Marzi (2020) s01e06 Episode Script
The Collision Course
Dad, what happened?
Our problems are far from over, Ayaan.
- What do you mean?
Now, Inspector Rashmi
is accusing me of
She said that I raped her.
She has joined hands with Sameera.
But Miss Sameera didn't have any proof
to substantiate her claims.
That is why Inspector Rashmi
is trying to fabricate the proof.
Dad, speak to her boss.
They can't keep harassing us like this.
Write to a senior officer.
Ayaan, it would be of no use.
Do you see how unlucky I am?
That night, when I was alone at home,
you had gone out with your friends.
Everyone will call me a liar.
Ayaan,
will you help me?
Please tell them that you
saw me at home that night.
Do you want me to lie to the cops, dad?
It's not a lie, Ayaan. It's the truth.
Sometimes, truth needs to be told
in oblique ways. But it's still the truth.
Please, Ayaan.
They will take me away.
They'll take me far away from you, Ayaan.
Please.
I don't know what to do.
Dad.
No, Ayaan.
What am I doing?
Have I gone crazy?
Am I really asking you to lie?
Will I make you lie to the police?
I should be ashamed of myself.
Do one thing, Ayaan. Go away for a while.
Go and live with your grandma.
I'll handle this on my own.
I'll deal with it.
You shouldn't get involved in this, dear.
You should go.
You are not alone, dad.
I I am with you.
Dad, I'll do whatever it takes
to get you out of trouble.
What do you think?
Will Anurag get caught this time around?
You leave that up to me.
No criminal can escape
the law for too long.
As soon as he is caught, please
The first thing I'll do is
come and give you the good news.
Sameera,
believe me. Please.
Ma'am, your order, please.
Hi!
- Hi.
Come. Sit.
- Thank you.
Was it a long journey from Chandigarh?
I'm used to travelling.
You know that I could have
come to Delhi, right?
But in that case, I wouldn't be able
to enjoy Shimla's tourist sites.
By the way, tell me something.
Are all the tourist guides in this town
as good-looking as you?
Are all tourists from Delhi
this good-looking? - Well, I am.
Let's order something to eat and drink.
Because we Punjabis can't have
one without the other.
Kabir,
I'll settle the bill today
if you don't mind.
So, order the most expensive item
on the menu for me.
And beer.
- Sure.
Excuse me.
Dad!
- Hello!
Oh my God, what is this?
There are stains all over.
Go and change.
Tia was asking
when I'd be coming back home.
Please, Shaan.
She needs both of us.
Even I needed you, Isha.
But my needs have changed now.
Dad!
I have got to go.
Why? Has nobody else
rejected your flowers before?
Many have.
- Really?
The problem with flowers is
that once they dedicate
their life to someone,
they can't live without them.
- Oh God!
Kabir and romance!
I've been this way since I was a child.
When was the last time
you were serious in life?
When India won the World Cup, in 1983
What happened?
Do you know him?
Isn't he that guy?
Anurag?
Did they not arrest him twice?
Did they not find anything?
The entire Shimla Police Force
raided his house.
They searched every corner,
but they didn't find anything.
You must be feeling so angry.
There's one thing I've understood.
Anger doesn't punish the oppressor.
Anger punishes the oppressed.
I suffered a lot for three months
because of my anger.
But now, it's gone.
Come on. Let's have a drink.
Anurag, we have known
each other for one month.
Do you still think you can change my mind?
Well
I can try, at least.
Next time, I'll call you home
and tie you up.
People always run away
after they try the food prepared by me.
Anurag!
So, how about dinner at my place tomorrow?
Okay.
Bye.
- See you.
Charu?
Sameera Chauhan.
Listen.
Anurag has told me everything about you.
And despite that, you agreed to meet me.
What did he tell you?
- That you'd tell me your story
It's not my story. It's the truth.
If you don't believe me,
these are Falak's and Rashmi's
phone numbers.
You can call them and talk to them.
He likes women like you.
Strong and independent.
Women whom he can control.
Women who
Women who he enjoys raping.
If possible, please save yourself.
Hi, Charu.
What did Sameera say?
Isn't it amazing, Rashmi?
I'm sure that this baby will be a girl.
By the way,
I'll make do even if it's a boy.
Where are you lost?
No
You're leaving in two days.
So, I was thinking about that.
Even though I don't live with you,
I can tell when you're lying.
Tell me. What's the matter?
What happened?
What happened?
Tell me.
- I was raped.
Anurag Saraswat did it in this very house.
He mixed the drug in my drink.
I was unconscious.
I don't remember anything.
But he has done it, Ajay.
Anurag has
What do you want?
- I want to talk to you, Sameera.
What else could I want?
I know you don't sleep so early.
Come on.
Do you ever remember me, Sameera?
When you're lying on your bed
all by yourself?
Go away from here.
- I will go.
I'll go the day you leave me alone.
How about we both stop interfering
in each other's lives?
Who do you think you are, Anurag?
Do you know what you are?
You are a worm. A worm!
Sooner or later, the worm is bound
to be trampled on and crushed.
Do you remember that night, Sameera? I do.
Your room Your bed
And on that bed,
a light-blue printed blanket.
Your soft pillows.
They were new, right?
They still had the tag on.
And resting your head
on those pillows was you.
Quietly waiting for me.
Consenting to every move of mine.
I've seen it so many times.
Whenever I miss you,
I just watch it.
Bye, Sameera. Good night.
Sameera?
Come in.
I spoke to his girlfriend.
Oh God, Sameera
- What could have I done?
You need to stay away
from Anurag Saraswat!
It's been three months.
Nobody is doing anything about it.
Should I stay silent when he is
doing it to yet another woman?
Listen. We're waiting for him
to make a mistake.
Just one mistake.
But if you end up making
a mistake before he does,
the three-month-long wait will go in vain.
I think he has shot videos of all of us.
What?
Last night,
whatever he said
He remembered everything
about that night.
He remembered every detail.
Right from the print on my blanket
to the tag on my pillow.
How can one recall so many things
in such little time?
He told me
that whenever he misses me, he watches it.
I'm sure he has recorded our videos
- Sameera. Listen.
The police searched his house,
his phone, his work computer, everything.
They found nothing.
- He's smarter than them.
Please try to understand.
Men like Anurag like to be in control.
Why don't you
- Sameera, please!
Please.
You don't have to do anything!
Please stay away from Anurag Saraswat.
Otherwise, it would mess everything up.
Charu.
Rashmi.
- I want to talk to you.
Tell me. It's still your case.
I just spoke to Sameera Chauhan.
She claims that Anurag
records all his rapes.
And that he has all those videos.
Last night, Anurag went
to Sameera's house.
I know that.
Because I had told him
that Sameera had met me.
Why?
Because mistakes are made
when the temper is hot.
And plans are made when the head is cool.
We need Anurag's temper to be hot.
By the way, a constable in plain clothes
was keeping a watch on Sameera's house.
I'm afraid that if we don't act quickly,
Sameera will make a mistake.
Charu, we have given three months
to this operation.
But now, we can't wait
for even three more days.
We need to do something soon.
Sooner than tonight?
- What do you mean?
Just wait for some time, Rashmi.
Just a little while.
Sahil.
Dr Sahil.
Yes?
- Dr Mamta wants to see you.
I'm going to change.
Sir, she says that it's urgent.
Okay.
How are you?
Did you not miss your sister
for three months?
Are you still angry?
Sameera,
please don't get involved
with Anurag again.
I was always involved, Isha.
If you remain stuck up on it,
you will never be able to move on in life.
You did everything you could.
Have I lost the right
to say these things to you?
Thanks for this.
I miss you, Sameera.
- I miss you too.
You know I can do
anything for you, right? Anything.
Do you really hate me so much?
I don't hate you.
It's just that I can't trust you anymore.
Thanks.
Nitin, meet me at my house. Now.
Hi.
- Hi.
Please come in.
Do you smell something burning?
It took me six hours to cook!
And then another half an hour
to throw it away
and order food from outside.
And here is the result of my efforts.
Nice!
By the way, did you throw away
your phone along with the food?
What do you mean? - I was trying
to call you since morning.
Ah!
- Had you not emailed me
Think about it! In my own hospital,
from my own locker!
Let the thief come to me
with his heart problems.
I'll teach him a lesson then.
You know, I think it was better
in the old days.
Nobody could cancel plans.
Because once it was done, it was done.
Even I hate cancelling plans.
Me too.
Nice.
Would you like some wine?
Sure.
- Great.
By the way, your house is really nice.
It's the people that make a house.
Charu,
are you alright?
Yes, of course. Why?
You seem a little anxious.
Oh. That's just some work stress.
Work stress!
- Yes.
There's only one way
to get rid of work stress.
Wine.
Cheers.
Wait. Actually,
I haven't had enough water since morning.
May I have a glass of warm water?
Of course.
- Thanks.
Water.
- Thanks.
Nice and warm.
Charu, what's in your bag?
I'm sorry?
What's your plan?
Anurag, what are you talking about?
You took a sample of the wine
in a syringe, right?
So, what's your next move?
'One minute, Anurag.'
'I have to make a phone call.'
'Actually, work has been
really stressful.'
'Actually, I have a headache.'
'Can we have this dinner next week?
I need to go home tonight.'
Was that your plan?
Stay away from me.
Why?
Are you scared?
If I send out a signal,
the police will be here in a few minutes.
Get out of my way.
- Who's stopping you?
By the way, it's of no use.
You won't find anything.
It's just wine.
But it would've been a lot of fun.
Shit.
Shit!
Sorry for calling you here
on such short notice.
I'm glad that you called me. Thank you.
I've heard that they extended
your suspension by three more months.
Who cares about the suspension?
I'm just using it as an excuse
to read books. Murder mysteries.
Give me the phone.
What's next?
I don't know. My techie friend said
that we could use this software
to find out the pin to unlock the phone.
But these techies are
Completely trustworthy! One second.
And it's unlocked.
Sameera,
are you looking for something specific
in Anurag's phone?
I think he records videos
of his rapes. - What?
Do you have any idea where
he might have stored the videos?
Someplace where he could
watch them frequently?
Jail is the right place for
people like Anurag Saraswat.
If not the jail, then the grave.
Okay. Thanks for informing me.
What happened?
They couldn't catch Anurag.
Rashmi
I will catch him.
This attempt didn't work,
but there must be another way.
Sameera.
- Yes?
Did Anurag ever mention
someone named Lakshmi?
No. Why?
- It may not mean anything,
but a certain Lakshmi
has sent Anurag a message.
'The key is in a box outside the house.'
This was written
one day after your incident.
When Anurag's investigation was on.
Is there an address?
I'll call Rashmi.
Shit.
Shit.
Sameera.
- Yes?
Whatever happened between Isha and me
I'm really sorry for that.
So am I.
Hello. Who are you?
- Hello.
My name is Sameera. I'm Anurag's friend.
Are you Lakshmi?
- Yes.
Actually, Anurag has sent me.
Can I come in for two minutes?
Okay. Come in.
Anurag's friends
never come here. Right, Lakshmi?
Yes. They never come here.
Actually, Anurag sent me here
to pick up some of his things.
He has kept some things here.
Yes. This way.
I won't take long.
- Okay.
Yes. Thank you.
Did you find what you were looking for?
- Yes, I found it.
Actually, I'm in a hurry, so
Thank you so much. Thank you.
Hello, Anurag.
Miss Chauhan.
I'm sorry. I wasn't on duty.
- Did you see the video?
I couldn't get myself to see it
There's everyone. Me, Rashmi
Fifteen more people. Fifteen.
Seventeen.
And in one case,
we can see his face clearly.
The magistrate has seen it.
Now, he can't get away.
I've heard that before.
I don't believe you.
- Miss Chauhan.
The police are on the way to his house.
It's all over.
'It's all over.'
Is Anurag Saraswat home?
Why?
- We have a warrant for his arrest.
No. He's not home.
'Shimla's famous doctor Anurag Saraswat'
'was recently accused of 17 rapes.'
'He is currently absconding
from the police.'
'Until today, Dr Anurag Saraswat was
acquitted in all the cases against him'
'because of the lack of evidence.'
'But now, the police say
that they have very strong evidence'
'and that it's impossible
for Anurag Saraswat to get away.'
'We have heard that this pervert
even preyed on a female police officer.'
'The police have stated'
'that Anurag has been committing crimes
over a long period of time.'
'and that he is very dangerous.'
'If anyone has any information
about his whereabouts,'
'please inform your nearby police station
or the Shimla police.'
Our problems are far from over, Ayaan.
- What do you mean?
Now, Inspector Rashmi
is accusing me of
She said that I raped her.
She has joined hands with Sameera.
But Miss Sameera didn't have any proof
to substantiate her claims.
That is why Inspector Rashmi
is trying to fabricate the proof.
Dad, speak to her boss.
They can't keep harassing us like this.
Write to a senior officer.
Ayaan, it would be of no use.
Do you see how unlucky I am?
That night, when I was alone at home,
you had gone out with your friends.
Everyone will call me a liar.
Ayaan,

What am I doing?
Have I gone crazy?

I'll deal with it.

I I am with you.
Dad, I'll do whatever it takes

The police searched his house,

- He's smarter than them.
Please try to understand.
Men like Anurag like to be in control.
Why don't you

Please.
You don't have to do anything!
Please stay away from Anurag Saraswat.
Otherwise, it would mess everything up.

Sahil.
Dr Sahil.
Yes?
- Dr Mamta wants to see you.
I'm going to change.
Sir, she says that it's urgent.
Okay.
How are you?
Did you not miss your sister
for three months?
Are you still angry?
Sameera,
please don't get involved
with Anurag again.
I was always involved, Isha.
If you remain stuck up on it,
you will never be able to move on in life.
You did everything you could.
Have I lost the right
to say these things to you?
Thanks for this.
I miss you, Sameera.
- I miss you too.
You know I can do
anything for you, right? Anything.
Do you really hate me so much?
I don't hate you.
It's just that I can't trust you anymore.
Thanks.
Nitin, meet me at my house. Now.

Oh. That's just some work stress.
Work stress!
- Yes.

to get rid of work stress.
Wine.
Cheers.
Wait. Actually,
I haven't had enough water since morning.
May I have a glass of warm water?
Of course.

Charu, what's in your bag?
I'm sorry?
What's your plan?
Anurag, what are you talking about?
You took a sample of the wine
in a syringe, right?
So, what's your next move?
'One minute, Anurag.'
'I have to make a phone call.'
'Actually, work has been
really stressful.'
'Actually, I have a headache.'
'Can we have this dinner next week?

Sorry for calling you here
on such short notice.
I'm glad that you called me. Thank you.
I've heard that they extended
your suspension by three more months.
Who cares about the suspension?
I'm just using it as an excuse
to read books. Murder mysteries.
Give me the phone.
What's next?
I don't know. My techie friend said
that we could use this software
to find out the pin to unlock the phone.
But these techies are
Completely trustworthy! One second.
And it's unlocked.
Sameera,
are you looking for something specific
in Anurag's phone?
I think he records videos
of his rapes. - What?
Do you have any idea where
he might have stored the videos?
Someplace where he could
watch them frequently?
Jail is the right place for
people like Anurag Saraswat.
If not the jail, then the grave.
Okay. Thanks for informing me.
What happened?
They couldn't catch Anurag.
Rashmi
I will catch him.
This attempt didn't work,
but there must be another way.
Sameera.
- Yes?
Did Anurag ever mention
someone named Lakshmi?
No. Why?
- It may not mean anything,
but a certain Lakshmi
has sent Anurag a message.
'The key is in a box outside the house.'
This was written
one day after your incident.
When Anurag's investigation was on.
Is there an address?
I'll call Rashmi.
Shit.
Shit.
Sameera.
- Yes?
Whatever happened between Isha and me
I'm really sorry for that.
So am I.
Hello. Who are you?
- Hello.
My name is Sameera. I'm Anurag's friend.
Are you Lakshmi?
- Yes.
Actually, Anurag has sent me.
Can I come in for two minutes?
Okay. Come in.
Anurag's friends
never come here. Right, Lakshmi?
Yes. They never come here.
Actually, Anurag sent me here
to pick up some of his things.
He has kept some things here.
Yes. This way.
I won't take long.
- Okay.
Yes. Thank you.
Did you find what you were looking for?
- Yes, I found it.
Actually, I'm in a hurry, so
Thank you so much. Thank you.
Hello, Anurag.
Miss Chauhan.
I'm sorry. I wasn't on duty.
- Did you see the video?
I couldn't get myself to see it
There's everyone. Me, Rashmi
Fifteen more people. Fifteen.
Seventeen.
And in one case,
we can see his face clearly.
The magistrate has seen it.
Now, he can't get away.
I've heard that before.
I don't believe you.
- Miss Chauhan.
The police are on the way to his house.
It's all over.
'It's all over.'
Is Anurag Saraswat home?
Why?
- We have a warrant for his arrest.
No. He's not home.
'Shimla's famous doctor Anurag Saraswat'
'was recently accused of 17 rapes.'
'He is currently absconding
from the police.'
'Until today, Dr Anurag Saraswat was
acquitted in all the cases against him'
'because of the lack of evidence.'
'But now, the police say
that they have very strong evidence'
'and that it's impossible
for Anurag Saraswat to get away.'
'We have heard that this pervert
even preyed on a female police officer.'
'The police have stated'
'that Anurag has been committing crimes
over a long period of time.'
'and that he is very dangerous.'
'If anyone has any information
about his whereabouts,'
'please inform your nearby police station
or the Shimla police.'
