Ab tu marega, Raghav. Double-cross ka price.
Nahi. Main khud jaake pen drive le aaunga. Replace kar dunga blank se. Original police ko. Blank wahan rahega. Double-cross nahi—triple-cross.
Raghav ends the call. Throws the phone on the bed. Meera sits in the corner, legs pulled up, watching him.
Tera last tab hoga jab Bhai bole. Tu double-cross karega toh… (pause) …chain se marega nahi, Raghav. Samjha? Double-Cross--2024--Hindi-Uncut-Short-Films--10...
Raghav slams the brakes. The car skids. He turns to her.
Main bhi double-cross kar rahi hoon. Bhai ko maine tera location diya—galat location. Unke launde ab Andheri mein khade hain. Hum log Goa ki taraf nikal rahe hain. Par ek shart.
Tu kya chahta tha? Pyaar? Ghar? Bachche? Hum dono girti hui building mein khade hain, Raghav. Sirf ek hi rasta hai—upar jaane ka. Ya andar dafn hone ka. Scene 4 – The Final Cross INT. CAR – CONTINUOUS Raghav stares at her for a long moment. Then he nods. Ab tu marega, Raghav
Raghav smashes a lamp into Javed’s face. Javed collapses. Raghav runs. EXT. HOTEL BACK ALLEY – 3:10 AM Raghav bursts out the service exit. Rain pours. His car is there. He jumps in.
Tu mera pehla aur aakhri double-cross hai, Raghav. I promise.
(to Javed) Tune call kar diya, hai na?
Hum dono. Hamesha se.
Tune kaha ki Bhai ko pata chal gaya? Kaise?
Mauka?
Then—Meera’s laptop pings. A message from an unknown sender: “Journalist ne deal cancel kar di. Police ne trace kar liya. Ab sirf tum dono ho.”
Achha. Toh main kahan milu? Scene 2 – The Setup EXT. GRAND SAROVAR HOTEL – 2:55 AM Slick lobby. A tired receptionist nods off. Raghav enters in a black jacket, cap pulled low. He bypasses the elevator, takes the stairs.
