84.

EXT. BITTU’S READYMADE SHOP

A few CCTV cameras are out front pointed at the street, in a

couple of angles.

CCTV ROOM

A screens plays the footage from a camera mounted outside.

Vicky and Gayatri are watching it carefully.

CCTV FOOTAGE:

Playing in fast forward. Empty street. An occasional

passerby. A stray dog.

At around 3 AM, a lone figure enters the street. Goes to the

first wall. And starts wiping off.

GAYATRI

There!

The video plays at normal speed.

The figure in the frame rubs wall after wall, as Vicky and

Gayatri stare, still unable to make out who it is.

Finally the guy comes close enough and turns this side.

VICKY

Pause.

Video pauses.

VICKY

Shit!

The figure in the video is Jana.

SHARE AUTO, OUTSKIRTS ROAD - DAY

A large share auto -- the kind of rickshaw that can squeeze

in about six or seven people chugs along the road.

Jana’s hands are bandaged now. Bittu rambles on --

BITTU

Shit, what’s happening in this

town! It’s weird that you came

back.. And now two dozen people

have gone overnight!

Jana is not listening. He seems lost.

BITTU

That Stree has gone mental! And how

come as soon as you came back, so

many are missing??
