A strange revenge unfolds reminiscent of a famous movie dialogue from 'Gangs of Wasseypur,’ where vengeance runs deep in familial ties. This dialogue is now on everyone's lips in Varanasi, stirring confusion within the police investigating the murder of five family members. The enigma revolves around whether the five murders on November 5th have ties to slayings 27 years ago. Did the child who witnessed the brutal murder of his parents and grandfather return years later to claim retribution?
This tale captures the gruesome end of a family marked by betrayal and bloodshed that began 27 years ago.
A shocking event occurred in the affluent family of liquor baron Rajendra Gupta, shaking the entire city of Varanasi. Rajendra Gupta's wife Neetu, their sons Navnendra and Subendra, and daughter Gaurangi were mercilessly shot dead in their home. The police arrived swiftly to investigate, finding each victim struck with a bullet to the head and chest. Oddly, family head Rajendra Gupta was missing.
Speculation arose that Rajendra masterminded the murders and fled. Yet, police needed confirmation before drawing conclusions and tracked his mobile to Mirapur-Rampur village, miles from the crime scene. What puzzled the police was Gupta's presence in a distant village while his family lay dead in the city.
Investigating the location led them to an unfinished house where they discovered Rajendra Gupta’s body, similarly shot but found stark naked on the bed, drastically flipping the case narrative. Police's initial belief suggested he killed his family, yet physical evidence indicated a different killer, raising the question: who did it?

Further inquiries led police to converse with the eldest surviving family member, Sharda Devi, Rajendra's mother. Her insights veiled in suspicion pointed to her grandson, Rajendra’s nephew, Vicky Gupta, as the potential culprit. Vicky previously expressed threats against the family, deeply embroiled in longstanding feuds with his uncle Rajendra.
To comprehend this enmity, rewind to 27 years back when the lethal sequence commenced. Rajendra’s father, Laxmi Narayan Gupta, a formidable entrepreneur, favored his younger son Krishna over a disgruntled Rajendra. In 1997, in a fit of rage, Rajendra shot his brother Krishna and sister-in-law, sparking a heinous lineage saga.
That act led to Rajendra's arrest, swelling his father’s disdain which shifted business responsibilities to his grandsons, Vicky and Jugnu. Released on parole in 2003, Rajendra sought his share, only to face refusal. Gripped by vengeance, Rajendra orchestrated the murder of his father and his guard, continuing a violent heritage stained in blood.

Post his father's death, amidst legal battles and family turmoil, Rajendra took a second wife, Neetu, bearing three children, while his estranged relations reeked of past grievances. Vicky, embittered by his loss, harbored silent vendettas, accelerating with recent events.
Police trails now pointed toward Vicky, suspected to have orchestrated the deaths. With enough evidence, yet no arrest, his mysterious absence grows ominous. His associations and documented threats tighten the noose, with his brother Jugnu cooperating but Vicky credit cases unresolved.
Meanwhile, patterns emerged between Rajendra’s consistent murderous style: even as Krishna and wife died on a fateful Tuesday, present murders mirrored old gruesome acts, both coinciding with the auspicious Kartik Purnima.

Further investigation places Vicky in Tamil Nadu, having studied in Vellore. Police interfaced with associates gathering insights as leads tether crime roots to him undeniably, yet his physical capture remains elusive amidst deepening familial lore. Thus, the case unfolds, an intricate quilt of past tragedies manifesting in present atrocities driven by vendetta.
