your friend yet?

Sir, he only wants to play the hero...

he wants to become a star.

But he is a hero already, right?

Yeah, he is very good!

Oh, he's a 'big hero'! He

leaves a little kid alone in the car.

She is 10 years old.

Why were you driving around with her?

Because she meets me

every Saturday!

Why? Does her mom work on saturdays?

Her mom and I are divorced.

See now, that's the real problem!

It's not simple!

Divorce..

they can't keep a marriage and...!

...we end up cleaning their mess!

Ok, continue...!

That's why she was with me.

Did you inform the mother that

you were leaving her kid alone?

Did you?

Look, he asked me to come over

to rehearse a long scene...

Okay-

So, I parked the car and

asked Kali to stay inside.

I went up to his place, he wasn't there.

- You noting this down?

Yes, sir!

His parents were home,

so I waited there.

Then he arrived...

and asked about Kali.

I said 'she's in the car'.

He said 'she isn't'.

Sol ran down to look for her.

He also followed me.

She was really gone.

So I started looking everywhere.

Suddenly he called out to me...

he had caught a guy!

I ran up to him

expecting he's found a clue...

That guy pushed him, escaped and got

hit by a car. Now how's this our fault?

My daughter's gone missing, sir...

Shouldn't you be looking for her

instead of questioning us...?

Hello! this is not your performance..

And stop telling

me how to do my job'?

Go teach someone else!

Why did you call him?

Sir... l... called him over to

give the audition script, sir.

But when he came home,

my computer wasn't working...

How is that connected to your

f***ing computer, now?!

Just give him the damn script...

why drag your computer into it?

Script is sent over email, right?

So he had to go to a cyber cafe...!

You had to print the script from an

email in a cyber cafe. Just say that!

So I returned with the script copy...

and saw Rahul's car parked below.

I saw the car and...

...you came upstairs.

No, I noticed he's not in the car.

I assumed he's gone up to my place.

So when I got there,

I asked him 'where's Kali...?'

But how did you know the

girl's supposed to be in the car?

I had told him over the phone, sir...

that Kali was with me.

So why didn't you tell us

this before?

You both have different versions...

- No, sir...

Your f***ing fancy fables won't

fly in my police station!

Anyway, I came up

and asked Rahul.

I asked 'where is Kali'

and he said 'she's in the car'.

So I said 'no, she isn't'.

He immediately ran down

and I followed him.

He looked in the car and then

we split up to look in the market.

So let's say this is the car...!

So this is the parked car...

Damn these f***ing daily

mobile jokes... you continue!

So he looked in the car... then

I ran this way, and he ran that way.

So towards Punjab hotel?

- Yeah...

A guy was standing a little ahead

so I asked him...

...if he had seen a 10 year old girl?

He wasn't answering my question

but his phone kept ringing.

Sol asked him to answer the phone...!

What's it to you...?

Shouldn't you focus on the girl?

Sir, won't you ask me to take my call

if it keeps ringing?

Yeah, maybe.

Ok, so the guy took the call.

So he took the call,

and I saw it was this iphone...!

This?

- Yes...

Rahul's pic flashed on the screen,

And I realised it's Kali's phone.

'Cos I was calling her, right?

- He was...!

You're saying his pic flashed on the phone?

- Yes, sir.

What assholery is this?

That's impossible!

Sir, when I call her, my pic appears

with 'Papa Calling'...!

Papa what-ing...?

You see my face with

'Papa calling'...!

Oh, that's so precious!

I've called my daughter several times

from my phone...

but I've never seen 'Papa calling'

in my life.

Obviously, you'll have to save it first...

- Save what?

It'll flash only when you have saved

your photo on your daughter's mobile!

Sir, you'll need a

phone camera for that.

Your phone's a fossil, man!

Hey, can't you see the camera?

You think we're losers'?

Allow me, sir. First, you take a photo...

- Correct.

Then you save it, so when the phone rings...

- my face will flash on my phone!

Let me show you...

switch on your camera, please!

I'm still confused...!

So now when we take your photo...

- You clicking me?

We need your photo, right?

- Then it'll flash on my phone...!!

No!! If the photo's taken on this

phone, it'll flash here... not there!

Once your snap is saved

whoever calls you from this phone...

Oh, f*** it...!

Just take my snap.

Sir, your cap!

- Oh, yes.. .wait!

What a circus!

- Ready?

Where does Shrilal live..

...the man who makes the masks?

Masks?

- You know him?

No.

Shrilal lives here?

- Yes.

Who else lives here?

I do.

Who are you?

- I'm his aunt.

What's this?

I make masks for kids.

Shrilal sells these.

To kids?

- Yup.

Does he like little kids?

Don't know 'bout that...!

We know that both of you are doing

some sh*t with kids...

No, no...

Sure?

- I know nothing about that

Has police ever picked him?

No.. but some people beat him up once

'cos he gave a little girl an ice lolly.

A little girl?

- Yes.

You dialing or meditating...?

Sir, I need to recharge my sim...

Tell me the number.

98219...

- The home number, man!

Doesn't she have a landline?

- Yes...

It's 2345...

".4267.

'Detection Squad Head - Home'

What does the mother do?

Nothing.

And who else is at home?

Her husband

Rakhi:
Let's go to the Mango sale.

Don't feel like stepping out.

You should get out.

What do you do anyway?

I watch TV, what else?

Oh, come on!

And guess who was asking about you?

Who.. him?!

I told him that Shoumik's a cop...

know what he said?

'No fun like dangerous fun...!'

Hello...!

- Yeah, put the boss on line.

He's busy.

Why? Is he bored of his wife?

Have you met his wife...?

She looks like a f***ing cow!

Shalini:

'She's rich...!'

And she has a

physical trainer...!

Comb the market and all the areas

around that Punjab hotel!

You... get me the guy who runs

that child beggar racket

Get me everyone who's on our list... now!

- Yes, sir!

And send a search party behind the

theme park.. with the sniffer dogs!

What's up'?

Meaning?

What are you doing?

What?

What do you want?

Just drop Kali back on time.

Ok, sure.

If the kid isn't found in 24 hours,

we file it as a kidnapping case.

Kali's not home yet.

What did she say?

She asked me to drop

Kali back on time.

Did you tell her she's missing?

Status?

- Sir...!

No one recalls the girl in that crowded

market. But we found some of her things.

Have you checked it?

- Yes, sir.

A couple of people did see her

but no one remembers anything.

No one knows how the dead man

got her phone.

He used to sell toys and

lived with his aunt in these slums.

What about the search dog?

The market was so crowded

that the dog lost her trace, sir.

What's going on?

Sir, the dead man name was Shrilal.

Is this all his stuff...?

- Yes, the rest is at home.
