[DISTANT RAILWAY ANNOUNCEMENT]
[ENGINE HONKS]
That's not my issue.. - Ah..
Why is he not returning my call? Would I eat him alive?
That's right, when the phone goes unanswered, we panic
Yes..
I will let you know the moment he lands here
Will you, son? - What a question?
How long have we known each other for?
These guys are novices
I mean, him
Yes..yes
You don't trust me?
You're both jerks. Don't try to run me over
Hey never
Okay then, let me know when he arrives
Okay. I will call
[HE EXHALES] Look, Kannan..
Why don't you settle her outstanding bills?
You, of all people, should not say that
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Don't be serious - I am not
What? Aren't you spitting out accounts?
I don't want to irritate you this early in the morning.
Very good.. You are really great
[CAR HONKS]
Look bro, sister's stuff of 1.9 ... - Keep your mouth shut..Arh..
[KID MEOWING]
Meow.. Meow
Enough..come on, go play there let dad sleep
[HUMMING SOFTLY]
Hmm..? - Hmm..?
Kannan, better you park some where else I play powerful shots
Stop bragging and play - You bowl
Hey, Kannan dear..
Have you had tea? - I had
It's Kannan ! - Come on, Kannan
This is the usual lunchtime game
Oh.. lunch ! it's 4 PM now
Don't we need to relax a little? Is there a healthier game than this?
[HE CHUCKLES]
Thanks for that release, man
Oh..then..
Muthu, I have a small request
Can you arrange 'two' from her for me before this trip?
Hmm.. [SIGHS]
Heh..! You agreed?
No, I did not. I was thinking - Arh..
She won't trust me again, but you can make it work
Play your hand, bro
You are very talented, Muthu
No..no.. I am good for nothing - Hey..
You may even slightly degrade me before her
She likes it - Hands off, I will play
Hmm.. hmm
Bini, I'm in the middle of something; I'll call you later, OK?
Alright, then
What were we talking about, Muthu?
We were just badmouthing Kannan - My memory is weak these days
He is very smart and intelligent, no doubt
Don't tell me that, You should not encourage this
I have lost the trust in him
He is into some off the track affairs. Untrustworthy, I would say
What do you mean by it?
I have to take him with me for a trip to Mumbai, for a couple of days
Is there any problem in it?
Nothing like that, he can be trusted in that sense
I was just going with the flow.. - I got a little scared
Haven't we seen many ups and downs? - Hmm..
Creating success is simple, but maintaining it is hard
My sister, what a quote! It ought to be kept here in a frame
I need to make a call.. Do you want to weigh this again?
No need - Alright, then
Get me a packet
Don't look there, she's at the window
That was a little embarrassing
Shh..
Sheena, Idly is finished
Ah..Kannan, come sit - Muthu
Hmm,, Have some ..
No, I've already had my breakfast - Have some beef..
Oh, it's beef? I'll then have a little
Hey..get some Idly - Coming
One is enough - Have it man
How's Keerthy? - She's good
I'm done - Is she doing well? - Yes
One last piece - No, it's enough
Have it..I will bring tea
Have it, man
Muthu, I have a request
Want an omelet? - Nothing like that
Could you drop me off in Coimbatore? Tomorrow, I have to go to Bombay from there
You should not have asked me, knowing my situation
The Ollur Rummy tournament is underway
As the defending champion, I cannot miss it. You ask some one else
Hey Muthu..we'll go, stay the night there,
I will leave to Mumbai from there and you can come back in the morning
Hey, it won't work - Listen..
I have booked two rooms there
Hey..
In 'Cool Breeze'
Sheena - What?
Are there any pressed jeans left? - Yeah..
She says yes [THEY CHUCKLE]
Look who's there!
Is the fish good? - Of course, it's fresh
Hey, Bijoy - Hi Muthu
What's the plan? - Going to have some breeze
'Cool Breeze' - Aha..
Hey.. give this to sister, forget not - OK
Why didn't you tell me earlier? - Look at his excitement!
[HE LAUGHS] Look at his face ..oh!
Do you have a comb? - It's in the glove box
Muthu, why do you have cash in here?
Cash ? -Yeah..
Erm..
Ah.. That's Sheena's She won a chit auction the other day
I forgot to take it home
You keep this much cash in here? - Hey, stop bringing up money, bro
Did I ? You must be a little more responsible
I just forgot it, buddy
Oh.. A temple it was!
Hey..don't be serious Be happy
Throw a smile, man
Kumaran.. Muthu, I will be back while you have a drink or two
Don't make us wait for long - Not at all
It's just before Salem.. I will be back in no time
Please order some food before you leave
Sure.. - Tell me, sir
One Ceylon Porotta.. two ghee porotta
Make it crispy with some additional ghee - Sure, sir
Then, Kongunadu mutton curry.. What do you want as starters, Muthu?
Don't you have that mutton balls? - Yes Kola.. mutton kola
Yes..one mutton kola..chicken lollypop and a brain fry
One plate each, right? - Yes, one plate each
Off I go.. - OK
Come fast - Muthu, one moment please
Don't take it seriously [HE CHUCKLES[
Kumaran, take good care of them -OK, man
I will be back - OK Dear..
Shall I take the bag? - No it's fine
Get me the keys
Id? - No need
How is business doing? - Getting along. sir
It was dull for a while due to corona Now it's slowly picking up
It's the same everywhere
[SINGING A SENSUOUS TAMIL FILM SONG]
Oh..here comes our boy!
The service at Cool Breeze is unmatched Just a moment ..
You should take good care of us - Sure. sir
You should be here when ever called - OK, sir
Smile, you handsome.. - Thank you. sir
Off you go..
- Heh..
You listen, 20 is fine - No, sir
Sir it will be 30 K.. - That's on the higher side
No sir, it's very reasonable - Hey come on, man
Muthu, just a moment. I'm in the middle of a deal
Listen to me - No sir, it won't work
20 - The rate is too low sir..
Bijoy..
Muthu, can you wait for a moment?
Make it work for 20 K Yours will be handled separately.
OK? - OK, Sir
Ok
Soda for you, right? - Yes
Will be a little late - You should not have bargained
It will affect the quality
Everything is set - Come on have a toast
Cheers
Tastes slightly off, isn't it? - Must be of the water
Isn't this our car key? - Oh.. our boy
This is the problem with the switch start
What's it Muthu? - Hey Kannan..
There is a small problem The car key is with us
I should be slapped with a chappal for having faith in you.
Don't get offended.. You are a dead beat
Do you have any seriousness?
Heck.. are you stupid or what!
That's not the issue - What's not?
Kannan, can you come back?
If not, keep the engine running; do you have enough fuel?
Yes..
Fill it up... call If anything happens, we will come over.
OK
Give the phone to Muthu
He is here, but a bit miffed
He is listening
Muthu..
Did I hurt you?
It's alright
Anyone would have been angry, right?
Are you alright? - Yes I am
[SINGING THE TAMIL SONG]
♪The beauty that only a husband should see, why, you display it like in a shop!♪
♪ Yo, beauty from the land of Tamil language ♪
They are on the way Two of them
I know.. - Huh..
Hmm.. don't take it seriously - All the best
[HE CHUCKLES]
Woo-hoo!
Your names?
Tina.. Jina
Are you sisters?
Those are fake names, Muthu.. - Really?
[CHUCKLES]
Then I am Mohanlal and.. this is Mammootty
Hello [THEY CHUCKLE]
Look, they are happy
No foreplay will be needed
You pick the green one and go to the next room
OK - Hmm..
What a killjoy he has been !
What's happened? - Muthu..
I am busted by the police It's trouble here
What?
I am detained by the Police
As the car had no key.. - Then?
They suspect it's a stolen car
You take a taxi and come with the key I am here in Muthupettai Police station
Muthu..the gold.. - Huh..
Hey..have they busted the stuff too?
No worries, the guy who'd been with me slipped out with it, It's safe
If it's not that serious, can we take half an hour?
It's not a joke, Muthu
Where exactly is the location? - Muthupettai
Muthupettai Police station - Arh.. we will be there in no time
OK -OK
Where is this Muthupettai? - How should I know?, let's us find out
Isn't there a friend of his somewhere around here?
What's his name? Yeah..Arul..
He lives near the bus stand, right? We should take him with us
That's a good idea; otherwise, we'd have language issues
..it's Tamilnadu - Is there any problem, sir?
Nothing, sister.. Can you call a taxi for us?
[Automated network response]
Here.. right, I guess
Only guess, not sure!
I came here only once, for Arul's sister's wedding.
I was hell drunk, then
There was a temple and an eagle at the junction,
Eagle must have flown away
Not a real eagle, but a statue - Then it must be there
You've been trying to paint me as a stupid for quite some time
It won't be of help for you in the future Better you erase that thought
I know
Hmm.. I think it was somewhere here
Brother, please pull over here
Temple is here, but the eagle is missing
Every intersection here has a temple Are you sure it's here?
I think, it's that way - We may ask someone
Hmm..
Heh!
Don't get disappointed - I don't have much hope
Hey.. - Sir, phone
[DOOR SHUTS CLOSE]
It's Arul..
Arul, you recognise me?
I am Muthu, Kannan's partner
Brother, I had just spoken to Kannan
I don't think I could come with you
Look, you know I am not familiar with this area
You will be a great help
Look bro, I have already told Kannan
I need to take my mom for dialysis tomorrow
No issues
Nobody else is there to take care of her I need to be here, that's why
Arul, just a moment Kannan is calling
Hello - Muthu where are you now?
We are waiting for your friend Arul to come, just in case
Leave him
Muthu, Listen carefully - Huh..
Is it on loud speaker? - Yes..
Turn it off
That's not a problem, Go on
Turn off the speaker first, and only then will I tell you this
Now, go on ..
The Police is aware of someone fleeing the scene with the bag
They found some business cards of gold dealers in the car as well
Muthupettai is very near to Jaffna, it's notorious for smuggling
I have information that the Q branch of Tamilnadu Police are on to it
If it is true, we are getting into serious trouble
Do we need to arrange a lawyer?
That won't be needed. I got a chance to speak with the DySP here
He has offered to take care of it for Rs. 5 lakh
That's good.. we have the money, right?
We are coming then,,
We have only a little more than Rs. 3 lakhs, right?
That's correct
Yes.. what to do for the rest?
Can you try to arrange from some where?
If nothing works, tell them that I'll give my chain
That's good.. We are coming
[HE SIGHS]
Muthu, we could land in trouble
What if they take the money and put us in?
This is Tamilnadu, right? - Did anyone tell you otherwise..huh?
Get in..
Go to Muthupettai.. - Via Salem road
Sir, Muthupettai and Salem are different routes. Where to go now?
Where did you get this Salem? - Wasn't he going by Salem route?
I didn't hear that - I did, he clearly said that before going
Brother, go to Muthupettai police station
Salem route - Shut your mouth
[PHONE RINGS]
Hello.. - Hello..
Is this Mathew's number? - Yes..
I am the sub-inspector from Muthupettai station
Er.. hello -Yes, sir
Where have you reached, now?
We are on the way [BROKEN TAMIL] - OK..
There is an overpass in the high way en route Muthupettai..
..and a signal just after it
Arh..
Take a right from there to the service road
We will be there, the vehicle is Bolero
Is it on the right side, sir? - Yes..on the right
Come there.. OK? - OK, sir..we are coming
What's happening, Muthu?
Let's wait, right? - What else to do?
Somebody is sitting in the passenger seat
Hmm..somebody's coming
Give it
There is a little shortage, please bear with us
No..no, it won't work that way You must pay the amount I said
Sir, Kannan will give you his chain once he is out, then it will be OK
No chain, nothing, I want the amount we have discussed
Otherwise, he will find fault with me
So, you should pay whatever I asked for
Sir, please have some mercy We are from Kerala
Aren't you taking bribe? Please adjust, sir
Hey, shut up and mind your business - OK, Sir
OK, Give it
Follow that vehicle, I am going to the station
Don't show that you know me, when we get there. I too will play along
Sir..
Why did you talk like that, brother? - Sorry, sir..
Take the right, brother
Come on, brother - No sir
It will be a help, if you come - I can't get involved in police matters
Thank you, sir. All the best - Hmm..mm
Our car is here
Come..
[POLICE WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS]

Move to that corner
Thiru, anything odd in it? I am checking sir, shall let you know
Sir, I honestly work for a living, and my family is a God fearing one
I'm done if they found out I was in a police station
I am a well educated, law abiding citizen - We have heard many stories like yours
Spit out the truth - Please don't use vulgar language, sir
I am telling you. sir.. I swear on my kid, I have done nothing wrong
I have not done anything illegal
Who was the other guy in the car with you? Just answer the question
I was alone in the car. Nobody else was with me
Let me tell you something
That policeman was drunk He must have been delusional
You just call him and ask
Making up stories shamelessly..huh?
Sir, please don't get violent
I am completely cooperating with you, right- sir? Show some respect, sir. please
We will finish you off
Kumar - Yes, sir
Bring them - Yes, sir
Sir..
Was it you who fled from the car?
Sir.. - Was it him who fled from the car?
We are friends
We came here from Coimbatore in a taxi just now
Ask the driver to come - He's gone
Yes..
What do you do for a living?
We are into used car business
Show me your card
We were in a hurry, I didn't take the card However, we do have a website
Shall I open it on the phone?
Hey..
Kumar, take them down stairs - Yes, sir
Hey, he seems to be confident Nothing to worry
Sit down
You don't know, I didn't even have underwear
Don't bring up your underwear at this time
Yes, mam - Sir..
[HE WHISTLES] Go inside
He is unconcerned about us
Why are you surprised? Hadn't he told us?
Come, sit here
How could you do this, Muthu?
What if we got arrested? They are not going to hang us, are they?
Be happy, man..
Hey..want to relax? Stand straight
Hey, have some tea
Thank you
Is the sugar OK?
Lacks slightly
Adjust with it - OK
Is it smuggling?
No..
Are you from Jaffna? - No..
Somebody will come to take you, be ready by then, OK?
Arh.. to where?
Are you okay
Hey.. move
Tell me, sir... hmm..OK.. sure
So, you are into car business
What business were you doing in mid night, huh..?
Don't we have freedom to do business at midnight ?
Don't act smart.. How dare you talk about rights, in my area?
The entire area is under my control I will lock you up, mind it
Sir..
Idiots - Sorry, sir
No matter where you are, you must come here when called
Got me? - Sir..sir
Give me a couple of days time, sir
We will get the evidence if we question them properly
We don't have that time. It will become a big human rights issue
Sir, there must be some Jaffna connection..
What connection are you talking about? We have all their details
We can find out using these, got me ?
You may go - Thank you, sir
Kannan, who is the guy who fled with the gold?
He is a friend, don't worry it's safe with him
I am calling him, my phone is also with him
This guy.. he was shit scared yesterday - [CHUCKLES] Were you?
Don't lie, Muthu I was rock solid
Yeah..right, quite a performance
Hello.. I am out, where are you?
OK.. so you will reach Coimbatore by the evening, right?
Alright
He is OK, it's safe - Good
Hmm...
What's happened?
Muthu.. I'm heading to Mumbai now.. Are you awake?
Got the stuff? - He's brought it yesterday itself
All good? Yes,Arul's dropping me off at the bus stand
Oh.. Jesus.. what a relief!
Be careful
Don't worry, friend. I'll be back soon - Bon voyage.. hmm..
I'm Kannan, we had spoken earlier- to Mumbai,
AC or non- AC? Id proof..
Sister, tell me - Muthu, where is our Kannan?
I've been calling him since I landed here
He is not available yet
I'm here in Mumbai now, believing his words
Let me try calling him, sister
I've been going soft on him
I guess, he has fled switching off the phone.. crook
Hey, he won't leave you stranded He might have got stuck somewhere
phone might have run out of charge
Muthu, let him be very clear
If I end a relationship, I really mean it
You know me, right? - Sister, wait for some more time
Let me call him and get back to you
Sister and he must be in the GST office. She had called me earlier
Please look for him - Sure, I will call you later
OK
[Automated network response]
Shall we lodge a complaint?
He has gold on him. What if we have to furnish the details?
Let's ask sister? - Let's do that
We may go to the station with his dad. That's the safest option
We dropped him at Coimbatore a couple of days back
Bijoy, you guys make a trip to Mumbai
For the return trip, take the road route. He could have met with some accident
The phone was last used in Mumbai before it was turned off
Anyhow, Cyber wing is investigating, I will also conduct a parallel inquiry
Was he a gold rider? - Yes..
For how long ? - He's been on the field for 5-6 years
Snitching? - No..
[Indistinct chatter]
Do you have cigarettes? - It's in the car
[KIDS PLAYING] How big is this house? - It's a two-storied one
Mom, have you seen my house?
Brother, any information? - Don't worry, they're investigating
We are leaving to Mumbai today, Sister is there
Let's see while we return One second ..
Hello.. Is it Mathew?
Mathew, this is SHO, Ollur - Tell me. sir
We have just got a message from, Chembur Police station, Mumbai
Arh..
An unidentified dead body in a lodge
They have found an id card of our boy, from the room
We are collecting the details, shall inform you...
[Indistinct chatter]
Move aside..
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]
Why is it so crowded here? Clear off
Hey.. move back
No onlookers should be there
Where is it ? - In the room, this way
This side? - Yes..
Show me..
[INDISTINCT BACKGROUND CONVERSATIONS]
The padlock on the door was broken, sir
This one ? - Yes
You smashed it? - No, it was them
Shall I? - Hmm..
[DOOR CREAKS OPEN]
Got this iD card from here
We have informed the address, sir It's in Kerala
Greetings
You go, I'll wait here
[SLAP] Who broke the lock?
Him? - Sir...
Was it you? Why did you break the lock?
They know nothing, sir
We'd been calling him since the day before He was not returning the calls
Sir..there was another lock on it..
Sister.. - Greetings
He is the president of the Malayali association
Secretary, to be precise - Mani Kurup
They call me Kurup
Have a seat - Yes
Erh..
Room was locked from outside with another padlock
The hotel staff had to break in The body was found hanging
There are fatal wounds on his body, I am told
There was a pool of blood in the room
[SHE SNIFFLES]
Is there some gold missing? Was he carrying gold?
Who's crying there?
The police is questioning the hotel staff
They are from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar
We can't trust them They are very dangerous
[SUSPECT SCREAMS] Who broke the lock?
Jayant Sakhalkar will be the IO in our case
He is known to me
He is a shrewd guy, very efficient
He has keen academic interest in such cases
Academic interest means what? - Some inanity
Have it
I don't want - Have it
Hey, Kurup - Yes, sir
Come on in - I'm coming
So, this Trissur is India's gold capital ! Nice
You don't know Hindi? - A little bit
So, tell me madam, How much gold was he carrying?
See, whatever figure you tell me now, That much I can give you back..
..once I find it. So, give me the exact figure
Let me discuss it with them and tell you later
Great, OK
Well, I've told him..that this case has to be investigated very fast
There is this journey, from Trissur to Chembur- Kannan's journey
That's very important in this case
So, we have to travel back to Trissur and look for evidence to investigate
Normal government procedure will take time
What he says is that the normal procedure is time consuming
If you can meet the expenses, he can make it fast
Muthu.. what to do? - What?
He will come and do everything if we can pay
We can do what ever..
That's fine, sir We will meet the expense
It's by itself a gold case also The gold can vanish like this
[RECITING RAMAYANA]
[CHEERING FROM TABLE FOOTBALL] Move forward ..
Stop it stop... Hey hey ….. its gone … gone…
Oh.. yes…
Let's set it up here.. - OK
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]
Look, I don't have the exact figures
Do not bother about it now, It' will be better to tell them the truth
Who is Keerthy here?
Hello, Keerthy
I am Inspector Jayant Sakhalkar from Chembur
Hmm.. - We've met, no?..yeah
They are my colleagues- Yashpal, Anshuman, Bhaskar...
This is Morey and he is Alex
He will translate the conversation
How was your family life?
We were living happily
What was his financial situation like?
We do have some debts now, but it's better than it was before
We made it through, repaying
Now we are way better, financially
Yeah.. he does have some debts
But those debts are mine as well
Muthu, How exactly do you run your business?
Well,, we have a supply chain up to Mumbai
We make jewellery here and supply the merchants
They provide us with the pure gold
The jewellery is made by mixing copper with the gold
Our profit is a percentage of that copper
It may appear lucrative to outsiders, but..
It's not as profitable as iron or so..
So, you say that there is no gain from this business
Not that we don't make anything
we started from the scratch
From this alone, he could build a house and marry off his sister
I also make a decent living from this
Don't you know about the risks involved?
Hmm..
Yet you did not try to stop him
Yes, risk is there.. no business is risk free
For instance Kannan's father
He was running a tea stall in Coimbatore, totally risk free
Then there was a bomb blast Kaboom - the end
After some days I tried starting another shop
That too did not take off
What should I have advised him, being a loser myself?
What we see now is the result of his hard work
You know, nothing is completely legal here
He was very studious, but..
I could not give him proper education
He was a smart guy, he knows three or four languages
Nobody could say no to him
All I have is the craft
Kannan was handling the sales and marketing
How did Kannan get this mark on his back?
It's of an offering ritual, sir
He used to perform hanging- a flesh piercing ritual- every year
I am not surprised of his fate His stars were not all aligned
He was a 'cursed Capricorn' by birth
This was the final one of his lives
He had to endure all of these pains before his death..
..as he does not have another life
Who is this Arul? - He is Kannan's friend
He lives in Coimbatore and has paid us visits on occasion
They were classmates up until ITI, then we moved here
We used to meet at our room when we visited Coimbatore
Why didn't he come, Arul?
He told me that his mom was in hospital. May be because of that
His mother was not feeling well
So, he is not your friend? - No, I know him, that's all
I've met a lot of them
He does business all the way up to Mumbai, and knew many such guys
Can you recollect your last conversation with him?
Erh.. he had called me when got there in Mumbai
Told that he was waiting sister Ambika to arrive
He also told me that pending bills were all cleared
..and had promised me to call by the evening, but couldn't reach him after that
How much gold did he have when he left here?
I don't know exactly, but he had taken 'two' from me
There were some pending stuff to collect en route
He had told me that he got those, if that's the case...
..it must have been around 8 kilograms
His plan was to collect it on the way and wait for us in Mumbai
We were to stay in Mumbai and send the gold with Manikkuttan.
Who is this Manikkuttan? - He is one of my helpers
Could you object if we said you and your boys killed him for the gold?
Sir..please sir..
What happened?
Don't speak like this, son, You risk being cursed
You are mistaken; simply ask around about me in Trissur, you will get to know
Don't say things like this.. Sir, he is crossing the limits
Is it, Alex? Why are you crossing the limits, man?
Sorry..
Look madam, especially in these gold smuggling cases.. I have studied
..that the closely associated people, they only give the tip to the criminal
You, Arul, Bijoy, Muthu, you all are aware of Kannan's journey
Right? OK - Yeah
So isn't it normal to suspect you all?
Ask him about the Muthupettai incident - OK
Kannan told you he was going to Salem but ended up in Muthupettai instead
There is a small confusion in it
I heard him saying that he was headed to the Salem route
I took it up with Muthu, but he said other wise
See, that's how this business works
The gold riders won't disclose their route, as there could be snitches around
He won't tell me, or even his wife
We won't ask, either
You say, it was his friend who slipped with the gold from the car
Do you know him?
Kannan has several friends in Coimbatore It's his home town
It must be somebody he trusts, or else he would not have given the stuff
You didn't ask his name? - No, I did not
Why didn't you ask him After being involved in such an incident?
Do you recognise the person?
It's Kannan -Hmm..
Kannan is seen leaving the lodge just after checking in
He was being followed when he returned
Do you recognise the person following Kannan?
No, sir..
No..
No?
Is that Kannan's bag?
Is it ? - Yes it is
Sure? - Sir
So, he is the one who did it, right?
[GULPS]
What are you thinking, Muthu?
Share it with me
Share it, man
About him..what else to think?
Have a drink
If you try to console me, I will smash your face
Hands off me.. -OK
They were childhood friends
..and classmates up until ITI before we moved here
So his mother is telling that..
Kannan's father used to run a tea shop in Coimbatore
That's when Kannan and Arul studied in the ITI together
Why did Arul skipped the questioning?
Is he lying about his mother's illness
There is something off in it
You too felt it, right? - Yes..
[PHONE RINGS]
Hello..
Muthu, Alex here - Tell me, sir
We need to go to Coimbatore tomorrow - Sure, sir
But why? - By 8 AM
[LINE DISCONNECTED]
[SINGING AN OLD HINDI SONG]
Have you seen him?
Mammootty and Mohanlal
[A WOMAN COUGHS]
[KNOCKING ON THE DOOR]
[DOOR OPENS]
Brother.. - Arul..
They are Maharashtra Police
They are investigating Kannan's case
[SHE COUGHS AGAIN] Come on in
[COUGHING CONTINUES]
Why didn't you come for his funeral?
Mom was unwell, that's why..
Is she alright now? - Yes
They want you to identify a guy
This photo was taken from Coimbatore bus stand
This guy, wearing the hat
Do you know him?
What's happening, any problem, sir? Whom are they looking for?
I don't know, brother
This is the guy who followed Kannan to Mumbai
Look, can you recognise him?
I don't know, brother
Ask him about Muthupettai incident?
When Kannan was detained by the Muthupettai Police..
[BROKEN TAMIL] The guy who ran had Kannan's phone and he'd called you...
You may speak in Malayalam
When kannan was detained by Muthupettai Police..
There was this guy who fled the scene with his phone
You had called to his number that day They want to know who that guy was
Tell them
I don't know, brother. I was calling Kannan
I couldn't talk to him as the signals were weak and his voice kept breaking
Voice break?
So the voice was breaking for the entire 45 seconds?
Were you saying just hello the whole time?
It's the Police - Are you lying or what?
Sir I don't know English - You don't know?
He is lying..Tell him that he has to come with us
Look sir, I am telling the truth, sir The voice was not clear
What's the problem? - It's nothing uncle
Nothing to worry about, these are people I know
There are police men out side, that's why I am asking
Not an issue, I will explain later You may please leave now
OK, we will be outside
You go out..out
I am telling the truth, sir
I could not talk to him properly, sir
Arul, you will have to come with us
We have some questions for you
Why me, sir? - Why?
I will tell you why..You don't know English, right?
I am aware that you know everything
You know English, Hindi and everything You're acting out a drama with us
Come with us, we have to go now
Tell him..
They have questioned us all We are all part of it
They want to know the details
Come, all of us will be there
[SHE COUGHS AGAIN]
Let me change, then - He wants to change the dress
Go, make it quick
Hey..Muthu..
People are gathering, this is Tamilnadu, mind it
Move aside..
Crowd is gathering, be alert - OK, Sir
Be on guard
Sir, don't take out the gun The crowd may turn violent
Don't worry, you sit tight
Disperse the people, Ask them to leave
Tell them to go home.. - Hey Bhaskar, control the crowd
Hey.. get out of here Don't you understand?
Hey.. hey.. stop. Catch him.
Hey..hey.. stop there
He's run - What the..
Hey Bhaskar, Pranav come here, what are you doing?
Have you come here to watch some comedy show or what?
He has gotten away..
What has he done?
Hadn't I told you to keep an eye on him?
Sir.we didn't know about the back door
Didn't I tell you to be alert?.
Move
Sorry, sir - What a shame!
And all of you call yourselves policeman.. huh !
Are you even listening, Morey?
They don't understand the language, and neither do we
Then why did you chose to become a cop?
Making absurd excuses!
He bolted in front of you and you're yet to grasp its gravity
[CROWD BOOING]
Had not I told you specifically to be alert?
If someone had blocked the backdoor, we could have caught him
I would have run after him but nobody was there to back up
Muthu, why did he run?
Do you expect an answer from me?
No... I get it.. How would you know!
Track him down and figure out if we still can catch him
See.. We, the Maharashtra police, ..
..are investigating a mallu murder case in TN, it's gonna be tough
Hey..Saravanan
Come here..
What happened? - Don't know, sir
Hey, Muthu?
Why you're stopping here? - Need to take money from this ATM
Sir, Arul is here - Please don't brother
Why did you run? - Please brother..
Sir, he is here - Brother, please don't do this
I know nothing, brother -Then why did you run?
Sir.. - What happened, bro?
..got locked inside? - He is a wanted guy
A thief?
- Brother, brother..please
Bijoy, call Jayant Sir Sir, Arul is here
Sir..
Muthu brother, please
Brother..brother - Come here, you..
Save me please, brother.. They are taking me, brother
[CROWD CLAMOURING]
He's a criminal. We are from Mumbai Police
Do not interfere.. keep your mouth shut [ARUL SCREAMS]
Hello Alex..
Yes sir..OK
Muthu, We urgently require three plane tickets to Mumbai
Keeping him here for long is not safe
[KNOCKING ON THE DOOR]
Hope he drinks - Why not! He's Malayali, no?
Your name is Alex, right ? - Yes..
Are you settled in Mumbai?
My mom works as a teacher there
Is she doing well? - Yes..
Convey our regards to her, when you call
Sure..
After all, he doesn’t look like a Malayali - Malayalis are awesome
Of course...
We just wanted to know about the case
Hope you don't mind having a drink or two
I do mind.. - OK..
He is far too unfriendly - Is he truly a Malayali? I have my doubts
Which floor is the bar? - What, sir?
Bar..
I feel like going back to Allappey for honey moon
Alleppey is fun
Munnar, Kochi, Fort Kochi... [Tourist destinations in Kerala]
Sir.. - Eh..
He said we are going to Muthupettai [BROKEN ENGLISH]
Why?
He wants to verify whether your Muthupettai story is true or not
Hmm? - Hmm
What's he saying? -They want to verify
What's there to verify?
I can't ask in English anymore, you do if you want to know
Hmm?
See, these days the investigation has become easy
Because of the technical support
You have got call data records, tower locations and CCTV
Everything is there. So in this team..
I provide that technical support ..hmm?
Sir, in your Kannan's case
Kannan had a second number, right?
On that night, the phone was with a friend, right?
Arul had called that number
A call dialled from the number was located in Muthupettai
.. it belongs to a girl
We are going to Muthupettai to find that other person
Got it?
Have you, Muthu?
They're looking for that jerk who got away with the gold from Kannan's car
Kannan's second phone was with him, got me?
Arul had called to that number and spoken to him
That jerk had also called some girl in Muthupettai from that phone
We're going to look for her there. We'll find out about him once we get her
Correct sir? - Arh..!
Whom to ask! Madhu, did I get that right? - Yes
That's it

Sir,we were on night duty, checking vehicles at the Pettai junction
A fast-moving vehicle approached us
I saw two people in the vehicle
Hey..stop, stop
Seeing us, they turned around and sped away
[SIREN BLARES]
Go fast.. get them, Something wrong
let's go..
We lost them during the chase even though we tried hard
I was aware of the ongoing bridge work there..
So I took the market road and caught the vehicle
But then, there was only one person inside
..and that was Kannan - Thank you, Ashok
Can you identify the second person?
No, sir. It was dark, I could not see his face properly
She is coming.
So tell us - Sir the number is hers
But she does not have it now She has given it to a friend
What's this friend's name?
She's not telling me, sir. She's behaving strangely
She did not tell you even after you slapped her?
I tried that too, sir but she won't budge
What is she saying? - Give me a sec
[BROKEN HINDI] She confirms that it is her daughter's number
But it's not with them now It's with one of her friend
Hmm... - But..
Her daughter is refusing to disclose the name
So, she is not telling it, right?
She is a little kid, sir. She knows nothing
I too have such a kid at home. Don't worry, we just need to talk
Tell her not to worry
There is nothing to worry about We will just have a chat with her
Kanakaraj, sir
I am not at all interested in knowing whether you've taken money or not
It's none of my business
If there was an outsider who struck a deal for Kannan
We could ask him about Kannan's activities
So that was the whole idea
Sir, I know my team members - Definitely, sir
We are a bunch of dedicated officers
You can rest assured that we are not involved in any such activities
No, I am sure, sir ..If you are saying so
But according to Muthu's story..
He himself had given some money to a short guy from your ranks
He was a short guy
I am sorry, what's your name, again? -
Sir, Inspector Jayant Sakhalkar from Chembur police station
Look sir, there are several such short officers in our department
Obviously, sir
And I don't know who you are talking about - Obviously sir
In fact none of them are available here at the moment
All of them are in the outskirts of the town, controlling a political gathering
So unfortunately, I won't be able to help you at the moment
Oh..really?
And I really don't know who you are talking about
Well sir, we can go there and.. - Wait
Are you questioning me? - No sir, not at all
In fact I am just putting across a request
..for your co operation and help. No way I am questioning you
Then let me speak to your senior officers
You will get an update from them automatically
Definitely - So, good day
Thank you so much, sir - Thank you, officer
Muthu, do one thing..
Alex, tell him about it
He has spoken about your money with the DySP. You may go in and ask him
He'll give it back to you. Don't worry. we have made the arrangements
You just go and ask
Sir - Yes
My cash.. - What cash?
The bribe you took ..
Bloody rascal, get out
Ahem..
He kicked me out
It's OK, I just wanted to verify
You did good, Muthu, come
What's your friend's name?
Open your mouth and spit it out
She is just a kid, don't yell It could make her more stubborn
Dear, please tell his name
Tell..
Open your mouth and tell him
Don't yell at her, she will tell
The Mumbai police is not like our Tamilnadu or Kerala police
This is a murder case, do you know that?
This sir is an encounter specialist
They have a shoot at sight order
Tell them what you know
Show her the shoot at sight order, sir
Look at that, he has a gun too
You may just name him
He is not just a friend but my boyfriend
Oh ! is it? Would you to marry him? - You have a boyfriend !
Yes.. - That's good
I will help you marry him, this police uncle also will be with us
This police uncle too, all of us will be with you
Enough? OK?
Who is he?
Don't waste time, tell his name and elope with him
Don't yell - You just tell me
Please, dear.. tell me
Spit it out, you..
Vicky..
Vicky!
Didn't you get anyone other than that criminal?
Oh..sister..get up, sister.. what happened ?
What have you done? How could you do this ?
Tell me - The girl has a boyfriend
The number belongs to him.. His name is Vicky, a petty criminal
Vicky...Venkitesh
Got him? -No sir, he is in jail now
We have to get that DySP's permission to interrogate him
Hmm..OK
Sorry to trouble you again, sir
But we need your permission to interrogate a small time criminal..
Venkitesh Ravi aka Vicky. He is in some sub jail
Ask one of your senior officers to give me a call
Or why don't you try going to the court?
Sure, sir
My seniors would certainly call you, sir
Let me tell me one thing before that
Kannan was wearing a gold chain when he was detained..
..which was missing when he was released
I have an eye witness with me, Muthu right, Muthu?
Yes, sir
I won't mind spending a number of days here eating Tamil food
But I will get that short guy, arrest him and interrogate him
After all it's a murder case, sir
You will be entangling yourself in it, unnecessarily
Now you decide.. [CHUCKLES]
[EXHALES SHARPLY AND THEN CHUCKLES]
Sir..
End of the day, we are police officers but from different states
..having the same goal, right? - Sure sir
Let me see what I can do for you - Appreciate it
Look who's come for me, the Mumbai police. I am not a petty criminal any more
So..Mr. Venkitesh - You can call me Vicky, sir
Oh..is it? - Yes, sir
Vicky!
So Vicky, can you speak English? - Yes, sir, very well
That makes my work easy
Tell me, sir
Anshu, record this conversation
[CHUCKLES]
Is this some kind of audition?
So Vicky, 8 May, night..you received a call from this number 9497323412
..and you spoke for two minutes continuously
I just want to know what exactly happened during the..
Slowly, sir.. - What?
I can't keep up with you when you speak quickly
So speak slowly enough for me to understand
Really? - Yes..
Hmm..
Show him Kannan's photograph
Can you see the photo? - Yes..
Do you know him?
This is our Kannan.. - What!
Our Kannan..sorry [HE CHUCKLES]
This is our Kannan, sir - So, you know him
What sir? You just asked him to show me Kannan's photo..
So that must be Kannan, right, sir?
Oh..how smart! - Yes, sir..
Hmm...
So Vicky.. -Yes sir
This is Kannan, right?
Somebody had called you from his number on 8 May
..and spoke with you for two minutes.
What exactly were you two talking about?
Sir, even if you ask me about yesterday's events...
I won't be able to recall them
So how can I respond if you ask me about something from the past?
You don't remember? - No, sir
Obvious, no? - Yes..sir
Vicky, come here, I will tell you a secret
Tell me. sir
Well, I am not at all interested in you
But I will take your girlfriend to Mumbai and interrogate her..
Unless you tell me the details
[HE SCREAMS]
Sir..sir.. it will may cause trouble - Relax
Sir, you can't do this.. - It's OK, It's normal
Better you tell me the details otherwise I will press the accelerator more
[MUFFLED GROAN]
Sit..sit, please sit
[HE GROANS]
It was Abbas bhai who called me from that phone
He was stranded there and wanted me to pick him up and drop off at Coimbatore
Now where is Abbas? - I don't know, sir
Anshu - Yes..
Is this him?
No, sir..this is not him
No? - No, sir..
Sir, this is Abbas, sir - Are you sure?
Yes sir, he is a wanted person who has a bounty on him
Hmm.. Anshu, get his phone number Give your phone number to him
Muthu, it's the same person
It's not him - Oh, that's him for sure- Abbas
I see..it's just him..He must have been on a diet, he has shed a lot of weight
I did not even recognise him - Really?
So thank you, bro - Thank you, sir
If the Muthupettai guy and the one on the CCTV are the same..
So..?
I was just thinking - Where are the cigarettes?
Finished, I guess
Why didn't you buy some? I really needed one
Madhu, please buy a couple of packets - OK
Feeling sick? There'll be a nice sea breeze if you open the window
[PHONE RINGS]
[PHONE RINGING]
What's the matter? - Brother, where are you?
Somewhere in Tamilnadu, don't know the exact location
Sister Ambika had come the other day for the rituals of Kannan
Hmm...
She says, it was his friend who fled with the bag from Muthupettai
But what he told me was
..that the man in the car was a hitchhiker, who fled seeing the police
Do we need to inform the cops?
What should I do?
Hello... brother..
I am getting another phone call, it's them, the Police
You need not worry, I will handle it OK
The person we believe to have followed Kannan from Coimbatore to Mumbai and...
..murdered him, is the same guy who was with him at Muthupettai- Abbas, his friend
How could a close friend have secretly followed him for so long?
Do you notice anything unusual about Kannan's steps in the video?
He is not being followed..
Isn't he trying to shield the man behind, from the camera?
But why?
Kannan had a plan
That plan could have involved nicking the gold...
.. from Ambika's men with the help of this Abbas
However, Abbas is seen leaving the hotel room with the gold all by himself
There had been a last-minute turn of events in the room
Abbas may have found it easier to bump off Kannan and ...
.. flee with the gold than dealing with Ambika's men
Arul, the guy we took to Mumbai has not opened his mouth yet
He was fully aware of Kannan's plan, we guess
Not only him, all of his close friends knew about it, we are certain
Did you know about it, Muthu? - I didn't know, sir
Muthu..
So you don't know? - I don't know
Come on, Muthu? You were his best friend
I am hearing it for the first time, honestly
So, you don't tell me? - I don't know, sir
Hmm..
Ahem..
See, Muthu..
I know, you are the best friend of Kannan and you know everything about him
So tell me the truth
Look at me
I can extract the truth, I am telling you
I am telling the truth, I don't know sir
Sir, the warder from the jail has sent a message
What? - He has got the address of Abbas
Is it? - Yes sir
Good
Hey Morey, Alex, Keep an eye on these guys Let's get Abbas
Bhaskar, Anshu let's go.. Come on, let's crack this case today
We have to go home tomorrow ..and I'll get back to you
Hey..Madhu.. you come with me
Got the cigarettes ? - He will get it
Are you suffocating?
One sec..
Sir, that green coloured house
Sister.. - Hey..
Anshu.. - Yes sir..
Sir..
Anshu, is this Kannan's bag?
Yes, sir
Nothing, sir...
Hey SundarRaj, make her speak
Do whatever you can, shout at her, threaten her, whatever..
Use all the cuss words in Tamil - Sure sir
Sir - I am talking, don't you see?
She knows Hindi - What?
She understands Hindi - Oh..I see
Wow..
Where is he, Abbas?
I am asking you, where is Abbas?
I don't ..
Means what?
You don't know or won't tell us?
Look he has committed a murder
I will pick him, and take him to Mumbai I will thrash him like anything
He won't be able to stand on his own for the rest of his life.
Better you talk
You won't talk? - No
If you don't open your mouth You too will be taken to Mumbai
You will be beaten up as well, got me?
We have found a bag from your house and there is no gold in it
So better you talk, where is Abbas?
I will finish you off right here.. Do you understand?
Your girl will be orphaned and sent to some orphanage
Do you understand?
I am not telling you anything
You...
Doesn't she understand Hindi? - Yes sir..
Then why is she so stubborn?
Sir.. - What?
[WHISPERING IN MARATHI LANGUAGE]
Sarika? - Yes, Sarika
Haseena..
So you are not willing to talk..
You won't give any information OK, don't
But I can give you some fresh information
9061306907 - Is this Abbas' number?
Hmm..
Last week alone, he has made 600 calls from this number
All to a single number
Do you know whose number is that? A girl in Chennai
They are involved, Abbas and she
He is planning to take the gold and elope with her
To SriLanka
Do you know her name?
Sarika?
Correct..
Five points for the answer Hmm..?
[PHONE CHIMES]
Take the call and put it on speaker

Tea, please
I've known Kannan since our days in Coimbatore
Three of us, me Kannan and Arul had been classmates in the ITI
He was struggling financially for a while
He had a plan to get out of it
I told him that it was risky
He came to Muthupettai to convince me and take me to Mumbai
Come on, bro..
Bro, won't there be CCTV?
That won't be a problem, you just wear a cap
There was a police checkpoint on the way
Go..go..fast
He was very particular that the cops should not find us together
As soon as we escaped the police...
.. he left me at a deserted location with his phone and the bag
He'd strictly told me not to use my phone during the journey
It was Arul who informed me that the Muthupettai police had taken him
Then I called Vicky, and got away from there
The following day, Kannan and I took a bus from Coimbatore to Bombay
Hey, what are you gonna do? - Wait..
Hello sister..when are you starting from there?
All pending items are collected .. all good
How many of you are coming?
OK, I will make the bookings
Alright, then..
[SIGHS]
Get up, man..
Drop all of these on the floor
It should look like a fight scene - OK.. done
Slowly..don't make noise
Alright ..take it out..
What .. ? - Take it
OK..
One second ..
Keep this
Take this off too
OK
You good?
OK
It should be like I tried to block when you slashed me
Right here.. -OK
Don't be nervous, go easy
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
Wait..wait.. not like that
It will be fine if you take a step back. The force should be there
OK..
Don't cut my fingers - Hey..
Don't confuse me, I am losing concentration
Sorry.. I won't utter a word again
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
What if you scream in pain?
Shall I put some cloth in your mouth?
Don't bring any new ideas, do what I say
Arh..
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
Don't think..
OK..
What are you doing man..Just slash me - Be calm..
Arhh.. [HEAVY BREATHING]
[HE GROANS IN PAIN]
[HEAVY BREATHING]
Is it OK? - [GROANS] Hmm..
[HE PANTS]
It's OK.. - Take that chair
[HIS LABOURED BREATHING]
Don't tie it tightly, I may have to help myself if nobody comes
Or else, I could die - OK..OK
OK..Arh..
Open it. quick
That's your share
Thanks, bro..
[ZIPPER RUNS]
Ah.. yes.. [KERCHIEF FLAPS]
Hmm..
Hemm.. eh..
Bye, bro..
In a city where more than 200 murders take place every year..
.. gold agent Kannan's death at the Kamala lodge..
..also seemed like another perfect case of murder
All the evidences were pointing towards a brutal act of violence
A murder for gain..
The door was locked from outside using another padlock
..and inside the room, it was a total mess
Signs of struggle could be seen everywhere
A deep cut wound was found on the body
A rope was tied to the window as if the body was hung after killing
..also there were CCTV visuals
.. which showed us the entry and exit of an unidentified individual..
..at the crime scene
And Kannan's gold bag was missing too
Although all these evidences were pointing towards a certain murder..
A few facts were bugging me right from the beginning
Why did no one hear even a slightest sound of this fierce struggle?
Even after Kannan was attacked so badly!
Also Kannan's blood stained prints were found on the switch board and the fan
How did they end up there?
So, once we caught Abbas and started interrogating him..
Then only we were able to find answers to these questions
And the postmortem report which we got the other day also supported our findings
..that Kannan's death was not a murder
According to the findings of the police this is not a murder..
..but suicide
But Kannan wanted to stage it as a murder
I know, Kannan already had a lot of problems
He was neck deep in debts
He was worried about losing life savings..
.. and his family being forced onto the streets
He promised me 2 kg of gold from what he was planning to nick
He wanted it to look like a robbery
But, I did not expect him to take his own life
With his years of experience in this field Kannan knew..
.. that a simple made up story of robbery won't stick
That might have prompted him take this decision
Had he not been detained by Muthupettai police that day..
Had there been no calls from that phone to trace,,,
His plan would have been worked out, to a certain extend
It would have looked like some one had followed him..
..and murdered him for the gold - Sir, one second..
What is his gain in making this a murder?
Oh..benefit?
It's an expected question I will tell you..
Tell him
In your line of work, for a gold agent like Kannan..
..which is more likely to attract leniency- suicide or murder?
Kannan didn't have much pending gold to collect, as he was claiming.
Which means he had that much of debt to pay off
They have already verified it with his merchants
The only gold he had with him was..
2 kilograms ornaments which he took from Trissur in last trip
He had to kill himself in order to prove that he had been robbed
That's the truth
What truth?
He had no reason to take his own life
He would have repaid if he had debts, He was such a confident guy
He was my soul-mate
He would have told me if he was that broken
Otherwise, he would have told her, wouldn't he?
Look..
Muthu, please keep your emotions aside and listen to me
Come on, Muthu, what should I do more to make you realise..
Should I die like Kannan? - Enough, sir.. enough
We will move legally to get it re- investigated
Come on..don't you have the contact of Joshy?
Jai Hind, sir..
Yes, sir..
Arul, you are being called
[INDISTINCT BACKGROUND CHATTER]
Uncle..
Give me that..
He had come to meet me before setting off to Mumbai
Muthu..
Please try to understand There are times when people lie to you
Your own friends hide truth from you..
They do this, just because they don't want to hurt you
They show confidence only to hide weaknesses, you get me?
Muthu, listen to me
I had no other intention.. - Get lost, you..
What..? - He says, you may please go
Was it a 'Please' ?
That did not sound respectful..
OK..I get it.
..and by the way Muthu..
I quite like you.. You are too innocent
..and that's your problem..
But what to do, I'm a public servant
..which makes me always one-sided
I have to stand by the truth, no?
[IN MALAYALAM] Now, you get lost..
Sister..
We must not admit that he committed suicide
We must not..
Are you listening, Keerthy?
He used to lie a lot, brother
I knew, I knew it..
If we admit the fact, they will easily make it a suicide
He did not want that
I failed to stand with him, now is the time for it
That's what love is all about
Let him win.. let him..
For what, brother? He has gone, no?
I don't have any other options
I've run a long distance
The finish line is getting closer
In hindsight, I realise that I'd been on the wrong track
We can't start over; right? the only option left is to finish this race
I have to keep my family safe, that's all
Bro.. - Hey..
Not to worry, everything will be fine
If things go wrong, please give it to her
Tell her that I tried my best, won't you?
