Let him speak.

Tell me, Vilas.

That Shinde...

promised me a job.

He said he'll give me a job.

But he stole my kidney instead.

Dr. Shinde did this?

Yes...

He will kill us.

He could kill you too.

Turn this off...

I am... l am...

This is a huge scam, Malti.

We must bring it to the media.

No. I don't want this camera.

Malti, I will need

your interview for this.

Malti. I am here... l won't

let anything happen to you.

Ready?

" Huh?"

Ready?

Do I speak?

Yes... tell me from the

Beginning...

A month ago we shifted from Colaba's

Machimaar slums to the Mankhurd, SRA.

So... earlier,

my brother had a job in Colaba.

So when we came here,

he had to quit.

He was looking for a job,

when he learnt that...

Dr. Shinde recently opened his

new clinic, and he needed male-nurses.

So... he interviewed him and said...

he needed to do a medical-checkup.

And... if he passed

He'd get the job.

Then what?

They said that my brother

had a stone in his kidney.

They said would need

to operate on him.

They said that the

operation would be free.

We said... okay...

You'll get our blessings...

for this good deed.

After that...

two days later we came home.

Vilas had high fever...

he was very sick.

He was feeling nauseous.

So I called them up.

They said...

They didn't reply.

There's a doctor in our neighborhood,

and so I took Vilas to him.

What did the doctor say?

He said... my brother's kidney

has been removed.

Didn't you talk to Shinde?

I asked him...

But he said if we tell anyone,

he will shut us up.

Shinde threatened you personally.

He said he will kill us.

And anyway, people like us

have no value in this huge city.

Even if we disappear tomorrow,

it won't make a difference to anyone.

Didi. What are you

going to do with this?

Dude, plug this in

and open the video file.

Shekhar... please come here.

I must show you something.

Now?

Yes, now!

Your Dr. Shinde is a thief...

he's a butcher.

Come and watch this.

Pia'!-

That Shinde...

promised to give me a job.

He said he'll give me a job.

But he stole my kidney instead.

I asked him...

But he said if we tell anyone,

he will shut us up.

You do understand what this is?

This is a huge scam, Shekhar.

We must expose this.

Noor, do you even

know what you're saying.

And these people...

Who are they?

What are they saying?

That Shinde is pan of

an organ-harvesting racket!

I sent you to do a positive story.

What is this?

This is a huge story, Shekhar.

And we've got a lead on it.

No one else has this story.

A few years ago you would've played

this story with no questions asked.

Where are your...

Do you have any?

Shekhar,

didn't you hear what Malti said?

He's threatening her.

Does your source know the consequences

of doing a story like this?

How it's going to affect her life?

Yes, obviously she does.

That's why I am here.

Let me think about it.

Mail it to me.

This is 'gold' Shekhar,

don't sit on it.

Monday.

Pia'!-

Can you believe what I found, Z?

I knew you'd find your story.

I am so charged up.

But that stupid Shekhar

needs to move his butt on it.

Anyway, I got to go... call you later.

Meeting, Ayaan?

Yup.

Please touch-up your lipstick.

Please... Mommy. Bye.

Hi.

Hey, gorgeous.

How are you?

Very well, how Are you?

Good.

You've got to have to see this.

Here. Watch this.

That Shinde...

promised to give me a job.

He said he'll give me a job.

But he stole my kidney instead.

Didn't you ask Shinde?

I asked him...

But he said if we tell anyone,

he will shut us up.

Who is she?

Malti.

Maw'?

Mam!

Maw.

Mam!

And this Shinde... from Kapadia Trust.

You know him.

I've heard about him.

Dr. Shinde... Kapadia Trust...

They are powerful people.

Exactly.

That's why Shekhar Das

is sitting on such a big story...

and laying e995-

Says he'll get back to me on Monday.

So you've got the report.

It's getting done...

my editor's working on it.

When does it go on-air?

You think It should, right?

Of course... in fact, right now.

This is serious stuff.

But I guess you must

wait for two days.

But... from the look of it...

seems like you're going

to expose a serious racket.

God, you're hot!

Let's get out of here.

He'! gorgeous...

You know I've never seen

anything like this before.

You're lucky.

Can't believe this is happening.

Are you for real?

We better Do this again tonight.

Just to be sure.

Listenmyou won't

get over this hangover easily.

Take the day off.

Have some breakfast,

sit at the poolside... get a massage.

Pamper yourself.

I'll see you.

Hi, Z - Noor, where are you?

I couldn't sleep all night, So I just crashed.

I called you like 10 times, Noor.

Just calm down, Z...

I'll tell you everything.

Forget that. Listen to me...

Ayaan stole your story and

posted it online.

Turn on the TV.

I'll call you back, Z...

It's difficult to say anything yet...

but if we find hard evidence...

then, it will expose

a very influential family.

And prove that Kapadias

are behind this organ harvesting scam.

Who could imagine that an

organization like the Kapadias...

could be involved in such things.

Of course, I was working

on this story for months.

In fact, it's a grave

crime to sit on such a story.

You know, Malti and Vilas

Tambe are just one of the many cases.

I am sure the Kapadias

are involved in many such cases.

We shouldn't have waited.

Story has gone viral.

This was my story.

MY big break!

It's trending on my timeline,

but no one knows this is my story.

All because of you.

And my career... is finished!

All because of you!

Because of me?

Are you sure there's no contribution

from 'Dashing Mr.Ayaan Bannerjee'?

There's a word called Research'.

Maybe you've heard about it.

Most journalists give

a lot of importance to it.

Your Ayaan Bannerjee is a conman.

But don't worry,

you're not the first he's conned.

If we had played this story on time...

this would've never happened, Shekhar!

The reason I didn't run this story,

because I knew...

this is going to happen.

You didn't think even once...

that your stupidity could

ruin Malti and Vilas' life.

Don't you have a conscience,

some ethics?

You're still thinking

about your career.

When you were shooting Vilas...

recording that place...

Did you even once think that

you should get Vilas a doctor?

News runs in a cycle.

The story will run for two days...

on the third day,

it'll be a ticker.

On the fourth day it will be out.

But the lives you ruined...

will never change.

Yes, you're intelligent...

and you've a nose for news.

But as journalist,

we've certain responsibilities as well.

Anyone can display courage

in the heat of the moment.

But acting patiently...

is not everyone's cup of tea.

And that's the difference between

an amateur and a professional.

You forgot a basic rule, Noor.

We're not just journalists...

we're humans too.

Now get out!

Shekhar...

This time it's final.

Get out!

Mam!

Mam!

Mam!
