
I know this creep.
He often sends me messages like,
'Wassup, sugar baby? Playing hard to get?'
Look at this.
- This is him, right? - Awesome!
Yes.
He annoys everyone by posting reels like this.
Send him a 'Hi'.
Hi chetta!
- He replied! - 'Hi sugar baby!'
- Hi... - Hello!
Kaikeyi...
I've been dying to meet you for so long.
Me too!
Huh? Who is this?
She is my friend.
Sultana Maimoona.
Beautiful eyes!
Hi!
Huh?!
Sit down!
- Where are you, sir? - I'm sitting here between two bears.
He can't go anywhere without me seeing him.
- Okay, sir. - Before that idiot solves this case,
- I will solve it myself! - Brilliant, sir.
Everything is under my control.
- No need to worry. - No worries, sir.
I'll never message her again!
I'll block her number, I swear!
Hey! You think this is the 'Vandanam' movie chase? Stop!
Hey! It's him! It's him!
He is wearing a black nightie...
- Oh no! - Hey!!!!!
I'll go this way!
- Where did he go? - Tony!
- That's a guy, not a girl! - Oh no!
- Catch him! Catch him! - No, chechi!
Shajiyetta!!
What is it?
Who the hell are you?!
Shaji Pappan?!
Huh!
Kattipparamba!
Tell me! Who hired you for the fish job?
- I won't tell you! - Tell me!
- Damuvetta! - I won't say it.
Tony!
Tell me! Say it!
- For who-- - Go for his moustache, not his throat!
Oh yes, his moustache!
- Say it! Say it! - Please don't touch my moustache!
Please, anything but the moustache!
- Shave it off, Tony! - You shut up!
- Say it! - Ali...
- Which Ali? - Yaqat Ali!
Shaji, we laid you parallel to the tracks.
For the next train, we will lay you across the tracks.
Tell me! What are the fish?
My dear Yaqat Ali,
I'm telling you the truth!
Don't you dare double-cross me!
- I'm not! - Where are the fish?
- Please! No! - Say it!
Oh no!
Yaqat Bhai...
The information I got was that
the Platinum Arowana for Sabhapathi
was coming from the port in a red Indica,
with a man named Silva.
Based on that info, we intercepted Silva's car on the highway.
But another guy was also with Silva that day.
While we took him down,
Silva managed to escape with the fish.
We chased him down and killed him.
And I got the fish.
We even designed a special bottle to get it to Mangaluru.
But when we reached the toll plaza, we saw a police checkpoint.
Shajiyanna, we're screwed!
So we changed plans
and gave the fish to our guy working at the toll booth to keep it safe.
Then I asked two new guys from Neendakara
to collect it from there and deliver it to your truck.
- Hello? - I have a job for you.
They said that they sent it safely via our truck.
Yeah, I got the package you sent.
Which is exactly why I came down from Mangaluru.
Show him!
What the...!
- What fish is this? - Trevally!
Call your guys!
I'm not able to get them on the phone!
My guys have gone to Neendakara--
I don't care if it's Neendakara or Niagara.
Shaji, stop playing games!
I'll rip you apart!
Ikka...
Who is it?
Shhh!
- Yaqat, what's the status of the job I gave you?
- When will I get my fish?
Bhai, I'm in Kochi. And I nabbed Shaji.
- Ten Platinum Arowana
- that the Sultan of Brunei sent to his girlfriend in Bangalore
- to raise as pets...
- A 30-crore deal!
- I leaked such a huge info to you.
- Once trust is broken,
- you can't get it back, Yaqat.
Bhai,
this Yaqat will get you your fish.
- Ten days. That's the time you got.
- Otherwise, you'll disappear, and so will your Mangalore port!
- Shaji! - Oh no!
- No! No! - Baby! baby!
- Don't stress yourself! - Move aside, wretch!
This is business.
- Oh no! - Shaji, I have been given ten days.
I give the same to you too.
Enough! Ten days will be enough!
I'll find it by then for sure.
So the fish isn't with Sabhapathy or Yaqat Ali.
The fish is with the child.
Where's Yaqat Ali?
- Say it! - Oh no!
- You'll lose your moustache! - Say it!
Shave off his moustache! Shave it!
He's going to be at the golf club tomorrow.
- Scram! - My moustache!
Did you get it?
Nobody else knows the child has the fish.
Come.
Golf club.
Yaqat Ali.
Wow!
Alright, Bhai.
Bhai, you know the situation back in Mangaluru, right?
Should we remain in Kochi for such a small deal?
Michael, who told you this was a small deal?
Those were pets the Sultan of Brunei gave his girlfriend.
That's what Peter Sambai tried to nab.
Huh?!
This is Peter Sambai's deal!
Wait, who?
You know that story my dad wrote?
It's about a man named Peter Sambai, right?
- Yes. - This is his deal.
So Mexican don Peter Sambai is in Kochi!
I'm standing before you
with the most important twist in the Kochi fish smuggling case.
I found out that international don Peter Sambai is behind this.
I suspect he is currently in Kochi.
My investigation team and I are at his doorstep.
I will nab him any moment now!
Sir, is it possible for Kerala Police to arrest an international don?
Will that happen soon, sir?
This isn't Kerala Police, son.
S.I. Rajat Menon... Err...
This is S.I. Rajat Menon!
- Sir, just one more question. - Okay?
I checked the Dark Web, but I couldn't find any details about Sambai.
But would a person like Sambai
conduct a smuggling deal with a local team in Ernakulam?
I found Sambai's file.
Gilberto, Cali Cartel...
Griselda Blanco...
Peter Sambai, Mundak Cartel
How strange! There isn't even one photo of the guy.
If we could find my dad's diary, we might get more details.
- Where could it be? - But this Sambai...
Hey! Put everything back! Dad is here!
- We're so busted! - Don't wipe the dust. He'll notice!
- Freeze! - Huh? What does that mean?
Hands up!
- You do it. Why should I? - Come.
- You too, hands up! - Why should I?
Don't move!
Why are you here at this hour?
Why? Can't I be here?
Sir, we were just studying a case upstairs.
It's probably just a missing dog or cat case!
Such dark vibes! Come, let's go!
Eat something before you leave.
I don't want anything!
We have dried fish and mango chutney today.
In that case, I'll eat!
[praying in Spanish]
He said, 'Get out, you dog!'
- Amen. - Okay, then. Amen.
Only two eggs left. You don't eat eggs, uncle?
Two boiled eggs... with lunch.
It's a habit I picked up in Mexico.
Some habits should be dropped after a certain age.
Hey, kiddo!
When I was your age,
I was a famous detective juggling several high-profile criminal cases!
Were you in the circus?
- Ask him directly. - He'll bring the house down!
When you mention the name Detective Alula,
all of Latin America trembles in fear!
- Even now! - Oh, sure!
Have you heard about Sambai, uncle?
Mexican don Peter Mundak Sambai.
Huh?!
What happened? Did a fish thorn get stuck in his throat?
It's fine. It's a sardine thorn.
Peter Sambai and I...
We had a strong emotional bond.
Even though I was a detective and he was a don,
my personality and Sambai's were polar opposites.
Because of that, it often led to conflicts.
- Incompatibility! - It seems he was beaten to a pulp!
But he is a nice person. A true Gemini!
- Police say that international don Peter Sambai
- is the mastermind behind Kochi fish smuggling case.
- Rumours are circulating that Sambai has arrived in Kochi.
- I'm standing before you with the most important twist...
Huh!!
- ...international don Peter Sambai is behind this.
Sam... Sambai is in Kochi?!
Yes.
He's an old friend of yours, right?
You two can plan a reunion.
Want to hear some news that'll make you even happier?
Do you know who is going to investigate Sambai's case?
Who is it?
Our Tony!
Huh!
Tony has reached new heights without us even knowing it, Tony's Dad!
No!
Get out! You will go after Sambai,
and he will come here looking for you!
Don't ever set foot in this house again!
If Sambai has come to Kochi,
it is for one reason only.
The one thing the CIA, FBI, and Interpol couldn't obtain
despite their tireless efforts is right here with me!
Sambai's photo!
I was sure that Sambai would come here one day,
looking for me, the one who took that photo.
But one thing is certain.
Sitting in some corner of the world,
Sambai must be spinning the wheels of his underworld empire.
He must be spinning it...
What is this? Are you not finished yet?
Oh my goodness!
Listen...
You need to wash those bedsheets again.
It's your fault. You never do any work properly.
You are so useless!
Nonsense! Damn it!
Lollymol...
Can't we just use the mixer grinder for this?
Absolutely not! It must be ground with the grinding stone!
Only if you use the grinding stone will the idlis be fluffy as flowers!
Come on, grind!
Nonsense! Stupid to the core!
- Police say that international don Peter Sambai
- is the mastermind of the Kochi fish smuggling case.
- Rumours are circulating that Sambai has arrived in Kochi.
- The Kochi Police have stepped up the manhunt for Sambai.
Oh my God!
- Peter Mundak Sambai is also suspected of being behind the highway murders...
They won't let me live in peace!
- SI Rajat Menon, the lead investigating officer,
- released these details to the press.
- Mustafa... - Sir?
- We need to meet. - Okay.
Today!
- Hey Yaqat...
- Any progress since you went to Kochi?
- How comfortable are you in that apartment?
Bhai, how do you know that?
- I have predetermined your every move.
- I am the Mexican don, Peter Mundak Sambai!
I'm on it, Bhai.
I'll give you an update soon.
Okay then.
Sir... Sir, what about the missing child case?
- I'll finish you, you dog catcher!
That case is solved!
Tony Jose Alula!
He is the kidnapper.
He is some kind of a detective.
- Major breakthrough in the case of the missing student Diya.
- CCTV footage showing the girl leaving with a man named Tony Jose Alula
- has now surfaced.
- Police are now investigating
- if he is linked to other missing person cases in the city.
Now, Kaikeyi will be mine!
- Menon uncle! - Hello my boy...
- I'm here. - Oh, you're arrived?
- You know my busy schedule, right? - Yes, yes.
No matter how busy I am,
not seeing you at least once a month just feels wrong.
- Am I Lord Ayyappa that you must visit me monthly?
Oh, you're hilarious, uncle! I have rung the doorbell.
- I didn't hear anything, son.
Oh no!
10-B...
Uncle, I'm at the wrong door.
I'm on a different floor.
- I knew you would go astray! - One sec. I'm coming.
- Tell me, Baby. - Hold that bag properly!
- Hi aunty! - Oh, hi Rajat!
- Working on a new case? - Of course!
- Two big cases! - Oh!
It's related to a small fish that is worth crores!
- Platinum Ammonia. - Arowana!
Yeah, Aravana!
Hey man!
Nice cap!
- I have three more. - Oh!
- Hello? - The missing kid case is totally messed up!
- Where are you now, bro?
I'm close by.
- Where are you? - I... I'm laying low.
You don’t trust me, huh?
- No. Because you are involved.
Yeah, I figured.
Alright, hang up. They could be tapping our phones.
- Oh no! - Okay then.
- All the rituals have been prescribed. You may leave.
- Next! - Oh, okay.
[chanting mantra]
One... Let this one remain here.
You're an atheist, aren't you?
You can tell from this?
That's not necessary.
I saw it on the TV news.
My dear Panicker, I didn't do anything!
These cases have fallen on my head.
Where is that girl right now?
That's what I came here to ask you!
- Listen carefully. - Okay.
Pay attention.
What is all this?
This is the Sultan of Brunei.
He sent ten Platinum Arowana fish to his girlfriend.
He hires Kanaka Sabhapathy to deliver them.
He has two henchmen, Silva and Maqbool.
On the way, some guy named Shaji attacked them.
- Then what? - Then, Shaji kills Silva.
- Who's behind Shaji? - Who?
- The Mangalore don, Yaqat Ali. - Woah!
- And behind Yaqat Ali? - Huh!?
The international don, Peter Mundak Sambai.
Your stars are in a complete state of chaos!
- This is Ketu. - No.
That's the Sultan of Brunei. Leave him there.
- And this one? - That is his girlfriend.
That one is Kanaka Sabhapathi.
That is Shaji. The one who killed Silva!
Huh?!
Ah, yes! This is the problem!
Silva is already dead. That is not the problem.
Huh! It's not this either?
Silva!
- Sabhapathi's godown is in Thrippunithura.
- Silva's body was found on the Aluva-Munnar highway.
- So, Silva must have had a different plan!
- But since Silva is dead...
- Yes! Tower dumping!
- I need to get Silva's call history.
- Hey... Hello. - Tell me.
I need... I sent you a number. Get me its details.
Not possible!
Yeah, where are you?
- I'm right here. - Where?
Will this help you get out of this mess?
Your police force didn't even check this!
The case was led astray by Sabapathi's gang.
I had checked it.
One more thing. Don't call me for such things again.
- I will call you. - I won't answer.
I will post on Facebook how you peed your pants in class back then!
I think I just went!
Yikes! What did you do, Sibu?!
Fine, just call me.

Yes, sir.
- They are not here, sir. - No??

- On the day he died, Silva called one specific number from his phone.
- That number is now switched off.
- Calls were made from that number to two other numbers.
- Both of those are now switched off too.
- One of these three numbers will give me a lead to Diya.
- Since these three phones are off, I will add them to our app for tracking.
- I will get an alert if any of these phones are turned on.
- Hey, there is another way.
- Grab-it!
Hello Ann...
- Can you do me a favour? - Yeah.
I'll send you three numbers.
Can you tell me if there are any details for those numbers in your database?
- In the Grab-it database? - Yes.
Hello!
- Handle with care! - Of course!
- If this leaks, I'll be fired! - All the best.
- Finally, Grab-it has proven useful!
El Dorado apartment!
10-B.
Kaikeyi's apartment!
Hey...
I've sent you a flat number.
It's in your building.
Just knock on the door,
find out who the residents are, and update me.
If they ask, just say you got the wrong flat.
- Hey, I'm outside. I'll call you when I get home.
10B.
Is her apartment an underworld den now?
Lolly!
Coffee!
You call this "hot" coffee, Dilu?
Uff! This guy can't do a single thing right!
- I will get my revenge tonight, you witch!
Damn it!
Boss...
What was it today, boss?
Did Madam become suspicious after seeing the TV news?
Err...
We didn't have much of a choice back then, right?
That's why we did it, right?
You've got to do something, boss.
We've been on the run for so long!
Things have been dire since we fled Mexico.
Interpol and police are still on our trail.
That detective who took your photograph that day!
All our men went after him to catch him.
That was the day everything started falling apart.
I'll never forget his face!
Sooner or later, he's going to fall into my hands!
Mustafa... food... food...
Boss...
We must quickly find a safe hideout from the police
and a way to eat at least one meal a day.
This is our only option now. There's nothing else we can do.
'48-year-old young Menon woman invites marriage proposals.'
How about we try this?
Please cooperate for the sake of the Mundakkayam cartel.
She began torturing me that very day!
If I even try to argue, that wretch immediately calls the police!
- Oh my!
What about the fish deal, boss?
- Nothing happened! - Oh no!
That Yaqat Ali is right here in this building!
All I wanted was to make some cash from that deal,
get a fake passport, and somehow make it to Mexico!
But that damn dog and its poop are distracting me!
I wonder when that thing is going to chew those grenades and kill us!
Mustafa... Mustafa!
Do something!
I can't handle that disgusting dog!
We'll get rid of it for good this time, boss.
Babool messed up that day. And so did I.
The dog was sent with the team that went to get the fish.
But somehow it ended up back here.
Err... what about our tools?
Since she never enters the kitchen,
all our equipment is very safe.
Ah, that's a relief.
Do we need to get our hands dirty, boss?
No need.
Until Yaqat somehow finds that fish,
we must wait.
Alright, boss.
Just put that dog in a sack and leave it outside your door.
We will dispose of it properly this time.
Hey! What the...?
Let go of me! Hey!
I know who took the fish from the toll plaza.
I have their photograph!
Hey! Please believe me!
- Stop, stop! - Why are we doing here?
I need to sneak into this building.
Why are you so adamant about sneaking in here every night?
If I'm not wrong, some shady deals are happening in there.
Leave your motorbike here.
Don't they have parking inside?
[sings a classic romantic song]
Come quietly!
Shhh...
Give me the spray!
This...
- Hey! - The gate's wide open!
Oh no!
Hey! Let him sleep!
Hey!
He's waking up! Spray him again!
Hey!!
- Hey!! - I think he's dead!
Don't jinx it, man! Get inside!
Mustafa! Mustafa!
Mustafa!
Hey!
Oh no!
[curses in Spanish]
The spray's not gonna work!
Eww! That creep just kissed me!
Do you have another bottle?
Go that way! Go! Go!
- Did you find anything? - Aargh! This room is full of fuses!
- Just turn one of them. - There are hundreds of them!
Where are you, Kai?
If I'm guessing right, there's a girl in 5-B.
So she's probably there.
Ugh, Kai! Don't guess. Tell me for sure.
That's not it, Tony. There are only two Airbnb flats here.
I rang the bell at one and nobody answered.
So this is the only one left
5B... You go ahead. I'll call you.
- Hey Shaji! - Yaqat Bhai...
Shall I slaughter you after reciting the Bismillah?
Where were you that day, Shaji?
I had gone to the hospital to stay with my aunt's daughter
who had a fever.
I swear!
Hello?
I've got a job for you.
Where are you now?
We're in Kochi. We came here for a job.
That's great. I need you to deliver some fish somewhere this evening.
My dear friend, we're out of the fish business.
We're in a different line of work now. So, sorry.
Didn't they ask us to stop right under this Gulmohar tree?
After that, those guys called back and told me...
- Hello? - Sorry, brother.
I was wrong about what I said earlier.
No, no. It's fine. Go ahead.
We'd already picked up another gig.
But that's not a problem.
Just tell us where to take the fish, bro! We'll deliver it!
- It was those fools
- who picked up local Trevally from the Toll instead of the Platinum Arowana,
- and sent it to Mangalore by truck!
- A pet detective named Tony is also on this case searching for our fish.
- Just give me a little more time.
I have all the details.
I even have their photographs.
All I have to do is find them.
Here, look at this.
These are the guys.
You know them?
- No, Bhai. - Please don't hurt me!
So, those guys must be staying in 10B.
The girl and the fish must be with them.
Next up: Mission 10B!
So, you only open the door for food delivery guys?!
I'll show you! Have a falooda on me.
If no one answers the door at 10B, knock on the door at 5B.
I lost my autorickshaw.
Goddess, please let this new job go well!
Oh no! Yaqat Bhai!
Please don't kill me, Yaqat Bhai!
Oh no! Oh no, Yaqat Bhai!
My very first delivery! God, please give me your blessings!
Oh no! Yaqat Bhai!
Long live Amala Shaji!
Oh no!
Yes!
Shaji...!
The Lord is with you!
Phew! 118...
119...
I think all my sins are absolved.
Please open the door.
Is there no one here?
Huh?
If no one answers the door at 10B, knock on the door at 5B.
Of course, I will. Why wouldn't I?
Please don't hurt me!
Please!
Go see who it is!
Come... watch your step. The child is there, right? Okay.
No one's downstairs. Let's go.
Sir! Your faluda!
Hey, I'll check.
- Who are you? - Is he an electrician?
I was told to deliver it here, sir.
Deliver here? Who told you?
Look, that guy looks like a wizard!
- Hi! - Huh!
- Hi! - Hi...
Do you know them?
Shukkoor! That's them!
- Run! Run! - Catch them!
Catch them!
Oh no!
Don't turn it on now!
- Grab them! - Baby! Careful!
Stop! Stop!
Don't go, dear!
- Where did she go? - Come on, let's find her!
Come on!
Brother...
How do we get to the highway from here?
Go straight and...
And the girl's dad?
Talk!
Tony Jose Alula!
- He's the one-- - Where is my daughter?
I don't know where Diyamol is.
I'm looking for her too.
I have no connection to her disappearance.
Hey! Where is my daughter?
- You don't know? - I don't.
You don't know, you scoundrel?
Turn on your phone and call someone!
- Okay. - Do it! Fast!
My daughter!
- Since these three phones are off, I'll add them to our app for tracking.
- I'll get an alert if any of these phones are turned on.
If I make it out of this alive, I'll bring your daughter back safely!
Damn! His phone is switched off!
Catch him, chetta!
Stop right there!
Hey!
Whose number is this?
Just answer it and see.
Hello?
We were just fish sellers from Neendakara.
We got into this after hearing that it was easy money.
- After getting inspired by KGF, we came to Kochi to become gangsters.
- One day, we got two jobs on our phones.
- First, some guy called and said he'd send a photo and details,
- and he wanted us to kidnap a girl.
- We took up that job.
- Then, a man named Shaji called,
- asking us to get a bottle of fish from the toll plaza
- and give it to a lorry headed for Mangaluru.
- And we handled it without a hitch.
- And that same day, we also kidnapped Diyamol.
- The flat we moved into was arranged for us by that person.
- We had to tell Diyamol a bunch of lies every day to keep her with us.
Everything went smoothly for a while.
But yesterday morning...
She made us stand on our heads
because we asked if bread was enough for breakfast.
Just get the girl whatever she wants.
- I'll go buy it. - Yeah, just go.
- No matter how busy I am,
I can't stay without seeing you once in a month, Uncle.
What is it?
Police!
- Let me see. - I'm right outside.
- I have rung the doorbell. - Dude, he rang the bell!
Hello... Sir...
- Why did you call me, Shamsu?
Sir, how long are we supposed to keep going on like this with the girl?
- It is to get the girl's dad out of hiding.
- Once he's out, you're free to go.
Sir... that's not what I meant.
We haven't even asked who you are.
You gave us a contract. And we did it.
But it's been quite a few days now, hasn't it?
The girl is crying her eyes out, saying she wants to see her dad.
If you can't handle it, just say so, Shamsu.
- I'll send someone over tomorrow night.
- You hand the girl over to him and get out of there.
- Got it? - But, Sir... this morning, the police showed up here.
- I'll handle that.
- You don't have to worry about the girl anymore.
- Just do what I said. Got it?
- With that, we decided to drop the whole thing and take the girl back home.
Come on, dear. Let's go.
Damn it!
She was right in front of our eyes this whole time!
Hey, don't be upset.
You will rescue her!
What's the situation at your building?
It's total chaos.
Nobody has a clue what really happened last night.
The building association made a big commotion.
And on top of that, aunty is screaming her head off...
because her dog, Kannan, is missing.
- Wait a minute! Kannan is with the child!
- Didn't I put a GPS tracker on Kannan's collar?
What are you thinking?
♪ The Pet Detective ♪
[To Shamsu - Found Diyamol's location]
Hey!
I'm out of here tonight.
Finish the girl.
Because of your love for dogs, the police might also come looking.
So you'd better get out of here too.
Hello Bhai...
A pet detective named Tony found out everything about our fish deal.
My gang has spotted him.
Shall we kill him?
- Your dog! - Pet detectives!
One lakh?!
No need.
[in Spanish] I will kill them all!
How are you, Arnold?
I had asked Maqbool if he would join us.
- He isn't interested. - Did you tell him about me?
No. I didn't take any names.
Maqbool escaped when they attacked.
I'm taking the route to Munnar.
Bro, Maqbool is the one who betrayed us.
His daughter is missing too.
It is to get the girl's dad out of hiding.
Once he's out, you're free to go.
- Hello dear... - Hi uncle!
Could you give me a ride into town?
I need to drop off some rice for grinding.
Just give me five minutes. I'll get changed.
Okay.
Uncle, where are we going?
You just drive where I tell you.

- Come, let's go! - Go!
- Hello? - Hello Tony...
Sambai's gang has kidnapped me.
- Sambai's gang? - Yes.
The Sambai we've been looking for...
- You know who it really is? - Who?
It's Dilraj uncle!
One minute! One minute!
It's becoming a tangled web!
- Okay, go on. - Tony...
- Huh? - Stop playing games.
If you want your girlfriend back alive,
come here with our fish!
Shukkoor, send him the location.
- Hello? - Listen carefully.
If you want the child to live,
bring me my fish!
The child is in the fish tank.
If she's underwater for two minutes, she'll die!
Okay. I'll bring you the fish.
But I'll send you the location and time.
I'll be there!

Wouldn't they run away if they saw our uniforms?

- Look here! - Careful, sir!
- Shoot him! - No! I am a tourist, sir!
Give that to me! I'll shoot!
She is saying she wants pizza.
- Isn't it? - Really?
Hey Tony!
Platinum Aravana worth 30 crores!
An international don that the entire world has been searching for!
- Come over here! - Who, me??
And who caught them both?
Inspector Rajat Menon!
- Yeah!!! - Yeah!
Stop there!
Kaikeyi...
I pity you! I'm off to collect my award.
Tony...
Are you a police officer?
No, dear.
Detective!
- Tony! - Yes.
Where is the original fish?
And so, a tale that began in Mexico years ago reaches its final chapter,
right here in our very own Kochi.
To every reader, including yourselves, who took this novel to heart...
[in Spanish] 'Thanks to all of you!'
- Sir? - That was "thank you".
So sir, what happened to Peter Sambai?
He fell right into my hands.
When he cried and begged at my feet, I decided to forgive him.
- Let him survive somewhere washing dishes for all I care!
[in Spanish] Poor soul!
Sir, you said yourself that this novel blends reality with fiction.
- Yes. - I have a question.
Are you saying that
Tony really handed over the fish worth 30 crores to the police?
He is just a normal detective, isn't he?
What else would he do?
He doesn't have my calibre.
He handed over all the fish to the police, got a bouquet in return,
and is now back to playing detective, chasing cats and dogs!
An absolute idiot!
- People believe the Platinum Arowana is a fish that brings good fortune.
- Just when all the problems have died down
- and I thought of returning the fish to the police,
- my 'great fortune' revealed itself!
