Ghost (घोस्ट)

Barkha!

Barkha!

Did you get it?

Here it is.

Thanks, Mel.

This is the last time, you’ll be thanking me.

I can't get anymore medicines for you on this prescription.

Really sorry, boss.

The pharmacist said the prescription's quite old.

I'll figure out something when I need more pills.

This will be enough for the time being.

Your cast came off two weeks ago.

You have no problem walking either.

I don’t think you are in pain.

Boss, I think you are addicted to them.

You're addicted to morphine.

Mel, I asked for a painkiller not a mother.

I am sorry…

I didn’t mean it that way.

Morning.

Good morning, John.

Where sleeps thy missus?

Back in my bed Sim, back in my bed.

For now, she decided to end the games and play house.

Well, that’s good to know.

If you need me to pay her another visit, it’s on the house for you.

Did Sid call when I was in court?

No, he didn’t.

What’s my first appointment?

Well, it was Freddy Owens.

But I have pushed it back an hour…

Due to an urgent request.

Urgent request?

Bob Anand.

Karan Khanna’s election campaign manager…

He has requested an urgent meeting with you.

I see.

Thank you, David. - Thank you, ma’am.

Please.

Yes, of course.

Well, I'm sure you are aware why I am here.

I am.

I can say with certainty that Karan didn’t kill his wife.

Mr. Anand, in all these years my career has certainly taught me

that in this day and age, no one is innocent.

Even those who look innocent.

But Karan is.

And I can prove that.

Really?

Karan was with me, the night Barkha was murdered.

I had organised a fundraiser for him.

Many well-known and powerful people attended it.

Karan had a drink too many.

I'd suggested him not to drive.

And to stay at my place instead.

He was in my house till morning.

I see.

But Mr. Anand, this is just a statement given by you.

How is it a proof?

It is possible that you are lying for Mr. Khanna.

I am just his campaign manager, not his friend.

Both he and I will lose reputation, if I lie for him.

Fine, I'll believe you for the time being.

Ms. Singh, elections take place in two months.

Opposition will certainly exploit this scandal.

If this matter escalates, he won't even get a chance to contest the elections.

His political career will end even before it begins.

Karan has come a long way, to be here.

To become an MP is his dream.

He actually wants to do something for his community.

And I guess this is not possible while he is in prison.

That's why I have come to you.

Look Mr. Anand, I am not promising anything

but I'd like a meeting with Mr. Khanna.

And after that I'll decide whether or not I want to take on this case.

Sure.

I’ll be waiting outside.

Thank you.

You’re welcome.

'Inmates of Cell B, C, D who are not engaged in any work'

'are ordered to assemble in the assembly area.'

'I repeat.'

'Inmates of Cell B, C, D who are not engaged in any work'

'are ordered to assemble in the assembly ground.'

Behave yourself!

They have handcuffed me.

It's surely not necessary for this meeting.

Trust me.

It’s too soon to trust you.

If you think that I have… - What I think doesn't matter.

What I can prove is what matters.

What do you mean? - Mr. Khanna

I mean it honestly makes no difference to me

whether or not you have murdered your wife.

But it would certainly make a difference to your defence.

So it'd be better for you, if you honestly tell me what happened that night.

Because if the prosecution knows something I don’t know

then it could become a big problem for you.

I am not lying.

The truth is that I am innocent.

I didn’t kill my wife.

Police got this footage from the CCTV camera in your house.

You went home at two on the night your wife was murdered.

You left home again at four.

And then, went back at half past six.

Police has arrested you on the basis of this.

I know.

Then you also know that Bob's alibi won't work because of these photos.

So you see Mr. Khanna, the truth isn’t what you believe in

the truth is what you can prove.

I spent the night at Bob's.

This is not me.

Fine.

Then we'll tell the jury that he's your evil twin

who got separated at a fair in London.

You think this is funny?

You are the one who thinks that both the law and I are a joke!

I am helpless here, the facts are such.

The more truth I tell you, the more you'll think that I am lying.

You have no other option other than to tell me the truth.

Our home is haunted by a spirit.

Barkha and I, we both have felt its presence.

That spirit killed Barkha.

My wife…

she was killed by a ghost.

I told you, you won't believe me.

If you think a ghost has killed your wife…

Well, I can't argue with that.

I mean, I too haven’t seen God.

But that doesn't mean there is no God.

But unfortunately Mr. Khanna, law is applicable only to humans…

And not to ghosts and spirits.

So you see, I can't help you.

You need a black magic expert…

And not a legal expert.

Ms. Simran…

There comes a point in everyone's life

when they need someone to believe in them.

Even one person is enough.

And I thought, perhaps, you are that one person for me.

Goodbye, Mr. Khanna.

Hello!

Is anyone there?

Mr. Khanna, we can still save your wife.

Come.

Look at these photographs.

This incident took place last night.

Karan thought he was having a nightmare

but these marks were on his body when he woke up.

Mr. Anand, you know that we cannot prove anything

in the court on the basis of these photographs.

I am sorry.

I am not asking you to prove anything.

I am just requesting you to believe Karan.

If you cannot fight this case then at least help him get bail.

Fine.

But I need some time to think.

Thank you.

That means a lot.

I haven't said yes as yet, Mr. Anand.

All I said is I’ll think about it.

I know but for now, that’s more than enough.

Hi. - Hi.

We have a table in the name of Sid Sharma?

Oh, yes, of course.

He is waiting for you at a table by the window.

Allow me to show you.

He is right over there.

Thank you. - You’re welcome.

Hi!

I’m so sorry I’m late.

You won’t believe I got such a strange case today.

I actually wanted to discuss it with you.

Sorry.

It’s fine. - I got late because of it.

Let's order first.

We can talk later.

Sid, are you okay?

No hi, no hello.

I didn’t even get a proper courtesy kiss.

You jumped straight into ordering food!

I don’t have time for all these formalities.

I need to go back to court.

I need to review a lot of cases.

Okay…

Even I go to court and have cases, Sid.

And I know that you're one of the youngest judges

and I am just an ordinary lawyer.

But you can't be so busy that you can't spare time to make a phone call.

I don’t have time for all these things.

Please, Simran.

Let's finish lunch so that we can go back to our respective offices.

What’s wrong with you, Sid?

Why are you so upset?

You have even started ignoring my phone calls and messages.

What changed between us suddenly?

Fuck, Simmi!

Not again!

I am so sorry.

I can’t do this anymore.
