Excuse me.

- Okay.

Yes, Mr. Prakash.

I don't know how but come to

my office within 15 minutes.

But... - Within 15 minutes.

It's an emergency.

Jai, tell Chouhan, Ramesh and

Aakash to come into the WAR Room.

Right sir.

Sir. It is a prepaid mobile number.

It is registered to

one Jignesh Sheth.

He lives in Malad. I have

informed Malad police station.

This number is

unreachable right now. - Okay.

Attention guys!

This matter should not

get out of this room.

Does anyone of you want to

call anybody or warn anyone?

No sir!

We have just 4 hours left.

Chouhan, talk to Abbas at intelligence

and find out what they have.

Tell them you need this

information for verification.

Yes sir!

Vatkar, find out from

our sources whether...

...there has been any

movement in any terrorist module.

Get me any information on explosives

being taken in and out of the city.

Get in touch with your informers.

Right sir.

Aakash, we need to trace

the call the next time.

Put your best men on the job.

Yes sir!

Mr. Rathod, how are you?

- I am fine. And you?

Fine. Tell me.

Just a while back I received

a call on my cell phone.

One man...

Oh god. Excuse me.

It could also be a crank call.

We can't take any chances.

Where is the CM?

He is on his way.

Hello!

Yes, Mr. Rathod. Who

is going to talk to me?

Mr. Roy. He will be here soon.

Until then you can talk to me.

I will only talk to the person who

has the authority to take decisions.

I will call you

again in five minutes.

By the way let me remind you

that you are wasting your own time.

Take my advice. You

shouldn't buy time on this.

Too short to trace. But this is not

the same number as the previous one.

Excuse me sir.

There was a call from

Malad police station.

Nobody named Jignesh

Sheth lives at that address.

Do one thing, tell Solanki to

alert all the police stations.

Sir, the CM is on the line.

Good afternoon, sir.

- Good afternoon.

Who is this Roy?

- Nobody.

Who is negotiating

with him from our side?

Sir, you will. We will patch

his call to you from here.

Why? - Because you have the authority

and you know how to negotiate.

There is a lot of difference between

giving a Speech and Negotiating.

This is not a political rally.

What about Patil or Tiwari?

Oh my God!

Prakash, I have never seen you

running away from responsibility.

There is a reason for it.

If this man is telling the

truth then to stop him...

...we require a person

with unlimited authority.

There shouldn't be any

red tape or protocol.

He would need absolute

and complete freedom.

He should not be

questioned about anything.

And I know that this is

not possible and that's why...
