Bhoot (2003)
This way
"No dearth of flats, sir. You don't like this, I'll show you one there" Never trust the rain in Bombay. It always catches you by surprise When you are through with weather analysis... "tell me where next. - Don't you worry, sir" "If not this, I'll show you another. This was just in case you liked it" That's a nice building Do you have a flat there? There is one "What are you hiding it for? - Come, have a look" It's a duplex The previous occupants left it. You can keep it if you like That's the kitchen It's a handy loft How do you like the bedroom? - This is what I call house I'll take it if the rent is reasonable Rent is not an issue sir But... But what? "The thing is, a lady who used to stay here... " fell off the balcony and died From here? - Yes. But why? - Who knows Some say she was mad Others believe it was a suicide. Hope you are not superstitious? In every house around the world somebody or the other dies What has the poor house got to do with it Who is the owner? - Mr Thakkar Lives next door. He's also the secretary of this building Hello Mr Thakkar. Meet Mr Vishal He wants to rent your flat I've told him about Manjeet's death He has no problem You'll enjoy your stay here Where are you off to? Mind your tongue - Who are you? Never seen you before. - We've come to stay in 1201 Not here... that way People who lived before us left it. Keep it if you want And that's the kitchen Do you like it? I'm the maid Used to work here before Who told you about us? Mr Thakkar "All right, come from tomorrow" She seems a little... The lift doesn't work "No, I'd just gone to the market" What's it? - The lift is working again Why didn't you ring the bell? - The door was open What do you want? It's the society bill Why didn't you give me downstairs? - I forgot Okay. Go now And don't you ever enter without ringing the bell Coming But why didn't you tell me before? - Forget it now. I've warned him He shouldn't forget he's a watchman. Like this he can be quite a nuisance These days where do you get good people for work? "But Mr Thakkar, that does not mean we tolerate this nonsense" You're right But the thing is... after Manjeet's death "he became a witness in the case, and then... " Who's this Manjeet? Swati doesn't know A woman jumped off this flat and died And you didn't even think it important to inform me "Why make a mountain out of a molehill? - Is this something trivial, Vishal?" "Swati, just because a women died here, should we leave this house?" Every other house has deaths. That doesn't make people leave their homes How can you believe in such superstitious nonsense? And what reason did I have to hide this from you? Only because I wanted you to be as happy about the house as I was Still if you feel that I should have told you... then I'm sorry But am I not right? Even Manjeet's ghost would have agreed with me Somebody is there inside Who? I don't know but there is somebody Nobody here Must have got knocked off by the wind But what if that women... What women? I was sitting here watching the TV And then for a moment I thought I saw a woman... standing here right behind me What do you mean by you thought? I mean she was there "But when I turned, she wasn't there" "What are you saying, Swati?" "And anyway, what are you doing here at this time?" I couldn't sleep... so I thought I'd watch TV for a while Then you must have fallen asleep watching the TV And this noise must have woken you up What? "All right, sorry. But you were a sight to behold last night" "I know, but there is no need to make fun of me" "Salaam, sir" So what do you want to watch? - I... I want to watch 'Straight From The Heart' I'm tired of watching these stupid romantic films I'm also tired of your idiotic action films Let's go for Spiderman today "And next time we'll straight away watch "Straight from the heart" "What's straightaway Straight from...? - Come on, aren't they all the same?" I'm through with the day's work "Memsaab, I'm through with the day's work" Weren't you thinking about Manjeet? "Please, can you forget her for me?" Where were you going? Were you sleepwalking? Vishal... that woman What woman? I told you yesterday Now don't tell me that you dreamt of her again Let's go now I've never walked in my sleep "If I had, I would have known" Well that's okay. There is nothing much to worry about "Of course, there is" "For god sake, sleepwalking is not common cold" Maybe you were tired. That does not mean you walk in your sleep "Swati, don't let this thing get to your head" Just forget about it Coconut water? You can wait outside In medical terms sleepwalking is called somnambulism It's the result of a severe emotional trauma I think the news of Manjeet's death has disturbed her a lot But there's nothing to worry It's easily curable by medication The doctor said that you've lost it Ask Hiren bhai to start the proceedings Can't we do it tomorrow? - Why don't you go? I just remember the maid leaving after work I don't even remember sleeping What do you mean you don't remember sleeping? How can you sleepwalk without sleeping? Everything will be all right How did I reach that house? You remember a few days back... we were speaking about that open door maybe that remained in your head And... can one ever make sense of one's dreams? I hope nothing is happening to me No. Nothing is happening to you Remember what the doctor told you? Take a pill and go to sleep and everything will be all right Everything will be fine One can stab One can shoot But what is the need to wring someone's neck like this to kill? What it takes to twist the neck completely like this... do you have any idea? I want to know everything about him "When did he join work, when did you see him the first time" When was he seen last Do you stay alone in this house? About the incident... have to talk... "You had a tiff with the deceased, I hear" "He misbehaved with my wife, she reprimanded him" Where's your wife? - What's the need? I'm telling you Just wanted to check for any clues She's sleeping It's a murder case. Wake her up She isn't feeling well What happened? "Manjeet Khosla used to live in this house, right?" What... Manjeet? "Manjeet is here, Vishal?" Where? I think we'll need to consult a psychiatrist Dr Rajan would be right Oh! He's here? Dr. Rajan's daughter has blood cancer "She is admitted in this hospital, won't survive too long" I'm feeling very scared "There's no need to be scared, my child. You'll be all right" You are lying I'm going to die Don't talk like this "I'm feeling very scared, Papa" "Dr Shyam, wants to meet you if possible" I'll be back Sorry to trouble you at this time This is Mr Vishal "Doctor, something is happening to my wife" Listen! I know that you see Manjeet Don't think that I don't trust you because I'm a doctor. "You can sense her, I can't" That's why I need to know more about her Is she with us? Where? Madam is unwell. Don't wake her up She's also hallucinating Is it common? - No... "but that doesn't mean, it does not happen" The knowledge about the dead girl has affected her deeply I'm sure that's the trigger Is your wife...? You're in the share market too...? No. I'm a Psychiatrist "My wife often tells me, that I need a psychiatrist" What happened to Memsaab? "Nothing. Go, get some tea" Papa! I'm feeling very scared Dr Rajan here "Sorry doctor, your daughter is no more" I'm coming "What's all this, doctor?" I've given her an injection to put her to sleep This is a Psychological disorder "Don't be stupid, doctor What is psychological about it?" Can't you see what's happening here? Is it humanly possible? I can understand your view "You know, I have a personal problem" I know I shouldn't do it to you But I have to leave immediately "At least, I'm glad she doesn't have to bear the pain anymore" Vishal had called "I told him about your daughter. If you want, he can refer... " "to some other Psychiatrist. - No, no... no need" I'll take care of it When I was examining Swati... she was behaving strange Laughing... growling and what not I've seen these things before in my practice But maybe because of the circumstances with Swati... for a minute I felt... as if my own daughter Priya was speaking to me. I know it's a strange coincidence. But at that moment... Did you tell Vishal... that his wife suffers from Multiple Personality disorder? It's the first time I hear It was sad to hear about your daughter "Shyam, I'll take leave" Can a person with MPD... pose threat to someone's life? "In some cases, yes" "I have to leave, inspector" What's your opinion? - About? About Vishal's wife I don't discuss my cases with anyone Even I don't do that Saheb... ghost! It's Manjeet's spirit! I recognise her voice Doctors are no good in it Only someone who knows all this can help "Hurry up, sir. Before it's too late" Death takes us to the vast expanse... of darkness that surrounds us And in the little flicker of the light of our lives... we become oblivious to it's reality I'm not professing... that we can know all that lies in the depths of this darkness But by accepting it's existence we can take a step towards understanding it Someone's come to see you My name is Vishal I think my wife... is possessed What's the name? - Whose? I'm sorry I had to leave You must have heard about my daughter Swati is a complicated case of MPD I wanted some tests done on her. Let's take her for them She's come to help me out Help...? "Doctor, maybe after all... it's not just a disease" You mean to say... "she is a witch doctor, some kind of medium... " You are an educated man How can you believe in such nonsense? She's suffering from a mental ailment. - This is not a mental ailment Don't try to teach me. Not everybody is a fool to listen to you There's no need to be rude. I've called her here What kind of madness is this? Can't you see? Your wife needs urgent medical care Medicine is not the answer. - Shut up and don't interfere Enough doctor Enough You have my phone number I need Manjeet's mother's address Why do you need Manjeet's mother's address? Some of her stuff is lying in the house... that we want to return Mr Thakkar said you'd probably know her address "Yes, I know a lot" But not what I want to know I didn't get it Neither did I "Keshu, get the file" Your wife... she's still not recovered Who are you? How did you get in? - We've come to talk about Manjeet Your daughter My daughter But my daughter is dead She's come back Come here quickly There's some problem with Vishal's wife. Make it fast I lied to you Lie! I need your help in a murder case Murder? A gruesome murder I need your help for the right treatment for Vishal's wife How's Swati? She's fine We don't need you for the treatment anymore Sanjay! Mr Thakkar's son "Sanjay! You? - Dad, you look fine" What's wrong with me? Somebody called me to say that you were unwell Who called you to say that I was unwell? "Something's wrong with Swati, we'll have to take her to the hospital" Our new tenants... - Please hurry up "Come on, son" Do you recognize her? The same Manjeet who used to stay here with her son It's her The same girl who you desired And when you couldn't get her... The same girl who while trying to get away from you... The same girl for getting away with whose murder... you had to buy out the watchman And this watchman told the police... that Manjeet in her fit of madness killed herself and her son You don't recall? Are you guys mad? I don't understand what you are trying to say I don't get it What's happening? How did you get in? - The door was open That doesn't mean you barge in like this And didn't I tell you we don't need you anymore? "I need to talk to you. Come on. - Listen, right now I'm... " I hope all that's not true What's happening to you? Say something What was she saying? Was she speaking the truth? "Mr Vishal, your wife suffers from MPD" She's killed the watchman too "Vishal, I know how dangerous a patient can be in case of such a disorder" You love her a lot "And you are doing all this for her, I know" But why don't you get it that she needs treatment in an asylum before she... My wife does not have any mental disorders She is... possessed by a spirit "Vishal, think rationally" That witch doctor... has clouded your reason I'm surprised that an educated man like you... can believe in such superstitious nonsense I beg of you Please give me some time This matter is about to get over soon. Give me some more time Where is Swati? You think Manjeet will let Sanjay go? The police think Swati is mad If Manjeet harms Sanjay they'd put the blame on Swati I'll just tranquilize her Careful She can be quite dangerous in this state "I told you, she is not a mental patient" Why don't you understand? "Stop it, Manjeet" Don't punish Swati for what Sanjay has done to you "Inspector, Manjeet did not commit suicide" Tell them "Speak, Sanjay" Speak up "Yes, I killed her. It was me" Manjeet... "I really love you, my child" But this is not your world You came here for revenge and you've got it Now let these people live their lives "Leave them alone, child" Law has limitations It will only sentence you to death I really wish you get a punishment much worse |
