The Great Father (2017)
1
l'm still helping you out. Atired opponent, can kill all the fun of the game. Sam, do you know? How good this feels? You've seen flowers, right? Beautiful flowers? The thrill is when you pluck them out & make them yours, not when you wait for them to wither away! Hey! Bloody b@#@$@d! l like this spirit of yours! He is travelling. The signals are moving from the city to the east. Bose! Chandrabose! Get out of my way! Bose, Chandrabose, That wimpy Vishwan, is going to propose to that 'Bragger' Sara. Attracting girls, is an art. Can you do that? l can & l will make her fall for me. Are you prepared? What? What's your plan? Just wait & watch! He will mess it up! She is very gutsy! lf something happens, these guys will be there for you. Bus No.3 is here! Dude, go! Those scoundrels are watching us! Don't embarrass us! Are you happy now that you've gotten him into trouble? 'Oh dear Sara!' You & your Sara! Sara, the flirt is coming. Sara! He will mess up! l'm sure! This is a rare coin! You have a coin collection, right? Ashwin, Notjust a coin collection, l have a stamp collection as well. But if you're planning to woo me with all this, you'll be taught a lesson! Sheesh! - This is his usual trick. All the fools are here! Hey Jimbru, you look handsome! Did you have a bath today? - You fatso! - Dude, stop! Don't hit her! - Get lost! Awesome, Meenu! - l will kill hertoday! - Listen to me! Calm down! Phew! We're lucky! Aren't you narrating the story? lt's not a story! They are real incidents! l know that! Say it! Back then, Mumbai was known as Bombay. Say it like your daddy! Where the pouring rains, and the caressing breeze had the scent of blood - Bombay! Back then, Mumbai was known as Bombay! An age where the stories of the bleeding streets were narrated by guns! When the underworld was ruled by Kareem Lala, Chota Shakeel & Dawood lbrahim. There, my Papa! David Ninan. My dad! Papa's Company wanted to start an apartment project in Andheri. The goons of those underworld dons, Except them! Even after the Police & Collector initiated a clear-off, they didn't agree. And then? His John Lobb shoes are shown! He wears his sunglasses! Papa took out his gun and held their leader at point blank. And thus, he made them vacate Andheri, within an hour! Ya right! Even Mohanlal took one whole night to make them vacate Dharavi. That was Mohanlal! This is my Papa! So much bragging! She would even say that Burj Khalifa was made by her Papa. Don't believe anything! Like Spiderman or Superman.. All are fake stories! Ya! That's true! - She & her Papa! -And so many bogus stories! So funny! 'Bragger Sara' - Bragger Sara! Sara, can you give me a couple of bombs? Oh my God! Oh my God! A gun? Hey! Run! Bragger Sara brought a gun! Get out of my way! What did you think? That this is California, Pennsylvania or Texas? A child holding a gun? l have to report this! lf any of the kids had been shot.. What's the point in reporting to the police afterthey're killed? What do you say, Chairman Joby? What Maithreyan Sir said is right. Notjust a gun. There were six bullets as well! l don't know how Sara got hold of it. That's her grandpa's. He is an ex-military man. And he has a license. - So? Grandpa has the license; not Sara, right? Was her dad a goon in Mumbai in the past? Sara is narrating violent stories to other kids. So, let her daddy come here. He is responsible forthis, And he has to come! Let that underworld don come here! David is out of town. No! l will have to take an action! David had spoken to me about donating a good amount forthe school's new block. Oh! Did David say so? Nothing happened, right? She's a kid, right? lt's just a gun! lt wasn't even fired! Don't make it an issue! You can go. Mummy doesn't like violence. After he married Mummy, Papa stopped all his risky businesses and came here. That's when l was born. - Dude, check out the bike! Check it out! - So fast! Notjust bikes. My Papa does stunts with cars too! She has been doing this for a while now! As if there's nothing that her Papa cannot do! He is apparently more glamourous than Dulquer Salmaan! She came to scare us with her grandpa's old gun! When her Papa is called, her Mummy comes to school. He is even scared to meet the Principal. And he's supposed to be a superhero? Bose, awesome! Good one, Bose! Didn't you say that you'll bring the Black Beast? That's an off-roader, right? There was a slight issue with the workers at the site. Their arms & legs are like body-builders! Was there a fight? There was no fight; but there was a fire-brand scene! Will you narrate it to me? - Oh! Sure! l felt so ashamed in front of Maithreyan Sir. She is narrating all those fake stories that you tell her, to the kids! You're jealous, Mummy! You should buy a new Louis Vuitton jacket. Wear it when you come next time. Very nice! Who wears all that in Kerala? ls it Papa's fault if others can't pull off jackets & sunglasses? My Sara should be happy. For that, l will wearjackets, sunglasses or whatever she wants me to wear! Are you part of the land mafia? Who? Me? Those are just rumours made by jealous people! You can start a mafia if you want to! l like all that! You are the one who made her like this! You should remember that you are a girl! What's wrong if she's a girl? Continue telling her stories. You tell her some moral science stories. l can only narrate such stories. lt's true that two women can't be in the same house! What's the name of the drama? Shakespeare's 'Cymbeline'. The princess lmogen is attacked by evil forces; and herjourney to escape from them. lt is my own version. So in short, no one would understand anything, right? Gokul, your approach towards art isn't right. You people are always like this. You'll pick something from English literature and.. Make noises like these; and present it in a way that no one understands! And there are some idiots who applaud even that! Those who don't applaud are tasteless fools! Wait & watch! l'm going to do 'Kathakali' this time! As if that's very simple! Why? You don't know Kathakali? You don't know? So sad! What about others? -All are there. Mimicry, 'Koodiyattam', Mono-act and so on. l'm doing 2 items. - We'll keep it at the end. There won't be people then! lf we start with it, you won't be there! People will kill you! l have actually learned 'Koodiyattam'. So you should give me some extra time. l was a state champion! Notjust that, 'Koodiyattam' has been approved by UNESCO. But l haven't approved it. l have to go. Today, Mohanlal's film has released. James, come to my cabin with Prime file. Didn't l tell you earlier?. Today is her birthday. l had promised a dinner & movie to her. Man is a social animal. He realizes that only when he's on the platform of marriage. Nice! 'Dear Sara, 'l'm writing a letterfor the first time in my life.' 'lt's my heart that's in here' 'When l reach school, l see if you have reached, before anything else!' 'lf lravazhanjippuzha is meant for the Arabian Sea; when you confess your love, l will be able to tell you; that Sara is meant forAshwin!' 'With love, Ashwin' What is it, Mummy? What is this? Love letter! Love letter? ls it so trivial? Are we sending you to school to study or to romance? That's not my love letter. Ashwin gave it to me. Why do you accept letters from random boys? And did you tell us about it? Did you complain to the teacher? - lt's one-way! And Daddy has told me that, l can romance whoever l want to! Great! So you both are in this together? l'm not going to romance anyone. Only if l find someone like Daddy, l will romance him. - What's the matter?. Papa, it's about that love letter. Oh! That's all? Did you hear what she said? She will romance someone like you, it seems! Am l so bad or what? How come you're doing some extra make-up? There's a reason! 'Hey little chicken, come and give us a song like your cock-a-doodle-doo' 'Hey milkweed, come flying silently and give us company' 'Dressed up handsomely, drenched in a rain of smiles, come on Papa' 'Smiling with your white teeth, shaking your head, come this way' 'Hey little chicken, come and give us a song like your cock-a-doodle-doo' 'Hey milkweed, come flying silently and give us company' 'Like Cinderella, l want to fly high in the skies' 'Twinkle Twinkle little starry Sara' 'While l am waiting in excitement' 'Come, Papa' 'To fly high, come with me' 'As we flew high, the yellow dove & the gentle breeze sang along' 'Hey little chicken, come and give us a song like your cock-a-doodle-doo' 'Hey milkweed, come flying silently and give us company' 'Dressed up handsomely, drenched in a rain of smiles, come on Papa' 'Smiling with your white teeth, shaking your head, come this way' Greetings to all of you. The name of my story is, 'Napoleon' David, l'll miss it. There's an urgent board meeting. lt's okay. Nothing much is happening here. Everybody is drunk! What about Sara? lt'sjust a 5 minute drive, right? Pick her up. l'm the only sober person here. l have to be here. She has the key, right? She will wait there. The board meeting has been postponed to tomorrow. Okay. What? What happened? Dear, What happened? - Hello! Control Room. Where's Sara? Where is Sara? Dear.. Who did this to my child? David, we have to take her to the hospital! Why to the hospital? You're notjust a mother, but a doctor too! Take care of her. l want her back! We have to take her to the hospital, David! No, Michelle. We shouldn't! l don't want herto be celebrated as a victim by the media & public. No one has to light a candle for her. How would my child face her friends and relatives? Take care of my child! Take care of her! Do what l say! There are monsters all around who want to see disasters happening to others. She is raped brutally! We have to take her to the hospital immediately! My child has been torn apart! l know! l know, David! Trust me! l will take care of her. We have to take her, David! l'm her mother, David! lt must be that Narayanan, the Security guard. What? What? What's the matter?. A robbery happened in the flat right above yours. Anything here? - No! Nothing is missing from here. Sir, cigarettes for you. Until you sent Narayanan to buy cigarettes, the CCTV camera was connected. Now, there's no connection & even the hard disk is missing! David Sir, l forgot to tell you. lt was Johnny Sir's apartment which was robbed. You sent me to buy cigarettes, right? Until then, there wasn't any problem! The camera connection is just forthe sake of it. Nothing gets recorded. lt has been faulty for the past 3 months. You can leave now. l'll come there. You can also leave, Sir. What? Mr.David, you don't look like someone who smokes. Since the construction isn't complete, only 3 floors are occupied. Downstairs, there's an advocate & family. They are on tour for the past 2 weeks, Sir. Then, that builder and wife. His wife is a doctor, Sir. They reach only around 6-7 PM. Police! Police? You are from the Police? He is such a freak! Even freaks can become policemen. For that, the Government has created a CBClD set-up. Are you showing off, breaking into a boys' hostel at midnight? What kind of a policeman are you? That's what l'm saying. From the past few years in our state, minor children are being subjected to rape, and murdered. To ensure that POCSO act is enforced severely, An undercover movement. l am a part of it. - What do you want now? But there are no cases charged or arrests made for that. But, watching child porn is.. Not just illegal, it's a mental disorder as well. We track people who watch it regularly, and give them counselling. Such people, if not advised properly, can cause trouble for our department in future. So you want to catch the one who watches child porn regularly amongst us, right? Just to advise him. Not going to happen, Sir! There a three vans full of policemen, outside. There are 150 boys in this hostel. Just a whistle; and even we can't guarantee in what condition you'll be going back. l haven't spoken even to my mom so decently, you @#@$!$!! Mummy is here. Move away! Who is it? lt's me, Jose. Sathyettan! Dude, your lady officer is quite a chick. Was she appointed without any training? She hasn't withered at all! - What? Even with the scorching hot sun, nothing has withered. And, how is your new boss? He is an expert at expletives! His tongue is filthy, and fists are deadly! Who is this Arnold? This is my new boss. l'll be right back. - l'm coming, too. Just because you're undercover, you think you can do anything you want? A dead body is a good omen! When did you come? Within half an hour after the crime was reported. Didn't you have breakfast? - Yes, Sir. Doesn't look like it. Be a little more energetic! Has any missing case been reported in the past 2 days? No Sir. Who said so? l'm telling you that a case was reported. As far as l know.. - l didn't ask what you know. l asked you whether any case was reported or not! Why are you confirming things that you don't know? She is quite fair & plump. Must be from a rich family. Sure! There will be a case. Madam, just a minute. Get lost. What is this, man? Was raped, right? What? Well, that girl.. She was raped, right? This is the 5th or 6th one, madam! Did you find any lead? Go! - You screwed it all up! Get me the memory card of his camera. No need, madam! He is a douche-bag! Even though he works for a national daily, he is a yellow journalist at heart! His main job is writing soft porn for a fortnightly. We don't have to mess with him. Samuel Sir was investigating these cases. And now he's a gone case, right? His car was deliberately hit by another vehicle and pushed down. He was drunk, right? Well.. lf you drink & drive, such things can happen! According to circumstantial evidences, it's an executed one! What circumstance? He is a dangerous psychopath. Only children under 15 years.. He is a killer who rapes & murders them! l know! What else? Notjust that, he used to call Samuel Sir on his phone. He used to behave & talk like a sadist trying to torture a gentleman police officer like Samuel Sir, who had a great track record. And that man wanted to defeat Samuel Sirtoo! During the last phone call, he had really provoked Samuel Sir. Samuel Sir must have identified that killer. But what to do! He drank & drove and dropped dead! l have some assumptions about the latest murder. Okay. Tell me. The murder didn't happen at that place. So he would've used a vehicle to take the body there, right? lf we are able to find that vehicle, we can nab the killer easily! These days, when there are CCTV cameras at every street, it's not such a difficult task! Very good! Sit down. l examined all the CCTV cameras of that part of the city. Around 1518 vehicles could've carried the body. From an auto-rickshaw to a lorry! - Which one among them? That.. l don't know that, Sir. We have to find out. Are you really an idiot, orjust acting like one? No, Sir. l'm not acting, Sir. Definitely not! l said all these with a perfect understanding of the situation. You didn't wish me. 'Somewhere' 'Shattered' 'Was the dreamy laughter of my little child' 'Kindling flames in yourfather's heart' 'Away' 'Far away' 'As a twilight of pain disappears' Salma reaches the apartment around 4 PM daily. Both of us are working. We reach home only around 6 or 7 PM. We thought that she would be here. But she didn't board the school bus that day. She went missing just before boarding the bus. Did she have any unwanted friendship, or phone conversations? Nothing that we know of. lf she went missing before she boarded the school bus, the bus driver should inform you, right? From 4 PM, they had been calling us. We couldn't attend the calls. Great! lf you find something unusual, You know how much Papa & Mummy love you, right? We have only you in this world. Didn't l tell you that you shouldn't be like this? Nothing happened to you, my dear. We want you to get back to your old self. Your Papa will always be with you hereafter, Sara. Who was it? That day.. Over there.. Who was it? 'O' dreamy cloud, waving your hands and moving forward' 'Why are you hiding far away?' 'O' tender breeze, waving your hands and moving forward' 'Won't you come back ever again?' lf you are always depressed, how will your Papa & Mummy feel? Look. Your Mummy is one of the best doctors here. Since she thinks that you're unwell, she is not even paying attention to her work. Do you understand what l'm saying? You are a smart girl! We see so many dreams, right? But after some time, don't we forget them? Like that, you should forget this too. And, make your Papa & Mummy happy! Have you thought about your Papa? You can see his love for you, right? l know, that Papa & Mummy are really sad. Papa is my best friend. l love both of them so much! l am scared! Scared of everyone! He hurt me a lot! l tried to run away! He covered my mouth. And hurt me a lot. He tore my uniform apart. He broke my rosary. l got really scared. Papa tells me that nothing has happened to me. l am still scared. When Papa isn't around, if it happens again.. Papa & Mummy have to go for work, right? l saw Papa crying. He is crying because l am not feeling well. No Aunty! l won't cry hereafter. l won't make Papa & Mummy cry. Papa should be with me. Always! Or else, at least until my fear is gone. lf something happens to me, Papa says that a superhero would come & save me. But nobody came to save me. Neither Papa nor Jesus. Jesus will punish the man who hurt me. l'm sure! We have to take a decision on the Mountain Valley project immediately. Ravi, l'm not in a mood right now. Shall we talk later? l never imagined that this world would be like this. l used to read & hear about incidents happening around me. But when l was away for a moment, my child... l have never hurt her even by holding her hand tight so far. l just want my child's face to be pleasant. l just want her to forget it! Everything will be all right. l just want my child to smile! We are living and earning for that, right? All of us! When her face turns dull, our hearts ache! My wife gets all worked up if the school bus is late. She cries when l'm not looking. She would be scared that l may be crushed. No, Susan. l'm all right. ln this world, no God came to the rescue of my child. l cannot be with her all the time, right? She escaped because of sheer luck. That b@$@$d could've killed her. She was in a lot of pain. 'Your silences burn like lava' 'Will you hum like a bird in my ears?' 'With a shower of tears, l will turn you into a glowing moon-fly again' 'l will come running to you whenever you think of me' 'l will always keep guarding you, my dear' 'Do not hesitate' 'Do not fear' 'Smile, my baby' 'Somewhere' 'Shattered' He was a Joker. He said that he will kill 3 children this month, in his last call to Samuel, right? One is fine. There are 2 more chances. Just because Sam is dead, will he back out from achieving his target? Or has he already killed 2 of them somewhere? lf he has done it, he will let us know. We shall wait, right? There are many more days in this month. Anyway, he is a good poet. He kills each one of them by singing a song. He would be.. You don't have to go looking for him. lf you are talented, he will come looking for you. Did you get the report on those gloves? - No Sir. l haven't received any update from forensics, Sir. All the files related to the case history should be on my table, now! Whichever department it may be from! He has talked overthe phone with Sir around 15 times. The investigations focusing on the lDs used to get the sim cards, reached people who have nothing to do with the case. The first couple of murders happened in ldukki district. And the third one was in Ernakulam. Samuel Sir was the one who realized the presence of a serial killer behind this. The DNA reports are not consistent. Body hair, bite marks; all are different at different places. Unlike other serial killers, he doesn't follow a particular modus operandi in his murders. The murders are committed by injecting drugs or suffocating them. Some children were tortured for days! That means, he must have a hide-out. And someone who is hiding, would definitely be a psuedo-gentleman. He ties a band around their mouths, and fits nose-caps on their noses, and displays their bodies like clowns! What is this? What is all this? lt was God who saved our child's life, Michelle! Notjust her.. Did you see all these? 'Sexual violence against children. 945 cases in 6 months' 'Student molested. Security guard arrested' 'Tied up & raped. Search is on for 3 accused' When we are not around, it shouldn't happen again.. No one should.. l'm not able to face my daughter. lt's easy to live for our wishes. But to live for our children's wishes, is a blessing! She is not saying anything now, Michelle. She is not telling me any of her wishes. Who did this to our daughter? l have to find out. Whoever it is, l will find him! Kill him! lf cancer spreads, it should be burnt or severed. Even if it's inside a body, or in the society! Kill him! Hi David! How come you're late today, Johnny? l went to the police station. They said they're still investigating. But they haven't found anything. The thief entered our house when that fraud security guard Narayanan stepped out. Someone who knows that my dad & mom are alone there, has done this! Where were you then? l came here only after knowing about it. When l reached here, mom's gold chain and Rs.25,000 were missing. Only that much was there in that apartment. Your sister's children don't come here now? Why are you questioning me like a policeman? Those guys are in Bangalore! Annie says that they have become better. lt's been long since they came here. Well, why do you seem like you have a doubt? Where were you when it happened? There you go again! From the way you're asking, it seems like l robbed my own apartment. l will tell you where l was on that day, when it is the right time. Okay? l said what l know. For 10 minutes, l stepped out to have tea. But Sir, was something stolen from here? l don't want to know what you told the police. For quite some time now, you bosses have some grudge against security guards! l don't have the medicine forthat, Sir. Prakash is my brother-in-law, Sir. He came to visit this place one day. When he heard that the camera wasn't working here, he planned it. Don't hit me again, Sir. lt's my elder daughter's wedding in February. l made a mistake! l got Rs.25,000 and that grandma's gold chain. l will return all of it, Sir. While l was running out of Johnny Sir's apartment with whatever l got, l saw a man with a mask. Ajoker's mask. He was doing something in the lift. He looked at me suddenly. When l saw him looking at me, l ran away from there! That's all l know, Sir. Nothing else. Oh my God! Ooh! So muscular! Sir, these are the accused and ex-convicts in child molestation cases in this city. First one is Franco. He was a tuition teacher. He served time in jail for molesting 3 children who were in his class. He is in town now. l tried to reform myself. But when l think about it, l don't feel any of that was wrong. Even otherwise, can we humans decide what's right or wrong? lt's not because my parents didn't raise me well. l was a topper in studies. Even in teaching. What do you do now? The tuition centre is shut! What you're talking about; l haven't done it. But.. l'm getting what l want in plenty! So you haven't reformed! l was always okay, Sir. And ya, the problem is with your point of view. lt was said that l had unnatural sex and l was jailed for 2 years! l have a special interest towards children. Dogs, humans and wolves were formed from the same atom. So there is nothing unnatural in this, Sir. l have learnt a lot about this. Pedophiles get attracted to the skin texture of children, and their smell. l don't feel anything like that. Just some pleasure for myself. That's all! Well, what are you guys going to do to me? That bloody Paulo! Pervert! Sir, people are scared to send their kids to school! He gets drunk and pops out of nowhere. Notjust children, women here can't even dry their undergarments outside. lf he sees it, he will take it with him. Women are afraid to step outside. Such a pervert! lf you take him, make sure that he never comes back. Don't let him know what l said about him. lf you tell him, he might try to come on to me at midnight. Didn't you check that whole area? Yes Sir. We couldn't find him. Don't stutter when Sir asks you. Thanks. He will be there! At Solomon's house. Solomon's wife is his mistress now. Go ahead, Sir! Go & show the power of police. He is not here, Sir. We searched every nook & corner. l think he's absconding. l just saw him overthere. l don't know if it's because three of us come together; we always screw up! Who's that eagle who snatched him? Who is driving a car like this through this slum? lt won't be erect hereafter! That's how you have kicked him! lt was a little too cruel. What's so cruel? He deserves much more! He'll say that he fell down somewhere. Right? Look! ls this a season for this or what? They're also saying that they fell down. Someone with precise knowledge about nerves and muscles has thulped them. Just like you did. Sir, these are the second & third guys we were looking for. So someone is on the job, much ahead of us! Look at his attire! Who does he think he is? James Bond? How do these guys even wear such clothes when it's so hot outside? AC, man, AC! Car has AC, home has AC, office has AC. These guys never feel the heat! ls Anto here? What's the matter? l want to take Anto with me, and ask him some questions. Anto, someone has come here to take you with him. What's the matter, Sir? ls it to beat up someone or get beaten up? Anto, let's talk privately. Can you come with me? l want certain details about someone. Someone with a criminal background. l want to know if there is such a person in your gang or any other gang that you know. l'll tell you the rest later. So that's the matter! You've approached a criminal to find another criminal? A police method. This Anto will not betray his kind! Even if the police asks me, l don't say anything. That's because policemen don't ask the way l would ask you! Just because of your attire, l will call you 'Sir' forthe last time. Get into your car, Sir. Clear off! Do you know how to drive, Anto? Stop! Stop the car! You don't know me! Did you think that you will mess with me and get away? There are 24 cases in my name, and they're not for stealing bananas! You don't know me well enough! Masks & disguises, and people who get turned on when they see children, are not part of our gang. There was an Aziz in Kacheripady. A sicko who lifts his clothes to show his private parts to schoolkids. He got convicted in some rape case, and has been in jail for a year now. This is the first time, that someone has thulped me so badly. l won't forget it , Sir. May your memory protect you. My fists can bring good fortune! You'll get used to this! You better find out; How this Anto is, and how l operate; everyone knows it! But even l don't know how l am right now! l have heard that girls tend to be more fond of their father. My child was scared of me. She never told me what she wanted. Only after we lost her, my wife told me; that my daughter wanted to tell me about so many things! Now, Do you suspect anyone? Why are you asking such questions? What do you have to do with all this? Didn't l tell you? l'm a writer as well. l want to do a feature on these children who're confined only to newspapers. 'The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything'; l have read this somewhere. What are you trying to say? Wazim, Aren't you a builder? Who is he? What is he asking? Why are you telling him everything? Let me send him out. This city's sunrise and sunset happens on David's land. The CCTV's hard disk went missing when he sent the guard outside to buy cigarettes. And he doesn't smoke! Until you sent Narayanan to buy cigarettes, the CCTV camera was connected. Now there's no connection, and no hard disk as well! He behaved very rudely to me when l went to his apartment. What? He had called the control room on that day. He must've tried to report something related to the robbery; and then he must have changed his mind for some reason. And ya, l had seen him in the DCP's office recently. There? - He was at the writer's cabin. Why did he come? He has collected details about POCSO cases & the murder of Samuel Sir, using the right to information act. He has a beautiful daughter, right? Who is it? Andrews. From the police. CBClD. What's on your face, Narayanan? l fell down, Sir. Looks like someone punched you! What actually happened? l'm asking you! l am Andrews. From the police! l was just asking some questions to Sara. Go to your room. Sara will not go anywhere! She will sit there! You should leave from here! Did you see him, Sara? Listen, if you don't tell me, l will have to take you to the station. Dad! Sara will leave only after answering my question. What is this? Andrews Eapen. Crime Branch. Go inside. Come. Come, dear. How dare you barge into our house & do such nonsense? See Mister.. - Colonel Ninan Francis. l have to interrogate Sara. Ask your son to come to my office with her, tomorrow morning. lf you're good to me, l'll also be good to you. lt was okay if you came tomorrow. l'm used to being early. lf you could've reached early everywhere, certain unfortunates things wouldn't have happened. She hasn't come. She won't come. There's a law and the police here. My daughter has herfather. The tea is really hot. But after some time, it will go cold. Don'tjudge me by my looks. l'm a cop! A cop, indeed. Who gave you the license to attack all the perverts in town? Or, do you think that you're the King David from the old testament, who saved the people from the attacks of bears & lions? Even if it's a bear or a lion; the nature has its own law. And there are many animals who've taken the form of humans without understanding that. To enforce the law here, to enforce justice here, if this David has to assume a king's role, considerthat l am entitled to it. You can call me, King David! She is the only child who survived this series of killings. lf we have to go forward, we have to get her statement. l won't give you a court order. You want to interrogate a child who is in shock & create more problems? The law provides a protective Armour to children. Probably, more than what's given to legislative members. Don't ask me to join you on your ego trip! lf you do that, l'll get you out of yourjob, Andrews! l just thought that if it happens in a straight way, let it happen! l know how to reach the kid without losing my job. So Sir, my salute to you! l'm from the maintenance section. l thought you left, Sir. Everyone else has left. The routes you're taking to find me, are thrilling me! What's your name? We are here to help you. The sorrows, troubles and secrets which you can't even tell your parents; you can say all that to us. You can say anything to us, openly! Has anyone misbehaved with you, Sara? You don't have to fear anyone. Whatever it is, tell us openly. The government has appointed us forthe protection of children. Didn't you understand what l asked you? Look at me! Don't worry! Tell me. When there was no one at home, did someone.. l mean.. did someone touch or hold your private parts? Don't cry unnecessarily! Nothing happened to me. What did he do to you? Nothing happened to me. Your dad must have taught you to say all this, right? You have reached the age where you can understand all that. Tell me! What did he do to you? What all did he do? - Stop this nonsense! What's going on? This is counselling. l won't allow anyone to trouble my students! lf l see you even near the shadow of my child, l will slice you into pieces. Chechi! (Sister) Ya! l'm bringing it. These are the CCTV visuals of that night, from 12 AM to 2 AM. Pause it. That sticker on that vehicle. Zoom in on that. lt can't be zoomed, Sir. And l have cut this portion into a separate clip. Another Sir came earlier & took it from me. l still have a copy of that on the system. You can take it and try it in some other software, if you want to. When did that Sir come? That was really early. That's true. That Sir is never late. Look, it's him! l want to meet Dr.Susan. She is on the first floor. Under the 'Protection of Children from Sexual Offense act; what you're doing is a crime that can send you to jail without bail for 5 years. Are you threatening me? lf you think so! You're avoiding the justice that a child deserves. A bigger cruelty than what she lost. What did she lose? All of you have this assumption, that a woman is a being with something precious to lose between her belly & thighs. lf something happens to a woman, you don't even consider her as a human. Sympathy, disdain, denial. And a farce called investigation. Everything is celebrated! So you're not willing to co-operate? Definitely not! Loss, it seems! lf your interrogation is over, please leave. l have work to do. 'Foreign Liquor Store' Move! What are you doing? What? - We're also here to buy this stuff. Go stand at the back! - No! How is that fair? Go back! Get lost! lf you have a problem, file a case! You're trying to show off? No! l'm planning to show much more! What will you do? Hey fatso! You don't know me! Get out of here! Get lost! This isn't fair, Sir. Didn't l ask you to file a case? You're lucky that l don't have my tools with me. What? After the bars shut down, these noblemen have shifted here. Losers! Notjust losers. They're.. - They won't stand in the queue. 'Even l don't know how l am right now' That has many meanings. That's his name. He is beating up all the perverts in town. That's how you also got beaten, Anto Chettan. He is on a rampage, in a black car. When he is with his daughter in a white car, he is normal. His daughter is coming. Should we do this in front of school-kids? Anto Chettan, he got down. Chikku, Shoby, get down! Show him who Anto is! Come fast! - Hurry up! Get the knife! Don't push. Get down fast! - Dude, he has a gun! - A gun! He has a gun even when he's in the white car! Let's escape! Our people have seen guns only in Amal Neerad's films, right? Leave it, Anto. Let's go! He has a gun even now? Hey! Ask your mom to make some tea for me. Which loser is this? Your prey! The prey who's a hunter! l knew you'd call me, you @@$@$! Then tell me, Andrews. Why have l called you? Hold on. Where's my tea? Ya! Tell me, dear. You tell me. You're going to kill another child. You want to inform that to me, and tease me as well. Get lost, man! Why should l listen to you? l heard all the nonsense you spoke to Sam. Where are the targets of your challenge? Hang up, you loser! After he called you, he changed the sim card & made 2 more calls. Even though he changed the sim, he used the same mobile set. He made those 2 calls from the same lMEl number. One was to that builder, David. When we tracked the lMEl, those three calls had three different numbers. But the handset was the same. His first mistake. The third call was to this guy - Sathyanath. Why should the killer call him? Now, there's a market for child abuse. He needs that. And the killer, wants some publicity as well! Police, right? l know. Why is he calling you, Sathyanath? Who? When? lf you want me to say it officially with latitude & longitude, 7 days back, on Monday. ln front of your regular liquor store. The call that came at 3.05 PM sharp! Whose was it? You're quite good, man! You found it out! But l'm not going to tell you! Consider it as the arrogance of ajournalist. And, with your over-confidence of being an undercover cop, and these solid muscles, if you're trying to scare this Sathyanathan, l'll try to be scared when l step out to take a leak in the night. So carry on, Sir. Got it, you kiddo? Don't play in the swamp, you will be soiled! Assign the surveillance of this place to someone. He has to be beaten up in the dark without using the department's name. You nutcase, what do you want? Tell me! Mine isn't any ordinary daily that prints 1000-2000 copies. Tell me, you scoundrel! What do you want? Why have you tied me up? No questions. Just tell me. You've been going on for a while now! You rascal, l will destroy yourfamily! l'm warning you! Untie me! You will face the consequences, l'm telling you! You will cry, man! You will cry for your dear ones! lf not, l'll make you cry! l'm not bluffing! As long as l can hold a pen in my hand, with my 'S's and 'F's, l will finish your family! Then you'll know who l am! You're messing with.. Oh God! Oh my God! What is this? What are you doing? Are you going to kill me? Oh my God! l wasn't serious! l was bluffing! Don't hurt me! Oh God! Let me go. Untie me! No! l'll tell you. - l'll tell you. - Then tell me. l swear! l don't know who he is! He called me to say that l should write about him. He doesn't give any detail that can help me identify him. He told me that l should write about him, and that the police are hiding everything. He wants everyone to talk about him. Everyone should be scared of him. Those were his needs. lnitially, l didn't believe any of it. But one day, he gave me the details of his next murder in advance. l believed him, only after it happened. Since it was beneficial for me as well, l followed it up. He called me and gave me information. That's how l got the details of your daughter. He was ashamed of the fact that your child survived. So, He said that he will kill her. To know who he is, l followed the child. l knew that he would come looking for the kid some day orthe other. But, one day the police came here, tracking his call. Why does he call you, Sathyanath? Since there were chances of being caught after that, l told him not to talk to me over the phone. One day, lt was a pen drive. His voice was recorded in that. He had recorded the facts that were necessary for my story. There were details of his rapes & murders in it. But there was nothing in it which could identify him. He wants to be presented to the society as an anti-hero. That was his demand. Why you? Why did he choose you? He said, that he wanted the filthiest journalist. That pen drive is over there. Don't hurt me! l told you everything! Please! Oh God! Untie me! Whatever l said is true! The market is for rape news now. Especially, that of children. That.. That's why l... Oh God! Don't do anything to me! You shouldn't write, ever again! You shouldn't even think about writing. Oh God! No! No! Don't do it! - Don't go! Sir, David just left from here. l heard some noise from upstairs, as well. And ya, unlike what l said, he smokes stylishly! What the hell were you looking at? Go see if he's alive! What? What happened? A small bomb exploded! Take me to the hospital quickly! David! l come home early these days. l thought l'll be a little more responsible about my parents. ls it a pen drive? lt's an antique piece! You would've used it a lot, right? Why don't you throw away such old stuff?. 4 GB. lt can't even store 2 films! Buy a new hard disk! l'll throw this away. lf you don't give it back, l'll kill you! Give it. lt was when that fraud guard Narayanan went out, that our apartment was robbed. Prakash is my brother-in-law, Sir. While l was running out of Johnny Sir's flat with whatever l got, l saw a man with a mask. Ajoker's mask. Ajoker's mask! He wants to be presented before the society as an anti-hero. That was his demand. William is in the US. Who took this connection in his name? Even the police told me that prank calls were being made from this number. Have you given any identity cards or photos to anyone recently? Didn't l tell you already? No! This? That's a new apartment that William is going to buy. From Venture Builders in Kochi. l had given some documents to them. For the purpose of loans and otherformalities. This is to inform you that you have been terminated from this firm. For negligence and misuse of company properties. Henceforth, the management has decided to terminate you with immediate effect. You are requested to return all the company assets in your possession. Before leaving. A few days back, someone who introduced himself as a joker, spoke to me on the phone. When l investigated in the curiosity to find out who he is, William Chacko. He is a client of our Green Cliff Villa Project. When l checked his file, many documents that he had submitted to the company are missing. The number that called me was bought using those documents. Upon further investigation, l found that many of our clients' documents are missing. Those documents might be talking to many people right now. Since you are the ones who had handled those files, l have summoned you here. lf that's the case, it needs to be considered seriously. The facilities of our office are being misused. We have to find him, whoever it is. We have to find him! We must find him! l am scrutinizing everything and everyone now. These gloves are the kind which are used by workers in construction sites. There were particles of cement and sand on this. The sticker on the vehicle which was captured by the jewellery's CCTV, is a logo. The logo of that builder David's Venture Builders. So, both of us are looking for someone who's right here. Poor you! Someone who's working for you did this to your child.. Now you can take rest. Within some time, we will catch him. l told you. l won't let you get to him first. After l take him into custody, l'll come with him; to meet your dear daughter. To get her statement. l want to see how you're going to protect her then. Get out! l told you decently, lf you're good to me, l'll be good to you. You & your parallel investigation! Even after you tortured my child so much, do you know why l'm neglecting you? lf l start taking you into consideration, it means that it's the end of your life! He is here. lt's him, Sir. We got this from his bag. Photos of school kids, and the gloves of the killer. Tell me! What's that in your hand? An uncle gave this to me. Near the gate. Stop! This table is all dusty. She was drawing something over here. This is the dust from the eraser. Let me see yourface, please. l have seen many serials. But l'm seeing a serial killer for the first time! You haven't let him go yet? Without even using a feather, l made him admit to everything, Sir. Send him away! You & your feather! The body we found from David's office lift, is that of 12 year old Jancy Joseph who went missing from Thrisshur a week back. According to reports, another child is still in his custody. The peon from David's office gave me a package to give you. lf you're smart enough, let it be of use to you. lt belongs to you as well. What's going to be enforced, is not the law of the country or of God, it is a father's law! Some girl is tied on to a chair. A digital photo is also a file. lt precisely records when and where it was clicked. On handsets that have camera GPS, the latitude & longitude of the place where it was clicked are also recorded. So we can find the place where a photo was clicked, very easily. Oh! You took so much time, even though it was so easy? Jose! Sam, who was investigating the murders in the city; was murdered at the high range. Sam had identified his hiding place. David is also taking the route Sam took. Shahul, a friend of mine; David Ninan, he is coming to your circle. Until l cross him, he shouldn't go up the hill. That's because.. Hey David! l heard you're doing the Police's job now? That's not needed! lt's not like earlier, there are young boys in the police. So, you better go back to your family! And don't try to run into the trap of that murderous psycho! We'll take care of him! 'Notjust bikes. My Papa does stunts with cars too!' Start the cars! Block him! Seeing him go, l don't think we can catch up with him, Sir. You have failed! You were my best opponent! lt is during his last moments, that a man proves whether he is brave or cowardly! Forthat, this is better! David, don't you want to know who l am? No, David! l want to win! l must win! When you're narrating your bravado before me, you have failed! That cancer you told me about, l destroyed it yesterday. Someone dear to us didn't reach home yesterday. Who was it? Only one amongst us had the ability to transform into another person. l don't want to see you, James! l don't want to see you! You will know who it is, gradually. But.. People like him don't have a face or a form. Wearing masks of caring and protection for the family and society, they would still be around us. We should always have a watchful eye over our children. Only if you are sure about winning, come to my house with handcuffs. You're the one who should win. Nothing has happened to our child or us. Even l came here making up my mind to finish him. Or else, he'll bloat up in jail, and smile at us! When she is matured enough, let her decide. Whether she wants to tell the world what happened, or not. Even in my house, there is a girl child like all of them. 'Like shining stars in the sky' 'A golden star which glows on the earth' 'Today, my world is beside you' 'You are my own, my very own' 'You are like my shadow' 'With your undying love' 'You are my shade always' 'You are my life' |
