Voice Over: Run for cover, they’ve neared us.
Narsimma: Chalo, have you gone mad or what?
Renuka: Won’t you stay back for my sake..
Narsimma: Come on Renu, it’s not the way to force the issue.
Renuka: Don’t say nakko, baava. I want to love you and live with you.
[Sound of a hail of bullets and approaching foot steps. Renuka holds Narsimma tightly in her embrace even as he tries to wriggle out.]
Renuka: I want to bear your child baava.
[But as the Greyhounds come near, Narsimma wriggles himself out of Renuka’s grip and tries to drag her but she continues to hold him. In the end, he manages to escape and the Greyhounds go after him in hot pursuit. A crestfallen Renuka sits still on the ground.]
[Enter: Captain Ranjit Kapoor of the Greyhounds as the gun shots cease.]
Captain Kapoor: Sorry Renu-ji, he’s dead.
Renuka: Oh, what about others?
Captain Kapoor: Well, they all escaped.
Renuka: Oh, if only I could have prevailed over him.
Captain Kapoor: We understand your hurt and appreciate your sacrifice madam.
Renuka: Did he have any last words for me?
Captain Kapoor: He begged us not to harm you in any way.
Renuka: It’s a consolation that he died without feeling let down.
Captain Kapoor: Don’t we know Renu-ji that you’ve chosen it as a last resort.
Renuka: Oh, if only I was able to persuade him. But what to do when he was so distrustful of you guys. See how fake encounters discourage change of heart.
Captain Kapoor: That’s sad indeed, but Renu-ji we too are human, after all. Given that we’re senselessly targeted, no denying that we too tend to be insensitive. Don’t think that I’m trying to justify the fake encounters. I’m only putting them in the proper perspective.
Renuka: How I wish his death makes both sides introspect.
Captain Kapoor: I’m sure this poignant tale would. Well, I’ve orders to free you.
Renuka: Thanks for keeping your word. [She pauses as if to know his name.]
Captain Kapoor: I’m Captain Ranjit Kapoor.
Renuka: Well Captain, I’ve better things to do than rotting in the jail.
Captain Kapoor: And those two millions will be yours as well.
Renuka: Are you implying that I betrayed my man for booty?
Captain Kapoor: Oh no, Renu-ji, don’t we know, you chose to risk his life to end his mayhem.
Renuka: Well, that’s the only solace I’ve to my sense of loss.
Captain Kapoor: Just reconsider Renu-ji that money may be handy to help the needy.
