But when Nina died...

I had no one.

When I look at you two...

I feel you are so fortunate.

So fortunate...

that you can at least

hug each other and cry.

Darling...

did this man come to meet you?

Did he ask you anything?

Did you tell him anything?

Sure?

If he ever visits you again...

and you open your mouth...

you know what

dad will do, right?

My sweet child.

Daanish! You better do

something about that old man!

You're busy punching here, while

he's raising hell at the station.

He's very upset.

Nina's file was closed.

May I come in, sir?

Here's your friend.

Daanish, they've closed Nina's file.

Daanish, get him to understand

that his daughter Nina...

That his daughter Nina Dhar, age 22...

died due to falling

down the stairs.

There were 19 stairs,

and each stair was 7 inches.

Total height 133 inches.

I know these details by heart.

After 13 months,

1 7 days and 8 hours...

all that's changed in this file is

the investigating officer's signature!

The report states facts alone,

Mr. Dhar.

What's the evidence you have?

The evidence lies

in Qureshi's eyes.

Mr. Omkar Nath Dhar,

this is real life...

not your game of chess.

You're right.

In chess,

rooks and knights walk around...

Not rabid dogs.

Daanish.

- Sir.

Get him out of here...

Or I will arrest him.

Sir.

Let's go, Panditji.

Come.

O Benefactor

O Lord

O Benevolent one

O Lord

Be my guide

Show me the way

Stay by my side

Or I'll go astray

O Lord...

Be my guide Show me the way

Stay by my side

Or I'll go astray

With empty palms,

at Your door I stand

Seeking wisdom

from Your generous hand

Be my guide

Show me the way

Stay by my side

Or I'll go astray

Do not torment me with doubt

This answer I can't live without

Papa...

O Lord...

To Your grace,

I appeal, my friend

If You shun me,

it'll mean my end

O Lord...

Be my guide Show me the way

O Lord...

O Lord...

O Lord...

Show me the way

O Lord...

O Lord...

Show me the way

Show me the way

Hello?

Hello, Mr. Daanish! Mr. Daanish!

Panditji!

Panditji! Panditji!

Hello. Hello?

Sartaj!

Panditji!

- Mr. Daanish! Here!

Look what he's done.

He ran out that window.

I'll check.

Look what he's done.

Drink some water.

- What happened?

Wazir.

Wazir.

Wazir.

I was sleeping.

Suddenly... I heard a loud noise.

When I came out... there was fire

My chessboard was burning.

A mere pawn... hurls a shoe?

At the king?

Now play chess with me.

Who are you?

I could be anyone.

Oh yes!

I could be the knight...

Tick tock!

Jumps between light & dark squares!

Or the bishop.

Never walks straight!

But I'm the biggest piece

that all the others fear.

I am...

Wazir! The Queen piece
