24: India (2013–2016): Season 2, Episode 1 - Day 2: 10am - 11am - full transcript

Three years later; ATU receives a threat that Haroon Sherchan is planning on releasing a deadly contagious virus in Mumbai unless his brother Roshan Sherchan is released out of prison.

'Three years ago, ATU
Chief Jai Singh Rathod...'

'...spent the most difficult
24 hours of his life.'

'The people who
conspired to assassinate...'

'...the future Prime
Minister of India...'

'...used Jai Singh Rathod's
family as pawns in their conspiracy.'

'Although, within those 24 hours,
Jai saved the PM Aditya Singhania...'

'...he couldn't
save his wife...'

'...and in no time, his
whole family fell apart.'

All okay?
- See for yourself.

Is someone there? Let me go!

Leave me...



Is anyone there?

Let me go!

Fast-forward it.

Show me all the stages.

This is far more dangerous
than I had imagined.

Have you inserted the pen-drive?
-Yes, it's in body no. 2.

Pack body no. 2!

I've been here
for only 24 hours...

But it seems like 24 days.

It's disgusting.

We should get out of here now.

You're right...we
should leave now.

But not you.

'The kin of those innocent
people, who lost their lives...'



'...in the bomb blasts three years ago,
may finally get some relief tomorrow...'

'...as Roshan Sherchan,
Nepal based drug lord...'

'...and mastermind behind those deadly
blasts... will be hanged till death...'

'...tomorrow morning at
7 in Pune Central Prison. '

'In 2013, Roshan Sherchan
had triggered these blasts...'

'...in seven big trains and
markets in the country...'

'...killing approximately one thousand, two
hundred & forty six people in Mumbai...'

'...Delhi and
Bangalore collectively.'

'Roshan Sherchan planned this
attack to take revenge on India.'

'Anti-Narcotics
Bureau and ATU...'

'...had nearly wiped
out his drug network.'

'At this juncture we'd also like to
Remember, those two special officers...'

'...whose forethought and courage
resulted in the arrest of Roshan Sherchan.'

'ATU chief Jai Singh Rathod
and his partner Shibani Mallick...'

'...had risked their lives to
arrest Roshan Sherchan.'

'Sherchan and his accomplices are
locked away in Pune Central Prison.'

'In the two year long case,
testimonies by 112 people...'

'...and the investigation
lead by the ATU...'

'...proved all the allegations
against Sherchan to be true.'

'And he was
sentenced to death...'

Kiran!
- Dad?

Dad, are you okay?
- Yes.

'You don't sound okay.'

Hope they're taking
proper care in rehab?

Yes, dear. Everything's
fine out here.

I'm fine too.

What's up?

Guess what? Veer's
coming home today.

He's been posted in
Mumbai. Isn't that great?

And now, we all
can live together.

You can talk to him as well.
- But he doesn't want to talk to me.

You know that...
- Dad, that's because ...

...he hasn't recovered
from mom's death yet.

It's been three years, Kiran.

He doesn't answer
my calls... or call back.

He still thinks I'm
responsible for mom's death.

That's not true, dad. He
loves you a lot. I know it.

Then why does he
constrain himself?

Why doesn't he talk to me?

I admit...I wasn't there
when he needed me the most.

Not for you...or
Veer...or your mom.

This thing still disturbs me.

Wish I could say sorry
and give him a hug.

That'll happen, dad. I promise.

Just, come home soon.

I'll come back, as soon
as the treatment's over.

I've to go now. Okay, dear.

I love you.
- I love you too.

Bye.
- Bye, dear.

Yes, Gyan?
- Have you made all the arrangements?

Yes, I'll be leaving in a while.

It has to be a
foolproof plan, Jai.

I know that... If I call
back, the job's finished.

If I don't, then I am.

What's wrong?

Where's your mind?

What're you thinking, Aditya?
- I'm thinking about this city.

You know, I share a
unique bond with Mumbai.

It's a love-hate relationship!

I can't forget that this city took
away dad and Div ya from me.

And mom...

You've been torturing
yourself with the same thought...

...for the past three years.

Stop punishing yourself, Adi.

As far as your
mom's concerned...

...well, she'll be here
any moment to see you.

Mom's coming here?

I had sent her a message,
told her that I'm busy...

And that we'll talk
over the phone.

She knows you'll
make that excuse...

...and avoid her again.

Since you had her retire from the
Party, haven't you done this every time?

So instead of calling,
she's coming over...

What do you mean
by 'in a while'?

This is not some call-center
where you can put me on hold.

You should have all the information of
the PM's movements on your fingertips.

Always!

Ma'am, I...
- Not ma'am... Mallick!

How many times
do I have to tell you?

Listen up, everyone!

Today is the last day of Prime
Minister Aditya Singhania in Mumbai.

His security's been
handled smoothly until now.

And I don't want any
goof-ups on the last day.

I want updates every 30 minutes.

What happened three years
ago, should not happen again.

Nothing will happen to the
PM under our watch. Get it?

Until the PM leaves Mumbai...
you're all on high alert.

And high alert means...

I want all the answers
before I ask the question.

Am I clear?
- Yes, Mallick.

Thank you.

'I want all the answers
before I ask the question.'

Are we agents or astrologers?

She's such a bitch.

Why? I find her cute.
- Really?

I thought you're a fan
of Jai Singh Rathod.

So?

Everyone who works
here admires Jai.

He's the dude.

Jai's style was different.

Is that why ATU chucked him out?

Hey-hey-hey...calm down.

He's in rehab.

Do you have any clue how much he
has endured in the last three years?

I'm sure he'll be back.

He's the best ATU chief ever.

But yes, Mallick's sexier.

And very hot too.

Vedant... I respected you
a lot more till a minute ago.

Where can I find Abu Tandoori?

Hey look, he's come here to die.

Stop! Search him.

Search him properly.
He's very cunning.

What's this, Rathod?
Your watch is not working.

I know my watch
has stopped working...

...but you
guys...your time is up.

Take him.

Go on... go, go!

Go upstairs.

Come, let's start again.

Jai Singh Rathod. Come.

Sit down!

I guess my prayers have
finally been answered today.

Since you did this to my face...

...I dream about
killing you every day.

And it's going to turn
into a reality today.

By the way, have
you gone bonkers...

...to come all the way here...

...unarmed... alone?

Muzzaffar has sent me
here. He's furious with you.

You shouldn't have
double-crossed him.

Muzzaffar...

Muzzaffar is a dim-witted fool.

A guy who can be so
easily double-crossed...

...should rot in prison.

Anyway, I'm having a
lot of fun these days...

With his money...

And with his missy too.

He's not bothered
about the money...

But what you did to
his wife, disturbs him.

What do you think?
What's going on upstairs?

Boss must be having fun.

Now watch my shot...

Come on...let's go...let's go.

The teeth are completely
abraded...and stiff too.

He definitely experienced
a lot of pain before dying.

Get that checked, Dr. Dixit.
- Yes, Dr. Mehta.

His entire body is
filled with sores...

...and the color of his
skin has also changed.

Tissue is completely damaged.

There's excessive bleeding...

Internal and external.

This is the first time I've
seen such symptoms.

Just a minute, Dr. Mehta.
- What is it?

Pen drive?
- Yes.

Get it sanitized...and
recover the data from IT.

This doesn't look good.

Bread and broth. Wow!

Welcome-welcome-welcome,
Mr. Rathod.

What's that? Is that
blood on your hands?

Yeah, but it's not mine.

Why don't you wash-up first?

You see...I am a
pure vegetarian pundit.

Then you can make
yourself comfortable...

...and enjoy B.E.S.T
Shankar's homemade meal.

Why are you called B.E.S.T Shankar?
- I was a bus driver, for the B.E.S.T.

...for 25 years.

Earned jack...

Saved squat...

Then one day, a man
came under my bus.

Game over.

It wasn't my fault, sir.

But the crowd bashed me up.

And I even lost my job.

Then I got a job as a
transporter in Pune prison.

I go there thrice a week...

...take care of the special
needs of the inmates.

...except for girls.

I make more than I did
as a driver for 25 years.

I asked for a trailer but you
showed me the whole film.

Shall we talk business now?
- Look, sir...

Muzzaffar will help you
only when you do his job.

Open the bag.
- Yes.

What the...!

Have you lost your mind?

Muzzaffar wanted proof...
not his severed head.

Couldn't you just take a
selfie with your phone?

This was easier for me.
- What do you mean?

What if someone sees
me with this head now?

I'll be thrown in prison...

You anyway go
there thrice a week.

This time you can be
dressed as an inmate.

You'll look good.

Where's the stuff?
- Come, it's inside. Yuck!

Come on.

This is a plastic explosive...

...wired with the
triggering machine like this.

Charge 'ON'.

And this is the remote.

Press this...and BOOM.

Fire and smoke
will spread rapidly.

But how will you reach it to Muzzaffar?
- Simple.

Tucked in a soap bar.

Every Tuesday...I deliver
soaps to the inmates.

'One soap...job done.'

Good...now go and eat.

Hey... Pune Mental Hospital is just
half a kilometer from Pune prison.

Get yourself checked-in there.

"If you're watching
this pen-drive, then..."

"...you must have examined
that man's body as well."

"And you know there's
something in that man's blood..."

"...which your doctors
have never seen before."

"This is because it's
a new kind of virus..."

"...which we've created
in our laboratory."

"And as you can see in the
video, it's a very dangerous virus."

"Within an hour it causes
fever and body ache."

"In three hours the
organs start to bleed."

"First of all, the nose."

"In four hours, cough."

"And in 10 hours, the
pain becomes unbearable."

"And the virus starts to
feed on the host's organs."

"In 24 hours, either
the man will die..."

"...or commit suicide
because of the pain."

"There's nothing
you can do to stop it."

"There is no cure, no vaccine."

"This virus spreads
through air..."

"...through cough,
cold...and a sneeze."

"Think about it and imagine what'll
happen if we release 50 people..."

"... infected with this
virus in Mumbai?"

"A genocide that the
world has never seen."

"There's just one
way to avert it."

"Roshan Sherchan's freedom."

"You've got six hours."

"If you don't release
Roshan Sherchan..."

"...then we'll release
this virus in Mumbai."

"And whatever
happens after that..."

"...the Indian government and
Aditya Singhania will be responsible."

Dr. Mehta?

Whoever it is, he's
absolutely right.

We've run all tests.

There is no other virus
that can kill a human body...

...so quickly in this manner.

It's far more dangerous
than the Ebola virus.

But I don't understand.

If it's so dangerous then
why aren't we affected?

That's because this virus
dies once the host is dead.

It only develops in
living human beings.

And according to the video...

...it starts to show
symptoms after three hours.

It's called the
incubation period.

The virus doesn't
travel during that period.

After three hours, the
nose starts to bleed.

And four hours later, cough.

That's when it spreads
to other people around.

Mihir.
- Mallick.

Assemble everyone for briefing.
- Okay.

Would Roshan Sherchan
still be executed?

Yes...just like it was decided.

Tomorrow morning...7 o'clock.

Open the door. Open it.

Hey, rascal, get up.

Hurry up...

Get up...

Get up quickly.

Where are we going, Mara the?
- To hell.

Insects like you will
spread filth wherever you go.

Your execution date
has been preponed.

My lawyer said it's tomorrow.

Tomorrow.
- It's today, today.

You can't do this, Mara the.
- I can do anything, you dog.

Lift him up. Undo
his handcuffs, undo it.

And his feet. Untie his feet.
- What're you doing?

Now tie his hands at the back.
- Hey...

Tie them behind him.
- Mara the, what're you doing?

It's tomorrow.
- Quiet!

Mara the!
- Shut up.

Bring him, come on.

Mara the, it's tomorrow.

Open the door.

It's tomorrow.

It's today!

You will die today.

You've killed so many innocent
people, you think we'll let you free?

Well, let me be
more specific about...

...what's going to
happen in there.

The earth will slip
from under your feet.

Do you understand what it means?

I'll tell you.

We'll tie up your
hands and feet tightly.

And cover your
face with a cloth.

As soon as we pull the lever...

...your feet will dangle in midair.
- Don't do it, Mara the.

That's what I meant by 'the earth will slip from under your feet'.
- Mara the...

You won't be able
to speak, in fact...

...your tongue will
stick out of your mouth.

Hey...

And from outside, it'll look
as if a lizard is struggling.

Mara the!

And the best part is...

You won't be knocked out,
throughout the experience.

All this may take
about 13 minutes.

Those 13 minutes will
seem like 13 years to you.

Today is not the date, Mara the.

It is not today!
- Come on.

Mara the...it's not today.

Come on!

Yes.

Jai Singh Rathod.

ATU Chief. I'm
here on official duty.

I want to question
Roshan Sherchan.

Sorry, sir, we haven't
been informed that...

...anyone's coming over to meet Sherchan...
- Jai. - If you could...

Good to see you.

Sir, he's here to meet Sherchan,
but his name is not on our list.

It's okay. He's the ATU chief.

He had caught
Roshan, let him in.

He'll park your car.

Come!

Open the gates.

Deputy superintendent Bhonsle.
- Good morning, sir.

Good morning.

Come, Jai.

You know, Jai, he's a
high security prisoner.

We have to follow many a
protocol before the death sentence.

Without the permission
letter from the Home Ministry...

...no one can meet him.

And I haven't received
any such letter for you.

But I put in the
request yesterday itself.

I'm surprised you
haven't got it yet.

You know the pace at which
Government officers work.

It's okay, I'll arrange
for it and come back.

Sorry for the trouble.

Just a minute, Jai!

Meet him.

Mara the! Mara the!
- Come on!

Look, Mara the,
even I know the law.

If you do this, then
you will face problems.

I'll have to face problems?
- Yes.

Fine.

You know the law?
- Yes, I do.

Kill the bastard

Kill him!

Kill the bastard

Kill the bastard

Who said that?

Who said that?

Bloody rascals...

Roshan Sherchan is a lion.

Kill him!

You're a dog.

By the way, what do you
want to know from Sherchan?

During the interrogation,
Sherchan did tell us a few things...

...but he also
withheld many things...

...about his drug racket...

...his foreign
accounts, his assets.

And especially his
brother Haroon...

...who's still beyond our grasp.

He'll be executed tomorrow.

I thought maybe on the verge
of death, he may spill everything.

Roshan Sherchan is far
worse than the devil, Jai!

Come on.

Guards!
- Sir.

Where is Sherchan?

Mara the sir took him to the gallows...
- What?

Come on.

Come.

Bring him in.
- Mara the...

Come on.

Look! Didn't I tell you...

...you'll die today!

Come on.

Leave me...leave me...

Mara the...how much
money do you want?

I will give you.

You want to bribe me?

Bribing me, uh?

Bring him along. Come on.
- Mara the...

Come on.

Come up...

See...

Come on.

Do it.

Put the noose around him.

Mara the!

Mara the!

Put the noose around him.

Sherchan!

One...
- Mara the.

Two...

No, Mara the...

Three!

Take it off... take
the noose off.

This was just a
practice session.

The real match is tomorrow.

Had fun?

Had fun?

Mara the! What's going on?

I was just fooling
around with this rascal.

Death in a single blow
is not enough for him...

...he should be
hung at least twice.

Mara the, this is wrong.

It's against the procedure.

Bhonsle.
- Yes, sir.

Take Roshan back to his cell.
- Yes, sir.

Mara the, you come to my cabin.
- Sir.

These visuals
clearly indicate that...

...this is a completely new
kind of a threat which the ATU...

...or this country has
never faced before.

A weaponized virus.

A weaponized virus, meaning?

Dr. Mehta!

Until 50 years ago,
the viruses were natural.

Meaning...occurring naturally.

But now humans have invented
a method to create them in labs.

And also to use them as weapons.

It can take thousands and
millions of lives in the blink of an eye.

Like a chemical weapon.

Yes.

But chemical weapons
and bombs have a limitation.

A radius.

They can work only within
that range and not beyond.

But these viruses have
no limitation or boundary.

Could there be a vaccine for it?
- Why not?

But it would take
years to develop one.

So what does all this mean?
- It means, Vedant...

...that if this virus spreads in
Mumbai, then within a month...

...it can wipe
out the entire city.

And it's difficult to stop it.

I mean it won't limit
itself to Mumbai...

...in fact, it will spread to every
city, every state of this country.

Within six months, half the
population of India will be dead.

Police, army...all
the services...

...the entire economy of
this country will be finished.

And before anyone knows, it will
spread across the borders as well...

...to other countries.

It's a threat to
the entire world.

Genocide...which
no one can stop.

People who sent us this video...

...have threatened us to
release Roshan Sherchan.

I think, his brother
Haroon is behind this.

Pull up every detail we
have on him in our database.

His drug rings, his
dealers, his associates.

His bank accounts,
accountants...

His fake companies...
everything.

Everything ever recorded
about him, I want all of it.

Now our only focus will
be Haroon Sherchan.

Careful Maya... relax!

I'm used to your wild nature,
but the poor horse is not!

If you get scared,
the horse will sense it.

I mean it.

Come on...shrug off your
fear and chuck it away.

Chuck it towards
me...come on, do it.

I'll catch it.

That's more like it.

See...the horse calmed
down when you did.

Didn't I tell you?

Are you staring?

Yes, you're staring.

I'm sure you never saw such a
beautiful horse-rider in the city.

Come here.

Come on.
- Really?

Yeah...

Balraj.
- Yes, boss.

Lower your eyes.

Lower them.

Lower them.

If you stare at her again,
I will gouge your eyes out.

Understood?

Go on.

Go do your work.

Perfect!

Perfect! Perfect! You're
looking really nice.

Haroon!
- Yes.

Haroon, there's a problem.
- Omkar, there's always tension on your face.

Don't you see I'm teaching
your daughter horse riding?

Haroon, your horse, Rambo...
- What happened to Rambo?

That new guy was
loading him on the truck.

But Rambo slipped
and fell, and got injured.

Rambo!

What did you do?

Sir...

Shut up! His leg is broken.

Do you know what he's worth?

Few millions more than
your entire clan can earn.

He can't run now,
what's the point.

He can't do anything now.

I must kill it now.

And you'll make 'me' do it.

I become the sinner?

Forgive me!

Haroon!

Haroon, he was my friend's son.
- So what?

I only lightened his burdened.

He couldn't take care of a
horse worth seven million...

How would he take care
of his worthless father?

Now go, bury him somewhere.

And you, go get the
doctor. And get him treated.

I can't see animals in pain.
- You're an animal yourself!

You're crazy.

What did you say?

Haroon!

Haroon, let father go.

Haroon!
- I will shoot you.

Haroon, let him go.
- Get lost...

How dare you hit
him? Let father go!

Nasty little thing, aren't you?

Come inside.
- Haroon.

Leave me.

Come on.
- Haroon, I said leave my hand.

Haroon! Leave her.

Leave me alone.
- Leave her.

Will you come inside as well?

What a shameless father!

But I don't care.

You can even invite a few of
your friends for the matinee.

The show is going to go on...

Haroon, I said please let me go.

Haroon, I said please let me go.

Whoever this dead guy
is, he was a drug addict.

We found needle
marks on his body...

...and traces of
cocaine in his blood.

This virus was
either injected...

...or inhaled through the nose.

I'm sure Haroon will try to spread
this virus through his drug network.

We must stop him. And
we have very little time.

Right now, someone in
the city has this virus...

...and they're
planning to deliver it.

Hello.
- Where are you?

Just about to leave.
- You should've been there by now.

You don't get paid to be late.
- Sorry.

Listen, I'll call back
in 10 minutes...

...to give you the
exact address.

But leave now.

Kush.
- Yes, mom.

Come, breakfast's
ready. Have a quick bite.

Not now, mom. I've an
urgent delivery, I must go now.

How long will it take to
eat two pieces of bread?

I said not now, mom.

I'll be fired if I don't
deliver it on time.

Can we afford that?
- That's right.

I feel happy and
also sad to see you...

...work so hard.

If your father
still had his job...

...you could be out having
fun with your friends.

Mom...

A job at this age...
- Have I ever complained?

I'll come back and eat.

I'm leaving.
- How many times have I told you?

Never say 'I'm
leaving' while going out.

Always say, 'See
you soon'. Say it.

See you soon!

Okay.
- Go carefully.

I didn't expect this from a
senior officer like you, Mara the.

I'm sorry, sir.

But, sir, I hate him.

He killed my brother...

...in that train blast.

Sir, if I could I'd
hang him every day.

Mara the! I already have a
lot of things to worry about.

Don't add to my stress.
- Yes, sir.

Nothing of this sort
should happen again.

Or else I'll take
disciplinary action.

Sorry, sir.

-Come, Jai. I'll take
you to meet Roshan.

Joshi! Just watch what
my brother does to you.

I'll strip you and Mara the...

...and hang you on the street.

Jai, be careful.

Great Jai Singh Rathod!

If only my hands reached you...

...I would break your neck.

Break it!

But remember...

You break my neck, and
all your hopes will shatter.

What hopes?
- To escape from here.

Escape?

Who will get me out of here?
- I will...

I got you in here...
I will get you out.
