Scene- Bureau, The next day.

(Everyone is in the bureau. Ajay, Suhaani, Asha, Dia, Dia's boss, and the CID team are there. Salunkhe and Tarika join them. Abhi gives Tarika a glance and then looks away. Daya and Dia keep on exchanging glances. Suhaani is avoiding Acp's men and is close to her aunt. Suddenly enter the men the group was awaiting- Commissioner of Mumbai police and the DCP of CID and the DIG. The deputy head of CBI also joins them. It is an emergency meeting.)

(Acp Pradyuman take the awaited guests to inside his office cubicle, while the others wait outside in the bureau.)

Daya (moving a liitle near Dia)-Dia, tum Mumbai kab aayi?

Dia- Jis din Haanaa CID join kiya.

Daya- Itne saal ki baad… Tumhaari pati Delhi mein?

Dia- Pati? Par meri shaadi hui nahi

Daya (extremely relieved but confused next moment)- Par mujhe kissine batayethe tumhaari shaadi ho juki hai?

Dia- Jhoot hai, Daya. (she smiles). I missed you a lot.

Daya- Mei bhi. Tum toh mera pehla best friend thi college mei. Kyon achaanak beena bataye tum Delhi chale gayi thi?

Dia- Kya karu, Daya! Mocka nahi mila meine! Family main ek problem hi thi aur papa ka sudden transfer hua tha. Aur mujhe toh jaanayi hua tha!

Daya- Aur meine socha tumne mujhe cchod kar shaadi karne gayi thi.

(Both of them silently laugh together a bit.)

Dia- Par mei ab Mumbai mei hoon.

Daya- Aur promise karo tum mera saath contact rakhna!

Dia- Haan haan Daya, zaroor rakhungi…

Abhi (coming near Daya)- Daya, kuch baat hain.

Daya (excusing himself from Dia, moving closer to Abhi)- Kya boss?

Abhi- Acp Ajay yahaa se gayab. Suhaani bhi.

(Suddenly Daya looks around. The two were nowhere around)

Daya- Ho sakte hai dono beech mei koi baat ho raha hain…

(Suddenly they see Suhaani entering, Ajay following closely following)

Ajay- Suhaani! Mera baat ek baar sun lo!

Daya- Acp Ajay. Aap mera colleague ko pareshan kyon kar rahe ho!

Ajay- Er.. Kuch nahi… (Looks away)

(Daya looks at Suhaani who mouths "thanks" at him before going to Dia)

(The meeting between the heads get over. Acp, Dcp, Dig, commissioner and the CBI Dd come out. Dia's boss and Ajay move to them. More whispers among the group. Then the Dcp, Dig and the Dd leave. Everyone salutes them as they leave. While going out they look and nod at Asha, who nods back)

Ajay- Acp kya hua. Kuch naya decision?

Acp- Aap bhi ek suspect ho toh mei aap ko nahi bata sakti.

Ajay- Accha! Meine yahaa mera biwi ki khooni ko doond raha hoon aur tum yahaa mujhe shaq kar rahe ho?

Acp- Suhaani.

(Suhaani comes forward)

Suhaani- Leave Acp sir alone.

Ajay- Suhaani, meine…

Suhaani- Meine kahaa unko chhod do

Abhi- Acp Ajay. Aap yahaa jhagra karne nahi aaya ho. Please co-operate.

(Ajay sighs and moves away to a corner to his men, mumbling to himself.)

Acp- Mera transfer ki order aa gaya hain.

Daya and Abhi and Asha- KYA!

Suhaani- Par sir ek din gaya hain aur unhe toh ek hafta time diya tha!

Acp- Meine ky karu. Humaare investigation ho raha hai. Lekin khon par khonn ho jaa rahe hai. CBI se ye order aa gaya hai.

Asha- Par sir…

Acp- Ab woh narcotics agency ki officer ko bhi yeh aadmi maara hai. Information aa gaya hai ki humaare khilaaf teen spy kaam kar rahe hai andar se… (Becomes sad)

Suhaani- Sir, maine DCP ke saath baat karungi. Yeh nahi ho sakta!

Abhi- Sir humme aapko nahi jaane dunga.

Acp- Aaj hi Dia ki peeta aa rahe hai temporary ACP hone ke liye.

(Everyone looks shocked and turns around to Dia who equally looked shocked)

Salunkhe- Acp saab meine aapka saath jaaunga.

Asha- Yeh kaisa ho sakta hai!

Daya- Yahaa humme investigation koshish kar raha hoon aur yahaa yeh sab humaare Acp sir ka transfer ki baare mei soch rahe hain.

Acp (Wisely)- Tum sab dhaan se sun lo. Mujhe ghadbar lag rahe hain. Kuch to hain. Maine chaahta hoon tum sab ek saath kaam karo. Kuch toh zaroor milege. Ab mei jaa raha hoon. I am sure I will come back. All the best.

(With that ACP Pradyuman, despite everyone's protests, leaves)

Scene- Some house

(Man 2 receives a call from his saab. As he listens he becomes very happy. He laughs in glee. He then hangs up and takes a picture from his picture and lecherously kisses it. Addressing it he said-"Wah! Ab toh saari raaste khol gaya! Hahaha. Ab toh maine paisa mil gaye aur mai tujhe uthakar le jaonga. Hahaha!". )The picture is of Aina!

Scene- Bureau

(Everyone except the main CID team has left. The atmosphere was glum. The new ACP was to arrive soon and no one was in a mood to talk. Abhi, Daya and Suhaani were going through their files and all the information they had got so far. Muskaan and Vivek were checking on their records for any possible suspects. Freddy was sitting by himself, emotional. Tasha is helping around. Suddenly Asha enters. Everyone looks up and becomes surprised.)

Suhaani- Mausi? Tum achaanak?

Asha- Acp saab kahi nahi jaa rahe hain. Woh sab cchaal tha. Dekha nahi woh sab mere saraf nod kiya tha! Actually yehi humaare dushman chaahta hai. Ab koi nahi bach payega humaara jaal se.

Abhi- Kya? (He looks so happy that he feels like hugging someone.)

Daya- Yeh baat hai! Thank god! (Clapping his forehead in relief)

(Freddy and others come up happily. Suhaani hugs her aunt momentarily)

Asha- Yeh baat sirf tum logone jaante ho, Acp sir, maine aur humaare bosses. Bas. Aur Dia ki papa nahi jaante hai. Okay? Ab mujhe jaana hoga. Maine baat mei contact karungi.

(She leaves stealthily)

(Moments later a man enters. Daya recognizes him as Dia's father.)

New Acp[here we will call him na for new acp]

Na- Good morning officers.

The CID team together- Morning.

Na- (To Daya)- Tum Senior inspector Daya ho, na?

Daya (Coldly)- Hm. (He thinks to himself " iska verjade pehle Dia chali gayi uski baad Acp sir ne chale gaye")

Na- Please introduce your fellow officers.

(Daya introduces everyone).

Na (To Suhaani)- Tum bhi yahaa?

Suhaani- Aap toh jaante ho kyon.

Na- I don't think you will get your father's killer.

Abhi- Kyon?

Na- Meine pehle se kaha tha. Yeh aadmi accha nahi tha iss liye.

Suhaani (Clenching her fists)- Aa-aap aise kyon baat kar rahe ho?

Na- Aise…

Abhi- Aap kaise yeh baat kehsekte hai? Ek baap ki beti ki saamne. Aur toh aur uski dost toh aapka beti.

Na- Baat mei baat mat karo. Mei yahaa tumhara nayi Acp.

(Suddenly Suhaani lost her cool)

Suhaani- Meine aapke saath kaam nahi karungi

Na (Somehow gleefully)- Toh badge do mujhe.

(Everyone got shocked at his behaviour)

Suhaani (Smirking)- Aapko nahi. Acp sir ke baad mei meri apne boss ke pass mei responsible hoon.

(With that she smartly handed her badge to Abhijeet, slightly winks and leaves. While others were shocked and Na was embarrassed, Daya and Abhi were the only ones to have understood that Suhaani had a plan.)

Scene- Suhaani's house (Later, at night)

(Abhi and Daya and Muskaan have come on the sly to Suhaani's place. Suhaani led them to her living room.)

Suhaani- Sir am sorry meine bhaag gayi thi. Taaki aap mujhe bool samjhe, meine aapko wink kiya thi.

Abhi- Tum accha kaam kiya Suhaani. Humaara shq ab iss aadmi pe aaya hai.

Suhaani- Iss liye meine bhaag aayi!

Daya- Kya Asha aur Diya jaante hai?

Suhaani- Dia was shocked. Aur Mausi yeh expect kiya hei.

Muskaan- Ab humaare kya plan?

Suhaani- Aap sab jab bureau mei thei tab meine apni kaam kiya thi. Maine us jagah mei gayi thi jaha Ramesh ka laash mi gaye thei.

Abhi- Waha kyon?

Suhaani- Uska laash policewaaoh laya tha, CID nahi. Aur hum jaante hain police mein bhi spy hai. Toh meine biswaas nahi kiya woh sab kuch nahi mila. Aur kaise pata chal gaye aise anjaan jagah mein ek laash hoga! Toh meine Diya ki bike par gayi thi.

(Others were impressed)

Abhi- Kuch mila?

Suhaani- Sir. Joh aadmi laya tha woh mujhe lakta hai jhooth kaha. Mei abhi layi hoon yeh sabooj. Hum ab aage jaa skti hoon.

(She leaves the room and comes back)

Suhaani- Yeh dekho.

(Everyone looked at the object- A video camera.)

Scene- Bureau

(It is night. After Na left, the entire CID team, Suhaani having joined them a little after after Na's leaving, was in the viewing room. The video cam was switched on and linked to the highscreen computer. Salunkhe and Tarika were with them.

As the CD started rolling they saw three men speaking. They were not heard and they were at a distance from the cam.

Salunkhe zoomed in but the video became slightly blurred. They tried to identify the men. Two of them were familiar but beyond recognition. The third one was unknown. Salunkhe then suggested that they give him the CD. The next night around same time they will meet here. He will try to to something about it.)

Scene- Outside. Daya's car.

(Late night and Daya had proposed to drop everyone home. Everyone was disappointed and so welcomed it.)

Abhi- Yeh ek kaafi hard case. Sab sabuj ek raaste mei aate hain aur woh bandh raasta…

Daya- Kuch toh hoga boss, fickar mat karo. Suhaani toh ek zaroori sabuj laayi hai.

Suhaani- Abhi sir aap bahut pareshaan ho jaa rahe ho.. Just chill.

(Suddenly Abhi's phone rings)

Abhi (to Daya)- Bahut raat ho gaya. Iss waqt Kumarji….

Daya- Phone uthao. Kuch to hua hai!

(Abhi picks up the call and switches on speaker mode)

Kumarji's rasping breath- Abhi beta… please bachao Aina ko! A-a-aina! Woh… woh ch..chi.. Chimbu ley gaye hai! Aa- aa- a… (The phone went dead.)

(Then) Daya and Abhi- CHIMBU!

Abhi- Daya jaldi Kumarji ka ghar chalo! Fast!

(Everyone becomes tensed. Daya reaches the house within ten minutes. Everyone gets off and rushes towards the house, their guns out. The door was shut.)

Abhi- Daya, darwaaza toh do! Jaldi!

BRAT-ACK!

(The CID team rushes in. The house had lights on. Guns out each officer checks out the rooms. No sound, no one around. Abhi becomes tensed. Then-)

"Sir! Yahaa!"

Abhi- Haan Vivek!

(Everyone rush into a room to see Kumarji lying dead. Suhaani bent down and checked)

"Dead, sir."

(Abhi gets agitated.)

Abhi- Ek Cancer patient ko…

Daya (Patting his shoulder)- Humme ab Aina ko doonda hoga!

(Suddenly)Suhaani- Sir. Khooni mil gayi. Jo jo khoon hua woh sab Chimbu ne kiya hai! (She points towards the hole at the old man's back and the torn jugular vein) Aise tha…

Scene- Bureau

(Abhijeet is agitated. He is walking up and down pensively. Daya and the others are checking on Chimbu. Suhaani is of course not there.)

Na (As he enters)- Morning officers

(Everyone was too busy to notice him)

Na (Clearing his throat)- Ahem! Morning officers!

(No one paid him any attention)

(Then) Abhi- Morning. Aap paani chaahiye?

Na- Paani?

Abhi- woh aap cough kar rahe thei is liye meine puccha.

Na- Yeh sab kya kar rahe hai?

Abhi- O iss case ki barabar.

Na- O. Kuch mila?

Abhi- Nahi, your honour.

Na- Haan? Tum aise kaise baat kar rahe ho?

Abhi- Aise hum humaare Acp ke saath baat karte hoon

Na (Irritated)-Uff. (He goes to Acp's cubicle.)

Daya (Chuckling)- Accha hua boss tum usko divert kiya'

Abhi- Doondo doondo'.

(Suhaani's call comes on his phone. With an eye on the cubicle, he answers-"Haan, Haanaa, kuch mila?" He listens, whispers and listens. Then he hangs up)

Daya- Haanaa?

Abhi- Haan. Woh uske liye humaare code. Nickname hai. Suno. Dia ki informer Lambhu Suhaani ko bataya Chimbu iss waqt kaha hain. Chimbu hain yeh saare jigsaw puzzle ki clue.

Daya- Toh hum chalte hain!

Abhi- Vivek, Freddy aur Tasha! Tum log iss aadmi ko rokna, divert karna. Humme aur Muskaan jaa rahe hoon.

Freddy- Jee sir. Freddy hai naa. Iss aadmi ko pata bhi nahi hoga kya chal rahe hain.

Daya- Good. Thanks.

(With that the three officers quickly but quietly left the bureau.)

Scene- A kind of chawl area.

(Abhi, Daya and Muskaan reach and get down from the car. A biker comes towards them and takes off the helmet. It was Suhaani.)

Suhaani- Abhi sir. Iss saraf .(She gestures with her head) Chale?

(The four then coolly walk ahead, pretending to be just ordinary people walking aimlessly.)

(Then a man walking towards them gives a sign to Suhaani that a house to their left was the house)

Abhi- Woh Lambhu?

(Suhaani nods)

(The four then stand in front of the door. Muskaan and Daya knock loudly on the door. An old woman opens the door. The officers suddenly snatch their guns and force themselves in.)

Abhi (To the oldie)- Namaste maaji, tumhaara pyaare Chimbu beta kaha hai, ain?

Oldie- K-k-kaun hai aap sab.

Suhaani- Sir, koi yahaa nahi hai. (To the oldie) O hum uska dost hai.

Oldie- Woh toh shaadi karne gaya!

Daya (exchanging a quick look with Abhi)- Shaadi?

Oldie- Tum log uska dost ho! Jaante ho toh!

Muskaan- Hum CID se. Bataao. Woh ladki kaha hai, varna'

Oldie (Stuttering)- W-w-w-wwoh bahut paise mila hai, woh iss ladki ko chaahte thei' Meine nahi jaanti hoon kaha hai..

Suhaani- Agar nahi bataange toh tum'

Oldie- BATAATI HOON!!! Woh Ram lakshmi mandir mei jaa rahe hai. Abhi abhi jaa rahe hai. Uss saraf hai (Pointing).

Abhi (Disgusted)- Ek Bandar naukar ek educated doctor ko'. Sharmi nahi aati!

(The officers rush out)
