(firecrackers exploding)
What is this?
Why don't you let us be in peace at least on Diwali?
How many times should we tell you not to stick these papers all over?
There should be no cars parked in front of the fire exit.
But no one cares.
What do you mean?
Should we park our cars on the street because you tell us?
I am sure you are aware, madam.
There are fire exit issues in our apartments.
Who says there are issues? Do you know there are?
Being the Head of the Committee,
your indifference to safety issues will do no good, madam.
Hey! Enough. That's enough. Stop it now.
Madam, actually--
An apartment with so many issues needs a better watchman.
You can go.
Get going now!
- Don't spoil my mood today. - Madam... madam...
- How dare he answer me back? Idiot! - (woman 1) He is just a security guard!
(woman 2) Send him away first.
(panting)
(gasps) Oh, no!
(softly) Oh, no!
Oh, God!
He has followed me even here!
(tense music)
(gasps)
Rishi... Rishi! Here's your pup.
- I don't want this. - Hello!
I want a real pup.
So fast! So, who has got angry here?
Me!
You?
Wait.
Here. I have something that will cool you down.
Come here.
What is it, buddy?
- Mom refuses to buy me a pup. - Hmm.
It's his birthday. Why don't we get him one?
Who will take care of it?
Listen, listen.
Only for this birthday. And only this time.
Ask for something else. Hmm? Anything.
Hmm...
- Quick. - Okay.
I... I want a baby sister.
Uh, Mr. Subbarao's dog has birthed four pups.
- (laughing together) - Let's go and get one.
- Naughty fellow... - Where is my mobile?
(doorbell ringing)
(door screeches open)
What? Why are you here again?
- (gasps) - (ominous music)
Hey, hey, what are you doing?
(woman) Hey, hey...
Hey! Who are you?
(thuds)
(giggles)
- Rishi... - Rishi!
Why do you want my police ID?
Because no one can touch us when we have this.
(tense music)
(drips)
(eerie music)
(shelf door creaks)
(gas hisses)
(oven beeps)
(eerie music continues)
(door screeches)
(microwave whirrs)
(Sneha) What will you call your pup?
- (lift dings) - I will call him Chocolate.
- Come, come. Let's go. - Chocolate?
(giggles)
(both giggle)
(ominous music)
(lighter sparks, crackles)
(explosions)
(people screaming)
(wire snaps)
(gasps)
(Sneha) What happened?
- Mom, I am scared. - Everything is fine. Don't worry.
- Hello... hello! - Don't be afraid.
What happened?
(sparks crackling)
- Mom! - Hello!
(explosion continues)
(fire alarm ringing)
(watchman coughing)
Come on! Come on, leave!
(fire alarm continues)
Open the door!
Come on. Quick! Move fast!
The fire is spreading.
Leave.
Fast!
(people clamouring)
(fire crackling)
(fire alarm continues)
Move! Move quickly!
Hey! Move!
(wire strains)
(beeping)
(metal creaks)
Hello! Is anyone here?
Please! Help us!
Hey, hey! Wait, wait.
My boy is trapped. Please help him.
- Please help us. - Please.
Go down.
Sir... Raghav! Leave.
Sir, give me the boy.
- My son... - Hand him to me.
Pass me your son. Do it!
Mom... Mom!
Mom!
Mom! Mom!
Dad! Dad!
(siren wailing)
(fire engine honks)
(watchman) Sit right here. I will go check on your parents.
Don't go that way. There is too much smoke.
Run this way.
(tense music)
(fire alarm continues)
(coughing)
(fire crackling)
(Raghav coughs)
(coughing continues)
(grunts)
(glass shatters)
(explosion continues)
(screaming)
(grunts)
(thuds, glass shatters)
(ominous music)
(ominous music rises)
(title music)
(newsreader) We are watching breaking news.
A devastating fire broke out in Godavari Hospital.
Twenty people have been confirmed dead in the incident so far.
There is a lot of suspicion surrounding this accident.
This tragic case is assigned to Commissioner Ajay,
along with Raghav and Devika from the Special Investigation Team.
(door screeches open)
There is no CCTV footage from the crime spot, no witness, no suspect.
There is nothing left, Aruna, except ashes.
What's your plan for dealing with this case, then?
Psychometry.
What?
Psycho... metry.
Psychometry?
What is that, Devika?
Psychometry is... like astrology.
Astrologers analyse you, and then based on your date of birth,
they predict your future.
Psychometrists touch a person
and explore their past through their energy.
Past... entirely?
Uh... no. Just traces of it?
So, what you mean is...
this boy will touch the bodies and tell you who killed them?
First of all, he is not a boy. Rishi.
(Devika) Ten years back, to escape from the fire at Maruthi Apartments...
(glass breaks)
...Raghav jumped out of a window along with Rishi.
(thuds, glass shatters)
Because of the impact of the injury to Rishi's head,
he developed a superpower called psychometry.
(suspenseful music)
When Rishi touches a person or a thing for a few seconds,
he can see their memories.
I hope his abilities will prove useful in this case.
(electrifying music)
(music builds)
What's stopping you then?
(sighs)
I think it's better Rishi give us the lead before Raghav gets here.
(intense music)
(cop 1) Sir...
(cop 2) Sir...
(intense music continues)
(both) Morning, sir.
(intense music builds)
(camera clicking)
(intense music fades)
(eerie music)
Are these the guys
who died in the Godavari Hospital fire?
The fire broke out after they died.
They were stabbed to death much before that.
In most cases, the dead are placed on a pyre for cremation.
But this guy cremated them by setting a hospital on fire.
He killed several innocent people.
Just find one important clue, Rishi.
We need to identify the culprit as soon as possible.
(eerie music)
(electrifying music)
(gasps)
Uh-uh.
Hmm?
(intense music)
(intense music continues)
(both gasp)
Seven... six...
I could see some numbers.
Numbers?
(sighs)
Before they died, each of them saw a distinct number.
What are those numbers?
(Rishi tsks)
Hmm.
Seven L...
- Six M... - Seven...
Hmm?
Aren't you noting them down?
Hmm...
- Six M and... - Six M...
Five S...
And five S...
Hmm... maybe these are their insurance file numbers.
Maybe they were killed for their insurance.
- Five S... Seven L... - From that perspective,
there could be so many patterns.
Hmm!
But that's the job of our investigators.
- What do you say? - Yeah.
"With great power comes great responsibility."
- Seven L... - That's what Uncle Ben keeps saying.
But I never understood the depth of those words.
I get it now.
In fact, I'm very... very happy. (chuckles)
- Well done, Rishi. Well done. - Don't be so happy.
- Do you know what those numbers are? - Hey!
(playful music)
What are these?
Seven L... Six M... Five S...
Why did I see them?
Can't you see something useful for once?
(Rishi) They are all underwear sizes.
I ask you for a lead, and you give me undergarment sizes.
- Hey! - Hey, stop!
I have seen something else too.
I saw a lady with a ring leave the room.
In fact, none of these three ladies have any rings.
Exactly! Maybe the one with the ring was the murderer!
Why didn't you tell me this earlier?
I don't know. I have no idea either.
Don't talk nonsense to escape.
- I will kill you. - (Raghav) Dr. Aruna...
- I swear-- - May I come in?
(knocks) Dr. Aruna.
(gasps) Raghav...
I don't have to thrash you.
You don't have to hide behind me.
(playful music continues)
You were proud of whatever you saw.
Go and tell him.
Shall I also tell him you got me here? Shall I?
(scoffs) Stop panicking and hide properly.
I will manage it somehow.
(door screeches open)
Hi, Raghav. Here you are!
Uh, I think the culprit is a psycho.
- (Aruna exclaims in frustration) - Killing the three was bad enough.
To cover his tracks, he set the hospital on fire.
When criminals want to hide something, that's what they do.
They do. I agree.
But this is very cruel.
I was talking about you.
About me?
What makes you so nervous?
What are you hiding? Huh?
I am nervous because...
This case somehow reminds me of the 10-year-old Maruthi Apartments case.
But I was the victim in that case. What makes you so nervous?
(metal clanks in distance)
In case, you are reminded of it too.
If you are so concerned about me,
how come you haven't been answering my calls?
Hmm. You went to the crime scene without me.
- What do we do? - You came here before I could.
So, you must have found some clues already.
What is it?
Have you found a clue?
No.
I have found a witness.
A witness?
Uh, is the witness a lady wearing a ring?
The witness is a man.
Then our first priority is to talk to him, right?
Shall we go? Let's go.
- That was a great escape. - It was.
Huh?
- Raghav! - Raghav!
- (Devika) Raghav, open the door! - I have found a clue right here.
(pounding on door)
Give me a second.
(door screeches open)
(metal screeches)
(chuckles nervously) Raghav, hi, hi.
How many times did I warn you not to get involved in these things?
You did. But I really saw something today.
A ring.
I saw a lady with a ring.
Really?
Why didn't the witness mention this to me?
He didn't?
Probably, he is holding back the truth from you.
Oh!
By the way, a burnt body,
a body from an accident
and a body from a suicide.
Which of them do you find more friendly?
Why?
Those three used to be in this cabin before you.
Why don't you make friends with them?
Hey, Raghav! Raghav! I won't do this again, Raghav.
Raghav, please open the door, Raghav, Raghav...
Stop calling me by my name first.
Anna, Anna!
Brother. Brother.
(echoes) Brother!
(vehicles honk)
(Raghav) Stay calm and tell me what happened there.
I am a health insurance agent, sir.
There was a client in Room No. 702 whose request was approved.
I went to collect their documents.
GODAVARI HOSPITAL
- Sir, I just came to the hospital. - (woman giggling, laughing)
- Hey... - Sir?
- Hey... - Sir, let me call you back.
(woman continues laughing)
(suspenseful music)
(giggles grow louder)
- (stabs) - Hey...
(liquid splashing)
(fire crackling)
(gasps)
(woman continues giggling)
Hello, hello, hello! Hello, is there no one around?
Sir, what's the matter?
Some mad woman is setting the hospital on fire.
- Send everyone out quickly! Move, move! - Come fast!
(people screaming)
All of you run outside. Run outside.
(suspenseful music fades)
What happened to your leg?
In my hurry to escape from there...
Why didn't you inform us until two hours after the fire?
I assumed someone must have already notified you, sir.
But I couldn't save anyone, sir.
I feel very guilty about it.
(keyboard clicks)
(Raghav) Our primary suspect... Annapurna.
As per the nurse's information,
she was hospitalised 3 months ago for chronic depression.
But she was very violent.
In fact, she would chase others around threatening to kill them.
(Raghav) Despite their best efforts, the doctors couldn't cure her.
(flesh squelches)
and no one settled her hospital bills.
They decided to send her away the following day.
- She didn't like that. - (woman) Hey...
That's why she created chaos there.
After stabbing two patients to death, she stabbed herself and died.
(eerie music)
That's all we have for now.
Okay, Raghav...
before the press comes up with questions,
why don't we get the statement ready and then call them?
Sure, sir.
- But, Raghav... - Sir?
I agree that a special team got involved.
But don't you feel this case got solved rather too quickly?
Maybe I just got lucky, sir.
Excuse me!
Hmm?
I feel we should take some time before we release a press statement.
Why?
We have all the evidence, right?
We only have information. Not evidence.
I want to know certain things in detail.
What details?
Let me get some clarity. I will tell you with confidence.
If you don't have clarity, it's better to rely on those who do.
Get it?
(breathes in deeply)
This case is very similar to the Maruthi Apartments case.
(music intensifies)
(tsks)
Devika!
Based on the statement of a single witness,
closing the Godavari Hospital case
like the Maruthi Apartments one is not right.
(loudly) Why do you have to bring in that case now?
Huh?
Because they are very similar!
Almost parallel.
(scoffs, sighs)
The majority of the deceased are women.
They used the fire accident to cover up their actual crime.
They buckled under public pressure even back then.
You know it better than me.
Shut up, Devika!
What do you mean?
Did I not investigate that case properly ten years ago?
Is that what you are saying?
I wasn't trying to put you in a spot, Dad.
The more clarity we get the better.
The victims' blood was found on the suspect's clothes.
We don't need stronger evidence than that.
Raghav, call the press.
Sir...
(vehicles honk)
(Raghav) The Godavari Hospital fire case has been concluded.
A patient named Sri Purnima, who was diagnosed with depression,
killed two patients and then committed suicide.
The evidence and witness are both clear.
We are closing the case.
(suspenseful music)
(suspenseful music fades)
(door creaks open)
(door slams, lock clicks)
(phone chimes)
(Megha) Hey...
(panting)
(Megha) Hey...
(Megha) Hey! Stop!
Hey...
(huffing)
(intriguing music)
(music intensifies)
(grunts)
(Megha) Hey...
(pants, grunts)
(Gautam) I hear everyone say the Godavari Hospital case is solved,
and I thought you must have worked some miracle.
So, it was underwear sizes that you saw.
Hey, stop stretching it.
At least, I went to the lab and checked.
Oh, you did.
I expected you to find the murderer like James Bond,
but all you saw was the underwear sizes of the dead.
(ominous music)
Hello... hello!
Are you there? Hey?
Hey!
It was you who saw them, and why are you scolding me?
Damn!
I saw them by mistake.
But this guy? He saw them deliberately.
Who is that?
- (violin playing) - How many of you were there?
I don't know, man.
A little more time, and I would have seen much more.
Damn! Then Raghav appeared.
Really? How did you manage then?
- You deserve a lesson. - Didn't he say anything to you?
As if I would stay until he said something.
I was smart enough to escape.
Going to such places is a crime in itself.
And then how do I tell Raghav that I saw the underwear?
- Damn my bad luck! - (Gautam laughs)
You should have told him about everything you saw.
He would have thrashed you until you lost yours.
Why are you suddenly silent?
Who is it this time?
Hey!
Are you there?
Wait for the next time.
I will see something that would surprise everyone.
Aren't you talking about bra sizes?
- Hey, you-- - Stop right there!
Or else, I'm going to kill you!
Huh?
(clicks tongue)
You think it's exciting to watch girls without them knowing, right?
I saw nothing.
Really?
Yeah.
You confessed it yourself. Watch this.
(Rishi) But how do say it?
That I saw the underwear?
Oh! This is a clear confusion.
It wasn't me who saw you in the washroom.
I never mentioned the washroom.
- You... pervert! - Hey...
(electrifying music)
Remove your hand! Idiot!
Your eyes are full of perversion.
Trust me. I saw nothing.
I don't even know the meaning of that word.
(Rishi) But how do I say that I saw the underwear?
Damn my bad luck!
Sir...
Don't trust her words, sir.
Sir, sir...
Sir, I am innocent. Don't take her words for granted.
Sir! Sir!
- It's over, sir. - Here.
It is a false allegation, sir.
Sir, why are you looking into your phone?
Please tell her, sir.
Uh, sir...
(grunts)
Shut up and sit. Idiot!
Nice, dear. It's well written.
You're used to filing police complaints, right?
Nothing like that, sir.
I was kidding.
You can leave. I will take care of it.
- Sir... - Thank you, sir.
False allegation, sir.
(indistinct chatter on walkie-talkie)
Having someone arrested without any real evidence is unfair.
The day they release me after realising their mistake...
I remember your face!
I will come looking for you,
and I... I... er... uh... I will see your end!
Is a girl's complaint enough, sir?
How can you arrest a college student without any proof?
Huh?
What, Rishi?
Will you ever change?
- Hmm? - Oh, my! He has recognised me.
- No change? - Sir?
Huh?
Do you know him, sir?
How can I not know him?
- All the police stations know him. - (whistles a tune)
He is prominent in all the college clashes.
- Call the central office and inform Ms. Devika about him. -Okay, sir.
- (cop 1) She will take care of the rest. - (cop 2) Okay, sir.
Sir! Sir, sir, sir! Sir, don't do it, sir.
- Sir, sir, sir... - Don't let him stop you. Call her.
Sir, I am happy right here, sir.
Sir, sir... please, sir.
(Rishi yelps)
(Devika) How many police stations are left in the city?
(whistling)
It feels like a flashback, doesn't it?
- Hey... - Hmm?
You won't tell Raghav, will you?
What? About the case or the numbers?
The numbers and the case. Both.
Forget everything.
Delete it from your memory.
Shift+delete, shift+delete, shift+delete. Okay, bye.
(professor) Take a look, sir.
The CCTV footage clearly shows Rishi jumping over the wall.
How can he be in the top five without even attending classes?
I'm sure he sneaked into the staff room and stole the paper.
(Das mumbles) Jobless idiot.
Only 30% attendance?
Three backlogs from the first year!
Uh, yes, sir. He is totally useless.
Being useless is tolerable, sir.
He shouldn't spoil the others.
In that case, he shouldn't be stepping into our college at all.
(exciting music)
(crowd cheering)
Why are the students screaming?
Hmm? Rishi must be here, sir.
- Hmm! - Huh?
(huffs)
Hey!
Our maths sir seems to think of you all the time.
Hmm? Why?
Go to the staffroom. You will know why.
What is it again?
No idea. But I think this is your last day in college.
Huh?
(indistinct chatter)
Hello, everyone! She is Megha.
She has joined our college today.
Please take her into your group.
- Okay, students? - Megha?
Hmm.
Who must be the maths teacher here?
Uh, is it the guy who's asleep?
Huh? This guy!
- Or is it that madam? (tsks) No, no. - He is from the same college?
But they referred to him as sir, so it can't be a lady.
(Rishi tsks)
(Megha) Don't you even know who your maths lecturer is?
Uh-uh.
Hey! You?
You got out quite quickly.
It seems you're no stranger to the police station.
Look, withdraw your complaint.
Or I will sue you for defamation.
You won't be able to handle it. Your wish.
You think so?
Fine.
I will show this video to everyone in college.
Hey...
I don't think we are on the same page here.
When we are not, how could you sound so relevant?
(sighs) Oh, God.
I spoke wrong about myself,
but I was right about you.
- What? - (tsks)
How do I tell you?
- Actually-- - Hey!
- What is the discussion here? - Sir, sir, sir...
- Walk. - Sir, sir...
Sir, let go of me, sir. Sir, leave me, sir.
You were clearly at fault,
- and what were you explaining? - Let go of me, sir.
Why did you come to college on a Sunday?
I realised only after arriving here, sir.
That it was a Sunday.
Do I look stupid to believe whatever you say?
Go, get your parents.
I have no parents, sir.
I am an orphan.
(sentimental music)
But... that is not important, sir.
What is more important then?
Madam, finish the formalities. Let's expel him.
Sir, please, sir.
The exams are close, sir.
Sorry, sir. I won't misbehave again, sir.
I will not make any mistakes again. Please, sir.
You should have been wiser before.
But how could someone without parents know all of this?
- Sir-- - They died leaving you to us.
- Sir... sir... - Damn!
(tsks)
Damn!
(Professor Das) You should have been wiser before.
But how could someone without parents know all of this?
(melancholic music)
Hi...
It's the sports hour.
I wasn't sure if you got your kit.
(sentimental music)
- Do you remember me? - No.
Meher.
Two years back... same school.
Please take this.
What now? You won't come out even during the sports hour?
If you joined here mid-semester, I am sure you had messed up there.
(student) You are not as innocent as you look.
Hey! Why are you leaving so abruptly?
(sentimental music)
(student 1) Leave the college.
(student 2) If they find out you are my friend,
our parents will stop us from attending college.
(student 1) Get out of this college
(sobbing)
(gasping)
(gasping continues)
(fire crackling)
(screaming)
(judge) In the fire that took place at Maruthi Apartments,
after considering all the evidence,
this court finds the accused, security guard Harishchandra, guilty.
(music turns emotional)
- The case is closed. You can leave. - (both) Yes, sir.
To be honest, ever since I heard Rishi, I have been doubtful.
That lady with the ring. What about her?
Why don't we consider Rishi's version to be real?
No.
He still has a lot to learn.
Also, it was Rishi's first psychometry on dead bodies.
That's why his information was not concrete.
Maybe... he employed psychometry as he does it on objects.
That's why he wasn't confident.
He was uncertain.
Why do you call him uncertain?
Because when psychometry is used on people,
their painful memories or shocking incidents can be felt.
- Traumatising incidents? - Yeah.
But it's a different case with objects.
Memories are idle, emotionless and random.
Maybe...
the lady with the ring was a random person entering the room.
Uh-uh.
What if she was not random but a regular nurse?
(music intensifies)
Then it's clear.
None of this makes sense.
The case is closed and that's probably why you see no sense.
Are you taking Rishi's superpower seriously or the case?
Both.
But why are you not taking either seriously?
I take everything seriously.
From the day Rishi got his psychometric ability...
everything is documented here.
(intense music)
You made a note of everything since his childhood?
I told you. I take everything seriously.
You should have told me this earlier.
What about the case?
Why did you close it so fast?
I closed it after solving it.
More than this case...
I am stressed about the 10-year-old Maruthi Apartments fire case.
(eerie musical sting)
I know.
That very name has a disturbing effect on many.
(eerie musical sting)
How long will you just observe Rishi?
(intense music)
Until I find the right person who can bring out his psychometric ability.
(music continues)
And if I am not wrong, he has already met that person.
(music builds)
(both shout)
