City of Dreams (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 6 - The Prophecy - full transcript

Poorni, please.

Let's do this the right way.

You don't know Baba.

I've been meeting him
for six months.

He likes me a lot. He'll even give me
the party ticket.

There's a big difference
between liking you and accepting you.

This will be easier.

You trust me, right?

Stupid question.

This is the only way.

Okay.



Smile, please!

I don't believe in traditions...

but this is unbelievable.

Poorni, you're my wife.

We must take Mother's blessings.

And your father's.

Mahesh, I should go alone
to meet Baba.

Poorni, what are you saying?

First, you didn't let me
ask for your hand,

then this secret wedding,
and now you're saying...

Poorni, I'm not afraid
of your Baba.

But I'm afraid.

No way, Poorni.

Poornima is saying the right thing.



Sir?

She should go alone.

This is our best chance.

This is wrong.

Then give her a chance
to make it right.

Thank you, Mahesh.

I'll wait here.

I'll be back soon.

Mahesh was against it.
This was my idea, Baba.

He doesn't know
your real opinion about him.

Baba, I know you're angry,
but I couldn't see another way.

I know how much you value
the seven rounds around the sacred fire.

That's why I did all this.

Baba, I'm still
your lovable Lakshmi.

How much do you love him?

A lot!

Then, rather than him
dying for real, isn't it better, dear...

that you move on with the belief
that he is dead from today onwards?

Saheb?

And, Lakshmi,
Not even one phone call, okay?

You know I'll find out.

Right?

Good girl.

I had left Mahesh
at this exact spot.

I know.

After you left,
I stayed with him for a while.

I never thought it'll hurt so much
even after all these years.

After all, it was true love
between you two.

But I just don't understand
why he leaked the photo now.

Money or power.

These two masters can break anyone.

No, kaka.

I know Mahesh.

He has no interest in both.

And he would never hit
below the belt.

When did you meet him last?

14 years ago?

After wandering in the darkness
for so long,

people set out
to sell even their mothers.

And you're talking about
a small photo?

People are like seasons.

Always changing.

I don't accept that.

There must be a big reason.

Vibha.

I hope you believe now?

My God, Ameya.
What have you done?

The same. What I told you.

Yes, but in this way?

You know

that I don't like those
who don't listen to me.

Okay.

What now?

We shall contest the elections...

win them.

May I ask how you are so sure?

Don't ask.

Just that...

we will win.

And once you've reached there,
will you stop, Ameya?

What do you mean?

When will you stop chasing
your daughter?

I couldn't understand you, Ameya.

In order to remove the enmity from
your face, you humiliated yourself.

In the world of fake news,

is this photo also fake?

To discuss this, we have with us
renowned psychiatrist

Dr. Sharmila Shetty

and well-known astrologer
Deepak Daruwala.

Sir, what do you think?

Is it a problem with the planets,
or is this photo fake?

Yes, madam, what do you think?

Is it a psychiatric problem,
or is the photo fake?

Nobody has any answer.

But will Poornima Gaikwad
ever be able to recover

from such a personal shock?

Will she recover?

Will she recover?

THIS YOUNG MAN REMINDS ME
OF MYSELF: AMEYA RAO GAIKWAD

-Sir, sir...
-One minute!

One minute! Step back!

Move back!

Go out! Go out! Out, out!

Silence, silence!

Please, calm down. Calm down!

Calm down.

It is true that Poornima
and I got married.

We were together in college.
We fell in love.

Then thought we should
get married as well.

Actually, it was Poornima's idea
to get married.

CHIEF MINISTER'S RESIDENCE

Please move. Move. Come this way.

Please.

The day after our wedding,
Poornima fled.

From that day till today,

I have never met Poornima since,
nor have I spoken to her.

Sir, what could be the reason
for that?

Ask Poornima that question.
Only she can give the answer.

For the past 14 years,

even I've been trying to find
the answer to this question.

Now I can't say more on this topic.

Sir, what do you think?
Who leaked that photo?

Sir, why did you hide the news of
your marriage for all these years?

And, sir, how did this photo leak
right before the election?

Sir, do you still
meet Poornima ji secretly?

What's your take
on this photo leak?

Sir, did you meet her?

Did you meet her after
the photo got leaked?

-Sir, tell us if you did.
-One minute.

I can't say anything more
on this topic.

-Thank you.
-Sir...

Go out! Go out! Out!

Mom?

Mom.

Yeah, come in.

-Tell me, dear.
-Just one question.

Ask.

Is he my father?

Amit. Amit, I'm so...

So far so good.

-Yes, excellent. Great.
-Best kind of day.

Great. Not even a single glitch
the whole day.

But we don't know.

I'll just be back.

I'm glad you came.

So, this is your world?

Just a small part.

Come, let me introduce you
to my core team.

Come.

Arvind, meet Rahul.

Hey, man! What's up?

Arvind Mehta.

I know.

And you already know Aliya.

Of course.

How are you, brother-in-law?

Good.

Aliya is my partner in crime.

In stopping crime.

Aliya, why don't you explain to Arvind
what exactly we do here?

Sure.

Tanya and I have developed an app,
Fearless.

It's an intermediary
between the cops

and those people who want
to report an ongoing crime.

Mumbai Police cannot keep a check
on every crime that happens.

That's why we thought
to involve the citizens.

Any citizen who sees
or suspects an ongoing crime

can call us through our app.

Through the years we've developed
a citizen social network

through which we can remove
all prank calls

and transfer the genuine calls
to the cops

so that we can stop the crime
in time.

Wow!

So, what's the catch?

-What do you mean?
-Revenue model.

I mean, how do you make
money from the app?

Breaking news, fiancé.
We don't make money here.

That can't be.

Wait. So this is what
Ramnik bhai's daughter does?

I guess, in my case,
it's not like father like daughter.

That's very impressive.

But, honestly, you know.

Are you sure
you can't make money from this?

You know, I have a guy who can help you
monetise on some of this data.

Money can be made, but...

I don't want to.

That's confusing.

Tanya, the money is literally
screaming out to you.

Take me!

Take me, Tanya.

I don't hear any such screams.

I want to show this app
to CM Poornima Gaikwad.

With her help, we can implement this
in the entire state.

I'm going to ask Dad
to introduce me to her.

To Poornima?

Guys, this is an NCIS.

-NCIS?
-No cops in sight.

I'm speaking from Deonar Bus Depot.

Some people forcefully
put a girl in a van and took her away.

Okay. This call has been reported
from three different sources,

and the nearest police station
is 8 km away.

Let's go.

Are you sure? Bhavs and Tony
are on another call.

I'm sure. Let's go.

-Come on.
-Let's go then.

Let's go where?

Walkie-talkies.

Taser.

What the fuck is going on?

We'll stop the crime.

No. Call the... call the cops.

It'll be very late by then.

Tanya, you can't be serious.
This is actually crazy.

Everything was clear
after Nirbhaya.

The time of watching
like a gutless asshole is gone, India.

Listen, this is your last chance.

You can stay here if you want.

After this, whatever happens
won't be in my control.

No, I'll come with you.

Cool. Come.

Tanya, what I'm saying is
we should call the police anyway, right?

Aren't I saying
the right thing, Rahul?

I'll be back in an hour.
Maximum one and a half hours.

-Can you stay?
-No problem.

Thank you.

Where are you going so late at night?

I have a meeting, dear.

With a gun?

I'll be back in an hour, okay?

Don't trouble Parvati aunty. Okay?

Is politics boring?

Yes.

It's suffocating.

You got into the wrong business.

Hurry.

-It was you who called?
-Yes.

I saw them dragging a small girl
into that house.

-How many people were they, sir?
-Two. Maybe three.

Thank you, sir.

Shanti Routine.

Let me guard the backdoor
with Aliya.

Let's go, let's go, let's go.

How do I look?

Perfect Shanti.

Let's go. Come on.

Tanya.

Tanya?

Come.

What are we doing?

Listen, whoever comes out
other than the three of us

hit him hard with this, okay?

-However hard you can.
-I'm not going to hit someone.

-Are you out of your mind?
-Hit as hard as you can.

-Okay, now go stand there.
-I'm not...

Go, stand there. Go, go.

Hello, sir. My name is Shanti.

I've come from Mother Goddess's temple
to collect donations.

-Not now.
-Sir, if not now, then never.

This is the time to celebrate
the festival of Mother Goddess!

Hail Mother Goddess!

Hey! Lower your voice.

If you don't get lost,
I'll sacrifice you to the Goddess.

Now, get lost.

Sir, you can insult me,
but don't insult the Goddess.

-Sir, please, sir.
-What's going on here?

Hail Mother Goddess, sir.
Look, he's insulting the Goddess.

Bhau, why are you insulting the Goddess?

Are you an atheist?

-I'm not, pal. But this woman...
-Is she lying?

She's come to bother me
so late at night. See!

She's shouting in the middle
of the night! What's going on?

She's disturbing me
after coming here at this hour.

She's knocking at the door
at this time. Doesn't she understand?

Rahul, hail Mother Goddess!

-Are you all right?
-I'm fine.

Tanya?

You people take her to the hospital
I'll just come.

-Are you all right?
-Yeah, let me get Arvind.

Arvind!

Arvind?

Arvind?

Oh, God! Oh, God!

Please.

We've recorded everything
in this camera.

Let him go
or I'll give this to the police.

Give me the camera.

-First, let him go.
-Give me the camera, whore!

Let it be then.

Do whatever you want with him.

-Keep him with you.
-What? Tanya?

Hey, stop!

I'm letting him go.

Give me the camera.

Easy.

Oh, no! No!

Run!

Hey, fucker, catch her!
She recorded me!

No! No!

Tanya,
are you out of your fucking mind?

He could've killed us.

He would've fucking killed us.

If this is your world,

then keep it with you.

Shit!

Hey, stop.

Asshole, I'm Inspec...

Tell Babar Wasim Khan is here. Go.

One who comes to my dreams

And then teases me

Tell him to show himself!

Bhai. Go in.

He wanted to meet you.

One more?

No, baby. I shall talk
to Wasim bhai now.

Okay.

Will she be sitting here?

Yes, bhai.

What is this place?

Latest trend, bhai

I had gone to Korea. Saw it there.

Thought it would become popular
in Mumbai also.

Another way to get laid.

What are you saying? It's called
the girlfriend experience.

Rich clients and pretty girls.

They sing all night long
like Lata and Rafi.

And sex after that?

No, bhai.
They only talk after that.

Then they fuck, don't they?

Oh, no, bhai.

Only drinking, singing and talking.

-And they pay money for it?
-Yes, a lot.

Who?

Right now it's the Koreans
and the Chinese

who visit Mumbai for work.

But, bhai,
the trend is catching up.

Even our people are getting
into this business.

Baby, sing a Chinese song for bhai.

She sings really well.

I need to discuss one thing
with Babar.

Sing after that. Okay?

Okay.

Whatever you're going to do...
don't do it.

Bhai,
I'm a legitimate businessman now.

I'm explaining it again.

Whatever you're going to do,
stop it.

Don't do it.

I heard your boys talking
at the Prabhakar Bar.

That's it? And you opened my file?

Had it been the Wasim Khan
from 15 years ago,

he would've listened from one ear
and let it out from the other ear.

Don't teach your father
how to fuck, fucker.

The information I used to get
15 years ago at Prabhakar Bar

also used to be solid.

Why are you grinning?

There's still a cop hiding
behind the politician.

You're missing those days,
aren't you?

That's why you've come here.

Is that a real gun?

Can I touch it?

You can't touch it.

The old Wasim Khan used to manage
with this, but I have a bigger gun now.

The CM.

Whatever legal businesses you have,
I'll have them shut legally.

Remember that.

Bhai...

I'm telling you nicely.

Whatever you're going to do,
don't do it.

Sing.

Sing now.

Okay.

Shall I sing a Chinese song?

Date...

17th May, 2015.
Day, Thursday.

Time, 11 a.m.

The reason for calling
this emergency meeting today

is that, this morning,
Honourable Vibha ji's orders came

that our most experienced leader,
our guide

the Honourable Milind Prabhu ji

is to be removed immediately
from the post of the leader.

As per the tradition of the party,

I request all of you

to raise your hand if you agree.

You always put your hand
in the wrong places.

Why do you do that?

FRIEND

Who is this Friend?

-Huh?
-Friend.

Yes... Deven.

Deven? Since when did he
become your friend?

Didn't you call him a moron?

-Yes. Hurry now, hurry now.
-Yes.

-Done?
-Yes, done.

Hello?

Wow.

You look so good in a salwar-kameez.
I didn't recognise you.

Okay, no. Please.

Not today.

You called, so I thought...

Some people had sent me after you.

What are you saying?

The people I work for...

they wanted to know how Gaikwad steals
their money and where he keeps it.

You're kidding.

We...

met at the cinema hall
for the first time, right?

Yes.

That was planned.

What?

I always wondered
how my luck could be so good.

Why are you telling me
all this now?

Because I won't meet you again.

Those people will kill me.

Why? Who?

The people I work for.

They know you handle the money.

They want proof
and their money as well.

How can I believe
you aren't lying now?

I... I can't prove it.

You... could've run away.

I have a request.

Will you look after my daughter?

How dare you ask me this?

You are putting me
and my family in danger, and you...

how can you even ask me this?

I know I'm wrong.

But I'm very desperate.

I only have time till tomorrow.

Please.

Please.

Play with someone else's life.

Date, 17th May 2015.

Day, Thursday. Time, 11 a.m.

Come to the point, Deshpande.

In RUP's history,
it's for the first time that

we have gathered here
for the second time...

Sit down, Deshpande.

We haven't come here
for formalities.

Send him in.

Meet your new leader.

Please.

Please sit.

Sir, what is your opinion?

What do you have to say about this?

I've always believed

the party needs new blood.

I'm very happy...

that an able politician
like Mahesh Aravle

has been chosen by the party.

Please move back.

Milind ji, hello!

How are you?

I came over
as soon as I heard about your health.

Hey, even these people are here.

Now a huge battle shall take place
between husband and wife.

Mahesh Aravle has become
RUP's new CM candidate,

and he shall compete

with his ex-wife, Poornima Gaikwad.

Who will win? Who will lose?

You know what I'm going to say.

Who?

Who?

Who?

Hello.

Hello, Gurav ji.

You'll have to talk to the press
at some point, dear.

I know you're angry.

This isn't anger, kaka,
but disappointment.

I hadn't thought
Mahesh would stoop so low.

And the right person helped him
in doing so.

-Who?
-Saheb.

Baba?

We were waiting
for this day, right?

Saheb has fired his first shot.

Milind Prabhu told me everything.

He'd gone to meet Vibha.

He convinced her
to make Mahesh a candidate for CM.

I can understand Vibha,
but how did he convince Mahesh?

That Mahesh sold his ideals
along with the photo.

Now the biggest question
that comes up is...

was this Saheb's only plan...

or is there something else
cooking in his mind?

Now there's only one way left.

You came.

You didn't leave any other choice.

How did you convince Mahesh,
Baba?

You've yet to learn a lot
about your father.

You shouldn't have made
an enemy out of me, Lakshmi.

Baba, can we patch up?

That time has passed, dear.

So, now there will be
straight-out war?

No.

There will be no war.

You'll just stand
and watch how I break you.

I'm not your enemy, Baba.

I did all this only because
I wanted to prove I'm more capable.

And, to prove that, who gave you
the right to kill my son?

Only you are responsible for that.

Even Ashu didn't leave me
with any other choice.

Till the last moment, I begged him
to move away from my path.

Baba, he was my brother as well.
It wasn't easy for me to do this.

Even I loved him
as much as you did.

You get out, Poornima.

Get out, leave. Leave.

Leave!

One question has been bothering me
for years, Baba.

If we're meeting for
the last time today,

then give me the answer
to that question.

I want to know why.

Why did you always discriminate
between Ashu and me?

I'm aware of your philosophy
that men and women are different.

That's why
you always put Ashu forward.

But the reason for the discrimination
I'm talking about goes deeper.

I'm not talking about
our current enmity, Baba.

I've always experienced
this discrimination.

Right from childhood.

So, I will ask you again.

Why?

Bahir ji!

Outside.

There can be only one reason.

Fear.

You're afraid of me, Baba.

Do you believe in astrology?

You know my answer.

No.

Even I didn't believe in it.

But then you were born.

Your mother
got your horoscope made.

The astrologer counted out
all your good traits.

Said that you'll become very big.

You'll raise the reputation
of the Gaikwads.

But the moment your mother
went into another room,

he said
that you are Prahlad's form.

Prahlad?

Whose father's name
was Hiranyakashipu?

What he meant to say
was you'll destroy me.

I burst out laughing.

I said, "Will my angel,
my Lakshmi, destroy me?

"Just can't be."

But, as you grew up,

you turned out
completely different from me.

Whatever I said,
whatever I taught you, you would...

Think the opposite,
do the opposite.

I tried so hard,
but you never accepted my views.

I used to consider
only one religion supreme,

but you considered
all religions equal.

I believe men and women are born
on this earth for different purposes,

but you abhor this idea.

I like the rain,
but you like the sun.

Damn!

I love to eat mutton, but you have
never touched meat your entire life.

It felt as if you were born
only to oppose me.

That's why you tried to suppress me
at every stage.

School, college,
marriage, politics.

You are everything...

that I'm absolutely not.

That I am, Baba.

Only one of us can remain.

Either destroy...

or be destroyed.

I wish
you'd told me all this earlier.

I might've understood and
wouldn't have killed Ashu.

I thought that by killing him
I'd be able to gain your support.

Shall I give you some advice, Baba?

Back off.

Let the new Gaikwad run the empire.

Until the real Gaikwad
isn't finished...

it won't happen.

Fine.

Give me your blessings.

I shall destroy that Gaikwad.
