Let him stay here.

You have to rescue Viraj

within the next 36 hours.

And you've to show the perpetrators..

..that nobody, in any part of the world..

..can harm an Indian.

Kabir.

You shouldn't have

misbehaved with my officer.

Any information about the kidnapper?

I spoke to the Pakistani

consulate and ministry.

This man is not in their records.

We only know that this video was

shot in either an old school..

..or the janitor room of a hospital.

Anything else?

The hotel's CCTV footage has just come in.

The car belongs to this girl.

Samaira Dalal. She's a local.

That means, Viraj is

probably still in the city.

We'll have to interrogate that girl.

I'll handle that. But there's a problem.

- What?

- Saeed.

I don't understand.

I need a guide, not a partner.

- What is it?

- I picked up the kids from school..

..and dropped madam at the Yoga centre.

Broccoli was out of stock, so

I got cauliflower instead.

I've kept the baby powder in the car.

White for you and pink for ma'am.

But..

..your anti-itch balm was out of stock.

- Shall I go?

- Yes, please.

- Hey!

- You're talking to me?

Indian?

I earn in Dirhams, but spend in Rupees.

I serve them but obey only Mr. Modi.

- Do you speak Arabic?

- I was born in Bhendi Bazaar.

But I grew up near Burj Khalifa.

I can speak enough Arabic

to manage their household.

Familiar with the city?

Junaid has just passed

out from the academy.

He couldn't even find a

missing dog in two months.

Because of that dog..

..I know every nook and

corner of this city.

Go and start the car, I'll join you.

I'm not a driver.

Say it politely.

Saeed, message me the address.

I'll take him there.

What the hell are you doing?

Junaid is just a rookie!

He has no field experience.

Perfect.

And the laws that I'm going

to break during this case..

..I apologise for that in advance.

Sir, how could you allow that?

For the first time,

someone has appreciated..

..my knowledge of the city

and multilingual skills.

Hi, Junaid.

If we become buddies in future,

then you can call me J.

Kabir.

So K.. what do you do?

Special Task Force, India.

Tough!

How come here? Shopping festival?

Drive faster.

Sorry, how can a cop break the rules?

Pull over, I'll drive.

You didn't get me, if you

overspeed, I'll have to arrest you.

But the good news is that there's

no restriction on loud music.

"..I guzzle down four."

"Four bottles of vodka.."

"..my daily affair."

"Nobody stops me."

"Nobody can stop me."

"Drinking all night,

lemonade in the morning."

"That's the story of every party animal."

"Drink to your fill."

"Say hello to any girl you want."

"Hello baby, how do you do?"

"Hold on a second, girl!"

"I don't know why.."

"..nobody comes with me to the club."

What the..!

You punched Honey Singh, but why?

- I don't like this song.

- You could've told me.

Why did you break my music system?

Drive quietly or I'll have

to break many things here.

Let's clear this now.

Which songs provoke the 'Tyson' in you?

All of them.

Except classical ones.

In my opinion, Mika and Honey are

evergreen. Don't judge me, I like them.

Yes?

Kabir Shergill, police department.

- I've some questions for you.

- Regarding what?

Junaid Ansari, same mission.

Ok. Can I get you boys something to drink?

Actually, we're on duty.

I didn't mean that.

We're good.

Viraj Sharma left in your car last night.

And when he returned to his room..

..both his phone and wallet were missing.

So we want to know..

So, we want to know what

happened last night.

I saw Viraj while leaving the hotel.

- Viraj, hey!

- Hi.

Actually, it is my best

friend's birthday today.

She is a huge fan of yours.

Can I get a picture with you, just for her.

- Whoa, that's hot!

- Thanks.

- I was talking about that car.

- Me too. It's mine. You wanna ride?

I don't mean to disrespect.

But I have never touched anything

more beautiful than this.

Guess who I am with, Viraj Sharma.

Nothing, just going for a spin.

Yes, coming in ten minutes.

Wanna come for her birthday party?

No, I can't. I've to be back

at the hotel by midnight.

Oh please, just five minutes.

She'll freak out. C'mon, do it for a fan.

That's her.

Thank you.

Oh my god! I can't believe this.

I'm such a big fan, Viraj.

Like, I love you!

Happy birthday.

And Sam, you're the world's best friend.

Viraj, listen up now.

We have to kill it in the finals this time.

Just be careful with your hook shot.

Sure.

No, I'm good.

Viraj, I'll just use the

loo, then we can leave.

- Cool, I'll wait near the car.

- Ok.

He's so cute.

And when I came out, he wasn't there.

How did he get to the hotel?

He took a cab.

These are the suspects.

Was any of them present in the party?

I didn't see.

Sorry, this is a bit off the topic.

I have a photo too, have

you seen him somewhere?

I haven't, but maybe Brutus has.

What's the use? He won't

be able to tell us.

Ok, officers, I hope I was of some help.

It's shower time for me and Brutus.

Brutus has such a great life!

The captain was right, you're

only fit to run errands.

According to standard procedure,

we must first talk to the victim.

But we went to the suspect first.

Are you sure the victim's not missing?

You're not as stupid as you appear to be.

And you couldn't live up

to your grumpy image.

But what's with the photos in the phone?

If you let me drive, I'll

explain everything to you.

Sh*t! Viraj Sharma has been kidnapped?!

I don't watch much of cricket..

..but I've heard, Miss India is dating him.

He must be in form. With

the finals tomorrow..

..Pakistan's got lucky.

There's no chance that Viraj

hailed a cab from here.

Athletes are much stronger

than normal people.

One man alone can't kidnap him.

There's a man who knows about a

sham, even before it happens.

Is he useful?

Who found out Osama's Abbottabad address?

That too, from the milkman.

Who exposed India's 2G scam?

Who?

Uncle Bond.

Had America answered his

phone on September 10th..

..then September 11th would

have never happened.

Greetings, uncle.

What's up, my boy!

How are you?

He's my new crony.. I mean, partner.

Kabir Shergill.

- Special Task Force.

- How do you know?

Anjum, two cups of Kewah!

You'll have Kewah, right?

Indian cricketer Viraj Sharma's

phone and wallet is missing.

He had some important documents in it.

The Indian government has sent

a Special Task Force officer..

..to search for a wallet?

Kewah's here!

Do you know anything about Viraj?

Why do I think that..

..Viraj is also missing

along with his wallet.

Kabir.

Look, Uncle.

I have widowed many aunts.

Junaid, tell him!

I can't.

This is the Bronx of the Arabs, boy.

Only the street-smart can act smart here.

Not cops.

In the desperation to find Viraj..

..don't end up losing yourself.

Take care.

What's going on here?

My apologies, son.

This is the problem with chicks.

Trust them..

..and they'll surely cheat on you.

What?!

He's apologising.
