Who are these sleeper cells?

Sleeper cells are present at places...

...Where terrorism is a challenge.

We can't identify them, because...

Even these 12 men have led

a normal life with the public.

They are people who have druid

against the country and the government.

They are cultivated for years.

And their grudge is misused

for terrorist activities.

After 9/11 the U.S. is free

from terrorism because...

...only in that country,

sleeper cells...

...have been identified and

destroyed completely...

...and their further growth

was arrested.

Mom, Dad.

Who did all this?

It is still unknown.

Even the Policemen are clueless.

Did you get any clue?

The Police has seized the equipment

of all 12 sleeper cells.

But the non tracker phone

that belonged to one of them...

...has been taken by the person

who killed him.

Whose phone is it?

Adzar Ali, the one who was

killed at Dhobi Ghat.

Hey, come to

Lake View Caf immediately.

If Sir gets to know,

he will mistake us.

It is your "Sir" who has

asked to come, hurry up.

Why are you standing here alone,

where is Sir?

Look there.

So, has he found another girl?

That's enough!

He has found that girl for you!

For me?

As it is, he is posing

a problem for me.

And now he is soliciting

women for you!

Don't say such things

about older people.

Have some respect for his age

and marry him.

Come on!

Jagdish also came home

for the Holidays...

...to find a girl to marry.

Unfortunately,

nothing worked out for him.

He's junior to me, but in our

relationship, he's more like family.

Well, I am like

an elder brother to him.

No no, something more then that,

I am like an Uncle to him.

I was just saying that.

Were you? Wow!

Sorry! I forgot to introduce you.

I've seen you somewhere.

That's right.

I had the same doubt

when I saw her the first time.

That is when I thought of Jagdish.

As his Uncle,

I owe him atleast this.

The two of you exchange numbers,

talk to each other.

Check to see if you have some

biology going between each other.

It's not biology,

it is chemistry.

Whatever it is,

they're both sciences.

I want to speak to him in private.

They should talk to

each other in private.

If you want to talk,

that should be with me.

I want to encourage him

about that girl.

Ok! Carry on! I get it now.

Will you come?

Sir. She is calling me

right in front of you.

There's nothing wrong

with that, Jagdish.

She's calling you

when I am around,

it's wrong only if she calls you

when I am not there.

You must not go along then, Ok?

You can go now.

What you are doing is wrong!

We are just trying

to start a conversation,

but you are trying to

meddle with this right away.

Do you know who she is?

I don't know who she is.

Why?

She is like a call girl.

What?

What do you mean?

Don't you know?

Do you have an internet

connection on your phone?

I do.

What are you going to do now?

I can't go against

my senior's command.

He will feel dejected.

Are you fine with that girl, then?

Ok! Well, Jagdish, another thing.

Another?

I mean, the earlier you discuss

this with your family...

... and arrive at a decision,

the better.

I want the four of us to get

married at the same time...

... and at the same wedding hall.

That is my wish.

What is the height of the wall?

They are good jumpers

What is the speed of the bus?

And good swimmer too.

All of the have been

shot in the forehead.

Running bus.

Dark theatre.

Fully crowed malls.

Even at a distance of 200 meters,

they have been shot in the forehead.

But they are not the Police.

Any other similarities?

There is something in common,

but its not of any use.

All twelve were

wearing suits and coats.

What did you say?

All twelve were

wearing suits and coats.

This you should have

told me first.

I thought is

common to wear coats.

Wearing coats in America

is quite common.

But wearing suit in India

is quite uncommon.

So, team wearing suit and coats.

They could be waiters from a hotel.

Businessmen from board meeting.

Softwere engineers from a seminar.

I need an entire list of

weddings and seminars...

...with formal dress code that

look place in mumbai on the 27th.

Do you think you did

something clever?

Had you caught

those 12 guys alive...

...instead of killing them, imagine the

amount of information you could have got!

We wouldn't have got

any information...

...because they themselves

don't know the plan.

In fact, the 12 guys

don't even know each other.

Is that right?

Yes, they are Sleeper Cells.

One or may be two of their

heads will make the plan.

The Sleeper Cells merely execute,

and will even be willing

to lose their lives for it.

Even if one of them

does get caught,

there is nothing we can

get to know through him.

Does that mean Sleeper Cells

carry on life...

...as normal people

until they get orders?

Yes, they will wait for years.

Is there no way

we can kill them all?

We can't kill them, but we can

stop them from functioning.

If we kill the main head

who gives the orders,

these guys will keep waiting

for orders all their lives.

That's fine.

But, how will you search for

the leader who gives out orders?

I don't have to go

in search of him.

I've made him come

in search of me.

If we killed the 12 of them,

he would retaliate by attacking us.

That was my assessment.

I was right.

He's out to get me.

Oh, my God!

But, how will he find you

in a big city like Mumbai?

While killing the 12,

we would have surely left

behind some kind of a clue.

He will work towards finding that.

If we find out what that is,

we can catch him

before he attacks us.

Then, think of the route

he will take.

Think about it.

You will usually have

a million different thoughts.

Come up with something.

Hey Jagga, don't attend that call.

It must be her.

Jagga, don't.

I have shocking news for you.

So, you've started again.

I didn't starting anything.

Your senior officer has asked the

both of us to come over to his house.

I am coming.

Jagga, this is wrong.

Look at what are you doing

amidst our important work.

Don't chase a girl,

sit here and think of something.

I am going to tell you something

that will shock both of you.

The first one is for Jagdish.

The girl you met the other day,

Swetha, she doesn't like you.

What happened?

He claims to be shocked.

Before I tell you the shocking

news that concerns you,

you need to meet someone.

Please wait, I'll be back.

Why are you laughing?

I got away from the call girl!!

I was laughing at that.

But, why did you laugh?

Even a call girl said

she doesn't like you.

Come here.

I don't know which website

she is from!

She is my Uncle's daughter.

She has been in love with me

since she was a little girl.

But I didn't know about it.

when she got to know I was marrying you,

she attempted suicide.

Sit down.

She was admitted into the Hospital.

It became a big problem.

I've arrived at a decision.
