Karm Yuddh (कर्म युद्ध)

There is a saying in Bengal.

A lion in the forest and a crocodile in the lake.

Which means that there is danger on all sides.

And in war,

to face any danger,

you need to be just as dangerous.

And you need to use the weak points of the danger

to turn it into your strength.

That was just a saying.

This is a story about the Roys.

The Roys.

One of the most powerful families in Kolkata.

The kind of family

that considers each other's weaknesses their strength.

The kind of family that has lions

and crocodiles.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen!

On behalf of Roy Group of Industries,

we welcome our new partners

from the land of miracles, Arabic Oil.

This merger will not only help the common lives in Bengal

but also the reputation of Indian business diaspora around the world.

This company was started by our founder,

Mr. Yash Roy, in a tiny warehouse in 1955.

He had one dream.

When the world writes its history,

then those pages

should be made in Bengal.

When the paper made in Roy Mills

began circulating not just in India

but all over the world,

that was when he decided

to hand over his dream to his two sons,

Mr. Bhisham Roy and Mr. Vardhan Roy.

Ladies and gentlemen,

with a huge round of applause,

please welcome

Mr. Bhisham Roy.

It is my younger sister's wedding.

It is a joyous occasion.

Here you go. Help yourselves.

Hey! Hey!

Good.

You don't need wings to fly.

You need courage.

The sweat on your brow

is the pearl in your pocket.

When the pebble in your path

makes you feel at home,

that is when you can fit the whole world in your hands.

My father used to say,

"I don't know about history,

"but we are definitely writing the present."

Let me share with you one of the secrets of my success.

The credit for the spectacular performance

of the Roy Group of Industries

goes to the blood and sweat shed by our workers

who have been working for us for generations.

This evening

would not be possible if it weren't for one person.

And that person is

my brother,

Vardhan Roy.

Just the Roys.

Excuse me.

Okay. Fine. Yeah.

Sir, there is a fire in the factory.

His highness...

Bhisham Roy's fight with these people began

when he claimed that the land is filled with Naxals.

Bhisham Roy's fight with these people began,

when he claimed that the land is filled with Naxals.

Are there any survivors?

No, sir.

Death count?

Forty, sir.

Activate the entire machinery.

At the press conference today, I felt like--

There is no need to hurry, Adesh.

Let the fire spread properly.

It's the perfect timing, ma'am.

You won't get a better opportunity.

Sympathy, Adesh.

Sympathy.

The sympathy of the board members lies with Bhisham.

And the sympathy of the labourers lies with me.

It is a battle between the two of us now.

The board is necessary to save the chair.

But labour is necessary to save the company.

I understand.

But we have to point fingers, right?

That's what you are here for.

Use your media power. I am not funding you for free.

Okay.

I had an idea, Ms. Indrani. Why wait for two years?

It's an auspicious occasion to make your debut in politics, isn't it?

First the company, then politics.

-Down with... -Bhisham Roy!

-Down with... -Bhisham Roy!

-Down with... -Bhisham Roy!

-Down with... -Bhisham Roy!

-Down with... -Bhisham Roy!

-Down with... -Bhisham Roy!

Forgive me.

I wasn't there to save them.

My own people.

Forgive me.

Being an essential part of this company, I promise you

that I will get them what they deserve.

Everybody will get their rights.

The death of these people

and the tears in the eyes of their loved ones will not go in vain.

I promise.

-Long live... -Indrani Roy!

-Long live... -Indrani Roy!

-Long live... -Indrani Roy!

-Long live... -Indrani Roy!

-Long live... -Indrani Roy!

Indrani Roy.

Vardhan Roy's second wife and first mistake.

The eyes that just shed crocodile tears

have held onto one dream for many years.

Ruling over the Roy Group of Industries.

This business is the inheritance of the Roys

and Indrani Roy's emotion.

Bhisham Roy, chairman of the Roy Group of Industries.

After his father, Yash Roy, passed away,

he did a commendable job running the business.

But now Indrani Roy poses a threat to him.

Bhisham Roy is the lion

who will fight till his last breath to protect his legacy.

Indrani Roy thinks that,

when people see her fake tears,

they will go against a person like Bhisham Roy.

That is her biggest mistake.

Her tears have made no difference. This is an act of pure evil.

And to investigate this incident,

an investigative team from Delhi has reached Kolkata.

I need all the details.

When did the factory open?

Who owned the land before this?

What licences did they apply for, and how did they apply for them?

Also...

Which officer received bribes worth how much?

Legal and illegal constructions.

Worker details and car registrations.

I need everything.

You will have it by evening, sir.

Good.

Allu, local round-up.

What are the stories, rumours and threats to this place?

Any incidents in the neighbouring areas.

Any old employees with grudges or new employees with passion.

We need to know everything. You know how to make friends.

Got it.

Oh, sorry. No Telugu, only Hindi, English or Bangla.

I understand.

Similar crime scene. Three years ago.

Noida, Delhi.

Sir, this is a massacre.

Killing so many people and burning their bodies?

It's madness.

Something is amiss, sir. I can feel it.

If you want someone to run,

then don't tell them to run. Light a fire.

What the fuck does that mean, Allu?

It's a saying in Telugu.

If you want someone to run away, then don't tell them to run.

Just light a fire.

They will run away on their own.

You mean to say this fire was for Bhisham?

Or Bhisham Roy lit this fire himself.

Too soon to say.

All 40 people who died were Indrani Roy's labourers.

Indrani is my younger brother Vardhan's wife.

And she is a part of the Roy family.

They were her contracted labourers.

She has a separate company for that.

AR Infra is the name of that company.

It is named after my son.

Nobody else

is connected to that company.

So, why did they spend the night there?

They have spent the night there in the past

on the way to their village.

This massacre was a surprise attack.

We all were taken aback. Shocked.

Are you trying to defend Indrani Roy?

What do you mean defend?

Everyone can see the truth.

We should actually be defending the families of those labourers.

And we should ensure that they get justice.

Without any compromises.

That is exactly what we are here for, Mrs. Roy.

The Roys have no doubts about it.

We trust your investigation completely.

How is your relationship with Indrani Roy?

Rumour has it that there is a feud amongst the two Roys.

Which family is perfect?

Minor disagreements exist in every relationship.
