Thank you.

Did you like it?

So when is the birthday treat?

How will she explain

this to her folks?

As in?

How will she explain who

gave this huge gift?

I'm cool with any excuse.

Oh really? Give this to me.

Here, take this back.

No, I got this as a gift.

Gifts are not supposed to be

returned. Come on now!

But what will she tell her folks?

Add more of these peanuts.

- Say something.

- She can say you've gifted it to her.

Like her folks are going

to believe that!

Enough, don't roast it more!

A dash of green sauce too.

More of these chilli akes as well.

Last time you put very

little garlic in it.

- Be generous this time.

- Yes, madam.

Have you ever heard of a girl gifting a

teddy bear to another girl?

Don't they?

Nor have I ever seen a girl

fuss over a 5 rupee snack!

We need to go.

Take this teddy with you.

No, thanks, we're in a hurry!

Let's go.

Good morning, master!

I had an early bath today!

You haven't shown up for 3 days.

Mind your own business.

Is your father home?

He's gone to the ghat.

Call him.

The boy is dead.

Did you offer some tea?

Have a seat.

Sorry, I'm late.

Well, the boy didn't survive.

They're doing an autopsy and

we'll have the report soon.

Here are the court papers.

Please ll them up.

Wait...

what do we have to do

with the court?

It's a case of abetment of suicide.

But the boy...

killed himself on your watch

I mean... because of

police intimidation.

So now you are acting the Professor?

Here's the thing...

you can save your lecture to jerk off

your ghat customers.

Okay?

You must have seen it on TV?

The R.K Puram sex scandal,

Jammu and Kashmir sex scandal.

Your daughter is now part of

a big sex scandal!

Sir, please suggest a way out.

How much do you earn?

Around 8 to 10 thousand rupees.

She earns as well, right?

Yes... at a computer

coaching institute

I won't beat around the bush.

Abetment...

media, court...

I can handle all of that.

But you'll have to

make arrangements

3 lakh rupees.

I'm giving you 3 months.

Sir, you've got us wrong.

We're principled people.

We can hardly manage 50,000 rupees!

From now on...

never ever...

ever... negotiate with me.

Am I selling you a bloody soap?!

I'm hereto save your honour

I have your daughter's sex

scandal video on my phone.

One upload and the whole city

will get off on your daughter!

Arrange 1 lakh Rupees in two days.

Don't just nod like a horse!

What will you do?

Arrange 1 lakh Rupees

in two days.

And, after 2 months?

2 lakh Rupees.

Is the math really that hard?

Where to Madam?

- To the cremation ghat.

- It's forbidden for women.

Hit the skull hard, 5 times.

Deepak, give him a hand.

Piyush! My son!
