I've reached.
- 'How long has it been?'
I have been waiting since
ten minutes.
When will you come?
'I'll be there in five minutes.'
'There's a chapter in my life'
'nobody is aware about.'
'And this will remain
a secret as long as I am alive.'
I want it
to remain a secret forever
even after my death.
This is
what I had thought.
But this was
never going to happen.
At times, what we get
to hear is just an opinion
not the truth.
At times,
what we see is the picture
made by
someone's thoughts.
It is not necessary
for that to be the truth.
Sir, I was passing by Dumna..
A-And I spotted the dead
body of a woman in the bushes.
{\an5}Sir, there is no mark
on the victim's body
{\an5}which would help us
identify her.
{\an5}And we didn't
even find her phone.
{\an5}Dubey!
Did you find something?
{\an5}Nothing yet, sir.
{\an5}Sir, judging by her clothes
{\an5}it seems that she
hails from a well-to-do family.
And I feel that she
has been sexually assaulted.
It seems,
she was attacked using a knife.
Her wound suggests that she
was not attacked too long ago.
It has barely been eight hours
that she has been murdered.
You mean to say, she
was murdered between 11-12 p.m.
yesterday, on the
26th of October.. - Right.
Her throat was slit
using a knife.
Rape?
- Gang rape.
Did you find samples
of semen? - No.
It is possible that all
the rapists used condoms.
Any birth mark or any other mark
which can help
us identify the victim?
No, Inspector.
But there is something..
High levels of alcohol
have been found in her blood.
Rape and alcohol..
She may have been made to drink
forcibly. - Quite possible.
Is there any sign of struggle?
- Negligible.
Maybe, she couldn't struggle
much as she was intoxicated.
Doctor, how old was she?
Between 35 to 38 years.
'Height, 5 feet 4 inches.
Age, between 35 to 38 years.'
'Complexion, wheatish.'
'A corpse was found in Dumna,
near Jabalpur.'
'The corpse of a
woman has been recovered'
'from Dumna, Jabalpur.'
'Her complexion is wheatish.'
'And her age is between
35 to 38 years.'
'Height 5 feet 4 inches.'
'If anyone has any
information about this woman'
'contact Rajgir police
station, Jabalpur, immediately.'
The murder was committed on
the night, day before yesterday
between 11 to 12 p.m.
A missing complaint
may have been lodged.
Extract all missing complaints
lodged in the last two days.
I'm sending you the
fingerprints of the victim.
Match them
with the Aadhaar data.
We have no other
means to identify her
and no matching
missing complaint either.
Priyanka.. Priyanka!
What happened?
Priyanka, look at this.!
Sister Meenakshi!
What has happened
to Sister Meenakshi?
I don't know. Somebody
just forwarded it to me.
It says, her corpse has
been recovered from near Dumna.
But Sister Sunita
had stayed back in Danapur
after Diwali,
with Meenakshi, right?
Call Sister Sunita up.
Hello, Kapil.. Tell me.
Sister-in-law.. Where
is Sister-in-law Meenakshi?
She had gone out
to attend to some work.
She'd left on the 26th.
- Where was she supposed to go?
Did you talk to her?
- No..
I mean,
I tried calling her many times.
But her number is switched
off since last two days.
I'm forwarding you a photo.
Just take a look.
Rajiv.. S-She is
Sister Meenakshi for sure.
Yes. It is her.
But how did this happen
and why?
Sir, the victim's name
is Meenakshi Gupta.
She is from Danapur.
Meenakshi Gupta's three sisters
and their husbands
are coming here.
By the way, sir..
Meenakshi Gupta was
a reputed woman in Danapur.
Why did she
come to Jabalpur?
They say they
have no idea about that.
We got Meenakshi Gupta's
mobile number from them
and it is switched off.
'Vikas Khandelwal.'
'Shalini Khandelwal.'
'Sunita Mahajan.'
'Priyanka Jaiswal.'
'Rajiv Mahajan.'
'Kapil Jaiswal.'
'Dinkar Patel.'
What are you
in such a hurry, Ashish?
Why were you
pressing it so aggressively?
A disaster has happened.
Ms. Meenakshi has been killed!
What are you saying?
- Look at this.
I received
a forwarded message.
'Toilet. Courtesy,
Meenakshi Gupta. 2016.'
'Drinking water. Courtesy,
Meenakshi Gupta. 2015.'
'Reading room. Courtesy,
Meenakshi Gupta. 2014.'
'Courtesy, Ms. Meenakshi Gupta.
2015.'
'Courtesy, Ms. Meenakshi Gupta.
2015.'
'For any enquiry regarding
Aadhaar card, PAN card'
'ration card, passport,
driving license'
'- contact, Meenakshi Gupta.
- 444567891.' - Dixit.
Meenakshi Gupta was
a reputed woman in Danapur.
She was a social
worker too.
But surprisingly
Ms. Meenakshi
has not returned home
for three days now.
But her family members
didn't file a missing complaint.
Laxman, we have asked for the
call records of Meenakshi Gupta.
Till then, find out
with whom Meenakshi Gupta
had come to
Jabalpur from Danapur.
Sister Meenakshi!
How did this happen, ma'am?
Who did this and why?
H-How did Meenakshi
come to Jabalpur?
It's us who have
a lot of questions to ask you.
How did Meenakshi Gupta
reach Jabalpur
and where was
she supposed to go?
You are going
to answer these questions.
It's been two days
since we found her corpse.
However, none of you lodged
a missing complaint against her
in the police station
in Danapur!
We all were
together in Danapur
till Diwali.
We headed for our home on 22nd
October, in the afternoon.
Sir, we too, left from there
on the 22nd.
Only Rajeev and Sunita
stayed back with Meenakshi.
Could you all
introduce yourselves?
Sir, I am Vikas Khandelwal.
I am a resident of Kishangarh.
It's near Danapur.
I run a restaurant.
I am Shalini's husband.
I am Shalini. I am the eldest
of all the four sisters.
Meenakshi was born after me.
I am Sunita.
I was born after Meenakshi.
He is my husband,
Rajeev Mahajan.
We reside in Bhedaghat, sir.
Sir, my name is Kapil Jaiswal
and she is my wife
Priyanka Jaiswal.
She is the youngest.
We stay in Damoh.
Where is Meenakshi's husband?
Meenakshi didn't marry.
- Okay.
Since when was she
staying in Danapur?
We four were born and brought up
in Danapur.
The house where
Meenakshi used to stay
is our maternal house.
What about your parents?
They died long back.
Meenakshi raised me and Priyanka
as her daughters.
We all celebrate every festival
in Danapur.
On the 26th, when she left home,
did Meenakshi tell you
where was she headed
and to meet whom?
No, she didn't say anything.
After having her evening tea
she left home at around
4:45 p.m.
Sunita
I am going out
for a while.
Okay, Sister.
Sir, Meenakshi
had to go out almost everyday
for some
work related purpose.
Many people used to visit her,
she used to visit them as well.
Sir, you must have
got to know of it already.
Meenakshi was a social worker.
Sir, she also owns a dhaba
on the Danapur highway.
It does good business.
Meenakshi built everything
on her own.
Sunita, we now know that
Meenakshi didn't inform you
whom she was going to meet.
However, she might have told you
when she will return.
Before or after dinner time..
No, Sister didn't say anything.
When she didn't return
on 26th, 27th, 28th
and today is 29th,
weren't you worried?
You didn't lodge
any missing complaint!
That's not true, sir.
Sunita tried calling
on her number many times.
However, her phone
was switched off.
Rajeev, Meenakshi didn't
come home last night.
Moreover,
her phone is switched off.
She must have got busy
with some work.
Maybe,
her phone battery died.
Sir, I tried calling her
yesterday and today as well.
However, her phone
was switched off.
Your sister's phone
was switched off for three days!
Even then you didn't
get suspicious?
We are feeling weird
just by hearing about it.
Ms. Sunita, why would a woman
not carry a bag along with her
when she knew that she
had to stay overnight somewhere.
You are the one to say that
Meenakshi's body was found
in the same clothes
she wore when she left!
Ma'am, the thing is, Meenakshi
was the master of her own mind.
She has worked
for the betterment of Danapur.
Everyone in Danapur knows her.
Whatever I am going to say
might upset you.
Before she was murdered
Meenakshi Gupta was gang raped.
During the time
of rape and murder
her blood had
excess levels of alcohol.
However, it's difficult to say
whether she was forced
to consume alcohol or she
consumed it willingly.
She must have been
forced to consume it, sir.
Forget about alcohol, Meenakshi
never even ate Paans!
Who committed this
brutal and heinous crime, sir?
We have more number
of questions to ask you
than you have for us.
If only you all
answer us truthfully
we will be able to find out who
committed this crime and why.
Madhuri, on 26th October,
Meenakshi Gupta's phone
got switched off in Jabalpur.
Look, the last call which
she received on her number
was at 05:03 p.m.
Hello!
- Which place is this?
You have dialed the number
of a PCO in Danapur.
Who is this speaking?
I am calling from
the Jabalpur Police station.
Yes, sir, tell me.
My name is Kamal Chaurasia.
I own a grocery shop.
Do you know Meenakshi Gupta?
Who doesn't know her
in Danapur, sir?
Everyone here is upset
to hear this unfortunate news.
On 26th October, 05:03 p.m.,
Meenakshi received a call
from your PCO.
Who had made that call?
On 26th October, 05:03 p.m.!
Kamal Chaurasia, the last call
to Meenakshi was made from here.
Sir,
the phone is kept over there.
People come here, insert coins
and make calls.
I don't pay much attention.
Mr. Chaurasia, it cannot be that
people flock here
in large numbers
to make calls!
Most have mobiles nowadays!
Moreover, Danapur
isn't a big village.
Sire, Ms. Meenakshi
meant a lot to us.
I am really feeling bad.
I am not able to remember
who had come here
to make the call that day.
But please don't
spare that person.
Don't spare anyone.
Shalini, Sunita and Priyanka
the three sisters.. And their
husbands, Vikas,
Rajiv and Kapil.
Extract all
their phone records.
Find out where they were
on the 26th and the day after.
Meenakshi has been
missing since the 26th
and nobody is worried! - Sir,
they were worried but only
about getting caught.
That's why she was
brought all the way to Jabalpur
and killed, away from Danapur.
And she must have come to
Jabalpur to meet
an acquaintance.
Sir, we are already
questioning all those
who feature in her call records.
Sir, Meenakshi Gupta had
passed by the Danapur market
on the 26th,
at around 4:45 p.m.
She was alone.
- Greetings, ma'am. - Greetings.
Ms. Meenakshi, greetings.
Greetings, Mr. Dinesh.
Greetings on Diwali.
- Same to you.
But no one
noticed where she went.
Is this local leader, Dinkar
Patel, involved in any manner?
These politicians
are just so masterful.
I haven't heard anything
suspicious about him yet
but still, I have deployed
three men to keep an eye on him.
Meenakshi Gupta was a
social worker.
So she must have
had tiffs with people.
We have got to know
about two such matters.
One is about Nakul Pal.
Nakul Pal's
right hand is injured.
He has suffered
a deep wound.
He'd got his wound bandaged
on 27th morning at
the civil hospital.
Sir, it maybe that
he got his hand injured
when he was trying
to slit Meenakshi's throat.
What was the tiff that Nakul
and Meenakshi
had all about?
Sir, Nakul is very arrogant.
He is Meenakshi's neighbour.
Nakul!
Take your bike away from here!
This road is
meant for the public.
This is not
your private property.
So, please understand this..
The city of Danapur
is not your private property
that you can
lecture anyone at any time.
And how is my
bike obstructing you?
This is not right.
- I will pay for my mistake.
Who are you to punish me?
Ms. Meenakshi, you can behave
in this manner
with someone else.
Don't try this on me.
I have just punctured
the tyres today.
I will remove the tyres
the next time.
I will dismantle your bike
and give it to the
rag picker for free.
Do you think I will not
take a step?
Don't brag about
your manhood by arguing with me.
Mend your ways
and do something good.
So you are
taunting me now?
I am not taunting you!
I am giving you an advice.
I am elder to you and
am teaching you something good.
It will be good
for you if you listen to me.
I have already suffered a loss,
Ms. Meenakshi.
I had a very important
meeting today and
now, I won't be able to
reach on time because of you.
That's all right.
I will teach you a lesson.
So, this was all about Nakul's
case, Meenakshi's neighbour.
What about the other case?
The second one
is about Mohanlal Yadav.
The Manager at
Meenakshi's dhaba.
Ms. Meenakshi, I have never
accepted payments from
the customers without
making a bill.
Don't you trust me even
after working for five years?
I asked Lucky to record this
for two days and
this clearly
shows that you accepted payments
from table number 14,
without making the bill.
And you kept
that money with you.
And six to seven of them
were tourists and taxi drivers.
I can get their details.
Shall I get them here?
I need to get
my sister married.
You need to get
your sister married.
Mother's ailment, father's
loan and daughter's studies..
You could have thought
of a better reason.
Forgive me, ma'am.
I made a mistake.
Please don't fire me.
Don't worry.
I won't oust you.
This shows that you
stole Rs. 1000 in just two days!
So, I can only
imagine the amount
you have stolen in five years!
Until you repay that money,
you will work here
without a payment.
How will I work without
a payment?
What will I send home?
You can fire me.
I will find another job.
If I fire you, I can
assure you that no one
will hire you
in entire Danapur.
If you call the police,
they won't spare you too.
Come on, leave!
Mohanlal Yadav's theft was
caught six months back.
He was very angry.
When Meenakshi Gupta
fired him, three months ago,
he didn't go there
to bid her goodbye.
Let's get Nakul Pal
and Mohanlal Yadav here.
Let's make them
spill the beans.
Lakshman, we ought to talk
to Dinkar Patel once.
It's possible that we might
get to know
another story from him.
Was it a knife, chopper or
something else?
None of the three.
This means you forced Meenakshi
to drink the alcohol
broke the bottle and
slashed her neck
using the glass
of the bottle!
Wasn't this your way of
teaching her a lesson?
If I had to teach her a lesson,
I would have, at the most
smeared black ink on
the toiler she has built.
Or, I would have broken
the windows of her house.
I can never
rape or murder someone.
Your hand was bandaged after
the day the crime was committed
your face was not.
If you
don't speak the truth
I will beat
you black and blue.
I have not gone out of Danapur
from the 26th till date.
Then,
how could I reach Jabalpur?
And Ms. Meenakshi used
to hate me!
Why will she travel with me
from here to there?
Who told you that Meenakshi
went out of Danapur
with someone?
Kamal Chaurasia is
questioning everyone
as to who called Ms. Meenakshi
from his shop on the 26th.
The person who called her
might have gone there.
That was you, Nakul.
She had just punctured
my bike tyres and nothing else.
So, why would I kill her?
Your hand is bandaged.
What will you say about it?
Ms. Meenakshi slapped you
and insulted too.
And you
suffered a heavy loss too.
Sir, Ms. Meenakshi
has suffered a loss.
I stole the money.
Please forgive me.
You were the one who had
an issue with her.
You were baying for her blood!
How many people were
involved in raping her?
Who slashed her throat?
Did you do it?
No, sir.
Sir, she was a
courageous woman.
She would dominate me. I could
never look into her eyes.
So, I could never have
raised my hand against her.
Sir, Shalini, Sunita and
Priyanka's call records
are absolutely clean.
Their husband's call records
are clean as well.
Did you confirm the last
location of these three
couples on the 26th?
Yes, sir. Kapil
and Priyanka were in Damoh.
Vikas and Shalini were
in Bhedaghat.
Sunita and Rajeev were in
Danapur, at Meenakshi's house.
That's what the phone
location report says.
Sunita, Meenakshi didn't
return for three days.
Why didn't you inform
anyone about the same?
I never thought such a
thing could happen.
I thought that if I would
say anything, it would
seem like a complaint.
Didn't you and Rajeev
get a doubt?
Didn't
you doubt a little? - We didn't.
That's why you are
doubting us, right?
You are interrogating me.
Stop with your drama, Sunita.
I am asking you since
Rajeev and you were here.
We two were the
only ones here, Sister!
Priyanka and you had left for
your houses after Diwali.
It was me who was
worried about Meenakshi.
She would always feel lonely.
I stayed back with her.
And now,
you are blaming us?
Come, Priyanka.
Do you want to ask me
any further questions?
I was wondering
why Sister Meenakshi
didn't carry
clothes with her or inform us.
Even her phone was unreachable
for three days.
How could you
not grow suspicious?
Why should I have?
Tell me why.
I have got her killed, right?
- Listen to me, Sunita.
But why did I do that?
And that too,
after getting her raped?
I don't know that.
Do this, sit here,
both of you, think of the reason
call the cops and ask
them to sentence me to death.
Sunita..
- Happy now? Tell me!
Do you want to say something,
Brother-in-law Vikas?
No!
Kapil?
Do you want to ask something?
But I want to tell
you something!
Listen, Meenakshi did not
return home for three days
and this sounds weird.
But we didn't think in our
wildest dreams that something
bad could have happened to her!
Do you understand?
Why are you guys
looking at me like that?
As if I know something.
As if I've done something!
Get inside!
Why are you asking me
about something that's useless?
Sir, I'm innocent,
I didn't do anything.
You got hurt
without doing anything?
This injury has nothing
to do with that incident.
Then which incident
is this related to?
Tell me!
I agree that Nakul is arrogant.
He is a bit aggressive.
But he would not do such
a despicable thing, sir!
And we were not in town
on that night, sir!
All three were out of Danapur?
Nakul and both of you?
No, I and Nakul's mother
had gone out of town.
Nakul was at home.
So, what happened
on the night of 26th
for which Nakul had to go
to the hospital on 27th?
He's not ready
to tell us anything.
Did he tell you something?
Listen, call Mr. Dixit! I'm
ready to tell him everything.
Ms. Meenakshi's murder
is a very shameful
and grievous incident and also
what happened before her murder.
But her murder has no connection
with politics, Inspector.
You seem to be sure about it.
Isn't it true that Ms. Meenakshi
used to take part in the
programs of your party?
She would take part
enthusiastically!
She had worked hard
during my election too!
Ms. Meenakshi was a
role model for the party!
But still, you say
that politics has nothing
to do with her murder.
There is a difference between
a political worker
and a politician.
A political worker
does only the work.
A politician
does the politics.
If anyone kills me, you can
surely suspect the opposition.
But Ms. Meenakshi
was a social worker!
She would help everyone.
If it's not political
enmity then what could it be?
She has three sisters.
Did you speak to them?
Yes, we did.
But all three of them are
unaware about the person
who called Meenakshi from
a PCO in Danapur that night
or who she went
to Jabalpur with
and who she
went there to meet.
Can you tell us
something regarding this?
I'd suggest that you investigate
her personal relationships.
I think, this is
something personal!
Like what?
I broke the beer bottle
in a fit of anger!
After making Meenakshi
drink it forcefully?
No, Ms. Meenakshi has no
connection at all!
Neither with me
nor with the bottle!
Actually, I was..
I was not alone on that night.
So, how many people were there?
There was a woman.
I mean, a girl, my girlfriend.
Mom and dad
were not at home. So..
Nakul, it's better
that we don't meet at all
instead of meeting discreetly!
We should break up!
Hey, why are you saying that,
Riya?
Will the truth change
if I don't say this?
Truth? What truth?
The truth that our
relationship has no future!
You cannot tell your family
that you're in love
with a girl from another caste.
And even I cannot
tell my family about you.
We just meet on the sly..
So?
Don't you like it?
I find it cheap!
I find it despicable!
As if I'm a..
Why did you do that, Nakul?
I'm sorry, I didn't mean that!
What did you just do?
Don't say a word, Riya.
I know that I behave
badly with you!
Even I want to marry you!
But I don't know why, we have
this caste system between us!
Her family was
unaware of our affair.
If they had come to know, sir
then they would've
killed us both!
First, they would've killed
her and then me!
That's why, I lost my mind
thinking about all this!
And I broke the bottle
because of which I got injured
and I went to the hospital
the next day to get it dressed!
What's Riya's full name?
Riya Mishra.
Give me her number.
Sir, please don't do this.
Sir, if you want,
you can beat me!
But sir, please don't involve
Riya in this case!
Sir, my parents don't know
that Riya had come
to our house that night.
And even Riya's
parents don't know of it.
Sir, this step of yours
can spell doom for us.
Nakul, give me the number!
I'm surprised!
How did none of her sisters
or any of her family members
mention about this yet?
Meenakshi Gupta's uncle,
Arvind Gupta?
Yes, he lives in Jabalpur.
Perhaps, Ms. Meenakshi must've
gone to meet him!
But why would he call
from a PCO in Danapur?
Perhaps, he had sent
someone to pick her up.
We'd send some of our
people to Ms. Meenakshi's
funeral, to see who all
have attended it.
Arvind Gupta's
name wasn't there, right?
It was not, sir!
Perhaps, he didn't turn up.
Even Arvind Gupta's son,
Rahul, had not come.
I was there.
Even I noticed this.
Oh, God!
I can't believe it!
Uncle did this!
You mean, Uncle Arvind?
Listen, we're not saying
that he's behind it.
We just want to know
why you didn't tell us
about this uncle of yours.
Because we never thought of it!
We can't imagine
even in our dreams
that Uncle Arvind could
do something like this!
Yes, sir.
Sister Meenakshi and uncle
had a strong enmity!
But uncle cannot
do such a thing!
Sister-in-law Shalini
did it
happen because of that insult?
Oh, God!
Uncle took revenge from her
in such a despicable manner!
We want to know all about it!
Tell us everything.
Actually, the thing is, sir
that after marrying off
Priyanka and me
sister Meenakshi spent all her
money on building this house.
Uncle had always claimed that he
too had a share in this house!
But at that time,
the house was quite small, sir.
Meenakshi built new
rooms with her money.
She bought the plot
next to ours.
Then uncle started asking
for a share in this too!
Hold on, Uncle.
Wait.
My father had got this mansion
as a gift from my grandpa
your father.
And it belongs to us,
we all four sisters.
And Meenakshi stays in it.
Because she has
the maximum rights over it.
I do have 40
per cent share in it.
It is written in this will.
You have done B.A.,
haven't you?
Read this.
It is written in
simple English. Read it.
You couldn't pass
your class 12 exams, right?
That's why
you didn't notice it.
It is written in the
fourth page of this will
that too
in simple English
that Uncle, your father,
will get his 40 per cent share
when this
mansion will be sold off.
It should've
been sold long before.
Listen, Sister Meenakshi
you are unmarried.
That's your personal matter.
But we can't keep waiting
for you to get married
for our entire life, right?
Property prices have
already started falling.
Hold on, Rahul.
It doesn't concern you
whether the property prices
rise or fall?
You will get your share when
we sell this mansion.
We don't have any intention
to sell this mansion.
And yes
even if we sell it,
you'll get the 40 per cent
of this
ancestral property
only as much as
is mentioned in the will.
You will not get a
share from Meenakshi's property.
The land adjacent
to this building
is a part of the
ancestral property.
Even we have 40
per cent share in it.
Not even on an inch of it,
Uncle.
Not even on an inch.
So, stop kidding.
I have purchased that land
with my hard earned money.
That is not a part of
your ancestral property.
Hence, stop coming
here and creating a scene
time and again.
This mansion won't be
sold as long as I am alive.
And Rahul, you.
If you again send some
client here for inspection
I'll file a complaint with
the police, straight away!
You stay here alone.
How much space does a
single person need to live?
Rahul
you can't decide that.
And nor can you question
her rudely, like this.
Stay within your limits.
Brother-in-law,
you stay in your limits.
Don't interfere.
We are family. We will
decide it amongst ourselves.
You don't
poke your nose in it.
No, Uncle.
Don't have any false notions
that Meenakshi is alone.
We all are there
to support her.
Uncle, I can't expect
anything great from Rahul.
Because, you yourself have
been treating us badly
all these years.
If you haven't come to
your senses with this slap
then let me know.
I will make the
cops bash you
and you'll come
to your senses.
Meenakshi, for the slap you
gave me here, in a closed room
I'll exact revenge for it
that too publicly.
Dad, let's go from here.
Wait and watch.
Yes,
Rahul had threatened us.
But no one takes such
threats seriously.
If Rahul has done this, then
that's very mean of him!
Very mean!
Sir, these people had kept us
in the dark about their uncle
Arvind Gupta and his son,
Rahul Gupta. But why?
They said that they
had forgotten about it.
Something is fishy.
They are hiding
something important from us.
Sir, Rahul's threat
is not very different
from the threat
Nakul Pal had given.
Sir, did you speak to Riya,
Nakul's girlfriend?
Yes, Madhuri.
Riya has confessed
that she was with
Nakul at his home
the other night.
Nakul's hand got cut
because he broke a bottle.
Neither the three sisters
nor their husbands
told us that the motivation for
the crime can have links with
Nakul, Meenakshi's neighbour,
the Manager
of the dhaba, Mohanlal
her uncle and his son, Rahul
who live in Jabalpur.
We could learn of
these angles from outsiders.
Why is that so?
Sanjana,
I've packed your lunch.
Come on.
- Thank you, Mom. Bye.
Bye.
What are you doing,
Malti?
Are you free?
Just now, I'm
winding up the kitchen work.
You tell me.
What are you doing?
Did you have your food?
I am not feeling like it.
Will you come to
see me for a while?
I am feeling like
talking to you.
Give me 15 minutes.
I need to make some
preparations for cooking
for tomorrow.
Okay.
But come soon,
please.
'If you are feeling so lonely,
then why don't you get married?'
'Who are you
waiting for now?'
'Shall I tell you?
- What is this?'
'Why are you
hiding it from me?'
It is not a secret.
Our relationship with
Meenakshi was not cordial.
Why should we
pretend to mourn?
Sir, whether we attend
someone's funeral or not
is our personal matter,
isn't it?
You had threatened to slap
her publicly, hadn't you?
Sir,
there is a huge difference
between slapping someone
publicly in the market
and committing a gang
rape and murder.
And that too,
with my cousin!
Can't you make that out?
I can't.
You make me understand
the difference.
We are of the same family.
I agree, there is an issue
regarding ancestral property.
All those four sisters think
that the ancestral property
belongs to their dad.
They are about to sue me.
We were done trying to
resolve it through dialogue.
Nothing was left
for us to discuss.
So, you tell me, sir.
To discuss what would we
call Meenakshi so far
to Jabalpur?
Give it a thought.
For a minute, let's consider
that your disgusting allegations
are true.
Would a smart woman
like Meenakshi
come to meet us,
all the way to Jabalpur?
And that too, all alone.
Never, sir.
Even if you think that
we would've brought her
till here,
against her wishes.
Wouldn't she create a
furore in that case?
Sir, a serious crime
has taken place.
Solve it.
Don't try to link our family
feud to this case unnecessarily.
It has got nothing
to do with it.
You will be wasting your time.
And talking about
we not attending the funeral.
We didn't want to go
there and create a scene.
And sir, if you still
feel that we have committed
this terrible crime,
even after hearing all this
then prove it.
Prove that Meenakshi had
come to Jabalpur to meet us.
Prove that we have
committed this crime.
Prove it.
We have got the detailed
post mortem report.
As I have been told,
Meenakshi was unmarried.
That's why,
I did some detailed analysis.
Do you have any detail which
could be of some help to us?
Yes, I do.
Listen, Inspector
she has been raped.
There are marks and
scratches on her body
which point towards forced sex.
Other than that, the victim
was a sexually active woman
since a long time.
Means, the victim had
a physical relationship
with someone since long.
Absolutely.
You had mentioned that
someone had called the victim
in the evening
from a pay phone.
Perhaps, he could be the person.
Sir,
Arvind Gupta and Rahul Gupta
never had any telephonic
communication with Meenakshi.
On the night
of 26th October
both father and son were
at their home in Jabalpur.
We have come to
know of one more thing
from the detailed
post mortem report.
Meenakshi Gupta was sexually
active since a long time.
Now,
we'll have to find her lover.
Sir, the enmity within the
family which we've come to know
about, which,
of course, is true
might not be connected
to this crime.
Perhaps, there might be
some other angle to it.
It might be some affair,
some lover
and the relationship between
Meenakshi and her lover
going sour
might've led to this crime.
But why gang rape?
Is it that a contract
killer was hired
who had come to kill her
but ended up raping her
and then killing her?
But sir,
as per our informers
no such news is making rounds
among the contract killers.
The person who had called
Meenakshi on 26th October
from a pay phone
in Danapur
will help us crack this case.
Yes, I have reached.
It is something
Shalini, Priyanka
and Sunita are hiding from us.
Rajiv, please let me
know if you need any help.
Yes, Brother-in-law Vikas.
We will stay here
just for a few days more
then we will return home.
Sunita.
If uncle calls up,
don't tell him about all this.
We all will work together
to solve this issue.
Yes, Sister.
Listen
you should comply with
what sister-in-law Shalini
and Sunita say.
No matter what we get,
it will be good enough for us.
This is hard
for me to comprehend.
Sister Meenakshi
was missing for three days.
No one could contact her
over the phone as well.
It didn't even
matter to Sister Sunita?
Look, Priyanka.
It's not right to suspect
her in such times.
We are family.
We should stay united
in such times.
It evokes suspicion
that Sunita didn't
take action for three days.
Yes, sir.
Sunita's comes under
our purview of suspicion.
But, sir, if Sunita
was the mastermind
then why would
she be silent for three days?
Rather, she would've
made things known
so that no one suspects her.
Then who is it?
Who is the main
conspirator?
How is it possible
that none of Meenakshi's sisters
mentioned
a word about her lover?
Sir.
There is a twist.
Another one!
Tell me.
The alcohol levels
were really high
in the post-mortem report.
So far, we were
considering the fact
that Meenakshi
was forced to drink alcohol.
But, sir, now we feel that,
it might not be true.
Sir.
None of the family members
or neighbours conveyed this.
Then, who?
Sir, I persuaded
the junk vendor
to reveal this information.
A man named Birju,
who deals in junk in Danapur
he told me..
I guess,
Ms. Meenakshi used to drink.
What?
She used to consume a minimum
of six to seven bottles
of imported alcohol
every month.
Sometimes, the number
used to rise to 10 or even 12.
Getting bottles
from her house
doesn't prove
that she used to drink.
Then who used to drink?
Think about it.
She used to live alone.
In these many years,
I have never seen
anyone go to her house.
For two days,
I enquired in the liquor stores
in and around Danapur.
No one said that she
purchased alcohol from them.
Nandu, then what
about the liquor bottles?
That's a mystery, sir.
Someone must be giving
her stock secretly.
Some acquaintance
must be doing this.
This acquaintance
could well be her lover.
Sir, eight bottles a month
would mean
two bottles a week
and three to four pegs
a day.
she seems close
to being addicted.
Even then the sisters
didn't mention anything
nor did their husbands.
Meenakshi used
to live alone.
She must've
suppressed all this.
Sir, one thing
doesn't seem right.
What?
Sir, the post-mortem report
suggests high alcohol levels
and gang rape.
But there were
no traces of semen.
And that,
the rapists had used condoms.
Yes, so what?
Sir, like we are reconsidering
whether she was forced
to consume alcohol or not
similarly, our theory
of gang rape might not be right.
There were
no traces of semen
but there are signs
of assault, Madhuri.
Sir, those marks
could've been inflicted
during consensual sex as well.
And maybe, we are
under the wrong
impression that it was a rape.
Imported alcohol isn't cheap.
Eight bottles a month.
Sir, Meenakshi used
to earn a handsome amount.
And the same goes
for her lover as well.
Politics is a good source
of income.
Dinkar Patel.
He could be
Meenakshi's lover.
He could be
the murderer as well.
That's why he tried
to mislead us, telling us
about her uncle
and the property angle.
He is a politician.
Plotting against, deceiving
and manipulating people
are all part of
his daily routine.
So, are you trying
to blackmail me?
No, Mr. Rajput.
You are a famous man.
I won't make such a mistake.
So, what are you trying
to indicate?
I just wanted to say,
you had guests on 26th October.
Meenakshi Gupta
was murdered on the same night.
After a gang rape.
Look, I am not associated
to this in any way.
And don't call me again.
Don't even think
about blackmailing me.
I can't do anything
for you at this moment.
Stay away from me.
Did you follow?
Hello.
I am Malti Raghuvanshi.
I am calling from Danapur.
Yes, Ms. Malti.
Tell me.
I want to say something
about Meenakshi Gupta.
Meenakshi was a
close friend of mine.
She was a childhood friend.
Do you have information
about her murder?
I don't know if it's associated
to her murder or not
but there is something
I want to say about her
which only I know.
I feel, it's something
that I should tell you.
Sunita!
Malti feels Sunita
is responsible
for Meenakshi's death.
Sir, Malti didn't
say exactly that.
Malti feels Sunita
might be responsible.
Because of the property?
Sir, then it could be
that Sunita abducted her.
The other sisters
and their husbands
might be involved
in this as well.
The matter isn't clear, sir.
Malti said she'll
speak face to face.
She will be here in some time.
She said,
Meenakshi told her something
which no one else
is aware of.
If your loneliness
is bothering you
then why don't
you get married?
Who are you waiting for now?
Should I say it?
What is it?
Come on,
don't hide it from me.
Don't misunderstand me.
Don't beat around the bush.
Just say it.
Malti, I am doing something.
I have been
doing something.
If I say it to someone,
they won't believe me.
Are you talking about
your addiction to alcohol?
Then?
It's an aspect of my life
which no one is aware of.
No one will find out
about it in this lifetime.
It will remain a secret
after my death as well.
You are building
such great suspense.
Just say it.
Sunita.
I think, even we should
leave by tomorrow.
I am getting scared,
Rajeev.
I hope, uncle doesn't
take possession of the house.
How can he
just do such a thing?
I'll speak
to Vikas and Kapil.
We have to think
of a solution together.
A lot has happened.
No one needs
to be scared of anyone, anymore.
Speak to Rajeev
as soon as possible.
Settle this matter.
Whatever we learnt
about Meenakshi Gupta
those were
other's opinion of her.
Malti, Meenakshi's
close friend..
She didn't come to us
with her personal opinion.
She came to us to disclose
a fact about Meenakshi.
What Malti told us
was a different aspect
of Meenakshi's life.
It was such an aspect
which was hard to fathom.
At that moment
we didn't have a way
to understand its truthfulness.
While this murder case
was being solved
it unveiled several
frauds and scams.
Tomorrow night, we will
disclose this case in entirety.
'Jai Hind!'
