Are you wasted on the job?
Do you want to get fired?
Merry Christmas, and welcome to this special news bulletin.
The talks for the Naga Business Summit
have successfully concluded in Delhi today,
with the Naga leaders signing a historical agreement
that will pave the way
for investments worth 20,000 crore rupees into the state.
The Naga leaders issued a brief joint statement in this regard
before boarding a special flight to Dimapur,
where they will be welcomed by thousands of cheering supporters.
This shall be followed by a press conference…
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child…
- Long live… - Nagaland!
Hey, man! Merry Christmas!
Want a balloon?
Of course, you do. Everyone wants a balloon.
Here, only a hundred rupees for you.
- I don't need one. - Okay, sir, keep this for free.
- Because Jesus loves you. - I don't need one.
Sir, what happened?
Sir?
For you, it's free because Jesus loves--
Please, stop. Come back!
Release me!
Move!
Call the cops!
Where's the back door?
- That way, sir. That way. - Right?
- Yes.
Give me the keys, quick!
Hurry up!
Jai Hind, sir.
Sub-Inspector Imran Ansari, reporting for duty.
Ma'am's body was recovered from Daniel's house.
My father was in the force, too,
during the '80s and '90s.
The worst time for Nagaland.
He once told me…
"Son,
if I'm not home
and a colleague shows up at our door…
know that I will miss you."
Whenever he was out on duty…
and the doorbell rang…
Today, I'm going to be that colleague who shows up at the door.
I want to meet Ken.
After years of only incremental gains
toward peace and development,
the Naga Business Summit promises to be the game-changer
that generations of Nagas have been hoping for.
In a press conference in Kohima,
the Naga leaders revealed the broad terms of the agreement,
which include a guaranteed investment of at least 20 thousand crores
over the next five years,
50% job reservation for Nagas,
and several other initiatives for the beleaguered state.
One man, however, was conspicuous by his absence.
And that was the veteran leader Rangthong Ken,
better known to us as Uncle Ken.
So here we are, right outside his house,
hoping to get an audience with the man
who played an instrumental role
in ensuring this momentous day
arrives in our lifetimes.
I told her last night…
that either Daniel or you would be coming in the morning.
Go.
What happened on the night of Thom's murder?
May I?
Thom got a call that night.
It was his dealer, Max Rizu.
Max told Thom that the drug raid
was set up by Reddy.
Thom was a smart ass.
He knew at once that this was Reddy's way
of pressuring him to agree to the summit.
Excuse me, sir.
The note is torn.
Thom stormed out of the bar
and came to your room.
He refused to be a part of the summit anymore.
And just for that, you had him killed?
I didn't have him killed, Chaudhary.
I did it myself.
Because I didn't have a choice.
It wasn't an act of rage.
I did what I had to.
Uncle Ken, I won't change my mind.
I'm not going to be part of this.
I'm calling it off.
I respect you a lot,
but I won't discuss this anymore.
You kill only when you have no other choice.
And then you two decapitated him…
to make it look like a political murder?
Next, you made the confession video with those three people
and then had them killed, too.
And then you set up Reuben for it.
ACP Imran Ansari…
SP Meghna Barua…
that poor girl Rose, who is still fighting for her life in the hospital…
Do you realize how many lives you've destroyed here?
Trust me…
God reminds me of my sins
every time I take a piss.
I have kidney cancer.
Maybe I have another two or three months to live.
But this summit…
This can help my people.
And I wanted to do this one last thing for them.
So you want to be immortalized, is it?
Be remembered as the God of Nagaland?
We already have a God.
We just needed to see His miracle.
Alright then,
we'll let your devotees decide this
after they know the entire truth.
Sounds fair?
I'm not afraid of the truth coming out, Chaudhary.
But after that, Thom's party and his supporters
will never let this agreement go through.
It will all be for nothing, Chaudhary.
For nothing.
Although the shadow of Jonathan Thom's
unsolved murder still looms large here,
Kohima finally seems to be cheering up
with joy and hope today.
Will you drop me off at the airport?
Isn't the army hospital on the way?
Maybe Rose has gained consciousness by now.
She might reveal something about Raghu Paswan's whereabouts.
Rose is dead.
The hospital called while you were with Ken.
She died in her sleep last night.
We did what we could.
And thank you so much, brother,
for not revealing anything outside Ken's house.
My land,
my people…
They need hope.
They deserve hope.
Funny thing, this hope.
This man's wife came to me
with the hope that I would find him.
The wife is long dead…
and the child is all alone.
And here I am, still hoping to find the man.
They are your guests, sir.
That's why I let them park here.
FRIENDS ARE FOREVER
Are you alright?
You're an important man, sir.
If you could find our son…
He's the only support we have in our old age.
Your darling son has eloped with his mistress.
He who doesn't care about his own child,
do you think he cares about his doddering parents?
Uncle, easy.
Raghu didn't elope with that girl.
Did you find anything, sir?
He promised he would be home for Makar Sankranti
with enough money
to pay off the medical loans.
This is for Guddu.
Sorry, this was all we could do.
Go on, boy, touch the lady's feet.
All I need is a hug.
Shall we visit Siddharth next week?
We can meet his girlfriend, too.
What was her name again?
Ananya.
You have quite the memory, Mr. Chaudhary.
Go, freshen up. I'll get dinner ready.
Yeah, Manju? Listen…
Sir, what exactly are we looking for?
Play it.
Jai Hind, sir.
Jai Hind, Chaudhary.
How is your mother-in-law doing?
Sorry, sir.
The DCP must have told you everything.
This case became a little personal for me, sir.
I understand, Chaudhary.
But I have to put it in your appraisal report.
It might even lead to a suspension.
It's only fair, sir.
Sir…
So, you weren't visiting your mother-in-law?
Get back to work.
I thought it was your in-laws who banged you up.
Here, sir, it's playing.
Wait a minute. Stop… Rewind it.
Yeah, right here.
Zoom in.
"Friends are forever."
That's quite profound, Tokas.
Tell us about your forever friends, Kishore.
It's the boss's rickshaw.
I just lease it.
You're here to meet Guddu, right?
I dropped them off at the station.
Their train leaves tonight.
I'm only here to see you.
On the night of Raghu's disappearance,
what was your rickshaw doing outside Nagaland Sadan?
- Sir! - Ajju, run!
Tokas, go after him!
Stop!
Speak up!
That night, Raghu insisted
on borrowing my rickshaw.
I refused…
since it belongs to my boss.
Raghu offered to pay
ten thousand for just that one night.
His Rose madam had some urgent work.
Want a drink?
Got the money?
I'll pay you in a week.
What do you mean?
I don't have it right now.
How come?
Did your Rose madam not pay you?
Well, his madam doesn't pay in cash.
She pays him in kind.
Be careful what you say, Ajju.
Fuck that shit.
I lent you my rickshaw at a risk.
You said you’d pay me ten thousand
and repay what you owe to Shahid.
Now pay up!
I told you I'll get the money. Now fuck off.
He'll work for it and pay you.
It's just ten thousand.
He will now screw her.
Talk to me.
Show me the money.
Tell me you at least got a private lap dance from her!
You asshole!
Jerk!
He doesn't have any money but sure has a stinky attitude.
Where's my money?
Rose madam said she's going to get money from somewhere.
She wanted to give me five lakhs.
Where is the money, then?
Speak up!
Where is the money?
She hasn't got the money yet!
She’s landed in some trouble.
Take me for a fool, do you?
Take me for a fool?
Please, just listen to me.
Where's the money?
Where's the money, you bastard?
Ajju!
Hold him!
We took care of him through the pandemic.
Now, when he made five lakhs in one night,
couldn't he pay us what he owed?
He never got the money, you moron.
Sir, that…
So, Raghu's only mistake was that he tried to help Rose.
I don’t get one thing, though.
That night, Dhruv Mallik was waiting outside Nagaland Sadan,
and Rose's plan was to sneak away with the money with Raghu's help.
This means she was going to get the money from Thom that night.
But by the time she reached him, Thom was already dead.
She freaked out and left without the money.
So where did that money go?
We didn’t find anything during the search.
I have some news to share.
I'm putting in my papers.
I'm done with this shit.
And what do you plan to do?
Let the Lord be my guide.
I know you guys used to call me "Virk the Wuss" back in Okhla.
You were always a better officer than I was, Chaudhary.
But I always knew I would be the one to last longer.
This system is like a boat, Chaudhary.
And everyone knows the boat is sinking.
You’re the kind trying to save the boat.
I’m the kind trying to save just myself.
Want an ice cream?
Hey!
- Yes, sir? - Two for us.
Sorry, sir, this note is torn.
You should be glad you're getting one in the first place. Go!
Excuse me, sir.
The note is torn.
I'll get going, Virk.
- What's up? - It's nothing.
Think it through.
Fuck off, you wuss.
Sir, please, hurry up.
Hurry up, sir.
If anyone finds out, I'll lose my job.
You know what the wise ones say, Satbir?
A case file that's ordered shut is never flipped open again.
- That works? - Works, sir.
I'm leaving.
Good luck, sir.
I need a small favor from you, Mr. Bhalla.
Can you tell us which hawala operator issued this note?
That's him.
The one who promised to shut my shop.
Let bygones be bygones, Mr. Bhalla.
You're like an older brother to me…
A child's future is at stake here, Mr. Bhalla.
You help me today, and I'll remember it forever.
But if you choose not to,
there's no way in hell I'll ever forget that.
Brother?
- Tell me the number. - Number?
- The number written on the note. - Yes.
0SV457484.
0S…
Do you have a bag?
What for?
How do you plan to take away two crores otherwise?
This is just five lakhs.
And that is all he was promised.
