Ratanlal Bagula.

Sub-inspector.

You're in our custody today.

We're going to question you..

...until you don't

give us answers.

Who was she?

How did you know her?

You don't know that

...you're a police

officer yourself?

Tell us...

...how it happened?

Who paid you to do this job?

How were you connected

to that girl?

How were you connected

to that girl?

Sir, this is Satyakam.

Shyam Dada.

JB sir.

How were you connected?

Sir.

Bagula.

I am the head of

this investigation.

Arun Roy.

And my study is..

...you'll be rotting

behind bars for a long time.

Be sure.

I can help you.

If you...

...help me.

Look...

Bagula, I know that the..

...person who shook up

the law and country is a girl.

Her name isn't Sigdi.

Her real name is Kaanchi.

I can see confirmation

in your eyes.

Right?

We will catch her, soon.

Be sure of that.

Soon she will be behind bars.

And maybe...she'll face

rigorous punishment.

What difference

does it make, sir?

It won't make a difference

to her if you hang her.

She will just smile.

She's a bh.

Forget it, sir.

Look...

I want to know everything.

I want to know the real story.

A petite girl like her

can't do such a big job.

It's impossible.

What's the truth

behind these facts?

How are you

related to Kaanchi?

We're friends.

Since we were kids.

We studied in the same

village, the same school.

She was junior to me.

Seven years ago

I came to Mumbai.

And she grew up there...

in that village.

Koshampa.

A village for retired

army soldiers in Uttrakhand.

She was the star

of that place.

Kaanchi.

Kaanchi!

How did they get in Kakda

Land without permission?

"The scorching heat,

cooling shade."

"Entire village against

one small girl."

"Wouldn't you want

to know her name?"

"Kaanchi."

"Scorching heat,

cooling shade."

"Entire village versus

one small girl."

"Wouldn't you want

to know her name?"

"Kaanchi."

"Kaanchi."

"You're fragile like glass."

"She's like fire."

"She's a girl

from my country."

"Let the world

know...hello, hi."

"She displays all

the seven colors."

"The entire world's

assessed from her heart."

"Kaanchi."

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

Kaanchi!

You played foul.

Get lost.

Why you..

"Kaanchi."

"Kaanchi."

We've to turn this

Koshampa valley..

Into JB Koshampa

city in a year.

World class valley.

And anyone who

causes obstructions

...will be responsible

for his position and life.

Don't you know

who you slapped?

Yes, I know.

He's that scoundrel

inspector Bhagwafis son.

You hurled the trophy

which the MLA presented you.

You're no princess.

What else did you expect?

I was holding the trophy in my hands..

...so that's what

I hurled at him.

You're still arguing with me.

You're a girl still

you abuse people.

What do you expect?

Did you want me to

bow before that rascal?

- Be quiet.

- Don't beat her.

Get her married. Her

in-laws will do the beating.

Get going-

Nirman Singh,

will Kaanchi ever change.

N eve r.

What?

That Deepu

complained to mother?

Yes. To mother.

And he even cried before her.

Kaanchi. Where are you going?

Please spare some change.

Please spare some change.

Hold it!

Hi-five..

Did you complain to my mother?

Yes, I did. So?

Why you..

Now go complain to her again

that I slapped you again.

And this is in advance..

...for the next time

you complain to her.

- You'll get it tomorrow.

- That's okay.

Hail Goddess!

She slapped my son,

now watch

...how I sc

her and her family.

Mind your tongue.

Okay, here. See.

You will all have

to mind your tongues.

When Kakda family

comes to Koshampa..

And exterminates all of you.

Binda has given

Kaanchi an apt name.

'Sigdi' (furnace).

Kaanchi's the brave

daughter of my brave son.

If you mess with her,

she will roar back.

So do you women want

to burn everything down?

Your father...

died in the Kashmir war.

He left us few pieces of land.

Now Khajra, Bhagwat will

trouble us to sell the lands.

We were born in Koshampa..

And we'll die here.

Your Binda has gone crazy..

...by doing rounds

of the court.

And you..

If you keep picking fights

with government officials

won't they make

our life difficult.

Even if we all join hands..

...we still can't

face this storm

Mother,

who are you talking to?

You.

Mother, you're singing

in the wrong tune.

And the words are wrong too.

Mother...

It's been 19 years since..

...I've been hearing

this wrong lullaby.

The words can be wrong,

but the meaning is right.

Can I say something?

If I say sorry

will you forgive me?

Sorry, mother.

Don't cry.

She's crying.

Fine, go on cry.

Wretch

Only one man

can set you right.

Your Binda.

Let him set himself

right first.

Who does he think he is?

Is he back from

the city or not?

No. He never tells me.

One, two, three, four, five..

One, two, three

Come on, come on.

Faster. Faster.

Faster.

Yes, sir!

Five, six...

Faster. Faster.

Come on, come on.

Come on

30..

29..

Come on, come on.

28...Z7...Z6...

Come on. Go back to training.

Come on.

Z4.

Your hands are amazing.

Kamla, you haven't

seen my magic yet.

Come on, I'll show you magic.

- Hey..

- Quiet.

She falls down intentionally.

Don't I know?

So that Binda

picks her up and..

...touches her under the

pretext of applying balm.

If you feel jealous then

don't come to my compound?

Learn if you want to,

or else leave.

Fine, I won't come.

Don't try to boss me, wretch.

What did you say?

Scoundrel

Get going all of you.

No anger.

No anger at all.

Binda has to look

after all the students.

- That wretch

- No abusing.

Girls don't abuse.

- You don't know that

- For my sake.

Fine.

He loves you.

I see. Is this love?

He applied ointment

on her back..

Quiet!

I am quiet.

He's returned tired

and worn out from the city..

And is already training.

He's also brought gift

for you and your mother.

I don't want any gift.

He didn't even say sorry.

Scoundrel

Get lost.

Papa, why are you

wasting time on her?

- Because I like her.

- I see.

Give me one reason.

She's untainted, honest.

And second,

she's my martyr friend

soldier Surat

Singh's daughter.

She still steps out

wearing his army belt.

With pride.

Is that the only reason?

Yes .

Papa...you're totally great.

Completely.

Have some shame?

- What's shameful in this?

- Return the towel.

First I want to know why

did you stay so long in the city?

I went to see a girl for myself.

Papa said so.

Did you find one?

Her name's Haseena.

Is she more beautiful than me?

Every other girl's

more beautiful than you.

- Lie.

- And one more thing.

I went to see a boy for you.

Your mother asked me to do so.

So did you find one?

You'll be really happy to see him.

Then do one thing.

Come like this to my house.

Hey! Kaanchi.

Kaanchi.

Hey naked, here's your towel.

Cover yourself.

Binda.

Yes, Pa Pa-

Son, are you okay?

Sorry, P3Pa-

I forgot to take the towel.
