Satyameva Jayate 2 (सत्यमेव जयते 2)

To put a stop to ever-increasing corruption,

the legislative assembly votes for a new anti-corruption bill today.

And waging a war against corruption is

our state's beloved Home Minister, Satya Balram Azad.

The day our country is free from all kinds of corruption and malpractices,

is the day I'll start celebrating our Independence Day.

- Good morning, sir. - Good morning.

After you.

Good morning, Mr. Yashwant.

I hope the opposition will not oppose this anticorruption bill.

Your father had the same attitude.

He too wanted to put an end to corruption.

But sadly, he met his end instead.

Don't let that Satyamev Jayate emblem fool you,

because the truth isn't going to triumph today.

Not just opposition leaders like me,

but the people from your coalition party too will vote against you.

Everyone, please settle down.

The house is in session.

As proposed by the Honourable Home Minister...

The Anti-Corruption Bill Number 3381C is in session now.

All those in favour say aye.

- Aye. - Aye.

All those not in favour say nay.

- Nay. - Nay.

Nay.

Nay.

Bill is not passed.

Mr. Speaker, please tell the Home Minister not to be disheartened by this.

This is what you call... Democracy.

That's why our country is great.

Silence.

Please maintain discipline.

Honourable Home Minister,

you have two minutes to address the assembly.

Roads are riddled with potholes.

Collapsing bridges keep exposing fallen souls.

You got 100 bucks, you got enough to buy a traffic cop.

If your name is Khan, then you belong to a terrorist clan.

Yet they claim that our country is great.

Politicians use martyrs to seek votes.

Every leader wants credit for Pilot Abhinandan's return.

Starving farmers keep hanging themselves in their homes.

Yet they claim that our country is great.

People were shocked when Tictok was banned.

But when it comes to rapes, they say I don't give a damn.

What's trending on Twitter is what's on our youth's minds.

Who cares about corruption, anyway?

Everybody's busy checking their Instagram stories and wasting time.

Yet they claim that our country is great.

Home Minister Satya Balram Azad had to face an embarrassing defeat today.

Let's go live to our political editor Rashmi to find out more.

Ma'am, you voted against this bill.

How difficult was it to make this decision?

Tell me something.

If you see two bills lying in front of you.

A tenner and a c-note.

Which one would you pick?

Of course, the c-note.

I would pick both of them.

The tenner and the c-note.

The one who voted against him in the assembly was a politician.

The one who proudly applauded his speech was a wife.

Doctor...

Any change?

You ask me the same question every day, Satya.

Your mother has been in a coma for 25 years because of that dreadful incident.

I don't think she will ever come out of it.

I won't try to wipe away your tears.

It is sometimes better to just let them flow.

Do you know why our country is still great?

There are still some mothers left here

who give birth to men like you,

who always fight for the truth.

They lose, but they never stop.

And no matter what happens, they don't break.

Dad, nothing except our currency changed in the past 20 years.

The poor are still getting poorer.

Democracy is still being taken for granted.

I am done losing my near and dear ones.

I vow to you,

now, either corruption ends or the corrupt meet their end.

Don't forget to pray, okay?

Okay, Mom.

Let's hurry before they close the temple for the day.

Hail Goddess!

Priest.

Sheetal.

Seek blessings from Mother Goddess

and pray that you do well in exams.

Shouldn't I first take the blessings of my mother

who has worked so hard to give me a better life?

Shee...

My baby.

- Let's go. - Yo stumpy,

- how much did you make today? - My exams are in the afternoon, Mom.

Don't worry.

- Not much, Dilawar-bhai. - Why so less, huh?

Sheetal! - Mom!

Sheetal...

Sheetal... Sheetal... please drive faster.

Please drive faster.

Fulfil our demands!

Stop, stop, stop.

Fulfil our demands!

Doctor... - Fulfil our demands! - Doctor...

Doctor...

My daughter fell down the stairs. She is bleeding profusely.

- Please do something. - Hey.

- Yes... - Sir?

Step back.

Please don't do this.

- We came all the way here for treatment. - We are on a strike, ma'am.

Your daughter won't receive any treatment here.

If you want to save your daughter's life,

you better rush her to a private hospital.

Stop creating a scene in front of the media.

What?

I am creating a scene?

You are the one putting my daughter's life at risk.

We put you on the same pedestal as God,

because you can save lives.

When God doesn't have a right to strike,

who gave you that right, huh?

Mom!

Sheetal!

Sheetal, my baby, open your eyes.

I'll take you to another hospital.

Do you have some water, mister?

Keep your eyes open, dear.

Water?

Does anyone have water?

Sheetal, my baby?

Sheetal?

Open your eyes, dear.

I'll take you to another hospital.

Sheetal!

Sheetal!

Sheetal, my baby!

Sheetal!

Please God, don't be so cruel.

Sheetal... Open your eyes, dear.

My daughter is dead.

She is dead.

My daughter is dead.

She is dead.

Doctor.

Just like I couldn't save my daughter's life today,

there will come a day when nobody will be able to save your life.

Remember, sooner rather than later, death will come for you.

Well done, Dr. Awasthi.

Your strike will sign the death certificate of this city's Government Hospital.

I, Dean Agnihotri, will make millions,

but starting my private hospital at its place.

You...

Hey you, why did you stop here?

Where are you going?

Hey bozo, I am talking to you.

You... Hey bozo!

Where are you going?

I am talking to you.

This is not the time to visit a temple.

I am talking to you.

Can't you hear me?

Do you think I am crazy?

You...!

The police want to know my wrist size,

as they prepare to arrest me.

Hangman wants to know my neck size,

as he prepares to hang me.

And the corrupt get scared of my guts when I beat them down to size.

Shit-scared.

Hey you, where do you think you are going?

All the doctors are on strike.

He won't receive any treatment here.

Go.

Take him to a private hospital.

Fact of life:

You reap what you sow.

What goes around comes around.

'This killer has proven that this too could be a way to end corruption.'

'Our country has got a new hero.'

After Dr. Awasthi's shocking and heart-wrenching death,

other doctors

and the government have decided to meet halfway.

Jyoti Shrivastav,

who was never in the favor of this strike too...

Ward boy.

As you can see, DCP Subodh Upadhayaya just came here with his task force.

No criminal can escape the law when I am in charge.

I'll start wearing bangles if I am unable to handcuff them.

Dadasaheb had promised to put an end to corruption.

That's the reason people put us in power and made me the CM.

It's our responsibility to put an end to

corruption and not of some vigilante killer.

We will fulfil our responsibility.

I will fulfil this promise and win the elections once again.

Perhaps then, we might be able to convince you to join our party.

In your party, my identity would have been restricted to being your daughter.

Now I can go head to head with both, my father and my husband.
