A peaceful day has embraced the people of Mumbai where they all got engaged with their daily activities to begin their day.

The children who are going to school began to get ready for their schools. The working people both male and female also began their preparation to get ready to go to their work places.

The homemakers who are the backbone of a household started their work to manage their homes and dear ones. So that they can be on time.

And one such household is Jamwal house which consist of Father, Mother and their loving son who now goes to a college.

Their lives are just like any normal middle class family who are trying their hard to maintain their good life in this city which never sleeps.

Anmol the son of this Jamwal family is getting ready for his college and after getting ready he picked up his bag and an apple and went out of the house as his parents have gone to the place of a relative.

Going out of his house, he went straight towards the railway station from where he boarded the local train and went towards another area of this city where his college.

Leaving the train and the station Anmol met his friends right outside the station who were waiting for him and then all of them went to their college.

Reaching at the college they all went to attend their classes after after attending all the three classes they had, they all decided to went into an open café.

And soon they all reached at the café near their college where they all took a table and ordered their food while having some good chats and Masti between them.

Sid: "Abe Anmol chutiye did you take the notes of glasses(referring their professor) ?"

Anmol: "Yup. All noted chutiye."

Raman: "Okay now tell me all set for the Goa trip ?"

Anmol: "All set."

Sid: "All set."

Raghav: "No I will not come."

Sid: "Abe chutiye what happened with you now ?"

Anmol: "I know it must be Ritika."

Raghav: "No parents didn't give me the permission."

Raman: "Yeah like we will believe. It must be Ritika. Anmol is right. You just stay hidden behind Ritika. Fattu(coward)."

Sid and Anmol: "Fattu. Fattu..."

Sid, Anmol and Raman just teased their friend Raghav as he declined for the Goa trip which they all have planned to visit soon.

The three of them teased Raghav using the reason that his girlfriend Ritika must have forbid him to visit Goa along with calling fattu which is an Indian slang word for coward.

Although Raghav didn't showed it on his face but still felt a bit disappointmen with his friends especially Anmol who is his best friend to call him a coward like that.

But as this fun masti went on between all of them, just outside of the café a black suv stopped right in front of the café.

And from that suv, a man wearing a black overcoat, black t-shirt and black pants with long hairs got out of the car and entered inside the café.

Seeing that man, the waiters, owner and other people at café became very shocked and terrified because this man is very dangerous underworld gangster who has many crimes on his name in the police records.

And soon that man took a seat for himself and ordered chai(tea) for himself. An within a few moments a waiter with severing hands brought the cup of chai for him and placed it on his table safely.

And then while taking the sip of his chai, that gangster took out his gun and put it on the table which scared the people more.

Anmol and his friends also knew about this gangster and all of them are scared as well. But at this moment Raghav who is angry at his friends looked at them and said,

Raghav: "You all called me a fattu right ? Let me show you now who is the actual fattu."

Saying these words, he discretely clicked some photos of that gangster and then showing his friends he sent those photos to the Mumbai police department with the exact location of the café and a message to hurry up.

The photos and message immediately got received by the Mumbai police and they all immediately circulated it with all police officers and informed the police officers who were nearby the café to immediately raid at that location.

Back at the café the gangster took his own time finishing up the chai and after finishing his drink, he paid for it and then holding his gun in his hand began to move around the café customers.

Moving all around the corners and customers, the gangster stopped right next to the table of Anmol and his friends.

And then he put his hand on the shoulder of Sid and began to tell a story to them...

Gangster: "The smell of youth and the passion of youth is really good. Let me tell you a story of youth. Twenty years ago at this same café two young boys same as of your age. Those two boys had big dreams to achieve great heights in the underworld. That day the gang boss of those two boys put a gun before them and said that anyone of them had to kill the other one. One of the two boys hesitated in his heart thinking how could he kill his friend but the friend of that boy didn't hesitate and took the gun ready to shoot his friend. This scene broke the heart of that boy as he saw his friend betraying him. But then before the friend could pull the trigger, that boy took the knife and fork placed on the table and immediately stabbed in the eyes of his friend which made his friend to lose the gun and then that boy took the gun and shoot his friend in his head right between his eyebrows. Do you know who that boy was who killed his friend for his betrayal..."

All of these friends looked at each other feeling very scared and seeing them like this that gangster chuckled a little and then he said, "That boy is me who killed his own only best friend with his own hands in this café."

Hearing his story, Anmol asked him the reason for which he told them this story to which that gangster replied, "Because today is the death anniversary of that friend of mine and today someone else will go to accompany him."

Saying these words he put his gun in the heart of Raghav and looked at him while saying, "You could have become a great photographer. But so sad today is your last day."

Saying this that gangster grabbed the collar of Raghav's shirt and pulled him from his chair and dropped him on the ground and then he put his one foot on the chest of Raghav while pointing his gun towards Raghav's head.

"Police siren..."

Just at that moment the police sirens began to create noise inside the café as the police officers surrounded the entire café.

Seeing the police that gangster pulled up Raghav and made him a shield for himself. Watching all of this Anmol and his others friend became really worried.

Wanting to save the life of his friend, Anmol immediately grabbed the fork from the table and while the gangster was distracted, Anmol stabbed the hand of the gangster which made the gangster to release Raghav due to pain.

And taking the chance Anmol immediately pulled Raghav towards him and once Raghav reached near him, Anmol began to check on him to be sure that Raghav is okay.

And once he became sure that his friend is okay, Anmol got some relief but at that moment while Anmol looked at the gangster he felt a push from behind on his body which sent him towards the gangster.

Anmol became shocked when the gangster grabbed him and made him turn towards his best friend who has pushed him. 

Not only Anmol but Sid and Raman also became shocked seeing this betrayal of Raghav and then looking at Anmol and his other friends Raghav said,

"You all called me a fattu. Made fun of me and my love Ritika. Now I will show you who is the real fattu."

Completing his words, Raghav immediately broke through the glass window and went towards the police while shouting there are four gangsters in there please kill them all.

Hearing him the police open fired at the four of them and many bullets hit the gangster, Anmol, Sid and Raman.

Anmol saw his friends dying in front of his eyes and the gangster also dying while pulling him down and then he saw the police officials who rushed into the café and then his eyes fixated on Raghav who was giving a proud and victorious smile to him.

This betrayal of his best friend and the one sided action of police which led to the deaths of his and his friends filled the consciousness of Anmol with hatred towards Raghav and the police and with this hatred with his eyes wide open still looking at Raghav, Anmol died.
