Yes. I know.

No. I won't be | able to tell him.

You had better tell him.

Who was it? | Who was on the telephone line?

Whom were you conversing with? | What can you not tell?

- Who was on the line? | - It was my father.

Why don't you say that | it was Shakti Dayavan?

You've cheated me by declaring | yourself as an orphan.

What was he saying? | Does he believe that...

...he can continue to | escape the police dragnet?

Even if he hides in hell, | I'll arrest him.

What did he want to know?

The places where the police'll be | searching for him tomorrow?

Or did he inform you | about his hideout?

- He didn't say any of it? | - What did he say then?

He has asked me | to take you to him.

He said that he is performing my | mother's religious rites tomorrow.

He said that you can go...

...and arrest him | there tomorrow.

All glories to Dayavan.

Release Dayavan.

Dayavan is innocent.

Arrest each of them.

A high-level case is being | filed against Dayavan.

I need your testimony | in this regard.

You need not fear. | You'll remain unharmed.

Police will protect you.

You don't realise that...

...Shakti Dayavan is the | worst enemy of the society.

I know, sir. But please | do not force me...

...to do something | which I cannot do.

See this photograph carefully.

This is the photograph of a police | officer, who was your husband too.

He was killed mercilessly | by a ruthless killer.

Do you know who murdered | Ratan Singh?

Ratan Singh's murderer | is Shakti Dayavan.

- I know. | - What?

You know all this, and yet you | don't wish to testy against him?

- Yes. | - But why?

Because I knew my husband better | than the police department did.

He was a curse | for the police force.

He was destined to | meet a similar fate.

You may not waste your time. | You had better leave.

Please be seated.

I've come to seek | your help.

You're a senior officer.

You imprisoned me.

What can I be of any help?

All right. | Tell me.

The court will be giving | its verdict tomorrow.

It's possible that the verdict | may not go in your favour.

It's also possible that...

That I may be | sentenced to death.

It's okay.

I had already died | when I was only 10 years old.

The present life is for those...

...who're prepared to sacrifice | their lives for my sake.

I know.

But there'll be a lot of | crowd outside the court tomorrow.

People's grief and anger | continues to escalate.

We anticipate violence | and arson.

It's possible that many people | may lose their lives.

If you wish, you can | prevent this bloodshed.

I'll prevent it.

I'll prevent my people.

You may go.

Commissioner... | Release Shankar.

All glories to Dayavan.

Are you a good man or a bad | man? 02584425,02584625. I don't know.

I don't know anything.

What's your name, son?

My name is Shakti.

Do you know my name?

No.

My name too is Shakti.

You go ahead. | You're not alone.

I'm on your side. | All the people are on your side.

All the people's good wishes | are with you.

Go ahead. You'll be safe.

You've always done | good to others.

You go ahead. | You'll be unharmed.

Listen everybody.

There was not | a single witness...

...who testified | against Dayavan.

The court has | released Dayavan.

The court has | released Dayavan.

Come over here...
