What's up?

Been summoned?

Yes yes!

Ma!

Anu, Is there someone called

Tomichan in your company?

ln HRD. Thomichan Kozrakkuzhi.

Do you know him?

Who's that?

No idea.

- They said he works at STAR.

- Could be in the KP road office then.

-Why?

- Nothing...

-Awedding proposal.

-Whose wedding is it?

- Mine.

- Shut up!

Where's your friend?

l thought you guys

wouldn't show up today.

Busy at office, Uncle...

That's why we're late.

That's alright. l thought

l should ask you all first.

You are his close friends, right?

This isn't for the first time.

But it's been a fewdays no

And his phone is always switched o.

Who knom what's happening.

lt's alright, Uncle.

Don't wory.

You knowwhat he's like.

He doesn't even call us.

Didn't he tell anyone?

Last Wednesday he was

in Santhosh's room.

- Didn't he say where he was going?

- Seems he didn't.

lf he doesn't come today,

we'll make a police complaint.

Wait, Uncle.

He'll be back.

No, No! Something's wrong.

He hasn't called

anyone all these days.

Uncle... don't take

it to the Police now.

Let's wait.

We'll look.

Let the Police also look.

Uncle, it's better not

to inform the Police now.

- Let's wait.

- But why?

- Is there a problem?

- There's no problem...

Then?

-Why take it to the Police unnecessarily?

- It's not unnecessay!

Leave it, Uncle.

We'll find out.

Where are we going

to find him?

How can we just ignore

it and keep quiet?

lt's alright.

One ofyou come with me to

the Police station in the morning.

- Uncle... the problem is--

- What, you don't have the time?

- It's not that.

- Then?

Uncle, don't go

to the Police now.

Why?

We don't know if it's true...

- Could be a rumor.

-What?

They say he's got a diamond,

which he's tying to sell.

That's probably why he's not coming home.

Seems it's worth Rs. 20-30 Lakhs.

-Where did you hearthis?

- People are talking.

That's all we know.

He doesn't tell us these things.

But why's his

phone switched off?

Because of its high value he must be

concerned about the safety and security.

Security?

Could be something like that.

What's the time on

yourwatch now?

- 5.25

- 5.25... One hourfrom now,

that means, at 6.25,

you should call my number.

lf l don't answer, you should call

me again after 5 minutes.

lf l still don't answer...

call this number

and tell him that you can't reach me.

Then he'll tell you what to do.

Got it? Or give me another ring

before calling on that number.

Look, just three calls.

Afterthat, call this number.

- Got it?

-You mean, first call at 6.25,

Then 6.30.

Afterthat you should

call once again at 6.35.

Only then you call on this number.

Got it? Don't mess it up.

No, no.

- Is your phone charged?

-Yes.

Don't take the phone if

anyone calls in bemeen.

Park it there.

No, don't do it.

That would only add to the confusion.

Basheerbhai...

lt's Sibi.

l'm in the lobby.

Where in the lobby?

l'm right here.

Are you wearing a black shirt?

Yeah, black shirt.

l'm also wearing a black shirt.

So this is Sibi Sebastian.

The MD changed his plans yesterday.

That's why l asked you to come today.

That's alright.

He's a vey busy man. He's staying

back just because l asked him.

Listen...

One more thing...

HereaRer, we'll be dealing

with you directly.

lfyou have any partners

you deal with them. Not us.

- It's just me.

- How do l kno

l'm mentioning it because

you're newto us.

- Look Basheerbhai--

- Shhh...

Don't ever discuss anything inside a lift.

There's a camera on top.

No, no the first 60 you

were talking about works for me.

No, no... that's not for me.

Tell me, you should tell me.

No hury.

But money stays the same.

No.

l can't afford more.

That depends on how smart you are.

No... no... l'll leave in the morning.

Calicut to Sharjah.

l'll call you later. Yeah.

He is the one.

- The gemstone.

- Oh yeah. Sit down.

-Where are you from?

- Pala.

Sit down.

So...

What gem is it?

Emerald

Emerald...

Where did you get it from?

Actually, someone got it from

a temple in Trivandrum.

- It's genuine.

- Let me take a look.

Show me the stone.

Show me.

You're showing me a picture!!??

l need to see the real stone.

Yeah, l'll showyou.

But l need to clarify

certain things before that.

What?

Well... suppose we

do decide on a price...

Holl you pay me?

By DD...?

Or in cash?

Ho When? Where?

Forget that now.

Showme the stone first.

Basheerbhai...

So where's the stone?

lt's in my custody...

but...

Then what's the problem?

You've seen the photo, right?

It's original.

Nothing to wory. It's

from a temple. It's real.

But unless we give him an idea

about the price he'll be suspicious.

Him? Who's this 'him' that

you've never mentioned before?

The gem is with him.

l see...!

He's not answering the phone.

Hey!

You should've mentioned this earlier.

l'll sort it out. l just need

to go to Trivandrum.

- Give me two more days.

-You're wasting our time.

No, no, l'll handle it.

Eveything was going fine until someone

inteered and changed his mind.

Just give me an

idea about the price.

The MDjust told you, right...

He can't give you a rate

without actually seeing it.

Unless we fix a price and give

him an advance he won't show it.

- Ok then do it.

- l can't do it.

You don't know my situation.

Oh!

Then don't get into such business.

ln this business, unless you

invest you can't make money.

- Have you really seen the gem?

- Of course! l took this photo.

Bhai...

Yeah.

What's that guy up to?

He doesn't have the gem.

Only that photo.

What do you think,

seeing the photo?

lt looks valuable.

But he is helpless.

Why?

Now he says that the gem

is with someone else.

And that guy doesn't trust him.

Then get that guy's details

and get rid of this one.

Let's deal directly.

Okay?

That's ok. He'll

expect at least Rs.15,OOO.

Give him something.

He's not going to take

your calls. Forget it.

- Let me go to Trivandrum and see.

- That's up to you.

-We're also leaving.

- God! So what about the gem?

Gem...

lt's obvious that

you can't pull this o.

lfyou agree, give us his details

and we'll contact him directly.

Look, Bhai... l...

We'll give you

10 Thousand rupees.

Here.

Give me his name and address.

Only if you want to..

Yeah, l'm coming!

Coming!

Please hury.

Here.

Do you know how long

l've been chasing this?

This doesn't even

meet my daily expense.

We're giving you this money

without any surety.

Only because it's you.

You think we couldn't

do it ourselves?

Here.

But, this is only nine thousand.

Yeah, ten minus one is nine.

- Minus one?

-Yeah one is my commission.

That's on you.

100/o is usual in evey business.

- Bhai, shall l ask you something?

- Hmm?

- l know someone who's got a barn-owl.

-What?

A barn-owl.

lfyou're interested, l can

get it for you. It's genuine.

Will the MD be interested?

Bugger off, son...

Bugger off!

-Where are you?

- l'm around.

Your parents are worried.

You better call them.
