Bobby Jasoos 2014

In the winding alleys of Old Hyderabad, Bilqees Ahmed, affectionately known as Bobby, embarks on her journey as a passionate detective while managing the expectations of her traditional middle-class family. With an eye for detail and a desire for excitement, Bobby tackles various neighborhood mysteries, often taking on diverse roles to expose the truth. Her most consequential case arises when Anees Khan, a wealthy non-resident Indian, seeks her expertise in locating two young girls, Niloufer and Aamna, who possess matching birthmarks on their hand and shoulder. Adopting an array of disguises—from a beggar to a TV producer—Bobby diligently works to find the missing children, earning a generous fee and an intriguing promise from Khan to their fathers.

As her notoriety escalates, Bobby becomes entwined in a web of intricate relationships. Her skills catch the eye of Tasawwur, a charming TV show host, who enlists her help to escape unwanted marriage proposals from his family. On the other hand, the prospect of marrying into Tasawwur’s family complicates Bobby’s professional ambitions and personal aspirations. Adding to her trials, a local strongman named Lala approaches her with another pressing task: to dismantle Aafreen’s (played by Anupriya Goenka) coerced marriage to a man selected by her mother, Saida. Although initially reluctant, Bobby is ultimately swayed by Lala’s persuasive reasons, leading her to take on this new challenge.

As Bobby immerses herself in Khan’s world, her instincts urge her to scrutinize his intentions and the authenticity of her assignments. An unexpected discovery hints at a potential threat to both girls, compelling her to confront Khan for clarity. Frustrated by obstacles at every turn, she turns to Tasawwur for support. Together, they devise a plan to clandestinely access Khan’s opulent hotel room, where they unearth his diary and an old photograph—clues that could have dire consequences as they draw the attention of Lala.

With Khan mysteriously vanishing, Bobby seizes the moment to track him down, convinced he has unfinished business involving Ali, his ultimate target. While poring over Khan’s cryptic diary, she uncovers a trail leading to a London library stamp and a biryani order from a nearby restaurant, shedding light on the mysterious man’s turbulent past. In a twist of fate, Khan inadvertently finds himself ensnared in a trap when he pursues Ali, landing him in a situation rife with treachery.

The film culminates in a breathtaking revelation: the three individuals Khan has pursued are actually his long-separated children, lost during chaotic communal riots. Driven by a fatherly instinct, he had provided substantial rewards to their foster parents—ensuring their education and future in London. As secrets unravel, Tasawwur joins forces with Bobby, teaming up with Lala, who surprisingly reveals himself to be Khan’s estranged son, Ali. The narrative wraps up with Bobby cementing her status as an esteemed detective while she and Tasawwur navigate the new terrain of their romance, accompanied by lingering uncertainties about their future together.
