the grand conspiracy.

The final assassination plot.

So, is this the reason

agenda for the next elections.'

Tamil cause be an important

issue for you this time as well?

If we do come into power,

apart from economic growth"

...Tamil cause will be

an important issue for me.

That there is Peace in the island.

That the Tamilians

should get their rights.

This is what we will aim for.

'Peace in the island.'

'Tamilians should

get their rights.'

'This is what we will aim for.'

'My stand is clear. I want

a peaceful political solution.'

'A month after this speech,

We aren't safe here.

In your absence our house is

under surveillance in your absence.

We're shifting to Delhi.

- I'm being shadowed.

Trust me, we have to move on.

That's not the answer, Vikram.

These pictures, these killings, these

articles, the foreign journalist..

This is not army.

You killed civilians?

These killings are

political killings.

Jaya, she is a foreign journalist.

Trust me, this is a setup.

I can explain this.. - You jerk.

All these days, you lied to me.

Ruby, I do covert operations.

I monitor political and military

developments of different countries.

This country's security

is my responsibility.

We have been married for three years.

I know there is a responsibility.

But there is a protocol.

But I am not a..

I don't care about your protocol,

alright!

I'm your wife, damn it!

I have a right to know.

What about me..

How do I deal with all this?

S Lanka.

Your life was constantly

under threat there.

Do you have any

idea how I survived?

And today I got petrified, Vikram.

At seven. Beach caf.

Okay.

Ruby.. - I know you have to go.

Just go.

Hello, boss.

Something really seems

to be out of order in Madras.

A lot of intercepts and wireless

messages are being exchanged.

From Jaffna to London.

Madras, Singapore.

And One of the voices

is that of speakers is Anna's.

I've decoded some keywords.

Like - Foreign friend.

Negotiate. Middle-east.

Does Bala know?

Yes, I've shared them with him.

But he asked me not

to file or decode them.

And His behavior has

really scared me, boss.

I feel you are

not safe here either.

What should I do next?

Just stay safe.

I'll see what I can do.

Ruby.

Ruby! Ruby!

Ruby!

Ruby!

Why her?

Why?

Vikram..

I'm sorry.

Your loss..

What should I say?

Tough times.

You know my wife and

my children keep asking me:

Why do you do this?

There's a lot of danger.

Your Life's always at risk.

How do I explain to them that our

country is surrounded by vultures?

We need to protect it....

How much will they understand?

That's why I don't say anything.

Vikram, you need to bounce back.

Anyway, you are not safe here.

I'm not safe anywhere, sir.

You cannot give up

on the system so soon!

System!

We Which we know it inside out!

I need you.

We've got your intercepts.

They are being decoded.

And what you've said about Bala

I hope you are right about Bala.

God forbid if you are wrong,

you'll be in great risk.

It's a big accusation.

I know, sir.

I need to sort this out.

If you don't start begin

surveillance in the next 24 hours..

..then I'll get

the evidence myself.

And I'll do it my way.

Sir.

We've got a fix on Vasu's location.

He's constantly shifting his base.

And But his last call

was traced to old Delhi.

Stop! Stop! Stop!

Get down! Get down! - Get down!

Bala recruited you for the agency

from the Jammu district jail.

Information was leaked

from our system.

They knew our operational details.

What do you know?

You'll have to speak up, Vasu.

You know the consequences.

I just photocopied the files.

For whom?

I don't know.

My job was to drop

them to at the airport.

Bala sir's instructions.

And Shree's Shri's arms deal?

We lost a our man.

You were there as well.

Reverse the car

Who informed the LTF?

You? - I've told you.

I just followed instructions.

What happened that night?

What happened on the night

SP brought the intercepts, Vasu?

That was the first time

I saw Bala sir getting panicked.

'The file is missing!'

He held me by my collar.

He was very nervous.

Why?

Don't worry.

Those intercepts are with me.'

Your department is moving along..

A few of his

intercepts were stolen.

He doubted suspected SP.

So he asked me to tail SP.

And?

He got a call from Singapore.

From? - Some Reed.

'You just make sure those

intercepts do not reach anyone.'

I've never seen him.

He used to call.

'A foreign agency guy

met with an Indian official.'

Did Bala know what did

those intercepts contain?

No.

Those intercepts weren't decoded.

Where is SP now?

I don't know.

Who sent you to Delhi?

Bah:
sir asked me to...

..disappear from Madras

safe house after your incident.

And Who gave the orders...

...to kill me and SP?

Vasu..

While following orders

from Bala did you ever realize..

..that you'll be such

a disgrace for the system?

Such a shame.

Hello? Yes, you want to speak to?

Jaya Sah n I, please.

Jaya Sahni?

And you're calling from? - India.

One moment please.

I understand, ma.

Don't worry. I'm fine.

I'll call you back.
