Duranga (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - Mask Off, Almost - full transcript

Ira is about to uncover Abhishek Banne's identity because of an old photograph. But before she can get her hands on the picture, a hooded mystery man beats her to it.

You? What are you doing here?

Are you trying to be over smart?

Does it matter, what my needs are?

Why are you helping me?

Tell me.

There's a cafe nearby.

Come there at 4:00 p.m. tomorrow.

I have to talk to you
about something important.

What do you want to talk about?

Don't ditch me,

or you'll be thrashed badly.



I mean it.

What?

Actually...

Sit here, next to me.

Do you want to say something?

What happened?

There is no one...

Where did he go?

Who knows, mom.

Listen to me,

your dad will engage
the best immigration lawyer.

They'll make new identities for you

and you will shift to Canada.

New identities, new life.



Safe for everyone.

Do you think Ira will quit her police
job and agree to join me?

She has to go

because she has created all of this mess.

Listen to me,

talk to dad, please.

If the need arises, you go alone.

You just want to keep your
secret safe,

which will never get exposed.

I guarantee you.

Whether you agree or not,

but we have a relationship as well.

Dr. Patel is your father

and I am your mother.

I am your mother.

Don't ever forget that.

Victor,

Yes sir.

It’s Nikhil from
the Crime Branch.

Yes, yes sir.

Did you leave your flask here?

Make sure you come and
pick it up today.

Ira, all the documents
of Bala Banne.

From his birth to death certificate,
ration card, everything.

I asked for them on a SOS basis.

Thank you, sir.

The ration card has a mention of

Abhishek’s elder sister, Prachi Banne.

Interesting.

Yes.

Sir,

the media reports that we got earlier
of the Sarangwadi serial killing case,

don’t mention any Prachi Banne in them.

Maybe everyone focused
only on her brother.

Right.

Also Ira, this Prachi Banne

has been living in Mumbai
for the past 17 years.

You need to look into that.

The quantity was the same in the
last shot too.

How do you remember all this?

Prachi,

don't you think the blood is a little less?

Have you ever seen a
real stabbed dead body?

No, sir.

I have never seen any dead body.

This is not real life.

This is a shooting.

Film shoot.

Get some feel to this.

I will add more blood, Sir.

Prachi.

Police.

I am sure, you might know
why I have come here.

I'm tired of telling everyone,

after 2005, I don't know
where Abhishek is.

Even you are missing from
Sarangwadi since 2005.

Yes because, I wanted to sever
all the ties with Sarangwadi.

Didn't you try looking for
your brother?

No.

Even he reminds me of Sarangwadi.

But you didn't sell that property.

Ma'am, you don't do your homework
before coming here.

My dad owned three more plots.

I sold all the three and gave the
money to the families of those women.

But you didn't sell the house.

You didn't even sell
Bala Banne's workshop.

For whom? For Abhishek?

Is he still hiding there?

I don't know where and how
the poor guy will be.

He was 17 years old

when he stabbed

the village chief 17 times
with scissors.

You call him a 'Poor guy'?

You haven't met my brother, right?

Yet you’re put allegations on him directly.

Maybe the truth is different.

Which you know,

but you are hiding it.

No, ma'am.

That you have to find,

but you are knocking
on the wrong door.

I am sorry,

I have to go to the set. So...

Can I leave?

FIR of Sarangwadi
serial killing case.

FIR of Sarangwadi
village chief's murder case.

Bala Banne, Abhishek Banne.

Vikas, you were supposed to give me
an exclusive scoop on this case.

Yes.

There's nothing for now,
but soon I'll get it.

Soon.

Don't disappoint me, Vikas.
You are on to something big.

An international media giant

from the top five is taking
interest in us.

They want to invest.

Hmm.

Just 'Hmm'?

Okay, whatever,
but I want the scoop.

This is our big ticket.

Yes.

Baby,

try this on please.

Last to last night,
when you were at the door

wearing this raincoat,

for two seconds,
I didn't recognise you.

And i have been seeing you
everyday since the last 13 years.

What is the matter?

Just that the victim Dheeraj Kumar,

who had not met Abhishek
from the past 14 years,

how did he recognise him?

And do you know,

Abhishek too had worn
a similar kind of raincoat.

In fact, exactly the same.

Maybe he was not Abhishek.

It is possible, he might have been
someone else, but,

Dheeraj misunderstood.

It was him.

He had threatened him as well.

I think Dheeraj

would've recognised Abhishek

not by looking at his face,
but some other way.

Right.

Thank you for being my model.

Back to work.

Why is this case so difficult?

Sammit, it’s difficult because

we don't have any lead on Abhishek.

Not even a picture.

So,

what will you do?

We’ve finally found a witness now.

We will make his sketch.

The witness would've known Abhishek
from a long time, right?

Yes.

He is a former employer,

Ramakant Shetty.

It will be of help
if Vikas journalist

is present there

while making the sketch, right?

They both were classmates.

When did I tell you
they both were classmates?

You told it to me
last to last night.

So, I thought,
if Vikas is present there,

it will be of help.

Actually, that's a good idea.

Thank you.

'It has come to light that'

'Bala Banne's son, Abhishek Banne'

'is involved in Dheeraj Kumar's
murder in Mumbai.'

'The police doesn't have any
information about Abhishek Banne'

'and according to our sources, '

'police doesn't
even have his picture.'

No, he didn't have such big eyes.

They were a little closer.

And the forehead?

It was not so wide.

Actually, his eyes were like this.

You are right, it’s quite close actually.

If you say..

What are you saying?
Look at the forehead.

His forehead was wide.

This is what Abhishek Banne looked like.

Mr. Shetty, can't you recognise him?

Mr. Shetty.
- Yes.

If you want to rest,
you can go out for some fresh air.

No, this is not Abhishek Banne.

Mr. Shetty, forget about this.

Do you remember he had a scar
on his right cheek?

Vikas, which scar are you
talking about?

Hey...

'Sorrow means sadness.'

'It is expressed from the body language
and not the face.'

'The shoulders and neck
should droop down.'

'Like you are really tired.'

'Now, the face.'

'Lips, downwards.'

'Nostrils should be wide open.'

'Eyes have to be wet.'

'For that close your eyes, '

'and roll your eyeballs at the back.'

'It will hurt, but you will get
tears in your eyes.'

'And you will improve in
expressing sorrow.'

Mr. Vikas,

you are not at fault.

My husband

had some old enmity with Abhishek.

But Mrs. Seema,

what was Mr. Dheeraj doing here
at 3:00 a.m.?

First Monday of every month,

we used to close the restaurant.

And your brother,

he would try to make something new,

which the customers would like.

Did anyone else know about this
other than you two?

The staff?

No.

The restaurant was closed that day.

Are you sure no one knows?

No.

Okay, I shall leave now.

I found Abhishek Banne's picture.

But how did you see him in Mumbai?

I had gone to Mumbai to meet
my daughter Chaya.

When getting my picture clicked,
he too was captured in it.

Can you send me the picture
through phone or e-mail?

I don't use e-mail.

I will send it to you
from the post office.

No, let it be.

You give me your address,

I will collect it myself.

Please don't tell anyone
about this picture.

You got it, right?
- Yes.

I got it.
- Tell me the address.

'Kamla Khot..'

'Kamla Khot..'

'House number 16.'

'Third cross, '

'Sarangwadi.'

'I will come immediately.'

'Just check if it is okay.'

Mr. Shetty, you may leave.
We found the picture.

Very good. We wouldn’t have
gotten anywhere like this.

Vikas, even you may leave.

You found the picture?
- Yes.

Thank you so much. Let's go.
- Yes.

This is superb news.

The best thing is, Ira Ma’am and I
are going to Sarangwadi

to meet the lady
who gave the tip.

I am sure it must be Shobha Patil from
Sarangwadi. She is a broadcaster.

No, Mr. Vikas, This is some Kamla Khot.

Okay. No matter who she is,
we must get the picture.

Fingers crossed. Yes, thank you.
- Okay.

I am sorry.

Let's go.

'Abhishek, there's good news.'

Kamla Khot from our village

has a picture of you
from seven years ago.

I don't believe that we are
going to the place

where they found the dead bodies
of seven women.

Six Laksh. Seventh body never found.

Is this your best speed?

Increase the speed or let me drive.

We are going by road,

not by air.
- We have to go by water too.

I found my sister's necklace
in your bag.

Yes.

She returned it to me
after we broke up.

I wanted to sell it off.

I threw it.

It was a very cheap thing to sell.

At least now, tell me,

how did you become Sammit Patel
from Abhishek Banne?

You don't need to know that.

Yes, but your wife is
connected to it, right?

She doesn't have any idea.

She is a famous police officer..

Hey, you...

I have some important interviews
stored in it.

Do you like your interviews
more than your life?

Don't forget
I'm Bala Banne's son.

I won't hesitate for a second
to kill you.

You can test me.
- Hey, please.

Do you remember Kamla Khot's house?

I remember everything.

'Oh, the wicked spirit.'

'I will destroy you.'

Look over here!

Leave, leave her.

‘I’ll banish this spirit today!’
- ‘Get away.’

‘Abhishek...’

Come let’s go home.

Do you remember this?

Kamla ma’am used to dry mangoes here
and you would steal it.

I don't remember this,
that means you'd have stolen it.

Okay, listen.

I will go inside and talk to her.

Okay? I will hide the picture in
a drawer and text you.

I will get Kamla ma’am out to
introduce her to the police.

You go inside, take the picture
and leave from the back road.

We will meet directly at the ferry.

Okay? Done? Any question?

If you do something wrong

and Kamla Khot sees me,

I will kill both of you.

Do you have any questions?

Kamla Ma’am!

Kamla Ma’am, I am Vikas Sarode.

I have come from Mumbai.

I am a journalist.

Where are you?

Kamla Ma’am?

What happened, who did this?

What happened?

Who are you?

You are Abhishek Banne, right?

My name is Victor. Victor Telkar.

Did you recognise me?
- No.

You must know Rosy Telkar, right?

Rosy Telkar. - I don't know.
What did you do inside?

The police is here.

Let's go.

Meet me at the lighthouse
at 6:00 p.m. I'll tell you everything.

One sec.

You check inside, I'll look here.
- Yes, ma'am.

Oh, Vikas Sir?!

Abhishek Banne!

Abhishek Banne?

Thief!

Hello?

Where are you?
- Ask me if I am alive or not.

What happened inside? I hope
the police didn't get the picture.

I don't know.

Somebody hit me from behind
and I fell unconscious.

His name is Victor Telkar.

He was talking about some Rosy Telkar.

Find out who they are.
