Hello, Tanya.
It's okay.
Pick the call.
Pick up.
Hello?
Now I'll speak and you'll listen.
You shouldn't have done what you did.
-You shouldn't have followed me. -Adheer?
Now whatever happens,
that's on you.
Knock Knock.
Do you think I'm funny?
Ask Simmi.
Where's Simmi?
-She went with you guys, right? Where is she? -Oh, shit.
-She... -Vicky, where's Simmi?
She left from there, right?
Shit!
Simmi, pick up the phone.
-Richa, is the call going through? -No, it says out of network area.
-Did you find out anything? -No.
Tanya, call your mom.
She's the only one who can help us.
Are you crazy?
You know aunt, right! She'll kill us before Knock Knock does.
So what are you saying? Let Simmi die?
Let's think of something else.
-Why are you so scared? -Why are you acting like a hero!
Just stop fighting!
Think about what to do now.
This whole mess started with that coffee boy, Adheer.
Let's go to him, I'll slap him around a bit...
He'll spill all the truth.
And if he turns around and hits you, what then?
Tanya, please, call aunt.
She's your mom, not a monster.
Please call her.
Come on, I need you. Please pick up.
This always happens.
Whenever I need her, she's busy.
I'm telling you, let's go to XOXO cafe,
only Adheer can tell us what's going on.
I'm telling you.
Simmi?
Tanya?
Where is Simmi?
Adheer, please, just tell us.
We'll drop the matter right here.
Don't lie to us.
We know you don't live in the hostel.
You forged your whole identity.
-You rascal! -Vicky.
You enjoy scaring girls, don't you?
Vicky!
Where is Simmi?
We know you're Knock Knock!
Tell us where Simmi is!
Go check all the rooms,
the cafe, look wherever you want.
There's no one here.
Tanya, Richa, you two go check the cafe.
I'll go with him and check his room.
Go!
She's not here.
-Found her? -We didn't find her.
Before attacking like that, you should've asked who I am.
At the time of university admissions,
all the hostel seats were already allotted.
I couldn't afford PG rent.
Don't lie, Adheer.
Then why did you tell me you live in the hostel?
What else was I supposed to say?
That I live in this cafe's storeroom?
Even the owner here doesn't know that.
How many other lies have you told?
Whether I'm telling the truth or not doesn't matter.
What matters is what happened to Simmi.
You don't worry about her.
We're looking for her.
Got it. Look who's talking.
Random, where are you?
Did you find anything out about Adheer?
I checked the college records.
Adheer is registered as a student.
And he did apply for a hostel room too.
But Richa, I still don't trust him at all.
Yeah, I don't trust him either, Random.
But he said he was late, that's why he didn't get a room.
I don't know. Okay, fine.
Tanya, we should go check Simmi's house.
You two go.
I'll stay here with him.
I'll keep an eye on him.
Go.
Tanya...
Do you remember what happened last time when we dropped Simmi home?
Thanks girls for dropping me. I'll see you, bye.
Wow!
We came all the way to drop you off
and you won't even offer us coffee? Rude!
No, babe.
It's just that my parents are a little...
Not a little, my mom and dad are very elitist.
-So... -One minute.
Are we beggars?
Compared to Mehek, yeah, kind of.
I mean, they're very
particular about what kind of group I hang out with and all that.
Wow, Simmi. One insult after another.
-Seriously. -My parents are like that, not me.
-You know I love you guys. -I get that.
All parents are a bit like that anyway.
-It's fine. -Okay, later, alligator!
-Bye. Get home safe. -Bye.
Bro, that was close.
Look at her mom, shooting daggers with her eyes.
Shit, let's go. Let's bounce.
Of course I remember but right now I don't care.
She must also be worried about where Simmi is.
Come on, let's go.
Ma'am!
Ma'am, look at this.
Mehek's phone has been traced.
Look, both the girls have left,
now it's just you and me here.
Come on, tell me, who are you?
Why are you doing all this? What do you want?
No family, no friends.
More important than who I am
is who's bothering Tanya.
Don't worry about Tanya.
She's my friend.
All of us together will protect her.
And anyway, Tanya's not your friend.
Got it?
That's actually true.
Whatever Tanya and I have,
it's more than just friendship.
This one, right?
Come on, let's go.
Who are you guys?
Hi, aunt. We came to meet Simmi.
-Where is she? -First of all,
I'm not anyone's aunt.
-There's no Simmi here. Bye! -No, aunt.
I'm talking about Simran, your daughter.
My what? I'm single.
And mom to no one.
I don't have a daughter.
Aunt, this girl.
Oh, her. She's the Home Spa girl.
Home Spa?
If you guys want a service, you can book on the app.
App?
-Which app? -Home Beauty app.
Simmi works on the Home Beauty app.
So this isn't her house?
Her house?
She told you that?
No, now leave.
Oh, wait.
Last time, in a rush, she forgot her bag.
Give this to her. She lives in the working women's hostel.
Lotus Hostel?
Simmi goes to people's homes to do manicures and pedicures?
And this lady, she's not even her mom.
She lied to us big time.
We have to find her.
Richa, what is going on?
Let's go.
I can't believe we missed something this big.
Simmi's financial health was so bad
and we never even found out.
No, Richa.
We are idiots.
We didn't notice the small things.
Think about it. She never ordered anything at XOXO.
Yes.
Because she was always on some stupid diet.
But she used to eat when you, me, or Vicky treated her.
She never ordered anything herself.
Did you notice that?
But her clothes!
Always so new, so fancy.
I mean, I've never seen her repeat any outfit.
Her shoes, her bags always matched her dresses.
Exactly. And you do the same thing,
buying dresses, tops, shoes from shopping apps,
wearing them once and then returning them
so you can get new things in exchange.
You're right, but I never thought Simmi would do that too.
Why didn't we notice anything?
Richa,
why would we suspect that Simmi isn't the way she seems?
There was no reason to.
I can't believe we never really knew Simmi.
She told us such huge lies
but we never found out.
Whatever it is, she is still our friend.
We'll find her.
Ma'am, we want to meet Simmi... Simran.
Room number 203, on the second floor.
-Yes, Vicky. -Tanya, sorry, I made a huge mistake.
What happened?
That rascal Adheer overpowered me and escaped.
I told you that guy wasn't right.
You both take care of yourselves.
Did you find Simmi?
Tanya!
-Tanya! -Hello?
Richa, outside!
Knock Knock is here, Richa. Outside.
Tanya! Why were you running here?
Knock Knock is here.
What?
Stop!
This way, ma'am. Come.
Richa, Tanya, step aside!
-Come with us. -Move, man! What have I done?
Tanya, what were you doing here?
Why were you following him?
I wasn't following him, I came to find Simmi.
Simmi?
What happened to Simmi?
She's been missing since last night.
I thought she would be in her room.
Aunt, we thought something happened to Simmi,
so we came here looking for her.
But she wasn't in her room
and I saw Joshua standing outside the hostel.
-So, I followed him. -Why?
Because mom, I called you not once, but many times.
But you were busy, like always.
Ma'am, one minute.
One minute. What happened?
Look, Tanya,
Kavita ma'am isn't that bad.
Wow!
You know my mom better than I do.
She's such a dedicated cop, right? Then go ask her where Simmi is.
I mean it, Random!
Go ask where Simmi is, when she'll be found.
If she's okay or not.
Bro, are you okay?
I'm fine.
Was Knock Knock caught?
Now speak.
You really enjoy scaring girls, don't you?
You're laughing? Want me to wipe that grin?
Ma'am, it was a prank.
-It was a prank? -Yes.
I mean it was funny and profitable too, so...
How much money did you get?
Will it cover your bail?
Because ma'am will write such a report
that you'll rot in jail for a long time.
I was paid to do it.
-Oh really? -You think all this is a prank, huh?
Vicky, will you let me do my job?
Aunt...
You all go to Simmi's room.
Mom, what is he saying?
Please go to Simmi's room right now.
No, but Mom, at least ask him once.
Just go!
Come on, guys.
Tanya.
Now speak.
Why were you doing all this?
Ma'am, I told you I did all this for money.
I downloaded this app called Knock Knock,
and I made a wish on it.
I got a message saying if I did this prank, my wish would come true.
And on top of that, he sent me money too.
-Knock Knock app? -Yes.
What is it? Is it some kind of game app?
Ma'am, one minute.
-Joshua, give me your phone. -Take out your phone, quickly!
Ma'am, can I check his phone?
Go ahead.
Look, look. Check all the messages, bro.
I even got money transferred from an unknown number.
Open it.
Ma'am, he's telling the truth.
Look what it says.
If you don't want to see your ex going on a date with someone else,
then wear this mask and scare this girl, Simmi.
-And what else does it say? -Just stand outside the north side window
of the Women's Hostel wearing the mask and wave.
Ma'am, money has been transferred too.
I was sent Rs. 10,000, ma'am.
And now will this prank of mine also count as a crime?
Now tell me...
what else were you going to do?
He said if I completed the task, I'd get another Rs. 10,000.
But now I won't get it.
I see.
Now tell me where you've hidden Simmi.
I swear, ma'am. I don't know where Simmi is.
Alright. Take him to the police station.
-Ma'am, I told you the truth. -Get inside!
Ma'am! Ma'am!
So, are they her real parents?
I can't believe Simmi would lie to us.
Why did she think we would judge her?
We have to find out what's going on.
I'm sure Joshua is hiding a lot from mom.
Guys...
-This is Mehek's phone. -Mehek's phone.
Tanya, hide it.
Why? Aunt's been looking for this phone for a while now.
Tanya, give this to Kavita aunt.
Are you crazy?
Mehek's phone was found in Simmi's room.
What do you want? For the police to go after her?
-No. -Tanya, give the phone.
No, no. But how do we even know
how many lies Simmi has told us?
So you'll end the friendship because she lied?
We'll ask her later what's going on.
Tanya, give the phone. I'll go hide it somewhere.
No, no.
We'll talk to aunt. She'll understand.
Don't talk like a fool!
Vicky, Richa,
can I speak to Tanya for five minutes?
Can you leave the room?
Now tell me, Tanya.
How are you involved in all this?
Mom, I don't know what any of this has to do with me.
-I just don't know what's happening. -Tanya!
Enough of your nonsense!
How many more lies will you tell me?
Simmi is your friend, right?
Yes, mom, she's my friend.
Then why did you do something so stupid?
Why did you want to scare her?
Why would I want to scare Simmi?
Now you'll say you didn't give Joshua any money.
What? I gave money to Joshua?
Joshua was paid Rs. 10,000 to scare Simmi.
And the UPI through which it was transferred to his phone,
it's your number.
That's not possible, mom.
-I didn't do anything like that. -Really? Randeep!
Randeep! Randeep!
Show her her transaction history.
I checked it.
The money was transferred from your number.
Tell me everything right now!
Mom, I didn't do anything, you have to believe me.
How can you even think that of me?
Sit. Sit here.
Sit.
Listen to me, Tanya.
And listen carefully.
This is not a joke.
This is a very serious matter.
I haven't told Tripathi anything yet.
Just come out with everything
and I can still help you.
Mom, I don't know anything. Trust me.
What was Mehek's phone doing with you?
I found it in this very room!
Mom, what are you doing here?
We were tracing Mehek's phone and it led us here.
Your friend Randeep helped us.
How was this phone in Simmi's room?
-How is Simmi involved in this? -Mom, I don't know anything!
Okay, sit down for a minute. Calm down.
Drink some water.
Wh... What happened?
Simmi!
-Simmi! -Simmi!
Sim...
