On the orders of the ex-minister..

..of this province, Mr.

Srikant Pandit..

I object, Your Honour.

My prosecutor friend

is crossing his limits.

Yes! I am crossing my limits because..

..it was a cold blooded murder!

'The time this bomb blast occurred..'

'..chief minister

Srikant Pandit was..'

'..present on the stage of a play,

'Julius Ceasar' as a chief guest.'

'His tragic death has

brought an uprising..'

'..in the political

imbalance in the province.'

'On one hand one party

is in support of his..'

'..son Mr.

Chandrakant Pandit, on the other..'

'..Mr. Vora's name is becoming

popular at a great speed.'

'It is believed that this rise in Mr.

Vora's popularity..'

'..is because of industrialist

Pamela Gerewal's backing.'

'Oh, I am sorry.'

'That's okay, I was just leaving.'

'You can come and shut

the door behind you.'

'We have met before, right?'

'Yes. Hi. I am Monica.'

'That's right. The journalist.'

'What happened?

You have not become one yet?'

'Actually.. I mean..'

'Yes or no?'

'Yes, I cover that university.'

'Oh, my, my!

You have progressed a lot.'

'Would you like to work for me?'

'Pardon me?'

'Would you like to work for me?'

'My husband is shifting to Delhi..'

'..so I will have to do

whatever work is available there.'

'You have something.'

'Inform me when you come to Delhi.'

'Pamela Gerewal and

Asim Ray's arrival with..'

'..Mr. Chandrakant

Pandit once again proves..'

'..that according to the changing

circumstances of politics..'

'..the enemies become friends too.'

'In such a situation, chief

minister Mr. Vora's silence too..'

'..indicates about

a political compromise.'

'From Lucknow High Court bench..'

'..I, Kashif Siddiqui from 'ETV'.'

Oh, Mr. Pandit has come.

- Mr. Pandit has come. He has come.

First I would like

to apologize to the court..

..that I involved Miss.

Pamela's name..

..with late Mr.

Srikant Pandit's assassination.

I pricked some old wounds.

Because of which today Mr.

Chandra himself..

..had to come to the court.

I am very sorry.

That won't be necessary, Mr. Mathur..

..if you don't exaggerate this

matter in your further investigation.

I didn't have any intension

to do this, Honorable Judge.

Because I know very well

that this case is not against..

..Mr. Srikant Pandit's murderers..

..in fact it is fought

against Monica's murderers.

I am aware of that.

But still I really regret to say,

I will be helpless..

..to narrate that incident here too.

Mr. Mathur!

I am not making any allegation,

Honorable Judge..

..but it is a pointed to be noted..

..that Miss.

Pamela's mobile company didn't get..

..an operation permit in UP till Mr.

Srikant was alive.

Objection, Your Honour.

Mr. Mathur, I warn you.

Judge, I was just trying

to present some facts.

What connection does

it have with Monica's murder?

It does have a connection,

Honorable Judge.

Unfortunately Monica

was trapped in a big scam.

A telecom scam.

I object, Your Honour.

My prosecutor friend

is trying to make..

..wrong and baseless

allegations one after another.

We still have to get the CBI report..

..regarding late Mr.

Srikant Pandit's murder case.

It will be wrong to give

any comment in such a situation.

Mr. Mathur.

Honorable Judge, now the prosecution

wants permission to ask..

..a few questions to respectable Mr.

Chandrakant Pandit.

Mr. Chandra..

..which post had you resigned..

..before you came to Lucknow?

I was the telecom minister in centre.

So you quit the centre to

become a chief minister, right?

Okay, I'll ask this question later.

Let me ask about Monica first.

I am sorry, you had met Monica..

..at the time of your father's death.

After that you met Monica

in Delhi after a long time.

Did you find any changes in her?

Any change?

Yes. A lot.

Monica had completely changed.

'May I come in, MJ?

- Come in, sweetheart.'

'Come right in.'

'I have something very exciting

lined up for you. - Shoot.'

'You are the special correspondent..'

'..of this newspaper from today.'

'You must be kidding. - No kidding.'

'But interviewing Chandrakant

Pandit is no joke.'

'After his father's death,

he couldn't become the CM of UP..'

'..Vora proved more

intelligent than him.'

'But when the party told

him to ask for something else..'

'..to please him at the centre,

he asked..'

'..for the post of

a telecom minister.'

'Why?'

'That would be interesting to know.'

'From a member of Rajya

Sabha (Council Of States)..'

'..no one becomes a

minister all of a sudden.'

'His first day in office,

you are going to interview.'

'You are the best, MJ.'

'But you will have to prove.'

'Tonight.'

'Trade-off?'

'Come on, Monica,

I was just telling you to celebrate.'

'So alright, let's celebrate.'

'Oh babes. - Yes?'

'You have met him earlier too. Right?'

'Well..'

'He was not ready to give

his interview to anyone..'

'..but when I mentioned your name..'

'Two-three years ago. Just like that.'

'But he still remembers you.'

'Why?'

'Won't forget to ask him that.'

'Why only Monica?'

'Why not Raj?'

'Though Raj is a better

journalist than Monica.'

'Why?'

'Don't you like Monica?'

'Mr. Mishra, there is a great

difference between Raj and Monica.'

'On one hand where Raj considers

this special correspondent..'

'..this post, this interview

as his right, his ability..'

'..on the other, Monica will

consider it as her accomplishment..'

'..her achievement and her success.'

'Which she has got from and

she will be indebted to me for it.'

'That's why it's Monica and not Raj.'

'Let me talk to MJ.'

'May I come in? - Hi.'

'Hi. I am Monica.'

'We are not meeting

for the first time, right?'

'I am not telling you my name,

I am making you hear it.'

'Right. When I had heard it for

the first time, I couldn't hear it.'

'I will remember it now.'

'How are you?'

'How do I look? - Ravishing.'

'What will you have?

Tea or coffee? - Anything.'

'Anything? We don't get a

thing called anything at our office.'

'In that case, a coffee.'

'Send in two coffee.'

'So how is Raj?'

'Quiet depressed actually.'

'He couldn't make

any friends in Delhi.'

'He has taken a leave

of one year to write a book.'

'Thank you.'

'Bad money. Bad politics.'

'Then I will definitely

have to meet him.'

'Because now I have a relation

with money and politics both.'

'Okay, now ask. - What?'

'This is too much.

You are a journalist.'

'It's your job to ask

questions and it is my work..'

'..to always be prepared

with an apt reply.'

'Come on, shoot.'

'Mr. Chandra..'

'Chandra is fine.'

'Okay, if that's how you want it.'

'So Chandra, how do you find Delhi?'

'Delhi is still far now.'

'But this is Delhi.'

'This is the place where

everybody wants to be.'

'Delhi, the Centre. Right?'

'Wrong.'

'My father was the

CM of UP for 15 years.'

'Then how can it be my Delhi?'

'Do you know who killed him?'

'Monica..'

'..let me tell you something.'

'A politician can never get

any punishment from the court.'
