Anand Murugan?

He was a receptionist there.

Why?

l'm looking for him.

But...

no one seems to know where he is.

Everyone know he is dying in Melur...

AlDS is bad for business.

So, the manager sent him away.

Thank you.

That's it?

That's it.

Don't shoo me off...

l can really help you.

l'll find you when l need you...

now go.

Missing me already?

What's your name?

Rosie.

Good night, Rosie.

Where can l find Anand Murugan?

That way.

Anand Murugan?

Sir, Devrath here.

- You were right,

Murugan has AlDS.

- About a year ago he got a bag

from Armaan Kapoor's accountant.

- For a guy called Shashi.

Now who's Shashi?

He's a pimp.

He works out of Hotel Lido.

Shashi gave Murugan

Rs. 2000 for the bag.

l hope Murugan isn't lying.

l don't think so.

He is dying,

why would he lie?

- Where is Shashi?

- He told me he was going to Sangli

for some work.

What work?

That he didn't tell me.

When is he expected?

l don't know.

Listen to me...

Shashi is in trouble.

lf you want to help him,

tell me where he is.

Sir, l really don't know.

Did Shashi ever mention

anything about Armaan Kapoor?

- Where is Shashi?

- l don't know.

- Haven't seen him around.

l heard he went back to his village.

Where is that?

You know, a place that has

cows and bullock carts.

A village.

You're quite a good comedienne.

But, unfortunately for you...

it's not easy to make me laugh.

You have two options.

Either you give us Shashi's address...

or we can take a drive to the station.

Hold on.

You can't just arrest me.

Devrath, she really is funny...

she's made me smile too.

Christina, get me my diary.

- Sir, Shashi didn't come here

to Sangli.

Just as l thought.

You can come back.

Tell the cops there

to keep an eye on his family.

We have to find this guy

no matter what!

l need these pills.

Karan liked to play in water.

Ever since he was little.

When l'd get the water

ready for his bath...

he'd be so happy.

He would fill his mouth

and spout water on me.

He wouldn't stop laughing!

Karan loved to be in water...

did he have to drown and die?

Losing a child is a very

traumatic experience.

l empathise with you...

but life does take unexpected turns.

Sometimes we end up

losing people that we love.

But we have to carry on.

Be patient, Roshni.

l can assure you that with the help of

these sessions and medication...

you will get out of this.

And you have your husband

for support as well...

Along with Karan...

l also lost Suri.

The fact is Suri needs your help

more than l do.

l don't know what he thinks...

or what he feels.

He doesn't talk to me.

You know...

he never talks about Karan.

Never.

Do you feel Suri doesn't care?

No, he does care.

lf he didn't...

he'd be able to sleep.

My sadness is met with

a silence from you

Time is to blame and that is the truth

Beat after beat a sorrow

continues to stay

Then why does the heart

still seem to say

Live a little

The heart says live a little

My fellow traveller, my soul mate

Come a little closer and live a little

Yes this life has been full of pain

But there is a solace too

that it contains

l am yours and you are mine

And we hope that

this won't ever change

Then why has the road that

leads me to you broken down

Why are we meeting life

with a frown

Come let's open the doors,

let it all go

Let's cry our hearts out,

let the tears flow

Live a little

The heart says live a little

My fellow traveller, my soul mate

Come a little closer and live a little

Let the pain clouds drift away

Allow life to blossom

a little each day

Leave the past where it belongs

And listen to what

the heart has to say

Live a little

The heart says live a little

My fellow traveller, my soul mate

Come a little closer and live a little

- Sir, the guy in the yellow t-shirt

is Tehmur, Shashi's confidant.

- He's walking towards you.

Alright.

Tehmur!

Me... sir?

You are Tehmur, right?

What do you do?

l'm a beggar.

l'm very poor...

don't even have enough to eat.

Sir, l haven't done anything...

- Sir, where are you taking me?

- Get him in!

- Speak up!

He's not talking.

Sir, l really don't

know where Shashi is...

Sir, l swear l don't know anything.

Shut up!

Sir is an encounter specialist.

A few days ago

he shot dead some goons!

You better talk.

Sir, trust me,

l really don't know anything.

What will you do

if Shashi calls you?

l'll inform you.

What if you don't?

You can chop off my legs!

You can go.

Really?

Now get lost!

Shashi has never treated you well.

He treats you like a dog!

l suggest you come clean

to lnspector Shekhawat.

And save yourself.

Pande, you know me well.

l'm not trying to help Shashi...

nor am l being a hero.

l want to stay away from it all.

Shashi is into something big.

Shashi took 2 million

from Armaan Kapoor.

He can't escape...

sooner or later we will get him.

We're sorry.

The number you've reached

is not in service.

Tehmur, give us some water.

- Shashi, You better listen to me.

- Stop calling me so many times.

- l told you that

you'll get the money tomorrow.

- Come to the Mahim carnival

at 8 pm tomorrow.

- lf you want the money,

don't call again.

Seen Shashi around?

No, sir...

l knew you would be back.

Why?

Everyone gives in to my charm...

how would you escape?

You were right about Murugan.

Why would l lie?

People here don't really help the cops.

Because cops don't really

help the people here.

Cops treat everyone alike.

You're really funny, you know that?

Where are you going?

Where do you think?

That's not why l'm here.

Then, why are you here?

Don't lie to me.

l can sense you are lonely.

No fun with the wife anymore.

Am l right?

l am not here to play games.

Do you know Shashi?

Shashi?

What's there to know?

He is a jerk.

Do you work for him?

l am one of his top girls.

Where is he right now?

l don't know.

l'm looking for him...

will you help me?

Get your team to fill in for me...

and l'll step in for them...

as a cop.

lf you want,

l can figure something out for you...

Really?

What can you do for me?

l suggest you keep

your beautiful eyes open...

l don't know where Shashi is...

he's probably in a drunken haze

drowned in somebody's arms...

but how long can he stay submerged...

sooner or later

he'll have to surface.

Shashi is playing

a big game this time...

it involves millions.

So, tell the cops...

to arrest him and

chop his balls off!

No, it's time for my payback...

l've done enough dirty

work for him.

Shashi won't do anything for you.

He better.

He owes me.

l want to ask you something.

l need you to be sober

when l say this...

l need to be drunk to do my job.

Ask me...

Nirmala...

lf l hit the big time...

and make lots of money...

will you marry me?

Did the cops hit you

on your head?

Come on, answer me...

will you come with me?

Stop building these castles in the air.

l'm a whore and l'll always be one...

and you'll always be

a whore's lame son!
