POWER

00:02:33.159 --> 00:02:35.556 align:center
(Shivani) The law will take
its own course, minister.

00:02:35.600 --> 00:02:37.452 align:center
-(man) Yes.
-But, perhaps, you're forgetting

00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:39.412 align:center
it wasn't law that
put you in that chair.

00:02:39.622 --> 00:02:40.882 align:center
Yes, Ms. Shivani.

00:02:41.760 --> 00:02:44.356 align:center
If Bhopal does not
come through for Baapji,

00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:46.079 align:center
Saburi will respond.

00:02:49.720 --> 00:02:51.197 align:center
Good morning. This is Amitabh Sinha.

00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:53.356 align:center
It's Baapji's second
bail hearing today.

00:02:53.658 --> 00:02:55.501 align:center
And to give you
live updates, I am here...

00:02:55.840 --> 00:02:58.120 align:center
in front of
the temple of justice.

00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:17.892 align:center
(devotees cheering)
Long live Kashyap-ji!

00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:20.066 align:center
Long live Kashyap-ji!

00:03:20.160 --> 00:03:22.306 align:center
Long live Kashyap-ji!

00:03:22.387 --> 00:03:24.593 align:center
Long live Kashyap-ji!

00:03:24.843 --> 00:03:26.840 align:center
Long live Kashyap-ji!

00:03:27.010 --> 00:03:28.697 align:center
(devotees) Long live Baapji!

00:03:28.760 --> 00:03:30.664 align:center
Long live Baapji!

00:03:30.745 --> 00:03:32.251 align:center
Long live Baapji!

00:03:32.640 --> 00:03:35.440 align:center
(reporters clamouring)

00:03:48.833 --> 00:03:51.686 align:center
(crowd cheering for Baapji)

00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:09.280 align:center
(Dinesh) Your Honour...

00:04:09.880 --> 00:04:12.159 align:center
My client has been
accused of committing

00:04:12.239 --> 00:04:14.400 align:center
the crime while he was in seclusion

00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:18.639 align:center
because that's the only time
when there is no one around him.

00:04:19.200 --> 00:04:22.840 align:center
Which is why
he's unable to present a witness

00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:26.136 align:center
to confirm that he wasn't raping
but meditating in seclusion.

00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:30.959 align:center
And the chosen time
of the alleged rape

00:04:32.200 --> 00:04:35.159 align:center
points towards a conspiracy,
not a coincidence.

00:04:40.999 --> 00:04:44.599 align:center
Ms. Meenu's history of promiscuity
is anyway public knowledge.

00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:49.159 align:center
Two of Meenu's classmates have
signed affidavits that reveal

00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:55.076 align:center
Ms. Meenu and her English professor,
40-year-old Jaideep Modak,

00:04:55.159 --> 00:04:56.720 align:center
were having an affair.

00:04:56.959 --> 00:05:00.880 align:center
Mr. Jaideep Modak used to
give her special treatment.

00:05:01.559 --> 00:05:03.360 align:center
Gave her special assignments.

00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:07.376 align:center
And they used these assignments as
an excuse to meet outside the class.

00:05:09.200 --> 00:05:11.599 align:center
(voice muffles) Now, it's important
to figure out

00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:14.480 align:center
whether Ms. Meenu's
adulterous behaviour

00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:17.919 align:center
was limited
to a professor or two,

00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:20.550 align:center
or was it a behavioural pattern?

00:05:21.280 --> 00:05:23.240 align:center
And if it is, in fact, a pattern,

00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:27.320 align:center
then it's possible
that Meenu was attracted to Baapji.

00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:29.837 align:center
And because Baapji rejected her,

00:05:30.119 --> 00:05:34.599 align:center
she got upset
and accused him of rape.

00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:38.480 align:center
(whispers) Object.

00:05:40.320 --> 00:05:41.920 align:center
But the truth needs no defence.

00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:44.788 align:center
Your Honour, I am submitting

00:05:45.019 --> 00:05:47.567 align:center
Baapji's potency test reports.

00:05:47.760 --> 00:05:51.119 align:center
It clearly states that he's beyond
the pleasures of the flesh.

00:05:52.280 --> 00:05:54.959 align:center
Baapji is a clinically
impotent person.

00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:00.480 align:center
And how could a person who cannot
have sex commit sexual assault?

00:06:02.561 --> 00:06:03.759 align:center
Your Honour...

00:06:03.840 --> 00:06:07.280 align:center
On one side is the accused,
who is sexually impotent.

00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:10.800 align:center
And on the other side
is this so-called "victim,"

00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:14.720 align:center
whose medical report
has no evidence of penetration.

00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:17.840 align:center
This case is so straightforward

00:06:18.159 --> 00:06:19.805 align:center
that it should immediately

00:06:19.880 --> 00:06:21.960 align:center
be dismissed, Your Honour.
Thank you.

00:06:27.119 --> 00:06:29.840 align:center
(Judge Jadeja) Mr. Bhalerao,
your statement, please?

00:06:36.840 --> 00:06:39.720 align:center
What is "impotent"
called in Hindi?

00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:44.439 align:center
Dinesh-ji, the truth
needs no defence.

00:06:45.039 --> 00:06:46.039 align:center
Tell us.

00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:49.757 align:center
But yes, if Chakosi's
followers find out

00:06:49.840 --> 00:06:53.119 align:center
that he called
their father impotent,

00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:55.436 align:center
his own manhood will be at risk.

00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:58.157 align:center
-(Dinesh) Objection, Your Honour.
-(Judge Jadeja) Sustained.

00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:01.159 align:center
Your Honour, I wish to understand
who is on trial here

00:07:01.320 --> 00:07:04.800 align:center
because the way Dinesh-ji
has been arguing for the past hour,

00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:06.989 align:center
it seems like
the one who's on trial

00:07:07.013 --> 00:07:08.519 align:center
is Meenu Rawat,
not Sunil Chakosi.

00:07:08.760 --> 00:07:10.479 align:center
Enough with the drama, Bhalerao-ji.

00:07:15.840 --> 00:07:19.400 align:center
Meenu had relations
with one of her teachers.

00:07:20.840 --> 00:07:23.400 align:center
Her friends told you that?

00:07:23.840 --> 00:07:26.439 align:center
It's called evidence, Mr. Bhalerao.

00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:28.999 align:center
Are you sure you have a law degree?

00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:34.157 align:center
Harassing two kids
into signing a random affidavit

00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:36.519 align:center
cannot be called evidence.
It is intimidation.

00:07:36.999 --> 00:07:38.599 align:center
Come to the point, Mr. Bhalerao.

00:07:41.840 --> 00:07:43.398 align:center
A girl gets on a bus,

00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.458 align:center
along with her
boyfriend, past midnight.

00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:50.600 align:center
-(melancholic music)
-Six men attack her with a rod.

00:07:50.880 --> 00:07:52.479 align:center
And rape her.

00:07:54.760 --> 00:07:58.079 align:center
Despite all this,
some people still ask,

00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:00.680 align:center
"Why did that girl
step out so late?"

00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:04.079 align:center
"Why was she with her boyfriend?"
"Why did she get on an empty bus?"

00:08:05.200 --> 00:08:08.996 align:center
The kind of language that Dinesh-ji
just used for Meenu Rawat

00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:10.999 align:center
are symptoms of the same disease.

00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:15.680 align:center
If these six men's genitals were
also tested by stroking a feather,

00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:19.400 align:center
it's possible that due to fear, they
wouldn't have been aroused either.

00:08:21.280 --> 00:08:24.040 align:center
You see, when the law
screws you over,

00:08:24.280 --> 00:08:26.320 align:center
even the mightiest go limp.

00:08:26.520 --> 00:08:28.959 align:center
(Judge Jadeja) Mr. Bhalerao,
mind your language.

00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:32.079 align:center
Your Honour,
this is a case of violation,

00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:36.680 align:center
which doesn't fit
the traditional definition of rape.

00:08:38.880 --> 00:08:42.159 align:center
But does that mean
that rape was not committed?

00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:45.640 align:center
It was.

00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:49.279 align:center
Dinesh-ji, you might recall

00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:51.795 align:center
that we amended the law

00:08:51.819 --> 00:08:53.920 align:center
in memory of
that brave child Nirbhaya.

00:08:56.359 --> 00:08:59.119 align:center
The Nirbhaya Act states very clearly

00:09:00.800 --> 00:09:04.800 align:center
that the legal definition of rape
is not limited to penetration.

00:09:05.920 --> 00:09:07.076 align:center
Your Honour...

00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:11.800 align:center
Just because of this man's arrest,
the victim's house was burnt to ashes.

00:09:13.520 --> 00:09:15.156 align:center
If you grant him bail,

00:09:15.239 --> 00:09:16.667 align:center
it's impossible to predict

00:09:16.691 --> 00:09:18.920 align:center
what he might do with
his unbridled power.

00:09:20.800 --> 00:09:22.720 align:center
Anyway, this case falls under POCSO,

00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:24.999 align:center
which is non-bailable.

00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:31.680 align:center
(Judge Jadeja) Bail denied.

00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:40.735 align:center
(devotees murmuring)

00:09:41.280 --> 00:09:43.678 align:center
(crowd agitating)

00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:48.039 align:center
Calm down.

00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:50.520 align:center
(crowd agitating)

00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:51.800 align:center
Have faith.

00:09:51.959 --> 00:09:54.116 align:center
Baapji didn't get bail.
He's going to stay in jail.

00:09:54.199 --> 00:09:56.399 align:center
(devotee 1) Is his rebirth not today?

00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:57.480 align:center
It will happen.

00:09:57.760 --> 00:10:00.316 align:center
Have faith. I am amidst you.

00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:01.720 align:center
I am with you.

00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:03.156 align:center
(devotee 2) We want Baapji
right now.

00:10:03.239 --> 00:10:04.640 align:center
But I am here!

00:10:05.115 --> 00:10:06.855 align:center
(crowd's agitation rises)

00:10:13.766 --> 00:10:15.846 align:center
(Baapji) How are you, children?

00:10:16.880 --> 00:10:19.481 align:center
What shall we do
when darkness falls?

00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:21.521 align:center
We turn on the lights.

00:10:22.520 --> 00:10:24.999 align:center
What shall we do
if there's no electricity?

00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:26.880 align:center
We light up the lamps.

00:10:27.319 --> 00:10:29.677 align:center
And if the lamps run out of oil?

00:10:29.880 --> 00:10:31.279 align:center
Then what shall we do?

00:10:31.680 --> 00:10:34.840 align:center
-We will wait for dawn.
-(reporters clamouring)

00:10:35.199 --> 00:10:37.677 align:center
No matter how thick
the darkness gets...

00:10:37.760 --> 00:10:40.116 align:center
it is not eternal, children.

00:10:40.199 --> 00:10:42.640 align:center
In the end, light finds its way.

00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:45.878 align:center
That girl has lost her way.

00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:47.720 align:center
To show her the right path

00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:50.560 align:center
-is our duty.
-(phone vibrating)

00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:56.040 align:center
And so the way you have
protected me with your love,

00:10:56.119 --> 00:11:00.599 align:center
you should extend the same love
to that girl.

00:11:00.680 --> 00:11:03.360 align:center
(devotees cheering)
Long live Baapji!

00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:09.325 align:center
(cheering intensifies)

00:11:13.640 --> 00:11:15.440 align:center
As long as you are here...

00:11:17.025 --> 00:11:18.626 align:center
Saburi is safe.

00:11:25.800 --> 00:11:27.600 align:center
(Malviya) Where did
so much money come from?

00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:30.757 align:center
Who gave you the money?

00:11:30.840 --> 00:11:31.846 align:center
Tell me.

00:11:32.999 --> 00:11:34.159 align:center
(Jasleen) What is this?

00:11:36.999 --> 00:11:38.239 align:center
What is this?

00:11:39.920 --> 00:11:42.999 align:center
Look... If you don't
explain this money,

00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:45.920 align:center
Meenu will lose
all her credibility.

00:11:46.999 --> 00:11:48.720 align:center
Nobody will believe her.

00:11:50.199 --> 00:11:52.039 align:center
Tell me what this is.

00:11:57.800 --> 00:11:59.560 align:center
Malviya, go out.

00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:05.600 align:center
But, madam, I found the evidence.

00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:09.279 align:center
Go... out.

00:12:20.920 --> 00:12:21.920 align:center
Dharampal...

00:12:23.119 --> 00:12:25.399 align:center
Tell me.
Where did this money come from?

00:12:30.280 --> 00:12:31.400 align:center
For Meenu's sake.

00:12:32.680 --> 00:12:35.039 align:center
(sombre music)

00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:42.600 align:center
Get in.

00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:44.677 align:center
-Drop him home.
-(constable) Yes, ma'am.

00:12:44.760 --> 00:12:46.119 align:center
-And don't stop anywhere.
-Okay.

00:12:48.520 --> 00:12:50.239 align:center
You're letting him go, madam?

00:12:51.880 --> 00:12:53.996 align:center
This money has nothing to do
with our case.

00:12:54.079 --> 00:12:55.196 align:center
What are you saying, madam?

00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.399 align:center
This money can prove that
the motive in this case is extortion.

00:12:59.119 --> 00:13:02.996 align:center
Give me ten minutes with him,
and I'll rip the truth out of him.

00:13:03.079 --> 00:13:05.399 align:center
-Madam, listen--
-What is this "madam" nonsense?

00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:10.239 align:center
Next time, if you don't follow
my orders, I'll report you.

00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:14.601 align:center
I am the investigating officer
on this case, not you.

00:13:14.760 --> 00:13:15.760 align:center
Got it?

00:13:17.560 --> 00:13:19.199 align:center
Do you get it or not?

00:13:22.319 --> 00:13:23.440 align:center
Yes.

00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:28.440 align:center
Go on.

00:13:54.680 --> 00:13:55.760 align:center
(man) Who is it?

00:13:57.239 --> 00:13:58.480 align:center
It's Chitra bhabhi.

00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:01.156 align:center
Her blender has broken down again.

00:14:01.239 --> 00:14:02.560 align:center
I'll be back.

00:14:15.319 --> 00:14:16.319 align:center
(whispers) Taai.

00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:19.159 align:center
Taai.

00:14:23.079 --> 00:14:24.079 align:center
Taai.

00:14:27.546 --> 00:14:29.906 align:center
The world should know
our truth, too.

00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:33.800 align:center
The world only needs stories
to gossip about, Jyoti.

00:14:35.239 --> 00:14:37.079 align:center
Nobody cares about the truth.

00:14:38.279 --> 00:14:39.800 align:center
I can't do it.

00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:42.880 align:center
I'm still stuck in that room.

00:14:49.800 --> 00:14:51.840 align:center
But we did get out, didn't we?

00:14:53.520 --> 00:14:55.399 align:center
And found ways to move on, too.

00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:58.560 align:center
Don't you have
those nightmares anymore?

00:14:59.959 --> 00:15:01.079 align:center
I do.

00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:05.477 align:center
But then I wake up from them
and move on with my life

00:15:05.560 --> 00:15:07.999 align:center
that I have worked very hard
to build, Jyoti.

00:15:09.560 --> 00:15:11.480 align:center
Did you wake up
or run away from them?

00:15:15.359 --> 00:15:18.079 align:center
Taai! Taai! Taai!

00:15:21.680 --> 00:15:23.880 align:center
(call for prayer)

00:15:25.520 --> 00:15:26.600 align:center
Here.

00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:32.477 align:center
That...

00:15:32.560 --> 00:15:34.840 align:center
Where did they take you
after the hearing?

00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:39.440 align:center
Don't worry. It's all good.

00:15:43.959 --> 00:15:44.959 align:center
How much is left?

00:15:47.999 --> 00:15:50.079 align:center
Enough for a few more months maybe.

00:15:51.680 --> 00:15:53.680 align:center
But I am not getting
any new contracts.

00:15:53.920 --> 00:15:55.560 align:center
All the trucks are idle.

00:15:57.159 --> 00:15:58.159 align:center
(doorbell rings)

00:15:59.680 --> 00:16:01.039 align:center
Who...

00:16:06.359 --> 00:16:08.119 align:center
Sharat bhai! Come, come.

00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:09.797 align:center
-What is this?
-Just some snacks.

00:16:09.880 --> 00:16:10.880 align:center
Come sit.

00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:12.956 align:center
You might have to reheat it.

00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:14.606 align:center
-Got these from Bhopal.
-Oh!

00:16:16.400 --> 00:16:17.400 align:center
Meenu...

00:16:18.119 --> 00:16:19.480 align:center
I have some news for you.

00:16:21.959 --> 00:16:22.959 align:center
What news?

00:16:23.239 --> 00:16:24.599 align:center
With ACP Jasleen's help,

00:16:24.623 --> 00:16:26.840 align:center
you've got admission
into a new school.

00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:28.597 align:center
-Really?
-Yes.

00:16:28.680 --> 00:16:30.999 align:center
But it's an army school.
Very strict.

00:16:31.959 --> 00:16:33.477 align:center
(Sharat chuckles)

00:16:33.560 --> 00:16:34.640 align:center
Fees?

00:16:41.880 --> 00:16:43.359 align:center
(phone ringing)

00:16:46.520 --> 00:16:47.680 align:center
Kharganj Police.

00:16:47.920 --> 00:16:51.239 align:center
(man) Bloody traitor! Terrorist!
Where's that whore, Jasleen?

00:16:51.760 --> 00:16:53.156 align:center
This is a rape case.

00:16:53.239 --> 00:16:56.920 align:center
How do "traitor" and "terrorist"
fit into it?

00:16:57.119 --> 00:16:59.920 align:center
I think you're calling
about the wrong issue.

00:17:01.319 --> 00:17:03.677 align:center
One point per call,
that was the deal.

00:17:03.760 --> 00:17:06.079 align:center
(Tara) No way. That wasn't the deal.

00:17:06.199 --> 00:17:08.156 align:center
Sushil-ji, you keep the point.

00:17:08.239 --> 00:17:11.156 align:center
Malviya sir and I
have placed our bets on "asshole".

00:17:11.239 --> 00:17:12.316 align:center
(collective chuckles)

00:17:12.399 --> 00:17:14.680 align:center
-(phone ringing)
-(Sushil) Now it's your phone.

00:17:17.199 --> 00:17:18.760 align:center
Kharganj Police Station.

00:17:19.199 --> 00:17:20.560 align:center
(woman 1) ACP Jasleen Singh?

00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:22.319 align:center
Who is it?

00:17:22.560 --> 00:17:25.999 align:center
I have some information
regarding Meenu Rawat's rape case.

00:17:26.959 --> 00:17:27.959 align:center
Just a minute.

00:17:29.959 --> 00:17:31.279 align:center
(Tara) Ma'am...

00:17:34.800 --> 00:17:37.036 align:center
Hello, ACP Jasleen here.

00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:39.959 align:center
(woman) There are more girls,
who are abused every day.

00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:41.999 align:center
(whispers)
Trace the call.

00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:44.079 align:center
Who am I speaking to?

00:17:45.239 --> 00:17:47.840 align:center
He believes
that he's blessing them.

00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:49.840 align:center
What's your name?

00:17:50.920 --> 00:17:52.359 align:center
Hello?

00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:55.480 align:center
Listen, don't be afraid.

00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:57.840 align:center
Your safety is our responsibility.

00:17:58.359 --> 00:18:01.480 align:center
The way you protected
Meenu and her family?

00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:04.480 align:center
To mark the girls,

00:18:04.560 --> 00:18:06.560 align:center
they would tie a black thread
on their wrists.

00:18:09.520 --> 00:18:12.797 align:center
I know you're trying to help us.

00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:14.876 align:center
But how can I trust you?

00:18:14.959 --> 00:18:18.520 align:center
I don't care
whether you trust me or not.

00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:21.680 align:center
Sunil Chakosi is a rapist.

00:18:23.760 --> 00:18:25.720 align:center
And what would I tell the court?

00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:30.119 align:center
That an unnamed woman
told me all this?

00:18:31.079 --> 00:18:34.156 align:center
From body to body,
atom to the universe wide...

00:18:34.239 --> 00:18:35.996 align:center
let power flow, far and wide.

00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:40.079 align:center
Guru is devotion. Guru is grace.
May Guru fill the entire space.

00:18:40.600 --> 00:18:42.720 align:center
Hello? Hello?

00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:48.680 align:center
Was the call traced?

00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:06.280 align:center
(school bell rings)

00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:13.319 align:center
Meenu?

00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:17.119 align:center
Why didn't you get your parents'
signature for the school trip?

00:19:17.840 --> 00:19:21.079 align:center
Ma'am, I can't make it to the trip.
I have to stay back in Bhopal.

00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:23.517 align:center
(student) "You're out of order.
The whole court is out of order!"

00:19:23.600 --> 00:19:24.800 align:center
(students laughing)

00:19:24.959 --> 00:19:26.239 align:center
(teacher) Silence!

00:19:29.239 --> 00:19:31.359 align:center
Okay, everyone,
focus on the blackboard.

00:19:31.920 --> 00:19:34.557 align:center
We were studying
the hybridisation of molecules,

00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:36.920 align:center
which react with
their chemical bond...

00:19:38.760 --> 00:19:41.360 align:center
SP1, SP2, SP3.

00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:44.020 align:center
(teacher continues talking)

00:19:44.060 --> 00:19:45.380 align:center
(music playing through earphone)

00:19:50.520 --> 00:19:52.921 align:center
Hi. Myself Bhaskar.

00:20:02.840 --> 00:20:04.876 align:center
How many times
have I told you, Lal sir?

00:20:04.959 --> 00:20:07.276 align:center
Call for me when you have to
use the bathroom.

00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:08.837 align:center
-I'll take you.
-What happened?

00:20:08.920 --> 00:20:11.236 align:center
I've cleaned him
and his bedding three times.

00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:14.219 align:center
-Quiet! Always yapping!
-Papa, Please.

00:20:14.520 --> 00:20:15.517 align:center
Don't touch me.

00:20:15.600 --> 00:20:17.357 align:center
-Step back.
-Okay.

00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:18.440 align:center
Bloody idiot.

00:20:18.440 --> 00:20:21.760 align:center
I'll skip a meal, but I can't
work here anymore. I'm leaving.

00:20:22.040 --> 00:20:24.720 align:center
-Shanti...
-Go, go...

00:20:25.119 --> 00:20:28.236 align:center
-Come, Papa.
-You leave too.

00:20:28.319 --> 00:20:30.276 align:center
No, I don't need anyone. No.

00:20:30.560 --> 00:20:31.600 align:center
I don't.

00:20:31.760 --> 00:20:34.399 align:center
You can't digest tea anymore.

00:20:34.959 --> 00:20:36.520 align:center
Cut back a little.

00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:40.760 align:center
1972...

00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:46.560 align:center
Bal Chattopadhyay
vs The State of Maharashtra.

00:20:48.600 --> 00:20:49.999 align:center
Three hearings...

00:20:50.199 --> 00:20:51.319 align:center
How many?

00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:53.357 align:center
-Three.
-Three hearings.

00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:55.440 align:center
Bright boy.

00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:59.600 align:center
In just three hearings,
I won that case.

00:21:03.760 --> 00:21:05.437 align:center
Has Sarita

00:21:05.520 --> 00:21:07.800 align:center
cooked pulses tonight or not?

00:21:09.800 --> 00:21:12.720 align:center
It's been 12 years since
your daughter-in-law left this house.

00:21:13.640 --> 00:21:15.359 align:center
You tell me about the case.

00:21:17.760 --> 00:21:19.600 align:center
I feel sorry...

00:21:19.999 --> 00:21:24.800 align:center
I feel sorry
that you still haven't understood.

00:21:25.840 --> 00:21:27.600 align:center
A good lawyer

00:21:27.840 --> 00:21:31.720 align:center
argues with precedence,
not punchlines.

00:21:35.959 --> 00:21:38.999 align:center
Tell me the truth...

00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:44.720 align:center
Tell me. Do you have a case or not?

00:21:47.840 --> 00:21:49.159 align:center
Be honest.

00:21:51.079 --> 00:21:52.079 align:center
I do.

00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:54.359 align:center
I can guide you.

00:21:55.680 --> 00:21:57.359 align:center
Who am I?

00:21:57.920 --> 00:21:59.996 align:center
Advocate Bhalerao!

00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.359 align:center
Advocate Kesarlal Bhalerao.

00:22:08.239 --> 00:22:12.399 align:center
God knows why
I sent you to law school.

00:22:17.520 --> 00:22:20.480 align:center
-I need to prepare for tomorrow.
-(yawns)

00:22:20.959 --> 00:22:22.837 align:center
I am fighting a very big case.

00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:25.495 align:center
(laughs)

00:22:29.760 --> 00:22:31.359 align:center
Tell me the truth.

00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:35.159 align:center
Have you seen
a courtroom from the inside?

00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:36.640 align:center
Huh?

00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:39.279 align:center
"Fighting a big case."

00:22:39.840 --> 00:22:41.319 align:center
What a liar.

00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:42.719 align:center
(scoffs)

00:22:44.840 --> 00:22:46.228 align:center
Your son is appearing

00:22:46.308 --> 00:22:48.920 align:center
in the most important case
of our time.

00:22:50.840 --> 00:22:54.199 align:center
And that too against
Advocate Govind Ved Prakash.

00:22:55.640 --> 00:22:56.720 align:center
Who's that?

00:22:59.239 --> 00:23:00.487 align:center
The most high-in-demand,

00:23:00.600 --> 00:23:03.168 align:center
high-profile defence lawyer
in the country.

00:23:03.520 --> 00:23:06.279 align:center
They call him
the Amitabh Bachchan of lawyers.

00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:09.720 align:center
Who is this Amitabh?

00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:15.640 align:center
Go to sleep.

00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:47.680 align:center
Age...

00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:52.119 align:center
is an issue of mind over matter.

00:23:54.560 --> 00:23:57.600 align:center
If you don't mind,
it doesn't matter.

00:23:58.039 --> 00:23:59.279 align:center
Who said this?

00:23:59.600 --> 00:24:01.560 align:center
-Mark Twain.
-(Govind) Correct!

00:24:02.159 --> 00:24:03.640 align:center
Just think about it

00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:07.520 align:center
There's some truth
to what Mark Twain said.

00:24:08.199 --> 00:24:11.399 align:center
There's an age that we really are...

00:24:12.319 --> 00:24:16.760 align:center
and then there's an age
that we feel we are.

00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:20.039 align:center
For example,
I am 58 years old.

00:24:20.440 --> 00:24:22.359 align:center
But, to be honest, I feel that,

00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:26.876 align:center
if I try to tuck in
my stomach a little,

00:24:26.959 --> 00:24:28.880 align:center
I can maybe feel 35.

00:24:30.720 --> 00:24:31.760 align:center
Yes?

00:24:32.279 --> 00:24:33.279 align:center
No?

00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:35.079 align:center
Sorry.

00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:38.039 align:center
All right, tell me then...

00:24:40.159 --> 00:24:41.520 align:center
What's your age?

00:24:42.159 --> 00:24:43.279 align:center
Seventeen years.

00:24:44.199 --> 00:24:46.959 align:center
The real age
or the age you feel you are?

00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:50.720 align:center
(mock laughs)
I am just kidding.

00:24:50.840 --> 00:24:52.359 align:center
Yes, 17 years.

00:24:52.520 --> 00:24:54.400 align:center
We must accept that,
after all,

00:24:54.947 --> 00:24:56.999 align:center
your birth certificate says so.

00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:02.199 align:center
What about your driver's licence?

00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:05.279 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:25:08.125 --> 00:25:09.405 align:center
Your Honour...

00:25:10.359 --> 00:25:15.076 align:center
this is a photocopy
of Meenu Rawat's driver's licence.

00:25:15.159 --> 00:25:16.199 align:center
Here you go.

00:25:17.880 --> 00:25:19.480 align:center
Now, please tell us.

00:25:19.560 --> 00:25:22.680 align:center
What's your age
on this driver's licence?

00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:28.480 align:center
It's right in front of you.
Please read it.

00:25:32.359 --> 00:25:33.840 align:center
E-Eighteen.

00:25:33.999 --> 00:25:35.279 align:center
Eighteen!

00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:38.640 align:center
Eighteen!

00:25:39.359 --> 00:25:41.760 align:center
The legal age to ride a bike.

00:25:44.560 --> 00:25:47.440 align:center
(Govind) So, I'm confused
about one thing.

00:25:47.560 --> 00:25:49.920 align:center
You're 17 years old.

00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:53.720 align:center
But a driver's licence
is issued at 18.

00:25:55.199 --> 00:25:57.477 align:center
So, how did you get one then?

00:25:57.560 --> 00:25:58.560 align:center
This licence...

00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:01.319 align:center
Go on. This licence?

00:26:03.080 --> 00:26:04.199 align:center
Please.

00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:06.999 align:center
This licence is fake.

00:26:09.186 --> 00:26:10.505 align:center
Fake?

00:26:12.560 --> 00:26:13.760 align:center
I see.

00:26:16.707 --> 00:26:17.947 align:center
Meenu-ji...

00:26:18.199 --> 00:26:20.477 align:center
English is
your favourite subject, right?

00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:23.160 align:center
Then, you should
use the correct word.

00:26:24.120 --> 00:26:25.801 align:center
The licence is not "fake".

00:26:26.760 --> 00:26:27.760 align:center
It's "forged".

00:26:28.960 --> 00:26:33.119 align:center
If I get my grey hair dyed,
my hair can be called fake.

00:26:33.680 --> 00:26:36.000 align:center
But if you create a document

00:26:36.079 --> 00:26:40.399 align:center
that lies to the law
and Constitution of our country,

00:26:42.320 --> 00:26:45.414 align:center
it will be called a forged document
because that is forgery.

00:26:47.040 --> 00:26:48.040 align:center
Anyway,

00:26:48.600 --> 00:26:52.760 align:center
we all know that you can't
forge a government document.

00:26:52.840 --> 00:26:56.999 align:center
So how did you get this licence?
Who made it?

00:26:59.587 --> 00:27:00.787 align:center
(stutters)

00:27:01.840 --> 00:27:02.840 align:center
I'll tell you.

00:27:03.800 --> 00:27:05.079 align:center
Your father made it, right?

00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:07.880 align:center
Y-yes.

00:27:08.279 --> 00:27:11.236 align:center
(Govind) It does make sense.
Your father is a transporter.

00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:15.274 align:center
And it's not a big deal
for him to forge a driver's licence.

00:27:16.680 --> 00:27:18.680 align:center
In fact, if he were here,

00:27:18.760 --> 00:27:19.760 align:center
which he's not.

00:27:20.427 --> 00:27:21.625 align:center
But if he were here,

00:27:21.706 --> 00:27:24.786 align:center
I would've told him
that he's a good father.

00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:27.797 align:center
Actually, I couldn't have.

00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:29.279 align:center
You see, I am a lawyer.

00:27:30.120 --> 00:27:32.681 align:center
And what he did for you is illegal.

00:27:34.760 --> 00:27:35.760 align:center
Your Honour,

00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:40.039 align:center
as per this driver's licence,
Meenu Rawat is not underage.

00:27:40.280 --> 00:27:44.440 align:center
And if she's not underage,
how is POCSO applicable?

00:27:45.560 --> 00:27:46.600 align:center
How?

00:27:48.160 --> 00:27:52.680 align:center
This case against my client
should be dismissed.

00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:56.920 align:center
-Please, can we all agree on this?
-I said that the licence is fake!

00:27:59.385 --> 00:28:01.105 align:center
Okay, Meenu-ji.

00:28:01.199 --> 00:28:03.480 align:center
Let's consider
what you're saying is true.

00:28:04.019 --> 00:28:05.378 align:center
The licence is fake.

00:28:07.567 --> 00:28:10.767 align:center
Was your 18th birthday party
fake too?

00:28:12.900 --> 00:28:13.940 align:center
That day...

00:28:14.120 --> 00:28:18.400 align:center
you told your friends that
it was your 18th birthday party.

00:28:20.225 --> 00:28:23.826 align:center
So, were you lying
to your friends then?

00:28:24.377 --> 00:28:26.738 align:center
Or are you lying to all of us now?

00:28:29.520 --> 00:28:30.959 align:center
Can't answer that, can you?

00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.640 align:center
Case number 305/2,
appear before the court.

00:28:42.925 --> 00:28:46.655 align:center
Your Honour, we obtained
Meenu-ji's birth certificate

00:28:46.736 --> 00:28:48.737 align:center
from Birsa Prakash Hospital.

00:28:48.840 --> 00:28:52.239 align:center
And when we inspected
the hospital, we learnt

00:28:52.760 --> 00:28:55.399 align:center
that 91 children's birth records
were incorrect.

00:28:55.800 --> 00:28:57.000 align:center
It's right here.

00:28:59.201 --> 00:29:02.158 align:center
So, Your Honour, it's evident

00:29:02.438 --> 00:29:05.158 align:center
that we cannot trust
this birth certificate.

00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:07.480 align:center
And if...

00:29:07.520 --> 00:29:10.480 align:center
there's so much confusion
around age,

00:29:10.640 --> 00:29:12.200 align:center
then why POCSO, Your Honour?

00:29:12.400 --> 00:29:14.360 align:center
Any remarks by the prosecution?

00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:23.223 align:center
Your Honour, it's been
a real privilege for me

00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:25.912 align:center
to witness this great lawyer

00:29:25.936 --> 00:29:27.841 align:center
argue this case over
the last few days.

00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:33.081 align:center
However, he might have read
the POCSO Act incorrectly.

00:29:33.360 --> 00:29:37.001 align:center
Or maybe he missed
the Child Protection Law, 2007.

00:29:37.841 --> 00:29:40.598 align:center
It clearly states,
that in case of any dispute,

00:29:40.681 --> 00:29:43.197 align:center
if matriculation certificate
is available,

00:29:43.280 --> 00:29:44.920 align:center
that would be considered

00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:47.073 align:center
the proof of the legal age
of a citizen.

00:29:47.320 --> 00:29:50.558 align:center
In the matriculation certificate,
Meenu's age is 17 years.

00:29:50.641 --> 00:29:52.117 align:center
Your Honour, I'd like to point out

00:29:52.241 --> 00:29:55.108 align:center
that the same school
admitted Meenu-ji

00:29:55.200 --> 00:29:57.880 align:center
on the basis of
this birth certificate.

00:29:58.000 --> 00:29:59.439 align:center
The law is the law, Your Honour.

00:30:01.560 --> 00:30:05.400 align:center
Okay. To be very honest,
even I don't know the truth.

00:30:06.160 --> 00:30:09.001 align:center
So, let us all place our trust
in science.

00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:12.200 align:center
During the filing of charge sheet,

00:30:12.921 --> 00:30:15.440 align:center
Meenu underwent
a bone ossification test.

00:30:15.881 --> 00:30:17.241 align:center
(Judge Jadeja) I've seen
the results.

00:30:17.280 --> 00:30:20.240 align:center
They are clinical, and rather
conclusive, Mr. Ved Prakash.

00:30:21.967 --> 00:30:23.047 align:center
Agreed, Your Honour.

00:30:23.961 --> 00:30:25.081 align:center
No rebuttal.

00:30:27.127 --> 00:30:29.566 align:center
The girl's age
has been determined to be 17 years.

00:30:30.280 --> 00:30:34.681 align:center
And so, this case will continue
to be tried under the POCSO Act.

00:30:35.360 --> 00:30:36.560 align:center
Bail denied.

00:30:37.240 --> 00:30:40.255 align:center
(gentle music)

00:30:46.387 --> 00:30:47.627 align:center
Congratulations.

00:30:48.520 --> 00:30:49.737 align:center
This is going to be fun.

00:30:57.761 --> 00:30:59.601 align:center
(prayer bells ringing)

00:31:00.841 --> 00:31:01.987 align:center
Then?

00:31:06.360 --> 00:31:09.478 align:center
Sushil-ji,
I respect your sentiments,

00:31:09.560 --> 00:31:11.720 align:center
but this is a police station,
not your house.

00:31:12.040 --> 00:31:13.446 align:center
Please stop it.

00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:15.480 align:center
(Jasleen) Yes?

00:31:15.721 --> 00:31:17.881 align:center
Did you find a lead on that caller?

00:31:18.760 --> 00:31:22.119 align:center
Not yet. The cyber cell is on it.

00:31:22.761 --> 00:31:24.001 align:center
(sighs)

00:31:26.360 --> 00:31:29.081 align:center
We just need to find
one girl with the thread.

00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:32.880 align:center
By the way,
it was a good day in court today.

00:31:33.199 --> 00:31:36.156 align:center
It's not easy to get bail denied
against Ved Prakash.

00:31:36.239 --> 00:31:37.239 align:center
Yes.

00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:40.640 align:center
I have a different feeling.

00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:45.239 align:center
I don't think today's hearing
was about Baapji's bail.

00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:47.640 align:center
Then what was it about?

00:31:48.399 --> 00:31:49.517 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:31:49.600 --> 00:31:51.607 align:center
What came to light
in court today

00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:53.687 align:center
was a proven history
and pattern of lying,

00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:55.916 align:center
which is at the core
of the victim's character.

00:31:55.999 --> 00:32:00.236 align:center
This girl is fake. The issue
is fake. Even her dad is fake.

00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:02.717 align:center
I'll go as far to say
the entire case is fake.

00:32:02.963 --> 00:32:04.319 align:center
Everything is fake...

00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:06.760 align:center
(overlapping) Fake! Fake!
Fake! And fake!

00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:10.079 align:center
(protestors jeering)

00:32:11.760 --> 00:32:13.637 align:center
(devotees chanting)
Baapji's word is good and pure.

00:32:13.718 --> 00:32:15.766 align:center
Meenu Rawat is a whore!

00:32:16.000 --> 00:32:18.825 align:center
(devotees chanting slogans
against Meenu)

00:32:21.920 --> 00:32:23.840 align:center
Good evening.
This is Amitabh Sinha.

00:32:24.600 --> 00:32:26.437 align:center
To appeal for peace and patience,

00:32:26.520 --> 00:32:29.319 align:center
Baapji has announced
a hunger strike in prison.

00:32:31.360 --> 00:32:33.599 align:center
MEENU RAWAT HAS ACCEPTED THAT
SHE HAS A HISTORY OF LYING...

00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:38.359 align:center
(Baapji) This is not a mere fast
but my meditation.

00:32:39.840 --> 00:32:42.720 align:center
I request you with folded hands

00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:47.641 align:center
that you need not follow my lead.

00:32:48.560 --> 00:32:51.760 align:center
You all eat wholeheartedly.

00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:54.319 align:center
That's what will make me happy.

00:32:58.720 --> 00:33:00.507 align:center
Bring it home, Amitabh.

00:33:03.040 --> 00:33:06.320 align:center
Amitabh, she has lied,
and we have to report that.

00:33:06.520 --> 00:33:08.319 align:center
(producer) Just read the prompter.

00:33:08.800 --> 00:33:11.179 align:center
A 17-year-old girl has stood up

00:33:20.123 --> 00:33:23.429 align:center
Come on, move back.

00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:26.236 align:center
(school admin) Jaideep Modak,
here's your last paycheck.

00:33:26.362 --> 00:33:27.399 align:center
Get out now.

00:33:27.480 --> 00:33:30.280 align:center

at Mahasherni School again.

(producer) Amitabh,
we have to report that.

00:34:16.400 --> 00:34:19.801 align:center
But as always, the nation
is divided into two camps.

00:34:20.239 --> 00:34:23.400 align:center
One thinks that the girl is lying
and the case is a conspiracy.

00:34:23.760 --> 00:34:26.892 align:center
Please don't go off script.
Please just read your lines.

00:34:27.440 --> 00:34:30.117 align:center
And the other thinks
that she's truthful and brave.

00:34:30.199 --> 00:34:31.279 align:center
What's the truth?

00:34:31.560 --> 00:34:33.637 align:center
Is this the courage of a survivor?

00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:35.899 align:center

Tomorrow morning at 7:00.

00:36:22.359 --> 00:36:26.039 align:center
(Amitabh) To save themselves,
they'll turn into a faceless mob,

00:36:26.319 --> 00:36:28.845 align:center
which doesn't have
a mind of its own--

00:36:31.520 --> 00:36:32.520 align:center
What happened?

00:36:35.646 --> 00:36:36.686 align:center
What happened, Papa?

00:36:37.680 --> 00:36:39.960 align:center
-She has to watch it.
-No, absolutely not.

00:36:42.520 --> 00:36:43.840 align:center
(Meenu) What's wrong?

00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:48.399 align:center
Why aren't you saying anything?
You're scaring me.

00:36:53.640 --> 00:36:55.597 align:center
(Amitabh) The police are
calling it an accident.

00:36:55.680 --> 00:36:56.680 align:center
But the truth is

00:36:56.680 --> 00:36:59.548 align:center
a false narrative
was built against

00:36:59.572 --> 00:37:02.439 align:center
Jaideep Modak
to incite an angry mob.

00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:05.316 align:center
And today, that very mob
has lynched him to death.

00:37:05.399 --> 00:37:06.837 align:center
What's shocking is

00:37:06.920 --> 00:37:10.920 align:center
that this mob was made up of
the parents of other students.

00:37:11.439 --> 00:37:13.039 align:center
This is terrorism.

00:37:13.480 --> 00:37:15.439 align:center
And it's clear
who the terrorist is.

00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:18.239 align:center
So what if
Sunil Chakosi is in prison.

00:37:18.920 --> 00:37:22.439 align:center
His jungle has a new king.
His son, Kashyap.

00:37:23.079 --> 00:37:25.279 align:center
Your future Baapji.

00:37:32.319 --> 00:37:34.960 align:center
We haven't found
a single girl with that thread.

00:37:36.240 --> 00:37:38.240 align:center
If we have to prove in court

00:37:38.320 --> 00:37:40.638 align:center
that Baapji
has abused other girls--

00:37:40.720 --> 00:37:42.359 align:center
(Jyoti) What more can I do?

00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:48.520 align:center
Tell the court, and the world,
what has happened to you.

00:37:51.239 --> 00:37:54.319 align:center
We can help you get justice,

00:37:54.640 --> 00:37:56.397 align:center
but it's you
who has to ask for it.

00:37:56.480 --> 00:37:59.800 align:center
Between justice and life,
I chose life a long time ago.

00:38:00.680 --> 00:38:02.557 align:center
If you don't trust me,

00:38:02.640 --> 00:38:04.840 align:center
then find Ashwin Srikumar.

00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:08.840 align:center
Ask him who he is,
what he used to do,

00:38:09.119 --> 00:38:10.660 align:center
and what he witnessed.

00:38:11.840 --> 00:38:15.560 align:center
-(call disconnects)
-(tense music)

00:38:29.640 --> 00:38:30.680 align:center
(Kashyap) What do you think?

00:38:30.720 --> 00:38:33.480 align:center
You can get away
after saying this shit on TV?

00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:36.517 align:center
Call that idiotic
blabbering anchor of yours.

00:38:36.600 --> 00:38:38.119 align:center
I want to talk to him.

00:38:38.319 --> 00:38:39.359 align:center
(Amitabh) Yes?

00:38:39.840 --> 00:38:41.156 align:center
What do you want to talk about?

00:38:41.239 --> 00:38:43.279 align:center
Assuming I'm the idiot.

00:38:44.439 --> 00:38:49.199 align:center
You twist facts, add spice
and cook up stories.

00:38:50.399 --> 00:38:52.439 align:center
Who pays for the oil?

00:38:52.999 --> 00:38:57.239 align:center
If I cook up stories,
you can tell me what the truth is.

00:38:58.359 --> 00:38:59.760 align:center
That's what I've come here for.

00:39:00.640 --> 00:39:02.119 align:center
Go. Start the channel.

00:39:03.279 --> 00:39:06.480 align:center
Get the TV running. You like talking
on TV, right? I'll talk there.

00:39:07.359 --> 00:39:08.440 align:center
(dramatic music)

00:39:08.520 --> 00:39:09.679 align:center
What are you looking at?

00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:11.239 align:center
Get the channel going.

00:39:11.880 --> 00:39:12.880 align:center
Um...

00:39:13.239 --> 00:39:15.960 align:center
Get the studio ready.
We'll go on air in 30 minutes.

00:39:16.359 --> 00:39:17.520 align:center
(Kashyap) Yes!

00:39:18.560 --> 00:39:19.680 align:center
Listen, you.

00:39:20.120 --> 00:39:22.000 align:center
Stop looking so fucking happy.

00:39:23.206 --> 00:39:24.687 align:center
Can you fucking believe it?

00:39:24.999 --> 00:39:28.760 align:center
Okay, now listen.
Please just stick to the narrative.

00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:30.039 align:center
Fuck that.

00:39:30.039 --> 00:39:31.319 align:center
Today, we feast.

00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:35.080 align:center
-What the fuck?
-What's wrong, MD?

00:39:35.279 --> 00:39:36.956 align:center
A TRP storm is about to hit us.

00:39:37.039 --> 00:39:39.797 align:center
Fuck the TRPs.
We have to toe the line.

00:39:39.880 --> 00:39:41.119 align:center
(scoffs) Fuck you.

00:39:41.960 --> 00:39:44.640 align:center
Yes, fuck you too.
Be civil out there.

00:39:50.399 --> 00:39:51.999 align:center
Stand by to roll video.

00:39:55.200 --> 00:39:57.080 align:center
Good morning.
This is Amitabh Sinha.

00:39:57.680 --> 00:39:59.399 align:center
This special segment today

00:39:59.920 --> 00:40:02.640 align:center
has been scheduled
for our very special guest.

00:40:03.359 --> 00:40:05.800 align:center
Kashyap Chakosi.

00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:11.199 align:center
Saint Kashyap Chakosi.

00:40:12.359 --> 00:40:13.600 align:center
Pardon me.

00:40:14.159 --> 00:40:18.865 align:center
Honourable Saint Kashyap Chakosi-ji.

00:40:20.640 --> 00:40:22.640 align:center
Bail has been denied three times.

00:40:23.399 --> 00:40:25.600 align:center
So, in these difficult times,

00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:30.079 align:center
how have you managed to
raise the morale of the devotees?

00:40:30.720 --> 00:40:32.640 align:center
It's the undying faith
of millions

00:40:34.000 --> 00:40:37.040 align:center
and a passion to fight
against injustice.

00:40:38.720 --> 00:40:41.800 align:center
Jaideep Modak was murdered
in broad daylight in Saburi.

00:40:43.120 --> 00:40:45.440 align:center
Do you take
responsibility for it?

00:40:47.520 --> 00:40:49.920 align:center
The responsibility for his death

00:40:51.720 --> 00:40:53.640 align:center
falls on his own actions.

00:40:54.720 --> 00:40:57.319 align:center
-We have nothing to do with it.
-(sniggers)

00:40:59.319 --> 00:41:01.800 align:center
-Baapji...
-Here we go.

00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:03.520 align:center
...is peace-loving.

00:41:05.359 --> 00:41:08.039 align:center
When he is back amongst us,

00:41:09.600 --> 00:41:11.760 align:center
all of this will be forgotten.

00:41:13.640 --> 00:41:15.039 align:center
He will also be forgotten.

00:41:16.040 --> 00:41:18.199 align:center
And he will be forgiven.

00:41:19.000 --> 00:41:20.920 align:center
But I will never forget.

00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:26.439 align:center
You've been so daring
in shitting over our heads.

00:41:27.840 --> 00:41:29.800 align:center
You must feel brave, right?

00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:33.960 align:center
Our hearts are kind.

00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:38.720 align:center
Which is why
you're able to shit on us.

00:41:38.800 --> 00:41:41.052 align:center
(Kashyap chuckles)

00:41:42.680 --> 00:41:43.960 align:center
Look at you laughing.

00:41:45.079 --> 00:41:46.159 align:center
You are such a pretty face.

00:41:46.199 --> 00:41:47.760 align:center
(Kashyap laughing)

00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:50.079 align:center
Govind, Govind, Govind...

00:41:51.319 --> 00:41:54.840 align:center
Don't forget,
that you work for me.

00:41:55.480 --> 00:41:57.400 align:center
Actually, not for you.

00:41:58.303 --> 00:42:00.076 align:center
I work for your father.

00:42:00.379 --> 00:42:02.417 align:center
So, do it then. Work.

00:42:03.159 --> 00:42:05.800 align:center
-Get bail for Father.
-Kashyap...

00:42:06.800 --> 00:42:09.720 align:center
To get Baapji out of jail,
we're all standing with you.

00:42:10.640 --> 00:42:14.239 align:center
Oh, my beautiful Chunnilal-ji!

00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:16.920 align:center
What now?

00:42:19.440 --> 00:42:22.641 align:center
Father has been in prison
for four months.

00:42:23.480 --> 00:42:24.996 align:center
What have you been doing?

00:42:25.320 --> 00:42:26.520 align:center
Huh?

00:42:26.760 --> 00:42:31.840 align:center
At least, I put that bloody
blabbering Sinha in his place.

00:42:32.960 --> 00:42:34.359 align:center
Can't you guys see?

00:42:34.720 --> 00:42:38.480 align:center
How the entire Saburi
is celebrating.

00:42:38.880 --> 00:42:40.240 align:center
People are sending
their best wishes.

00:42:40.240 --> 00:42:41.480 align:center
Can't you see all this?

00:42:41.560 --> 00:42:44.196 align:center
The fate of Baapji's case

00:42:44.279 --> 00:42:48.677 align:center
is not in the hands
of these people sending best wishes.

00:42:48.760 --> 00:42:50.076 align:center
(laughs ironically)

00:42:50.159 --> 00:42:52.397 align:center
The fate of Baapji's case
will be decided by the court.

00:42:52.480 --> 00:42:54.597 align:center
-That is Judge Jadeja.
-Right.

00:42:54.680 --> 00:42:57.680 align:center
But if your hooliganism

00:42:57.960 --> 00:43:00.316 align:center
ruins my efforts,

00:43:00.720 --> 00:43:03.160 align:center
then your father
will never come out.

00:43:03.320 --> 00:43:05.721 align:center
Please get this through your head.

00:43:07.319 --> 00:43:08.633 align:center
Hooliganism?

00:43:09.520 --> 00:43:12.772 align:center
What have I done, fucker?

00:43:13.920 --> 00:43:15.920 align:center
Yes, Govind? What have I done?

00:43:16.079 --> 00:43:17.517 align:center
For what reason?

00:43:17.600 --> 00:43:20.800 align:center
An insane woman
will come up and say

00:43:21.199 --> 00:43:23.359 align:center
that this man has raped her.

00:43:24.720 --> 00:43:27.495 align:center
Should the police
spare no thought

00:43:27.640 --> 00:43:29.600 align:center
and come and arrest you?

00:43:29.640 --> 00:43:31.156 align:center
(Amitabh) No, wait a minute.

00:43:31.239 --> 00:43:35.199 align:center
Are you certain
that the girl is lying?

00:43:36.159 --> 00:43:37.640 align:center
Through and through.

00:43:38.199 --> 00:43:42.023 align:center
(Amitabh) But on what basis?
Do you have any proof?

00:43:47.505 --> 00:43:52.843 align:center
I am the biggest proof
of his innocence.

00:43:55.080 --> 00:44:00.480 align:center
That day and at that time,
I was with my father.

00:44:01.560 --> 00:44:04.239 align:center
I am the witness

00:44:04.960 --> 00:44:10.119 align:center
to the fact that our Baapji hasn't
done anything wrong with anyone.

00:44:10.239 --> 00:44:11.877 align:center
(TV crew 1) Did he just turn into
a witness on our show?

00:44:11.960 --> 00:44:13.020 align:center
(TV crew 2) Shh!

00:44:16.960 --> 00:44:18.760 align:center
On 4th November...

00:44:19.760 --> 00:44:21.720 align:center
on the day of the alleged crime,

00:44:22.640 --> 00:44:24.359 align:center
your father was with you?

00:44:25.726 --> 00:44:26.806 align:center
Yes!

00:44:27.359 --> 00:44:29.535 align:center
I was present there.

00:44:30.800 --> 00:44:33.116 align:center
Our dear father, Baapji,

00:44:33.458 --> 00:44:35.338 align:center
who is my God,

00:44:35.598 --> 00:44:38.278 align:center
has not raped anyone.

00:44:39.465 --> 00:44:41.786 align:center
Has not raped anyone.

00:44:42.638 --> 00:44:44.598 align:center
-Not raped anyone!
-(mug shatters)

00:44:46.633 --> 00:44:48.152 align:center
What is he?

00:44:48.565 --> 00:44:49.766 align:center
What is this?

00:44:49.920 --> 00:44:51.000 align:center
(Kashyap laughs)

00:44:51.080 --> 00:44:53.200 align:center
Either he stays, or I do.

00:44:53.279 --> 00:44:54.316 align:center
Enough is enough.

00:44:54.399 --> 00:44:57.239 align:center
What the hell
have I done, motherfucker?

00:44:58.133 --> 00:44:59.612 align:center
There you go.

00:45:04.359 --> 00:45:06.079 align:center
-(Baapji) Kashyap.
-Yes, Father.

00:45:06.319 --> 00:45:08.319 align:center
Listen to me carefully.

00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:11.199 align:center
Yes...

00:45:12.079 --> 00:45:14.356 align:center
If you make another mistake
like this again,

00:45:14.439 --> 00:45:19.520 align:center
all our efforts and plans
will be ruined in an instant.

00:45:20.960 --> 00:45:23.199 align:center
This should never happen again.

00:45:23.680 --> 00:45:26.156 align:center
-You don't interfere in their work.
-All right.

00:45:26.239 --> 00:45:29.236 align:center
You just do
what you know best.

00:45:29.319 --> 00:45:30.437 align:center
Do you understand?

00:45:30.520 --> 00:45:33.236 align:center
I've understood
what I have to do now.

00:45:33.319 --> 00:45:36.319 align:center
Focus only on serving Saburi.

00:45:43.560 --> 00:45:44.560 align:center
(phone clatters sharply)

00:46:00.640 --> 00:46:03.669 align:center
(menacing music)

00:46:23.359 --> 00:46:24.439 align:center
(exhales)

00:46:25.600 --> 00:46:27.119 align:center
Your Honour...

00:46:27.279 --> 00:46:29.647 align:center
In all my years as
a senior counsel,

00:46:29.671 --> 00:46:32.039 align:center
never have I faced
such a predicament.

00:46:33.760 --> 00:46:35.236 align:center
Today...

00:46:35.319 --> 00:46:40.412 align:center
someone will get his life back,
and another will lose everything.

00:46:41.760 --> 00:46:44.720 align:center
Today, in front of the entire court,

00:46:44.960 --> 00:46:47.800 align:center
one person
will be declared a criminal,

00:46:48.439 --> 00:46:51.720 align:center
and a criminal
will be declared innocent.

00:46:52.600 --> 00:46:54.920 align:center
And I am very grateful to the woman

00:46:55.320 --> 00:46:57.680 align:center
who gave me
the permission to say this.

00:46:58.159 --> 00:46:59.999 align:center
(whispers) How did we miss this?

00:47:06.079 --> 00:47:07.119 align:center
Your Honour...

00:47:08.279 --> 00:47:10.999 align:center
What I'm going to say today
is not easy for me.

00:47:12.103 --> 00:47:13.063 align:center
In this case

00:47:13.097 --> 00:47:15.920 align:center
of State of Madhya Pradesh
vs. Mr. Sunil Chakosi,

00:47:16.439 --> 00:47:21.359 align:center
reading this woman's testimony
word for word is crucial.

00:47:22.359 --> 00:47:23.560 align:center
Go ahead.

00:47:23.880 --> 00:47:24.893 align:center
Thank you.

00:47:28.239 --> 00:47:29.239 align:center
(exhales)

00:47:31.455 --> 00:47:33.159 align:center
(Govind and Murshida)
I am an orphan.

00:47:34.646 --> 00:47:36.246 align:center
(Govind and Murshida) I have nobody.

00:47:36.760 --> 00:47:39.680 align:center
(Murshida) Starving and desperate,

00:47:40.040 --> 00:47:43.401 align:center
I fled my country three years ago.

00:47:43.800 --> 00:47:46.079 align:center
(Govind) "I had no future."

00:47:46.279 --> 00:47:49.960 align:center
"Nothing mattered to me,
except earning my daily bread."

00:47:50.680 --> 00:47:55.279 align:center
"And then, one day in Saburi,
I fell at his feet.'

00:47:56.600 --> 00:47:58.600 align:center
(Murshida) He held me

00:47:59.319 --> 00:48:00.920 align:center
and didn't let me go.

00:48:04.199 --> 00:48:09.239 align:center
And then, I found my purpose
in taking care of him.

00:48:19.720 --> 00:48:22.480 align:center
-I fell in love--
-(Bhalerao) I object!

00:48:23.319 --> 00:48:25.229 align:center
Your Honour, Murshida Suraiya

00:48:25.360 --> 00:48:27.800 align:center
and her claims are
being investigated.

00:48:28.600 --> 00:48:30.877 align:center
By reading this letter in court,
the defence is trying

00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:33.079 align:center
to emotionally manipulate the court.

00:48:33.199 --> 00:48:36.680 align:center
You think my court
can be emotionally manipulated?

00:48:36.880 --> 00:48:38.632 align:center
-Your Honour--
-(Judge Jadeja) Overruled.

00:48:38.726 --> 00:48:40.246 align:center
Please sit.

00:48:42.272 --> 00:48:46.192 align:center
Baapji turned
our dreams into reality.

00:48:48.760 --> 00:48:51.239 align:center
Ketan and I got married.

00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:56.279 align:center
Baapji, himself, got us married.

00:48:58.760 --> 00:49:02.960 align:center
The happiest day of my life...

00:49:03.520 --> 00:49:06.119 align:center
4th November, 2015.

00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:09.960 align:center
I found a family.

00:49:12.199 --> 00:49:15.399 align:center
On 4th November,
this wedding went on till 7 p.m.

00:49:16.119 --> 00:49:19.015 align:center
And that very evening,
around 6.30 p.m.,

00:49:19.360 --> 00:49:21.400 align:center
Meenu Rawat
claimed she was raped.

00:49:21.476 --> 00:49:23.752 align:center
Objection.
What an amazing coincidence.

00:49:24.079 --> 00:49:25.456 align:center
A perfect love story

00:49:25.480 --> 00:49:27.916 align:center
has so easily
become a perfect alibi.

00:49:27.999 --> 00:49:30.877 align:center
Your Honour, this wedding
took place behind closed doors.

00:49:30.960 --> 00:49:33.477 align:center
Less than 15 people were present.

00:49:33.560 --> 00:49:36.121 align:center
But between 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.,

00:49:36.145 --> 00:49:39.239 align:center
Baapji was present
at this wedding.

00:49:39.720 --> 00:49:41.484 align:center
Your Honour,
they've deliberately chosen

00:49:41.564 --> 00:49:43.236 align:center
an illegal immigrant
as their alibi.

00:49:43.320 --> 00:49:45.438 align:center
There's no way
for us to verify anything.

00:49:45.520 --> 00:49:47.440 align:center
Can you identify
the other witnesses?

00:49:47.960 --> 00:49:49.960 align:center
Yes, Your Honour.
I absolutely can.

00:49:53.960 --> 00:49:55.560 align:center
Incredible.

00:49:55.960 --> 00:49:58.119 align:center
-Magic!
-Mr. Bhalerao!

00:49:58.399 --> 00:49:59.520 align:center
Respect, please!

00:50:02.199 --> 00:50:03.359 align:center
Your Honour...

00:50:03.840 --> 00:50:07.279 align:center
Until yesterday, Sunil Chakosi
claimed that he was in seclusion.

00:50:07.880 --> 00:50:10.079 align:center
Today, he's claiming
he was at a wedding.

00:50:10.600 --> 00:50:14.600 align:center
If this alibi did exist, why wasn't
it presented in court till now?

00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:17.720 align:center
Why has Sunil Chakosi
been in prison for so long?

00:50:17.999 --> 00:50:19.399 align:center
Sacrifice.

00:50:20.880 --> 00:50:22.439 align:center
Then Baapji must be God.

00:50:23.159 --> 00:50:25.239 align:center
Many people do believe that.

00:50:25.720 --> 00:50:29.232 align:center
Baapji has been
in prison for so long

00:50:29.640 --> 00:50:31.685 align:center
only to save my marriage.

00:50:32.680 --> 00:50:33.920 align:center
I am sure

00:50:34.200 --> 00:50:38.692 align:center
that, had I not decided
to appear before the court,

00:50:40.360 --> 00:50:42.401 align:center
he would've still chosen
to remain silent.

00:50:44.079 --> 00:50:47.216 align:center
I request you with folded hands.

00:50:48.680 --> 00:50:50.319 align:center
Don't let this happen.

00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:56.269 align:center
If there is a criminal
in this court today...

00:51:00.399 --> 00:51:01.760 align:center
it's me.

00:51:03.720 --> 00:51:05.124 align:center
Not Baapji.

00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:07.919 align:center
(Murshida sobbing)

00:51:11.480 --> 00:51:14.257 align:center
(emotional music)

00:51:15.720 --> 00:51:18.030 align:center
Prosecution requests
for some time

00:51:18.054 --> 00:51:20.159 align:center
to investigate this new alibi.

00:51:20.279 --> 00:51:22.039 align:center
You can take as much time

00:51:22.102 --> 00:51:24.480 align:center
as you wish to verify the alibi.

00:51:25.119 --> 00:51:28.239 align:center
But in light of such a strong alibi,

00:51:28.480 --> 00:51:30.588 align:center
this court can no longer deny

00:51:30.680 --> 00:51:32.788 align:center
Mr. Chakosi his legal rights.

00:51:33.960 --> 00:51:37.379 align:center
This court grants bail
to Mr. Sunil Chakosi.

00:51:42.880 --> 00:51:45.905 align:center
(music rising)

00:52:10.640 --> 00:52:13.290 align:center
(music intensifies)
