[Woman]: Rita?
Rita?
You didn't eat dinner last night. Again.
My God! Look at this mess.
You need to eat. Coffee isn't breakfast.
Look, come on now. Get up.
I need to visit Aunt Bertha. Food is on the table, huh!
(Rita sighs)
(Rita groans)
(Rita pouring liquor)
(Rita lighting a cigarette)
(indistinct chatter)
(Rita gulps liquor)
[Rita Brown]: So, basically, in every case,
there's at least one witness.
The murderers themselves.
So, use your brains,
and the case will solve itself.
Thank you.
(cadets applauding)
[Male cadet 1]: Ma'am, it's a matter of great honour for us
that we're getting to learn from you.
So, ma'am, I had a question.
Let's talk about the Lokhaipur double murder case.
It was a really difficult case.
And the witness was just a child.
So, how did you solve that case?
[Rita]: I used my brains.
[Male cadet 2]: Ma'am.
Why did you take a posting in the Reserve Police Force?
[Rita]: I needed some rest.
(cadets laughing)
[Rita]: It's true.
[Male cadet 3]: Ma'am, which is that one case that changed your life?
[Rita]: Which case didn't?
(Rita's phone ringing)
[Rita]: Excuse me.
(Rita's phone ringing) (sound of Rita's footsteps)
(Rita's phone ringing) (indistinct chatter)
[Rita]: Hello? [Man]: Rita Brown?
[Rita]: Who's this?
[Man]: Didn't you recognise me? Well, it's been a long time.
[Rita]: Sudhendu Babu?
(Rita chuckles) How are you? Why did you call?
[Sudhendu]: For work.
[Rita]: But you had retired, right?
[Sudhendu]: The CM has appointed me as a special appointee.
He wants to meet you urgently. [Rita]: Oh.
But I'm not even in uniform.
[Sudhendu]: Just get here quickly. I'll see you.
(sound of paddles on water)
(lighter clicking) (sound of gurgling water)
[Arjun]: Did you stop catching fish?
[Fisherman]: More trash gets caught than fish.
There's no profit.
How come towards Howrah today, sir?
[Arjun]: Nothing. Just a useless case.
[Fisherman]: You're working on everything, except for my case.
What about my wife's murderer?
It's been a month. He must've run away by now.
[Arjun]: Where will he run in this heat?
[Fisherman]: That's exactly why I wear a 'lungi'.
The air keeps flowing.
(fisherman laughing)
[Arjun]: Is it a new 'lungi'? It's great.
[Fisherman]: My wife had gifted it.
She knew what I liked.
[Madan]: Shut your mouth and row faster.
Nobody goes even to their in-laws' this slowly.
Understand?
[Arjun]: You do some things quite quickly, Rashid.
The condition in which your wife's body was found...
There were drag marks on her back and feet.
That means there were two killers.
One held her feet, and the other used the knife,
just like a fishmonger separates the fish from its head.
Was she having an affair?
Hmm?
Rashid.
Did you forget this old 'lungi' after buying a new one?
Your nephew confessed to everything yesterday.
(oar drops)
(water splashing)
[Arjun]: Hey! The guy is escaping, sir!
Sir, I understood this at first glance!
He eats from the same water he washes with! Sir, he...
[Arjun]: Madan, the whole of Bengal does exactly that.
[Madan]: Sir, did his nephew really confess everything?
[Arjun]: Tell a lie in such a way
that the other person thinks it's the truth.
[Madan]: You're a genius, sir!
Sir?
[Arjun]: Bring the boat. [Madan]: Hey, sir! Sir! Sir!
(water splashing)
[Madan]: Sir, what have you gotten me into? Oh, dear!
What have you gotten me into... (phone ringing)
Sir! Your phone is ringing, sir!
[Rashid]: I gave her everything!
Still she had other desires!
Everything is ruined!
[Arjun]: Shut up!
[Madan]: Sir, your phone has been ringing for a while!
It's been ringing for a long time!
(Madan grunting) (phone ringing)
[Protestors]: The strike is on and shall continue!
[Rita]: What's happening here?
[Driver]: Ma'am, the police killed a rickshaw driver.
That's why there's a strike.
[Protestors]: Falsehoods won't be tolerated!
Falsehoods won't be tolerated!
The strike is on and shall continue!
Falsehoods won't be tolerated!
[Constable 1]: Ma'am, your ID card.
[Protestors]: The strike is on and shall continue!
The strike is on and shall continue!
Falsehoods won't be tolerated!
[Rita]: Sudhendu Babu.
[Sudhendu]: The commissioner is waiting. Come.
[Protestors]: The strike is on and shall continue!
[Sudhendu]: How's Janice? [Rita]: She's fine, sir.
Sir, this urgent meeting with the CM...
[Sudhendu]: Wait.
[Commissioner]: Sir. [Sudhendu]: Yes?
[Commissioner]: If this is the response time
of the Head of the Reserve Force,
the rest of the force will remain in reserve forever.
[Sudhendu]: Come.
[Commissioner]: Look, the CM is personally involved in this case.
[Rita]: What's the case, sir?
[Commissioner]: It's a homicide.
[Rita]: But this should be a Detective Department case.
What can I do in this...
[Commissioner]: Do you know Dheeraj Jaiswal?
[Rita]: Of course, the industrialist.
[Commissioner]: His daughter was murdered last night.
(knocking on the door)
[Chief Minister]: Come in.
Please.
[Chief Minister]: Have you briefed her?
[Commissioner]: Yes.
[Chief Minister]: It was brutal.
I didn't even have the courage to look at her one last time.
Dheeraj and I were classmates at Don Bosco.
Ahana, his daughter, was like my own daughter.
[Commissioner]: The CM wants you to return to the Detective Department.
[Chief Minister]: I know.
You haven't been in the field for two years now.
But everyone remembers the Lakhaipur double murder case.
[Commissioner]: You're now DCDD Special.
Joint CP and DCDD Crime won't interfere.
You'll report directly to me.
[Rita]: But... [Commissioner]: And Inspector Arjun Sinha
from the Homicide Squad will be on this case.
[Chief Minister]: But under you.
Thank you.
Uh... Yes, DCP Brown.
No matter how you've been for the past two years...
I trust you.
[Sudhendu]: Come.
[Rita]: Sudhendu Babu. [Sudhendu]: Yes?
(indistinct protesting)
[Rita]: After all these years, why me?
[Sudhendu]: Rita, this case needs you.
Belgachia Road is your crime scene.
The body hasn't been shifted yet.
Go, hurry up. Go.
(indistinct protesting)
[Male reporter]: Perhaps this is the very house
where Ahana Jaiswal breathed her last.
Just imagine. Is a door or a window in your own home perhaps left open?
Oh, I can see from here that the police vehicles have arrived.
The commissioner in this case, Rita Brown, has arrived at the scene.
We haven't yet received any clues to suggest that...
(police sirens wailing)
(indistinct chatter)
(barricades moving)
(ambulance siren wailing)
[Rita]: Gloves.
(indistinct sound on TV)
[Police officer]: Ma'am.
Inspector Arjun Sinha, DD Homicide.
[Rita]: Call me Rita.
[Arjun Sinha]: This is the SI's report so far.
[Rita]: Who found the body? [Arjun]: The guard found it.
He's been called for questioning.
[Rita]: Did no one in the building see anything?
[Arjun]: More than half the building is empty,
but questioning is underway.
[Rita]: Okay.
(cameras clicking)
(flies humming)
(cameras clicking)
[Rita]: Who mopped inside? Hmm?
[Constable 1]: Ma'am, I did it. Sorry. (stutters)
[Arjun]: How many weeks have passed since you joined the force?
[Constable 1]: Three weeks, sir. [Constable 2]: Sir, he...
He's not used to it yet.
He went to mark the body's position...
[Arjun]: And he vomited. [Constable 1]: Yes, sir.
[Arjun]: Unbelievable. Take him away.
[Constable 2]: Yes, sir. Come with me.
[Arjun]: I'm sorry.
[Rita]: Did you find her phone?
[Arjun]: No, we didn't find her phone.
We found 20,000 in cash and some expensive items.
I've put her phone on tracking.
[Rita]: Good.
Send this knife set for forensics, too.
[Arjun]: Knife set.
[Rita]: Where's the Jaiswal family?
[Arjun]: They came,
but they couldn't bear to see the body in its condition.
[Rita]: What did she do?
[Arjun]: She used to work in an NGO. 'Punurutthan'.
[Rita]: The richest family in Kolkata.
And their daughter lives in an area like this?
[Arjun]: Listen. Whose name is the flat in?
[Constable 1]: Julie Sarkar.
She lives alone in Apartment 3.
She rented this place to the victim six months ago.
[Arjun]: So, didn't she hear anything?
[Constable 1]: She's deaf, sir.
[Arjun]: Who does she live with?
[Constable 1]: There's a nurse, but she's elderly.
[Arjun]: Is she deaf, too?
[Constable 2]: Ma'am. Sir, excuse me.
The security guard is here.
[Rita]: Let's go. [Constable 2]: This way.
[Guard]: I don't know anything, ma'am. The door was open.
I just went there...
[Rita]: Who came to meet Ahana yesterday?
[Guard]: I don't know.
[Arjun]: What do you mean you don't know?
There's an entry register, right? Where is it?
[Guard]: There's no register.
Mr Dasgupta didn't bring a new register.
[Rita]: CCTV camera?
[Guard]: I'd told Mr Dasgupta about it.
[Rita]: Who's this Dasgupta?
[Constable]: He's the building's secretary, ma'am.
[Arjun]: Who all used to come to meet Ahana?
(guard stammering)
[Arjun]: Don't you dare say you don't know.
I'll haul you to the police station.
[Guard]: No, no.
I know, I know. I'm telling you.
Her elder brother, Sanjay.
Her friends, too. Miss Shefali.
And her housemaid Maya.
She used to come here before. Now, she doesn't.
Yes, and another boy used to come here.
He wore round glasses.
But I don't know his name.
[Arjun]: Was Ahana at home yesterday, or did she go out?
[Guard]: I... I don't...
[Rita]: You don't know.
[Rita]: Take him away. [Constable]: Yes, ma'am.
[Constable]: Come on. That's it for now.
[Arjun]: From all the stuff in the house,
I can't understand anything about the victim's personality.
[Rita]: Ahana.
No pictures of the family.
No fiction books on the shelf,
but a whole lot of pictures of birds flying.
Actually, seems like she just wanted freedom.
(hangers in wardrobe sliding)
[Durga]: Okay, listen. Take all the fingerprints from the car.
Then all of those will be separated. Understood?
[Rita]: Durga, how are you?
[Durga]: Hey! Rita Brown! Finally back!
(Durga laughs)
[Durga]: You look like shit.
[Rita]: Inspector Arjun Sinha.
[Durga]: Oh! [Arjun]: Hi, sir.
[Arjun]: I've heard a lot about you.
(Durga chuckles)
[Durga]: You must've heard only bad things.
[Rita]: Durga.
You're a Kolkata Police legend.
That's bad without a doubt.
(Durga chuckles)
(flies humming)
[Arjun]: Sir, what do you think looking at the evidence so far?
[Durga]: We reached the crime scene at 11:00 AM.
And the local police station gave information 2 hours
after finding the body.
Well, your police station finds less evidence and destroys more.
No forced entry. No fingerprints, no footprints.
It's a clean job.
They must've covered themselves with plastic.
No real prints.
[Arjun]: This is a clove knot. [Durga]: Yeah.
[Rita]: This explains the long-sleeved clothes.
These marks seem old.
[Durga]: She was a cutter.
Not suicidal, but self-harm for pain.
[Arjun]: Any idea about the time of death?
[Durga]: It must be between 11:00 PM and 2:00 AM.
And Bagchi will tell the exact time after the autopsy.
[Rita]: Okay, I'll see you tomorrow.
[Durga]: Rita Brown.
[Anirban]: 'It's not only shocking,'
'but appalling.'
'It has happened in our own backyard.'
'In Belgachia, Kolkata,'
'a 23-year-old girl has been murdered.' [Rita]: Thank you.
[Anirban]: 'This case is being investigated by DCDD Rita Brown.'
'It's being hailed as a masterstroke,'
'saying that a woman will seek justice for another.'
'But will it really be the case?'
[Nitin]: 'Cheers, Rita.'
'Cheers.'
[Rita]: Cheers.
[Anirban]: 'For another woman...'
[Anirban]: 'It looks good on paper.' [Rita]: One more.
[Anirban]: 'But will it really be the case?'
(door opening)
[Janice]: Hi, darling.
Have you eaten?
I made Jalfrezi.
(indistinct chatter on TV)
(plate clinking)
(glass thudding)
(Rita pouring liquor)
(ice cubes clinking)
(indistinct chatter on TV)
[Rita]: Cheers, mom.
[Janice]: Cheers, darling.
It's quite late.
I think you should put something in your stomach first.
[Rita]: I'll eat in a bit.
[Janice]: It's always 'in a bit'.
It's no fun for me, you know,
messaging you all the time, telling you to eat.
[Rita]: No fun for me either.
[Janice]: Rita Brown, don't argue with your mother.
[Rita]: Janice Brown, don't nag your daughter.
I should've just taken the officer's apartment.
[Janice]: I heard that.
(Rita kissing Janice's forehead)
[Rita]: I wanted you to hear that.
[Janice]: Hmm, don't forget Bertha's funeral the day after.
It's at the church.
If you miss it for work, she'll never forgive me.
(indistinct chatter on radio)
[Man 1]: Gross! What's happening to this city day by day?
[Man 2]: Yes, there are no jobs.
And there's no effort made just to survive.
Thefts, robberies, and murders have become quite common lately.
[Man 1]: You're absolutely right.
(camera clicking)
(door opening)
[Durga]: Bagchi, how's it going?
[Bagchi]: I spent ten hours stitching the head back to the body.
That's all. The preliminary autopsy report is ready.
Give it to him.
[Durga]: Did you prepare this preliminary autopsy report?
Did you find anything?
[Man]: Sir, actually, the cause of death is
a ruptured medulla oblongata.
[Durga]: I see.
Anything out of the ordinary?
Huh?
[Bagchi]: Don't worry, Durga.
Everything will come in the detailed autopsy report.
[Durga]: No, I'm not worried about that.
Actually, the media is hounding us for information.
We can't afford any leaks, right?
Hmm.
(police car stopping) (tyres screeching)
(car door opens)
(car door closes)
(indistinct chatter)
[Constable]: Ma'am.
[Mukherjee]: They say they will give me a few rupees as a bribe.
(Mukherjee laughs)
[Mukherjee]: Hey, isn't that...
That's Rita Brown, right?
Only God knows what's happening.
Again…
[Constable]: Sorry, Ma'am. The cabin will be cleaned by evening.
[Arjun]: Good morning.
[Rita]: Let's hope it is.
[Arjun]: This is Ahana Jaiswal's file.
The CDR report will be here by evening.
[Rita]: I need a list of everything found at Ahana's house.
[Arjun]: Right away.
(chair thudding)
(papers flying)
(Rita blowing air)
(drawer opening and shutting)
(blinds dropping)
[Constable]: Ma'am, let me do it. [Rita]: It's okay.
[Arjun]: Scanning for fingerprints and splatters
on the recovered items is underway.
The entire list will be ready by evening.
[Rita]: Let's go meet the Jaiswal family.
[Female reporter]: Rita Brown...
[Reporters]: Kolkata wants to know...
[Male reporter]: Ma'am, any suspects in the case?
(indistinct chatter)
[Rita]: Take us to Joka. [Driver]: Yes, ma'am.
(indistinct chatter)
(eagle screams)
(police car stopping) (tyres screeching)
(car doors closing)
[Woman]: Greetings, ma'am. Come in.
[Guard]: The guests have arrived. They are here.
[Arjun]: Such a big house, and only four people live here.
[Woman]: Mr Jaiswal will join you in a bit.
[Rita]: Alright.
[Dheeraj]: Beautiful, right?
[Rita]: She really was.
[Dheeraj]: It's a 250-year-old mansion.
It was in ruins before. I got the entire restoration done.
[Rita]: Oh.
[Dheeraj]: Dheeraj Jaiswal.
[Rita]: DCDD Rita Brown, Kolkata Police.
This is Inspector Arjun Sinha from the Homicide Squad.
[Arjun]: Sir.
[Dheeraj]: Come in.
Nonnie, my wife. Please.
[Dheeraj]: Tea? [Rita]: No, thank you.
[Rita]: We have some questions for you.
[Dheeraj]: Please, go ahead.
[Arjun]: Mr Jaiswal, when did you last see Ahana?
[Dheeraj]: Last week, there was a fundraiser at Ahana's NGO,
'Punurutthan'.
They work for the education of sex workers' children.
[Rita]: How was your relationship with Ahana?
[Song]: "I'm enchanted."
"I'm enchanted by those playful eyes."
"I'm enchanted."
"I'm enchanted by those playful eyes."
[Dheeraj]: Normal.
Like it should be between a father and his daughter.
[Rita]: Why did Ahana live alone?
I mean, you're here, and she was there in that old building.
[Dheeraj]: That was the only flat she could afford on her NGO salary.
I wanted her to join me in the business.
But she wanted to be independent.
She didn't want anything from us.
[Arjun]: Sir, do you have any disputes with anyone?
Any business rivals?
[Dheeraj]: Every businessman has rivals, Mr Sinha.
Yes, but nothing
that'd lead to something like this happening to my daughter.
[Arjun]: When did you last speak with Ahana?
[Dheeraj]: Four or five days ago.
She used to speak with us very little anyway, but...
[Nonnie]: She used to speak with Sanjay.
[Rita]: Can we talk to Sanjay?
(dial tone ringing)
[Dheeraj]: Come downstairs.
He was the one who identified the body.
He's a little disturbed.
They are like peas in a pod, the brother and sister.
[Nonnie]: Step.
[Rita]: Sorry?
[Nonnie]: Stepbrother and stepsister.
[Dheeraj]: Sanjay was two years old
when Akriti, my first wife, passed away.
Nonnie has taken care of him since he was four years old.
[Arjun]: Sanjay.
We know this won't be easy for you, but just a few questions.
[Rita]: When did you last meet Ahana?
[Sanjay]: I spoke with her three to four days ago.
[Arjun]: Strange. No phone was found at Ahana's house.
[Sanjay]: If you didn't find it, ask your team.
Someone must've taken it.
[Arjun]: Sorry?
[Sanjay]: It was an expensive phone. I brought it from the US for Ahana.
[Rita]: Which phone was it?
[Sanjay]: Vertu.
[Rita]: Besides you, did any other friends meet Ahana?
Do you know about her friend circle or colleagues?
[Sanjay]: Ahana is the introvert type.
Was.
She didn't have many friends.
Just one named Shefali, her best friend.
They have been together since nursery.
[Rita]: Any boyfriends?
[Sanjay]: There was one. Saikat.
They broke up two months ago, but he kept bothering her.
[Arjun]: Their numbers and address?
[Sanjay]: I don't have his, but Shefali...
[Rita]: Mrs Jaiswal?
[Nonnie]: Ballygunge Place, opposite South Point High School.
[Rita]: Was Ahana under any stress?
Had she ever shared anything?
[Sanjay]: No. Everything was normal.
[Dheeraj]: Yeah, everybody used to like her.
She was very happy.
[Rita]: There are marks on her hand.
[Dheeraj]: That... That was probably just a phase.
Her safety was my priority.
[Arjun]: Sir, safety from what?
[Dheeraj]: From everything.
That's why I was insisting
that if she didn't want to live with us,
she could at least keep our car
so that my driver, Mantu, could stay with her.
[Arjun]: So, can we call Mantu? [Sanjay]: Mantu is on leave.
Raju is here in his place.
[Arjun]: Then call him. [Sanjay]: I fired Raju.
[Arjun]: Why? [Sanjay]: Because the guy was a scoundrel.
Sorry.
The thing is that Ahana didn't know how to drive.
So, if she had to go somewhere at night, Raju would take her,
but he'd make some excuse for the return pick-up.
Every time. Then I had to go.
When I spoke with him,
he started talking nonsense about her work.
Had I not been in the office, I would've given him two slaps.
[Arjun]: Give me Raju's number.
[Rita]: It's a routine question.
Can you tell me where you were on the night of the murder?
[Dheeraj]: Nonnie and I were at the Calcutta Club.
We got back a bit late, around 11:30 PM or 12:00 AM.
We had to drop the Mitras on the way.
[Arjun]: And Sanjay, you?
[Sanjay]: I got free from the factory at 6:00 PM.
I went to DK's Club for squash.
Then I came home.
[Arjun]: And your wife?
[Sanjay]: Annie... Ananya... She's in California.
A business trip.
[Rita]: We'll have to ask her some questions, too.
Let us know when she returns.
Okay, thank you.
We'll be in touch.
[Dheeraj]: Miss Brown.
Can I speak with you alone for two minutes?
(sound of Arjun's footsteps)
[Dheeraj]: The CM has full trust in you, and I have trust in him.
He has told me that you'll solve this case quickly.
[Rita]: I'll try.
But every case takes its own time.
[Dheeraj]: Don't stretch it too long for my patience
to wear thin, DCP Brown.
[Man]: Sir, the CM is on the line.
[Dheeraj]: Yes, Srijan. Yes, we spoke.
Yeah.
Okay. Yeah.
[Arjun]: All good?
Ahana's phone location has been traced.
She was at the NGO all day. Then she went to Roy's Pub.
She came home from there at around 11:30 PM,
and her phone was on until 11:53 PM.
After that, it went off.
[Rita]: I'll check Roy's Pub.
You talk to Ahana's friend.
[Arjun]: Alright. [Rita]: Let's go.
(disco music playing)
[Rita]: Manager?
[Bartender]: Yes, ma'am. Sir.
[Manager]: How can I help you, ma'am?
[Rita]: DCDD Rita Brown, Kolkata Police.
[Manager]: Okay.
[Rita]: Show me the CCTV footage of 22nd February.
[Manager]: Sure, ma'am. Come this way.
Anything else?
(Rita's phone ringing)
[Rita]: I need a copy of this.
[Rita]: Yes, Arjun. [Arjun]: Shefali isn't at home.
I've got her ad agency's address. I'm going...
[Rita]: Let it be. Call Shefali to the department later.
We have a suspect.
(indistinct chatter)
[Rita]: Raju, our prime suspect.
Read this.
[Arjun]: This guy has heroin smuggling charges against him.
[Constable]: Ma'am, sir.
[Rita]: Did you find him? [Constable]: No, ma'am.
[Constable]: Raju hasn't returned home for the last few days.
[Rita]: I knew it.
I know who to talk to.
[Arjun]: So, should we go now?
[Rita]: He only meets over breakfast.
See you in the morning.
[Girl]: Your dear Miss Ahana is no longer between us today.
That's why I've come here.
Ahana was my friend.
We'll now sing the songs composed by Rabindranath Tagore,
the ones she had taught us.
[Song]: "Enrich my life with the fiery touchstone."
"Purify my life."
"Let your touch"
"upon the darkness..."
"Purify my life."
[Nitin]: 'How was the day, Miss Brown?'
[Song]: "Enrich my life with the fiery touchstone."
(man coughing)
[Song]: "Let the flame radiate"
"day and night through my songs."
"Let the flame radiate"
"day and night through my songs."
"Enrich my life with the fiery touchstone."
"Let your touch upon the darkness"
"make new stars bloom through the night."
"There will be light"
"everywhere I look."
"All my suffering will be set ablaze..."
"All my suffering will be set ablaze and soar towards heaven."
"Enrich my life with the fiery touchstone."
(tram bells ringing)
[Song]: "Don't try to cross the line."
"People fall at level crossings."
"No High Court case for the matters."
"We move together in Benachity Underground,"
"beneath the earth in tunnels."
"From the four corners of Bengal, it's all the same value."
"Smoke-roasted meat and cutlets from the chimney heat."
"Leaves on the trees turn shades of red."
"Chlorophyll fades as nature absorbs the stress."
"Benachity, calls echo everywhere, trouble mixed with steel blades."
"Benachity, calls echo everywhere,"
"meaning smoke rises over everything broken."
[Arjun]: What will we get here?
[Rita]: The entire crime, smuggling, and gambling history of Kolkata.
And if you're lucky, Raju's location.
[Arjun]: Who will give that?
[Rita]: The Wikipedia of Kolkata crime. John John.
[Arjun]: Two Johns?
[Rita]: His father's name was also John,
and so was his grandfather's.
One was Anglo and the other Chinese.
The confusion got the better of them, I think.
You've never been to Chinatown before?
[Arjun]: Never.
[Rita]: Breakfast will be very good today.
[Arjun]: Hey, had you said so earlier,
I wouldn't have eaten before.
By the way, where did you meet this John John?
[Rita]: That's a long story.
(knocking on door)
(door squeaks)
[Rita]: This place is quite different.
It has its own shades.
[Arjun]: Meaning?
[Rita]: It's a market by day, a restaurant by evening,
and a den of crime by night.
(rapping continues) [Song]: "Benachity, Durgapur Junction!"
"This is the place where we all function."
"Benachity to station, watch the elevation."
"If you look around the town, you're gonna find more."
"From the crowded streets where the markets always glow."
"Go home, and you will find a corpse."
"I tell mother not to be afraid."
"If a train is late, you should not board that train."
"I was born here and I will die here."
"But death is not written in my destiny today."
"The steel city's..."
[Rita]: How's business, John John?
[John John]: Rita Brown.
But you haven't come just to ask that.
[Rita]: Ahana Jaiswal murder case.
[John]: No, I had nothing to do with that.
[Rita]: I need her driver. Raju.
[Arjun]: He lives in the tram depot.
[Rita]: There are heroin smuggling charges against him.
[John]: And robbery, too.
Yes, that tram depot driver, Raju.
Where is he these days?
I had to make a delivery. So, I thought...
Really?
Are you sure?
Okay.
He hasn't returned home for several days.
That can only mean one thing. He's got a new stash.
A smackhead can live without water, but not without smack.
Near Shobhabazar Ghat.
Momos?
[Rita]: Today's breakfast is done.
