CJ receives a call from Mehta. "Sir…..Shyam Sundar hamare paas hai…."
CJ: Good! Tum wahin raho, main aata hun….
He tucks a revolver grimly into his clothes as his henchmen escort him to the place from where Mehta has called.
Arriving there, he receives a call from Parvatlal. "Sir ji….aap kahaan hai….humne suna ki aap jail se…"
CJ: Main tumse baad mein baat karta hun…… (ends the call and switches off his phone)
Shyam Sundar is tied to a chair, looking terrified. CJ smirks and comes to stand in front of him.
CJ: (meancingly) Anuj Shastri ke murder ke baare mein kya jaante ho?
SS: Tum….tum toh jail mein the na….iss tarah tum bach nahin sakte…police tumhe phir se pakad legi…aur tumhari sazaa aur badh jayegi…..
CJ laughs. "Jail se bhaagne ki kitni sazaa aur milegi? 6 mahine….ek saal…? Lekin agar tumne apna muh khol diya, toh main zindagi bhar jail mein sadta rahunga….jo main nahin chahta…!"
SS: (stammering) Mujhe….mujhe kuch nahin pata….
Mehta pulls out a gun and hands it to CJ, who holds it to SS's temple. "Kuch nahin jaante….?"
SS breaks out in a cold sweat. As CJ places his finger on the trigger, he starts speaking—
After coming to Mumbai, he still nursed bitterness against Anuj Shastri for throwing him out of work like that. Many years later, one day he was at the hospital for a minor complaint when he recognized Neha Shastri. Before he could talk to her, her husband joined her. All his old hurt against Anuj welled up. He resolved to talk to him that very day.
Anuj and Neha were at the hospital for their daughter's treatment. In the evening, they went home for a brief rest. SS followed them. Arriving near their house, he realized that he could not talk to Anuj in front of the tense and concerned mother. When Anuj left the house a while later, apparently having quarreled with his wife, SS followed him. He went to a house in another part of the city and rang the bell, asking for CJ. SS was hiding nearby, and he could hear sounds of a quarrel between the two men. To his shock, a suppressed shot rang out, which SS managed to hear because he was crouching by the side of the house. Terrified of being seen, he fled from the place.
As he finishes his account, CJ goes "tch tch". SS stares petrified at him.
CJ: I'm sooo sorry…..maine tumhe pehchaane mein zaraa der kar di….ab yaad aaya….tumhi toh Nainital mein, uss raat duty pe the, jab maine apne bhai ko goli de kar, hamesha ke liye sula diya tha…..Shyam Sundar, tumhari kismet bahut kharab hai…tum mere haathon kiye gaye ek nahin, 2-2 murders ke gawah ho…..ab tumhhi batao, main tumhe aaraam ki neend sulaye bina, khud aaraam se kaise so sakta hun….?
He points the gun straight at SS and presses the trigger. There is a faint "click" but nothing happens. CJ stares in fury at Mehta, who starts running. CJ curses aloud and reaches into his clothes for his own gun. But just as he is pulling it out, a shot rings out and he finds himself thrown to the floor.
Looking up, he finds ACP Pradyuman pointing a gun straight at him.
"CJ…..you are under arrest!!"
