HE WHO CAN ACCOMPLISH
BY ANY MEANS
LET HIM DISCHARGE THAT DUTY
‐ THIRUVALLUVAR
EAST COAST ROAD,
CHENNAI
Oh, God, no!
Dad!
Oh, dear!
Oh, dear!
Breaking news!
High Court Judge Mr. Srinivasan
was shot down and murdered brutally.
Around 5 a.m. this morning,
High Court Judge Mr.Srinivasan,
who had gone for a morning walk,
was treacherously murdered
by strangers at his ECR farm house.
How he was murdered,
who killed him,
or their motive has not been made
clear by the police department.
‐Another dimwit has arrived.
‐Who the hell are you, damn it?
‐Sir!
I'll skin you, damn it.
Throw him outside.
Sir, sir... just a minute, sir.
‐Oh, God.
‐Sir, sir!
There's been
such a tragic incident.
Who is behind this murder?
I have no comments at the moment.
Sir!
We've been waiting for an hour.
Please let us in.
The threat message on the judge's
phone, has it been sent for analysis?
Yes, sir.
The Police Commissioner has been
calling profusely since morning.
My ears are bleeding!
Didn't I ask you to
find the murderer?
Locate the severed head
of the deceased.
Sir, we're trying our level best.
Dear viewers, welcome to our show.
If this is the state
of a High Court judge,
then how do we expect them
to keep the public safe?
Until we get rid of
this corrupt government,
the safety of the public
will be at stake.
That's my opinion.
Can we count Chennai
among the safest cities?
We'll debate this matter
after a short break.
They're tearing us apart in TV,
magazines, newspapers and debates.
I'll do one thing and
transfer this case to CB‐CID.
Sir, please give us 10 more days.
We will get it solved. Trust us.
OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER
CHENNAI
Sir, the murder happened
around 5:30‐5:40 a.m.
Totally, 4 bullets were fired.
All the bullets have
an in‐and‐out point.
But we couldn't find any bullets
at the crime scene.
The peculiar and most confusing
aspect about it is that
the 4 bullets were fired
from 2 different guns.
The bullets on the left chest
are from an 8 mm.
A Raven type gun.
But the bullets on the right side
of the chest
were fired from an untraceable gun.
Post that, the murderer used
a surgical knife to sever the head.
It's a peculiar case
in recent history.
Sir, the judge was running
a business on the side.
A red colour car was spotted
at the time of the murder.
Other than that,
we don't have any other clue.
This was already explained on TV
better than you people.
Tell me something different.
We need to close this case
immediately.
Sorry to interrupt, sir.
ACP Pon Manickavel from Salem
is a great gun specialist.
Moreover,
he holds 5th rank
in the All‐India Range
Firing competition.
In 2012, the goverment selected
and sent him for IDA training.
He even won a gold medal
over there.
He's smart, brilliant and honest.
And he's extremely focused
in his duty.
If we speak to him,
we might get a clue in this case.
Then just call him.
Okay, sir.
‐ Hello.
‐Manickavel.
This is Commissioner Bala Murugan.
Hi, sir, how are you?
‐I'm good. How are you?
‐I'm doing very well.
Manickavel...
did you hear about High Court Judge
Srinivasan's murder?
I did, sir.
That's the only news on TV
since 2 days.
It's very complicated.
There are exit wounds,
but we couldn't find any bullets.
It's simple, sir.
Every bullet fired from a gun,
their exit distance can be calculated
leaving the body.
Sigma Shooting Technology.
An expert will collect the bullets
after its exit.
Manickavel, is this possible?
It's possible for the person
who knows the trick.
‐Okay, thank you, Manickavel.
‐Thank you, sir.
I think he's the right person
for this case.
Let's hand it over to him.
Sir, but there's a small problem.
Six months ago,
while he was investigating
a sensational case in Salem...
Such a rank holder!
What are you going to do
after quitting this job?
I'm going to herd cattle.
My instinct says
he's the right person for this case.
You better convince him.
Also make him understand
the importance of this case.
He's a police officer too.
He'll definitely understand.
We're meeting him tomorrow, okay?
Hello, sir.
‐Welcome, Manickavel.
‐Sir.
Please come.
Okay, fine.
Sir, this is Mr. Manickavel.
‐Sir!
‐Welcome, Manickavel.
Sit.
Balamurugan spoke about you.
‐Impressive track records.
‐Thank you, sir.
We're under immense pressure.
You have to solve
this case quickly.
Okay. sir.
I want full freedom in this case.
There will be
no political interference.
I personally assure you.
I'll take care
of the political interference.
I don't want any disturbance
from our department.
I will be myself.
Okay, Manickavel, go ahead.
Chidambaram will introduce you
to the special team.
‐Good luck.
‐Thank you, sir.
Hey, didn't you join the force
through recommendation?
How did you manage to get
into the special team?
Obviously, special recommendation.
‐Sir!
‐Good morning, sir!
He's Inspector Peruvalathan.
He's been following this case
since the beginning.
He'll be very helpful to you.
Very smart.
He's equal to 10 people.
He's Inspector Nandakumar.
He assisted in
the Tindivanam murder case.
He's Inspector Rajagopal.
For now, I just need two officers.
Sir, 10 people from this team
have been suggested
by the Commissioner.
For what?
I thought he's equal to 10 men.
You two follow me.
Damn, they ditched us.
Looks like special recommendation
got jacked.
Sir, the judge used to wake up
at 5:30 a.m. every day.
Yoga and meditation at 6:45 a.m.,
then, at 7 a.m.,
he goes off to play tennis.
Later, he goes for a walk
on the beach.
‐And then‐‐
‐What did you say your name was?
Peruvalathan.
Shall we continue
after a cup of tea?
Sir?
I'll freshen up and speak to you.
Sir.
Peruvalathan, sir.
Oh... that's good.
‐This tea sucks.
‐Sir?
Can't you find a good place
for tea?
Just being muscled
like Baahubali isn't enough.
Try to attain his wisdom too.
Sir, we're getting late to leave
for the judge's residence.
Hey...
we're going there to convey
our condolences, not to save him.
We can get there at our leisure.
Sir?
‐Special recommendation?
‐Yes, sir.
Settle the bill for this.
This is new.
The department is not used to this.
‐Hey, hey. Follow us.
‐Okay, sir.
‐Tell me, Anbu.
‐Where are you?
I'm heading to the crime scene.
Oh, you're with an accused?
Sorry, I'll call you later.
Dear, it's our Inspector.
‐What is your name?
‐Peruvalathan.
‐Peru...
‐Peruvalathan!
It's Baahubali.
Fine, get home soon.
Bye.
Why there are so many people here,
like it's a gathering?
Clear the area.
Sir, sir, they're here
for our investigation
They've been taking our lives
in the name of investigation.
‐What did you say?
‐Nothing, sir.
‐What did you say, damn it?
‐Sir, I didn't say anything.
Hey, Baahubali!
Why are you getting worked up?
Ask everyone to leave.
Sir, we'll take their phone numbers
and Aadhar cards at least.
Why don't you take
their passports too?
Sir?
I've arrived without GPS.
Hope I'm at the right place.
[recites holy chants]
Scene of the crime!
I'm gonna photograph
the evidence
so that I'll get promoted sooner.
Sir, the judge used to go
for a walk here every day.
On the left corner, he used to
do yoga and meditation.
What's the price of the land
over here?
‐Sir?
‐Ma!
Sir. Sorry, sir.
Sir, I was trying to photograph
vital evidence.
Thought it might be useful to us.
I was going to create
a WhatsApp group and share.
I was thinking of nabbing the accused
as soon as possible.
Bloody hell,
I'm stuck with numbskulls.
‐Mr. Baahubali.
‐Sir.
We're done with the investigation
for the day.
You can leave.
We'll meet tomorrow.
Thank goodness I took my bike.
How long have you planned
to sleep hugging a book?
Why would I hug a book
once the exams are over?
Fine. I wasn't home yesterday.
Did you miss me?
You're right. If our parents were
here, it would've been better.
Sir has rejoined duty
after a long gap.
Didn't you miss anyone?
Shall I give you an idea
so that we don't miss each other?
An average‐looking
mini Anbarasi like you.
What?
And an awesome mini Manickavel
like me.
Oh!
Shall we prep for it?
‐The plan sounds good though...
‐Thank you.
...but can be executed
only after the exams.
Didn't you mention the same
last year too?
Is it? I forgot about that.
You better leave for work
right now.
He worked as a driver at
the judge's residence for 15 years.
Now he works here.
If we interrogate him...
Come on!
Sir, that's him.
Brother!
Others can continue
with their work.
‐Sir, I have nothing to do with it.
‐Shall we have a tea?
I'll get it right away, sir.
‐Name?
‐Narasimhan.
When was the last time
you saw the judge?
‐Tell me, dear.
‐Hello!
How was the dosa?
How... was the dosa?
You're asking me this now?
Obviously! You left
without saying anything.
Do you think this is a house
or a restaurant?
I'll make you starve tonight.
Bloody idiot! I'm break your teeth.
Hey, Baahubali! Hey!
Sir, when I questioned,
he's being arrogant.
Sir, I was right with my replies.
But he's beating me out of spite.
How dare you tell on me?
Go... go and check
if the tea is ready.
Go!
Sir, come on.
Sir, please come. Let's go.
‐Take this.
‐I don't want it, sir.
‐You're bleeding.
‐Sir, your tea.
Come on, have this.
‐Damn it!
‐Sir, don't get angry.
If they had given me 2 more days,
I would've solved the case.
He's totally useless.
‐Sir, don't get worked up.
‐Damn!
How long have you been working?
It's been 6 months, sir.
‐Sir, I don't want.
‐Take it.
Hey, what the hell is he doing?
Sir, I don't want it.
Sir, please listen to me.
‐Sir, please I don't need it.
‐For medical expenses.
Sir, be patient.
‐My ill fate I'm stuck with him.
‐Sir!
Advocate Ramachandran
is the judge's close friend.
He never does anything
without his consent.
‐Do you know the address?
‐Yes, I do.
‐Nanda.
‐Sir!
Okay, sir.
Give me the address.
Manickavel, sir,
if we deal this case in your style,
it will never work out.
I will tell you frankly, sir.
Someone about to confess
will defer due to your methods.
I don't mind
even if you take me wrong.
I did get offended.
You stay right here.
No, I didn't meet the judge
that day.
Sir. Sir, sir, I'm coming.
You should ask Inspector Rathnavel
for personal information.
1927...
1927...
I'm slogging here for the exams,
and you're sleeping peacefully.
You should keep your mind relaxed
a day before the exam.
Don't touch the books.
Come on, come over here.
‐Come closer.
‐Let go of my hand. You're always...
I can't remember these years
and events.
Is that so?
Fine,
tell me when is my birthday.
April 3rd.
Tell me what we did on that day?
We both went to Vinayagar Temple
on that day.
I was wearing a blue sari;
you wore a black shirt
and white pants.
After that?
After which, we had ice cream.
I remember everything.
‐How's that?
‐That's because...
I like you very much.
Like what you study.
It's fine to study what you like,
but how to remember Partition of
Bengal and Simon Commission?
What are you doing?
Simon Commission.
1927.
Simon Commission.
1927!
What about Partition of Bengal?
This is Bengal, and this is India.
It's 1905.
1905, Partition of Bengal.
Oh, God.
Now what do I assign to this?
India's atom bomb tragedy.
Ah, 1974...
Are you really prepping me
for the exam?
Of course, dear. Come here.
‐In 1974...
‐But there are more events.
We have more places to cover.
Get lost, you brat!

‐Anbu!
‐What is it?
Simon Commission.
Partition of Bengal.
Indo‐China War.
Mumbai blasts.
Ah, Bhopal. IIT inauguration.
Ah, Emergency.
India's atom bomb tragedy.
Kargil War.
I know where you're headed.
You go to your office,
and I'll go for my exams.
‐Okay.
‐Bye.
Why aren't you at work?
Sir, this is Peruvalathan.
I have that Royapuram Ravi
over here.
I'm out with my wife
for an important work
I'll call you later.
Being around his wife...
seems to be an important work.
He doesn't have to come over.
‐I'm gonna question him myself.
‐Sir, sir, sir...
Sir, why do you want to risk it?
Let's wait for him to come.
As if he's going to do anything.
We'll nab them
with great difficulty...
but when he arrives, we'll start
talking only after cup of tea.
‐Watch how I'm gonna handle this.
‐Sir, please wait.
Tell me.
Sir, it's not a big deal to lease
a shop at the fish market.
I hacked one guy's hand over there.
The judge witnessed that incident
and locked me up
with a non‐bailable warrant.
I got pissed off,
so I threatened to kill him.
Otherwise, I have
nothing to do with this case.
Fine, looks like
you didn't find the guy.
I wonder what kind of investigation
you guys carry out.
Hey, how dare you?
Do you think the police are a joke?
Sir, don't raise your hand
for no reason.
It won't turn out good.
What do you mean?
What do you mean by that,
damn it?
Come on, tell me, damn it!
Tell me what will go wrong.
‐Tell me, damn it.
‐Sir, don't hit me.
‐Hey, I'm gonna‐‐
‐Sir, please don't.
Sir, I sent it on our WhatsApp group
by mistake.
Give it to me.
Sir, don't hit me. Sir!
‐Hey!
‐Hey!
What are you doing?
Take your hands off him.
Out.
Get out!
Don't you dare touch anyone
in regards to this case anymore.
They brought in cattle herder
and expect him to solve a case.
I'm gonna resign from this team.
To hell with everyone.
Hello!
Sir, is Peruvalathan at the station?
I am his wife.
Peruvalathan sir left long ago.
Sir, he was supposed to pick up
our daughter from school.
Sir, his wife is on the phone.
I have no clue what happened.
I've been trying to call him
for a very long time.
Tell me, madam.
This is the DC speaking.
Sir, he said will be picking up
our daughter from school.
It's been two hours.
He hasn't returned yet.
I tried calling his phone.
It's ringing,
but he isn't answering.
I don't know what to do now.
I'm really scared, sir.
It's nothing.
I've sent him on an errand.
He'll be home anytime.
Don't you dare touch anyone
in regards to this case anymore.
Hey, how dare you
lay your hands on me?
I'll make sure you pay for it.
Daddy!
Daddy!
Uncle, please don't beat up my dad.
Please, uncle!
Brother, a police officer
beat me up.
We should make him pay for it.
Daddy!
Please don't beat my dad.
Daddy!
Daddy!
Daddy...
Daddy.
Isn't this the hand
that touched my brother?
Give that to me.
Oh, no! Please let my dad go.
Hereafter, they'll think twice before
laying their hands on Royapuram's men.
Hey!
This conflict is between brothers.
You better leave!
Everyone in the department
is like a brother to me.
You keep playing over here.
Uncle will play for a while too.
Uncle! Uncle!
Inspector Marikattan
Adhiyaman Peruvalathan.
Daddy, Daddy.
Is it hurting too much, Dad?
Nothing to worry about, dear.
A police officer should know
when to fight and when to be calm.
Sir.
‐Peruvalathan.
‐Sir.
Should a police officer
work for the department?
Or work for the public?
Sir, isn't both the same?
There's a huge difference.
‐I don't understand.
‐You'll understand eventually.
OFFICE OF THE ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER
CHENNAI
Sir!
Who are we meeting today,
Peruvalathan?
‐Wait, hold on.
‐What's up with him?
Let's discuss it over tea.
‐Fantastic tea!
‐Thank you, sir.
Only now you've come to my terms,
Peruvalathan.
Sir, you can continue
calling me Baahubali.
Fine...
that advocate mentioned about
an Inspector Rathnavel the other day.
Yes.
Shall we meet him?
Why is the door locked?
‐Hey, Muthu.
‐Yes, sir.
Give our number
to the granny next door.
‐Ask her to call when he is home.
‐Okay, sir.
Sir, this is Inspector Rathnavel.
I was told you came home to see me.
What is the matter, sir?
Nothing much.
Just a general inquiry.
Are you free to meet?
I'm a little busy
with personal work.
‐Let's meet tomorrow. No problem.
‐Thank you, sir.
Just for a day's fun,
I have to beg you the entire week.
‐Playing hardball?
‐Yes.
Shalu, let's meet tomorrow.
‐What happened?
‐Please let's meet tomorrow.
Go.
What is it, Rathnavel?
Why are you calling back?
I got a threatening message
from an unknown number.
‐What is the message?
‐It says, "Enjoy your last hour."
Sir, I'm really scared.
You're a policeman.
Don't be scared.
‐Where are you?
‐I'm at Hotel Pallazzio.
Okay, stay right there.
I will come.
Rathnavel, where are you?
I'm heading
towards the parking lot.
Okay, I'll be right there.
Sir, where are you?
I'm heading towards the parking lot.
Come soon.
Sir!
‐Not able to reach him.
‐Sir, look over there.
Peruvalathan!
Sir, I am okay, sir.
I am okay.
What's happening, Manickavel?
We never got a resolution
in the judge's murder.
Now a second murder.
That too from our department.
Do you think there's a connection
between these murders?
I don't think so, sir.
These two murders were done
by two different people.
Manickavel,
I hope you understand the pressure.
‐Higher officials‐‐
‐Sir, I need more time.
I'll submit a clear report.
Sir, if the murderer made his kill
despite the fact
that we're going to be here,
I'm sure there's a link between
the judge's murder and this.
Both were done by different people.
No, sir, I think
it's the same person.
I think he has been following us.
Sir, that too during the bomb blast
those 3 and 1/2 minutes,
all CCTV cameras on the floor
were hacked to run in a loop.
‐Analyse Rathnavel's phone.
‐Sure, sir. Right away.
‐Have you recovered the files?
‐Yes, we've recovered it.
‐Good.
‐Thank you, sir.
But something
is seriously wrong, sir.
Someone has used this mobile phone
48 hours ago.
And they've stolen the data
from it.
Can you trace the device
on which it was copied?
Sure, sir.
It's Sony Vaio, 2015 model.
IP address?
Sir, we got his house address
from the IP address.
It's an independent house
at KK Nagar 2nd Street.
You take the force along.
I'm on my way.
Freeze!
Sir, he's not budging.
Sir, when we were inquiring
at the travel agency,
I saw him following us.
It's not only at the agency.
Tea shop.
The judge's house.
The inspector's house.
You've been following us
everywhere.
I know
that you're not the murderer.
Tell me.
Sir, sir, sir... sir
Hey, get lost!
‐Sir, sir...
‐Out!
Sir!
Sir.
Hey!
He's belongs to our department too.
Undercover.
He's dealing with the same case.
Buy him tea,
and tell him I apologised...
and relieve him.
‐Did you see that?
‐Yes, sir.
Our men don't trust us.
It's that police instinct.
Sorry, you don't look
like a police officer.
‐That's why he's an undercover cop.
‐Shut up!
I met the DGP last evening.
Morning, sir.
Manickavel, meet Mr. Kailash.
Undercover unit.
We met already, sir.
Yes, sir.
As it's a high‐profile case,
few things were decided by
the higher‐ups without our knowledge.
I hope you understand.
Tell me, Kailash.
Sir.
These pictures were hacked
from Rathnavel's phone.
The third person in this picture
is Arjun K. Maran.
He's a successful businessman.
He might have something to do
with these murders.
Maybe he is the next target.
So, if we question him personally,
it will help us to take this case
to the next level.
So, then contact him immediately.
We did try contacting him...
but right now he's in Germany.
So, what's next?
He'll be back on Monday.
‐We'll talk to him in person.
‐Okay.
Sir, you haven't been handling
this case with seriousness.
What I meant is
you're serious about it...
but if you handle it more seriously,
it'll be better.
Actually, sir, if you're sincere,
we can nab that killer in a day.
Oh, no, sir.
What are you doing?
Sir, what's wrong with you?
What is it DC sir?
Your wife wanted you to be the first
to hear the good news that she passed.
I've been calling and texting.
There's no response from you.
Is sir too busy to respond?
Anbu...
there's a birthday party.
Get ready soon. We'll go for it.
Why there's no response from you?
As if you responded to me.
Hey, weren't you very sure about
your results after the exams?
So, where's the surprise
in this matter?
That doesn't mean
you can't congratulate me.
Congrats.
I'll take a shower. You get ready.
I am not going.
It's the DGP daughter's birthday.
I promised him to bring my family.
Please let's go.
Remind me
to get a bouquet on our way.
As if the party is too important.
Thanks.
Is that all I am getting?
Don't you think it's too much?
A thanks is more than enough
for this cake.
One second.
Good morning, sir.
Seems like you were here
since last night.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Hi, sir. Good morning.
‐Hi!
‐Morning.
Sir, sorry.
He's got an appointment right away.
So, please don't take
more than 5 minutes.
Sir, the two people with you
in this picture are not alive anymore.
Someone has meticulously planned
and murdered them both.
Maybe you're the next target
of that killer.
Before we can arrest that killer,
we're here to give you protection.
Please try to understand
and cooperate with us, sir.
In Europe, they're comparing
Tamil Nadu Police with the Scotland Yard.
Look here.
This is from my birthday party
at Le Méridien.
There are 7 other people,
excluding me.
So, tell me, who's next?
With this evidence,
if we follow your stupid logic,
then tell me.
I'll tell my secretary
to give you their email IDs,
addresses and phone numbers.
Thank you.
Then what is your relationship
with the judge and this inspector?
Now, look here.
Srinivasan was my legal counsel
before he became a judge.
And I met that inspector
through Judge Srinivasan.
I've seen him only 2‐3 times.
Anyway...
thank you, sir.
What about the inquiry?
We didn't get any clue
from his side.
So, what's the next plan?
Pon Manickavel, are you there?
I'll keep you posted, sir.
‐Make it quick.
‐Sure, sir.
‐Fine, then.
‐Thank you.
Hey, why are you rushing?
Sir, I've informed everything about
Maran's meeting to the Commissioner.
As he's got political influence,
as per
the Commissioner's instructions,
we're planning to give full protection
to Maran without his knowledge.
I mean this evening...
‐Hey. Hey!
‐...after we nab the killer‐‐
After nabbing the killer?
Are you going to hang him
to death tomorrow?
It's not that. There's pressure
from the department.
The Commissioner has asked
for a swift‐‐
Remember, 6 months ago, a watchman
was killed at your apartment.
‐What happened to that case?
‐Sir, what happened was...
Why are you stuttering now?
Watchman and that case.
Just because the deceased
was a judge,
a special team right away,
immediate investigation,
and a prompt report.
So, there's partiality
when it comes to the dead as well.
Sir, I'm not sure
what you're getting at.
That's right. You won't understand.
You will when you experience it.
How many are stationed
at the 1st Main Road?
Sir, there are 5 officers here.
Be alert!
Make gram vadas
instead of masala vadas.
Okay, fine.
‐What's that noise?
‐Isn't that a dead end?
‐Mosquitoes.
‐Three are stationed here, sir.
Not enough.
Ask 6 officers to be there.
Okay, sir.
There are 8 cops stationed
at the corner of 5th Cross Street.
Will you be late tonight?
There's an officer here who'll be
done soon, then I will come.
Bye!
‐Hello, sir.
‐Hello!
‐Come in, sir.
‐Have you blocked all the roads?
Yes, we have barricaded the roads.
‐Be alert.
‐Sir, we're wide alert.
‐Muthu?
‐Tell me, sir.
Ask them to reduce the volume
of the walkie‐talkies.
‐Brother...
‐Hey!
South, South‐West.
North, North‐West.
What will you do
if they jump from the sky?
Ask to nab them sooner.
It's getting late.
I'm longing for vadas.
Stop!
Don't shoot.
Catch him!
Sir! The suspect is escaping
from the beach side.
I repeat, I repeat. The suspect is
escaping from the beach side.
Sir, he got away.
Oh, shit!
‐Sir, I warned‐‐
‐Do you realise now why we warned you?
I don't know, sir.
I don't know what's happening.
Anyway,
you guys have to look after it.
Yes, Kailash here.
I got a threatening message
that I'll die in 24 hours.
What?
I need to meet Manickavel
right away.
Sir, do you have an appointment?
Tell him it's the Scotland Police.
Manickavel, if the press knows
about the threat to my life,
my share value will drop by 20%.
How much does 20% add up to?
Around Rs. 50 crore.
That's a big amount.
If it's 50
for just threatening your life,
what if they kill you?
No, just for conversation.
Don't play around, Manickavel.
This company is nothing without me.
Total Rs. 500 crore loss.
Rs. 500 crore.
So, sir, isn't 20% of Rs. 50 crore
Rs. 10 crore?
Shall we crack
a small deal between us?
You give that Rs. 10 crore to me.
I'll make sure
you'll be safe without a scratch.
I will take care.
With extra care.
Even the Grim Reaper
can't touch your soul.
Sir, what are you thinking about?
I'm not asking for a share
in your profits.
Instead, I'm asking for a share
from your loss.
In my entire life
as a businessman,
you are the first who has asked
for a share in my loss.
I did stay sincere
after completing my IPS training.
Nothing great.
Six months ago,
I worked as an ASP at Salem.
There was a remarkable case.
I wasn't aware
it will turn my life upside down.
I get really outraged
looking at injustice.
And if it's happening in my area,
there's no space for anything
but action.
It's the same reward
for all the emotions.
But you're overreacting though.
Come on, take it all.
Hey, do you have an arrest warrant?
Warrants are for arresting humans.
But to hunt down
rabid dogs like you,
why do we need a warrant?
INTEGRATED COURT COMPLEX, SALEM
Sir, look what they've done to us!
Just look how they've messed up
our lives.
Sir, sir, just look at the state
of my daughter.
Oh, God!
Oh, God, my dear daughter!
They turned her into ashes.
My daughter used to work
in that sinner's jewelry shop.
She used to refuse
to go to work every day.
But I thought she was making excuses
to skip work and being lazy.
Only now I realised
that her boss at the shop
was harassing her all the while.
As that girl's body was burned,
we couldn't get the traces
of semen.
Maybe the accused burnt the body
with that intention.
Dear Lord, no mother
should endure my pain.
Owing to this...
people will be scared
to have a girl child.
The police have failed
to prove the crime
committed by the accused,
Modilal Seth.
So, this court
has let him walk free.
Oh, God, my daughter's murderer
has been let out without punishment!
As a mother, I'm outraged!
Oh, God!
Well done! Well done!
You just tore them apart.
Awesome.
Do you have a lighter?
Oh!
All the evidence you need is here.
You got to prove it legally now.
People like him
don't belong to this society.
Hey!
You'll be tarnished to dust.
‐Don't laugh.
‐Get lost.
Your death will be gruesome.
Listen, sir.
The person who burned and killed
my daughter
is walking free with a smile.
Please kill him, sir.
Sir, shoot and kill him!
‐Come to the party this evening.
‐Sure!
Shoot him down, sir.
Shoot him, sir.
Shoot him, sir!
Shoot and kill him!
Sir.
We reached home.
Why is there blood on you?
What happened?
Shoot him, sir.
Shoot him, sir!
Shoot and kill him!
‐I won't spare you!
‐Okay, sure we'll be there.
No!
This gun is of no use to anyone.
It's existence is moot.
No!
What is this, Mr. Manickavel?
I never expected this from an honest
and passionate police officer like you.
I understand your pain.
But all this
is a part of the service.
Sir, I didn't wear this uniform
for the sake of it.
I wore this 'cause I loved it.
The pain of removing it...
only I can realize it.
It's totally different in practical
compared to theory.
Nothing seems right.
I understand, Mr.Manickavel.
But take your own time.
Please think about it.
No, sir,
God gave me enough time to think.
You're taking this decision
based on emotions.
Just think about you and your family.
Such a rank holder...
what are you going to do
after quitting this job?
I'm gonna herd the cows.
Once I finished IPS training...
the moment of happiness when I held
the gun for the first time
that feeling...
I believed will last until I die.
My gun which was destined to kill
a thousand criminals...
became a reason to kill an innocent life.
That pain...
will haunt me until I die.
My wisdom and the lesson that
I did not receive from the IPS training
that one incident taught me a hard lesson.
So, I started playing my second innings
just for the money.
I wanna make millions, sir.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Won't we have a desires
to get a taste of your lifestyle?
What will be the size of this house?
Beach is right next to it,
and a swimming pool inside the house.
Sir, don't you wanna enjoy
this throughout your life.
Just trust me,
I'll take care of everything.
Sir!
‐Sir!
‐Morning!
Run the exterior camera.
The security detail is good.
Impressive.
Thank you.
Sure.
‐Okay?
‐Okay, thank you.
Sir, it's the Commissioner.
‐Hello
‐Yes, sir.
How is it going, Manickavel?
I will take care, sir.
Sir!
What happened, Manickavel?
‐Sir let's go.
‐Damn it!
Sir... no!
Sir...
Search the opposite building right away.
‐Okay, sir.
‐Fast!
Go fast!
Show me all the cameras pointing
at the opposite building.
Okay, sir.
‐Nanda, we've checked it thoroughly.
‐Sir!
Only the rifle is here.
‐You've done a great job, Manickavel.
‐Thank you, sir.
Sir, despite the fact
the security was tight.
Instead of getting closer...
they staged a sniper shot 900ft
from the opposite building.
Thank you, Manickavel.
Thank you.
Brother, I require the CCTV footage
from the mosque gate.
Manickavel, did you get the money?
I'm very sure that the money
will arrive on time.
I've sent you a video,
please have a look.
‐Well done, Kailash.
‐Thank you, sir.
Did you see the video?
I did, Manickavel.
It was him who killed the Judge.
Also it was him who killed
the Inspector in a blast.
And it was him,
who came to kill you at your house.
Also it was him on the sniper yesterday.
Take more money if you want...
kill that old man!
Fine, tell me what's your conflict
with that old man?
We had our differences in the business.
Don't worry, sir.
No matter where he is,
I'll bring him to you.
Relax!
"It's practically different
from what I had studied."
"Nothing is right, sir."
I Pon Manickavel...
do solemnly affirm that
I will bear true faith and allegiance
to the Constitution of India
as by the law established.
I am proud of my country.
And I'll always be faithful
to my Mother India.
Jai Hind!
"Won't we have the desires
to get a taste of your lifestyle?"
Did you go through the details
of the new hotel project?
Okay, thank you.
See you guys later.
Thank you.
Manickavel, my daily routine
must be boring for you.
Let's have a party tonight.

Sir, this old man's name is Nasrathullah.
His native is Nedumpalayam village
next to Ambur.
He used to run
a small leather business out there.
His daughter and son‐in‐law
died in an accident.
In that depression he lost focus
on business and failed.
The only consolation in this tragedy
was his grand daughter.
She worked hard and joined an
Engineering college in Chennai under merit.
She used to do part time jobs
during her education.
Hosting events at malls and hotels...
wedding receptions and working in Ad‐films.
She used that money to cover
her expenses for education.
In one such occasion,
Maran spotted her at an Ad‐shoot.
He tried to pursue her...
got her number through an agent
and started flirting with her.
Sent her many messages.
Initially she was patient, but later
filed a complaint with the police.
Since he was influential nothing happened.
So, that girl made use of #MeToo.
Tagged everyone from the Commissioner
till an ordinary police officer in a post.
That post went viral!
And Arjun K. Maran was arrested overnight.
But they came to know
during the investigation...
that his mobile phone
was lost at the hotel.
Also he blocked the sim and has
filed a complaint in regards to it.
Once it was proved in court,
that he didn't send those messages...
subsequently Maran was released.
Unfortunately,
shortly after these incidents...
that girl died in a train accident.
That's what Police records states.
But, sir...
must be wondering why this elderly
is set out to kill Maran?
As per my investigation...
I went to his native and investigated
few of his near and dear ones.
And then when I finally went to his house.
I found a diary written by him.
My son and daughter‐in‐law
died in an accident.
I incurred a huge loss
by not focusing on the business.
I was almost on the verge
of killing myself.
Grandpa,
please don't leave me behind.
Grandpa, please get down.
Grandpa,
please don't leave me behind.
That's when my grand daughter,
saved me and gave a new meaning
to my life
Grandpa!
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"I ruminate 'bout you
without sleeping late in the night"
"so does the moon,
which stares back at me"
"my desire is to see you scale the peaks"
"only then my soul
will depart this world"
"you're my mother of love"
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"Grandpa!"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"paintings will come
to take lessons from you"
"flowers will gather and bloom
one like your shadow"
"through your magical eyes"
"I followed you turning into your mother"
"followed you"
"I'm short on words 'O' my dear"
"I'm just an ordinary disciple of you"
"the touch of your precious hands,
turns the sand into gold"
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
In order to keep in touch
with me everyday...
she bought a phone for me,
from her first month's salary.
Hi grandpa!
Why did you spend so much, dear?
It was not necessary.
Grandpa, didn't you say
you wanted to see me everyday?
Now you can see me everyday
on video call.
Why are you coughing, grandpa?
Nothing much, it's the cold.
I hope you're taking
your medicines on time.
Yeah, I've been taking them on time.
‐I'll top the class, grandpa.
‐That's great, dear.
Fine, when are you coming home?
I'll come down next week for sure.
‐Who is that?
‐Just a minute, grandpa.
Maran after getting out of the prison,
went crazy over my grand daughter.
He sent his men...
they beat up my grand daughter and
took away right in front of my eyes.
Let go of me!
I was baffled and went to
the Police station.
Sir. Sir... please have a look at this.
few people took away my grand daughter,
while she was on phone.
When I tried calling again,
it says switched‐off.
Not sure what happened to her.
Please, please.
No one respected my plea
neither gave a resolution.
Two days later,
I saw my grand daughter as a corpse.
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"You're my precious"
"You're my precious"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"You're my precious"
"You're my precious"
"I ruminate 'bout you
without sleeping late in the night"
"so does the moon,
which stares back at me"
"my desire is to see you
live long and happy life"
My grand daughter was the only reason
for my happiness in life.
When she passed away...
I was clueless in what to do?
I lost faith in law, justice and integrity.
The people who were the reason
for my grand daughter's death...
I wanted to avenge them
with my bare hands.
Before killing these men...
he tried buying guns illegally in Salem.
And was caught by the police.
Nasrathullah was locked up here
for buying a gun illegally.
One of his cell‐mate
was sentenced to death.
He was punished.
Another cell‐mate was Bhoominathan.
Just this last week,
he got out of the jail
If we try and catch him...
or if we can find the details
on the second gun in Judge's murder case
we can close this case.
Good job, Kailash.
‐Karthick are the papers ready?
‐Ready, sir.
Sir, construction work is on
as per the schedule.
But only the interior work
is getting a bit delayed.
I've already warned them about it.
Hello, sir!
This project was supposed to
get over 3 months ago.
‐Why is the delay?
‐Sir, it's like...
Sir!
Stay inside, until I say so.
Sir, come on, come on.
Come on, come on...
There are glass pieces inside his abdomen.
It can be removed only after a surgery.
it's quite critical though.
Please put your signature
on this consent form
Doctor is he in danger?
Sorry, I can't say anything now.
We will let you know after the surgery.
‐Hello!
‐Arjun K. Maran, here.
Yes, sir, Dr. Chandrashekar here.
Sir, patient is seriously ill now.
We will do our best.
I don't care about the expense,
he should be saved.
Let me know if you need doctors
from abroad.
I'll make arrangements immediately.
Okay, sir.
Sir. Good morning, sir.
‐Where is he?
‐At 2nd floor, CCU. ‐ Let's go.
Sir!
How is he doing?
The surgery is in process.
They're stating it's quite critical.
How can you send him in,
without any back‐up or security?
How did it happen?
Sir, one minute.
Sir, Manickavel himself
is responsible for his state.
What are you saying?
When he went to Arjun K. Maran's house
in regards to Judge's murder case...
he discovered that something is fishy.
As he has high level political influence...
we couldn't force him for a statement.
So, Kailash placed a bug in his house
without his knowledge.
When we heard their conversation...
we learned that there's a 4th person
involved in this case.
When we were clueless about the 4th person.
Sir, if we wish to know
who that 4th person is...
Arjun K. Maran should trust us blindly.
I have a plan.
In order to spook him,
Manickavel sent him a threatening message.
Arjun K. Maran,
who got spooked by the message...
I need to meet Manickavel,
right away.
In order to be around him all the time...
he tried to win his trust
by taking a bribe from him.
"Give me that 10 crores"
Making use of this opportunity.
Manickavel was around Arjun K. Maran
all the time.
The shootout at that building
was staged by Manickavel.
Sir!
Post that incident,
Arjun K. Maran started trusting Manickavel.
Oh!
Thank you, Manickavel
It's okay.
It's okay.
This incident occurred
during one such instance.
Manickavel must know the clue
about the 4th person...
'cause he would've seen
the face of the killer.
Manickavel risked his life
for the sake of our department.
"Life is a testament of
downfall and rising"
"All you need is a push to rise high"
"Her breath is enough
to embark on this journey"
"my eyes are going dry
in the duress"
"to have a lap to sleep on forever"
"forever my heart will beat for you"
Don't worry, he'll be fine.
The entire department
is with you as a support.
Moorthy, I want your complete focus
on Manickavel's recovery.
And I want him back to work.
"Life is a testament of
downfall and rising"
He's right here, dad.
Listen, dad wants to speak to you.
Here, take this.
"All you need is a push to rise high"
"Her breath is enough
to embark on this journey"
You can't be as good cook as I am.
Oh, no!
Hey, why are you getting scared
for silly matters?
Hey!
Don't you dare come back
to the kitchen, get lost.
Thought at least today
I will have a good meal.
Get lost!
Sir...
‐Follow my instructions.
‐Okay, sir
Excuse me,
I need a favor from you.
Yes. sir.
I need the entire CCTV footage
from May 20th.
Sorry, sir, during the fire accident
that occurred last month...
the entire stock of CCTV footage
was destroyed.
We've already filed a complaint
at the Police station.
I'll tell you,
how to proceed further.
Okay, sir.
Sir!
‐A small information regarding this case.
‐Sir.
On May 20th an Ad‐shoot happened
at the same Hotel.
The production company will definitely
have the footage.
You track that down and get it immediately.
Definitely, sir.
Sir, hard disk.
Sir, this is Karthikeyan from Armory.
Tell me, sir.
Sir, we got the details on the
second gun used in Judge's murder.
It's M51, Taiwan gun.
It's quite a complicated gun.
As it's a front loading gun...
it's hard to use this gun,
without proper training.
And usually this gun is available
in the market.
As per our records, in 2008...
Govt. imported these guns from Taiwan.
Is it possible to trace the address
from the list of gun owners?
We don't have that data list with us.
Then, what else?
I think, there are chances
if we try the Delhi armory.
Delhi armory is the only source, where we
can find the details of the unknown gun.
Contact them right away.
Please get all my reports.
He holds an iPhone 10.
Diamond Edition.
Inquire at all the iStore dealers
in Chennai.
As that phone is a special edition...
the list of buyers will be less.
Sir, a total of 150 people
have bought this phone.
Purchase date.
Age wise.
Short list everything.
‐Hello.
‐Sir...
the date you've mentioned
we tracked down the number
in that hotel tower range.
‐Share the location
‐Okay, sir.
Sir, how come you're going alone?
I'm ready now.
‐Hi, Manickavel
‐You managed to save Maran
from my men.
‐if you can, try saving your wife.
Manick!
Manick!
Manick!
Let go of him, damn it!
Let go of him.
‐Anbu, go from here.
‐Let go of him.
Manick!
‐Anbu are you okay?
‐I'm okay.
Hey, tell me.
Who sent you damn it?
Manickavel!
Sir, who the hell is he?
What does he have to do with me?
The other day an old man
came to kill you...
today he has come.
We're clueless who will come for us next.
Sir, I can't blindly handle this case
without knowing its history.
Sorry!
Manickavel!
Only one person is the reason,
why these two came to kill me.
And the name of that person is,
Badrinath.
He's a successful businessman in State,
Central and International level.
Hi, please to meet you.
‐Hello.
‐So, what's going on?
The project is near completion.
Cheers!
He has the full support from
the Home Minister and the Govt.
I used to be his shell‐face.
But one day he said that will make me
a partner in a new 500 crore project
And asked me to come to Taj Hotel.
My pleasure, sir.
Yes! Yes!
He is psychotic, when it comes to women.
If he likes a girl...
even if she's ugly,
he'll go extremes to attain her.
He'll use them as long as he wants...
and then he'll kill them.
I live my life, King Size!
He bumped into a girl
at the hotel's elevator.
Okay.
Yeah, sure.
I'll call you back.
Hi, can I have your number?
During that meeting I came to know,
that girl got him upset.
Good Morning, Mr. Badri.
‐This the Judge and the Inspector.
‐Hi sir...
Sir, you had asked them to come.
They're here to help us.
Sir, you wanted to meet them
regarding our project.
Is something upsetting you?
I didn't want to lose out on the deal.
I went and spoke to the agent.
What is that girl's name?
It's Dhanya, she's a college student.
She's working part‐time.
Give me your price.
Sorry Sir, she's not the type
you're looking for.
I took her number from him
and spoke to her myself.
She turned that into a big issue
and got me arrested.
I was never humiliated
so much in my life.
With the help of Judge Srinivasan,
I got out easily.
Once I got out of the prison,
I wanted to kill her.
Let me go!
Please...
Please, sir, let me go.
Please, sir.
I beg of you, please let me go.
‐Please...
‐You got me arrested.
Ma!
That's when Badrinath called
and asked me not to kill her...
and to send her to him.
We arranged a corpse matching her
blood group and staged a train accident
Inspector Rathnavel helped us with it.
Hey, Inspector, not planning to go inside?
I'll go in first.
Judge, sir, please wait.
I'll show you something more interesting
Oh, god, let go of me.
Ma!
Once I was done with her.
I sent her to Badrinath.
Just like what he does with other girls...
he has her at his ECR godown
and torturing her sexually.
Help!
HELP!
Please someone save me.
Help!
‐Please let me go, I beg you.
‐Easy. Easy!
Please let me go, please
‐Please don't, please let me go.
‐Try this, you'll feel better.
Let go of me...
Don't! Please let go of me.
I passed out of IPS with a Gold Medal...
did you think, I did that to
work with criminals like you?
Don't!
I would've killed you the day I met you.
Badrinath!
This name...
I was waiting for this moment.
Manickavel, please don't kill me.
Don't!
Don't!
"I spotted a streak of fire"
"I set the same,
raging on to this forest"
"The forest burned down to the ground"
"We've left behind the footprint
of bravery"
"Blazing lightning has struck
the sea to rise high"
"The sky is becoming clear
with birds chirping songs of hope"
"I spotted a streak of fire"
"I set the same,
raging on to this forest"
Careful...
Careful!
Who is this girl
and what happened to her?
Fine, I'll go and get some water to drink.
Let go of me!
Please let go of me.
What happened?
I can't bear this, let me go.
Oh, no, nothing dear, don't be scared.
Nothing's wrong, don't be scared.
He's your brother, don't be scared.
Please let go of me...
‐...please.
‐have some water.
Take this, nothing to worry.
Don't be scared, we're here for you.
Sir.
Manickavel,
come right away to Badrinath's house
Home Minister is on the way.
Come as soon as possible.
Make sure you're in uniform.
Brother...
please kill them all!
Brother, please kill them all.
Please brother.
No other girl should endure
what I went through.
I should be the last one.
Please brother, kill them all.
Please brother.
Good Morning, Madam.
Badri!
Don't worry about anything.
Everything is under control
When will you nab that old man?
Listen Badri, we've made all the
arrangements to catch him.
We have full support from the Central.
You don't have to worry.
When will you nab the old man?
Badri, please try to understand.
When will you nab the old man?
Sir, ma'am is calling you.
Madam!
Murthy, why is it so difficult
to catch an old man?
Who the hell is he?
He's challenging to kill in 12 hours...
and have been texting
with a deadline.
Madam, this is a complicated case.
We're aware of it.
‐Actually we're trying to‐‐
‐To heck with your try...
didn't he kill earlier,
just like this after texting?
Yes madam!
Then?
Look here, Murthy...
what happened before in this case
or what will happen?
I'm not asking you to sketch me a plan.
He has challenged to kill him by tonight.
What action have you taken till now?
After the Judge's murder...
we have a special team under
Pon Manickavel doing an investigation.
What did you say his name was?
Pon Manickavel.
Ah... Pon Manickavel.
Where is he?
I wanna see him right now.
I've already informed him,
he's on his way.
Sir!
Badri, please relax.
‐Sir!
‐Mmmm.
Ma'am!
Madam, he's been handling the case
since the beginning.
Very brilliant, he cracked all
the loop holes in this case.
But he hasn't caught the old man.
I don't need to hear his history.
Manickavel, from now on
Tilak is in‐charge of this case.
It's enough you assist him with what
he needs in regards to this case.
‐Sir?
‐Hey!
Out!
Sorry.
So, you're that Pon Manickavel.
Why can't you just shoot an old man?
I'll nab that old man by tonight.
Just watch.
As I said earlier, those variants of guns,
we're not importing anymore...
'cause of its complicated handling.
Can I have the list of gun owners?
And is it still being used
by any of the officers?
No, I don't think so.
Wait, wait, wait!
I think there was a batch in 2009.
We've given M55 gun for training at IDA.
Okay, can I have that list of names?
I'll try and send you that, yeah.
‐Thank you.
‐Okay, okay, madam.
Welcome Madam.
‐One minute... uh.
‐Okay, Madam.
Hello!
Badri, hope the security is fine?
Everything is alright...
but the Police
no matter how much you pet the snake
it tends to bite back one day
that's the nature you know.
Badri any issues?
Even if there is a single small issue...
even if the God decides to appear
can't do squat to me.
Sir, there are security cameras
around the house...
and constables are posted
at every nook and corner.
There are drones flying
around the house...
spread across the area.
Sir, we have everything under control.
You don't have to worry about anything,
I don't trust your department...
but I trust you!
Thank you, sir.
Sir!
Sir, come inside.
Yes, cover him completely.
‐Sir, he's leaving.
‐Oh, God!
Come on quick, come on, come on.
From which directions was it fired?
it came from the rooftop, sir.
I think it's was from North East Direction.
‐Badrinath, please stay.
‐Sir, please stay.
‐Badrinath.
‐Sir, I have everything under control.
You don't have to worry about it.
Sir, I...
Sir, it's not safe outside
Ma'am, Mr. Badri is leaving.
Tilak, where he feels it's comfortable
you get there and protect him.
Yes Ma'am, I'm following him.
‐Okay, do it.
‐Sure ma'am.
Move, move, move everyone!
Sir, Bhoominathan who was in prison
works at Mani workshop at Royapuram
that's what his brother mentioned,
Sir, he hardly speaks to anyone...
but doesn't fail to pay 5 times,
and keeps it to himself.
Think harder, it's an important case.
Sir, even Pon Manickavel was our cell mate.
Did you say Pon Manickavel?
Yes sir, he's from your department.
Tell me, Kailash, sir
Did Pon Manickavel serve time
at Salem prison?
Yes, sir.
Asst. Commissioner Pon Manickavel
was careless during his duty
and was irresponsible
that made him responsible
for loss of a life.
According to IPC section 287
this court sentences him to
the prison for 6 months.
Hey, why didn't you mention this earlier?
Sir, earlier you just asked
about Nasrathullah.
Only now you inquired about
Pon Manickavel.
So, I've mentioned everything about him.
Tomorrow, if you ask about Palanisami,
then I will speak about him.
Hang up, damn it.
Guys seal this place right now.
‐Don't worry, sir, we're armed.
‐Okay.
Come on, guys!
Sir, where did he go?
‐Where is he?
‐Where's your boss?
Sir!
Tell me, tell me damn it.
Sir, sorry about what happened out there.
I have secured this place.
Hey... you fools!
Why are you guys here?
Go and protect everything upstairs.
I don't want your protection here.
Get out! Out!
Out!
Hello...
did you collect the details
of the cases dealt by Pon Manickavel?
Sir, when he was stationed in Targakapatti
of Salem district...
handled 7 cases in total
from which 4 were sentenced to prison.
Remaining 3 got out using their influence.
Give the contact numbers of those 3 people.
Sorry sir, those 3 died recently.
How did that happen?
In one case,
brother of the accused killed him.
In another case,
the accused got killed by his enemy.
And the third committed a suicide
Is there a co‐incidence among them?
All of them were shot dead.
Nothing else is common in the case.
‐Gun shot?
‐Yes, sir.
Can you mail me the death and
forensic report immediately?
Tilak, is everything okay?
Yes, sir, he has a perfect bunker
built in the basement.
Oh, God!
‐Nanda, cover him.
‐What's going on?
‐Sir, sir, sir, please go inside.
Don't come out, go inside quick.
We couldn't find any bullets.
It's difficult to use them
without proper training,
Pon Manickavel,
is a great gun specialist.
Everyone of them was shot dead!
Nothing else is common in the case.
You won't understand,
until you experience it
You... Manickavel?
How come you're here?
What's happening?
Has that old man arrived?
Huh?
Hey, say something.
I've just sent you the list of 2009 batch
from IDA training.
Please check you email.
Badrinath!
Even if the sinner tries to evade everyone...
can't escape the clutches of the God.
In one case,
brother of the accused killed him.
In another case,
the accused got killed by his enemy.
God won't appear
for anything and everything.
Instead sends avatars of himself.
And the third committed a suicide
If not...
he might appear as Manickavel too.
Hey, hey... please don't kill me!
Brother, please kill them.
Hey, hey, hey...
‐No!
‐Shoot them, sir.
"No other girl should endure
what I went through."
‐No...
‐Shoot them, sir.
Sir!
I did try to catch the old man alive...
but he...
shot down, Badrinath
and was going to shoot me.
As a precaution...
I had to shoot him down.
‐Brilliant job, Manickavel.
‐Thank you, sir.
‐Call the ambulance and clear the body.
‐Congratulations. Well done!
Sir, my name is Nasrathullah.
Sir, I got a threatening message
from an unknown number.
Okay, I'll be right there.
What's your car number?
Why do you have to do it?
I want to kill them with my bare hands.
Manickavel, from now on Tilak
is in‐charge of this case.
Badri, any issues?
Even if there's a single small issue...
there's my personal guest house for safety.
My underground lair,
I'll go there.
Even if the God plans to appear,
can't do squat about it.
Brother, I need a corpse with
O+ve matching his body type.
I've made all the arrangements
you might require at Mangalore.
Sister, you can continue your course
out there.
Thank you, brother.
What's wrong with you?
Best of luck!
Congrats, Pon Manickavel, sir
You cleverly erased all the evidence.
But that's not the end of the story.
I'll get hold of at least one evidence.
And arrest you before I retire
from the service.
Best of luck!
Keep gawking,
I'll buy you chickpeas.
It's true that Police Department
does its duty.
But who do they serve?
Is it for the department?
Or for the politicians?
Or do they serve the public?
I got a reply for that question
in spur of that moment
To which my conscience supports...
I'll lean towards it
in accordance to the truth...
in accordance to righteousness
I will perform my duties
until my last breath.
So it's just a beginning.
BY ANY MEANS
LET HIM DISCHARGE THAT DUTY
‐ THIRUVALLUVAR
EAST COAST ROAD,
CHENNAI
Oh, God, no!
Dad!
Oh, dear!
Oh, dear!
Breaking news!
High Court Judge Mr. Srinivasan
was shot down and murdered brutally.
Around 5 a.m. this morning,
High Court Judge Mr.Srinivasan,
who had gone for a morning walk,
was treacherously murdered
by strangers at his ECR farm house.
How he was murdered,
who killed him,
or their motive has not been made
clear by the police department.
‐Another dimwit has arrived.
‐Who the hell are you, damn it?
‐Sir!
I'll skin you, damn it.
Throw him outside.
Sir, sir... just a minute, sir.
‐Oh, God.
‐Sir, sir!
There's been
such a tragic incident.
Who is behind this murder?
I have no comments at the moment.
Sir!
We've been waiting for an hour.
Please let us in.
The threat message on the judge's
phone, has it been sent for analysis?
Yes, sir.
The Police Commissioner has been
calling profusely since morning.
My ears are bleeding!
Didn't I ask you to
find the murderer?
Locate the severed head
of the deceased.
Sir, we're trying our level best.
Dear viewers, welcome to our show.
If this is the state
of a High Court judge,
then how do we expect them
to keep the public safe?
Until we get rid of
this corrupt government,
the safety of the public
will be at stake.
That's my opinion.
Can we count Chennai
among the safest cities?
We'll debate this matter
after a short break.
They're tearing us apart in TV,
magazines, newspapers and debates.
I'll do one thing and
transfer this case to CB‐CID.
Sir, please give us 10 more days.
We will get it solved. Trust us.
OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER
CHENNAI
Sir, the murder happened
around 5:30‐5:40 a.m.
Totally, 4 bullets were fired.
All the bullets have
an in‐and‐out point.
But we couldn't find any bullets
at the crime scene.
The peculiar and most confusing
aspect about it is that
the 4 bullets were fired
from 2 different guns.
The bullets on the left chest
are from an 8 mm.
A Raven type gun.
But the bullets on the right side
of the chest
were fired from an untraceable gun.
Post that, the murderer used
a surgical knife to sever the head.
It's a peculiar case
in recent history.
Sir, the judge was running
a business on the side.
A red colour car was spotted
at the time of the murder.
Other than that,
we don't have any other clue.
This was already explained on TV
better than you people.
Tell me something different.
We need to close this case
immediately.
Sorry to interrupt, sir.
ACP Pon Manickavel from Salem
is a great gun specialist.
Moreover,
he holds 5th rank
in the All‐India Range
Firing competition.
In 2012, the goverment selected
and sent him for IDA training.
He even won a gold medal
over there.
He's smart, brilliant and honest.
And he's extremely focused
in his duty.
If we speak to him,
we might get a clue in this case.
Then just call him.
Okay, sir.
‐ Hello.
‐Manickavel.
This is Commissioner Bala Murugan.
Hi, sir, how are you?
‐I'm good. How are you?
‐I'm doing very well.
Manickavel...
did you hear about High Court Judge
Srinivasan's murder?
I did, sir.
That's the only news on TV
since 2 days.
It's very complicated.
There are exit wounds,
but we couldn't find any bullets.
It's simple, sir.
Every bullet fired from a gun,
their exit distance can be calculated
leaving the body.
Sigma Shooting Technology.
An expert will collect the bullets
after its exit.
Manickavel, is this possible?
It's possible for the person
who knows the trick.
‐Okay, thank you, Manickavel.
‐Thank you, sir.
I think he's the right person
for this case.
Let's hand it over to him.
Sir, but there's a small problem.
Six months ago,
while he was investigating
a sensational case in Salem...
Such a rank holder!
What are you going to do
after quitting this job?
I'm going to herd cattle.
My instinct says
he's the right person for this case.
You better convince him.
Also make him understand
the importance of this case.
He's a police officer too.
He'll definitely understand.
We're meeting him tomorrow, okay?
Hello, sir.
‐Welcome, Manickavel.
‐Sir.
Please come.
Okay, fine.
Sir, this is Mr. Manickavel.
‐Sir!
‐Welcome, Manickavel.
Sit.
Balamurugan spoke about you.
‐Impressive track records.
‐Thank you, sir.
We're under immense pressure.
You have to solve
this case quickly.
Okay. sir.
I want full freedom in this case.
There will be
no political interference.
I personally assure you.
I'll take care
of the political interference.
I don't want any disturbance
from our department.
I will be myself.
Okay, Manickavel, go ahead.
Chidambaram will introduce you
to the special team.
‐Good luck.
‐Thank you, sir.
Hey, didn't you join the force
through recommendation?
How did you manage to get
into the special team?
Obviously, special recommendation.
‐Sir!
‐Good morning, sir!
He's Inspector Peruvalathan.
He's been following this case
since the beginning.
He'll be very helpful to you.
Very smart.
He's equal to 10 people.
He's Inspector Nandakumar.
He assisted in
the Tindivanam murder case.
He's Inspector Rajagopal.
For now, I just need two officers.
Sir, 10 people from this team
have been suggested
by the Commissioner.
For what?
I thought he's equal to 10 men.
You two follow me.
Damn, they ditched us.
Looks like special recommendation
got jacked.
Sir, the judge used to wake up
at 5:30 a.m. every day.
Yoga and meditation at 6:45 a.m.,
then, at 7 a.m.,
he goes off to play tennis.
Later, he goes for a walk
on the beach.
‐And then‐‐
‐What did you say your name was?
Peruvalathan.
Shall we continue
after a cup of tea?
Sir?
I'll freshen up and speak to you.
Sir.
Peruvalathan, sir.
Oh... that's good.
‐This tea sucks.
‐Sir?
Can't you find a good place
for tea?
Just being muscled
like Baahubali isn't enough.
Try to attain his wisdom too.
Sir, we're getting late to leave
for the judge's residence.
Hey...
we're going there to convey
our condolences, not to save him.
We can get there at our leisure.
Sir?
‐Special recommendation?
‐Yes, sir.
Settle the bill for this.
This is new.
The department is not used to this.
‐Hey, hey. Follow us.
‐Okay, sir.
‐Tell me, Anbu.
‐Where are you?
I'm heading to the crime scene.
Oh, you're with an accused?
Sorry, I'll call you later.
Dear, it's our Inspector.
‐What is your name?
‐Peruvalathan.
‐Peru...
‐Peruvalathan!
It's Baahubali.
Fine, get home soon.
Bye.
Why there are so many people here,
like it's a gathering?
Clear the area.
Sir, sir, they're here
for our investigation
They've been taking our lives
in the name of investigation.
‐What did you say?
‐Nothing, sir.
‐What did you say, damn it?
‐Sir, I didn't say anything.
Hey, Baahubali!
Why are you getting worked up?
Ask everyone to leave.
Sir, we'll take their phone numbers
and Aadhar cards at least.
Why don't you take
their passports too?
Sir?
I've arrived without GPS.
Hope I'm at the right place.
[recites holy chants]
Scene of the crime!
I'm gonna photograph
the evidence
so that I'll get promoted sooner.
Sir, the judge used to go
for a walk here every day.
On the left corner, he used to
do yoga and meditation.
What's the price of the land
over here?
‐Sir?
‐Ma!
Sir. Sorry, sir.
Sir, I was trying to photograph
vital evidence.
Thought it might be useful to us.
I was going to create
a WhatsApp group and share.
I was thinking of nabbing the accused
as soon as possible.
Bloody hell,
I'm stuck with numbskulls.
‐Mr. Baahubali.
‐Sir.
We're done with the investigation
for the day.
You can leave.
We'll meet tomorrow.
Thank goodness I took my bike.
How long have you planned
to sleep hugging a book?
Why would I hug a book
once the exams are over?
Fine. I wasn't home yesterday.
Did you miss me?
You're right. If our parents were
here, it would've been better.
Sir has rejoined duty
after a long gap.
Didn't you miss anyone?
Shall I give you an idea
so that we don't miss each other?
An average‐looking
mini Anbarasi like you.
What?
And an awesome mini Manickavel
like me.
Oh!
Shall we prep for it?
‐The plan sounds good though...
‐Thank you.
...but can be executed
only after the exams.
Didn't you mention the same
last year too?
Is it? I forgot about that.
You better leave for work
right now.
He worked as a driver at
the judge's residence for 15 years.
Now he works here.
If we interrogate him...
Come on!
Sir, that's him.
Brother!
Others can continue
with their work.
‐Sir, I have nothing to do with it.
‐Shall we have a tea?
I'll get it right away, sir.
‐Name?
‐Narasimhan.
When was the last time
you saw the judge?
‐Tell me, dear.
‐Hello!
How was the dosa?
How... was the dosa?
You're asking me this now?
Obviously! You left
without saying anything.
Do you think this is a house
or a restaurant?
I'll make you starve tonight.
Bloody idiot! I'm break your teeth.
Hey, Baahubali! Hey!
Sir, when I questioned,
he's being arrogant.
Sir, I was right with my replies.
But he's beating me out of spite.
How dare you tell on me?
Go... go and check
if the tea is ready.
Go!
Sir, come on.
Sir, please come. Let's go.
‐Take this.
‐I don't want it, sir.
‐You're bleeding.
‐Sir, your tea.
Come on, have this.
‐Damn it!
‐Sir, don't get angry.
If they had given me 2 more days,
I would've solved the case.
He's totally useless.
‐Sir, don't get worked up.
‐Damn!
How long have you been working?
It's been 6 months, sir.
‐Sir, I don't want.
‐Take it.
Hey, what the hell is he doing?
Sir, I don't want it.
Sir, please listen to me.
‐Sir, please I don't need it.
‐For medical expenses.
Sir, be patient.
‐My ill fate I'm stuck with him.
‐Sir!
Advocate Ramachandran
is the judge's close friend.
He never does anything
without his consent.
‐Do you know the address?
‐Yes, I do.
‐Nanda.
‐Sir!
Okay, sir.
Give me the address.
Manickavel, sir,
if we deal this case in your style,
it will never work out.
I will tell you frankly, sir.
Someone about to confess
will defer due to your methods.
I don't mind
even if you take me wrong.
I did get offended.
You stay right here.
No, I didn't meet the judge
that day.
Sir. Sir, sir, I'm coming.
You should ask Inspector Rathnavel
for personal information.
1927...
1927...
I'm slogging here for the exams,
and you're sleeping peacefully.
You should keep your mind relaxed
a day before the exam.
Don't touch the books.
Come on, come over here.
‐Come closer.
‐Let go of my hand. You're always...
I can't remember these years
and events.
Is that so?
Fine,
tell me when is my birthday.
April 3rd.
Tell me what we did on that day?
We both went to Vinayagar Temple
on that day.
I was wearing a blue sari;
you wore a black shirt
and white pants.
After that?
After which, we had ice cream.
I remember everything.
‐How's that?
‐That's because...
I like you very much.
Like what you study.
It's fine to study what you like,
but how to remember Partition of
Bengal and Simon Commission?
What are you doing?
Simon Commission.
1927.
Simon Commission.
1927!
What about Partition of Bengal?
This is Bengal, and this is India.
It's 1905.
1905, Partition of Bengal.
Oh, God.
Now what do I assign to this?
India's atom bomb tragedy.
Ah, 1974...
Are you really prepping me
for the exam?
Of course, dear. Come here.
‐In 1974...
‐But there are more events.
We have more places to cover.
Get lost, you brat!

I know where you're headed.
You go to your office,
and I'll go for my exams.
‐Okay.
‐Bye.
Why aren't you at work?
Sir, this is Peruvalathan.
I have that Royapuram Ravi
over here.
I'm out with my wife
for an important work
I'll call you later.
Being around his wife...
seems to be an important work.
He doesn't have to come over.
‐I'm gonna question him myself.
‐Sir, sir, sir...
Sir, why do you want to risk it?
Let's wait for him to come.
As if he's going to do anything.
We'll nab them
with great difficulty...
but when he arrives, we'll start
talking only after cup of tea.
‐Watch how I'm gonna handle this.
‐Sir, please wait.
Tell me.
Sir, it's not a big deal to lease
a shop at the fish market.
I hacked one guy's hand over there.
The judge witnessed that incident
and locked me up
with a non‐bailable warrant.
I got pissed off,
so I threatened to kill him.
Otherwise, I have
nothing to do with this case.
Fine, looks like
you didn't find the guy.
I wonder what kind of investigation
you guys carry out.
Hey, how dare you?
Do you think the police are a joke?
Sir, don't raise your hand
for no reason.
It won't turn out good.
What do you mean?
What do you mean by that,
damn it?
Come on, tell me, damn it!
Tell me what will go wrong.
‐Tell me, damn it.
‐Sir, don't hit me.
‐Hey, I'm gonna‐‐
‐Sir, please don't.
Sir, I sent it on our WhatsApp group
by mistake.
Give it to me.
Sir, don't hit me. Sir!
‐Hey!
‐Hey!
What are you doing?
Take your hands off him.
Out.
Get out!
Don't you dare touch anyone
in regards to this case anymore.
They brought in cattle herder
and expect him to solve a case.
I'm gonna resign from this team.
To hell with everyone.
Hello!
Sir, is Peruvalathan at the station?
I am his wife.
Peruvalathan sir left long ago.
Sir, he was supposed to pick up
our daughter from school.
Sir, his wife is on the phone.
I have no clue what happened.
I've been trying to call him
for a very long time.
Tell me, madam.
This is the DC speaking.
Sir, he said will be picking up
our daughter from school.
It's been two hours.
He hasn't returned yet.
I tried calling his phone.
It's ringing,
but he isn't answering.
I don't know what to do now.
I'm really scared, sir.
It's nothing.
I've sent him on an errand.
He'll be home anytime.
Don't you dare touch anyone
in regards to this case anymore.
Hey, how dare you
lay your hands on me?
I'll make sure you pay for it.
Daddy!
Daddy!
Uncle, please don't beat up my dad.
Please, uncle!
Brother, a police officer
beat me up.
We should make him pay for it.
Daddy!
Please don't beat my dad.
Daddy!
Daddy!
Daddy...
Daddy.
Isn't this the hand
that touched my brother?
Give that to me.
Oh, no! Please let my dad go.
Hereafter, they'll think twice before
laying their hands on Royapuram's men.
Hey!
This conflict is between brothers.
You better leave!
Everyone in the department
is like a brother to me.
You keep playing over here.
Uncle will play for a while too.
Uncle! Uncle!
Inspector Marikattan
Adhiyaman Peruvalathan.
Daddy, Daddy.
Is it hurting too much, Dad?
Nothing to worry about, dear.
A police officer should know
when to fight and when to be calm.
Sir.
‐Peruvalathan.
‐Sir.
Should a police officer
work for the department?
Or work for the public?
Sir, isn't both the same?
There's a huge difference.
‐I don't understand.
‐You'll understand eventually.
OFFICE OF THE ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER
CHENNAI
Sir!
Who are we meeting today,
Peruvalathan?
‐Wait, hold on.
‐What's up with him?
Let's discuss it over tea.
‐Fantastic tea!
‐Thank you, sir.
Only now you've come to my terms,
Peruvalathan.
Sir, you can continue
calling me Baahubali.
Fine...
that advocate mentioned about
an Inspector Rathnavel the other day.
Yes.
Shall we meet him?
Why is the door locked?
‐Hey, Muthu.
‐Yes, sir.
Give our number
to the granny next door.
‐Ask her to call when he is home.
‐Okay, sir.
Sir, this is Inspector Rathnavel.
I was told you came home to see me.
What is the matter, sir?
Nothing much.
Just a general inquiry.
Are you free to meet?
I'm a little busy
with personal work.
‐Let's meet tomorrow. No problem.
‐Thank you, sir.
Just for a day's fun,
I have to beg you the entire week.
‐Playing hardball?
‐Yes.
Shalu, let's meet tomorrow.
‐What happened?
‐Please let's meet tomorrow.
Go.
What is it, Rathnavel?
Why are you calling back?
I got a threatening message
from an unknown number.
‐What is the message?
‐It says, "Enjoy your last hour."
Sir, I'm really scared.
You're a policeman.
Don't be scared.
‐Where are you?
‐I'm at Hotel Pallazzio.
Okay, stay right there.
I will come.
Rathnavel, where are you?
I'm heading
towards the parking lot.
Okay, I'll be right there.
Sir, where are you?
I'm heading towards the parking lot.
Come soon.
Sir!
‐Not able to reach him.
‐Sir, look over there.
Peruvalathan!
Sir, I am okay, sir.
I am okay.
What's happening, Manickavel?
We never got a resolution
in the judge's murder.
Now a second murder.
That too from our department.
Do you think there's a connection
between these murders?
I don't think so, sir.
These two murders were done
by two different people.
Manickavel,
I hope you understand the pressure.
‐Higher officials‐‐
‐Sir, I need more time.
I'll submit a clear report.
Sir, if the murderer made his kill
despite the fact
that we're going to be here,
I'm sure there's a link between
the judge's murder and this.
Both were done by different people.
No, sir, I think
it's the same person.
I think he has been following us.
Sir, that too during the bomb blast
those 3 and 1/2 minutes,
all CCTV cameras on the floor
were hacked to run in a loop.
‐Analyse Rathnavel's phone.
‐Sure, sir. Right away.
‐Have you recovered the files?
‐Yes, we've recovered it.
‐Good.
‐Thank you, sir.
But something
is seriously wrong, sir.
Someone has used this mobile phone
48 hours ago.
And they've stolen the data
from it.
Can you trace the device
on which it was copied?
Sure, sir.
It's Sony Vaio, 2015 model.
IP address?
Sir, we got his house address
from the IP address.
It's an independent house
at KK Nagar 2nd Street.
You take the force along.
I'm on my way.
Freeze!
Sir, he's not budging.
Sir, when we were inquiring
at the travel agency,
I saw him following us.
It's not only at the agency.
Tea shop.
The judge's house.
The inspector's house.
You've been following us
everywhere.
I know
that you're not the murderer.
Tell me.
Sir, sir, sir... sir
Hey, get lost!
‐Sir, sir...
‐Out!
Sir!
Sir.
Hey!
He's belongs to our department too.
Undercover.
He's dealing with the same case.
Buy him tea,
and tell him I apologised...
and relieve him.
‐Did you see that?
‐Yes, sir.
Our men don't trust us.
It's that police instinct.
Sorry, you don't look
like a police officer.
‐That's why he's an undercover cop.
‐Shut up!
I met the DGP last evening.
Morning, sir.
Manickavel, meet Mr. Kailash.
Undercover unit.
We met already, sir.
Yes, sir.
As it's a high‐profile case,
few things were decided by
the higher‐ups without our knowledge.
I hope you understand.
Tell me, Kailash.
Sir.
These pictures were hacked
from Rathnavel's phone.
The third person in this picture
is Arjun K. Maran.
He's a successful businessman.
He might have something to do
with these murders.
Maybe he is the next target.
So, if we question him personally,
it will help us to take this case
to the next level.
So, then contact him immediately.
We did try contacting him...
but right now he's in Germany.
So, what's next?
He'll be back on Monday.
‐We'll talk to him in person.
‐Okay.
Sir, you haven't been handling
this case with seriousness.
What I meant is
you're serious about it...
but if you handle it more seriously,
it'll be better.
Actually, sir, if you're sincere,
we can nab that killer in a day.
Oh, no, sir.
What are you doing?
Sir, what's wrong with you?
What is it DC sir?
Your wife wanted you to be the first
to hear the good news that she passed.
I've been calling and texting.
There's no response from you.
Is sir too busy to respond?
Anbu...
there's a birthday party.
Get ready soon. We'll go for it.
Why there's no response from you?
As if you responded to me.
Hey, weren't you very sure about
your results after the exams?
So, where's the surprise
in this matter?
That doesn't mean
you can't congratulate me.
Congrats.
I'll take a shower. You get ready.
I am not going.
It's the DGP daughter's birthday.
I promised him to bring my family.
Please let's go.
Remind me
to get a bouquet on our way.
As if the party is too important.
Thanks.
Is that all I am getting?
Don't you think it's too much?
A thanks is more than enough
for this cake.
One second.
Good morning, sir.
Seems like you were here
since last night.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Hi, sir. Good morning.
‐Hi!
‐Morning.
Sir, sorry.
He's got an appointment right away.
So, please don't take
more than 5 minutes.
Sir, the two people with you
in this picture are not alive anymore.
Someone has meticulously planned
and murdered them both.
Maybe you're the next target
of that killer.
Before we can arrest that killer,
we're here to give you protection.
Please try to understand
and cooperate with us, sir.
In Europe, they're comparing
Tamil Nadu Police with the Scotland Yard.
Look here.
This is from my birthday party
at Le Méridien.
There are 7 other people,
excluding me.
So, tell me, who's next?
With this evidence,
if we follow your stupid logic,
then tell me.
I'll tell my secretary
to give you their email IDs,
addresses and phone numbers.
Thank you.
Then what is your relationship
with the judge and this inspector?
Now, look here.
Srinivasan was my legal counsel
before he became a judge.
And I met that inspector
through Judge Srinivasan.
I've seen him only 2‐3 times.
Anyway...
thank you, sir.
What about the inquiry?
We didn't get any clue
from his side.
So, what's the next plan?
Pon Manickavel, are you there?
I'll keep you posted, sir.
‐Make it quick.
‐Sure, sir.
‐Fine, then.
‐Thank you.
Hey, why are you rushing?
Sir, I've informed everything about
Maran's meeting to the Commissioner.
As he's got political influence,
as per
the Commissioner's instructions,
we're planning to give full protection
to Maran without his knowledge.
I mean this evening...
‐Hey. Hey!
‐...after we nab the killer‐‐
After nabbing the killer?
Are you going to hang him
to death tomorrow?
It's not that. There's pressure
from the department.
The Commissioner has asked
for a swift‐‐
Remember, 6 months ago, a watchman
was killed at your apartment.
‐What happened to that case?
‐Sir, what happened was...
Why are you stuttering now?
Watchman and that case.
Just because the deceased
was a judge,
a special team right away,
immediate investigation,
and a prompt report.
So, there's partiality
when it comes to the dead as well.
Sir, I'm not sure
what you're getting at.
That's right. You won't understand.
You will when you experience it.
How many are stationed
at the 1st Main Road?
Sir, there are 5 officers here.
Be alert!
Make gram vadas
instead of masala vadas.
Okay, fine.
‐What's that noise?
‐Isn't that a dead end?
‐Mosquitoes.
‐Three are stationed here, sir.
Not enough.
Ask 6 officers to be there.
Okay, sir.
There are 8 cops stationed
at the corner of 5th Cross Street.
Will you be late tonight?
There's an officer here who'll be
done soon, then I will come.
Bye!
‐Hello, sir.
‐Hello!
‐Come in, sir.
‐Have you blocked all the roads?
Yes, we have barricaded the roads.
‐Be alert.
‐Sir, we're wide alert.
‐Muthu?
‐Tell me, sir.
Ask them to reduce the volume
of the walkie‐talkies.
‐Brother...
‐Hey!
South, South‐West.
North, North‐West.
What will you do
if they jump from the sky?
Ask to nab them sooner.
It's getting late.
I'm longing for vadas.
Stop!
Don't shoot.
Catch him!
Sir! The suspect is escaping
from the beach side.
I repeat, I repeat. The suspect is
escaping from the beach side.
Sir, he got away.
Oh, shit!
‐Sir, I warned‐‐
‐Do you realise now why we warned you?
I don't know, sir.
I don't know what's happening.
Anyway,
you guys have to look after it.
Yes, Kailash here.
I got a threatening message
that I'll die in 24 hours.
What?
I need to meet Manickavel
right away.
Sir, do you have an appointment?
Tell him it's the Scotland Police.
Manickavel, if the press knows
about the threat to my life,
my share value will drop by 20%.
How much does 20% add up to?
Around Rs. 50 crore.
That's a big amount.
If it's 50
for just threatening your life,
what if they kill you?
No, just for conversation.
Don't play around, Manickavel.
This company is nothing without me.
Total Rs. 500 crore loss.
Rs. 500 crore.
So, sir, isn't 20% of Rs. 50 crore
Rs. 10 crore?
Shall we crack
a small deal between us?
You give that Rs. 10 crore to me.
I'll make sure
you'll be safe without a scratch.
I will take care.
With extra care.
Even the Grim Reaper
can't touch your soul.
Sir, what are you thinking about?
I'm not asking for a share
in your profits.
Instead, I'm asking for a share
from your loss.
In my entire life
as a businessman,
you are the first who has asked
for a share in my loss.
I did stay sincere
after completing my IPS training.
Nothing great.
Six months ago,
I worked as an ASP at Salem.
There was a remarkable case.
I wasn't aware
it will turn my life upside down.
I get really outraged
looking at injustice.
And if it's happening in my area,
there's no space for anything
but action.
It's the same reward
for all the emotions.
But you're overreacting though.
Come on, take it all.
Hey, do you have an arrest warrant?
Warrants are for arresting humans.
But to hunt down
rabid dogs like you,
why do we need a warrant?
INTEGRATED COURT COMPLEX, SALEM
Sir, look what they've done to us!
Just look how they've messed up
our lives.
Sir, sir, just look at the state
of my daughter.
Oh, God!
Oh, God, my dear daughter!
They turned her into ashes.
My daughter used to work
in that sinner's jewelry shop.
She used to refuse
to go to work every day.
But I thought she was making excuses
to skip work and being lazy.
Only now I realised
that her boss at the shop
was harassing her all the while.
As that girl's body was burned,
we couldn't get the traces
of semen.
Maybe the accused burnt the body
with that intention.
Dear Lord, no mother
should endure my pain.
Owing to this...
people will be scared
to have a girl child.
The police have failed
to prove the crime
committed by the accused,
Modilal Seth.
So, this court
has let him walk free.
Oh, God, my daughter's murderer
has been let out without punishment!
As a mother, I'm outraged!
Oh, God!
Well done! Well done!
You just tore them apart.
Awesome.
Do you have a lighter?
Oh!
All the evidence you need is here.
You got to prove it legally now.
People like him
don't belong to this society.
Hey!
You'll be tarnished to dust.
‐Don't laugh.
‐Get lost.
Your death will be gruesome.
Listen, sir.
The person who burned and killed
my daughter
is walking free with a smile.
Please kill him, sir.
Sir, shoot and kill him!
‐Come to the party this evening.
‐Sure!
Shoot him down, sir.
Shoot him, sir.
Shoot him, sir!
Shoot and kill him!
Sir.
We reached home.
Why is there blood on you?
What happened?
Shoot him, sir.
Shoot him, sir!
Shoot and kill him!
‐I won't spare you!
‐Okay, sure we'll be there.
No!
This gun is of no use to anyone.
It's existence is moot.
No!
What is this, Mr. Manickavel?
I never expected this from an honest
and passionate police officer like you.
I understand your pain.
But all this
is a part of the service.
Sir, I didn't wear this uniform
for the sake of it.
I wore this 'cause I loved it.
The pain of removing it...
only I can realize it.
It's totally different in practical
compared to theory.
Nothing seems right.
I understand, Mr.Manickavel.
But take your own time.
Please think about it.
No, sir,
God gave me enough time to think.
You're taking this decision
based on emotions.
Just think about you and your family.
Such a rank holder...
what are you going to do
after quitting this job?
I'm gonna herd the cows.
Once I finished IPS training...
the moment of happiness when I held
the gun for the first time
that feeling...
I believed will last until I die.
My gun which was destined to kill
a thousand criminals...
became a reason to kill an innocent life.
That pain...
will haunt me until I die.
My wisdom and the lesson that
I did not receive from the IPS training
that one incident taught me a hard lesson.
So, I started playing my second innings
just for the money.
I wanna make millions, sir.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Won't we have a desires
to get a taste of your lifestyle?
What will be the size of this house?
Beach is right next to it,
and a swimming pool inside the house.
Sir, don't you wanna enjoy
this throughout your life.
Just trust me,
I'll take care of everything.
Sir!
‐Sir!
‐Morning!
Run the exterior camera.
The security detail is good.
Impressive.
Thank you.
Sure.
‐Okay?
‐Okay, thank you.
Sir, it's the Commissioner.
‐Hello
‐Yes, sir.
How is it going, Manickavel?
I will take care, sir.
Sir!
What happened, Manickavel?
‐Sir let's go.
‐Damn it!
Sir... no!
Sir...
Search the opposite building right away.
‐Okay, sir.
‐Fast!
Go fast!
Show me all the cameras pointing
at the opposite building.
Okay, sir.
‐Nanda, we've checked it thoroughly.
‐Sir!
Only the rifle is here.
‐You've done a great job, Manickavel.
‐Thank you, sir.
Sir, despite the fact
the security was tight.
Instead of getting closer...
they staged a sniper shot 900ft
from the opposite building.
Thank you, Manickavel.
Thank you.
Brother, I require the CCTV footage
from the mosque gate.
Manickavel, did you get the money?
I'm very sure that the money
will arrive on time.
I've sent you a video,
please have a look.
‐Well done, Kailash.
‐Thank you, sir.
Did you see the video?
I did, Manickavel.
It was him who killed the Judge.
Also it was him who killed
the Inspector in a blast.
And it was him,
who came to kill you at your house.
Also it was him on the sniper yesterday.
Take more money if you want...
kill that old man!
Fine, tell me what's your conflict
with that old man?
We had our differences in the business.
Don't worry, sir.
No matter where he is,
I'll bring him to you.
Relax!
"It's practically different
from what I had studied."
"Nothing is right, sir."
I Pon Manickavel...
do solemnly affirm that
I will bear true faith and allegiance
to the Constitution of India
as by the law established.
I am proud of my country.
And I'll always be faithful
to my Mother India.
Jai Hind!
"Won't we have the desires
to get a taste of your lifestyle?"
Did you go through the details
of the new hotel project?
Okay, thank you.
See you guys later.
Thank you.
Manickavel, my daily routine
must be boring for you.
Let's have a party tonight.

Sir, this old man's name is Nasrathullah.
His native is Nedumpalayam village
next to Ambur.
He used to run
a small leather business out there.
His daughter and son‐in‐law
died in an accident.
In that depression he lost focus
on business and failed.
The only consolation in this tragedy
was his grand daughter.
She worked hard and joined an
Engineering college in Chennai under merit.
She used to do part time jobs
during her education.
Hosting events at malls and hotels...
wedding receptions and working in Ad‐films.
She used that money to cover
her expenses for education.
In one such occasion,
Maran spotted her at an Ad‐shoot.
He tried to pursue her...
got her number through an agent
and started flirting with her.
Sent her many messages.
Initially she was patient, but later
filed a complaint with the police.
Since he was influential nothing happened.
So, that girl made use of #MeToo.
Tagged everyone from the Commissioner
till an ordinary police officer in a post.
That post went viral!
And Arjun K. Maran was arrested overnight.
But they came to know
during the investigation...
that his mobile phone
was lost at the hotel.
Also he blocked the sim and has
filed a complaint in regards to it.
Once it was proved in court,
that he didn't send those messages...
subsequently Maran was released.
Unfortunately,
shortly after these incidents...
that girl died in a train accident.
That's what Police records states.
But, sir...
must be wondering why this elderly
is set out to kill Maran?
As per my investigation...
I went to his native and investigated
few of his near and dear ones.
And then when I finally went to his house.
I found a diary written by him.
My son and daughter‐in‐law
died in an accident.
I incurred a huge loss
by not focusing on the business.
I was almost on the verge
of killing myself.
Grandpa,
please don't leave me behind.
Grandpa, please get down.
Grandpa,
please don't leave me behind.
That's when my grand daughter,
saved me and gave a new meaning
to my life
Grandpa!
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"I ruminate 'bout you
without sleeping late in the night"
"so does the moon,
which stares back at me"
"my desire is to see you scale the peaks"
"only then my soul
will depart this world"
"you're my mother of love"
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"Grandpa!"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"paintings will come
to take lessons from you"
"flowers will gather and bloom
one like your shadow"
"through your magical eyes"
"I followed you turning into your mother"
"followed you"
"I'm short on words 'O' my dear"
"I'm just an ordinary disciple of you"
"the touch of your precious hands,
turns the sand into gold"
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
"come to me 'O' dear"
In order to keep in touch
with me everyday...
she bought a phone for me,
from her first month's salary.
Hi grandpa!
Why did you spend so much, dear?
It was not necessary.
Grandpa, didn't you say
you wanted to see me everyday?
Now you can see me everyday
on video call.
Why are you coughing, grandpa?
Nothing much, it's the cold.
I hope you're taking
your medicines on time.
Yeah, I've been taking them on time.
‐I'll top the class, grandpa.
‐That's great, dear.
Fine, when are you coming home?
I'll come down next week for sure.
‐Who is that?
‐Just a minute, grandpa.
Maran after getting out of the prison,
went crazy over my grand daughter.
He sent his men...
they beat up my grand daughter and
took away right in front of my eyes.
Let go of me!
I was baffled and went to
the Police station.
Sir. Sir... please have a look at this.
few people took away my grand daughter,
while she was on phone.
When I tried calling again,
it says switched‐off.
Not sure what happened to her.
Please, please.
No one respected my plea
neither gave a resolution.
Two days later,
I saw my grand daughter as a corpse.
"My dear Princess, reminiscing dahlia"
"You're my precious"
"You're my precious"
"just your glance floods my heart"
"You're my precious"
"You're my precious"
"I ruminate 'bout you
without sleeping late in the night"
"so does the moon,
which stares back at me"
"my desire is to see you
live long and happy life"
My grand daughter was the only reason
for my happiness in life.
When she passed away...
I was clueless in what to do?
I lost faith in law, justice and integrity.
The people who were the reason
for my grand daughter's death...
I wanted to avenge them
with my bare hands.
Before killing these men...
he tried buying guns illegally in Salem.
And was caught by the police.
Nasrathullah was locked up here
for buying a gun illegally.
One of his cell‐mate
was sentenced to death.
He was punished.
Another cell‐mate was Bhoominathan.
Just this last week,
he got out of the jail
If we try and catch him...
or if we can find the details
on the second gun in Judge's murder case
we can close this case.
Good job, Kailash.
‐Karthick are the papers ready?
‐Ready, sir.
Sir, construction work is on
as per the schedule.
But only the interior work
is getting a bit delayed.
I've already warned them about it.
Hello, sir!
This project was supposed to
get over 3 months ago.
‐Why is the delay?
‐Sir, it's like...
Sir!
Stay inside, until I say so.
Sir, come on, come on.
Come on, come on...
There are glass pieces inside his abdomen.
It can be removed only after a surgery.
it's quite critical though.
Please put your signature
on this consent form
Doctor is he in danger?
Sorry, I can't say anything now.
We will let you know after the surgery.
‐Hello!
‐Arjun K. Maran, here.
Yes, sir, Dr. Chandrashekar here.
Sir, patient is seriously ill now.
We will do our best.
I don't care about the expense,
he should be saved.
Let me know if you need doctors
from abroad.
I'll make arrangements immediately.
Okay, sir.
Sir. Good morning, sir.
‐Where is he?
‐At 2nd floor, CCU. ‐ Let's go.
Sir!
How is he doing?
The surgery is in process.
They're stating it's quite critical.
How can you send him in,
without any back‐up or security?
How did it happen?
Sir, one minute.
Sir, Manickavel himself
is responsible for his state.
What are you saying?
When he went to Arjun K. Maran's house
in regards to Judge's murder case...
he discovered that something is fishy.
As he has high level political influence...
we couldn't force him for a statement.
So, Kailash placed a bug in his house
without his knowledge.
When we heard their conversation...
we learned that there's a 4th person
involved in this case.
When we were clueless about the 4th person.
Sir, if we wish to know
who that 4th person is...
Arjun K. Maran should trust us blindly.
I have a plan.
In order to spook him,
Manickavel sent him a threatening message.
Arjun K. Maran,
who got spooked by the message...
I need to meet Manickavel,
right away.
In order to be around him all the time...
he tried to win his trust
by taking a bribe from him.
"Give me that 10 crores"
Making use of this opportunity.
Manickavel was around Arjun K. Maran
all the time.
The shootout at that building
was staged by Manickavel.
Sir!
Post that incident,
Arjun K. Maran started trusting Manickavel.
Oh!
Thank you, Manickavel
It's okay.
It's okay.
This incident occurred
during one such instance.
Manickavel must know the clue
about the 4th person...
'cause he would've seen
the face of the killer.
Manickavel risked his life
for the sake of our department.
"Life is a testament of
downfall and rising"
"All you need is a push to rise high"
"Her breath is enough
to embark on this journey"
"my eyes are going dry
in the duress"
"to have a lap to sleep on forever"
"forever my heart will beat for you"
Don't worry, he'll be fine.
The entire department
is with you as a support.
Moorthy, I want your complete focus
on Manickavel's recovery.
And I want him back to work.
"Life is a testament of
downfall and rising"
He's right here, dad.
Listen, dad wants to speak to you.
Here, take this.
"All you need is a push to rise high"
"Her breath is enough
to embark on this journey"
You can't be as good cook as I am.
Oh, no!
Hey, why are you getting scared
for silly matters?
Hey!
Don't you dare come back
to the kitchen, get lost.
Thought at least today
I will have a good meal.
Get lost!
Sir...
‐Follow my instructions.
‐Okay, sir
Excuse me,
I need a favor from you.
Yes. sir.
I need the entire CCTV footage
from May 20th.
Sorry, sir, during the fire accident
that occurred last month...
the entire stock of CCTV footage
was destroyed.
We've already filed a complaint
at the Police station.
I'll tell you,
how to proceed further.
Okay, sir.
Sir!
‐A small information regarding this case.
‐Sir.
On May 20th an Ad‐shoot happened
at the same Hotel.
The production company will definitely
have the footage.
You track that down and get it immediately.
Definitely, sir.
Sir, hard disk.
Sir, this is Karthikeyan from Armory.
Tell me, sir.
Sir, we got the details on the
second gun used in Judge's murder.
It's M51, Taiwan gun.
It's quite a complicated gun.
As it's a front loading gun...
it's hard to use this gun,
without proper training.
And usually this gun is available
in the market.
As per our records, in 2008...
Govt. imported these guns from Taiwan.
Is it possible to trace the address
from the list of gun owners?
We don't have that data list with us.
Then, what else?
I think, there are chances
if we try the Delhi armory.
Delhi armory is the only source, where we
can find the details of the unknown gun.
Contact them right away.
Please get all my reports.
He holds an iPhone 10.
Diamond Edition.
Inquire at all the iStore dealers
in Chennai.
As that phone is a special edition...
the list of buyers will be less.
Sir, a total of 150 people
have bought this phone.
Purchase date.
Age wise.
Short list everything.
‐Hello.
‐Sir...
the date you've mentioned
we tracked down the number
in that hotel tower range.
‐Share the location
‐Okay, sir.
Sir, how come you're going alone?
I'm ready now.
‐Hi, Manickavel
‐You managed to save Maran
from my men.
‐if you can, try saving your wife.
Manick!
Manick!
Manick!
Let go of him, damn it!
Let go of him.
‐Anbu, go from here.
‐Let go of him.
Manick!
‐Anbu are you okay?
‐I'm okay.
Hey, tell me.
Who sent you damn it?
Manickavel!
Sir, who the hell is he?
What does he have to do with me?
The other day an old man
came to kill you...
today he has come.
We're clueless who will come for us next.
Sir, I can't blindly handle this case
without knowing its history.
Sorry!
Manickavel!
Only one person is the reason,
why these two came to kill me.
And the name of that person is,
Badrinath.
He's a successful businessman in State,
Central and International level.
Hi, please to meet you.
‐Hello.
‐So, what's going on?
The project is near completion.
Cheers!
He has the full support from
the Home Minister and the Govt.
I used to be his shell‐face.
But one day he said that will make me
a partner in a new 500 crore project
And asked me to come to Taj Hotel.
My pleasure, sir.
Yes! Yes!
He is psychotic, when it comes to women.
If he likes a girl...
even if she's ugly,
he'll go extremes to attain her.
He'll use them as long as he wants...
and then he'll kill them.
I live my life, King Size!
He bumped into a girl
at the hotel's elevator.
Okay.
Yeah, sure.
I'll call you back.
Hi, can I have your number?
During that meeting I came to know,
that girl got him upset.
Good Morning, Mr. Badri.
‐This the Judge and the Inspector.
‐Hi sir...
Sir, you had asked them to come.
They're here to help us.
Sir, you wanted to meet them
regarding our project.
Is something upsetting you?
I didn't want to lose out on the deal.
I went and spoke to the agent.
What is that girl's name?
It's Dhanya, she's a college student.
She's working part‐time.
Give me your price.
Sorry Sir, she's not the type
you're looking for.
I took her number from him
and spoke to her myself.
She turned that into a big issue
and got me arrested.
I was never humiliated
so much in my life.
With the help of Judge Srinivasan,
I got out easily.
Once I got out of the prison,
I wanted to kill her.
Let me go!
Please...
Please, sir, let me go.
Please, sir.
I beg of you, please let me go.
‐Please...
‐You got me arrested.
Ma!
That's when Badrinath called
and asked me not to kill her...
and to send her to him.
We arranged a corpse matching her
blood group and staged a train accident
Inspector Rathnavel helped us with it.
Hey, Inspector, not planning to go inside?
I'll go in first.
Judge, sir, please wait.
I'll show you something more interesting
Oh, god, let go of me.
Ma!
Once I was done with her.
I sent her to Badrinath.
Just like what he does with other girls...
he has her at his ECR godown
and torturing her sexually.
Help!
HELP!
Please someone save me.
Help!
‐Please let me go, I beg you.
‐Easy. Easy!
Please let me go, please
‐Please don't, please let me go.
‐Try this, you'll feel better.
Let go of me...
Don't! Please let go of me.
I passed out of IPS with a Gold Medal...
did you think, I did that to
work with criminals like you?
Don't!
I would've killed you the day I met you.
Badrinath!
This name...
I was waiting for this moment.
Manickavel, please don't kill me.
Don't!
Don't!
"I spotted a streak of fire"
"I set the same,
raging on to this forest"
"The forest burned down to the ground"
"We've left behind the footprint
of bravery"
"Blazing lightning has struck
the sea to rise high"
"The sky is becoming clear
with birds chirping songs of hope"
"I spotted a streak of fire"
"I set the same,
raging on to this forest"
Careful...
Careful!
Who is this girl
and what happened to her?
Fine, I'll go and get some water to drink.
Let go of me!
Please let go of me.
What happened?
I can't bear this, let me go.
Oh, no, nothing dear, don't be scared.
Nothing's wrong, don't be scared.
He's your brother, don't be scared.
Please let go of me...
‐...please.
‐have some water.
Take this, nothing to worry.
Don't be scared, we're here for you.
Sir.
Manickavel,
come right away to Badrinath's house
Home Minister is on the way.
Come as soon as possible.
Make sure you're in uniform.
Brother...
please kill them all!
Brother, please kill them all.
Please brother.
No other girl should endure
what I went through.
I should be the last one.
Please brother, kill them all.
Please brother.
Good Morning, Madam.
Badri!
Don't worry about anything.
Everything is under control
When will you nab that old man?
Listen Badri, we've made all the
arrangements to catch him.
We have full support from the Central.
You don't have to worry.
When will you nab the old man?
Badri, please try to understand.
When will you nab the old man?
Sir, ma'am is calling you.
Madam!
Murthy, why is it so difficult
to catch an old man?
Who the hell is he?
He's challenging to kill in 12 hours...
and have been texting
with a deadline.
Madam, this is a complicated case.
We're aware of it.
‐Actually we're trying to‐‐
‐To heck with your try...
didn't he kill earlier,
just like this after texting?
Yes madam!
Then?
Look here, Murthy...
what happened before in this case
or what will happen?
I'm not asking you to sketch me a plan.
He has challenged to kill him by tonight.
What action have you taken till now?
After the Judge's murder...
we have a special team under
Pon Manickavel doing an investigation.
What did you say his name was?
Pon Manickavel.
Ah... Pon Manickavel.
Where is he?
I wanna see him right now.
I've already informed him,
he's on his way.
Sir!
Badri, please relax.
‐Sir!
‐Mmmm.
Ma'am!
Madam, he's been handling the case
since the beginning.
Very brilliant, he cracked all
the loop holes in this case.
But he hasn't caught the old man.
I don't need to hear his history.
Manickavel, from now on
Tilak is in‐charge of this case.
It's enough you assist him with what
he needs in regards to this case.
‐Sir?
‐Hey!
Out!
Sorry.
So, you're that Pon Manickavel.
Why can't you just shoot an old man?
I'll nab that old man by tonight.
Just watch.
As I said earlier, those variants of guns,
we're not importing anymore...
'cause of its complicated handling.
Can I have the list of gun owners?
And is it still being used
by any of the officers?
No, I don't think so.
Wait, wait, wait!
I think there was a batch in 2009.
We've given M55 gun for training at IDA.
Okay, can I have that list of names?
I'll try and send you that, yeah.
‐Thank you.
‐Okay, okay, madam.
Welcome Madam.
‐One minute... uh.
‐Okay, Madam.
Hello!
Badri, hope the security is fine?
Everything is alright...
but the Police
no matter how much you pet the snake
it tends to bite back one day
that's the nature you know.
Badri any issues?
Even if there is a single small issue...
even if the God decides to appear
can't do squat to me.
Sir, there are security cameras
around the house...
and constables are posted
at every nook and corner.
There are drones flying
around the house...
spread across the area.
Sir, we have everything under control.
You don't have to worry about anything,
I don't trust your department...
but I trust you!
Thank you, sir.
Sir!
Sir, come inside.
Yes, cover him completely.
‐Sir, he's leaving.
‐Oh, God!
Come on quick, come on, come on.
From which directions was it fired?
it came from the rooftop, sir.
I think it's was from North East Direction.
‐Badrinath, please stay.
‐Sir, please stay.
‐Badrinath.
‐Sir, I have everything under control.
You don't have to worry about it.
Sir, I...
Sir, it's not safe outside
Ma'am, Mr. Badri is leaving.
Tilak, where he feels it's comfortable
you get there and protect him.
Yes Ma'am, I'm following him.
‐Okay, do it.
‐Sure ma'am.
Move, move, move everyone!
Sir, Bhoominathan who was in prison
works at Mani workshop at Royapuram
that's what his brother mentioned,
Sir, he hardly speaks to anyone...
but doesn't fail to pay 5 times,
and keeps it to himself.
Think harder, it's an important case.
Sir, even Pon Manickavel was our cell mate.
Did you say Pon Manickavel?
Yes sir, he's from your department.
Tell me, Kailash, sir
Did Pon Manickavel serve time
at Salem prison?
Yes, sir.
Asst. Commissioner Pon Manickavel
was careless during his duty
and was irresponsible
that made him responsible
for loss of a life.
According to IPC section 287
this court sentences him to
the prison for 6 months.
Hey, why didn't you mention this earlier?
Sir, earlier you just asked
about Nasrathullah.
Only now you inquired about
Pon Manickavel.
So, I've mentioned everything about him.
Tomorrow, if you ask about Palanisami,
then I will speak about him.
Hang up, damn it.
Guys seal this place right now.
‐Don't worry, sir, we're armed.
‐Okay.
Come on, guys!
Sir, where did he go?
‐Where is he?
‐Where's your boss?
Sir!
Tell me, tell me damn it.
Sir, sorry about what happened out there.
I have secured this place.
Hey... you fools!
Why are you guys here?
Go and protect everything upstairs.
I don't want your protection here.
Get out! Out!
Out!
Hello...
did you collect the details
of the cases dealt by Pon Manickavel?
Sir, when he was stationed in Targakapatti
of Salem district...
handled 7 cases in total
from which 4 were sentenced to prison.
Remaining 3 got out using their influence.
Give the contact numbers of those 3 people.
Sorry sir, those 3 died recently.
How did that happen?
In one case,
brother of the accused killed him.
In another case,
the accused got killed by his enemy.
And the third committed a suicide
Is there a co‐incidence among them?
All of them were shot dead.
Nothing else is common in the case.
‐Gun shot?
‐Yes, sir.
Can you mail me the death and
forensic report immediately?
Tilak, is everything okay?
Yes, sir, he has a perfect bunker
built in the basement.
Oh, God!
‐Nanda, cover him.
‐What's going on?
‐Sir, sir, sir, please go inside.
Don't come out, go inside quick.
We couldn't find any bullets.
It's difficult to use them
without proper training,
Pon Manickavel,
is a great gun specialist.
Everyone of them was shot dead!
Nothing else is common in the case.
You won't understand,
until you experience it
You... Manickavel?
How come you're here?
What's happening?
Has that old man arrived?
Huh?
Hey, say something.
I've just sent you the list of 2009 batch
from IDA training.
Please check you email.
Badrinath!
Even if the sinner tries to evade everyone...
can't escape the clutches of the God.
In one case,
brother of the accused killed him.
In another case,
the accused got killed by his enemy.
God won't appear
for anything and everything.
Instead sends avatars of himself.
And the third committed a suicide
If not...
he might appear as Manickavel too.
Hey, hey... please don't kill me!
Brother, please kill them.
Hey, hey, hey...
‐No!
‐Shoot them, sir.
"No other girl should endure
what I went through."
‐No...
‐Shoot them, sir.
Sir!
I did try to catch the old man alive...
but he...
shot down, Badrinath
and was going to shoot me.
As a precaution...
I had to shoot him down.
‐Brilliant job, Manickavel.
‐Thank you, sir.
‐Call the ambulance and clear the body.
‐Congratulations. Well done!
Sir, my name is Nasrathullah.
Sir, I got a threatening message
from an unknown number.
Okay, I'll be right there.
What's your car number?
Why do you have to do it?
I want to kill them with my bare hands.
Manickavel, from now on Tilak
is in‐charge of this case.
Badri, any issues?
Even if there's a single small issue...
there's my personal guest house for safety.
My underground lair,
I'll go there.
Even if the God plans to appear,
can't do squat about it.
Brother, I need a corpse with
O+ve matching his body type.
I've made all the arrangements
you might require at Mangalore.
Sister, you can continue your course
out there.
Thank you, brother.
What's wrong with you?
Best of luck!
Congrats, Pon Manickavel, sir
You cleverly erased all the evidence.
But that's not the end of the story.
I'll get hold of at least one evidence.
And arrest you before I retire
from the service.
Best of luck!
Keep gawking,
I'll buy you chickpeas.
It's true that Police Department
does its duty.
But who do they serve?
Is it for the department?
Or for the politicians?
Or do they serve the public?
I got a reply for that question
in spur of that moment
To which my conscience supports...
I'll lean towards it
in accordance to the truth...
in accordance to righteousness
I will perform my duties
until my last breath.
So it's just a beginning.
