He didn’t throw mud in your eyes…
He threw it at your judgment.
- Sir.. - What Sir?
Tomorrow we have to produce him before the court.
What’s the point of standing here helplessly now?
‘Hanuma is there… he’ll handle it…’ How much did we support you?
At least say he’s dead.. please.
Sir, now I feel that this was his escape plan.
Very good.
A man swims across crocodile-infested waters and escapes.
And you call that planning is it?
Tell me the truth.
You helped him get away. Isn’t it?
Hanumesha, You cared more about his daughter..
..than even he would have.
Tell us the truth.
You helped him escape. Yes or no?
Sir?
You know everything, sir.. yet you still say this?
With your own hands, you’ve ruined your career.
This is your mistake. You will have to face it.
No..No..No..
As per procedure he’s certain to lose his job.
All these days..
it was home and station..
from now on, it’ll be court and station.
-Sir..
- He throw mud on my eyes.. - Hey stop it.
No reason will justify what you’ve done.
The mistake is on your side.
Before leaving..
Handover your gun and ID card.
You let him escape because you were afraid his..
..daughter would be left an orphan. didn’t you?
He didn’t throw mud in your eyes.. He threw it at your judgement.
You cared more about his daughter than even he would have.
You’ve got a soft corner for them.
The mother will be born again..
She will protect you.
You’re like my son.
Pick the phone man.
- Ha..Hello Yellappa. - Tell me, sir?
Wherever you are, Go to Beera’s house and..
-..check if his daughter is there. - Ok sir.
I’ll come there directly.
- Ok sir.. - Haa.
- Sir.. - Yes Elappa..
I’m at Beera’s house. It’s locked, sir. No one is here.
- Even his daughter is not there? - No sir.
Did you check their neighbour Kalyani’s house?
I check their house too. No one is there too sir.
Did he get away?
[Takes a deep breath]
Sir?
Oh no..
Jyothi..
Oh no. Where did my daughter go?
Jyothi dear?
Hey Jyothi..
Kalyani?
My dear..
Jyothi!
Oh no.. [Beera wailing]
Sir?
Where is my daughter?
She is not here.
How did you get to know about this place?
The time for questions and answers is over, Beera.
The moment you confessed to the murder I knew about this place.
As soon as you told me you saved Kalyani,..
I came here and checked it myself.
I trusted your word.
Even after everything I did for you. You still betrayed me, Isn’t it?
It’ll be foolish of me to trust your words again.
I will not let that happen.
You must pay for everything you’ve done and suffer..
..till your last breath.
Sir..
There is no more lying.
What is left is to tell you the truth.
I fold my hands before you, sir..
Until..
..you promise me to show me my daughter’s face..
I will not move an inch from here, sir.
I should give you a promise is it?
I will..
that until you die you will never see your daughter. I can promise you this.
Please don’t tell that Hanumesh sir..
Please don’t. I beg you, sir.
I’ll even fall at your feet if I must.
You did so much for me.
Please do this one thing.
Otherwise..
If I don’t see my daughter’s face, I won’t live, sir.
That’s good.
That’s really good.
Just like you spun a story about everyone falling into a crocodile’s jaws..
I’ll the same about you to your daughter that..
..even you were dragged away by a crocodile.
Without ever seeing her face again you’ll rot in prison until you die.
That’s the punishment you deserve.
And how will you give me that punishment, sir?
What proof do you have?
[deep exhale]
My entire life..
I’m just Beerappa..
..a daily-wage laborer struggling for one meal a day.
My wife is actually my younger brother’s wife.
I never even dreamed of marrying her.
She had eloped with my brother.
My brother died in an road accident.
When he died..
She also tried to commit suicide.
After he died, if she had gone back to her parents’ house,..
..her own brothers would have beaten her and hanged her
Hmm.
Who was to blame for her fate? So I married her, sir.
I couldn’t be a good husband..
Nor could I be a good father to my daughter.
Even my mother..
..chanting God’s name. left me and passed away.
If my mother left remembering God,..
..my wife left abandoning even our daughter.
After that,all I had was my child.
I was her world, sir.
My life was already ruined.
I couldn’t let my daughter’s life be destroyed too.
For her future,..
I decided I wouldn’t hesitate to do anything.
That’s why..
I spread the story that there was treasure buried by the river.
Hunger sir, Just Hunger.
Whoever we are..
Don’t we all need money just to fill our stomachs?
I cannot arrest you without a single proof, Beera.
But you had told me one thing.. Do you remember it?
Every murder has an answer.
But instead of who did it..
If we find out why they did it, we will surely get answers.
You told me right?
Hey, crocodile boy..
You were strutting around last time.
How did you get caught now?
Sir, why don’t these cases get solved?
You see Renuka..
Let’s assume we find a dead body.
- Hmm. - That..
Let it be partially decomposed or fully decomposed, it doesn’t matter.
But we need to have the full body with us.
Only then we can find out who it is, when they died and who killed them.
- Sir tea.. - Keep it there.
In some cases..
We only find the head and not the body.
If that happens, then case gets closed.
Oh..
After what Virupaksha sir said..
I remembered the one body I had buried.
Most of the people I had killed..
I threw their bodies to the crocodiles and walked away clean.
But that night, fear crept in.. what if someone finds the body?
That day I went to the river bed and started digging.
That was a very big mistake I did.
Hey, who’s it?
What’re you doing there?
I left the half-dug grave as it was and ran for my life.
I came back to the station to just show my face..
But there was a lot of work at the station.
The half-buried body started to smell.
Dogs came and tore at it.
By the time people gathered, the entire body had surfaced.
Someone called the police.
Since there was a huge crowd, the police were..
..pushing everyone back.
They let me inside without checking, because I was from the station.
At the right moment,..
I told Kalyani to scream that a crocodile had appeared.
I made all the officers rush the other way.
After everyone left..
I was alone. I took the head and left.
But..
You did everything right?
Then, why did police arrest you?
They found my weapon there.
This weapon is used by Kumbara community to make pottery sir.
I tried to mislead them,saying it belonged to a potter’s family.
That is when I got cursed I think..
My bad time start since then..
Next day another body was found in the river..
When the police started pursuing the case seriously,..
I did everything I could to throw them off track.
Inspector Virupaksha told me to confess sir..
Because of which they threw me out of the station.
When I was sitting at home and thinking what to do?
I got an idea.
Behind my house..
Sand thieves used to park their vehicles for days.
I let them be… poor men trying to survive.
But that day,
I thought if they caught them, they would again let me into the station.
So, I tipped them off..
Don’t take what happened at the station today to heart.
Come to the station tomorrow.
And the next day, I was back in the station.
A small mistake of mine made the police come to my doorstep.
This time I wanted to close all the loopholes..
So I took them to a liquor shop.
Brother, the one who fought with you that day over fried fish?
Oh, that son of a b****. He was sitting right here.
I don’t think Beera has done anything wrong.
First we’ve to find that drunkard.
They say our karma catches up with us.
Those sand thieves and their owner..
Got the goldsmith arrest.
Hey Beerappa..
You had also come to our shop to pledge something right?
That goldsmith blurted out that I came to pledge Siddappa’s chain in his shop.
After seeing the CCTV footage.. The police caught me.
That is how I was caught.
For a person who is always working at the police station..
Won’t he know what is an FIR?
But I made them believe that I didn’t know about it.
Because I had made them believe that I am the “dumb” Beerappa to them.
I got beaten by them. Still I didn’t open my mouth.
That day I understood that..
If I let them, they would keep beating me.
The only way is to hoodwink them and get out of here.
That’s why I slowly started to tell them one by one.
Elappa sir?
I just hit him with what I got in my hand,sir.
Pakiresha, Bheemanna, Nagappa.. Shivappa..
Lakshmana, Siddalingesha sir.
He has killed 8 people.
Hanumesh sir was a trustable person so..
I started to use him.
Wear your clothes, Beera.
We’ve to go out.
I thought I will kill him one day and..
..leave the village with my daughter and Kalyani.
But I knew..without finding the head..
..they can’t put me in jail.
That’s how I turned the whole police station into my circus.
But without my knowledge..
My fate was being written by another person.
Who was that person man and Why did you go to bury him?
You should’ve also fed him to the crocodile.
[Beera grunts]
[Sighs] [exhales]
[Dry leaves crunch underfoot]
[puffing] [deep breath]
Please save my daughter.
What happened? Oh god..
What happened to her madam?
Which snake? I’ll get the medicine.
There aren’t many good people left in this world.
No matter what we do,we can never repay a good man’s kindness.
I didn’t have the heart to throw such a man to the crocodiles.
The man who saved my daughter’s life…
Burying him with dignity was my duty.
For killing such a good man,..
Mother Yellamma herself has cursed me.
2000 rupees.
If we had caught the crocodile. They would’ve paid us more.
Leave us. They must surely give you sir.
Serial killer case.. Missing head.
That crocodile nuisance.. if it was someone else..
They wouldn’t be able to handle this case, sir.
I have done nothing here.
Aha!
It’s Jyothi who solved the case.
What’re you saying sir?
Do you remember we had got a missing girl case?
In that school group picture..
I saw Basavaraj and his wife together.
And the same photo was in Beerappa’s house too..
In that too, they both were there.
That means..
Both the girls studied in the same school.
But the master missing case..
Just like other cases had seen a dead end.
When I was bit by a snake. He was the one who saved me.
I like him a lot,sir.
Is it?
Sir, I will drop her to school and come back.
Whenever the master’s name was taken..Beerappa acted weird.
First even I failed to understand why..
But..
Your master. Is it him?
I understood that Jyothi’s life was saved by Basavaraj,
But why did Beera kill the teacher is what I am not getting..
If Beera knew it was Basavaraj,,
Beera wouldn’t have killed him itself.
Master’s wife.
That teacher?
She always said remember..
Basavaraj used to always go by the river bed to relax.
To take in some fresh air.
That was unfortunately the last location he saw.
Poor man.. Maybe that day
He saw something he should never have seen.
[clicks tongue]
A killer never thinks twice before committing murder.
But, before Beera got to know who it is, it was too late.
Otherwise, he would’ve cut the body into pieces.
Which is why..
The moment he got to know who it is..
He decided to bury the teacher.
That means..
So, out of immense respect he decided to give him a burial. Right?
[Hanumu chuckles]
For him..
His daughter was his life. His entire world.
He had even planned to hack me to death.
He knew that until no one finds the head, he is safe.
In the end..
He dug his own grave.
[Yellappa laughs]
After he was gone..
He didn’t want her to be left alone.
He wanted her to have both parents.
For such children..The world doesn’t show any mercy..
And even fathers like Beera, are born in vain on this earth.
Jyothi..
Sir, but how did he confess about the head?
The way he woved his lies and made us to believe his stories.
Same way, I also told him a lie that he believed.
Every murder has an answer.
More than who did it, its important to find out why they did it to get answers.
Correct right?
“Basavaraj’s wife has given a statement that the body belongs to her husband.
We have already identified the “headless” body.
We know that you have killed him too.
The man who saved your daughter’s life didn’t get a dignified death.
If you have any humanity left,..
make sure he gets justice in the end.
For all the sins you’ve committed..
Pray to Yellavva that your daughter has to never suffer for it.
Your daughter is in the care of a police family.
There is not much difference between police and criminals!
Beep.
