He is portrayed to be a terrorist and the country is thrown into an uproar. Many die who had no connection with the rivalries of Joshi and his victim, in a corporate attempt to scare the survivors into believing that Joshi is part of a "foreign hand" of bullies. Joshi meets Ajay and Ria then tells them the truth behind the whole incident. It seems that Joshi's teenage daughter died because of a brutal rape by the man whom he would later slay. Revealing while "on camera" that this man and his partners have been destroying everything in pursuit of their goals, Joshi declares that he killed the man in revenge, almost without thinking.

You're watching Ruby Towers

where a bomb has been planted...

on the 20th floor.

There is chaos all around!

Residents have been evicted

from their homes.

The police have surrounded

the place from all sides.

So let's question the

A.C.. of police...

This is no time for interviews!

lease let us do our work!

Who planted the bomb?

- Tell us... we're reporting for TV.

D'you see the hand of

a terrorist organisation?

There's a bomb expert defusing

the bomb... so let him do it!

Uncle! My kitten is up there!

lease get it for me!

Has anyone claimed responsibility

for planting the bomb...?

You're stopping all of us, AC,

but can you stop Ajay Bakshi?

Look at the police security here!

How'd Ajay Bakshi...

Where's Ajay Bakshi?

How did you get here?

- l climbed up the pipe.

Why?

- The elevator is out of order!

Hold it... don't move!

Yes, l am...

- The signals are okay!

Can you see the bomb?

- Don't forget our sponsor!

Ajay Bakshi of `K' TV goes places

even the birds don't!

Ajay Uncle!

Hurry up!

- Look at that.

A live-bomb has been

planted here!

The bomb that's about

to explode... is here!

lease step back... let people see!

... here is the bomb!

Look at what's going on there!

- The cops say...

in how much of time

will the bomb go off?

ln five minutes.

- lt will... 5...?

l was told it would explode

in 15 or 20 minutes!

andey must've told you that!

- You mean andey's...?

Never mind. Let's ask the expert

how quickly he will defuse it!

Your name?

- Gyaneshwar Kale.

Move away from the bomb!

lt's dangerous!

Go on... move away!

- Hear that? lt's dangerous.

Ajay Bakshi risks his life to bring

you a live telecast of a live bomb!

Mr Kale, in my opinion, is

a very important person...

and remember our sponsors!

There are seven wires in this

bomb. Cutting off one...

can defuse the bomb. Right?

- Right!

There's just a wire and four minutes

between life and death!

So let's see which particular wire

Mr Kale will disconnect.

Will you cut the red wire?

- No.

The green one then?

- No.

The red, blue and green

are wrong wires!

The white one is with the red one

which we know is wrong!

And the yellow's with the blue one

which is definitely wrong.

How do you manage to

speak so fast?

Because l don't think!

l'm from TV...!

We've gotta think or

we will not survive!

How many children do you have?

- Seven.

Seven kids?

- No! Seven wires. Two kids!

Stop chatting and get to work!

Or we'll both get killed!

Remember? Everyone does! The red,

green and blue are wrong wires!

We now have a choice of silver,

white and black...

Gray's positive, you know.

And...

Are you saying yellow?

Are you sure? Absolutely?

Kale has averted a bomb explosion

and saved our lives!

Hear! Hear!

There's still a sound...

ls there always a noise like this

when you defuse a bomb?

No. lt happens only when

l target the wrong wire.

The wrong wire...? And what d'you

do in such deadly situations?

Normally, we run for our lives.

- Run? Well...

Come down here, Ajay!

Ajay has saved the kitten!

- Do you love animals so much?

Dad says the world belongs

even to the animals.

... animals are human too!

Ajay Bakshi has once again proved

that he's the best!

My tiger-cub! My darling boy!

You've shaken up

a 1000-million lndians!

You're just...!

And you said,...

Kaka! There's no need to

grovel at my feet!

Hear! Hear! l want to concede

something before this cake is cut!

l'm addressing everyone

from the `K-TV' family!

l used to run the canteen at

Galaxy TV four years ago.

Kaka's eatery, right?

- Yup!

When l submitted a proposal of

a serial to the channel...

the owner of the channel,

K.C. Chinoy rebuked me!

He said, ``You can make great

vadas, but never a big man!''

But our man Kaka... gave the

same Chinoy a fitting reply!

And the same Kaka's TV,

`K- TV'...

is miles ahead of Galaxy TV

in terms of popularity!

All this because...

Kaka hired...

the most handsome and

talented man in lndia!

Finish your speech...

l'll clap later!

Forget those sorries, buddy!

KTV gives you a splended gift!

Gals... and the car!

Know why l gave this car to you?

What's going on?

Galaxy was up in the last 3 years

and KTV was down!

But now, KTV is right at

the top, and we're down!

The reputation and popularity

of our company is plummetting!

Think of some ideas... please!

l have a fantastic idea, sir!

What is it?

Why don't we beam pornographic

stuff late in the night?

The family viewership

will desert us!

My own family wouldn't mind!

We need a face like the one

KTV has... Ajay Bakshi!

A face that will storm

every household!

This is Rhea Banerjee bringing

you live reports...

of a flood, 26 kilometers away

from atna in village Chappla.

You can see how difficult

it is to even reach here.

Mister... can you tell us

where you're going?

Far away. My house is sunk!

Ask the government to help us!

As you see, people are moving out

in large numbers to safer places.

Trees are being uprooted...

large trees!

But Rhea Banerjee will continue

to bring you live reports!

Keep watching TV24!

l almost died when l lost

those real tapes.

But you have saved my job!

You were fantastic!

This is the last time l'm doing it.

l've received a call from Galaxy TV.

Will you quit our channel then?

lf you think l'll quit

your channel for...

better profile and money...

you're bloody well right!

A star like you belongs only

in the Galaxy channel.

...what's the deal?

A challenge to defeat Ajay Bakshi!

- ls there anything else?

Here's the contract.

Go through it carefully.

Don't you think this figure

has one `zero' less?

Fill in any figure... but

we must finish Ajay Bakshi!

So we have in lndia at 8 p.m. lndia

and 10.30 in Dubai everyday...

What d'you say? Class, isn't it?

The new model of Hyundai!

Which friend's car have

you borrowed today?

lt's my car, dad.

- Yours?

Aren't you happy to

see my car, dad?

What's the problem? Why do

you keep worrying about me?

Any father would worry about

his son only in two conditions.

One, when his son doesn't earn a

penny... or when he earns too much!

My boss has gifted me this car

for my good work, dad.

The kitten-rescue act, eh?

ln your days, it was news

when a dog bit a man.

Later, it was news

when a man bit a dog.

And now, when man and dog together

bite an ass, it's really news!

And if that's not the case...

we make sure it is!

We only tell people what

they want to listen to, dad.

For all your hardwork and labour...

what have you got, dad?

l've got you... and l don't

want to lose you.

You have the media on your side...

- And l can change the world, right?

Forget it. Come... let me take you

for a ''walk'' in my car.

Take your mom instead.

Go ahead, Shanti.

Forget it, mom...

l know he won't come.

Don't spoil your mood, okay?

l love your car. lt's great!

We won't be late for the Chief

Minister's conference, will we?

No, we won't! What a car!
