Karishma's resolve echoed through her mind like a sacred mantra, fueling her unyielding quest for truth. With each step away from Anubhav's house, her conviction grew, fortified by her unwavering loyalty to the man she had sworn to protect. The treacherous path ahead, fraught with unknown dangers and hidden enemies, failed to deter her. Instead, it steeled her resolve, transforming her into an unrelenting force driven by the pursuit of justice.

As she walked, the city's darkness seemed to recede, replaced by the radiant glow of her determination. The neon lights of the city's skyscrapers reflected off the wet pavement, casting a kaleidoscope of colors around her. Yet, Karishma's focus remained unwavering, her eyes fixed on the horizon, her heart pounding with anticipation. Every step forward was a declaration of war against the forces that had manipulated Anubhav's life, shrouding his identity in mystery.

The night air whispered secrets in her ear, tantalizing clues that only she could decipher. Karishma listened intently, her instincts honed to detect the subtlest cues. The whispers spoke of hidden alliances, ancient grudges, and forgotten conversations. She wove these threads into a tapestry of possibilities, her mind racing with scenarios and counter-scenarios.

Suddenly, the silence was shattered by the shrill ringtone of her phone. Karishma's heart skipped a beat as she recognized the unknown number. She hesitated, her hand hovering over the receiver, before answering. 

"Tum jo Anubhav ke baare mein soch rhi ho, wahi sach hai!" (What you think about Anubhav is the truth!) The caller's unknown voice sent shivers down Karishma's spine, its eerie tone resonating deep within her.

Karishma's grip on the phone tightened, her mind racing. "Kaun hai aap? Aur tumhein kaise pata hai ki hum kaa soch rhe hai?" (Who are you? And how do you know what I'm thinking?) she demanded, trying to keep her voice steady. 

The caller's laughter was low and menacing. "Main tumhare har sawal ka jawab doonga, lekin pehle tumhein yeh samajhna hoga ki sachchai kitni badi hai." (I'll answer all your questions, but first, you need to understand how vast the truth is). Karishma's heart pounded in anticipation. "Hum taiyaar hain, batayo!" (I'm ready, tell me!).

The caller's voice dropped to a whisper. " Karishma. Woh jo tumhein dikhaya gaya hai, woh jo tumhe dikhaya gya woh sacchai hai hi nahi." ( Karishma. What you've been shown is not the truth). 

Karishma's world began to spin. What did this mean? Was everything she knew about Anubhav a fabrication?Suddenly, the line went dead. "Par madam, sir, humse jhooth kahe kahengi ki Anu bhaiya deshdrohi hai? Woh toh kitna pyaar karti thi Anu bhaiya se. Aesa bhi toh ho sakta hai unse jhooth kaha gaya ho?" Karishma's eyes narrowed, her mind racing.

........

The next day, Karishma arrived at her police station, the morning sunlight casting a golden glow on the bustling precinct. As she stepped out of her vehicle, her team sprang to attention, their crisp salutes a testament to their respect and admiration.

Santosh, Cheetah, and Pushpa stood ramrod straight, their eyes shining with loyalty. "Jai Hind, madam!" they chorused, their voices echoing through the station, a proud declaration of their unwavering commitment to their country and their leader.

Karishma's eyes sparkled with pride as she returned the salute, her hand touching her forehead in a crisp gesture. "Jai Hind, team," she replied.

"Madam sir, hume lagta hai ki Anubhav bhaiya nirdosh hai," (We think Anubhav bhaiya is innocent) Karishma hesitantly said, her voice laced with conviction, after saluting Haseena. Her eyes locked onto Haseena's, seeking validation and understanding. 

Haseena's gaze pierced deep into Karishma's soul, as if searching for the truth behind her words. The air was heavy with tension, the silence between them palpable. Haseena's expression remained inscrutable, her eyes narrowing slightly as she scrutinized Karishma.

Santosh, Cheetah, and Pushpa exchanged nervous glances, their faces reflecting their own doubts and fears. They stood frozen, awaiting Haseena's response, their loyalty divided between their leader and their colleague.

Haseena's voice was low and measured, each word dripping with intensity. "Kya aapke paas is baat ka koi saboot hai, Karishma?" Her eyes never left Karishma's face, boring into her very being.

"Madam sir, hum kal woh hospital gaye the jaha Anu bhaiya ki body rakhi gyi hai," Karishma began, her voice steady. "Waha humne yeh file mili." 

Haseena's eyes narrowed, her gaze intensifying as she accepted the file from Karishma. Her fingers trembled slightly as she opened it, revealing the DNA test results."DNA test of Abhinav and Anubhav?"

"Abhinav kon hai, Karishma Singh?" Haseena asked, her voice firm. "Anubhav bhaiya ka judwa bhai," Karishma replied, her expression grave. 

 Haseena's eyes narrowed. "Aur aap iss bhai ke baare mein janti thi?" Karishma shook her head, her voice barely above a whisper. "Nahi, madam sir hume kal hi is baare mein chachi se pata chala unhone humme bataya ki unhone abhinav ko anubhav bhaiya ki massi ko de diya tha kyunki unki koi aulaad nhi thi."

"Toh inn sab mein Anubhav nirdosh kese proof hote hai?" Haseena asked, her brow furrowed.Karishma's expression turned resolute. "Aesa bhi toh ho sakta hai naa, madam sir, ki jisse humne goli maari aur jinhe deshdrohi sabit kiya gaya woh Abhinav ho?"

Haseena's eyes widened, her voice barely above a whisper. "Aur Anubhav? Woh kahan hai?"

"wahi toh pata karna hai maddam sir."
