Dev Page #7

a leader of the government

Mangal Rao

He was with the rioters,

inciting them

You are sure it was Mangal Rao?

Yes, I have seen his photos

in the papers manY times

AaliYa here saYs that...

she saw Mr Mangal Rao

with the rioters

Did anY of You see him too?

Don't be scared.

I am with You

Whoever saw Mangal Rao,

raise Your hands

You need not come forward

Long live Mangal Rao!

Down with police tYrannY!

Quiet!

Calm down friends!

Dev saheb has given me the honour

of coming personallY to fetch me...

how can I refuse him?

Bhanu, You keep them calm

Long Live Mangal Rao

The CM wants You

to release Mangal Rao

It's not within mY power, sir

LegallY, this decision can be taken

onlY bY a Judicial Magistrate

Witness testimonies, FIRs

have all been filed, sir

You cannot run a government

bY pieces of paper, Dev Pratap Singh

You are an experienced

police officer

You can understand

the exigencies of politics

I cannot agree to do anYthing that

the Constitution does not permit, sir

The Constitution!

Yes sir, the Constitution...

and its ordained judicial sYstem

bY which I stand before You

If You oppose the government,

how far will You be able...

to protect justice

and the law, Mr Dev?

Think about it.

If You support us...

together we can do so much

for the welfare of the people

I cannot support anYone

against the Law

The ruler of the state

decides the law

His voice is

the voice of the majoritY

Pardon me sir, I am not willing

to do anYthing against the law

You picked him for Your team

You are onlY responsible

for his conduct

Mangal Rao will be released, sir

Fareedbhai... it's You!

Latifbhai wants You.

- Is it? OkaY, let's go

No... both.

The girl will come along too

AaliYa is not well.

You know what she's been through

I am waiting downstairs. No tricks.

HurrY up and bring her

WhY should we run in fear?

What right does Latifbhai

have over us?

Where were theY when women

were being burnt and children killed?

I agree, AaliYa.

But these people are merciless

If someone comes in the waY of

their politics...

theY won't tolerate it,

theY will cut them down

TheY will let You go free?

We are in this together

I know them,

I will deal with them

But if theY capture You

theY can do anYthing...

to set an example for the others

EverYbodY's spirit will break, AaliYa

The terror of Latif will get

stronger. NobodY will come forward

Listen to me AaliYa...

You must protect Yourself

to complete what You have started

Constable saheb,

we're sending You tea

You are here for us.

This is a small gesture from us

Thank You, Fareedbhai.

- What for? It's our dutY

Drink up

Bharati... please advice him

He is under a misconception that...

he can take on the government

all alone and shake it to its roots

He knows who and what Mangal Rao is

and Yet he goes and arrests him!

Just because some women

reported against him

Don't You know the politics here?

Don't You know the nexus

between politics and justice?

Please explain to this man, Bharati

When a storm rages

the tree that bends survives...

the one that stands tall,

breaks

You will survive, Tej

I'll check

AaliYa...?

Dr Bharati, I need Your help

Come in

Who's that?

What's going on here, Dev?

He let the girl escape

I'm sorrY to saY...

that You turned out

to be an ingrate, a traitor

I have not betraYed You

I want to quit You

and Your partY

WhY?

- Think back, Latifbhai

I came to You mYself thinking that

I would join Your mission...

to get justice and rights

for our communitY

But after Your bomb blast...

I am not a terrorist

I won't betraY mY countrY

Fareedbhai, cops!

It's a roadblock

HurrY, reverse

Remove his gag

Who are You?

What's Your name?

Speak

Dev...

- What?

Joint Commissioner Dev

A serious matter

like a bomb blast...

a minoritY leader like Latif...

and just Your statement

as evidence against him...

the word of a man who confesses

that he attacked me...

a senior police officer

Latif and Fareed

are deadlY criminals

TheY are terrorists in the guise

of politicians

I am readY to testifY against them

Believe in me, Dev saheb

Long Live Latifbhai!

We are with You!

Long Live Mangal Rao!

Greetings Mr Bhandarkar

Come Mangal Rao

AnYthing special?

- Noor Manzil

That lowborn girl

and her friends live there

Thought tonight we will...

I have come to take Your blessing

Control Your anger, Mangal Rao

Think before You act.

- As You wish. MY respects

Supervise this Mangal Rao matter

personallY

Confirmed information, sir

There is possibilitY of violence

at Ahmedpada tonight

Nearabouts Noor Manzil. ActivitY

has been seen at Mangal Rao's

Har Har Mahadev!

(Hindu battle crY)

Har Har Mahadev!

(Hindu battle crY)

Hello Dev. What brings You here?

I was informed that tonight...

Ranawat! Stop them!

Ranawat, stop! NobodY will

do anYthing without mY orders

Tej, what is this?

Can't You see what's going on?

This area is under mY jurisdiction.

I'm responsible for their safetY

I have made them a promise.

- This area will now be under me

The securitY here is mY problem.

You are not needed here, Dev

TheY are openlY preparing

to burn unarmed people

We in uniform should stand and watch?

Arguing about jurisdiction?

Dev, You are forgetting Your dutY

You are helping these vandals.

- I know what I am doing

It's a crime

It's against the law to let

a crime happen in police presence

To hide behind the law is cowardice.

- Is it braverY to kill the unarmed?

Ranawat, call the fire brigade!

Ambulance!

I said, nobodY does anYthing

MY orders, Dev!

- To hell with Your orders!

Water!

HurrY up!

Cover him!

Bharati...

The stench!

People... burning alive

God! That smell...

of bodies consumed in flames...

flesh... bones... eYes... faces...

And...

the screams...

soul-rending screams...

burning women,

burning children

Small innocent children

writhing in the fire...

and that smell...

Oh, the smell

Before...

mY verY eYes

And he let it all happen...

our verY own Tej

I don't know what I will do tomorrow

What will happen to me, to us...

I don't know

AnYthing can happen.

AnYthing, Bharati

Are You with me?

Sir, mY report about

the burning of Noor Manzil

Dev's report is not good, neither

for the government, nor for You

It won't be right to transfer him

at this moment

That will make his accusations

more credible

To me...

having an officer like You

in the force is verY important

However, if Dev does not

withdraw his report...

and if the media gets wind of it...

then even I won't be able to help You

All I can promise is, whatever

action You choose to take...

I shall give You

full support and protection

What happened all of a sudden, Dev?

ThirtY Years of friendship

wiped out in one moment?

At the altar of Your principles?

The place for ideologies is our minds

not our relationship, Dev

Have You no feelings left at all?

Emotions cloud judgement, Tej

We alwaYs had difference
