Episode #44
My excitement for this episode was at a different level all together!! and it delivered!! I know i said that one of the previous episodes had a perfect balance but this one tops that. This was perfect!👏
Episode starts with a guy named pavan and girl named arti running through a jungle in punjab. They were being chased by a group of men headed by manoj tiwari with fire torches. While arti and pavan were hiding behind a rock, she turns around and sees that pavan had disappeared. She sees someone else behind the trees and screams. When manoj reaches there he sees a man dressed in all black, big nails, dirty hair and holding a skull, blood was dripping from his mouth. Manoj is shocked to see this and the others run for their life.
Next we see vikrant and aditi driving into the village, aditi was on call with suresh dutt, and informs him that the villagers think that the local kidnappings are done by a devil that resides in the jungle and they call him "narbhakshi. Aditi brief's him about the case and tells him that the last incident was 2 yrs back when another couple had gone missing. She also informs suresh sir that her and vikrant are going in the village as undercover crime reporters as the locals are not ready to talk to the police. Suresh warns then that since they are not taking any help from the local police, he won't be able to help them internally. He tells them to be careful as the people of that area are very aggressive and "baat baat pe katta nikal dete hai (take out their guns for silly reasons). Vikrant laughs at this.
When they reach the village, vikrant goes to arti's house and introduces himself as crime reporter vikrant singhal, from daily samachar. He tells arti's mother that they want to make a news documentary on their daughters kidnapping and need to ask them a few questions. The mother goes inside and calls arti's father. During the interview, arti's father says that his daughter is not kidnapped, infact she's taken by the narbhakshi. Vikrant tries hinting at pavan's disappearance and asks if pavan and arti had a relationship. At this arti's father gets mad and asks vikrant to get lost. While vikrant was walking through the village, another woman asks him what he is doing here and he repeats the same intro to her and asks her if she has seen the narbhakshi herself. She denies seeing him and tells vikrant that people are scared of it, and no one goes to the jungle at night. Another random guy threatens vikrant to break his camera if he doesn't stop his interviews. Vikrant apologizes and leaves. (Like seriously?? 😲Vikrant was too much into his undercover. And very very calm as compared to the guy who is so aggressive these days.)
Aditi on the other hand interviews pavan's father who tells her pavan and arti were just good friends and he has no idea if they were more than that. Aditi and vikrant meet up to discuss the findings at a tea stall, aditi mentions that she thinks that something was going on between arti and pavan. Vikrant adds that even if there was something it makes no sense for them to go the jungle at night. The shop owner hears them talk and chimes in, he tells them that arti and pavan were a couple but arti had another admirer, manoj tiwari who had planned along with his friends to kill pavan.
(Btw aditi and vikrant were looking really adorable when they were sitting at the tea stall.)
Later at night aditi and vikrant go to manoj's house. There his father tells them that he had returned home that night scared but then had left and has not come back since. Aditi inquires why they haven't gone to the police and he replies that the local police are very incompetent, there was only one thakur family who used to help people but now even they are not there and the last surviving member of the family has locked himself in the house. Vikrant gives his number to Mr. Tiwari and asks him to contact him in case they hear anything about manoj. At the same time a constable comes and calls vikrant and aditi outside, where ASI goyal waiting for them. He talks to aditi and vikrant very rudely for coming into the village and asks them to hand over their IDs. Vikrant starts arguing with him that he cant take away their IDs as its against the law. ASI threatens to arrest them for trespassing, vikrant continues the argument. (Ah the ever charming trouble magnet! 😆) Aditi tries to diffuse the situation by handing over her ID, she was boring holes into vikrant with her eyes and pleading him to not to continue the argument. Vikrant on the other hand had his own staring contest with the ASI, he finally looks at aditi and hands over his ID too. The ASI warns them to not to leave the hotel room until the IDs are returned and he leaves.
Next morning, aditi and vikrant go to the thakur's haveli. On the way vikrant asks her if she could ask in a favor from her journalist friends and get their IDs back. Aditi says that the ASI looks like a dangerous man and let him do what he want to do right now. The main gate was locked, so vikrant climbs over the compound and opens the gate for aditi. They are stopped by the watchan and escorted outside,saying thakur is not at home and that he doesn't meet anyone. While leaving vikrant and aditi see the window being closed. Its night now while returning, (how do their days even work!) vikrant and aditi see a girl entering the forest, they follow her inside and they hear some weird noises. Vikrant asks aditi to take the girl back home and he goes into the jungle to investigate the voices. He sees someone in the jungle and starts following it, but it disappears. When he was inside, an old guy with a lantern creeps up behind him and asks him to come along if he wants to know more about "narbhakshi. Vikrant follows him to a house, and again introduces himself as crime reporter. The old guy asks him what is he doing with a gun if he is reporter and vikrant tells him its for his own protection. They enter the house and the old guy starts telling vikrant about narbhakshi's nature and mentions, "agar aap kisike pravrutti ko pehchante hai to aap use bach bhi sakte hai aur jaroorat pade to mar bhi sakte hai. Vikrant gets a call from manoj's father that he has returned home and he apologizes the old man for the food and leaves. (I so thought the guy was narbhakshi himself and had fed vikrant human flesh).
When vikrant reaches manoj's house along with aditi, they see that manoj is traumatized and is of no use to question him. They leave the house and find the ASI waiting for them outside again. He throws their IDs at them, and tells them that the thakur has called them to their haweli and be there on time next day. Next evening, vikrant goes to the haweli for dinner. As he entered the haweli, he sees the thakur was reading a book, the thakur welcomes vikrant and introduces himself as retired colonel arjun singh thakur. Vikrant inturn introduces himself as crime reporter. The thakur inquires about aditi and vikrant lies that she's not feeling well and is resting at the hotel. As they walk to the dining table, thakur tries to get more information about vikrant who feeds him half truths. (the same baap ki marble ki factory and bhag ke Mumbai ana and journalism karna) At this the thakur asks him why he didn't join the police force instead. Vikrant is surprised by this and says a crime reporters job is as dangerous as a policemans.
While having dinner, thakur starts discussing about cannibalism (I again thought vikrant was fed human flesh, kahi bhi kuchh bhi khata hai ye banda). Vikrant tries to give some random general answers but the thakur is kind of in narbhakshi's favor. Vikrant says that he's bit a bit scared of thakur, what if he has tried something like that over the years. Slowly the thakur takes his hands off the table, and so does vikrant. Vikrant takes out his gun but doesn't raise it yet, they both are staring at each other. And suddenly the thakur repeats the same words that were said by the old man in the jungle, and vikrant completes his statement for him, "agar aap kisike pravrutti ko pehchante hai to aap use bach bhi sakte hai aur jaroorat pade to mar bhi sakte hai. Vikrant is surprised and confused by this. The takhur takes out this cigar from the pocket and vikrant relaxes and keeps his gun back. The thakur continues, "Ek accha shikari wo hai jo apni shikar ki jaroorat samajh kar, usi jaroorat ko uski kamjori bana de.
(These are golden words btw)
As vikrant leaves the haweli, he gets a call from aditi who tells him that all the missing people where couples and asks him if he has found out anything. Vikrant tells her that in his career of 10 yrs this is the first time he is not able to judge a person, and he thinks that the thakur knows about them. Aditi tells him that they have less time on their hands and need to hurry. She adds that she's going to question the girl they found and vikrant tells her he will go to the jungle again. While aditi was walking on the road, she's attacked by someone, sedated and taken. At the jungle, vikrant repeats the quote, "Ek accha shikari wo hai jo apni shikar ki jaroorat samajh kar, usi jaroorat ko uski kamjori bana de and drops his torch and gun thinking that's his kamjori and jaroorat and waits for the narbhakshi.
When the narbhakshi attacks him, vikrant fights back and injures the narbhakshi and realizes that it's ASI goyal with a mask. ASI goyal tells him that the kidnapped people are not killed, he was doing this along with thakur only to stop honor killings in the area, vikrant doesn't believe him. But this time to restore people's fear in narbhakshi, they will have to kill someone. Vikrant asks him what he meant by it and the ASI laughs at him and says, that vikrant misunderstood thakur's quote, and his (vikrant's) kamjori is right now in thakur's possession. Vikrant realizes it aditi and hits goyal again and gets aditi's location.
At the haweli, aditi gains consciousness and finds herself tied to the bed and thakur siting infront of her. Thakur confesses to her that they used to kidnap couples and let them have a happy life outside the village, and that he had done this because his father had killed his girlfriend, ASI's sister years back in the name of honor killing. He tells aditi that too continue the task he needs to kill her and brings out a knife. As he was about to slash aditi's throat, vikrant bursts the door and come inside, he hits the thakur and asks aditi if she's fine. (arre yaar! U could have knocked the thakur unconscious and freed aditi and checked for wounds first. Anywho) Vikrant is about to shoot the thakur, (the pure rage in his eyes) when aditi tells him the truth and tires stops him, but since vikrant had mistaken to judge the thakur before he's not ready to believe him. Somehow he's convinced and they decide not to arrest thakur as he has not killed anyone.
Later at mumbai, vikrant and aditi report to suresh dutt and he is informed that the village is now under a new PI, who is vikrants junior and he believes he is able of protecting the people and putting an end to honor killing.
