A story is like a pond.

You can't see things clearly at first.

But once you take a dip,

one by one, the secrets start surfacing.

They confront you.

Hold your breath along with me

as the secrets are
about to be uncovered.

But you already know the secret.

I am Adya Jaisingh.

And this is my story.

Sanjay sir?



Sanjay sir?

Sanjay!

Sanjay!

Me and my daughter,
we both love sago dish.

And she always asks
me to cook it. And...

And… it's done!

Now let's do one thing…

What do they say
in the TubeShube videos?

First, click on it, then
like it, and after that…

after that?

What is the word?
What is it called?

Oh, man!

- Hello, Ranade?
- Yes, sir?

What do they say in the TubeShube videos?
Click, like and then?



Subscribe, sir.

Yes, subscribe!

- Thank you.
- Okay.

Don't forget to subscribe.

We have become famous.

We?

Not you and me, silly.

We as in, me and Tahir.

They won't be able to reach us
unless I want them to.

But, sister…

Listen, Gogu.
We have everything under control.

But sometimes certain things
are out of our control.

Like last night.
But now it's all good.

Sister, I think it's a big screwup.

Don't think, Gogu. Don't think.

Leave that to me, please.

You continue to play Parth.

That's all I need you
to focus on. Okay?

Okay.

What's this?

Urmi, not omelet again!

Come on, man.

Are you stalking Lokesh?

I've never seen a foodie like him.

He should've become a chef.

Don't take him lightly.

He is the smartest CID Officer
I've worked with, till date.

He was investigating some
very powerful people seven years ago.

Those scoundrels
killed his wife and kid.

What do you mean by killed?

He always talks about them.

If he has any problem with his phone,
he says his daughter helps him out.

- When his wife cooks well...
- Urmi.

His wife and his daughter were killed.

Six years ago.

When he returned home
after completing the final rituals…

the way he went after them…

he managed to put
every culprit behind bars.

They had a lot of political backing.

But Lokesh…

He didn't spare them.

He kept going after them.

And then?

Then…

he was transferred.

Not a transfer,

it was like a demotion.

All the culprits were
released soon thereafter.

Had Lokesh not been bound
by the police oath…

he would have butchered them all.

I wish somewhere it happened that way!

Anyway, however, he may seem…

he is like a Doberman.

Once he digs his teeth into something…

he doesn't let go of it easily.

Fuck!

Parth!

Sit.

Sure.

Come on. Can we not be children
about this, please?

Yesterday, we got a little too drunk.

I guess we were
happy crazy about the awards.

It happens.

It's done.

Now… forget it. Okay?

The herb potatoes are really good.

- Did you try them?
- I will.

I don't see Sanjay sir around.

Did he have breakfast?

I don't know.
I went to his room as well.

I can't get through to him
on the phone either.

- Isn't this a very beautiful place?
- Yes.

He must have gone for a walk.

You don't know Mr. Shekhawat
that well yet.

He is allergic to walks.

Long walk indeed!

But yes…

if he finds a bar open,
he would surely go miles.

That's funny.

Meetu.

Meetu.

- Coffee?
- No.

I am…

I am so sorry.

Whatever happened last night…

It won't happen again.

Please don't cry.

We haven't pressed any charges
against you yet.

We just want to talk to your daughters
because when that girl was attacked…

your daughters were
the only ones present there.

Yes, they were inside!
Someone locked them from the outside!

Ten minutes and my lawyer
will be here.

After that, be ready to give
an explanation. I mean it!

Sir…

Sir, these are the two girls.

Ranade madam, coffee's finished.

Can I offer tea instead?

Tahir, whose handle is "WazirlsDead"?

Where is Meetu Mathur?

What's your statement?

- Tahir?
- You want my statement?

Here is my statement!

Call Tahir Wazir.

Sir.

What should we do about them?

Let them go.

The one that we are looking for…

will not come
with his mom and dad.

Journalists do their job
with great sincerity.

But celebrities like Tahir Wazir
stop us from doing our jobs.

They disrespect us.

The way Tahir Wazir has reacted,

it's evident that
there's something fishy.

What is he trying to hide?

We assure you that we will soon
bring you the complete story.

It's a shame that celebrities like
Tahir Wazir behave in such a manner.

The truth is right in front
of your eyes…

Enough of this nonsense.

Meetu, don't worry.

We don't know who "WazirlsDead" is,
what he wants, and why he is targeting us.

But don't worry, he will not win.
Okay?

But he is already winning.

Not until he stops us
from leading our lives.

Right?

Just relax.

Come along.

Parth!

Did you find Sanjay?

No. I knocked many times,
but he won't open the door.

I am getting the door opened.

No matter how much he drinks
he always…

wakes up on time.

Sanjay?

Do something.

Sanjay?

Yes, go in!

Sanjay!

Sanjay!

Sanjay!

Shit!

Sanjay.

Sanjay, no!

Were just the three of you here?

No, sir. There were
six of us from the company.

For what?

We had an award function
for advertising.

- Did you win an award?
- Yes, sir.

Then you must have celebrated too.

Of course.

Oh, Sanjay!

Yeah, Mayanka.

What?

Sanjay? When?

Hello?

Ranade.

We have to go to Rajasthan.

Sanjay can't commit suicide, sir.

Madam, it could've been
an accident too.

You saw that he was drunk.

He got into the bathtub
with a bottle of wine.

- Wine?
- He hit his head on the edge.

No, sir.

No, Sanjay hated wine, sir!

Madam, after drinking so much…

it doesn't matter what you drink.

Yes, okay. Okay, fine.

Sir.

The CCTV footage will be
available in some time.

- Of last twelve hours?
- Yes, sir.

Let's go.

Mayanka, let me just check
what they are doing.

Why am I coming with you?

Why did you bring me?

From the time we left home,
all the media people were stalking me.

- And I...
- For fuck's sake, Meetu!

You have been attacked. Twice!

And now Sanjay is dead.

What's so difficult to understand?

- Take a look at the swimming pool.
- Okay, sir.

This one over there.

The one who got out of that room.

- This one, from the corridor.
- Yes, sir.

Zoom in a little.

What's happening?

Try again. Why is it getting stuck?

- Please check.
- I have no idea, sir.

How come it's getting stuck?

I don't know what's the issue.

Sir.

The CID is here from Mumbai.

Where?

They're at the reception.

- Take care of it. I'll be there.
- Okay.

Show me the live feed.

No, sir.

It's complimentary.

Hello?

Yes, sir?

Whose room is this?

Someone from the group?

Yes, sir.
Parth Acharya.

He is Mayanka Wazir's…

Who is he to her?

I know.

Sir.

I am Sub-inspector Rajesh Bhati.

Good.

I have a very important
question for you.

- It's a serious question.
- Yes, sir?

What is baati churma called in Rajasthan?

Is it baati or bhati?

I know it. It's baati.

Greetings!

Excuse me. Mayanka?
Mayanka Kapoor, please.

Isn't he Tahir Wazir?
He is all over the news.

Sir, actually what has happened…

- Madam, I know what has happened...
- Sir, please?

Can you please stop it?

- Just stop it! Please.
- Please, just one...

Please!

Madam, I know it. Just give me
the room number right now.

Sir, please, wait here.
I will inform her.

Sir, it's not a murder.
It's an accident.

That's why I was wondering
why the CID is getting involved in this.

Sir, he got drunk
and got into the bathtub.

And he drowned.

What does the forensic report say?

What does the autopsy report say?

- Chaudhary, call them.
- Yes, sir.

He was last seen in the CCTV
camera footage at 4:30 a.m.

And the body was found at 8:00 a.m.

- Yeah, Sukanya?
- Tahir, what the fuck is going on?

Sukanya, I don't have time
for your nonsense right now.

- I'll call you later.
- I don't have time for your nonsense.

- This is crazy.
- Okay. What?

- Did you steal the story?
- What?

If there is any truth in
what is being circulated on Tweaker,

then you are in big trouble.

- Just check your account!
- Yes, okay.

"Dear whore, people should know
that you had stolen that story.

Now it's time for me
to tell the truth to the world."

Sir, the reports state that…

the death occurred due to
injury at the back of his head.

The official report will be
available in two days.

Sir, actually,
the cause of death

is a subcranial blunt injury.

Here.

At the back of the head.

The real investigation starts now.

Who's the culprit?

Let's go.

We must meet him.

Murder?

No, no.

Now tell us…

why did Sanjay come to your room
and what exactly transpired?

I understand you are deeply shaken.

But this is not the time
to stay quiet.

CCTV.

You said you had access to
the CCTV footage.

Then check there!

Where did Sanjay go
after he left my room?

Well, sadly, the CCTV got stuck
after he left your room.

We don't have the footage after that.

But whoever has done this…

has to be an IT genius.

Mayanka!

Mayanka!

Oh, my God!

Can you leave us alone for a minute?

Please.

Don't cry, baby. Don't.

Okay, don't cry. Please.

Is it true?

Did you steal the story?

No!

Oh, God, you did it.

Oh, God, it's true.

From Rajasi, taking a detour.

Where have you landed,
Ms. Meetu Mathur?

See, I made mini poetry of it.

You are missing your family, aren't you?

- From your hometown.
- I don't have a family, sir.

I don't have one either.

Rajshree Sweets.

Whenever I see you, I miss
the sweets from that place.

Surprising! I mentioned such a delicacy
from your hometown, and…

you didn't even react?

Well, I grew up eating sweets from
other shop. Kamdhenu Sweets, you know?

Shahori Gali, near Parineeta Ghat.

From there.

No, it's not!

I… I haven't stolen it.

I didn't steal the story.
I mean…

it's not mine but…

I didn't steal it, Mayanka.

They narrated it.
I got inspired and wrote it.

I am not a bloody thief.

And I wrote it…

when you and Sanjay
were having an affair.

After that…

I was fucking lost.

I tried to kill myself.

You tried to kill yourself.

But you didn't die like Sanju!

Sir.

Sir, see this.

- Are you alright?
- Yes.

You can wait at the restaurant.

No, I'm fine here.
Thank you, ma'am.

"Raand, Saand…"

What is this?
Some sort of a code?

It's the title of a book, sir.

Raand, Saand, Seedhi, Sanyasi.

"If you can overcome these hurdles,
you attain salvation."

- Yes.
- Saint Kabir.

Sir, it is connected to the story.

- Tahir Wazir has stolen it...
- That is not true.

It is Tahir sir's original idea.

- Yes.
- Yes!

Words of a true fan.

Ma'am, may I tell you something?

You may pray to God
as much as you want…

an idol is always made of mud.

You fix this, Tahir Wazir.

"WazirlsGod" is not a fan of yours.

He knows you since
you heard this story…

and stole it.

- Now he is holding you accountable for it.
- Oh, shut up, Mayanka.

Go downstairs right now.

And tell the truth to that CID officer!

Because…

because who is safe now?

Who knows, the next
murder investigation could be mine!

Seriously, will you just stop it?
Have you lost it?

You lost it!

Just look around you!

All the people around you…

all are being targeted. Damn it!

Fuck!

Gogu?

Listen to me, Gogu.
Listen to me. It's okay.

It's over.

You did good. It's over.

Gogu.

You are fine.

Stop it, stop it.

Sir, after winning the award…

we all had a celebration.

We got too drunk.
After that, you know…

I don't know.
I don't know anything.

You tell me.

How can someone…

cross a line…

while being in a relationship?

People fall when they get drunk.

But how much does one
need to drink to fall this low?

Sir, I…

I don't understand
what you are saying. I…

I am not in any relationship, sir.

But she is.

Your boss.

Anyway, let it be.

Your sex life is yours.

Look…

you were awake after Sanjay's death.

And from my experience,
I can say…

that you are a peeping Tom.

Right?

Peekaboo!

Now tell me, what do you know?

What did you see?
What happened?

Sir, I…

I didn't see anything
of that sort, sir.

Then what sort of things
did you see?

Sir…

I assume, Sanjay sir might have
seen Mayanka leaving my room.

Mayanka had her shoes
in her hands.

And…

her zip…

her zip was slightly undone.

Cover your ears.

Do you think I look like…

India's biggest idiot to you?

Zip, zip.

Your zip was open too.

Sir, I…

I mean to say I think that…

maybe Sanjay Sir
must have got very angry.

But Mayanka ma'am and Sanjay sir
were in a relationship.

Yes, sir.

Sir, actually...

Sorry, sir.

Yes, Salvi?

Salvi, slow down.

Say it again.

From his account?

Is it confirmed?

Are you sure?

Shall I tell Lokesh sir?

Are you a hundred percent sure?

Okay, bye.
I'll talk to you later.

Fuck!

Sorry.

This is mine.

I'd been waiting to use the washroom
since I was back from the airport.

But you were with Tahir.

Sir, him and his wife…

I didn't want to intrude
in their personal space.

I asked him and he said
I could use his washroom.

Sir.

Sister.

We are okay.

We are fine.

We got this.

- What?
- Yes, sir.

Sir, Salvi called me, from my team.

Sir, for the last 24 hours
we've been checking this.

There is zero percent doubt.

We have no doubt that he is
"WazirlsGod" since day one.

But then…

who is "WazirlsDead"?

"WazirlsGod" and "WazirlsDead".

Are these two different people?

That means…

"WazirlsGod" was in Mumbai.

And "WazirlsDead" is here…

in the resort?

Wow! What a partnership!

- Arrest them!
- Sir.

Gogu.

Twist in the tale.

I fucking love it.

Oh, yeah!

Chapter five.
