The way you tried to trap me on the basis of proofs is praiseworthy.

The ploy you adopted to prove me murderer was brilliant.

But you made a mistake.

A girl who loves can betray herself but never her lover.

The story doesn't end here.

There are still 2 men in the hit list.

Sachitanand and I.K. Thomas.

I won't let them get hurt.

Then prove your masculinity.

Good night.

Sorry.

I won't bother you anymore. I will take him away.

Come here. Appoint 4 men at the departure. - Sir.

And block the path there. - Yes, sir. - Go.

Have you appointed men at the V.I.P. lounge?

I have appointed 6 men there and Sharif is their in-charge.

It is good that even the minister is coming.

Otherwise how could we have covered this police..

..protection for Sachitanand and I.K. Thomas. - Leave it.

Shivram. - Sir.

Our jeep should follow Sachitanand and I.K. Thomas' car. - Sir.

There should be full police protection at..

..Sachitanand's press conference tomorrow. - Sir.

You are airport staff. - Yes, sir. - Show your I.D.

Sir.

What happened? Anand? Is everything okay?

How are you, Anand? - Fine sir.

Vijay. No. Stop it. Stop it.

Freddy.

So you pity me.

When I told you about myself I told you clearly not to stop me.

You cannot extinguish my fire of revenge.

Vijay, why are you playing with fire consciously?

Fire.

You are right. You are right.

I will do what I have to do now. Don't stop me.

Understand? - Vijay.

Is everything okay?

What is so special about today's conference..

..that the police is so ready? We don't even have bombs.

An anonymous call came. We were threatened.

You can delay a train or cancel a plane if you have a rupee.

All of us can face problems because of this. So please.

Okay sir.

Shivram. - Sir. - Don't be fooled by anyone's face.

Sir. - Check all the cars properly. - Okay sir, okay.

Hello. - Hello. - What is the matter? So much police.

Sir, it is nothing like that.

We were called and threatened that something will happen.

There is no need to worry but the police have to do their duty.

Sure, okay. - Please.

Excuse me, open the box. - Its not my problem.

See it yourself. - That too.

The government has tried to make..

..our old customized business into new.

And the help extended to traders is an example.

I want to take advantage of this chance..

..so that I can adopt the new tactics of Sach company.

What do you want to say? - I will tell you about it.

I know very well that you went to avoid your illegal case..

..than to promote small scale industries..

..in your foreign trip with I.K. Thomas and the minister

What are you saying?

I and I.K. Thomas went to tour Europe with the minister.

No, it is not like that.

All right my friend. Shall I ask you something?

Nearly 2,000 people board the Rajdhani express from Mumbai.

Do all of them go to tour?

It was my bad luck that the minister was in my plane.

Yes, it is true.

Shivram. - But this is true too. - Which?

Illegal wine is being prepared in your cold drink factory.

Who said so?

I saw a news report on TV.

It is right. A story. A tall story.

Now it is the age of great mega serials.

Even news based programs are like mega serials.

A little tears, violence. And a climax.

They used to show the truth before.

Such programs should find sponsors to tie the public.

I have no problems with such channels.

They do it for their stomach.

And what we saw on TV?

They saw a lot on TV.

They make tall stories and try to defame me.

Shivram. - Sir.

Actually..

We tell the true news which other channels don't show.

That's' why the name of your channel is True Vision.

Where there is no bad thing or fear.

Your bottling factory produces fake wine worth lakhs.

And this is sent by stealth in the company tankers.

The wine flowing in your advanced distillery pipes..

..amazes the innocent public here.

And Sachitanand can you falsify the truth seen by the eyes.

Listen.

And first think about the loss of yearly subsidy quota..

..you get for the raw material needed in your chemical..

..factory that you have been doing continuously.

Nearly 8 crores.

What happened?

Don't try to scare Sachitanand with your big lectures.

I know what your problem is. And I have its remedy too.

Hello, John. What happened to the camera?

I.. I..

What happened? - Move back. Side please. Move back.

Move back. - Move back. Side please. Move back.

You are under arrest.

What for?

Sir, Sachitanand's post mortem report.

Heart attack. Immediate death due to cardiac arrest.

Then why have you arrested, Vijay? - Shut up.

Shut up, I say. Do you want me to believe this report?

Hello. Sir. Sir, I have read it.

But the report can be wrong.

Sir. Okay sir.

After all Vijay is the TV channels' special man.

I can lose my post for accusing him falsely.

Shivram, release him.

Vijay, the post mortem report has arrived. - Heart attack.

You have got the news so quickly.

All right if you don't mind write a statement.

That the police have not touched you.

Otherwise Anand's job will be in danger.

Shivram, I will leave. - Okay sir. We will meet again.

But sir it wasn't right for Sachitanand to die suddenly now.

It is a great loss for us. - Stop your nonsense.

Don't spoil your brains by thinking about the dead.

I have got the last chance to be the minister, understand?

It will be good if you support me.

Sir, you are right. - One thing is true.

After our rally even the God from heavens cannot defeat you.

We will get all the people required for the rally, sir.

But it will be very expensive sir. That's why take care.

Don't worry about money.

You will get all the money you want.

And I have formed another party to collect those..

..who have separated from us.

But I don't know who is the enemy, to hurt me and my party?

We have found the enemy.

I have found Shivram sir's personal file.

In which sir has written about the one who has killed..

..Justice Menon, D.I.G. Mohan and Sachitanand.

Sir you will profit hugely from this file. - Come.

There is no use of me telling anything now.

But Vijay..

No, don't talk about what is not required.

I will have to complete my task.

For God's sake forgive me.

In future maybe I won't get the chance to meet you.

When I think about it I regret it.

But even if I want I can't do anything for you.

I just had this wish. Whatever I loved..

Leave it. I am habituated now. - I am leaving.

I can't wish you this time.

Who are you? Who are you? How did you come inside?

How did you come inside? - Move aside.

Where is he? Tell me, where is he? - Who?

Drop the act. I am the one who is kind to women.

Find and bring him out.

It will do good if you are decent with me.

Otherwise you will cry forever as a woman. Understand?

Tell me the truth now.

Where is retired head constable Chandra Naik..

..whom Vijay has concealed?

Truly. No one has come here.

You don't want to tell the truth you have seen..

..with your weak eyes so that you can save Vijay.
