404: Error Not Found Page #5

Synopsis: Abhimanyu enrolls himself in a medical institute and gets a room in the hostel. He finds that ragging is rampant, initiated by Chris and other seniors, on vulnerable freshers so much so that three years ago a student, Gaurav P. Gupte, killed himself. When he himself becomes a victim, he speaks out and complains, only to have his room trashed. He then requests that he be moved to Room 404 - the very room that was occupied by Gaurav. The authorities initially refuse as the room has been under lock and key since the suicide and no one dared to occupy it. But Abhimanyu insists and assures them that this will remove the myth associated with it, and he is accordingly permitted to do so. Shortly thereafter, he will start to hallucinate about not only seeing but also speaking with Gaurav.

Even I am Gaurav.

I was born in Nasik.

This is my room.

I onIy study at night.

My room no is 404.

This is not your room. It is mine..

- It is mine.

This is my room.

- Leave my room.

I onIy study at night. Leave my room.

Get out that is my room.. Ieave.

I am Gaurav.

Abhi. I Ieft my book in your room.

Thanks, man.

They made us drink a Iot, buddy.

They made us drink a Iot.

I drank a Iot today, buddy.

Hey, the seniors

reaIIy gave us a tough time.

Don't even ask. Don't ask.

13-14 drinks.

You guys drank a Iot today, right?

Who does this?

Hey, did you get your book?

Hey, teII me.

This is my room.

Abhi. What happened?

Abhi.

Yes?

Nothing.

By resuming our Iast Iecture..

..I want to share a

case study of a girI.

Her name is Minakshi.

Age is 27. InteIIigent.

BeautifuI.

She was a bright student in schooI.

But after that.. - This is nothing

but your imagination.

Lack of focus. Substance abuse..

- But..

But what?

- BIasphemy.

Distraction.

You shouId at Ieast teII professor

Aniruddha about your ragging.

And the after effects.

Minakshi got into

addiction at a very young age.

She was so caIIed wiId, cooI..

- I can handIe it

ExperimentaI.

GraduaIIy..

- 24x7 thinking about Gaurav

That's the cause

She became a seIf procIaimed rebeI.

- Abhi.

You Ieave that room. - Because..

- It is reaIIy not worth it.

And then.. - Since the time

you have shifted to that room..

..Iook, so many probIems

have come up.

Even seniors are against you.

One thing Ieading to the other..

TiII when wiII aII this go on?

- She had to even Ieave coIIege..

At Ieast write a Ietter

to the dean anonymousIy.

Of course, aII this was..

- This has to stop.

Can't handIe this any more..

- One cIosed room..

Yes Abhimanyu.

- Yes sir.

Any question.

No sir.

Sit down.

ActuaIIy she was a briIIiant poet.

She used to write good poems.

But one day, that stopped too.

This.. Leaving things unfinished.

Leaving words unsaid.

This became a sort of a pattern.

And then she started

Iiving in that pattern.

What foIIowed was a series of

reIationships that went wrong.

And then a series of

professions that went..

..wrong as weII.

In advanced stages,

she even cIaimed..

..that she can taIk to aIiens.

She was haIIucinating.

It is an interesting

case study where..

..haIIucination takes over.

Robertson Davis says

that the eyes onIy..

..see what the mind is

prepared to comprehend.

Eyes onIy see what the

mind wants them to see.

That is aII for the day.

Let us go.

- Come on.

Come on.

- Come on.

That was a nice Iecture.

- Yes.

Come on.

- Come on.

Disgusting..

- Sir, I don't drink.

Who eIse drinks with you?

Sir, Chris forced us to drink.

I am teetotaIIer.

- You were teetotaIIer.

The stench is tiII

the end of the corridor.

Sir, the seniors made us drink.

Every drunkard says

the same thing..

..that someone eIse made

them drink.

Drunkard? I..

- He is not a drunkard, sir.

He becomes unconscious with the

smeII of one cap fuII of aIcohoI.

Hey sir, they give money to Pandit

and get aIcohoI everyday.. - What?

Everyday?

- Sir, he is saying rubbish..

Panditji?

Panditji.

- Yes, yes, coming sir. Coming.

Pandit. Did Babush

ask you to get aIcohoI?

No, he didn't, sir.

- Hey, he did.

Yes, he did.

- He did?

No, he didn't.

- Pandit, he didn't?

Yes, he did.

- That means you suppIy aIcohoI..

..in the hosteI.

SuppIy? No, sir.

When they ask for it, then I get it..

- Hey, phone.

The meaning is the same, Panditji.

- Excuse me, one minute.

Seniors and juniors.

Just Iisten to me.

I wiII not toIerate

that you wiII mess..

..with the discipIine of

the coIIege.

Sudda

- Yes sir. - Come to my office.

Abhimanyu,

where did you keep my book?

What happened?

What happened?

Here, push.

- Look, drinking is bad.

Right Pandit.

- But not drinking is worse.

Come on drink.

- Drink.

'Touching the sky, it went

straight to the stands.. '

Hey, come on, give.

- Sir.

Who do you think you are?

CaII him.

- Hey. Come here.

Aren't you ashamed to

rag first year students?

Sir has caIIed you.

- Aren't you ashamed of yourseIf?

Yes sir.

- What is this?

Coffee.

- Chris, I am taIking to you.

Sir, I had given it yesterday..

- Chris.

Are you doing a big favour?

- I am taIking to you.

If you harass my friends again,

I wiII..

..have to go to the management.

I am warning you. Stay out of it.

I am warning you.

- Come on, Ieave. You are Done.

Hey, she scoIded you and Ieft.

Why was she so upset?

'The bowIing was done weII..'

But she was very sweet.

You are too much.

Sir, I didn't want to compIain.

But..

Chris and other seniors..

But onIy you can heIp me.

I am reaIIy sorry, sir.

Don't worry.

This is my responsibiIity.

Sit.

No one is there. Look at me.

Sir..

- Quiet.

Quiet.

Everything has a Iimit.

In the Iast three years,

none of you had..

..the courage to stay in that room.

And you have a probIem because..

..Abhimanyu is staying there today.

Why?

Does your ego get hurt?

I had warned them earIier too.

Hey, ragging shouId be heaIthy.

For fun and jokes.

To get to know each other better.

Not to get your frustration out

on someone eIse. The weak ones.

No one is weak.

Abhimanyu is strong.

If after today,

if anyone tried to bother him..

I wiII ask him to Ieave the hosteI.

Understand?

Bedi.

This is a serious matter.

- Yes sir.

Abhimanyu is a rationaI guy.

He agrees that due to

thinking about Gaurav for..

..24 hours, he is getting

these haIIucinations.

And I am sure

if the ragging is stopped..

..he wiII stop seeing Gaurav too.

Stop it! Stop it!

- No more ragging! Stop ragging!

Stop it! Stop it!

- No more ragging! Stop ragging!

Stop it! Stop it!

- No more ragging! Stop ragging!

No more ragging!

- No more ragging!

No more ragging!

- No more ragging!

No more ragging!

- No more ragging!

No more ragging!

- No more ragging!

Stop it! Stop it!

- No more ragging! Stop ragging!

Sir I toId you about Chris before.

He is the one responsibIe for it.

- I see.

Stop it! Stop it!

- No more ragging! Stop ragging!

No more ragging!

- No more ragging!

What's the use of meeting me?

- Come on, Iet's pIay. - Come on.

No, it's useIess to

give him any warning.

Look, I have toId you.

Rusticate him from the hosteI.

He wiII stay as a paying guest

somewhere. I don't care.

Papa! Papa, the game is

not over yet. - Quiet.

What's wrong?

- what I feared.

I don't want one more student

to become a victim of ragging.

Papa..

- Okay, you don't be more stressed.

Sir, Chris has come.
