Meri Jung

Mom! There's Dad.

- Not from here, Madam.

- But he's my husband.

- This is for convicts.

Go from there. - Come on.

- l was looking for you, Aarti.

- They've just brought him.

ln handcuffs!

Save him, Mr. Gupta.

- Get a hold on yourself...

- Tell me the truth please.

- He'll be acquitted, won't he?

- Well, l'm trying my best.

Proceed with the case.

This face which shows nothing but

innocence and helplessness now...

...is not a face but a mask,

behind which hides a criminal.

Who doesn't know, that the

late Mr. Ramkrishna Oberoi...

...was a millionaire whose money

was used to build schools...

...homes for the homeless and

widows. The accused...

...calls himself a musician. On

the night of 18th December...

...the accused visited the late

Mr. Oberoi with greed on his mind.

But the deceased was aware,

that the accused was...

...wanting to make quick money under

the pretext of a music school.

So he refused him the money.

Thus Mr. Verma, became angry.

When he left the place after

1/2 hour, he left behind...

...not Mr. Oberoi

but his dead body!

The prosecution accused my client

of a crime, which he can't prove.

My Lord, l agree that

on 18th December...

...my client Mr. Verma,

between 8:
30 to 9 p.m. ...

...was in Mr. Oberoi's house.

l also agree that...

...as per the post mortem report

the murder took place around 9 p.m.

But that doesn't prove that my

client is the murderer.

The prosecution has no witness

nor any proof to prove this.

There is a witness! A person

who'll join the missing link.

An eye witness to the murder

of Mr. Oberoi by Mr. Verma here.

l'm Pramod Vasvani.

On the night of 18th December

whatever you saw from your house...

- ...can you tell us about it?

- Yes. As l stood at my window...

...l saw this man here sitting

in Mr. Oberoi's room.

Mr. Oberoi was gesturing with his

hands and shouting something.

- What was he saying?

- l didn't hear due to the distance.

Then this man stood up! And...

- ...he drew a long knife, and...

- What did he do?

Don't be afraid.

State clearly what he did.

- He then stabbed Mr. Oberoi

in the chest! - That's a lie!

- lt's the truth. - No!

l didn't kill anyone. l'm innocent.

Every criminal tried here has

said that he's innocent.

But, the light thrown by the

witnesses and proved facts...

- ...has exposed your crime.

- No, l'm innocent! lnnocent, sir.

The court is adjourned for today.

- Do you want me to lose the case?

- No, l don't mean that. - Then?

l just wanted to tell you that l've

convinced my client, Verma...

...to admit to the crime.

even though he's not guilty.

lf you request life-imprisonment

for him, instead of the gallows.

- An innocent to the gallows...

- lt's very necessary for me!

Take any newspaper. lt has

this case on the front page.

lf he's not hanged, who will

look up to me as a lawyer?

- Listen...

- l'm sorry, but l can't help you.

My dear, you've been with me

in all the battles of my life.

Now, seeing your tears, shall l

think that we've lost this battle?

- No! Not at all.

- You're the only hope for our kids.

- Arun. - Yes?

- Come here.

- Arun. - Yes, Daddy?

- Look son.

Your mother has suffered

a lot because of me.

- Don't make her suffer more.

- l won't, Daddy. - And...

Komal is your younger sister.

Take care of her.

- l will, Daddy.

- l have a lot of hopes in you, son.

What did he say?

He's a very stubborn man.

l told him.

lf he'd just make it into a life

sentence and not the gallows...

...Deepak will admit to the

crime. But even then...

- Even then? Go on...

- Even then he didn't agree.
