Cartel (2021) s01e01 Episode Script

1
[Man 1] I couldn't kill him.
That scoundrel ran away.
Sir! I made a huge mistake.
Yes, Sir. Sure. Okay, Sir.
No, no! I won't leave, Sir.
I will be here, Sir.
I will stay here.
I will not go anywhere.
I will be in the room.
No, no, Sir! No I will be here.
I am here. I am right here.
Okay, Sir.
Who is it?
[Woman 1] I am from the next room.
I am out of water.
Can you give me some water?
Go to the reception.
Why have you come here?
[Woman 1] Nobody is answering
the phone at the reception.
And my knees hurt.
I want to take my medicines.
[Door opens]
God bless you, dear.
Stay right here.
[Man 1] I am giving you water now.
Do not come back.
[Clatter]
[Rani] Hail Lord Krishna!
May Lord Indra
of great fame bless us.
May the omniscient Poosha bless us.
May the protector Garuda bless us.
Peace, peace,
peace
[Sighs]
[Car engine revving]
[Dev] I had told Madhu not
to include Manya in the gang.
He has messed up.
When he got caught at the
check point by this constable.
Manya shot him and got him here.
Now take him to the hospital
or bring a doctor.
What will you do?
[Major] Nothing.
Manya did the right thing.
I had told you! I had told you
that Major will side with me.
Hail Major!
[Manya] I shot only one constable.
I am ready to kill 100 constables
for Major.
I don't care if it's a constable
or commissioner.
I have told you not
to touch policemen.
Why don't you listen?
[Screaming]
[Phone Ringing]
What is this, Sir?
At least wait until the climax.
-You always leave during
the interval. -Shut up.
If I wait for the climax
it will be my end.
My wife called. I will have to go.
Noor told me
that her customer screwed
her standing up yesterday.
[Romila] Non-stop for 20 minutes.
Like the Rajdhani Express train.
What the fk!
What are you doing, Sir?
I am setting the timer.
A bullet train will pass by here
for the next 40 minutes.
That too standing.
[Pintya] Abhay.
Sister-in-law.
All of them are air hostesses.
What I am saying
is before they take off from here,
you go and land on them.
You can keep the club open
all night for them.
You can make the DJ work overtime.
But you won't go and talk to them.
Why so?
You are a coward.
Your father must be a coward.
Got it?
I am not a coward.
[Pintya] At this rate,
by the time you reach there,
they will be married with kids.
Shut up!
If you talk too much,
I will make you sit there.
-Where?
-Here.
You won't make
it alive to the hospital.
Did you get information about him?
[Dev] He has a wife and a son.
I will make sure they
are taken care of.
For the rest of their lives.
I guarantee that.
[Groans]
Don't get down.
I will be back.
[Car door opens]
[Car door closes]
Madam.
This is the billion dollar
worthy scheme.
You just have to say yes.
And maybe you
will make those billions.
Trust us, Rani Mai.
I said no to your boss yesterday.
I know but this is a once
in a lifetime opportunity.
I think your boss doesn't realise
what he is asking.
But, madam, the Cartel
will earn a lot of money.
I know the Cartel will make money.
You won't understand like this.
Madhu is with Romila.
Busy?
You have done your homework.
Arjun is at the warehouse.
[Man 2] Your goods got caught,
right?
He will get them back.
Won't you call your own son?
He is at the club.
I am really scared.
I swear, I am petrified.
You know everything about my family.
Will you have them attacked?
[Rani] Will you have them attacked?
But you don't know
anything about me.
I know your boss wants to kill me.
I even know why he wants me dead.
But still I say no.
Call all three of them
for a meeting.
And finish him.
[Man 2] You cannot kill me,
Rani Mai.
I came here to die.
Do you listen to Hindi songs?
I just love them.
I will have to meet
all three of them.
I will have to tell them who I met.
Something is about to happen.
Come on, hit.
[Motorcycle revving]
God
[Gunshots]
Driver, reverse the car. Quick!
Take us to the hospital.
[Rama] Mai
Mai
Will burn
Where is Mai?
[Major] I want people at every floor
and every gate of the hospital.
No entry or exit without permission
for doctors, patients,
police, public, or anyone. Get it?
Come on.
Madhu, mom was attacked.
Two bullets got her.
She has been taken
to Gandhi Hospital.
-What?
-We don't know who did it.
How do you not know, fker?
Faggot!
Madhu.
I am coming there right away!
[Romila] What happened, Sir?
I will burn this city down,
motherfker!
I will burn everything.
[Pintya] Abhay! Abhay, call for you.
-Abhay, call.
-Wait.
Abhay. Abhay, it's urgent. Listen.
-Abhay, take the phone.
-Give me two minutes.
-Give me two minutes!
-Abhay, listen!
-It's urgent.
-I said wait!
-Take the phone! It's urgent!
-Fker!
Yes, Arjun.
What?
[Tambe] Everyone is on the phone!
Can't you people hear anything?
Hey, do some work!
Tell me.
[ACP Dixit] If any job
is done with discipline,
then it becomes easy.
Kamble, got it?
Absolutely right, Dixit Sir.
-Hail India, Sir.
-What happened?
Why are you panting?
Rani Mai has been attacked, Sir.
What? When? Is she okay?
I don't know, Sir. She has been
taken to the Gandhi Nagar Hospital.
This board is going
to be full again, Kamble.
Come on.
A shocking incident took place
in Mumbai today.
The leader of the famous
family gang of Aarey Colony
aka Aangre gang leader
Rani Mai
has been attacked.
The surprising part is that Rani Mai
was attacked in her area itself.
Let me tell you that
after her husband.
Shashank Aangre's death,
Rani Mai handled
all the illegal businesses
of this area.
[Rekha reporter] Along with her,
her two nephews
Arjun Mhatre aka Major
and Madhukar Mhatre aka Madhu,
and her son Abhay Angre
are involved
in all her illegal businesses.
Perhaps that's why the gang
is also called Aangre family gang.
[Sobbing]
[Crying]
-Riya and Raghav?
-At home.
Mai?
For the operation
Madhu
[Rekha reporter]
Who did the attack and why
and to know the effect
of these advancements,
let's welcome
popular writer who has written
many bestsellers on
the Mumbai underworld
Mansoor Ahmed. Sir.
Please welcome on the show.
Thank you, Rekha.
Rekha,
the reason there hasn't been
any gang related violence
in Mumbai for last 15 years
is not police efficiency,
but a treaty or an understanding.
Rani Mai had developed
it with the five gangs.
[Mansoor] It was decided
that all gangs
will have their designated areas.
And nobody will interfere
with another's business.
But now,
that Rani Mai has been attacked
in her own area,
is the understanding
still prevalent?
I don't know.
[Mansoor]
Can a large scale gang war start?
Absolutely.
[Sighs]
[Crying]
Hey, Doctor.
Why did you stop?
Continue with the operation.
Continue the operation.
If anything happens to Mai,
I will kill you.
[Vaidehi] Sir, what are you doing?
-Sir, the surgery is in progress.
Please go outside. -You shut up!
Nobody is allowed inside.
-You please
-You have to save Mai! Got it?
Fear and anger,
both make your hands shake.
What if your fear
makes his hands shake
and make a mistake?
Sorry.
You do your job.
Come on.
Mansoor, who do you think
must have done the attack?
My best guess,
any of the remaining four gangs.
Like I said, Mumbai is divided
into five parts.
Rani Mai that is Aangre gang
controls Goregaon,
Malad, Borivali,
and Aarey Forest.
Providing protection to builders,
illegal tender passing,
toll collection,
and all types of consignments
are controlled by them.
[Mansoor] Apart from them,
there is Liyaqat Khan
aka Mahim's Mulla aka Khan.
Smuggling, arms, drugs.
That's his specialty.
Chairman that is Praful Shah.
He is the king
of cricket and Bollywood.
It is said that the black money
of the other gangs
is invested by him in films
to make it white.
Then comes Gajraj Yadav.
His base is Central Suburbs.
Apart from controlling taxi
and auto rickshaw unions
he runs a huge racket of beggars.
Raghunath Shetty aka Anna
is the undisputed slum lord
of Dharavi.
Rani Mai has been attacked 99%
by any one of them.
What did I tell you?
What did I tell you?
This was bound to happen.
You people never listened to me.
This is not the time
for these talks.
[Shweta] This is never going to end.
This family
will always be like this.
Uncle Shashank died first
and now Mai!
And why not?
We have killed so many
[Rekha reporter] The love
of family gang and the people
of Aarey Colony
for Rani Mai might pose
a problem for the Mumbai police.
And keeping that in mind,
the commissioner has declared
high alert in Mumbai.
The entire Mumbai police
is on this case.
Catching the shooter
is our top priority.
If you want to help,
you are more than welcome.
But please don't try to do our job.
The police bullets do
not distinguish
between gangs, Major.
Is that clear?
I am glad you came, Dixit Sir.
Hey, Madhu!
-How can Mai slip into a coma?
-Madhu, calm down.
-What was the doctor doing?
-Calm down.
The bullets are out.
Nobody is allowed inside.
There is a risk of infection.
Please understand.
[Abhay] Madhu.
How is Mai?
Sumi!
[Crying]
Do not cry.
-[Abhay] Who did this, Madhu?
-Abhay!
-Abhay, calm down.
-Who did it?
-Everything will be fine.
-Who had the guts, tell me.
-What silence!
-Abhay
What silence!
I am talking to my brother.
[Major] Mai is fine. Mai is fine.
-Where is Mai?
-You guys be here. We will be back.
-You come outside.
-But how can we leave Mai alone?
She is alone. All of them are here.
-But how
-Come on.
-Madhu
-Madhu.
[Rekha reporter]
Most sensational news of the hour.
Rani Mai has slipped into a coma.
It is difficult to say
what her nephews and son,
will do next.
Will there be gang wars
in Mumbai again?
Now all we know
is that Mumbai
is in grave danger.
[Madhu] All the boys are ready.
You just say the word.
Tell us whom to attack.
We will not spare anyone!
We will have to do it peacefully.
If we know the reason
for the attack,
then we will automatically
find out
who did it.
Do you want us to sit
on our hands until then?
You tell me what we should do.
I want to seek revenge right now.
Or else the public
will think we got scared.
Let's shoot
a few people in the head.
They will get scared
and reveal who did it.
Guns can open people's heads, Abhay,
not their mouths.
I know why you are saying this,
Arjun.
Because my mother has been attacked.
Would you have said the same,
had it been your own mother.
You
What are you saying?
She must have fed you her milk
but she has raised us
with her blood.
You will tell us what she is to us!
-You
-Madhu! Madhu!
Everyone is angry.
That's what the enemy wants.
If the family falls apart
the enemy will win.
Do not break.
Got it?
And no business should stop.
Nobody should feel
that we have fallen weak.
But who did the attack?
Rahu kaal, Major.
Perform a puja.
I will send a priest.
I will come to the point.
Forget the proof. Tell me who it is.
I will bring that person
to you right here.
He is anyway dead.
He died when he thought
of killing Mai.
Only when and where
needs to be decided.
You are absolutely right.
And be attentive.
That scoundrel can repeat
the same thing again.
Do not be scared.
[Chuckles]
Why should I fear?
Anna is with us.
That's right.
Do not fear. Anna is with you.
Saw that?
Only he came.
Khan, Gajraj,
and Chairman did not come.
They must be sitting ducked
in their homes.
They didn't even call.
I doubt all three of them.
It's possible.
Or they might have no fear.
And that's why they didn't come.
That means it can be anyone
of the four of them.
Yes.
Or someone else.
Will you recognise the shooter
if you see him again?
[Kamble] Yes, Sir.
Sir.
ACP Dixit.
Come on.
He has brought a lot of notes.
-He said he was
in the garage yesterday. -Sure?
He is a daily customer.
[Romila] He demanded
for Noor today.
I have never seen him
with so much money.
-[ACP Dixit] Is he still
in the room? -Yes.
Noor, open the door.
Come on.
Why didn't you give this tip
to Madhu?
Had I told him,
would he have spared him?
-[Kamble] Come on!
-[Man 3] What happened?
-[Man 3] What happened?
-[Kamble] Come, I will tell you.
-What have I done?
-Come on.
We will tell you. Walk!
[Kamble] Get inside.
I had gone to the dargah
to offer a chadar.
Since I heard about Rani Mai
I lost my sleep.
I feel peace
to see all three of you
brothers together.
Tell me what brings you here.
[Khan] I used to make
just one phone call to Rani Mai
to retrieve goods from your area.
Now I will have
to make so many calls.
I am sorry, but we are receiving
a consignment today.
Who is managing the affairs
of your gang now?
Hey, Khan!
I am alive still.
Who will manage Rani Mai's business
after her?
Her son.
Your job will be done.
[Khan] Hail Almighty!
Aangre gang found a new leader.
Mai is Aangre gang's leader.
And may she always reign.
But Abhay?
[Madhu] Khan,
Mai has three sons not one.
We will manage
the business together.
[Chuckles]
Greetings, Aalia.
Yes. Tell me. I am with dad.
Yes, Irfan is here too.
Will you talk to him?
Yes, just a second. Irfan, Aalia.
We will take your leave, Major.
[Major] You didn't have tea.
You like the tea here, don't you?
Diabetes, son.
Habits need to be changed with age.
[Chuckles]
Bloody old man!
[Man 3] Sir, I don't know
who they were.
Really, Sir.
I do not know who they were.
I used to take money
for passing information.
Do you like spicy food?
Tell me.
The thing is
my wife cooks good food.
But she makes it too spicy.
[ACP Dixit] Will you have rice?
Tell me.
Here.
Come on, eat. It's from my house.
You won't say anything.
That's why I thought of feeding
you good food before letting you go.
Eat.
How is it?
Is it spicy?
Little It's good, Sir. It's fine.
It could be the last meal
of your life.
Right?
I will let you go.
But will the Aangre gang spare you?
I do not know.
You would have been safe here.
Right, Tambe?
Yes, Sir.
Eat. Tell Tambe
if you need anything else.
-Tambe.
-Yes, Sir.
Once he is done eating,
give him water and send him away.
Sir!
Happy Lodge, Room No. 27,
Pathanwadi, Sir.
Ready the jeep, Tambe.
No, no! I will not leave, Sir.
I will be right here, Sir.
I will be right here.
I will not go anywhere.
I will be in the room.
Who is it?
[Clatter]
Present Day
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
[Major] Madam.
Madam.
Listen, Madam.
Stop!
I will not give you another chance.
