(birds chirping)
You're done already? You have more time!
I've written what I had to.
Anyway, I am here only because it allows me to get out of the juvenile home.
Thank you!
(students playing)
Where were you roaming? You have to be careful.
It happened.
Hey Satya, You passed with distinction!
Your photo will be published in the newspaper!
Shall I tell the warden to cook chicken dish?
Hey, come off it!
Satya, will they really publish your photo in the newspaper?
(groans) Satya! Satya!
(muffled sound)
(news playing on TV)
-Were you here all night? -No, Madam.
This case is on every channel!
(sighs)
I congratulate everyone who was involved in this case.
(shutter clicks)
Seven months! For seven months, they worked day and night tirelessly.
-Great work! Congratulations, Sir! -Thank you, Sir.
(applause)
What did you learn from this case, Brinda?
Sir, well
Haha, take it easy! You did a good job. You did a lot!
Thank you.
Guys! Tonight, a small party at my place!
(policemen cheering)
Brinda, you're coming, right?
-Solomon. -Sir?
(chuckles)
You should've seen him that day.
Thakur was coming towards us. As I told Solomon, He froze with fear.
(cell phone rings)
He was shivering
What? Now?
Okay. Call from the mortuary.
They want you to come and collect Thakur's belongings.
It's okay, I'll go.
I'll also join.
This is the report, ma'am.
These are his belongings.
(wheel creaking)
It's Thakur's body, ma'am.
They are sending it for creamation.
-Can we see the body? -Yes, take a look.
(crickets chirping)
Brindha, this is evidence.
-Brindha, what are you doing? -Wait.
(suspenseful music)
Sarathi
Abdul died on November 13.
Look at this number. There's a call from this number.
Anand's father died on November 27.
That day too, there was a call from the same number.
What's this, Sarathi?
The dates of the murders and the incoming call dates are matching.
Who could it be?
Sarathi, when Thakur was trying to kill me,
he said 'why are you trying to stop us?'.
He has an accomplice, Sarathi.
Brinda!
See this.
'Satya'
Who's this Satya?
What's that phone number?
[9885......]
(keypad clanking)
It says 'out of reach'.
Who are you calling?
Hello! Hello!
Who is it?
Hello, Janardhan? I'm Sarathi. Remember me?
Ah, yes, tell me.
Does Thakur has any friends other than his grandfather?
I know everyone who knew Thakur.
Other than his grandfather, no one spoke to him ever.
Please try to remember.
-No, not as far as I know. -Okay.
No one there
Right. Thakur went to juvenile prison after he killed his grandmother.
Juvenile home?
(gasping)
A person called Thakur was here from 1999 to 2005.
Was there anyone called Satya with him then?
(coughs)
Satya Satya Satya
(suspenseful music)
Village: Gangavaram. Name: Satya Case no: 1794
Crime: Burnt 32 people alive as they were involved in
sacrificing his mother and sister due to some superstition.
Education: 10th class 95 percent. Intermediate: 97 per cent.
Behaviour: Would often argue with wardens in juvenile prison
that God didn't exist and that belief in God was blind faith.
When the NGO Parivarthan's people counselled him,
he would say the world would be a better place
only when it was free of those who believed in God.
All along, we thought Thakur was responsible for the lack of clues and motives.
But Satya is behind him?
Madam, just a minute.
Someone signed as Satya's guardian and took him.
There's an address too, see?
Raghuram Krishna, 5-8-548, Pragatinagar
Sarathi
What's the matter?
Raghuram Krishna
Raghu is my father!
(door creaks & open)
(crickets chirping)
How come you're home early?
Sarathi, sit. Shall I give you some coffee?
Never mind, it's late, have dinner.
Brinda, freshen up, we'll eat together.
What's up? You don't look alright.
Mom, who's Satya?
What's the connection between him and Dad? Satya?
Which Satya?
The Satya whom Dad signed for as guardian and brought out of juvenile.
(suspenseful music)
Why bring up all that now?
So, you know.
Mom, look at me, turn towards me.
Why didn't you tell me about him?
Who is he?
What's your connection to him?
Don't ask me. I don't know anything.
You know. Tell me!
Brinda, let's discuss all that later.
No, I need to know now. Tell me!
Brinda, please
(sighs)
What did Dad do?
You wouldn't hide it from me if you truly considered me your daughter.
Brinda !
I'm beginning to doubt my belief that dad was a good guy!
You wanted to know who Satya is?
Satya's your elder brother.
He's a criminal, Raghu.
So what if he's a merit student?
I won't agree to bring him into Brinda's life.
Vasu, you know how much she suffered thinking of her people.
He may be a criminal, but we have a responsibility to tell her the truth.
Our responsibility is to protect her.
She is slowly started getting attached to me.
Don't take her away from me now!
Vasu, Brinda is our daughter.
She isn't going to leave us.
I am not allowing this, that's it!
(sighs)
(rainfall)
Till you agree, I won't reveal to Brinda that she has a brother.
The day you believe Satya is a good person, I will tell Brinda the truth.
Okay?
-What do you mean? -What happened?
You're up nothing.
Come on!
(tyres screeching)
(footfalls)
Stay here.
I'll be back.
Raghu this is the Satya you enquired about.
Hello Satya, come, sit.
Move!
Come with me.
Sit down.
What's this about?
I've heard about you, everyone here says you're very intelligent.
Satya, if you are interested, I will fund your education.
-Is this why you're here? -Yes.
I am not interested.
I can take you out of here.
It would be better to study outside than spend time locked up here, wouldn't it?
Sir, who are you?
why are you here? Talking about helping me out...
I'm telling you I don't want to.
There are so many others who have no one.
Why don't you help them?
Why have you come here?
They are all free, but you're here, that's why I've come.
If they study, the world outside will improve,
but if you study, this environment will get better.
What's in it for you?
Don't be so selfless, Sir.
I'm studying because I have nothing else to do here, not to do good deeds like you.
That day, even if there had been one educated person
Maybe he would have told the villagers what they are doing is barbaric.
May be he would have prevented you from killing so many people.
An educated person can recognize a mistake for what it is.
You're well-informed!
So, listen to me.
This world will never change.
You know why?
There is God in this world, and blockheads who believe in him.
Many of them are educated. Has the change you hope for come about?
Get going, Sir
Satya, I understand your anger.
But I don't get why you don't want to leave from here.
Think about it. I'll be back.
(metal creaking)
Why didn't you leave, Satya?
You should get out of this place.
Thakur!
Satya, I knew nothing of the outside world except my house,
I always used to wonder what it was like.
But they locked me up in here.
There's no one to take me away from here.
Today, someone came for you.
You're intelligent.
You can leave this behind and start afresh.
If not for yourself, go for my sake.
Live the life I cannot live, Satya!
Thakur, I won't go anywhere without you.
Go, Satya!
Just as someone came for you, you come for me again.
(breathing heavily)
Satya!
What's this?
You.
This is Chinni's.
I have nothing except this to remember her by.
Where to now?
HYDERABAD.
Your admission is done.
Bachelors in Psychology for the next 4 years.
Let's go see your room.
Not that, Dad. U L A C C E E A
-What is it? -Satya. New admission.
Room no 202. Second floor.
Oh, a new admission! What's up, pal? You brought your dad also?
This is your new life now. Forget all that and start life afresh.
(church bell ringing)
(vehicle honking)
(birds fluttering)
-Satya, there's a parcel for you. -Did you get something to eat?
(crickets chirping)
(line ringing)
Why are you doing all this for me? I don't like it at all!
Satya, just listen to me Satya!
(keypad click)
Son, put this on your forehead, it'll bring you prosperity.
(line ringing)
(cell phone buzzes)
Not answering, is he?
He's a criminal, Raghu.
He won't change however much you try.
-Satya how are you? -I'm fine.
-How are you? -I'm good.
Thakur, don't worry. No one will harm you.
I'll come for you.
Okay.
(breathing heavily) Nothing will happen to you, dear.
-Please move. -I'm there for you, dear.
Sir, my child, Sir, please save her, Sir
Stay here, we'll look after her.
-Sir, please save her Sir. -Don't worry, nothing will happen to her.
(crying)
Ayyo, ayyo what do I do?
As usual, she went to the temple before going to school, brother.
As she was praying, her frock got stained with blood.
(yelling) That scoundrel of a priest beat her mercilessly saying
the temple had become impure, ignoring the fact that she's a child.
Pay Rs 10,000 at the cash counter and bring the receipt.
Madam, I don't have that much money with me.
Madam, I can't pay that much.
Take out the money.
It's just 3,000.
Stay here, I'll be back.
Where are you going?
Satya, I don't know how to thank you
First go and see to your daughter.
(gasping)
Madam, I've paid the money.
Sorry, Sir, your daughter is no more.
Oh God! What sort of a God are you!
You claimed my daughter's life. Leave me.
(sombre music)
(car door shuts)
Satya, wait!
Satya!
(crickets chirping)
What's the matter, Satya?
-Wait! Satya! -What? Why are you here?
I can't stay here. Send me back to juvenile.
You're wasting money on me.
What happened, but, Satya?
A small child they beat her to death in the temple.
Wherever I go, I encounter people who have troubles similar to mine,
who have lost their loved ones like me.
In such an evil world, what do I achieve with education?
I don't like being here.
There are only a few people like this in jail, but the world outside is full of them.
Send me back to juvenile!
Satya! Satya, it's up to us to decide whether
we want to see good or evil in this world.
I didn't bring you here for you to see your past in everything
I wanted you to find yourself.
I'll be here till you come to us.
(thunder rumbling)
(indistinct chatter)
(footfalls)
(crickets chirping)
Why're you doing all this for me?
What am I to you?
Even when I was orphaned and in jail, I wasn't scared.
But your affection scares me.
(sobs) Why have you come in search of me?
Why are you being so paternal?
Someone like me who cannot question this world,
do you know how much hatred he harbours for it?
Tell me your love is a lie.
How can this world have people like you?
(crying)
Satya, there can be many questions that you can't ask this world right now.
But never assume that you cannot do it some day.
It's people like that who turn towards evil.
It's not the anger, hatred, deceit we carry that we have to battle.
We have to ensure that the good in us isn't destroyed.
There may be any amount of evil in the world before us,
but before we leave it, we have to do some good. It's our duty.
(vehicle approaching)
(applause)
Chutki, careful!
What's all the excitement about?
Satya has finished his graduation.
I'm off to bring him home.
I'm planning to introduce him to Brinda.
(sighs)
Vasu, come, sit, sit.
You're still afraid, Vasu?
Nothing you fear will happen.
I'm not bringing him home to send Brinda away with him.
I'm bringing him so that he can live with us as our son.
Nothing will go wrong, Vasu.
That girl will wait for you at the bus stop outside her village.
You have to take her and drop her at her sister's place in Durgapur.
Okay. I'll pick her up and call you.
You call her once you get to Durgapur.
-Okay -Okay. Bye.
Sir, you seem to be off in a hurry. Can I come with you?
(vehicle honking)
That girl's mother was afraid her family would kill her and the child she's carrying,
she reached out to us.
Where's the guy who fell in love with her?
He impregnated her and fled way.
He's from the same village, same religion,
but her mother hid the news as she's afraid for her daughter's life,
because a pre-marital affair and pregnancy is considered 'haram'.
The daughter is 4 months pregnant.
(crickets chirping)
My daughter! My daughter!
Please, sirs, please don't kill my daughter.
Please spare my daughter.
(crying)
We don't want any religion, we don't want any religion.
If you let us go, we'll leave, we'll leave.
Please spare her in the name of god.
Please let us go, sir.
Jaleel! Jaleel, she's your sister, rescue your sister!
I beg you!
Don't worry. She'll come.
(vehicle approaching)
(sighs)
Sir, I'm worried. Shall I go check?
(kicks) Shameless!
Zilan!
(crying in pain)
It's because of people like this that our God is angry with us.
Kareem, kill them!
Jaleel, please don't...
Hey!
(gasping)
(weapon clatter)
(yelling) Hey, what are you doing? Are you going to kill her?
Bhai! I think this lady called them to rescue her.
Kill them!
Hey! Hey, hey hey!
Wait, Satya, wait! Satya, wait, wait!
Listen to me, Satya.
Drop the knife, drop it!
Drop it.
Drop the knife, Satya!
Sir, we have no bad intentions, Sir.
We came to protect that girl.
How can you do this in the name of religion, Sir?
This isn't God who told you to do this, Sir.
Please let the girl go, Sir.
(screams)
Hey, hey!
(sombre music)
Sir!
(crying)
(sorrowful music)
Dad, wake up dad! Dad!
Madam, another person was found with injuries along with your husband, madam.
His name is Satya.
Do you know anything about him, Madam?
(sobbing)
It was your dad's last wish that you know about your brother.
I hid the truth not to keep you away from Satya
but because you'd move away from me.
Brinda!
(sorrowful music)
Brinda!
(crying)
It's okay! It's okay!
Calm down.
Satya, with Thakur gone, the police will close the case.
No one has doubted us till now.
We should lie low for a while.
Srinath, don't you understand? They chased Thakur and killed him.
They'll come after us too one day.
That shouldn't happen.
Even if we die, our war should not end.
But
Go, mobilise all our people.
The world thinks Thakur is behind all this.
Time to tell them that we are behind Thakur.
