Encounter: The Killing is a 2002 Indian Bollywood film produced and directed by Ajay Phansekar. [1] It stars Naseeruddin Shah, Dilip Prabhavalkar and Tara Deshpande in pivotal roles. [2]
In the Mumbai Police's Crime Branch, Senior Inspector Sam Bharucha (Naseeruddin Shah) is a trustworthy police officer who diligently performs his job. He favors mending individuals above denouncing and punishing them. The movie opens with the tale of four teenage college-bound males who turned to sharpshooting as a quick source of income. They escape to Shrivardhan after killing hotel owner Ramanna. When Martin's parents discover a large sum of money and a pistol in his backpack, they suspect their colleague of engaging in antisocial behavior. Martin confesses when they approach him, and they turn him over to the police right away. The three others have fled to Shrivardhan, where Inspector Bharucha chooses to capture them. When Inspector Bharucha gets to Shrivardhan, he gives his staff the order to arrest everyone. As the three lads attempt to flee, a shootout breaks out, during which Inspector Bharucha shoots Lallya and the police squad kills Sonal and Nana. Throughout his lengthy career as a police officer, Inspector Bharucha has never killed anyone, therefore the knowledge that he has done so torments him. When he learns that Lallya was about to give himself up just before Bharucha's gun captured him, his guilt only grows. [3] [4] Lallya's body has not been claimed, however the bodies of the other two sharp shooters have been claimed by their parents and guardians. Bharucha believes that Lallya may come from a decent family and that his parents and other family members ought to be allowed to perform his funeral. He attempts to find Lallya's parents with the help of his staff and Kiran Jayawant (Tara Deshpande), a television news reporter. An old-timer from the underworld, Punappa Avadhe (Dilip Prabhawalkar) is the proprietor of a booze Den. By saying that he knows Lallya's family and will assist Bharucha in finding them, he deceives the police department and Inspector Bharucha. The movie shows the hypocrisy of the middle class, wherein their kids are involved in crimes due to a lack of parental attention, and yet the indifferent parents live in a different world, oblivious to reality.
