Let me tell you another one.
So, these two laborers are digging in Kohima, okay?
-Suddenly, they hit something. -Okay.
It sounds like metal.
The laborer's eyes light up.
He shrieks,
"Brother, looks like I've hit the jackpot."
They quickly dig some more.
-And guess what it turns out to be? -What?
A bomb.
A Second World War bomb.
The laborer says, "Looks like I need the shitpot."
Hey, brother!
Can you not talk about bombs and wars in front of these kids?
These kids are from Langchoma, you see.
How bad was it?
The villagers got caught in the crossfire between the rebels.
This lot… They lost members of their family.
And you see that boy over there?
He lost his entire clan.
Come on out, kids.
Come.
I don't go to church as often as I should,
but I do believe in the Lord.
And He will not let anyone in this world be without a father figure.
He will find you a new father.
If not, He'll become one for you.
Yes.
Go, go, go!
Phone!
Watch.
Take off your clothes.
Clothes! Clothes!
Are you alone?
Answer me!
-Don't get too close. -Okay.
Let this idiot pass.
Check the tracker.
The phone is switched off.
We're getting the signal from the jacket piece.
-Keep your eyes on the tracker. -Okay, ma'am.
Here, wear this.
Overtake this white car.
Go.
What the fuck?
We're heading toward the highway.
There's no way they'll take the highway.
They know we're checking every car on that route.
Turn around!
Go back to where we came from, quick!
Stop.
Reverse.
Isn't this the same car?
Looks like it.
Chaudhary is somewhere here.
Of course! Christmas holidays.
Call backup.
Reverse.
I came alone to meet you.
And I'd like to meet you alone.
Alright, what do you want to know?
Who killed ACP Ansari?
You were there.
Who was it?
It was a sniper.
Why did you threaten Bajoria?
Bajoria, who?
The thing is, Reuben,
I'm here because we can help each other out.
You hear me?
So, whatever you know, you’ve got to tell me.
Why did you threaten Bajoria not to buy Reddy's hotels?
Because those hotels were built from my father's money, not Reddy's.
You mean the money
Thom made smuggling drugs?
Reddy used to launder that money, right?
He is a snake.
My father wasn't supposed to be a part of the summit in Delhi.
He went only because of Reddy.
Meaning?
My father didn't give a shit about development in Nagaland.
All he cared about was money, and he was making it.
Then why did he agree to go?
I don't know.
Something happened at the last minute.
He changed the party slogan overnight.
"The new dawn of development."
Yeah, right! Bloody liars.
How long have you known Rose?
She was your sister Rachel's friend, right?
Your mother used to send one lakh rupees to Rose every month…
for the last eight years.
Did you know that?
If a woman is willing to take the risk
of paying off her husband's mistress without the husband's knowledge…
There can only be one reason for it.
She feels guilty for something.
Can I ask you something?
Your sister, Rachel…
Why did she commit suicide?
Careful, officer.
Don't go there.
Maybe she found out about her father's…
involvement with her friend--
Stop talking about my family.
You don't know anything.
Then let me tell you what I know.
I went to Rose's house.
Met her family.
Something struck me as strange. While the mother keeps cursing Thom…
Thom was a monster.
…the father was crying his heart out at his funeral.
He had worked for my father for many years.
What kind of a father
grieves the death of a man who ruined his daughter's life?
It can only mean one thing.
Bullshit.
I no father.
I no daughter.
He's not Rose's father.
Thom is.
And your sister found that out.
She didn't kill herself because her father was sleeping with her friend.
It was because he was sleeping with his own daughter--
You piece of shit!
You say one more word about my family,
and I swear I will shoot you.
Thom has a child with Rose.
She was just a kid.
And she looked up to him.
But he used her.
My father, he used Rose.
I don't know if it was Rose who killed my father.
But if she did…
she did the right thing.
He got what he deserved.
I didn't go there to kill Rose.
My plan was to get her across the border
so my father's men couldn't get to her.
That's where ACP Ansari got killed.
And I got framed for it.
Maybe that's the price a son needs to pay for his father's sins.
You should surrender, Reuben.
Become a witness for the state.
SP Barua and I will do our best to help you.
At least you will live.
I'm not afraid of dying, officer,
as long it is for my land
and for my people.
But I am not going down for crimes I didn't do.
Reuben.
Hey, stop! Stop!
It wasn't me. Someone fired from outside.
I'm going in.
-Make sure no one else comes in. -Okay.
We've got to go in.
The backup will be here in ten minutes.
Too late.
Fuck.
Give me cover.
Reuben?
It’s the Dimapur-Kohima corridor
that the corporates will be most keen on.
Yeah, definitely.
Especially in the tourism and hospitality sectors.
Nagaland is such a beautiful state, after all.
I hope we’ve finally managed to get your tea right.
Yes, indeed.
-It's really nice. -Excuse me.
Yeah, what?
Did the meeting happen?
No.
I'll let you know.
He's dead.
-Who? -Reuben.
The police shot him.
What? How?
Listen,
they’re under strict orders not to make it public
until these talks are concluded in Delhi.
And make sure Asenla hears none of it before the meeting.
Who knows how she'll react?
Really, Kapil?
Is that what we've come to now?
You want me to lie to her face about her son's death?
We don't have a choice, sweety.
No, Kapil.
You don't have a choice.
I have to go.
Uncle Ken,
everything okay?
-I was getting worried. -Yeah.
Taizeen…
Will you take me to the church this evening?
Yes, of course.
For the midnight mass?
No, it'll be too crowded then.
I just want to go there
and quietly pray for someone.
Okay.
Poor thing,
she's suffering for no fault of hers.
I… I am sorry.
He should've been here by now.
I understand.
The poor man just lost his brother.
It takes a while
to recover when you lose family.
What happened, Grace?
I am sorry, Asenla.
I really am.
My baby.
My little baby.
Come now.
Let's just postpone today's meeting.
I'll drop you home.
No.
We'll finish it all today.
Let’s just get it over with.
Hi, monkey.
Hi, Mom.
I called to remind you.
Remind me what?
See, I knew you'd forget.
I didn't eat my almonds today for breakfast.
What did I forget?
Come on, Mom.
My Christmas gift.
Oh, no.
Oh, no!
I am so sorry.
How could I forget?
It's okay, Mom. Just buy something now.
I mean, I can try.
But it's…
Christmas Eve, right?
I don't know if the shops will be open.
Then just promise me you’ll be home by evening.
Okay, I promise.
I'll be home by evening, okay?
Okay.
-Bye. -Bye, I love you.
We'll pack up early today.
Spend Christmas Eve at home, okay?
Lying to family is one thing, ma’am. But let’s not lie to ourselves.
It's Christmas.
He's watching.
Mary, Joseph, lend your aid
While our hearts in love we raise
Gloria…
In excelsis Deo!
Gloria…
In excelsis Deo!
-Thank you. -Somebody give that man a promotion.
-Merry Christmas, everyone! -Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
Our heroes are here!
Weren't we supposed to keep this quiet, ma'am?
Excellent job, Meghna.
Isaac.
It's alright, Meghna.
You were only following orders.
Actually, we didn't shoot Reuben, sir.
A sniper did.
And to be honest, I wasn't planning to follow your orders.
Sorry, sir.
Just thought you should know.
Anything else I should know?
That Delhi police inspector you've been sheltering?
Make sure he's on the first flight out tomorrow.
You didn't have to tell him this.
He's watching, right?
-Jai Hind, sir. -Good news or bad news?
Which one do you want first?
Always the good one first, sir.
The Lord knows I really need it.
The Narcotics Department did prepare
a case file against Reddy.
What were the charges?
Nobody knows.
Meaning?
So, the bad news is that the file has since gone missing.
And who ordered this cover-up?
Who do you think, Chaudhary?
It's always someone at the top.
This game goes far beyond our pay grade, Chaudhary.
You’d better watch out.
Jai Hind, sir.
Excuse me, doctor.
Yes?
What's her condition?
She gained consciousness for a little while today.
I'm hoping she'll start talking tomorrow.
Okay.
Feeling better?
Yes.
Take care.
Mom, I want to go home.
How old did you say she is?
She's eight.
Rose looked a lot like her at that age.
What does her father do?
He…
He's no more.
You're still young.
You should remarry.
No child should grow up without a father.
Rose,
your friend is leaving.
Go say goodbye to Aunty Rose.
Jane, go.
Go say goodbye to Aunty.
Jane!
Why are you acting like this?
She scares me.
I am sorry.
Rose, I am really sorry.
Sorry.
You heard me, right?
A child needs a father.
Needs a family.
Very good.
I'll be right back.
Have you put up the Santa?
Very good. Put up the star, too.
Hello!
Guddu's grandparents have finally come to take him home.
Please come inside.
All good, kiddo?
How's your mother now?
I heard she had some heart complications.
That's why I didn't bother Chaudhary sir.
He's there with her, right?
Yes, she's better now.
He underwent surgery.
Was bedridden for two months.
How could I have left him alone to come here?
God knows what got into my son.
Ended up destroying the whole family.
I’ll pack his bags.
Actually, they have an appointment at AIIMS tomorrow.
They were wondering if Guddu could stay with you for one more day.
That's up to Guddu.
What do you say, Guddu?
Would you like to stay one more day with your aunty?
Yes.
So, you’re saying Delhi Narcotics had to…
drop Kapil Reddy's case?
Yes, ma'am.
Why would they do that?
Why is Reddy so important?
For the Business Summit.
According to Reuben, Thom wasn’t interested in the summit.
And this summit couldn't have happened without Thom.
Then what changed Thom's mind?
The fact that his drug business took a major hit two months ago.
You seized drugs worth sixty crores belonging to Max Rizu,
which actually belonged to Thom.
Thom was on the back foot,
and Reddy pressured him into agreeing to the summit.
It was Delhi Narcotics who tipped us off about this consignment.
And they got the information from an undisclosed source.
That source has to be Reddy, ma'am.
Who would know more about Thom’s businesses than Reddy?
And right after the summit,
Reddy is planning to leave the country for good.
Whatever we do, we have to act quickly.
I am sorry, Chaudhary. But you'll have to go back.
The DIG knows you're here.
You can lose your job.
And I might lose mine.
A sniper killed ACP Ansari,
and Reuben met the same fate today.
Someone out there is taking out the pieces of this puzzle.
You have to believe me.
And what I know is
that sometimes you can either do your job or your duty.
Ma'am, your bill.
Thank you for the coffee, ma'am.
Kohima Tours and Travels.
The sniper's car is registered
under a company called Kohima Tours and Travels.
You’re not the only one here doing your duty, Chaudhary.
So stop playing the martyr.
Were you there with him when he got that call?
Yes, I was.
I didn't know who the caller was.
He asked me for directions and left with his gun.
Your phone was ringing.
Hello?
Reuben is ready to meet you.
Where to, sir?
Kohima Tours and Travels' office.
You're the only one who knew where Ansari was headed, you asshole.
Sir!
And the only person who knew I was meeting Reuben was you!
Sir.
Forgive me.
Fucker!
Tell me.
Tell me!
I only gave him Rose's location, sir.
I had no idea he would kill ACP Ansari.
Who?
Who did you give it to?
Asshole.
Fuck you!
Speak up, you bastard!
It was Daniel, sir.
Thom's security officer.
I rent cars from Kohima Tours and Travels for my clients.
The company belongs to Daniel.
He told me that if I could bring him information on Rose and Reuben,
he could get my case pardoned.
Fucker.
He knows some important people.
I didn't do it for money. I just wanted to go home.
Please come in, ma'am.
Don't worry. It's the right room.
You should know, that cops are allowed everywhere.
How could you--
"Come inside my room at this hour,
that too without a lady constable?"
That's what you wanted to ask, right?
There you go. The lady constable.
Anything else?
-Come and sit. -Get going.
Sit down.
So, the thing is,
you gave us a statement
that on the night of Thom's murder,
you were knocking boots with Daniel.
-Correct? -He was with me.
In my room.
Then why won't he just say that?
He's protecting me, sir.
Why do I get the feeling that
you are taking both your husband and us for a ride?
Sir, I've already told you everything.
Alright, then.
Let's tell this to your husband as well.
That's his number, right?
How's it?
Ma'am, you are an artist!
Just drive.
Artist, it seems!
Hello?
Ma'am, the office of Kohima Tours and Travels is closed.
But we've found out the owner's home address.
I've messaged it to you. It's near Razhü Point.
Okay, good.
Ma'am, can I go check it tomorrow morning?
Actually, the whole family is getting together for dinner.
Yes, of course. No problem.
And, Isaac, wish everyone a Merry Christmas.
Okay, ma'am.
Thanks.
Merry Christmas to you, too.
-Take me to Razhü Point. -Yes, ma'am.
Yes, sir?
You guessed it right, Chaudhary.
The nurse had lied to us.
She was with Daniel that night,
but Daniel received a call around 12 a.m. and left right after.
Did she say who the caller was?
I don't think she knows.
But she insists that Daniel couldn't have killed Thom.
The things that love makes you believe!
She was rambling some strange story.
She said Daniel was from a place called Long Fong.
Apparently, the people
there are very loyal to their tribal leader.
Langchoma?
Did she say Daniel was from Langchoma?
All three have the same tattoo on their arms.
It could be a date,
possibly…
December 15, 1997.
These kids are from Langchoma, you see.
He lost his entire clan.
He will find you a new father.
If not, He'll become one for you.
"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
the fruit of the womb, a reward.
Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
are the children of one's youth.
Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them.
He shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies in the gate."
Ma'am, it looks like no one is home.
"I will live with them
and walk among them.
And I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
Therefore, come out from them
and be separate,"
says the Lord.
"Touch no unclean thing,
and I will receive you.
And I will be a Father to you,
and you will be my sons and daughters,"
says the Lord Almighty.
Ma'am, the sniper who killed Ansari and Reuben was Daniel.
Thom's security officer.
He might have worked for Thom, but his real master is Ken.
The politician, Uncle Ken.
Chaudhary, meet me at Japhü Square in half an hour.
Alright, ma'am.
And Chaudhary, Merry Christmas!
That's my son.
He's only six.
Would you like to take this call…
and wish him a Merry Christmas?
You know…
you won't get away with it.
