Tabbar (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 1 - Karam Din - full transcript

A retired policeman's family dinner gets interrupted by the gun trotting brother of Jalandhar's most powerful man, who thinks the family has stolen his drugs. The scuffle sets up a transformative journey for every family member.

Sargun, it's confusing.

Don't know whether
to go left or right.

Sargun!

Sargun! No, no, no...

Everything will be fine.
Come on, come on...

Everything will be fine.

No. Don't worry. Don't worry.

Calm down.
Get in.

Everything will be fine.

"Sing his praises day and night..."

"Sing his praises day and night..."



"Sing his praises day and night,
says Nanak to you."

"Sing his praises day and night,
says Nanak to you."

"Never forget me oh great giver,
always bless me with your name."

"Sing his praises day and night..."

"Sing his praises day and night..."

"Awaken O Farid,"

"go see the world!"

"Maybe you'll meet a forgiven one,"

"and be forgiven too."

What have we done?

Sargun!

Sargun!

What are you doing?

He was my flesh and blood too.



It's painful for me too.

God will never forgive us.

He will never...

If God was real we would've
never seen this day.

Let's go.

Sargun!

Come on. Let's go.

"Walk on, Farid..."

42... 43... 44... 45...

46... 47... 48...

49... 50.

51... 52... 53...

54... 55...

This is not acceptable!

I take my eyes off you
and you stop.

Okay, fine. Don't get angry.

If you've a death wish
throw yourself under the train.

Instant death.

I am not going to die.
I am not going to die.

I won't die before I turn 100.
Wait and watch.

100-years.

Take some years off the board.

I cannot bear you for that long.

- Give.
- Here you go.

Did you do the accounts?

I am thinking of
talking to brother once.

It's only for a year
then Happy will find a job.

Stop begging people.

Take my advice and sell the gun.

Too much attachment
with anything is not good.

The same goes for sweetmeats.

- You're swelling up like a football.
- Stop it.

Here you go.

I'll go get dressed.

Tegi, any plans of waking up today.

I've been up for a while.

Then come down.

Lassi is ready,
come and have breakfast.

Coming.

Bluetooth mode, device paired.

Tegi, lower the volume.

Aunty...

This one's broken.

Should I put in a new one?

The stupid thing didn't
even last four months.

Fix it, son.

The condenser is broken.

I'll put in a new one in the evening.

Don't be late tonight.

We've to attend religious event.

What time is Happy arriving?

I told you a dozen times, father.

9:30 pm.

Okay, sorry. Slipped my mind.

I'll paint it on the wall instead.

'Our MLA Pankaj Ahuja has
to leave to serve in Gurduwara.'

Go that way!

Get back, get back and take U-turn.

Sir.
Wait just a minute. Hear me out.

Do I look like a fool to you

to give a speech here!

The entire bloody ground is empty.

I left no dearth in campaigning.
The scoundrels didn't show up.

- How shall our leader be...
- Just like Ajeet Sodhi!

- How shall our leader be...
- Just like Ajeet Sodhi!

All your demands will be met
when you choose your MP as...

Ajeet Sodhi.

How shall our leader be...

Just like Ajeet Sodhi!

How shall our leader be...

Just like Ajeet Sodhi!

Don't forget to show up at
the PAP Ground at 5pm.

Remember, 5pm.

- How shall our leader be...
- Just like Ajeet Sodhi!

- How shall our leader be...
- Just like Ajeet Sodhi!

They are very lazy...

- They don't hear you!
- No sir.

Let me talk to them...

I kicked him?

Attaboy. Are you here
for my wedding party?

Get up you fools and get back to work.

Brother, first we'll have
lunch and then resume work.

I don't want to deal with that one.

Get back to work. Come on.

Pick this up.

Come here and help me.

Bring the flags, the flags.
Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

- So...
- What time is Maheep's flight?

Why?

Come.

I will go pick him up.

- He's not a kid anymore.
- Come on.

Ajeet Sir's orders.

I see.

Fine, I'll go pick him up.

There's an important rally today.
Stay with Ajeet.

Right?

Okay.

Fine?

Fine.

- Greetings, uncle.
- Greetings, son.

- All well.
- Fit. What about you?

Fit as a fiddle.

Your aunt's sent lassi. Have some.

Why don't you ever pay us a visit too?

It's been weeks since
I last saw your face.

We just met three days ago, uncle.

Can't get enough of you, son.

Do come.

Brother...

The thing is... Happy's...

coaching fee has increased.

You know... about the rents in Delhi.

I'm not asking for much.

Even 150,000 would be enough.

Higher.

I can't help you during the elections.

If you want to sell your house,
I can fetch you a deal?

What are you saying, brother?

It's the only memory
we have of our mother.

Can there be any other way?

You and your family
never listen to anyone.

You know what,
give me these matches as well.

Uncle's here.

I'm coming...

Hello, uncle.

Hello, dear.

- How are you?
- How are you?

All good with your blessings.

Have you got your exam dates?

Yes, starts next month.

By the way,
there's no worrying about you.

You'll pass with flying colours.

God bless you, Omkar.

Are you coming over in the
evening to Gupta's religious gathering?

No, Mahajan sir.

I am the gun that salutes from afar.

Do come for a little while?

- We'll see, Mahajan sir.
- Okay.

Keep them over there, dear.

Again Mahajan paid 20 rupees less.

Doesn't matter, son.

'You all are welcome.'

'Although one can think
of Mother Goddess at any time'

'but the veneration done
at night is much more effective.'

What is this?

Cake?

Mom.

Did you order a cake for Happy?

Yes.

He cracked the mock test

not the main exams that
you ordered a cake for him.

Don't jinx him.

Everything happens step-by-step.

And you're making carrots-peas
for him.

Wow!

Listen son put the clothes
in the machine.

Didn't Savvy fix the exhaust?

No.

Come out, let me do it.

Come on.

Try my cooking as well.

O Mother Goddess...

Please go, pay your respect.

Did you talk to your brother
about the money?

Hmmm... No...

I was thinking you were right.

Let's sell the gun.

I'm sure it will fetch
a couple of hundred thousand.

Right decision.

Good riddance.

It's the only good thing in the house.

Sell that too!

Happy will get a new one!
The automatic kind.

Patiala Police have
arrested five smugglers.

Along with heroin, we found this.
The yellow powder.

It's much more dangerous
compared to smack and heroin.

Sir, one question...

How did Yellow get in Punjab?

Wasn't Manjeet uncle
with you on the Police force?

We don't have much information
about this new drug.

But the Patiala Police
will soon find out.

So today's question is--

It's 10 pm, Happy hasn't arrived yet.

He'll be here.

I say let's dig in... the food.

Is it carrots and peas?

He sniffed it all the way.

- You're here.
- Greetings.

Greetings, son. God bless you.

What is this?
Why is the kitchen filled with smoke?

The exhaust's broken.

Did you get the stuff?

Sorry, bro.
Palika Bazaar was closed.

Next time, I promise

Promise. I mean it.

It's okay, take his bag upstairs.

Promise.

Like every time.

So young man's been
partying with his friends.

No papa, I don't drink.

My friend Simar dropped
his beer on my shirt.

But the smell's coming from your mouth.

Rascal...

If your mother finds
out she'll make me quit too.

There's no way she will find out.

You're here, son.

Greetings, mother.

You arrived.

Mom's lost weight.

- Are you making her do yoga?
- Sycophant!

Palika Bazaar was closed he said.

- Hello.
- Hello, son.

Sorry for disturbing you at this hour.

Does Harpreet stay here?

And you are?

My name is Maheep.

This is his bag.

He picked up my bag
instead of his on the train.

I found this address
on his driving license

- and I thought I'll check up on him.
- Oh no...

Thank you.

Sorry...

All my documents were in it.

It's okay. It's okay.

- Here you go.
- Yes...

If I can get my bag?

- Yes, of course. I'll go get it.
- Thank you.

- Glory to Mother Goddess!
- Glory to Mother Goddess!

I knew you wouldn't show up
so I brought the offerings instead.

Here you go.
Glory to Mother Goddess!

Glory to Mother Goddess!

Here you go, son. Offerings.

No, thank you.

Take it, son. Only the
fortunate ones get the offerings.

Take it, son.

What's the matter, bro?

Your bro's new phone has arrived.

Happy actually bought it for you.

Yes...

Congratulations. Congratulations.

Listen, is it an iPhone.

I mean... I don't know.
I haven't opened it yet.

Check it now. What if he's brought
another of those Chinese phones.

Wow... your tracksuit's
absolutely stunning.

Is it imported?

Yes.

Where did you get it from, son?

From the UK.

Even the guy looks
like he's from the UK.

Are you married yet, son?

Mahajan sir...

Okay, fine.

Glory to Mother Goddess!

Sorry... It got exchanged
because they are so identical...

You know what, come in take a seat.

And check properly.

Have dinner with us as well.

No, everything looks proper.

Thank you very much.

- Sorry...
- It's okay.

Let's make an unboxing
video in the morning.

Why wait till morning? Come over now.

Now?

Now he drinks booze in 'Seershasan'
(standing on his head).

Mom, I'm going over to
Bagga's for studies.

At least have dinner.

I am not hungry...
and I've lots of homework.

You're always
at Bagga's place studying

but your grades still don't improve.

Come on, five minutes won't do any harm.

Get that thing from the fridge.
Attaboy...

Oh, God.

Kids, you two are grownups now.

Fine, get on with cutting the cake...

Wait.
Let him speak.

Your grandpa used to say

a person should celebrate
not the day of his birth.

But the day of his deeds.

So today marks the beginning
of your good deeds.

Right.

Cut the cake.

He'll look handsome
in the police uniform.

All the best.

Are we done?

- I am leaving.
- At least have the cake...

You guys eat.

I'll get your stuff.

Sir, the food's ready.

Wow...

Maheep loves this.

I made it exactly how he likes it.

Please try it.

No, not yet. I'll wait for Maheep.

I'll get some fresh
bread made until then.

Go and find out where Maheep is.

- Yes, sure.
- Find out. It's been too long.

Hello.

Hello, uncle. Where are you?

I... am at the airport.

But all for nothing. Waste of time.

What do you mean?

I mean Maheep was here

but you know his old habits.
He left with his friends.

But don't worry...

You're back again.

What happened?
Did you leave something?

There's a packet missing from the bag.

But we didn't open your bag.

Things don't go missing
without opening.

- What?
- I mean everything else is untouched.

Son, what did you lose?

What happened?

Just a misunderstanding.

- Where are you hiding it?
- Hey...

Where do you think you're going?

- Listen, son...
- Do we look like thieves to you?

You took my bag. Didn't you?

Who told you to take my bag?
Who sent you?

- What do you mean who sent me?
- I mean did you get a call or a text.

I didn't get any calls or texts...
Are you crazy?

- Listen, son...
- Wait a second. Wait a second.

Are you crazy?
Can't you see?

They are both identical.
It was just a confusion.

- Don't try to make me a fool, asshole!
- Don't abuse me.

Listen, child. These are
not the manners to talk to anyone.

Come on.
Leave.

We'll talk in the morning.

Just return my stuff and I'll leave.

I think he's high. Call the Police.

Look, son, if the Police get here

they will make you sober again.

Go on. Go home.
We'll talk in the morning.

- Give me my stuff.
- We'll talk in the morning. Okay.

Go on.
Go on, son.

Go on, son.

- Give me my stuff.
- What is it?

This is not the way.
Are these your manners?

Move back.

- This is not the way!
- Move back.

This is not the way!

I've had enough of everyone.

- What is this...
- Sit down. Everyone sit down.

Sit down. Sit down.

- Aunty, sit down.
- You'll be okay.

We're decent people, son.

Decent people don't have
to tell about their decency, aunty.

I've seen the world too.

- Sit down. Sit down.
- Son...

Everyone sit down.
Back.

Won't you call the Police?
Call the Police.

Aunty, have you heard about Ajeet Sodhi.

He's my brother.

Soon he'll be in power too.

No one will know where
everyone's disappeared.

Okay, okay, fine.

- How much did you lose, son?
- I want the packet?

- How much did you lose, son?
- Where is the packet?

- What happened?
- Where are you coming from?

He hasn't done anything. Leave him.

- Leave him. Leave him.
- Sit down. Sit down.

Now I'll shoot him first.

Wait... wait... wait just a second.

Go get the packet. Come on.

Let him go. He's just a child.
How much money do you want?

I want the packet.

We don't have anything.
Anything of yours...

- Nothing...
- Quiet. Sit straight.

- Sit down.
- Wait a second. Wait a second.

I kept the bag upstairs.
I'll go check it once.

Maybe it fell out.
Just let him go.

Now you're talking sense.
Go on. Hurry up.

Be quiet.

Be quiet. Be quiet.

Turn off the gas, aunty.
Otherwise, your son will cough to death.

Bloody actor.

Go on turn off the gas.

Did you find the packet?

Be quiet.

Is there a way out from the roof?

Sit properly...

I will kill you believe me.

Turn off the gas...

Keep quiet.

Oh no...

Son, I am sick.

I am going to die.

Kill me.

No, Sargun.

Aunty, stay back.

Kill me.

- Don't come any closer, aunty.
- No, Sargun.

Stay there, aunty.

- Sargun.
- Honestly, son.

- What are you hiding?
- Kill me.

Aunty, what's under the veil?

Don't come any closer or I will shoot.

Mom...

Mom...

Come here. Come on.

Come on.

Fuck!

Papa, his gun.

Fuck!

Pick it up.

Papa, pick it up!

What the fuck was that?

Maybe the transformer blew up.

But we still have light.

Omkar...

Is everything okay?

Yes, Mahajan sir, all good.

We heard a loud bang coming
from your house, and I was scared.

The washing machine was overloaded.

It blew a fuse but no harm to anyone.

Everyone's okay. Everyone's okay.

But why do you look pale?

I am the one who overloaded the machine.

And you know my family...

- If you need any help...
- Yes, of course.

You carry on with the 'Jagrata'.

Thank you.

- Glory to Mother Goddess!
- Glory to Mother Goddess!

You were so desperate for the phone.

Couldn't... Couldn't you just ask...

Why did you do it?

Now look what happened.
It's all your fault.

What should I say to you?
Don't you understand anything?

Clean up everything.
We got to get rid of him.

Wait a minute, papa.

What are you doing?
He's evidence, don't touch him.

You will ruin the Police investigation.

If Sodhi finds out

he will annihilate the
entire family overnight.

We'll tell Police the truth.

You'll be charged under
section 307 & 31 for murder and drugs.

You'll be in for a long time.

And your mother will follow suit.

Attempt to Murder under section 308.

Mother and son can rot away in jail.

"Tell them the truth."

Have faith in God.

Why would we go to jail?

God will come down to the
court and testify for you, won't he?

I've 12-years of experience
in the Police service.

Just do as I say.

Tegi, get some baking soda

that will remove blood stains.

Wait, I'll get it.

Shall I reheat the food, sir?

Give me the keys!

Give me the keys!

Where are you going? The car's parked
that way. At least give me the keys!

What's wrong with your leg?

I sprained it while
alighting from the train.

- Can't you look where you're going?
- I...

Listen, I just got home.
Just give me the keys.

Then first give me at
least 10-minutes of alone time.

Listen, papa is waiting at the door.

- I must drop the potatoes at the shop...
- Your potatoes won't rot in 10-minutes.

Listen... I'll spend the
entire day with you tomorrow.

We'll go on a date.

Wait a second, did you get a haircut?

They are looking so cute.

Listen... my leg's sprained.

How long are you going
to make me stand here?

Thank you.

Return the car before papa comes back.

Yes.

Here...
Come on. Come on.

Pick it up.

Let me give you a hand.

Stop!

Police?

The Police are here?

Lucky.

- Greetings, uncle.
- Greetings.

Greetings, aunty.

I was making my rounds
in the neighbourhood

and thought I should drop by.

Where to?

Just dropping off some
vegetables at the shop.

Everyone's going to drop vegetables?

Since Happy's here we
thought of going on a drive.

- Listen to some songs...
- Yeah, just listen to songs...

He's already showing an
attitude like an IPS officer.

- Why?
- No calls, no messages...

Won't even come out and give me a hug.

- Why not?
- He's coming.

How are you, bro?

Neat and tight turban, looks good.

It was a sudden plan.

You know what, go attend the event.

We'll see you after we return.

What happened?

What?

Are you hurt?

It's nothing...

It's nothing...

It's the vegetables.

- Beetroots are bleeding colour--
- It's just beetroot.

Get in Happy,
or the vegetables will rot.

- Come on.
- Okay, Tegi.

- See you... Shall I reverse my car?
- Yes, please do.

What happened?

- It's run out of fuel.
- Huh...

It's run out of fuel.

Come, I'll drop you in my jeep.

No, vegetables in a Police jeep.

Doesn't matter, we'll drop them
off tomorrow. They won't rot overnight.

- Doesn't matter.
- Tomorrow Punjab is closed.

No vehicles allowed.
Come, let's drop it off now.

You don't have to take the trouble.

Father will drop them off
the day after tomorrow at the shop.

- There's no problem.
- No, Happy.

We can't let the vegetables
rot at home for that long.

- Lucky, reverse your car.
- Yes.

Happy, Tegi, come on load the sack.

Come on, Tegi.

Uncle, what's wrong with you?

Great.
