Next day morning ,
Siddhant’s phone rings .... he checks the caller id .. it was amar .. he attends the call....
Siddhant : hello Amar
Amar : good morning siddhant
Siddhant : good morning ?! *sarcastically* There was nothing good in last 3 days and you are wishing me good morning ...
Amar : arrey sid .. it is really a good morning only , today I got a call from the police station which is in the outskirts of the city.... they said that someone whom they caught 2days back is claiming himself to be inspector Karthik .. first they ignored him but as he was repeatedly telling them the same and asked them to verify it with us .. so they called me today morning...And if he is really Karthik ..then it will be a good morning for us ..
Siddhant : really , ok you come directly to that police station .. I will also reach there with in 20mins ..
They both reach that police station....
they both meet the inspector who had called Amar in the morning ..
Amar : hello sir, I am inspector Amar and this is (pointing towards siddhant ) ACP Siddhant .... you had called me today morning..
Inspector: ohh !! ( he shakes hands with them )hello sir
Amar: you had said that someone is telling himself as inspector Karthik... can we meet him ..
Inspector: sure sir ... constable bring him here ...
Constable : yes sir ..
He brings Karthik there ..
Siddhant : Karthik !!
Inspector : so is he really an inspector ?! But we found him in that old factory .....
Amar : actually sir, he was in undercover operation ..
Inspector to Karthik : I am sorry sir .. I ..
Karthik: no problem sir .. you did your duty only ..
Siddhant : By the way why did you arrest him ?!
Inspector: sir actually we got a complaint from that factory’s owner .. he said that someone is using his closed factory as a hideout .. so we went to the factory and as he said we found him ..
Amar : ok thanks sir .. can we take him with us ..
Inspector: of course sir ..
They three leave from the police station ...
Outside the police station ,
Siddhant : Karthik what were you doing in that old factory??
Karthik : woh sir .. roli took me there
Amar : roli ?!
Karthik: haan
Siddhant : can you exactly tell us what happened two days back ?!
Karthik : sure sir .. two days back .. roli called me near some old barn .. urgently... I also went and met her .. she told me that she found about the undercover cop who is in jwala Devi’s group .. that is me .. she directly asked me about it .. I too admitted everything to her .. I tried to convince her to stop working for jwala .. she was firm in her decision that she will give that file to Jwala Devi .. after that I don’t know what happened .. then when I got my conscious back, I was in the hospital.. and roli was also there .. she emotionally blackmailed me and took me to that old factory .. she told me to stay there for 2-3 days and got all the stuffs needed for my stay .. when I asked her what was the need for me to stay there .. she just closed my mouth with her emotional promise .. and she left ... few mins after that this inspector with his constables came and arrested me ..
Amar : that’s ok but how did you faint ?! And how did the owner knew that someone is there in his old factory ??
Karthik : the inspector told me that the owner received a unknown call telling that someone is using his closed factory as a hideout ... And still now I don’t know how I fainted ?! I didn’t eat anything before going there too .. I just drank the water .. nothing else ....
Siddhant: water ?! In that old barn where did you get water from ?!
Karthik : roli always carries water with her .. she only gave me ...
Amar : accha.. now I understood everything..
Karthik : what sir
Siddhant : in that water which she gave you .. she mixed something to make you faint .... and she is the one who informed that factory’s owner too ...
Karthik : but why ?
Amar : simple, so that she can frame that Atul as inspector Karthik ..
Karthik : whaat ?! Atul??
Siddhant : as she said she gave the file .. but replaced your photo with that Atul’s and as she expected Jwala Devi mistook Atul as you ..beat him mercilessly injuring his spine .. he is paralyzed now ..
Karthik : she tried to save me ??!
Siddhant : haan ..
Karthik : but how ? She is very loyal to Jwala Devi ... then for me .. why did she lie to her .. she always says that because of Jwala Devi only she is the one who she is right now .. then .. why ?!
Siddhant : because she considered you as her own brother ....
Amar : and she is not loyal to Jwala Devi as you say .. she is playing double game ..
Karthik : what !?
Amar : haan .. she is the one who stole those evidences ..
Karthik : ek min .. those evidences are burnt by that shaurya right ..
Siddhant : no karthik .. that day when that shaurya and Vikrant came to warn us .. we found out that the information is leaked.. so me and Amar made fake evidences and Gave it to naina and team .. & planned to submit the evidences before day itself but someone stole it from us ..
Karthik : naina ?! Sir she works for Jwala Devi .. I got to know that from roli .. but couldn’t inform you ..
Amar : no problem .. she is already in our custody .. roli framed her for stealing your file ...
Karthik: whaat ?!
Amar : I will clear your confusions ..listen carefully Karthik .. roli stole those evidences from us but didn’t give it to Jwala Devi ... and passed the information about the fake evidences to jwala .. and jwala burned it along with the Jeep ....then she stole the file which contains your details .. on the way she framed naina in it .. and we got to know that she is working for jwala .. then .. she switched your photo with Atul’s .. and trapped Atul .. then got to know that he is a drug peddler ...also Atul’s sister that is rajveer’s ex PA Meghna turned into approver .. because of which we got evidences that Atul is a drug peddler ..and he will be arrested by the anti narcotic department soon ..
Karthik : now I am confused more ..
Amar : we are also in the same state only .....
Karthik : how did she manage to do all these alone ?!
Siddhant : not alone .. her bua is also involved with her ..
Karthik : bua ?!
Siddhant : haan .. rajjo bua .. why is she doing this ?! What is her motive ?! Only she can answer all these ...
Amar : one minute.. hey Karthik .. you are the only person by whom we can reach roli ..
Karthik : me ?!
Siddhant : what are you saying Amar ?!
Amar : Haan .. sid , till she was 18.. she was in the orphanage.. but after that we don’t know where she was ?! Her hostel address which she gave in your NGO was fake ...so there might be some place where would have stayed ..During that time period only she met Karthik .. so Karthik must have known something about it right ...
Karthik : nahi sir .. she used to shift her hostel every month... but haan she always used to go to vrindavan every now and then ..
Siddhant :Vrindavan?! Her hometown ..
Karthik : hometown ?!
Amar : haan .. she is from vrindavan
Sidhant : Amar .. looks like we should go to Rudy’s house after 6 yrs again ..
Karthik : sir who is this Rudy now ?!
Amar : I will explain everything to you on the way... because it is a lambi kahani...
The trio sets their journey towards vrindavan ...
