slum by her locality.

Unbelievable how a girl from such

a polished family eloped with him!

Her father blew up in rage.

He was a cheap bloke.

Wouldn't earn a penny.

Six months later,

our erratic Mitali returned home.

Her poor father went mad

running from one police

station to another.

That was a horrible mess.

Didn't Mithu Mitra know about this?

Of course he did.

It was the hottest

gossip in the locality.

Amidst all this, you missed

the chance to marry Mitali.

Eh?

Why? Weren't you attracted to her?

I just liked her,

you know how it is at that age.

Mitali was very drunk at the party.

It was the most amazing thing!

I was shocked!

Why?

She never used to drink.

In fact in Pondicherry she was a

part of a movement against Alcoholism.

You'll get the links

on her Facebook wall.

Strangely that night she

gulped down one peg after another.

I was a little high too...

When the party was about to wrap up

Khanika led me out

You mean the one

in the bathroom now?

Take a seat.

No that's Julekha!

How many do have?

I?

Ah, this is my stop gap.

Lucky man!

So where's Khanika?

At her place, and I'm at mine.

Actually...

Anyway,

After returning from Pondicherry...

...Mitali became very

dignified, matured, attractive

After returning from Pondicherry Mitali became

very dignified, matured, attractive

You mean sexy. Go on.

I was so high at the party,

I told her all of this.

Khanika was jealous.

Hey, but I was only

kidding! I swear!

Enraged with jealousy,

Khanika kills Mitali.

What are you saying?

Hi.

- Come here.

I'm Julekha.

Shabor Dasgupta,

Detective, Lalbazaar.

Whose daughter were

you just saying you are?

My father's of course!

Who's your father?

Vijay Sharma,

Jharkhand Police, retired.

How long have you known this man?

Around ten or twelve days,

isn't it love?

Where did you first meet?

At the pub.

May I?

Please.

Thank you.

Isn't anyone with you?

I mean girls?

No luck.

I don't see your wallet.

Can money alone buy all?

No,

but...

a lot can cook up over money.

Hi.

I'm Julekha Sharma.

Mary School

physical instructor.

Will you only ogle?

Won't you buy me a drink?

Do you keep drinking

like this in pubs and bars?

Fresh lime soda salt.

Yes...

when I feel bored.

When I need company.

I do.

Do you know Samiran

has a girlfriend?

Of course I do.

Khanika, right?

She's left him.

That's why he pleaded

me to go with him that night.

He was pale with fear!

Fear of?

Ghosts!

You're afraid of ghosts?

I've been terrified

ever since Mitali's murder.

I dread she'll come back.

Khanika's not there either.

Sleeping alone is petrifying!

You tell me sir,

how can a woman ignore

the calls of a terrified man?
