Hello, sir. This is Shabana.
I'm coming from our channel's head office.
It's about Swecha's case.
I need some information. Can you help me?
Wasn't there a journalist named Eedayya here?
What is this? Is this Eedayya's landline number?
Doesn't he have a cell phone?
He doesn't use one.
Sir.
Kavitha ma'am is personally dealing with this story.
Will you give her the same response?
Ask her to be careful.
I'm telling you this as the head of this location.
This is a very dangerous place.
Be it you
Or your Kavitha ma'am.
Stop here.
Ma'am.
Shit!
Eedayya, just talk.
I have enough time to watch you cry.
Just give me 5 minutes to talk.
I'll wait.
I'm not crying for myself, ma'am.
I'm crying for you.
I was inspired by you to pursue journalism.
But what are we even doing here?
We don't need to be honest, ma'am.
We just need to speak the truth.
What did you do in Swecha's issue?
It's because of the pressure, ma'am.
The pressure to make breaking news.
It's every journalist's death note.
In this process, we don't just bury the truth.
We also bury who we are.
If I don't return with any sensational news,
My wife, my 2-month-old baby and I
would have become homeless.
But, because of what I did...
I never thought it would ruin someone else's life.
I feel very bad for her, ma'am.
In the process of showing a rumour as the truth,
I've lied to myself.
When I look at myself in the mirror,
I feel disgusted.
Now, when I see you, I have the same feeling.
Why didn't you stop the news from becoming a sensation?
Take me to Swecha.
Madam!
Haven't you understood what I just said?
I won't say anything more. Enough of this.
You can fire me right now. I won't tell you anything.
These speeches...
Are whistle worthy in movies?
We have to show the truth.
Only the truth.
The lie you're living through right now.
And the truth you reveal,
I shall be the bridge between them.
Just tell me where Swecha is.
What's with the bandage? What happened?
Some random guy walked in, bashed me hard
and deleted all the data, sir.
What is he saying, Shekhar?
He says someone just barged in, hit him and deleted all the footage.
♪ It had to happen ♪
Okay, fine. Is there anything else?
-Just ask him. -Okay, sir.
Sir.
Kakinada weather is too good, Shekhar.
A puff of cigarette would spice it up.
Ah, you have it? You seem to be well prepared.
Why aren't you lighting it, sir?
Light it up, sir. Don't feel shy.
It's injurious to my health and deadly too.
My doctor said not to smoke.
My lungs were diagnosed with a tumour.
You didn't understand, did you?
I have lung cancer.
How's that possible, sir? You look very fit and healthy.
I gave the same expression when the doctor revealed it.
So, that's why even you...
Sir? Why did you throw it away?
Sir,
you need to see this urgently.
They found the body when they were about to go fishing.
Try to see if we can get any other information.
Who are you?
Sorry, because of me you have to face so much trouble.
Thanks. Glad you finally realised it.
Actually, Kavitha ma'am is a true fighter.
I feel responsible for her death.
Just before she died,
she swallowed a pen drive.
All of us can escape only if we get that out.
We need it at any cost.
Are you getting me? Please!
Kavitha ma'am...
has sacrificed something none of you can expect.
Look here.
I don't need to know any backstory or your purpose.
I don't care.
We fell into this problem unnecessarily because of you.
For us...
Yeah. Tell me, sir.
Hey... Where are you? Are you on the way?
Yes.
There's a slight traffic jam. I'm on the way.
Yeah, you're on the way.
But you have put us in a tough spot.
-What happened? -You wanna know what happened?
Since morning, people have been coming, asking about your whereabouts.
Why me? Who was asking about me?
They want you to transport a body.
They kept on asking about you.
I said no and tried to offer other vans and drivers too.
But they stood firm on having you for it.
By the way, how did they know about you?
Sir, there's a police checkpost. I'll call you back.
No. no. Wait.
-Come here! -No, don't do it.
-Hey, Chanti, open the door. -Wait, don't do it.
-Yes, bro. -Get her in.
-No, don't do it.
Prabha, stop it.
Tell us the truth. How many people do you have in your gang?
What gang?
Someone went to my office searching for me.
Who're they?
Hey, Dayaa, listen to me.
There are a lot of people trying to get this body.
Besides you, who else knew about the body in my van?
-Get her in. -I'll... I'll tell you.
Tell me right now.
Maybe the police know.
Police?
The Harbour CCTV might definitely have footage
of me loading the corpse in the van.
I'm sure it did.
Based on that,
they might be searching for you.
Dayaa, who's calling you?
I don't know. Looks like a new number.
No, don't answer it.
Just throw the SIM card away.
Maybe your mobile is being tracked.
Oh, my God!
Dayaa, to escape from this situation...
tell me where the body is.
That pen drive is very important to us.
Tell me, Dayaa.
Pooja, it's okay. Don't worry.
Everything will be fine.
I just came home.
Can I call you back?
I love you, Kaushik.
I love you too, Kavitha.
Kaushik.
What happened, Kavitha?
No one's agreeing at home.
I can't live without you.
Kavitha.
Listen to me. We don't need anyone.
Let's get married, Kavitha.
Kaushik.
This is our home. No, no, no.
This is our world.
Let's create the best memories together.
She is very kind, ma'am.
She loves her daughter very much.
She spends time with her kid whenever she's at home.
She would ask me to stay back when there was any important work.
But this has never happened before.
If such a thing ever has to happen,
she would call me 2-3 times a day.
Go on.
As I said, she calls 2-3 times a day.
But this time, she didn't even call once.
-Okay. -And so...
her daughter is very scared.
Hello, Mr. Husband.
What's up?
I said NO! I'm in the middle of work.
Kavitha, I said no!
I am already unable to work out at this moment.
Is it?
-But it did work out. -What did you say?
The moment did workout.
-Kavitha, you-- -I swear on the baby!
Hello.
Sir.
Hello.
What's happening?
Baby?
Aren't you excited?
Hello.
I'm talking to you.
Sir.
I'm leaving, sir.
Don't misunderstand me for leaving you like this.
But I have to, sir.
Can't you stay back?
My daughter had a delivery.
I had informed ma'am too.
Okay, then. Take care.
Okay. Baby, come here.
Dad is home now.
Don't worry.
Mom will come tomorrow. Till then, listen to your dad.
Is that okay, baby?
Take care.
Take care of the baby, sir.
Is it a girl or a boy?
It's a girl, sir.
Oh!
It's okay, sir.
Please take it.
Thank you, sir.
I'll be back soon, baby. Take care.
Hi, Mom!
Hi, baby!
Did you finish your homework?
Yes!
Is that a drawing? Who gave you that?
-You carry on. -Okay.
Meenakshi.
Give me a strong coffee.
I have a headache.
Ask him if he'll join for dinner.
Okay, ma'am.
I don't need dinner. I have plans.
Do you mean with Pooja?
Cool.
I've sent the divorce papers to your office.
Oh. Is it?
I was on leave this week.
Working on some story.
Siri wants to go out this weekend.
I was planning for that too.
You want to join?
Kaushik.
Siri doesn't just need crayons and colour pencils.
She needs your love and attention too.
Kavitha, we decided to take this step.
I don't know why you're delaying this.
It's your decision.
I need time.
To digest all this.
You wanted time to write a book.
After 4 years, you show up now to ask for an urgent divorce.
It's not easy for me.
I need some time before I sign the papers.
Thank you.
Please close the door.
Hey, I'm okay. Leave it.
It's okay, Kaushik.
-Is she sleeping? -Yeah.
Sorry for bringing this all home.
It's okay, Kaushik.
Now it's not about us spending time together.
It's all about giving her some time.
It's been 5 years.
We've been living separately.
Yet all this... happening all of a sudden.
It feels weird.
I need to look for an immediate solution.
There's only one solution, Kaushik.
Spend more time.
Start loving her.
Prioritising your career
is not wrong.
But it is when you do it by abandoning your family.
After all, it's your family.
And... you were selfish.
And you know...
out of everyone, she deserves your love.
She lost a major part of her childhood.
I know I might be sounding rude.
But it's time.
All your bad deeds.
Only you can correct them.
Go.
Go and show your love.
Thanks.
I'm always with you.
Where's she now?
I think you're under deep stress.
Have some tea.
Hey.
All that breathe here are just like this.
They try to do something.
See? Just like this fly.
They struggle till death.
No worries. You can have it.
Thank you so much for the concern, sir.
-But you-- -Madam...
You want to solve this case.
I completely understand that.
You can do your own investigation.
But...
any information about the rapist will not be provided.
That's it.
How can you respond so casually?
A girl was raped.
College students, media, and everyone has the information.
Can't you take a step and investigate further?
First thing...
On what evidence did you telecast the news, madam?
You may need just a rumour for hyping your TRP.
We need a recorded statement.
How embarrassed that girl would've felt.
She's not even coming to the police station.
You have just made her a showpiece by revealing everything about her.
The same girl could screw you over with a defamation case.
Then I will definitely start an investigation on you.
So, you can't help? Is that all you have to say?
Have your tea. It's getting cold.
He has already hiked the price. It's Rs. 12 now. Have it.
Bro!
Are you okay?
Yeah. I'm fine.
I'm okay.
Let's go.
Why did you bury the body?
Are you out of your mind?
-And here? -Keep it down!
-Slowly. -Why is it so heavy?
-Be careful. -Careful.
Hey, make it fast.
Pick up the basket.
Is this the way you dig? Hand it to me.
You're good for nothing.
Still, you are showing off.
Shabana, you're good at driving, right?
I can manage.
Manage?
What do you mean by "manage"?
It's a yes or no question. Who asked you for a review?
Yes.
Start the van and wait for us.
Fast. Hey, give me the basket.
We've dug enough. Hold this, Chanti.
-Prabha, lift! -Yeah.
Hold it tight!
-Careful. Careful. -Let's hurry.
Hold it.
Hold it, Chanti. Lift!
Look out. Careful!
That stupid girl has created some problem again.
Hurry up!
Someone might see us. Hurry up!
Place it in.
Look!
