at the university.
Professor is booking
a room in a hotel.
Perfect, let's track him.
- How long will this go on?
How far did you go with those girls?
I made a mistake.
- And 2013, the harassment case?
We ran away together 15 years ago.
We've been together ever since.
Both of you should marry
two brothers.
We are enough for each other
For everything!
Mr and Mrs Karim Ali. - They didn't
have children of their own.
How dare you come here!
I thought
- She ran away when she was 15.
They are in love with each other.
Abort. We won't do anything.
So you will lie to Shehnaz?
Hello, Shehnaz?
Sara!
I'm doing a TV serial, it's a small
role, but the TRPs are great!
And I've also met someone.
Just like my parents
you betrayed me too.
"I am a witch."
"My eyes cast black magic."
"I wander in the darkness of night."
"My aura will instil fear in you."
"Witch.
- It's my reincarnation."
"Witch.
- It's the end of your story."
'CHURAILS'
5. BOUNDARIES
If you want to die, you cut
vertically, not horizontally.
Who the fuck wants to die?
I'm just addicted to the pain.
- What a drama queen!
I will leave in a couple of days.
No one is going anywhere.
Just go back to sleep.
Grumpy!
'The upward swing in Karachi
Stock Exchange continues.'
'And the trading has seen
an increase in 100 Index'
'of over 550 points.'
'Index has crossed the 36,000 mark.'
'Housewife turns butcher!'
'A 50 year old woman,
Shehnaz Khalid'
'brutally murdered her husband,'
'severed his leg'
'and cooked 'nihari'
(stew) with it.'
'Yes, ladies and gentlemen.
'Nihari!'
Boss.
Hmm?
Boss
What is it?
That 'nihari' lady
has lost her mind.
She's talking about ghosts
and 'churails' (witches).
You handle her.
'Churails.'
What did you say?
Witches.
'Churails.'
I haven't seen them.
Then how did you meet them?
- Halal.
Men will suffer.
Halal, men will suffer.
What is she saying?
I don't know,
boss, you deal with this.
Is she drunk?
- Halal Designs.
That's the name of the shop.
The women working in that shop
have taken advantage of my client's
fragile psychological state.
They forced her into murdering
her husband.
Wow, madam!
She slaughtered him,
cooked him and ate him.
But witches are to be blamed.
Nice!
Boss.
'The number you've called is
currently switched off.'
'Please try again later.'
"MEN WILL SUFFER"
Sir.
I need a search warrant issued.
Appears to be a clothing store,
but it might be
more than what it appears to be.
The name of the shop
is Halal Designs.
And the building this shop is in
Belongs to Jamil Khan.
Welcome to my kitty party.
Ooh, is that a Gucci bag?
Did you know slaves die for this?
Yes, This diamond swag.
Owners and employees on one side,
everyone else vacate this place.
The shop will be closed
for a little while.
Hurry up and leave!
Go out.
Blow your husbands' cash
some place else!
Dear Afzal!
- Yes, sir.
You'll confiscate everyone's
phones
and other dear officers will search
every corner of this shop.
Thank you for your co-operation.
What is happening?
- Give me your phone.
What's going on madam,
is that we've a warrant
to search the property
and to confiscate any electronic
equipment
including phones,
computers as evidence.
You know whose wife I am?
I do,
that's why I've come here myself.
Else in this scorching heat,
all I want to do
is lie butt naked in a freezer.
Leave no stone unturned, boys.
Afzal.
- Yes, sir?
Madam's mobile phone.
Boss!
There is a basement here!
Come and check this out!
Well
What does Shehnaz Khalid
have to do with you?
Shehnaz Khalid.
That cannibal? I saw it on the news.
News?
May I suggest something?
Until the investigation is over
Keep your shop closed.
Thank you for the suggestion but
until you charge us for a crime
it will be business as usual here.
Shehnaz's lawyer will plead
impairment due to grief.
Insanity defence.
The blame will be shifted to us.
The police will come knocking.
But they won't find
anything here.
Chop, chop!
The one having the betel quid
God damn!
Boss, aunty's eyes are
burning with madness.
She'll fuck you up.
Imran
All my life,
I've been searching for a woman
who'll fuck me up, good and proper.
She'll do that, boss.
Call your media guy.
Boss, then
They'll shit bricks.
- Yes.
That's how the truth will come out.
Hello? Yes, Chand Nawab.
Viewers
Welcome to 'Be Parda' once again.
I am your friend, your host
Anees Qadri.
Just a few minutes ago,
we broke exclusive news to you.
Cannibal Shehnaz didn't turn her
house into a slaughterhouse
all by herself.
Right now, our team is present
outside a clothing shop.
Halal Designs.
Dilbar
We're fucked.
Make sure you report
about this properly.
"Stop, where are you going?"
Ma'am, answer us.
- You stay back.
Ma'am, how are you connected
to Shehnaz Khalid?
'Two women are behind this shop.'
'An infamous socialite,
Jugnu Chaudhry,'
'and Sara Khan.'
'Whose husband Jamil Khan is
a renowned politician.'
'He's been an MNA for TIT party.'
'Working with them was
a seasoned criminal,'
'Batool Hussain.'
'Men Will Suffer.'
This slogan can be seen
everywhere across the city.
'In our society where women are
exemplified for their innocence'
'why did these women plot this
conspiracy against men?'
Infamous socialite?
I'll fucking kill these people!
Boss, a jeep is here for you.
Jamil.
You, me and Batool will exit
from the front door.
The rest of you, take the back exit.
No, we will go together.
- No, honey.
Back door. Now!
Get going, we need to hurry.
Come on.
- We want answers.
You have to answer us.
Are you involved?
A random girl rocks up with
absolutely no proof
says what she wants,
and you believe her.
You all should be reporting real,
actual news.
So her claim that Jamil Khan
harassed her is false?
It's completely false!
My husband can never
do such a thing.
Ma'am, didn't you think
that this could sabotage your
husband's political career?
Ma'am! You have to answer!
You cannot leave without answering,
ma'am!
Ma'am, tell us!
Hell!
Ma'am please answer.
You have to respond.
You know what I find real ironic?
For all of this anti-male
propaganda
who do you think saved the
poor damsel in distress?
It was her husband!
We don't know that.
- Of course we do!
That was his car.
Those were his men.
Sometimes I think,
it's convenient for you
to use men however you feel
Junaid, whatever happened to
'innocent until proven guilty'?
'At this point,
it's all conjecture.'
'Nothing so far links them
either to the murder'
'or to the 'Men Will
Suffer' campaign.'
What was the need to send
an army of guards?
'Why do you think that the police
was there in the first place?'
Is it true?
Is this true?
I'll ask you this once.
Tell me the truth.
With that girl
- Of course not!
Okay.
It'll be my word against hers.
I was alone. There is
No alibi. I
I got you, baby.
I got you.
It's nothing like that,
we are running a small boutique.
I should've known better.
I shouldn't have given
you the permission.
Who asked for your permission?
You'll shut down this
boutique immediately.
Fine, I'll until the investigation
is complete. - No!
I mean shut it down for good.
No chance in hell. - Sara,
what the hell is wrong with you?
That building is under my name,
it's gonna fuck my career!
So, you'd rather fuck mine?
I am not your enemy!
Then don't ask me to leave
the one thing
that truly belongs only to me.
I need this, Jamil.
I need this more than I need you
more than I need my kids and
that is the honest truth.
Fine.
At least tell me how I can help you.
Just let me do my job.
Okay.
- Thank you.
'The number you've called is
currently switched off.'
Who are you calling?
The one whose name we
don't take any more.
Sheila?
Sara will fire me if
she comes to know.
But I thought, now that everything
is coming to an end
she might help me get an audition.
Oye, little one!
Now you'll go do vulgar dances
in films? Fuck that!
Better than being a whore,
dancing around in beds.
Here, with all of you, for
the first time, I felt
That I had a purpose.
Let me tell you.
This bitch of a life we live
is designed to keep us
away from happiness.
Just when happiness is
almost in our reach
the universe shoves a long
shaft up our asses.
So what? You enjoy shafts up your
ass. - I knew you'd say that!
Cheap lesbo!
You tell me, what does the universe
have to do with any of this?
We are enough to fuck each other up.
Right? Why are people so awful?
Munni,
even I don't have an answer to that.
Why do you take so much fatigue?
Here, have this.
Watch the waves.
Enjoy.
You won't find anything in
the computers and phones.
Because there is nothing to find.
Ma'am
I'm not done talking.
Talk.
If it's about medal or promotion
and you need a scapegoat for that,
I'm at your service.
Arrest me
Punish me.
But don't
humiliate the others.
Indeed, you're a scapegoat for them.
You have a family, boss?
I have a father
a mother, a brother
I don't have a wife.
God willing, I'll have one soon.
I had parents too.
I lost them.
I had a husband
A daughter
I lost them too.
Now that I'm about to
lose my third
and last family, I've realised
That we keep repeating the same
mistakes, again and again
Going around in circles.
And then one day we die.
Then, no mistake
and no circle.
We need to rectify the mistake.
I mean, infamous socialite?
Infamous socialite!
What a tragedy darling, I swear.
Honestly! I mean, I was just like
Ask him.
Ask him! You know. I mean
I was in tears.
Literally, natural tears.
I was like,
'Bitches, do you even know,'
'Jugnu Chaudhry is to Pakistan'
'what Kim Kardashian
is to the West.'
'Or Khloe, or Kendall.'
- Kendall's far too young.
Oh, that is so sweet, boys.
And, I know this is totally bizarre
and I hate to have asked
but us queens should've each
other's backs, right?
Oh honey, literally.
We're really glad that
you came to us.
Look, we can't really hand
over the weddings to you.
Our clients want the personal
Ro and Ho touch.
But you can take over
the smaller projects.
We will of course take a
tiny percentage from it.
But you'll have complete
creative freedom.
This is
- 'Khatna' party.
Beg your pardon?
They're all the rage these days!
What kind of celebration is that?
Circumcision! Get with it!
You know, snip, snip!
Think 'Aqeeqah' 2.0.
Oh, I like that.
- Yes. Me too, me too!
Listen,
can you keep this too please?
The table is right there.
Yes.
- You leave it there.
Thank you.
Can I take a picture with you?
Oh! Sure.
This
How are you doin'?
Did it hurt?
No pain, no gain, little one.
Anyway
Congratulations!
Here, your
- Take a full length.
Okay.
My sister used your service
to catch her husband.
Um, I don't know
I know we're not supposed
to talk about it here.
But he suffered.
It was good.
He finally learnt a lesson.
May God bless you and your sisters.
You heard that?
But you're going to grow up
to be a good one, right?
Really good one.
"A WIFE BRUTALLY MURDERS
HER HUSBAND."
Laptops, mobile phones
are all clean.
There's been no push back
from the higher powers.
If Jamil Khan's wife was
really involved
he wouldn't have stayed quiet.
Sir, I think before everyone
starts saying
that we've framed innocent
women in a fake case
Let's bury this here.
Our entire department will
be slandered, Jamshed!
Sir, before matters get worse
a little humiliation now would do.
What do you say?
You did it for me?
Shehnaz Khalid's claim against Halal
Designs has been proven wrong.
Our entire police force
apologises to the respectable
ladies of Halal Designs
who have come under undue scrutiny
due to our investigation.
I request public and media both
to not focus much on any news
against Halal Designs.
'Now, now, Hania, I know
what side you're on,'
'but one has to ask.'
What kind of pressure has Jamil Khan
put on the police department
'for them to take a
u-turn like this?'
'Oh, well. Here we go again with
the conspiracy theories.'
I can't remember when you put this.
I don't know. I guess
Two years ago.
You were in London.
Oh, yeah!
It's pretty.
We need to call Dr Hansotia.
Why? Is the baby okay?
Yeah.
The baby is fine.
'I for one am very happy
that these
women have been proved innocent.'
The boutique is reopening today.
'That's all for now, folks.'
'Join us next week,
for some more Frank Talk.'
They won't stop hounding
you so easily.
Nor you.
What fun is politics without
some scandal?
Go.
I got you.
Stop firing the gardeners.
As per the police,
Halal Designs and its owners
didn't conspire with
Shehnaz Khalid.
Then why are the public
protesting today?
Is some aspect of the investigation
being hidden from us?
Or is this a plan orchestrated by
Jamil Khan's political opponents?

This was their battle.

where the peaceful protest is now
taking a turn for the worse.
'Few unidentifiable women'
'draped in burkas, have suddenly
emerged out of Halal Designs.'
Churails!

- She has lost her mind.
You're mad!
Get the fuck out from here!
You asshole!
You wanna mess with me?
You can see how many
people behind me
are hitting each other!
Look at them fight. - Ma'am,
why are you causing so much terror?
This is our home.
And it's our duty to
defend our house.
Come here now!
Who else wants a piece of this?
Who else?
Let's go! Let's go!
- Let's move!
Hey, go away!
Step back.
Batool, ma'am
Our public is hot-blooded.
They will boil for a few days
and eventually simmer down.
Until then,
you should put the shutter down.
And hire a security company.
'Why are you causing so much terror?
- This is our house.'
'And it is our duty to defend it.'
Oh, thank God!
Are you kids okay?
We're fine.
- Where's mommy?
She'll be back home soon.
Grace, can you get the meal ready?
Sir,
there's a mob of people outside.
I know.
Ifti
Talk to Jugnu.
I'll talk to Sara.
It's gone too far.
If we hire security for our
protection that means we lost.
We don't have to prove
anything to anyone.
You've to admit, it was a bad
idea to reopen shop so soon.
You don't show a sheep
how to be a wolf
and then force it to
be a sheep again!
For the first time in life,
we are having so much fun.
And to say no to fun is a sin!
- You guys have lost your mind.
We will guard ourselves In turns.
Yes,
tonight Babli, Dilbar and I'll stay.
Tomorrow, Shams
- Babli won't stay.
I'll stay! - The inspector was
also - You don't say a word.
I'll stay too.
- It's not fucking safe!
I will stay the night!
Fine!
That's it!
You will not stay here.
Don't behave like a man with me.
Whore!
Do you love me?
What sort of love doesn't give you
the courage to stay away from me?
I don't give a fuck about courage!
You get scared without me, silly!
Yes, that's because I've never
seen anything without you.
Never done anything without you.
Now I will.
- Really?
You've the nerve to try it?
Show me!
You don't think I've something
going on with Munni, do you?
Get lost! Go die!
- I swear to God
It's nothing like that.
I'm going to live and
die in your arms.
Right?
I'll be back in an hour.
I'll call, keep the shutters down.
- Yes, boss.
We can leave all this behind
and start a new life.
But just boxing and I,
might not be enough for you.
Don't say that.
It'll be enough.
I mean, almost enough.
All of you've this itch
to conquer the world.
And I'm crazy about that itch.
Why can't all men be like you?
If everyone was like me
wouldn't you floozies
go out of business!
Be quiet!
Hello, uncle.
What brings you here?
You don't return my
calls or visit me.
What am I supposed to do?
What is all this ruckus for?
There's no ruckus.
There is a shop.
It's just a bunch of us trying
to live our lives.
Shouldn't be that difficult,
should it?
Hmm!
That's the thing, you know.
I mean
Don't get me wrong, I love women.
No one loves women the
way I love women.
But you
Not just you, all of you.
You've got a thing about notions.
You know?
The notion of
wanting more,
being more, deserving more.
All of this gets inside you.
And reason just flies
out of the window.
I'll leave some guards outside.
No, thank you.
I won't keep your guards.
Since reason has already
flown out of the window.
Visit your father.
He is not keeping well these days.
You visiting him is enough.
We won't let them go!
We need a verdict against them!
We're not going to leave them!
We won't stop! Give us answers!
We need a verdict! We need answers!
Madam?
We want an answer."
We will decide. We need answers.
The night this girl is
talking about
I'd an emergency appointment with
my gynaecologist, Dr Hansotia.
Jamil was with me.
You can check the clinic records.
ow is that possible? Why were we
not told about this earlier?
If I can reach that girl through
the media - Be quiet.
I would like to request her
to stop harassing my family and take
back the false accusations.
Where are the kids?
- Oh thank God, you made it!
Where are the kids?
Since afternoon, there's been a
mob - Where are the kids?
The kids are inside.
They're asleep. They're fine.
I have risked all your lives!
I really don't know what
I was thinking. - Hey!
I don't know.
- Hey! It's okay.
Our guards are outside.
I've made a few calls.
Everything will settle down by
tomorrow. - I'll take care of you.
I'm just here to change.
I've to go back.
No, no, no, you can't!
Haven't you seen the situation
outside? They're out for your blood.
They're waiting for me, Jamil.
- No.
If you go back
- Please, I've to go.
Do you understand
- At least think of the kids!
Fine, I'll just call them.
It's fine.
We are here, we will manage.
You rest.
Okay? Bye.
Jugnu boss?
No, Sara.
She said she can't get
out of her house.
You like Jugnu a lot, right?
Does everyone know?
Yes.
Love has made you stylish.
Any fucker can change
his outer appearance.
But what's inside
What can we do about that?
But a man is allowed to dream.
So
Let's dream!
Oh, I was wondering when
you'd show your face.
You lied.
Your husband was not with you.
You went to the doctor
alone that night.
Believe me.
All I've got is humiliation
by going public.
And humiliation is all you'll get.
You can open your filthy mouth to
the media as much as you want
but they'll only print cartoons
about you in the papers.
You'll be discredited,
called a whore, made a mockery of.
You, your family, your job
will all go up in smoke.
Why are you doing this?
Because I'll go to any
length for my husband.
Now go and sit on your bike
And leave for good.
Oh, fuck!
Babli!
- Babli, open the door. Babli!
Babli!
Oh my, Sheila. Sexy superstar!
- Babli!
Babli, hurry up and open the door!
Babli!
Babli, please open the door!
Babli, come out, let's go!
Babli!
Dilbar, back door!
Babli!
Dilbar! Dilbar!
"Lock the door baby,
and awaken the desire in me."
"Quench your thirst with me.
Oh, my loverboy!"
Oh, fuck!
Munni!
Fuck!
- Babli!
Babli!
Babli!
Babli, get up! Babli!
Babli, open your eyes!
Babli, wake up! Babli, are you okay?
Sheila and I were flatmates.
She was beautiful.
So she kept getting work.
Stage shows, TV series.
Have you watched the movie 'Jawaani
Kahin Nahi Jaani'?
There was an item song
in the movie
'Lover Boy'.
Sheila was a background
dancer in it.
She looked great in it.
Anyway
it has been a month now
And I have not heard from her.
The agency has no answers.
Her entire stuff is at our place.
Talk to Sheila's family.
They don't have a clue either.
I don't know how I can help you.
Ma'am
You've helped women before.
Sheila told me.
Please find her.
Please.
Sorry, there's nothing I can do.
"Who should I discuss?"
"This issue with?"
"Who should I discuss?"
"This issue with?"
"Don't you meet?"
"Don't you meet?"
How bad is it?
Bad!
Are you coming?
Me?
No.
Jugnu, this was
I was meant to be there. I was
How will we get through this?
"Why don't you assuage?"
"My feelings."
I don't know, Sara.
I don't know.
"I have just one talent."
"I have just one talent."
"Annoy everyone you meet!"
"Annoy everyone you meet!"
"Keep meeting like this"
"So"
"The height of betrayal.."
"is this."
"Don't you meet?"
"Don't you meet?"
'You think you've figured us out'
'but you haven't.'
'We've been in hiding,
far away from your rejections,'
'accusations and judgments.'
'Our bodies, our minds'
'our desires'
'Hiding it all from you.'
My daughter.
I need to find her.
'And now if we break
down the walls,'
'pull back the curtains'
'And reveal everything to you'
'Will your fragile ego,
be ready for our rebellion?'
