A colleague, from Moscow.

Woman?

Oh you're so jealous!

Look at me. So jealous!

What do you think?

Your last words of the

conversation meant..

'Darling, I will be back soon.'

Your Russian is so bad.

Shall we just go in,

please? Come on.

You are hiding

something from me, Nik.

No!

Sure?

No.

When I say I go to Kanyakumari..

I don't go to Kanyakumari.

I go to Koodankulam, instead.

Koodankulam?

Yes, Koodankulam.

Koodankulam Nuclear Power project.

Honey, we're helping

your government to..

set up the light water

reactor technology in India.

Excuse me?

What's that supposed to mean?

It means your country, is going to

become one of the self sufficient..

nuclear states.

Nik.

You are a spy?

Come on!

No.

No!

I am your friend.

And..

my love for you is eternal.

A kilo of this, please.

I'm just not ready

for another marriage.

Why not?

Marriage is the worst

thing that happened to mankind.

And in any case..

I want to remain in love, you know.

Me too.

But you know I..

I can't stay for long with you.

Unless I marry you.

Why? Marriage why?

Because..

I'm pregnant..

.. with your child.

A shocking incident..

India had finally

accomplished its nuclear test.

And instead of Hiroshima,

it was now, my heart!

Saheb dropped two bombs.

First.. to get married!

The other, to send me to Russia.

It was my fault.

I should've kept mum.

I made a trip to Moscow to

attend a college seminar.

And what I saw there..

blew my mind.

Nikolai Vronsky, in fact had..

two Anna's.

One in India and

the other in Moscow.

I still blame myself for his death.

I shouldn't have

sent her those pictures.

Hi guys!

So great to be back.

Where's Anna?

She's at the market.

- But why? - For

her new wedding gown.

Goonga! Greatjob.

Lovely!

Feels so good.

The late Major..

her first husband.

Very brave, sir!

He was eaten by a panther,

wasn't he?

Shut up Goonga!

What did he say?

He says we pushed the Major down..

and then the panther ate him.

Don't believe him, sir.

He is a big liar.

Husband number two, Jimmy.

Very good song, sir!

Goonga, shut the hell up.

Why are you telling me all this?

Because he too, had a mother.

No, not at all.

Don't believe them,

they are just lying!

They say, that we gave

him an overdose of heroin..

then we dragged him to the cemetery.

Husband number three..

Wasiullah Khan a.k. a The Traveller!

We dug his grave in the snow..

and buried him alive.

Good sense of humour guys!

Where is Anna?

Anna is over here!

Look!

Anna's here!

And that is you..

Nikolai Vronsky!

My husband number four..

with his wife number two.

Cheers to that!

Four, four..

Where the hell did

you get this from?

R. A. W.

I'm asking you, who gave it to you!

R. A. W..

Anna, I was on a mission,

we were following a CIA man.

It's part of my job.

- It's part of my job,

you understand? - What!

To have a wife in every country?

A wife in every country!

Darling let your eyes feast on mine

Darling let your eyes feast on mine

Give it to me, it's mine.

Just give it to me.

Run away! Run fast..

He ran away!

It's a mad house!

It's a mad house, you know!

You're crazy!

Come on, honey.

Come on, listen to me.

She is not my wife.

She is my colleague..

.. an agent.

And you.. a double agent!

Believe me.. we were just

acting like husband and wife.

I know you can play

a very good husband!

But to play such a great daddy.

No chance!

You're so wrong, Anna.

You're so wrong.

Always!

I'll quit the job, honey.

And I'll be back for you.

Forever!

My love for you is eternal.

Come on, you've been called.

Sir!

Have a seat, please.

How're you doing, Madame?

- It's you.. - Yes,

it's me.. Keemat.

Inspector Keemat Lal!

Officer Keemat Lal,

Intelligence Bureau.

This time, you're in real trouble.

- Look, Mr. Keemat..

-No 'Mr.' please..

Just Keemat.

I've gone through all your reports.

The local police is

convinced about your involvement.

According to them it's a

clear cut case of murder.

But the case is sensitive.

The Ministry of external affairs,

Russian embassy, are all involved..

You are an intelligent woman.

But, this time..

there is a certain item missing

from your husband's belongings.

If only I could get

my hands on that..

you get it?

Trust me.

That's it! Just

leave the rest to me.

Great!

By the way, what are you

doing this evening? Must be busy.

I need to inspect

the scene of the crime.

Maybe, some other time then..

Do you prefer

vegetarian or non vegetarian?

Don't bother..

non vegetarian.

And what would you prefer to drink?

Nothing in particular..

What do you prefer?

Anything but vodka.

You're going to get

me killed, Madame.

Sorry.. Sunaina.

Wow!

I think I've had a

bit too much to drink.

Never mind..

you'll sweat it out.

Where?

At the scene of the crime.

It is pretty deep.

In the dark anyone

could miss his step.

It was a full moon night.

Mind you, he didn't slip.

He climbed down..

on his own.

Must've been slippery

because of the rain..

.. and moss.

The rain?

In this season?

A lot of accidents can

happen when one is drunk.

He had quit drinking.

Alcohol!

How do I..

What should I say?

Forget about it.

Sorry?

Madame!

Darkness!

Pitch black!

Raining..

cats and dogs!

And..

the white man slipped.

Died!

Reached hell. The

bastard deserved it!

Madame!

I'll never forget this favour.

'Pure satisfaction.'

Like I've bathed a hundred

times in the holy waters.

No need to worry anymore.

If you ever come to Delhi..

I'd like to return the favour.

Should I go?

Yes!

Keemat left, only to return sooner.

He definitely reached Delhi..

but left his heart behind.

He'd come back for it everytime..

but always managed

to leave it behind.

Come Madame.

Come.

But Keemat kept on coming.

Saheb was left with no other option.

His quest for 'pure

satisfaction' knew no end.

I confessed to my wife.

Why?

I wanted a divorce.

And I got it too!

Here, look!

I can't live without you anymore.

I'd rather die.

I will die.

I swear on the Lord himself!

In the name of the Father,

and of the Son..

..and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Since it is your intention

to enter into marriage..

join your right hands and

declare your consent..

..before God and his church.

I Keemat Lal, take you Susanna

Anna Marie Johannes, to be my wife.

I promise to be true to

you in good times and in bad,

in sickness and in health.

I will love you and honour you,

all the days of my life,

till death do us apart.

I Susanna Anna Marie Johannes, take

you Keemat Lal to be my husband.

I promise to be true to

you in good times and in bad,

in sickness and in health.

I will love you and honour you.

.. all the days of my life,

till death do us apart.

Oh my God. There was

poison in the Viagra bottle?

The bottle contained Viagra pills.

What was it then?

Overdose?

Leading to a massive heart attack.

Very unfortunate!

Terrible accident!

Accident? She killed him.

And you knew it.
