Hey, what are you doing?
I'm painting Sankasur's beard.
Is it?
Good.
Let me take a look.
Wow.
Well done.
Smart boy.
Come, have some porridge.
Not now.
Enough painting.
Bloody hell, there's a power cut again.
It's better in the dark.
Scoot off!
Sume...
Listen Sume...
What?
Come inside.
What for?
I need something.
What is it?
- Get inside, slut. - Leave me.
- Stop asking questions. - Let me go.
- Just do as I say. - Leave me.
What if he breaks his promise?
If he does, I'll set him right.
He's back.
Yes.
- I'll go... - No wait.
- Give me alcohol. - Huh?
Alcohol.
I'll give you
but you must keep watch.
Understood?
Babdya, tell him. Just give me alcohol.
- Give it. It's getting late. - Hold on, it might spill.
- Give it to me. - Give it.
Let's go.
Leave me you, idiot.
Leave me.
- Leave me you, idiot. - Dad...
Dad, mom is screaming!
Dad...
- Dad... - Let her scream, go away.
Let me go.
Dad, mom is screaming.
Hey!
I won't spare you now.
Oh no!
My elbow's hurt.
My head too.
Bloody witch, hit me!
Your wife is a wretch.
She thinks no end of herself.
I'll make sure she's humbled.
Bloody freeloader!
- Give it back. - Let go.
Let's go.
Give it back.
- I'll convince her, give me the alcohol. - Bloody freeloader.
Listen, Hemya. Babdya...
Just die, you witch.
- Because of you, I don't get alcohol. - No...
You won't dare to refuse me again.
Bloody witch.
I couldn't drink because of you. Sit.
You should have slept with them, when told you to do.
Bloody Idiot.
- Sume. - Go to hell.
Sume.
- Open the door, Sume. - Oh no!
I'll thrash you black and blue.
Sume, open the door.
Sume.
Open the door, Sume.
Mom, don't cry.
Sankasur will surely punish dad.
Open the door, Sume.
Sume...
Keep this in mind, Sume.
Open the door.
Sume.
Open the door.
Otherwise I'll kill you.
Sume.
Are you opening the door.
What are you doing?
Open the door.
I've told you
I won't play Sankasur any more.
Dear god,
drill some sense into this man.
Listen, Mr Gadre is here.
Ask him to leave.
Sada, he'll pay for every act.
Is it?
Of course.
To hell with the money.
We become murder suspects every year.
For some time, no cases were registered
but now a new officer took charge.
He too thinks Sankasur is the culprit.
The other day
he was literally staring at me.
Bloody hell!
No, I won't play Sankasur. Ask him to leave.
Have you lost it?
The police arrested Shankar Mhadik.
What?
Yes.
Shankar Mhadik is arrested.
Just take up the job offered.
Step out and seal the deal.
Or you'll see the worst of me.
You haven't done anything for me since we married.
No!
Earning a few pennies won't hurt.
I want gold bangles this new year
or I'll leave for good.
Then you can hide in shame.
Mr Gadre,
I'll make tea for you.
Shankar is the murderer?
Sir,
I didn't do anything.
Look,
I argued with Rajan over the goddess' palanquin.
It's a trivial thing, happens every time.
You can ask the villagers.
Sir, that doesn't mean I killed him.
I swear.
Bhide...
Sir, the thing is
I borrowed money from Rajan
for my poultry business.
I was short of money when Rajan asked for the borrowed money
so he took my chain.
You expect me to believe you.
Sir, I'm telling the truth.
Sir, I have it on papers.
All the evidence you want is at home.
I didn't kill him.
Sankasur killed him.
They were all sinners.
I'm sure he did something wrong.
Santosh Kandare, age 28
Santya stole money from the temple's donation box
to splurge on women and alcohol
while his wife and kids starved. It's obvious
Sankasur didn't forgive him.
Ramchandra Shitab, age 51
He forged Mistry's land deed and sold the land to a hotelier
then he fled to Mumbai.
He returned to the village on Holi
and Sankasur dealt with him.
Pranav Kokate, age 45
That man
made our girls
dance in an orchestra
and sold them in the city.
Nobody dared to speak against him.
But Sankasur
doesn't discriminate between rich and poor.
Once a man errs,
punishment is inevitable.
All of this
is Sankasur's doing.
Leave. Leave. Leave me.
- Leave me. - Hey, get up.
Why are you sleeping?
Police!
You were at Shankar Mhadik's house as Sankasur.
I didn't do anything, sir.
I'm innocent.
When the police arrived,
you were petrified.
What are you hiding?
Catch him.
Ganesh, don't run.
- Don't run. - Sir...
- Bhide, get him.
- Bhide, don't let him get away. - Sir... listen to me
Sir... sir... sir...
He went towards the pool.
You go there, I'll go this way.
- Go on. - Run!
Run...!
Hey...
Ganesh, stop.
- Ganesh, stop running. - Ganesh, stop.
- Don't make me chase you. - Ganesh, stop.
Ganesh!
Catch him.
- Arrest him. - Grab him.
I told you not to run.
Wearing a mask
doesn't hide the eyes, Ganesh bhau.
- Okay? - Sir, I didn't do anything.
I swear on god, I'm innocent.
People from Kokan love swearing on god.
Why did you run?
Sir...
Speak up.
This morning
you arrested Shankar bhau.
So?
You found his gold chain.
But the pendant was missing.
That
pendant is with me.
Ganpati locket?
Why is this with you, scoundrel?
Rajan bhau gave it to me.
He did?
Rajan bhau
was a nice man.
My daughter fell while fetching water from the river.
It was slippery.
Doctor said he broke her bones.
I didn't have money for her operation.
Rajan bhau met me on the night of Holi.
On the murder night?
Where?
After the act, I went to the liquor shop.
My mind was a mess.
I couldn't help my poor child.
Rajan bhau came there.
He asked me to sell this to get the surgery done.
I refused
because I knew
Shankar bhau mortgaged the pendant.
So, I refused, sir.
But he insisted said
my daughter's life is at stake.
Her legs need treatment.
So, I took it.
But tragedy struck at dawn.
How can I sell this?
Sankasur won't spare me.
Sankasur will punish me.
I don't want this, set me free.
Set me free, sir.
What's your name?
Manisha Ganesh Korde.
Keep this for the operation.
No, sir...
Keep it.
Or he'll beat you.
Take it.
Take care of her.
Dhumal,
Nimkar Girls School.
Nimkar?
Rajan Nimkar started this school.
Girls weren't allowed to travel to the city
so he started this school.
Dhumal, Sankasur only kills sinners, right?
Yes.
You?
I'm Sanket Raut.
I teach here.
How many students do you have?
Not many, around 30.
Give or take a few.
And teachers?
Me and Samay madam.
Vahini handles the rest.
- Who? - Sarika vahini.
Rajan's wife, Sarika Nimkar.
Rajan was a noble soul.
He did a lot for this village.
Sarika and Rajan were a match made in heaven.
Dear Vishwas,
I chose to record this instead of writing a letter.
Because...
Anytime you feel like fighting with me
listen to this cassette
to feel the sweetness of my love.
Thus we will never fight.
You see,
your love has me enslaved.
What say?
Am I right, darling?
You'll wonder why I'm being dramatic today.
You like
all things filmy and dramatic.
As for me,
I just want to do what you like.
Forever.
You're not just my love
but my life.
I want to be with you for life, Vishwas.
When will you take me home?
Let's...
Vishwas!
Have something to eat and drink.
I'll be happy.
Come.
Here.
Anna...
- Don't... - Have it, you need it.
Anna...
You had fever last night.
Why mess with your health?
You can drink pegs, let me have just one.
Drink up.
Sorrows should be celebrated.
This case won't stand a chance in the court of love no matter the evidence.
For a girl, her parents are the ultimate authority.
Many years have passed.
Just forget her.
Have you forgotten mom?
Well
memories never die.
Tell me this. What made you
think of the trunk today?
You have a murder case to solve.
Say something, Vishwas.
Unburden yourself.
Sarika.
Sarika!
Sarika Rajan Nimkar.
Sarika is Rajan's wife.
What?
Did you meet her?
Did you speak to her?
How could I?
I saw her and...
Is she doing all right?
She lost her husband.
Should I meet her?
Anna, don't complicate things further.
I see.
You're not concerned about the new case
but an old one!
Anna,
Sarika has nothing to do with this case.
Then?
Rajan Nimkar...
is the odd man out of the victim list.
The villagers say he was a good man.
They also say
Sankasur kills sinners.
Do you also believe
in the villagers' fantasy?
No, on one hand it seems like a serial killer's pattern
on the other,
the villagers say Sankasur is behind it.
Listen,
you're a cop.
Cops shouldn't make hasty decisions.
Answer it.
Hello.
Tell me.
Congratulations.
You'll arrest him soon.
Arrest who?
Sankasur.
Meaning?
It's a confirmed murder.
Rajan was hit with a bamboo pole on the head.
Also, the white hair you found
came from a wild cow's tail.
What?
Wild cow?
Yes, I'm also confused.
But don't ignore this point.
There were marks of whiplash on his back
so the intention was revenge.
There is something you need to know.
Lungs were heavy, so cause of death is very clear.
He died due to drowning.
There was a major struggle before he died.
I found skin samples in his teeth.
The one who killed the victim
was bitten by the victim.
I've sent the skin sample for DNA testing.
Let's wait for the detailed report.
You see,
whoever the culprit is,
you will surely find
bite marks on his body.
