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...
