So now give us a docket number.

Docket number?

What docket number?

For the report that

you sent to Shimla.

That report?

What report?

You all think I am crazy?

You think you'll all tell

me a story, and I will believe you.

And then we'll set

out to play in the jungle.

This is not a story,

I've studied this.

What do you want to say?

I've been doing squat

in the jungle for 22 years.

From the ants to the elephant.

...I've an account

of everything in this.

These writers never write

their book before interviewing us.

And the animals which

you teach kids about.

...we've dealt with them.

There's no such thing

as 'Brahma Rakshah'.

It's just an old folktale

of these villages.

...and you believe them.

Closing your eyes won't help,

officer.

There are others who have seen it.

Not one,

I can get you twenty witnesses.

And they'll tell the media..

...how you failed to believed

them and didn't take any action.

Do you get that?

You...

Although you're working

like you're retired.

But if your superiors find out.

"Then you'll even

lose your pension.

You.. - And through

RTI if people find out.

...that you didn't take any action...

...then there will be

action taken against you.

Anger has never helped anyone.

No, right?

Tell me.. what can I do?

Cooperation from your

office and few weapons.

Weapons.

Now according to my research.

...the weapon that we

use to kill 'Brahma Rakshas'..

...should be smeared with

the ashes of Banyan tree leaves.

Okay.

So now this is the plan.

Suppose this is the highway

heading towards Shimla.

Just like we use a

mousetrap to catch a mouse..

...similarly,

we use a trap to catch this demon.

And the trap will be.. an old bus.

We'll keep a human

dummy inside the bus.

And we'll cover it with

blood from the blood bank..

...and fresh meat from the market.

Just like a mouse is

drawn by the smell of cheese.

...similarly,

this demon will be drawn towards.

..the smell of blood and meat.

But remember one thing.

No one will fire as long as

he isn't completely in our clutches.

Because 1 or 2 bullets

won't harm him.

We'll have to shower

him with bullets.

He's coming.

I can see him.

No one moves.

No one does anything until

he's completely inside the bus.

Understood?

Understood.

Understood.

He's heading towards the bus.

Go closer to the bus.

And when I tell you..

"Start firing at him.

Okay.

Come on.

What the bloody hell is happening?

Come on.

This way.

Fire!

Run!

Go, come on.

Run!

Ahana, that way.

Fast, close it.

Come on..

I had told you before.

You won't be able to endure this.

You should have left.

You said a lot of things, Professor.

But what happened.

The bullets didn't

have any effect on him.

Ahana.

The professor tried

his best to help.

He even risked his life for us.

Sorry.

No, no, you're right.

I was wrong.

Because before this,

I had only read..

..about the 'Brahma

Rakshas' only in books.

And people write

what they experience.

...or what they've heard.

It's always difficult finding

real solutions in folklore.

But there must be something.

Some weakness. or secret.

..which hasn't been revealed yet.

There is one man who can help us.

When this being attacked

for the first time..

..the headman of the village

came to see us and my sir.

I couldn't understand

everything he was saying.

But according to

everything he was saying.

...it clearly indicated that he..

...knew about the

Brahma Rakshas' attacks.

Where can we find this man?

It wasn't just a banyan tree.

It was the villager's deity.

A deity that protected them.

We tried explaining them,

but they didn't listen.

Bad luck never comes with a warning.

They didn't listen.

They cut down the trees

and built the road..

"But also paved a

way for the Brahma Rakshah.

But how can we stop it?

There must be some way to stop him.

If we knew why would

we leave our homes?

We've only heard stories.

What stories?

The same old things.

Many years ago,

a hunter killed the Brahma Rakshas.

...and saved the people.

And then people

performed a veneration.

...and planted that tree there.

Do you know where

that hunter hailed from?

Dear, I wasn't even born back then.

It happened 70-75 years ago.

70 years.

Then possibly he's dead by now.

Oh yes, he does have a son,

who often paid us a visit.

He was practitioner

of English medicines.

He used to treat small kids.

Dr. Moga.

Yeah!

Yeah!

Okay, alright.

So my students have

shortlisted the names..

...of two doctors who have

done Masters in child health.

...and also visit

this area regularly.

One is Dr. Rakesh Moga,

DCH New Delhi..

...and the other is Dr. Om Moga,

DCH Shimla.

I think we should

breakup into two teams.

...and visit these places personally.

Yeah! - Right.

I was thinking,

Rana and I will go to Delhi.

Right. - Right.

Kunal and I will go to Shimla.

Correct.

Two bottles of water, please.

- Yes Ma'am.

We're pleased to tell you that.

...Kunal Anand has been rewarded

as best book of the year.

Yes, before this Kanik

Ray and Rohit Sharma..

...were nominated for this award.

Come with me. - Where?

Come on. - But where?

Watch. - What?

You'll soon know.

Kunal Anand is the first

Indian to win this award.

And he's been given this award.

for his book 'The Golden Sun'.

Mr. Kunal,

heariest congratulations to you.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

You're the first Indian

to be nominated for this award.

So how do you feel?

Obviously I am very happy.

And I am also feeling very proud..

...about the fact

that I am an Indian.

And I would really like to thank

all those people who read my book.

What was your inspiration

for writing this book?

Whenever someone writes something

or does any kind of work..

Who are you?

He thinks he'll get

handsomely rewarded for it.

Karan.

And maybe it's the grace of God..

Karan Malhotra.

The owner of Malhotra Builders.

The one..

You spared your

valuable time for us..

Responsible for your father's death.

What happened?

Who broke these?

I'm sorry...sorry...

Ahana..

Ahana, please.

Ahana, listen to me.

Just give me a chance to explain.

Ahana I came here

only to apologies to you.

I am here so that

I can face you again.

I never wanted that

all this happened.

I just.

I just pressurized him a bit.

...so that I could buy his land.

I had returned studying

architecture from London.

I wanted to prove

many things to my dad.

But I made a big mistake in haste.

If I had any idea that.

...your father would

take such a drastic step"

"then maybe.. I wouldn't

have been so stubborn.

Please trust me.

Trust?

After meeting you,

I started trusting people again.

I felt like there are

good people in the world.

You gave me hope and love.

I felt like there's

someone in the world..

..with whom I can spend

the rest of my life.

Someone I can trust.

But I fell in love..

...with a man like you.

Ahana, please..

"Why do people use

love for selfish means?"
