'The subscriber you are calling

is not answering'

'I want to go to Prakash Chandra

Guruji's yoga retreat'

Hey, move your vehicle

There is a quarry near a village

called Chattahalli, 26 km from here

There a huge, deep pond

in the middle of the quarry

Why so late?

I assumed you won't

make it today

Where is the collection?

In the drawer?

Yes

lam off for 2 days,

so take care of the work here

Where are you off to?

I am off to the yoga

retreat center at Nanjang ud

YOQQ?

My wife has been

wanting to go there

Any problem, brother?

No, why do you ask?

You are acting strange

lam just fine

But if I find out that

you goofed up...

...while I was away,

then you are in trouble

That sounds more like you

See you

Seet ha

Mom, it is dad

What happened?

We were very scared

without you

Please don't leave us, Dad

I will not go anywhere

I'll be right here

What did you do with the car?

I have taken care of it

Don't worry

What did you do with the car?

I need a bath first,

get me a towel

Aren't you scared?

About what?

Tarun...

Who is he?

Tarun...dad

Nobody by that name was here

Nor did we see this guy

From now onwards

that will be our story

We shouldn't look

scared or worried

That is what will give us away

I realized this when my

office boy asked ifl was fine

If a simpleton can understand

something has changed, anyone can

So does he suspect

something is amiss?

He did, for a while

But when I spoke to him as usual,

he forgot about it

So we should all behave

normally from now onwards

What happened to the car, Dad?

You are better off

not knowing some things

Don't worry about

what you do not know

We leave town tomorrow morning

If someone asks, tell them we are

going to the yoga retreat

A break will ease off the mind

But the retreat was yesterday

Off to a trip

with the whole family?

Do you own this bus?

Yes, we bought it second hand

Four tickets to Nanjangud

How can I take

money from you?

So you are visiting

your in-laws there?

No we are going

for the yoga retreat

Oh good

May God be with you

Get tickets please

tiff

"Tell me, oh God"

"Is this fair?"

"Please open your eyes"

"...to our sad plight"

"We come to you

when in pain"

"But if you are the source..."

"...whom do we complain to?"

"Tell me, oh God"

tiff

"You kill the vermin

that attack a tree"

"You don't let

a snake amidst birds"

"Tigers do not hunt their own"

"But humans prey

on other humans here"

"lfthe string frays,

won't the garland break?"

"God is the bond

that protects us"

What are you looking at?

We are trying to forget

But it is hard

We should forget everything

They can prove the incident

with just one bit of proof

That is what

I am worried about

lam trying hard

to protect you all

Please trust me

and listen to me

'Tell me, oh God"

"Is this fair?"

tiff

Connect me to the cyber cell

tiff

"Happy are they..."

"...who wish ill on others

Indeed it is a dark age"

"Good souls are

being tormented"

"Where do they go?"

"Please give them the strength

to face all their troubles"

"Make them strong

to face anyone"

"There is turmoil here"

"Where do we find peace?"

"Dear god, save us,

hold our hands"

We traced Tarun's

mobile number...

"travelling via Shimoga,

Hubli, Kolhapur, Pune...

...and finally to

Mumbai's Y P Nagar

That is an industrial area

The mobile was switched off there

He did say he has friends

in Goa and Mumbai

He might be on

a holiday with them

"Tell me, oh God"

"Is this fair?"

"We come to you

when in pain"

"But if you are the source..."

"...whom do we complain to?"

"Tell me, oh God"

It appears the car has

been submerged for days

Yes, madam, two or three weeks

Who found it?

Some local boys swimming found it

They informed us

Excuse me, did you

search in the water?

We did sir

We found nothing

Nothing you need to worry about

Mr Sridhar Munhy, wrap it up

before the media finds out

Sure, madam

Madam, on March 1st at

7:
18 pm, the last recorded...

...call to Tarun's phone

was from 9448072505

It originated from

Moornadu near Madikeri

The phone was switched

off at midnight

Then it got switched on

at 10:
10 on 2nd

The mobile was finally

switched off in Mum bai

So our investigations must center around

Moornadu station and the quarry

We must find out

who Tarun spoke to last

Okay, mad am

Yes, send him in

From the account number

you mentioned...

...money was last withdrawn on

the 1st at the Moornadu ATM

How much?

20,000 rupees

Rs 20,000?

Why would he need that much?

The mobile with which the call

on 1st March was made...

...and the mobile that received

the call on 2nd are different

Two different IMEI numbers

Probably, he withdrew money

to buy a new mobile

Not a chance

He just bought a mobile

two-three months ago!

Roopa, I think

our son is in trouble

Hey, what is this?

Panchayat tax!

I can see that

Why haven't you paid the tax?

I told you to pay it

three weeks ago

I don't think it

was three weeks ago

Oh really?

Did I not tell you to pay

the day afterl came from the retreat?

His name is

Tarun Chandrashekar

...the son of our IG,

Roopa Chandrashekar

He's missing

He was in our police station limits

on 1st March, telephone records

This is his car number

KA-01, CA-7209

A Maruti Zen found in the

lake of Chattahalli quarry

Hey Ranga!

How is the child?

He's better, sir

They're discharging

him tomorrow

Right, fork out 100 rupees

- Sir...no money

- Hey! Out with it

Sir, please...sir

Where did this

20 come from?

- I have only that much, sir

- Hey, get lost

He swindles everything

Half a pack of cigarettes

Sir, tea?

Mo, get going

We've got a super case

All of us running behind it

What case?

What can I say?

Ayellow Maruti Zen has been

found in the neighboring quarry

Which quarry?

The one in Chattahalli

Why are the Moornadu

police investigating?

There's no case

The IG office wants

information on the car

The IG can order us

just like that

But it is us who have

to do the actual work

Sir...?

What is the matter?

What is this new habit?

I felt like paying you today

Don't be stubborn

You already have

a grudge against him

Look, God is the reason

behind all adversity

Sir, I saw him drive the car!

When I spoke of the car now,

he was shocked

Sir, he has something

to do with this case

Look, if he is guilty,

he will surely turn and look at us

What do you

have to say now?

What is the connection between

Rajendra Ponnappa and the lG's son?

Sir, it's like creating

a connection between...

...the holy thread

and the loincloth thread

This is due to the grudge that

Suryaprakash bears against Rajendra

Or Suryaprakash may have

mistaken someone else for Rajendra

Sir, Rajendra Ponnappa

is a good man

I too know that

But Suryaprakash is

strongly convinced

Come in

Sir, on Sunday,

March 2nd, at 7:
30 am...

...l was at Lingaraju's house

for passport verification

That's the day I saw Rajendra
