"Everything can be earned in this fast-paced life."
"The only thing that cannot be earned
for our children
and our family is time."
-I don't want to drink milk. -Adi.
-I find it disgusting. -Adi, listen to me.
-Why are you troubling me, Shanta? -Have a little bit, please.
-I don't want to drink it. -Adi.
-I don't want to drink it, Shanta.
I've told you not to address her by her name. She's older than you.
It's okay. I like it.
Aren't we friends, Adi?
Come on, quickly finish your milk.
Then we will go to daycare.
-Okay? -I'll drink it later.
Mom, tell me. We are going to the play-zone tomorrow, right?
Not tomorrow, Adi. Dad and I have to go to Goa tomorrow.
We have some work.
How about next weekend? We will go for sure.
But Mom, you promised.
You people don't love me.
Hey… Who told you
that Mom and Dad don't love Adi?
-Mom and Dad love Adi the most. -Really?
Okay. I'll take leave now.
I'm going to be late.
Shanta, please take care of the kids. I'm going.
Okay, ma'am.
Go to school on time, Nisha.
You gave Nisha a goodbye kiss.
What about me?
You love Nisha the most.
No, my dear. No one loves Nisha.
Mom and Dad love Adi the most.
Okay, come.
Come on, Kirti. It's getting late.
Yes, I'm coming.
Dad is waiting.
We'll miss the train.
You know Adi's tantrums. It's a daily thing.
Okay, let's go.
Please keep the doors and windows
of your house locked properly.
If you see any unidentified person near your house,
call the Police on 100 immediately.
Don't share your income and expenditure with others.
Maybe it's the Rajasthan robbery gang.
-The modus operandi is the same. -Looks like that, ma'am.
They target societies where there are wireless CCTV cameras.
These cameras can be blocked using a signal blocker.
Acid is used to melt the main door, then they enter through the windows.
In the last one and a half months, there have been 25 such cases.
And the biggest coincidence is,
these people know when the family is away on vacation.
This means along with observing the house, they are talking to someone
who is giving them all this inside information.
Right, ma'am.
We are talking to
all the families from these older cases.
Maybe we will get a lead.
Keep sending the circular to all the societies.
If possible increase the security too.
Appeal to get the wireless CCTV changed.
Thankfully there have been no casualties.
Before a victim loses their life, we have to find them.
-I'll leave. -Okay, sir.
-Good night. See you later. -Good night.
Kirti, I've left my office.
I'll meet you outside Santa Cruz station in half an hour.
Okay, fine. I've taken our things from the house.
The flight is at 12:30 a.m.
Okay.
Both of them look around 30 years old.
They look like they belong to an upper-middle-class family.
We have to find out who they both are
and if they know each other.
Do one thing. Check the CCTVs in this area.
And inquire in the neighboring stores too.
Someone might have seen something.
What do you feel, ma'am? Is it murder or suicide?
Send the bodies for postmortem.
We found neither a phone nor a wallet.
It will be tough to identify these victims.
I found some more numbers in this.
Call them and find out.
Check the CCTV footage too.
And if you need extra people, let me know.
We have to find their families as soon as possible.
I will give you the money.
Please, I need it today. Please, bro.
Okay, I promise to settle all the scores on the first of next month.
But please bring the stuff.
Let's get the stuff and finish our work quickly.
Nisha. Wake up.
Nisha, please wake up.
I can't find Adi. Nisha.
Nisha, please wake up.
Nisha, wake up.
Adi is nowhere to be found.
I don't know where Adi is. He must be here somewhere.
He's nowhere. I looked all over the house. Adi is nowhere.
I'll check.
Adi… Adi.
-Adi. -Adi…
Nisha, he's nowhere.
-I've looked everywhere. -Adi.
-Adi, where are you? -He's nowhere, Nisha…
Let me look for him.
Adi.
-Adi… -Adi.
Adi, come out. Adi.
I've been trying to wake you up all morning. Adi is nowhere.
I have called Mr. Ashwin.
Your Mom and Dad must be on their way.
Adi…
Adi, where are you hiding?
-Shanta. -Shanta.
Where is Adi, Shanta?
I don't know. I've looked all over the house.
He was with you, right?
-I looked everywhere. -Nisha, where is Adi?
-Shanta, you should have been careful. -Ma'am, I don't know.
-I don't know. -Were you playing with him?
I looked everywhere.
-What is this? -Dad…
How can he just disappear?
I don't know, sir.
-When I went they were sleeping. -Where were you for three hours?
Kirti, check the room. He may be hiding there.
I'll go out and check. He must be here.
Look for him.
There have been reports of robberies in this area.
My team and I will supervise the robbery cases here.
Okay, ma'am.
Ma'am, now that you're here, the case will be cracked.
Before a big crime takes place, we have to not crack the case.
-We have to close it. -Yes.
Ma'am, why are you taking so long to write the report?
Find my son, first. He's a seven-year-old boy.
Please calm down.
Tell me what's the matter?
How many times should I tell you?
I'm wasting time just repeating myself.
Sir, our son, Aditya Shenoy,
is just seven years old.
He's been missing from the house since this morning.
The whole house is a mess.
We looked for him everywhere. But we did not find him.
Please, I pray before you.
Please find him.
Do you have his photo?
And send the other details too.
We've already done that. Send someone, please. Find him.
Ma'am, you just now mentioned that the house is a mess.
Was there a robbery too?
Adi…
Adi, where are you, my child?
Ma'am, please find my son.
Are any valuables missing?
I don't know, ma'am.
We haven't checked.
Is your son missing from the house?
Shanta brought him from daycare.
He was at home during the night.
After that, we could not find him.
Who is Shanta?
Our nanny.
Tell me, Shanta, what happened yesterday?
Leave me here, Shanta. I'll sleep at Tamanna's house.
Then Nisha will miss you, won't she?
Yes, Adi. You must not be adamant like this.
Go home now. We'll meet again, tomorrow.
Okay.
Be careful, Adi.
Easy.
It felt like someone was there.
I even turned around and looked.
But there was no one.
And then, both of us came home.
Ma'am, there has been a robbery.
Some antique pieces, a few watches and electronic items are missing.
I'm not able to understand, where did these people come in from?
Both the door and window look fine. There are no signs of forced entry.
Ma'am, the CCTV outside the house was turned off last night.
We are talking to the colony watchman too.
Shirke, find out
if the CCTV was really off, or if it turned off intentionally.
It looks like a planned crime.
Okay, ma'am.
Could this be the handiwork of the Rajasthan robbery gang?
Not sure, Shirke.
So far, in such robbery cases,
there have been no human casualties.
Send out Aditya's photo to all the police stations.
It's not been 12 hours yet. The kidnappers might still be in Mumbai.
And yes, tap everyone's phone in the family.
They might get a ransom call.
Shirke, I want all the details of this family.
Who does what, when… All of it.
God knows how intoxicated they were,
that the thieves came in, took the kid away,
but no one found out anything.
And yes, Shirke.
Call this nanny to the police station for interrogation.
Honestly, ma'am,
I made Aditya sleep beside Nisha,
and then I went to sleep.
That means Nisha was at home
and was sleeping beside Aditya.
Yes, ma'am.
ASHWIN SHENOY
KEEP TEN MILLION READY. OTHERWISE, ADITYA WILL BE KILLED
"Keep ten million ready otherwise, Aditya will be killed."
It's a handwritten note.
What do you think? Who could be behind this?
Do you suspect anyone?
Do you have enmity or fights with anyone?
No, ma'am. There's nothing like that.
The constable has gone to track the courier guy.
But he had already left.
We are trying to look for him.
Do you have ten million rupees to give?
No, ma'am.
It's so tough to live in a city like Mumbai.
EMIs.
We spend our whole lives just meeting day-to-day expenses.
We had gone to sell our house in Goa.
Neither of us got an increment in the last two years.
And we were falling short in paying the children's fees.
Ashwin.
We have to pay Aditya and Nisha's fees.
This time, I'll get a promotion and increment.
I'll get double bonus.
I have no hopes from my boss.
He doesn't even talk to me properly.
Sometimes I feel like quitting.
We're not able to earn well or give proper time to the kids.
Look, Kirti.
Why don't you look for another job?
I mean… If you quit altogether,
then how will we manage?
It's a little difficult for me
to manage all alone.
Should I bring a new job from the vegetable market?
Sometimes I feel adopting Nisha was the wrong decision.
Have you lost your mind?
What are you saying?
At least talk softly.
Shall we sell our Goa apartment?
We purchased a 2BHK apartment in Goa, four years ago.
We had gone to sell that.
But all this happened behind our backs.
Just a minute.
I won't be able to come to the office for three to four days.
What do you mean, Kirti?
Sir, my son has been kidnapped.
I will call you later, sir.
It was a call from the office.
Did you adopt Nisha?
Yes, ma'am. Aditya was born to us four years after we adopted Nisha.
We want all of Aditya's details.
What was his routine?
Only then we can figure out who could reach him.
One more thing.
When you left for Goa, what happened that night?
Like every day,
we dropped him at daycare.
Tamanna.
We are not in Mumbai tomorrow.
So, Shanta will pick up Aditya.
Are you going somewhere?
Yes, we are going to Goa.
We want to sell our apartment in Goa.
We have got an offer of ten million for it.
Okay, no worries.
I'll take care of Aditya.
Does Aditya go to daycare?
Yes, ma'am. Shanta was not able to manage
two children and the house all alone.
So, we decided to send Aditya to daycare.
"An unknown suitcase has been found near Bhiwandi Checkpoint."
"Calling the nearest unit to check on it."
"An unknown suitcase has been found near Bhiwandi Checkpoint."
"Calling the nearest unit to check on it."
We are not able to identify the child's face.
Three days ago we found the bodies of a man and a woman.
Could he be their son?
Ma'am the bodies of the couple that we found on Bhiwandi Highway,
we have found the body of a child in a suitcase near the same location.
The child's head has been smashed completely.
And we have found CCTV footage.
The child is not visible in this.
This means, the parents killed the child before they committed suicide.
Just a minute.
Mane, find out who this couple is.
Activate the informants.
Take the help of media houses and get the ads printed, quickly.
Ma'am, we've got the call records
of Aditya's father, Ashwin Shenoy.
We found an interesting point.
He was getting calls from Kolkata's red light area in the last few days.
What?
I've been working in Mrs. Kirti's house for the last ten years.
No matter what problem came up,
she would always take care of her children.
She keeps them happy.
And ma'am,
which house does not have problems?
I don't know, for the last few months
there were a lot of arguments between the mother and daughter.
Nisha was behaving quite strangely.
She had become very agitated.
Nisha.
Rs 4,000 is missing from my purse. You have taken it, right?
Me?
I'm not a thief.
You must have spent it on online shopping.
You have a few parcels coming every day.
No.
Why don't you hit me more?
Anyway, I'm a burden on you. Am I right?
-Hey… -But don't worry, Mom.
I'll find a good job after my 12th and leave this house.
Then all your problems will end.
Nisha. I'm sorry, dear.
What was the reason for that agitation?
I don't know, ma'am.
Nothing can be said about kids these days.
But yes, ma'am. Nisha used to take very good care of Aditya.
She used to love him a lot.
What about Kirti and Ashwin?
They would leave around seven in the morning,
and come back by about ten or 11 at night.
From Monday to Saturday.
They would spend time with the kids only on Sunday.
But ma'am, it was my fault, right?
I took a sleeping pill before sleeping.
If I had not taken the painkiller,
then maybe I wouldn't be so fast asleep.
Ma'am the kidnapping gang and the Rajasthan robbery gang
have had no activity yet.
And we have not got any tips for the kidnapping yet.
Tighten the blockade.
Start raiding all the secluded areas in the city.
I strongly feel that the robbery was just a setup.
The actual motive is something else.
One thing is bothering me.
It's been more than 24 hours since the ransom note was sent.
Why haven't the kidnappers contacted them to tell them the location?
Yes, Mane.
Ma'am, the bodies of the couple
that we found on Bhiwandi Highway have been identified.
Their names are Arti Tambe and Manoj Tambe.
They are residents of Dongri.
We found out from the neighbors that they had hefty loans to repay.
Two weeks ago, the husband also lost his job.
That must be why they killed themselves.
But, ma'am, they don't have a kid.
What?
Then who was that child whose body we found?
I just hope I'm thinking the wrong thing.
Let's do one thing.
We'll show the boy's dead body to Aditya's family.
The age of both the boys is quite similar.
Ma'am, this cannot be my Adi.
It cannot be him.
My son is not like this.
This is not Adi, ma'am.
Adi.
-Adi… -Adi…
Adi, my child.
Adi.
Who did this to Adi?
Adi…
"There's a new revelation in the Aditya kidnapping case."
"The body that was found in relation to the Bhiwandi suicide case
two days ago,
belongs to Aditya, according to the police."
-Move aside. -Move, everyone.
-Move aside. -Please move.
-Move. -Move aside.
-Move. -Move.
The killer is smart.
He traveled from Kandivali to Bhiwandi with the body.
This means he reads crime-related news.
He knew very well that on the Thane-Bhiwandi highway
two dead bodies were found a few days ago.
That's why, he dumped the body in that place.
But he distorted the child's face before dumping the body.
After putting the boy's body in the suitcase,
he threw the suitcase there itself.
Find out where this suitcase was purchased from.
And I want all the details about Ashwin and Kirti's apartment in Goa.
And, yes…
Did you find out who was calling Ashwin from Kolkata?
No, ma'am.
Find out quickly.
I want all the information along with the name and details.
I don't want to give Ashwin any chance to lie.
Nisha used to take drugs. She owes Rs 25,000 to the dealer.
Take her. Yes… Take her.
My son is already dead.
Take my daughter too.
Where should I send her?
Tell me where I should send her.
Take everyone and go.
A lady named Roopa used to call you from Kolkata.
Why?
Mr. Ashwin. I asked, why?
That… I…
I was very tense for the last six months.
I did not want to trouble Kirti anymore.
Now tell us.
Greetings. Yes?
Who are you?
This…
She's my daughter.
I left her outside an NGO in Patna.
I heard she lives with you.
Yes.
She's our daughter.
We have legally adopted her.
Please leave.
Sir, we want that girl back.
What do you mean, you want her back?
Does this look like a joke to you?
Excuse me.
Do you know?
-This is Roopa. -So?
She is from Kolkata's red light area.
And this child is her daughter.
-We want her back. -Get out of here.
I'll call the police otherwise, get out.
Will you call the police? Go.
Let's see today.
Your entire neighborhood will watch.
Your daughter is from the red light area.
When she becomes famous she will come back to us.
What kind of a mother are you?
What will you get by demeaning your daughter?
Look, I'm telling you for the last time
Nisha is our daughter.
Okay? So, please…
Please leave.
You're not doing the right thing.
I'll come back one day.
I will proudly take my daughter back.
You're Nisha, right?
Nisha.
What are you doing?
My dear child.
-What are you doing, ma'am? -Nisha.
-What are you doing, ma'am? -Come inside, Nisha.
-Who are these people, Dad? -No one, they are some agents.
Go inside.
Why did you not tell me this sooner, Ashwin?
I'm pleading.
I beg of you.
These things should remain between us.
We have lost our son.
We don't want to lose Nisha.
Please understand me.
Our position is already very bad.
Do you both know your daughter Nisha is doing drugs?
What?
The night Aditya was kidnapped, where was Nisha that night?
-She was at home, ma'am. -She was not at home.
After Aditya slept, she went out.
She met the drug dealer. And after Shanta went to sleep,
she came back home late in the night.
Don't you know about this?
No…
This is wrong.
-This is not possible. -Our Nisha would never do this.
-She doesn't do drugs. -We have proof.
Let's get the stuff and finish our work quickly.
We have caught your dealer.
Did someone forcibly give you drugs?
No one forced me.
I am tired of my home situation.
I'm frustrated.
Everyone talks only about office work in the house.
Mom and Dad are always fighting.
No one knows what I want and what Adi wants.
And, I… I'm an adopted child.
My Mom does not love me.
And Dad is only busy earning money.
Do you know you're adopted?
Sometimes I feel adopting Nisha was the wrong decision.
Have you lost your mind?
What are you saying?
At least talk softly.
I hope you did not harm Aditya
because of this frustration.
No.
He was the only one who understood me in the house.
Nisha.
Nisha, why are you crying?
Please don't cry.
I'll solve all your problems
when I grow up.
Please don't cry. You are the world's best sister.
Please don't cry.
Promise me you'll never cry.
What do you think? Could Nisha have anything to do with this?
It's tough to say, ma'am.
The suitcase in which Aditya's body was found,
was purchased from Nagpur.
From a local vendor.
The suitcase is from Nagpur.
The ransom note is from Pune.
And by the time we got the ransom note,
by then Aditya was already dead.
The killer, be it male or female,
is technically very strong.
Because it's not easy to jam a CCTV.
Aditya's daycare manager, Tamanna, is here.
Ashwin was not happy with his wife.
That's what he had told me.
They used always have fights
regarding the children's responsibilities.
And Aditya was that link
that had kept them both together.
-Is their relationship that bad? -Yes, ma'am.
There's not only a rift,
everything is broken between them.
Ashwin's condition is going from bad to worse.
I can't even leave her, Tamanna.
And if hold on to her, then it hurts.
If you hold the rope too tight,
then your hands will get bruised.
Think about your mental state, Ashwin.
Divorce is very common these days.
It's not like our generation doesn't know how to handle a marriage.
But it's because we have understood,
that a relationship has to have some kind of fulfilment.
You're right.
Anyway,
Prathamesh is also there in our relationship.
Kirti's boss, Prathamesh.
My blood boils every time I hear his name.
Is Kirti having an affair with her boss?
I'm not sure, ma'am.
Ashwin did not confirm anything.
But yes, he would mention his name now and then.
How long have you known Ashwin for?
Ashwin and I began our careers together.
He was my first colleague.
Because of my Dad's illness,
I preferred to work from home.
And then, I started a home creche and tuition.
After that, Ashwin purchased his house in Kandivali.
We reconnected after that.
Okay, you may go.
I don't see how a seven-year-old could've harmed anyone.
Shirke, did you find out anything about that couple from Kolkata?
Ma'am, they'll come here in three to four hours.
Roopa's agent Vishal lives in Patna.
That's where both of them were hiding.
Hello, Prathamesh.
I've forwarded the mail to you.
Sorry, I'm a little late.
Why did you kill Aditya?
For ten million rupees, right?
Where did you learn the technology from?
Tell me or I'll not spare you.
No, sir.
I swear I did not kill anyone.
Roopa just wanted
her daughter back.
Because you did not get Nisha, you vented your anger on Aditya?
I've grown old.
My youth is gone.
I cannot become a mother now.
That's why I found out where Nisha was.
I don't know anything beyond that.
And when Ashwin refused once, you agreed?
No. How could I accept that?
She's my daughter.
I went to their house many times.
-Adi, give me my phone. -No, I won't give it.
-Adi, give me my phone. -No, I won't.
You're becoming naughtier by the day.
I told you not to play with the phone, right? Give it back.
No, I won't.
-Give it here, Adi. -No.
Adi…
Our child is our child.
And an outsider is an outsider.
I would never talk to my child like this.
I saw you talking to my father the other day.
Who are you?
Did you tell her who you were?
I'm from Kolkata.
I live in the red light area there.
The most important thing is
that I'm your mother.
Mother?
I can understand your mental state.
But both of them adopted Nisha
because you couldn't take good care of her.
Neither could they.
Never mind Nisha, look at how they treated their son.
He was their own blood.
They lost him too.
Is that why you killed Aditya?
So that you could prove that Kirti and Ashwin are not good parents?
You don't have any proof against me.
Right?
Shirke, get all the information for Roopa and her friend.
Where they were in the last 20 days,
and whom they met. What their schedule was…
-I want to know everything. -Okay, ma'am.
Did you find out Shanta's background?
Ma'am, she's been in their house for the last ten years.
Her husband left her. She has a son.
He works as a waiter in a hotel in Pune.
That ransom note had come from Pune, by courier, right?
-Yes, ma'am. -Find out where Shanta's son was.
On the night of the kidnapping.
Check the educational background of all our suspects.
This is not a common crime.
The criminal knows a lot about technology.
Ma'am the Rajasthan gang has been caught in Chattisgarh.
There were four people. All of them were engineers.
They changed their profession after losing their jobs during Covid.
They used to go to rich societies and rob the residents.
Here is their photo.
Where were these people when Aditya was kidnapped?
They were in Varanasi attempting a robbery.
Good, one case is closed.
But we are back to square one
in Aditya Shenoy's kidnapping case.
How are Kirti and Ashwin?
Ma'am, they've filed for divorce.
Kirti has quit her job and Ashwin has changed jobs.
And what about Nisha?
Ma'am, we are watching her.
She did not try to buy drugs again.
But she's very depressed.
When the house is on the verge of breaking,
then the biggest wound is made on a child's mind and heart.
It's been two months.
A child has died,
but we are not able to
give justice to him and his family.
Ashwin.
How long will you remain sad like this?
Get up. Let's go and watch the match.
You…
My Aditya…
I'm not able to forget it.
One thing has been bothering me since the beginning of this case.
There was a robbery.
But only small things were stolen.
Like watches, flower vases, antiques.
They just picked up what they saw.
It didn't matter if it was expensive or not.
What are you trying to say, ma'am?
Maybe the person who did the robbery
and the one who kidnapped the boy were two different people.
Keep an eye on the maid of the house
and the society guard.
I have a feeling that we are missing something really big.
Someone is very closely involved in this.
We checked Tamanna's background.
She's 38 years old, but is still unmarried.
But she visits Ashwin's house frequently.
It was Tamanna who told us,
that Kirti has an affair with her boss, right?
Yes, ma'am. But that has not been proven.
Maybe Tamanna is showing us a completely different side of her.
That's possible, ma'am.
Ashwin also denied the affair.
He said that Kirti is frustrated with her boss.
She wanted to quit the job too.
What did Tamanna tell us
about not wanting to get married?
I did not marry because of my Dad.
My boyfriend Ankur has been after me to get married.
I'm not interested in getting married to anyone.
And after Adi, I've lost all interest.
And I've seen Ashwin.
He's not happy with his wife.
We're planning to sell our apartment in Goa.
We have an offer of ten million for it.
Let's go.
Hey, stop.
Stop.
-You're late in running away. -Move!
Why did you do all this?
Why did you kill him?
The suitcase, in which we found Aditya's body,
was purchased from Nagpur, right?
Everything was captured in the CCTV footage.
Quickly tell us, why you did all this?
Ashwin was trying to woo Tamanna with all his money.
We're planning to sell our apartment in Goa.
We have an offer for ten million for it.
Both the father and son were keeping my Tamanna busy.
What, then?
One day I kidnapped his son,
and killed him.
After killing his son Aditya, I thought
everything would be fine.
But Ashwin and Tamanna got even closer.
I can't even leave her, Tamanna.
If you hold the rope too tight,
then your hands will get bruised.
That's why I killed Tamanna too.
Tamanna is alive.
Call the ambulance, quickly.
Ankur.
Tamanna is our eyewitness now.
We are finding the other evidence too.
We have found
some unknown fingerprints at Ashwin's house.
They will match with you, for sure.
And we've recovered the stolen goods from your house.
We often share our financial conditions with others.
Ashwin also shared his condition with Tamanna.
He told her how much he was selling the Goa house for.
Ashwin spoke to Tamanna about money matters.
But he never told her how troubled he was
regarding the money matters.
We should be careful about
what we discuss with people
and what we do when and where.
Crime always knocks before entering.
Small as it may be, you're certain to sense it.
Listen to it.
And think twice before you take a step.
