Don’t you dare!
What are you all doing standing around here!
I was coming to the police station to make my speech before the mob gathered there!
I wanted to witness with my own eyes the burning of that police station!
Sire, we’d made a whole game plan.
We’d even hidden cans of petrol and taken them along with us but-
But?
But what?!
But sire, Kamal and his daughter arrived there that at the last moment and ruined our entire plan!
They ruined your plan?
How!
Jeevan’s father and his daughter, themselves, stood as witnesses for the police sire
And Jeevan’s own sister said that his death wasn’t the police’s fault.
What nonsense!
Did Jeevan’s sister say this herself?
Yes she did sire.
And then after her father confirmed it, the mob dispersed and we never got a chance to put our plan into action.
That Policeman got saved once again.
...But why did Kamal and his daughter stand witness for the police?
I don’t know sire.
We were ourselves quite surprised.
It seems that Jeevan’s sister found out the truth.
Otherwise this is the very same Sassi who humiliated and insulted
this very same police officer in her house just a few days back…
...when he went there to condole with them about Jeevan, sire.
The policeman went to condole with them at their house?
Yes sire and the whole neighborhood bore witness to it.
Lets go, Chittay.
Sir, there’s a meeting going on inside.
The ASP Sir has asked not to be disturbed.
Is that right?
Yes Sir.
I see.
And how long will this meeting of your ‘Sir’ carry on?
I don’t know Sir.
I’ll wait outside.
‘...Meeting going on’
Actually, the reason I came that day was to tell you….
that Jeevan was last seen…
...going off with Meeral’s special right hand man Aslam in a jeep.
The villagers told us that…
meaning,
it was Aslam who took Jeevan to where he ended up.
...And Aslam was also amongst people that escaped that night.
Yes, that’s right Mr. ASP.
Sadly we got to know of the truth a bit late in the day.
I’ve come ….
to apologize for the way you were treated that day.
No, no please professor Sir, there’s no need to apologize.
I know that you’ve ….
suffered a tremendous loss.
But I do want to assure you of one thing,
I won’t let the people who put Jeevan on this path get away with it.
Sir, this is my daughter Sassi.
She would also like to say something to you.
Yes Sassi, what did you wish to say?
I…
wanted to apologize for that day.
I really misbehaved with you.
I lost all sense or right and wrong in my over emotional state of mind.
If possible, please do forgive me.
It’s alright.
A police officer has to bear a lot of harsh criticism in his life.
Anyways
so tell me something,
are you going to accept the job of the primary teacher?
That too is a favor done by you.
Thank you very much for this kindness as well.
...Otherwise, after all that happened that day
Had anyone else been in your place,
He would not have shown such generosity.
Not at all.
I made a promise to your father therefore it was my duty to fulfill that promise
What’s good is that the children from this area will now be able to go to school.
In fact, I’m going to try my level best to make sure the school’s other staff also join it as soon as possible.
Alright?
God willing.
What nonsense are you talking Dhani Baksh!
How did such a large mob back down!
Why didn’t they burn down the police station?!
My beloved Sire, I am myself quite surprised by all this.
Kamal and his daughter…
turned the whole situation around.
Our men didn’t even get the chance to instigate any kind of rage and or even start a brawl.
But why did he and his daughter speak up for the police and absolve them?
Sire,
that damn Kamal is the only one who can tell you the reason for it.
...But no matter what, they did manage to ruin our whole scheme.
Then go
and find out
who filled their ears.
...Wait!
Also warn him
that he must never request me to do anything for him ever again.
Alright sire…
okay.
Alright then,
I will beg your leave now.
I…
I am …
a very weak and a helpless father…
who can’t give you anything other than my blessing.
I have nothing more…
that is worthy of your status.
You’re now embarrassing me sir.
Just remember one thing,
The doors of my office will always be open to you and people who are helpless like you.
Do me this one favor please…
…Place your faith in the police force of the area.
Your faith and trust is what gives us the strength
Thank you.
Bless you.
This is a …
very important message.
Please make sure to read it.
Careful…
Professor sir!
Is everything alright?
Your meeting was rather long.
Yes, yes Mr. Jailer,
everything’s fine.
Your senior officer wanted some information.
What information?
Only as to …
who were Jeevan’s regular friends and acquaintances.
Father,
Alright then Mr. Jailer, goodbye.
At least hear what I have to say as well, Professor Kamal.
When Peeral sire finds out
that you and your daughter came here….
He won’t like it
You should have asked for advice first.
I have a suspicion…
...Are you’re working for the government ….
or the landlord?
Are you a jailer …
or the security guard for the landlord.
Sassi.
Come along.
How many times have I told you not to interrupt elders!
Now come on!
Wow, oh wow…
Such an effect and that too after only one meeting?
Amazing
She hit me with the…
No dearest, no…
May I come in Sir?
Yes, what is it Jahan Dad?
Uh…
What I came to say was that the arrival of the father and daughter
at the right time was a good thing, they handled the entire situation.
...Otherwise
it could have escalated into a very serious situation with disastrous results.
You’re right Jahan Dad.
...But we can still have a fight on our hands if we don’t catch the right criminals.
…Yes.
I want Meeral’s henchman Aslam, Jahan Dad …
No matter what.
I’m trying Sir… but he’s not in the area.
Then where has he gone?
Huh?
Has the earth and or the sky swallowed him!
What kind of a jailer are you?
An SHO is someone who even knows the corpses buried in his areas cemetery
...And you can’t find one man?
Sir,
I have tried.
I’ll still look into its sir.
...But its also possible that …
he isn’t even involved in this matter.
The investigation I conducted…
of his friends and relative, all of them told me that
he’d left the area way before this incident.
Hmm.
You have forty-eight hours, Jahan Dad.
If you don’t present Aslam before me within the next forty-eight Hours, Jahan Dad…
then I will be forced … to get a search warrant from the Home Department for Meeral’s house.
There will be a search…
...and the front runner of it…
will be you.
Search of the house sir…?
What to do…
...There’s no other choice.
And… if you
can’t find him in the area then…
he must be hiding out at the big house.
Get ready.
Okay?
May God keep your pair safe.
May God bless you with a son.
May God bless the couple with an heir…
May God bless keep your pair safe.
May God bless the couple with an heir…
In the name of the Lord….In the name of the Lord.
This air of sheer happiness you see on Peeral sire’s face?
Its because of his having been given the blessing of new heir of this house.
The prayer is the same.
The only difference is that the one receiver of the blessing is another.
I’m watching everything, Madam Sardari.
Seems as if you’re about to lose the assured position you once held as well.
