How did the table break?

I dropped a vase on it.

I can be clumsy sometimes.

That's Shekhar's wallet.

He must have forgotten it.

I'm telling you, sir...

something was definitely not right.

Your right it does sound strange...

You were on the run

after murdering your wife

and Shekhar's wife

was coming on to you.

I agree... is strange.

Did you use a condom?

No?

Its better if you didn't

cause it will prove

your story right.

What is wrong with you guys?

I've been trying to tell you

the table was broken

-his wallet was there...

- Hey boy...

Keep the volume down

otherwise we have ways

to do that for you...

Sit...

You... You guys don't get it.

I am telling you,

sir, Shekhar was already there.

You saw Shekhar come home, right?

Yes, sir.

He came home at around 7:30 pm.

- And, you didn't see him leave?

- No, sir.

Because my shift ends at 8 o'clock.

He didn't leave as long as

I was on duty.

Si r. . . Shekhafls post-mortem re port.

What is this? What have you done?

- You should've wiped your shoes first.

- Sorry, sir.

And you?

Sir, I was sick that day...

stomach problem.

When I was in the bathroom

I don't know...

But, when I wasn't...

he didn't either.

What?

I mean... l...

I didn't see him leave, sir.

Shekhar returned at around 12 o'clock.

If he hadn't come home

then he would've killed me.

- Shekhar!

- What are you doing?

- Let Maya go.

- Close the door.

What do you want?

Pleasemtalk to me.

Leave...

Shekhar.

- Let me go.

- Leave her.

By the time I returned

he had already killed Shekhar.

I shouldn't have left him.

I shouldn't have left him.

So...

Did Shekhar always come home late?

No...

Only when he was busy with work.

Then he must've been

really busy that day.

Tell me something is your

Security guard's mother dead or alive?

- I am sorry.

- You see...

Your Security guard swore on his mother

and said that Shekhar

came home at 7:
30.

And you won't lie to us.

Oh yes, he did come home

at 7:
30, but

only for a few minutes.

Then he finally returned

home at midnight.

I guess he forgot to give you

a goodbye kiss in the morning.

Do you think I am stupid?

I am telling you, sir,

Shekhar did come home at 7:30

and only after he left Vikram came.

And, everything that

happened after that

-everything important, l...

- You don't decide what's important!

Now, tell me everything

that happened

after you woke-up in the morning.

Sir...

What time did you get up

in the morning?

Seven... I woke up at 7 o'clock.

- Next, I had breakfast...

- You didn't brush?

- Excuse me?

- Brush... floss clean your teeth...

- Didn't you brush your teeth?

- After we freshened up...

Why did Shekhar come home at 7:30?

I don't know...

He came back for some papers.

- Not entirely sure why?

- Maya, look at me.

According to the

post-mortem reports

Shekhar died between 8 and 12.

What are you trying to imply?

That I killed my husband.

The Security guard saw Shekhar

come home at 7:
30.

But no one...saw him leave after that.

Sir, I've been trying to tell you

that I didn't kill Shekhar...

You...have been saying

a lot of things...

- But, none of it is true.

- I am not lying.

Why will I kill my husband?

I didn't kill Shekhar.

I didn't kill my husband!

I loved him.

I didn't kill my husband!

- Sir, almonds?

- No...

No...

Please close the door.

Sir, freshly soaked almonds

helps make your memory sharper.

You won't forget anything.

And remember everything.

And Who reminds you to eat these?

Please close the door.

Please close the door.

Why don't you just come

and show me how to shut it?

Did you find out any other

information about Vikram?

Yes, sir...

His first book was a huge success.

In fact, he even won awards for it.

But his second book was a disaster.

So, it was very important to our Writer

that his third book be successful.

Sir, his...

What are you building?

Sir, his third book

would've been a disaster too.

But, then he leaked Sandhya's name

the rape case victim

and the media took a keen interest.

- And the book was an instant bestseller.

- I see...

- Which is the house?

- Yes?

- Yes?

- Mrs. Kawatkar.

Yes speaking.

From Colaba Police Station...

Oh yes, come in, come in.

We've been waiting for you.

- Where's the camera?

- Camera?

- Uncle, I want to be on TVtoo.

- Wait...

You've come for the interview

with no camera?

Not an interview madam,

we came here for information.

Ohh...

So you were saying on the phone

that you've information

about Kathereen Sethi's murder.

Yes-yes...

You see,

it was our tenth-anniversary

and, he took me to JW Marriot

to celebrate .

We booked it on MM'l'.

It was so romantic.

He's like that, you know...

Completely different.

- Then, madam?

- Then what?

I wore that deep-neck

blouse for him

and you should have

seen his face turn pink.

Immediately he took out his new

12 megapixel camera phone,

To take my picture.

He was trying to capture my video...

Instead

he captured the fight.

- What's wrong?

- Come here.

Look.

Zoom in!

Morning.

How are you doing, buddy?

0k... This is a little embarrassing.

But I need a small favor from you.

Can I get your autograph?

I am serious, I'm not joking.

My wife's a huge fan.

Thank you.

We had a little

argument in the morning.

So you see...if I get

your autograph for her

at least I won't have

to sleep on the sofa tonight.

You know how it is...

These H us band-wife disagreements.

I'm sure you and Katherine

had your share of them.

I've heard that your books and looks

are quite popular

amongst the women.

Didn't Katherine feel jealous?

No, never.

Oh, come on...

You're such a celebrated writer

always surrounded by women.

You never had the hots for anyone?

I don't know what

you're trying to get at.

We were happily married.

- You can ask anyone.

- We did...

- Your neighbor.

- My neighbor? What did she say?

See for yourself.

Look, this is not

what you think it is.

All I can think of

is that Katherine

and you had an argument.

And two days later Katherine

ended up up dead.

I admit Katherine

and I had an argument

but, you don't know

the reason behind it.

I promised her,

Katherine...and her father.

But you still leaked her name.

Katherine published

this book at her own risk.

She killed herself...

because of you.

It was very important

for this book to succeed.

I can't change that.

No one can.

She was doing all this for us.

But Sandhyds name

shouldn't have leaked out.

I was really upset.

I do...I'll fix this.

Trust me.

Okay.

Here.

And I didn't want the book

to launch after what happened.

But Katherine didn't want

to cancel the book launch.

The book launch

is two days from now.

You cannot cancel it.

I am sorry...l can't do this.

It's not right.

And I know you know that too.

Let me remind you that

you're under contract.

And if you go against it

I'll file a case so big,

that you will never write again.

Katherine was a wonderful person, sir.
