Bestseller (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Candy on the wall! - full transcript
Lokesh is certain that answers to the case can be found in Tahir's bestselling book. His journey to mountains gives him new insight. Would Lokesh-Ranade partnership uncover a few more secrets?
It's human nature…
to believe that we are indestructible.
We are immortal, we are invincible.
Maybe to some extent, it's true.
Because we die, but our stories
live forever.
Somewhere amongst the ashes
and the remains,
exist traces of our story.
Story that Tahir narrated,
and the one
now we are narrating to him.
Tahir, why are you under arrest?
- Mr. Tahir, tell us.
- Please, move back.
- Please, everyone, go back.
- Tahir.
- Please, say something.
- Please, madam.
- Everyone wants to know, Tahir.
- Please, go back.
Tahir Wazir and his wife
have been arrested.
And we have no clue
how soon they will be released.
But we will wait here and see…
Yes?
I am here for Tahir Wazir.
The press is not allowed here, madam.
I am not the press.
Family? Lawyer?
- I am his editor, I really need to...
- Still not allowed, madam.
You can go, madam.
Ma'am?
- Sukanya ma'am?
- Yes.
Will Tahir sir be alright?
Sorry, you are?
I am his assistant.
He was with me last night.
- And since then...
- What?
No…
- I mean...
- Tahir was with you?
So, tell me, why was he arrested?
It's not his fault, ma'am.
- He was with me when all this happened.
- What happened?
The police believe that
Mayanka ma'am and Tahir sir…
are involved in Sanjay sir's case.
What is going on?
Ma'am…
Sanjay sir is dead.
- So…
- What?
Sanjay is dead?
What the fuck!
Look, we haven't done anything.
I wasn't even in Neemrana when…
Sanju died.
But your wife was.
Are you mental?
- Is he fucking mental?
- Hey, hey!
I'm repeating myself.
There's a lady here.
Behave yourself.
Any witnesses?
For what?
Is there a witness who can confirm that
you were in Mumbai the night before?
Where is Mayanka?
Are you questioning her separately
in another room?
Sir, there's no need to be so dramatic.
She's using the bathroom.
Fuck, Sanjay!
Oh, God! Sanjay!
- May I?
- Thank you.
Oh, thank you!
You didn't have to.
Okay, so, one second.
Why was Tahir arrested?
I mean, he wasn't even
in Neemrana, as you said.
Yes, ma'am. He was at home.
- With you?
- Yes.
You guys are ridiculous!
Okay.
Well, if you insist,
but you know your job perfectly well.
What job?
Making faking accounts.
And deleting Neemrana's
CCTV footage from Mumbai.
- What the hell are you guys...
- Enough!
Enough, Tahir!
Just tell him.
The more we try to hide it,
the more complicated this will get.
Just tell them that
we're the victims here.
Tell him!
How can you let
a guy like Lokesh run CID?
I mean really, Digvijay?
I am Tahir's lawyer.
I know that the guy was drunk.
Even the local police
are calling it an accident.
Look, he was already drunk.
He went to his room
and had another drink.
And in that condition, he got
the stupid idea of getting into the tub.
He slipped, hit his head. Over!
It's as simple as that.
There's nothing more to it.
And for God's sake!
That Lokesh Pramanik…
He thinks this is a murder
because my client told him
that Sanjay never drank wine.
Okay.
I am "WazirlsGod".
Who praises you all the time.
Who speaks highly of you.
Who also gets into a fight with others.
I used to do that!
But the account was hacked.
He is the same guy who hacked
the account and deleted the footage.
Thank you very much…
for admitting at least this much.
Well…
now it's obvious that you are
"WazirlsDead" as well.
Come on! I am not "WazirlsDead".
I am not crazy!
Will I attack my own assistant?
And won't she recognize me?
Come on.
You guys are morons, man.
Does this look like me?
He's somebody much shorter.
He's got a limp.
He's some young guy.
This is Sukanya ma'am.
Tahir sir's editor.
And this is Parth.
He works with Mayanka ma'am.
Hi, I'm Parth.
Ma'am, is there's anything
you can do?
I am trying.
"WazirlsGod" is a PR exercise gone wrong.
I agree my client made a mistake.
But what I don't understand is,
why are you framing him for murder?
Come on, ma'am. Sir.
Can I get a cappuccino?
Actually, forget it.
I'll get it at home.
The lady on table 7 left this behind.
She must be outside.
Return it to her, please.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- Hey! Tahir sir.
- Move aside.
- Sir, Mayanka ma'am.
- Move back.
Tahir, sir! Look here!
Sir, we need an answer!
- Ma'am, say something!
- Tahir, we need to talk.
Sir, sir.
We'll talk later.
I don't have time for this right now.
- No, but seriously...
- Not right now! I'll speak to you later.
Sir, are you alright?
I'm okay.
Let's go home.
- I'll see you at home.
- Tahir, get in!
Now!
Ma'am, please.
Sir, you can't go like this.
Sir, can I…
Let's go.
- Sir, answer us.
- Ma'am, just one question.
- Ma'am!
- Sir.
Fuck!
No, no, no.
Mister, can you take me back
to the coffee shop, please?
Excuse me, can you please get up?
Excuse me. I left my debit card.
My debit card was here.
I think I misplaced my debit card.
Can you just check?
- Can your leg just...
- Ma'am.
- Yeah?
- Is anything wrong?
Yes, I was here half an hour ago,
and I think I left my debit card here.
On this…
- Excuse me.
- Yes, ma'am?
I gave you my debit card.
I think I left it here.
- What is the name on the card?
- Adya. Adya Jaisingh.
But I gave it back.
What? To whom?
To the lady who accompanied you.
She told me she will give it to you.
Really? How could you do that?
You just gave my debit card to anyone!
What's wrong with you guys?
- Sorry, ma'am.
- Sorry, ma'am.
Don't play the innocent with me.
I know you. And more
importantly, I met her today.
- The way she was talking about you...
- What?
This habit of yours.
Whenever you react to
an uncomfortable question
by saying "what",
it means you are lying.
Listen, what do you
have to do with this?
What do you care about this situation?
Whether I sleep with her or not,
what's your problem?
I'm just looking out for you, Tahir.
- Oh, really?
- No, seriously.
You will be in trouble if your intern
presses charges for sexual harassment.
And if you wanted to cheat on Mayanka,
there are others out there.
Why an employee?
Tahir, I know she is your type,
and I…
Your employee's card.
Sukanya ma'am, the cafe's manager
said they gave you my card.
I gave it to Tahir.
Oh, thank you, ma'am.
Meetu?
- Meetu Mathur, right?
- Yes, ma'am.
Do you use two names?
Your card says…
- An...
- Adya.
That's right.
Why does it say Adya Jaisingh?
Ma'am, that was my mom's
name and after her death...
Not interested.
I told you.
I told you to be very careful
of this #MeetuMathur.
But no.
What did she do?
Did she fan your ego?
Did she say how great you are
and how talented you are?
That's it?
Was that enough
for you to slip, Tahir?
Oh, really?
And how easily were you
distracted with Sanjay?
Wow!
It all comes back to
the same conversation.
And what did you do, Tahir?
What was your contribution
to put me in that situation?
Every day you pushed me a little.
And when I was…
when I was completely broken…
did you do anything?
Nothing at all.
Is Tahir sir at home?
He's inside.
Yes.
I can't believe this. I…
you're sleeping with
your assistant and I…
I'm giving explanations.
You know what?
I slept with Sanjay.
But I told you the truth.
And you got a chance
to be the victim.
And I gave you this chance…
by telling you the truth.
But not anymore.
In fact, never again.
Tahir, I'm done.
Tahir sir.
Sorry, sir…
I heard everything.
I'll leave.
I'll take my stuff.
I'm sorry.
Sir, Sukanya ma'am…
Well…
Sir, my card?
Sukanya ma'am
gave you my card, right?
Oh, yes.
Yeah.
Here.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
Listen…
GOGU
TWEEK, RIGHT NOW.
YOU'VE JUST BEEN TO JAIL, AND NOW THERE
WILL BE A STORM. IT WILL BE GREAT FUN.
YOU'VE JUST BEEN TO JAIL, AND NOW THERE
WILL BE A STORM. IT WILL BE GREAT FUN.
Sister, are you here?
Yup!
Gogu.
Did you send it?
Yes, I did it.
I am so worried.
Come on, you're back home now,
and still behaving like Meetu Mathur.
It's good to be in character.
For the plan to succeed,
one must let go of himself.
- Yeah?
- Yeah, sure.
Okay, get me something to eat.
Please, I'm starving.
There's a buffet laid out here.
What do you want, ma'am?
"Raand, Saand, Seedhi, Sanyasi."
Good morning.
Where's my coffee?
What's going on, sister?
No, just look at us.
I'm a killer, and you've gone ahead
and slept with that fucking Tahir Wazir.
What was the need for it?
How much lower do we stoop?
To whatever level we have to.
As long as Tahir Wazir falls even lower.
You didn't kill Sanjay.
It was just an accident.
Yeah?
And you sleeping with Tahir?
Was that an accident too?
Wow.
No, that was not an accident.
Mayanka was his sole support system.
And she's gone now.
His marriage has fallen apart.
Do you understand?
- But, sister...
- But what? What?
"You shouldn't have slept with him!"
Enough! Stop it and grow up.
This is not how I raised you.
Everything is going to be fine,
just trust me, please!
I'm scared.
I'm fucking scared!
Fuck.
It's fine.
Sir, just two more kilometers to go.
Let's go.
Take me to Mussoorie Police Station.
Mussoorie?
Sir, I just found out.
What is he doing there?
Ranade.
We gave you one cyber cell case.
And one Lokesh Pramanik.
I wanted to keep him
busy before retirement.
Do you see what the case was,
and what it has become now?
Someone's getting attacked, someone's
getting threats, and someone's dead.
And there's zero evidence.
A simple case has gone out of hand.
It's a very well-planned crime, sir.
That's why we need more time.
But Lokesh is running out of time.
He's retiring after eight days.
Can you solve it before that?
Ranade!
The book has given us more information
than these police files.
What, sir?
I'm talking about
the book "Raand, Saand…"
The story began in Rajasi…
but ended here, in Mussoorie.
And this is where
we'll get all the answers.
There are two names in the book.
Mahesh Walia and his wife Sita Walia...
Sorry, not Sita. It's Seema Walia.
Sir, you left without informing,
and Mehrotra sir gave me an earful.
I'll handle the boss.
Do one thing.
Scan all the evidence again.
There's a missing piece of evidence
between history and the case history.
Sir.
So?
Sir, there's no file on Mahesh Walia.
What do you mean?
Sir, Mahesh Walia doesn't
exist in the system.
There's no criminal record either.
Why don't you check
the municipality records?
Is there no one named Mahesh?
One minute, sir.
There's one Mahesh.
But he's a small-time thief.
A key maker.
Can't be him.
Worth taking a chance.
I'm sure Wazir must've…
changed names in the book.
Heaven above, hell below.
Uncountable pieces of our past.
The past was muddy, filled with sins,
can't be washed even by the holy water.
A game of dice was there as well.
The same Shakuni…
and the same Draupadi.
Ravindra Jaisingh.
Send some potato wedges and sauce.
Yes, you're always thinking about food.
Turn off the TV!
- You're back.
- Yes.
Focus on your studies.
Watching the same cartoon
over and over again.
And what about you watching
the same daily soaps all day?
Sir!
Yes, sir.
But, sir, there's no way to find out.
Then it must be on the highway.
We'll check it out in the morning.
Yes, I'll make arrangements.
Jai Hind, sir!
Stop, stop, stop!
Every morning, the rising sun would bring
more and more happiness to this house.
The apple trees in the yard…
made Seema's smile brighter
with each passing day.
Are you looking for someone?
- He's dead?
- Yes.
A month after his wife passed,
Ravi died too.
Heart attack.
- The same?
- Yeah.
- They had a son.
- Gaurav.
He used to study here.
Later, he moved to a hostel.
He went to college.
And then, he left too.
He must be of marriageable age now.
They also…
had a daughter.
Yes. Adya.
She was just like Ravi.
Bubbly, smart, calm.
She left much before Gaurav did.
Where?
I don't know.
Are they in some kind of a problem?
No, no.
There's no problem.
But if you ever speak to either of them…
- then please inform me.
- Of course.
It will be a big help.
Thank you, Professor Trehan.
There's no need…
Have you read it?
Everyone in this city has.
How could they stay alive?
Small city, and the humiliation.
This book killed those two.
It's a very simple case of suicide.
She drowned to death.
A suicide note or anything else?
No, sir.
Just…
I don't know anything else about it.
It was a scandal.
And her body was found a day later.
Her son came to the
lake with his friends.
And you know what,
her son discovered her body.
The boy was barely a teenager then.
Cause…
and effect.
You guys, over there.
Hi.
Sister, guess what?
Shalu texted.
"Parth, where are you?
The police are in the office.
There's full-on drama going on."
Show me.
Okay, tell me.
TV show or a movie?
Movie.
Actually, I don't know why I'm
asking you. I was just watching Fleabag.
- Again?
- Yes, again.
Okay.
Name, Lokesh Pramanik.
Assistant Commissioner of Police,
CID Branch.
Work area, all over India.
Anything else?
No, sir. No, sir.
I, I…
I'll do it, sir.
I'll get the information, sir.
But, sir, the internet is down.
Engineering college's internet is down?
I mean there's a power cut, sir.
Both are non-functional?
Sir, but…
I'll get it done.
As soon as the power is restored,
I'll get it done.
Over here, ma'am.
Where is Parth?
He's on a leave.
Why? Do you need something?
It's because he brought
Tahir sir's laptop, right?
How do you know?
He's my boyfriend.
He tells me everything.
Oh, is it? He's your boyfriend?
Very good. Call him.
Who is the admin here?
I am, madam.
Then you must have the receipts
for these new laptops. Show me.
No, ma'am.
There are no receipts.
He said he bought it from the grey market.
So, there are no receipts.
Does he get all the computers
around here?
No, only for Mayanka ma'am.
Actually, he's a film executive here.
But he's pretty good with computers.
I went to Gaurav Jaisingh's college today.
There he used to study software.
The internet was down,
and there was no electricity either.
And yes, I remember.
I went to the market today.
Do you know what I found?
Some new lead?
Cute, sweet, colorful candies.
And candy cigarettes for children.
Colorful, sweet, cute candies?
I'll get some for you.
Colorful, sweet candies.
What happened, ma'am?
What happened, ma'am?
- Is this where Parth sits?
- Yes.
What is this?
Sir, I just sent you a picture.
The one where half of your face
is seen and you're sitting?
There's a board behind me, sir.
And there's a poster
of sweet candies on it.
Yes.
Sir, do you remember when we almost saw
"WazirlsGod" or "Dead", whatever it was?
Remember when he quickly
turned off his screen?
Check the last frame carefully, sir.
The live feed was from here,
from the same position and angle.
Sir, it was from Mayanka Wazir's office.
Do you mean from Gaurav Jaisingh's desk?
Sir, Gaurav Jaisingh?
I've sent you something.
- Check and tell me.
- One second, sir.
Sir!
The youngest character of Raand, Saand…
He's a software engineer.
Name…
Parth Acharya.
Works at Mayanka's office.
And the one who formatted
Tahir Wazir's laptop.
-Thanks
-What for?
For formatting Tahir's computer.
You're welcome.
But, sir…
the guy who attacked
Meetu Mathur had a limp, right?
He's a good actor.
He was putting on an act
to distract us.
Check the footage when he was limping.
Limping horse.
- While entering the room, right...
- Right leg.
While coming out,
he limped with the left leg.
Left.
He was stressed…
after attacking the girl.
There was a problem with the continuity.
Arrest that rascal!
Mahesh Walia, Seema Walia.
When you read with the original names,
reading becomes more interesting.
Ravindra Jaisingh, Sudha Jaisingh,
Adya Jaisingh, Gaurav Jaisingh.
Where was I?
Oh, yes.
Chapter six.
to believe that we are indestructible.
We are immortal, we are invincible.
Maybe to some extent, it's true.
Because we die, but our stories
live forever.
Somewhere amongst the ashes
and the remains,
exist traces of our story.
Story that Tahir narrated,
and the one
now we are narrating to him.
Tahir, why are you under arrest?
- Mr. Tahir, tell us.
- Please, move back.
- Please, everyone, go back.
- Tahir.
- Please, say something.
- Please, madam.
- Everyone wants to know, Tahir.
- Please, go back.
Tahir Wazir and his wife
have been arrested.
And we have no clue
how soon they will be released.
But we will wait here and see…
Yes?
I am here for Tahir Wazir.
The press is not allowed here, madam.
I am not the press.
Family? Lawyer?
- I am his editor, I really need to...
- Still not allowed, madam.
You can go, madam.
Ma'am?
- Sukanya ma'am?
- Yes.
Will Tahir sir be alright?
Sorry, you are?
I am his assistant.
He was with me last night.
- And since then...
- What?
No…
- I mean...
- Tahir was with you?
So, tell me, why was he arrested?
It's not his fault, ma'am.
- He was with me when all this happened.
- What happened?
The police believe that
Mayanka ma'am and Tahir sir…
are involved in Sanjay sir's case.
What is going on?
Ma'am…
Sanjay sir is dead.
- So…
- What?
Sanjay is dead?
What the fuck!
Look, we haven't done anything.
I wasn't even in Neemrana when…
Sanju died.
But your wife was.
Are you mental?
- Is he fucking mental?
- Hey, hey!
I'm repeating myself.
There's a lady here.
Behave yourself.
Any witnesses?
For what?
Is there a witness who can confirm that
you were in Mumbai the night before?
Where is Mayanka?
Are you questioning her separately

Sir, there's no need to be so dramatic.
She's using the bathroom.
Fuck, Sanjay!
Oh, God! Sanjay!
- May I?
- Thank you.
Oh, thank you!
You didn't have to.
Okay, so, one second.
Why was Tahir arrested?
I mean, he wasn't even
in Neemrana, as you said.
Yes, ma'am. He was at home.

- Yes.
You guys are ridiculous!
Okay.
Well, if you insist,
but you know your job perfectly well.
What job?
Making faking accounts.
And deleting Neemrana's
CCTV footage from Mumbai.
- What the hell are you guys...
- Enough!
Enough, Tahir!
Just tell him.
The more we try to hide it,
the more complicated this will get.
Just tell them that
we're the victims here.
Tell him!
How can you let
a guy like Lokesh run CID?

Okay.
I am "WazirlsGod".
Who praises you all the time.
Who speaks highly of you.
Who also gets into a fight with others.
I used to do that!
But the account was hacked.
He is the same guy who hacked
the account and deleted the footage.
Thank you very much…
for admitting at least this much.
Well…
now it's obvious that you are
"WazirlsDead" as well.
Come on! I am not "WazirlsDead".

Tahir sir's editor.

He works with Mayanka ma'am.
Hi, I'm Parth.

Sir, we need an answer!

- Tahir, we need to talk.
Sir, sir.
We'll talk later.
I don't have time for this right now.
- No, but seriously...
- Not right now! I'll speak to you later.
Sir, are you alright?
I'm okay.
Let's go home.

Sir, you can't go like this.
Sir, can I…
Let's go.
- Sir, answer us.
- Ma'am, just one question.
- Ma'am!
- Sir.
Fuck!
No, no, no.
Mister, can you take me back
to the coffee shop, please?
Excuse me, can you please get up?
Excuse me. I left my debit card.
My debit card was here.
I think I misplaced my debit card.
Can you just check?
- Can your leg just...
- Ma'am.
- Yeah?
- Is anything wrong?
Yes, I was here half an hour ago,
and I think I left my debit card here.
On this…
- Excuse me.
- Yes, ma'am?
I gave you my debit card.
I think I left it here.
- What is the name on the card?
- Adya. Adya Jaisingh.
But I gave it back.
What? To whom?
To the lady who accompanied you.
She told me she will give it to you.
Really? How could you do that?
You just gave my debit card to anyone!
What's wrong with you guys?
- Sorry, ma'am.
- Sorry, ma'am.
Don't play the innocent with me.
I know you. And more

Sukanya ma'am, the cafe's manager
said they gave you my card.
I gave it to Tahir.
Oh, thank you, ma'am.
Meetu?
- Meetu Mathur, right?
- Yes, ma'am.
Do you use two names?
Your card says…
- An...
- Adya.
That's right.
Why does it say Adya Jaisingh?
Ma'am, that was my mom's
name and after her death...
Not interested.
I told you.
I told you to be very careful

by telling you the truth.
But not anymore.
In fact, never again.
Tahir, I'm done.
Tahir sir.
Sorry, sir…
I heard everything.
I'll leave.
I'll take my stuff.
I'm sorry.
Sir, Sukanya ma'am…
Well…
Sir, my card?
Sukanya ma'am
gave you my card, right?
Oh, yes.
Yeah.
Here.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
Listen…
GOGU
TWEEK, RIGHT NOW.
YOU'VE JUST BEEN TO JAIL, AND NOW THERE
WILL BE A STORM. IT WILL BE GREAT FUN.
YOU'VE JUST BEEN TO JAIL, AND NOW THERE
WILL BE A STORM. IT WILL BE GREAT FUN.
Sister, are you here?
Yup!
Gogu.
Did you send it?
Yes, I did it.
I am so worried.
Come on, you're back home now,
and still behaving like Meetu Mathur.
It's good to be in character.
For the plan to succeed,
one must let go of himself.
- Yeah?
- Yeah, sure.
Okay, get me something to eat.
Please, I'm starving.
There's a buffet laid out here.
What do you want, ma'am?
"Raand, Saand, Seedhi, Sanyasi."
Good morning.
Where's my coffee?
What's going on, sister?
No, just look at us.
I'm a killer, and you've gone ahead
and slept with that fucking Tahir Wazir.
What was the need for it?
How much lower do we stoop?
To whatever level we have to.
As long as Tahir Wazir falls even lower.
You didn't kill Sanjay.
It was just an accident.
Yeah?
And you sleeping with Tahir?
Was that an accident too?
Wow.
No, that was not an accident.
Mayanka was his sole support system.
And she's gone now.
His marriage has fallen apart.
Do you understand?
- But, sister...
- But what? What?
"You shouldn't have slept with him!"
Enough! Stop it and grow up.
This is not how I raised you.
Everything is going to be fine,
just trust me, please!
I'm scared.
I'm fucking scared!
Fuck.
It's fine.
Sir, just two more kilometers to go.
Let's go.
Take me to Mussoorie Police Station.
Mussoorie?
Sir, I just found out.
What is he doing there?
Ranade.
We gave you one cyber cell case.
And one Lokesh Pramanik.
I wanted to keep him
busy before retirement.
Do you see what the case was,
and what it has become now?
Someone's getting attacked, someone's
getting threats, and someone's dead.
And there's zero evidence.
A simple case has gone out of hand.
It's a very well-planned crime, sir.
That's why we need more time.
But Lokesh is running out of time.
He's retiring after eight days.
Can you solve it before that?
Ranade!
The book has given us more information
than these police files.
What, sir?
I'm talking about
the book "Raand, Saand…"
The story began in Rajasi…
but ended here, in Mussoorie.
And this is where
we'll get all the answers.
There are two names in the book.
Mahesh Walia and his wife Sita Walia...
Sorry, not Sita. It's Seema Walia.
Sir, you left without informing,
and Mehrotra sir gave me an earful.
I'll handle the boss.
Do one thing.
Scan all the evidence again.
There's a missing piece of evidence
between history and the case history.
Sir.
So?
Sir, there's no file on Mahesh Walia.
What do you mean?
Sir, Mahesh Walia doesn't
exist in the system.
There's no criminal record either.
Why don't you check
the municipality records?
Is there no one named Mahesh?
One minute, sir.
There's one Mahesh.
But he's a small-time thief.
A key maker.
Can't be him.
Worth taking a chance.
I'm sure Wazir must've…
changed names in the book.
Heaven above, hell below.
Uncountable pieces of our past.
The past was muddy, filled with sins,
can't be washed even by the holy water.
A game of dice was there as well.
The same Shakuni…
and the same Draupadi.
Ravindra Jaisingh.
Send some potato wedges and sauce.
Yes, you're always thinking about food.
Turn off the TV!
- You're back.
- Yes.
Focus on your studies.
Watching the same cartoon
over and over again.
And what about you watching
the same daily soaps all day?
Sir!
Yes, sir.
But, sir, there's no way to find out.
Then it must be on the highway.
We'll check it out in the morning.
Yes, I'll make arrangements.
Jai Hind, sir!
Stop, stop, stop!
Every morning, the rising sun would bring
more and more happiness to this house.
The apple trees in the yard…
made Seema's smile brighter
with each passing day.
Are you looking for someone?
- He's dead?
- Yes.
A month after his wife passed,
Ravi died too.
Heart attack.
- The same?
- Yeah.
- They had a son.
- Gaurav.
He used to study here.
Later, he moved to a hostel.
He went to college.
And then, he left too.
He must be of marriageable age now.
They also…
had a daughter.
Yes. Adya.
She was just like Ravi.
Bubbly, smart, calm.
She left much before Gaurav did.
Where?
I don't know.
Are they in some kind of a problem?
No, no.
There's no problem.
But if you ever speak to either of them…
- then please inform me.
- Of course.
It will be a big help.
Thank you, Professor Trehan.
There's no need…
Have you read it?
Everyone in this city has.
How could they stay alive?
Small city, and the humiliation.
This book killed those two.
It's a very simple case of suicide.
She drowned to death.
A suicide note or anything else?
No, sir.
Just…
I don't know anything else about it.
It was a scandal.
And her body was found a day later.
Her son came to the
lake with his friends.
And you know what,
her son discovered her body.
The boy was barely a teenager then.
Cause…
and effect.
You guys, over there.
Hi.
Sister, guess what?
Shalu texted.
"Parth, where are you?
The police are in the office.
There's full-on drama going on."
Show me.
Okay, tell me.
TV show or a movie?
Movie.
Actually, I don't know why I'm
asking you. I was just watching Fleabag.
- Again?
- Yes, again.
Okay.
Name, Lokesh Pramanik.
Assistant Commissioner of Police,
CID Branch.
Work area, all over India.
Anything else?
No, sir. No, sir.
I, I…
I'll do it, sir.
I'll get the information, sir.
But, sir, the internet is down.
Engineering college's internet is down?
I mean there's a power cut, sir.
Both are non-functional?
Sir, but…
I'll get it done.
As soon as the power is restored,
I'll get it done.
Over here, ma'am.
Where is Parth?
He's on a leave.
Why? Do you need something?
It's because he brought
Tahir sir's laptop, right?
How do you know?
He's my boyfriend.
He tells me everything.
Oh, is it? He's your boyfriend?
Very good. Call him.
Who is the admin here?
I am, madam.
Then you must have the receipts
for these new laptops. Show me.
No, ma'am.
There are no receipts.
He said he bought it from the grey market.
So, there are no receipts.
Does he get all the computers
around here?
No, only for Mayanka ma'am.
Actually, he's a film executive here.
But he's pretty good with computers.
I went to Gaurav Jaisingh's college today.
There he used to study software.
The internet was down,
and there was no electricity either.
And yes, I remember.
I went to the market today.
Do you know what I found?
Some new lead?
Cute, sweet, colorful candies.
And candy cigarettes for children.
Colorful, sweet, cute candies?
I'll get some for you.
Colorful, sweet candies.
What happened, ma'am?
What happened, ma'am?
- Is this where Parth sits?
- Yes.
What is this?
Sir, I just sent you a picture.
The one where half of your face
is seen and you're sitting?
There's a board behind me, sir.
And there's a poster
of sweet candies on it.
Yes.
Sir, do you remember when we almost saw
"WazirlsGod" or "Dead", whatever it was?
Remember when he quickly
turned off his screen?
Check the last frame carefully, sir.
The live feed was from here,
from the same position and angle.
Sir, it was from Mayanka Wazir's office.
Do you mean from Gaurav Jaisingh's desk?
Sir, Gaurav Jaisingh?
I've sent you something.
- Check and tell me.
- One second, sir.
Sir!
The youngest character of Raand, Saand…
He's a software engineer.
Name…
Parth Acharya.
Works at Mayanka's office.
And the one who formatted
Tahir Wazir's laptop.
-Thanks
-What for?
For formatting Tahir's computer.
You're welcome.
But, sir…
the guy who attacked
Meetu Mathur had a limp, right?
He's a good actor.
He was putting on an act
to distract us.
Check the footage when he was limping.
Limping horse.
- While entering the room, right...
- Right leg.
While coming out,
he limped with the left leg.
Left.
He was stressed…
after attacking the girl.
There was a problem with the continuity.
Arrest that rascal!
Mahesh Walia, Seema Walia.
When you read with the original names,
reading becomes more interesting.
Ravindra Jaisingh, Sudha Jaisingh,
Adya Jaisingh, Gaurav Jaisingh.
Where was I?
Oh, yes.
Chapter six.
