"Aashram" is an Indian Hindi-language web series that explores the intersection of faith, power, and corruption in contemporary society. Created by filmmaker Prakash Jha, known for his socially relevant films, "Aashram" delves into the murky world of spiritual leaders and their unchecked influence over their followers.
The series follows the journey of Baba Nirala, played by Bobby Deol, a charismatic and enigmatic guru who has built a sprawling empire around his Aashram (spiritual retreat). On the surface, Baba Nirala presents himself as a benevolent figure, offering spiritual solace and healing to his devotees. However, as the story unfolds, it becomes apparent that behind his saintly facade lies a web of deceit, manipulation, and criminal activities.
Through its narrative, "Aashram" confronts themes of blind faith, exploitation, and the abuse of power. It sheds light on how individuals in positions of authority can exploit their followers' trust for personal gain, while also exploring the complex dynamics between faith, spirituality, and morality.
The series has garnered attention for its gripping storyline, compelling performances, and its bold portrayal of societal issues. It serves as a thought-provoking commentary on the darker aspects of religious institutions and the consequences of unchecked authority.
"Aashram" is available for streaming on various platforms and has resonated with audiences for its gritty realism and exploration of timely social issues.

09:44Look, if you don't speak, how will the truth come out in front of the world?
09:52Tell me, what did Baba do to you that day?
10:01Tell me.
10:03Then what happened?
10:05Then, he started touching me.
10:09He said, close your eyes.
10:16And then, I kissed Bharti.
10:23And he started pressing me.
10:32Komal, calm down.
10:36You are a very brave girl.
10:37Tell me everything step by step.
10:45I stopped him.
10:48Then he started taking off my top.
10:53I got scared.
10:58Then he said, why are you scared?
11:02Why are you ashamed?
11:04I will also take off my clothes.
11:08I was very scared.
11:11I stopped him.
11:14But he grabbed me tightly.
11:19And then, he did something bad with me.
11:26Calm down, Komal. Calm down.
11:28I don't understand, Grandma.
11:31Komal, look.
11:33Try to remember.
11:36Tell me further.
11:38After taking off your top, did he also take off your pant?
11:43No, he didn't take off my pant.
11:47What do you mean?
11:49If he didn't take off your pant, then how did he do something bad with you?
11:56He grabbed my head.
11:59And pulled me towards him.
12:03Then he asked me to open my mouth.
12:06And then...
12:09I was feeling pain in my mouth.
12:12I was suffocating.
12:14And he didn't let me go until...
12:23You are a very brave girl.
12:27Don't be scared.
12:33Calm down.
12:43Calm down, dear.
12:45Everything will be fine. Come.
12:47Come.
12:57Sit here.
12:59Sit here.
13:02Everything will be fine.
13:12Sir, he was raped by a minor.
13:21I have registered the FIR.
13:29Komal B.
13:31Don't take any action on this right now.
13:34But let me search the crime scene of the sex area forum.
13:39I will match Komal's statement with her description on the record.
13:42And my evidence will be confirmed.
13:44Okay?
13:46You know me very well.
13:48But it's a matter of fighting with these people.
13:51They will give the cure in life.
13:53Don't do it officially.
13:55Let me do it.
13:56You can't do it officially here.
13:59The court's help will come later.
14:02And our case will be confirmed.
14:04You are not here for the posting.
14:07And you are alone in life.
14:10Think about me.
14:12I am helpless without talking to the head office.
14:16Please, don't do this.
14:19If you go up, this case will be buried in the ground forever.
14:23They will erase all the evidence one by one.
14:26I will do it.
14:32Okay, do one thing.
14:34Wait for a few days.
14:36I will try my best.
14:38Okay?
14:40Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you.
14:52Keep the file with you.
14:54I will tell you how to do the diary.
14:56Okay.
14:59Look, Ujagar.
15:01Think before you do anything.
15:04Save our name.
15:07Otherwise, we will be ruined.
15:10Thank you, brother.
15:12I remember everything.
15:14There was a big black gate.
15:17There were a lot of security guards there.
15:20Let them go.
15:22Let them come.
15:27The building was white from inside.
15:49It was inside.
15:51Very inside.
15:52Very inside.
15:55After the garden.
16:05There was a big bed.
16:08And a sofa.
16:12On which he was sitting.
16:19The girl is a minor.
16:20She is a minor.
16:22And this is rape.
16:24376 and post.
16:26Both will be charged.
16:28Now Baba will spend his life in jail.
16:32The problem is
16:34that if we order an investigation from the court
16:37they will find out and destroy all the evidence.
16:41Now?
16:43Oh.
16:48It's an unknown number.
16:50Maybe it's Akti and Pammi.
16:53Pick it up.
16:55Hello.
16:56Yes, Ujagar.
16:57I am Natasha.
16:59How are you? How is Pammi?
17:02She is here.
17:04She is a little sad.
17:06She is a little upset these days.
17:09She is not well.
17:10Please get her to talk to me.
17:12Yes, madam.
17:14Natasha madam.
17:18Hello.
17:20Yes, doctor.
17:21How are you, Pammi?
17:25I feel restless, sister.
17:28I just want to do one thing.
17:31This is my chance.
17:32I just want to finish it.
17:34Okay.
17:35We can't talk for long.
17:36You will have to hang up now.
17:37Text me your address.
17:38I will send the money.
17:39Wait.
17:40One minute, sister.
17:41One minute.
17:45Hello.
17:46Listen, Pammi has the medicines, right?
17:48If you need anything, message me.
17:51Yes, save this number.
17:53Okay, bye.
18:02I have confirmed everything.
18:04Just file it.
18:05No, brother.
18:07Spare me, Mani.
18:09I can't give you any search order.
18:11I am a man of my word, Jagar.
18:13Try to understand.
18:15I can't go a step ahead without the head office's order.
18:19Inspector General of Police.
18:21Sumit Chauhan.
18:23This is your status and this is your intelligence.
18:26Idiots who have trusted your intelligence.
18:28No, sir.
18:29Actually, I…
18:30What?
18:31What is it?
18:32Tell me.
18:33Why are you staring at me?
18:34Don't you want to get a beating?
18:36Secondly, an FIR has been registered under your nose.
18:38The investigation is going on.
18:39You are sleeping with a gun to your head.
18:43Now look at our reaction to your action.
18:46Where is he?
18:47Where is brother?
18:48I have called him three times since morning.
18:50He is not picking up.
18:51I have called his house as well, but…
18:52But what?
18:53Where is he?
18:54His family members are talking the opposite.
18:59Call the road minister.
19:01And listen.
19:02Tell the Home Minister that this man should not be seen.
19:04This is the only way.
19:05Get him out.
19:06One minute.
19:07Out.
19:08Listen to me.
19:09Out.
19:10Sir, one minute.
19:11Get him out.
19:12Sir, one minute.
19:13Out.
19:14Get lost.
19:15One minute.
19:16Idiot.
19:21Mr. Gopal,
19:22that man will be fine in place of Chauhan.
19:24He is of DIG rank.
19:25Balwant Sinha.
19:27He fixed the boy's forensic report.
19:30He is my dear friend type.
19:33I will talk to the Home Minister.
19:35And make this Dhaiya family understand.
19:37Do something about him.
19:38He is a pain in the neck.
19:40I will do it.
19:41I will tighten it.
19:59Yes, brother.
20:00What is the news?
20:01Has he gone out since yesterday?
20:03We are trying to make him understand.
20:05Okay.
20:06Keep an eye on him.
20:08Absolutely, sir.
20:09Got it?
20:10Keep an eye on him.
20:11Don't worry.
20:13I am very scared, Komal.
20:15Ever since these policemen have come out,
20:19I will do one thing.
20:20I will call Mr. Pooja Agar.
20:22You can tap your phone too.
20:27The inspector has come twice.
20:30He says
20:32to meet Babaji.
20:35Hello.
20:45Hello.
20:46Mr. Dhaiya,
20:47I wanted to meet you.
20:49Our department inspected your flyover work.
20:53There are many serious issues in it.
20:57That's why your flyover contract is being cancelled.
21:01The advance that the department gave you,
21:03will be returned within 7 days.
21:04Sir, how can you…
21:12What happened, Ajay?
21:14What happened?
21:17Everything is over.
21:22The contract has been cancelled.
21:34What are you doing?
21:35What is going on?
21:36We are taking possession of your house.
21:38It's a court order.
21:40Sir, we will pay the payment.
21:41We are arranging it.
21:42Look, my highway work bill has been passed.
21:44The payment will be done any day.
21:45Please, sir.
21:46Give us some time.
21:47Please.
21:48Move aside.
21:49Let them do their work.
21:51That's right.
21:52You came running to stick the notice.
21:54But your hands and legs tremble to take action on our flyover.
21:58Why?
21:59Isn't that necessary?
22:00Why?
22:01Isn't that necessary?
22:03Our daughter is dead.
22:04But there is no one to listen to her.
22:07The truth is,
22:08all of you are sold out.
22:10All of you.
22:11Yes, we are sold out.
22:12Will you buy it?
22:13Tell me.
22:14Then I will tell you the price.
22:16Didn't you understand
22:17what it means to take blessings from Baba?
22:20Let's go and talk.
22:28Listen,
22:29show me the rest of the duty charges as well.
22:31Yes, sir.
22:33Sir,
22:35we have stuck the notice.
22:37We will get the house auctioned as well.
22:39But I don't think
22:40the Dahiya family is in the mood to compromise.
22:43Don't worry.
22:45We have a lot of means to tighten them.
22:49Sadhu,
22:50didn't you go?
22:51Sir, your signature is left here.
22:54Here,
22:55on this.
23:00Phone Ringing
23:05Phone Ringing
23:07Yes, Sadhu.
23:09Sir,
23:10there is a lot of torture going on here.
23:12The Ashram people here
23:13will crush the entire Dahiya family.
23:15I am worried about you as well.
23:17Do you want to be dragged along as well?
23:20Don't worry about me.
23:22Okay, sir. Take care of yourself.
23:30Siren Wailing
23:43Sir,
23:45there is no entry here.
23:46Hmm.
23:48All inspectors are alert.

23:59Siren Wailing
24:08Why are you here now?
24:11What do you want to talk about?
24:14Just look at the state your police has put us in.
24:18You guys were very brave and courageous.
24:22We are on the streets now.
24:25I don't know who to fight with
24:26and who to seek justice from.
24:30Siren Wailing
24:32I am sorry. Just one second.
24:34Siren Wailing
24:35What happened, sir?
24:36Is there a police sanction?

26:21You broke the rules.
26:23You broke the rules.
26:27I didn't expect this from you.
26:32Now the time has come
26:35when you get rid of your sins.
26:40Whatever you did,
26:42I forgive you
26:44for your mistakes.

27:04Siren Wailing
27:13Please come.
27:17Had I known that I would see you today,
27:20I would have arranged for the Aarti Pooja.
27:23You have taken the form of Chandi.
27:29What kind of a girl are you?
27:32I am the same.
27:36We have been together for three years.
27:39Eating, drinking,
27:41roaming around,
27:43getting angry,
27:44sleeping and waking up.
27:47I see.
27:50I think you have forgotten my name.
27:52It must be on the name plate outside.
27:55Balwant Sinha.
27:57And I am also the same.
27:59Your Balwant.
28:02If your name was on the name plate outside,
28:04I wouldn't have come inside to see your face.
28:08What are you doing here?
28:10Here?
28:12Look at me.
28:14I have come to play hide-and-seek on my reputation.
28:18Will you play?
28:23I was joking.
28:25The thing is,
28:26people used to tell honest and truthful officers to stay in one place.
28:31But look, you will understand how comfortable it is.
28:33I mean, I handled the duty today and I saw you directly.
28:37Tell me, what service can I do for you?
28:39No.
28:44Ujagar, he is Balwant Sinha.
28:46My…
28:47He was your ex-husband.
28:49I understood as soon as I saw him.
28:50Hmm.
28:52Even I have heard your name.
28:54Inspector Ujagar Singh.
28:57Second name,
28:58Anushasan Singh.
29:03Orders, seniors.
29:04Ignorance of duty.
29:07Lover's attitude.
29:10You look quite talented.
29:12Hmm.
29:13It's good that you came yourself because
29:17I don't want anyone to get hold of this.
29:24What is this, Ujagar?
29:27These are called Hajiri's orders in the police line.
29:31A last warning for transgressing his
29:34duties, authorities and limits.
29:39He is quite hyperactive.
29:40Give him a break.
29:41He needs rest.
29:43You have shown your true colors so soon.
29:46What more can be expected from you?
29:49Honesty and truthfulness.
29:52Mr. Balwant Sinha,
29:54you are not using such words in your praise.
30:00Hmm.
30:02Hmm.
30:05The ones you were going to fight,
30:09have already lost.
30:10Look,
30:11what a bad omen for them.
30:17Look,
30:18it's so sad.
30:24Be careful.
30:25Please sit.
30:26Sit and look.
30:30Sir,
30:31She is not us.
30:32She is not us.
30:33Not us.
30:35She is not us, sir.
30:38Not us.
30:39Not us.
30:40No, sir.
30:42Not us.
30:43Not us.
30:44Not…
30:46Not us.
30:48Not us.
30:49Please, sir.
30:51How can you say that?
30:53I am the President of Delhi and my duty is to help people.
30:57I have seen you being betrayed and violent.
31:00Our people were standing outside, but they didn't know anything.
31:05They left their notes here.
31:09It was written on this table.
31:12They were afraid of their end, sir.
31:17Get all this down.
31:21Baba Nirala raped my daughter in the name of treatment.
31:28She couldn't get out of the shock.
31:34The police didn't even file an FIR against us.
31:39They snatched my husband's contract.
31:44They shut down our bank account.
31:48They even put the house on a auction.
31:54Haridas.
31:55Yes sir.
31:58Let this come to me.
32:01And you get the family's photographs and the media checked.
32:06And send these bodies for post-mortem.
32:10Sir, the post-mortem ones?
32:15Don't worry.
32:17I don't think Dr. Nadar Shah will be able to do her post-mortem.
32:23Have a cup of tea, DIG sir.
32:27A devotee of mine makes his own tea.
32:31It has both fragrance and intoxication.
32:35The taste is in your blessings, Bhopasaheb.
32:40Baba's blessings are always with you.
32:44The way you helped the Dahiya family,
32:48the way you solved their problems,
32:51it was a good job.
32:54By the way,
32:57did you write your resignation letter?
33:07I am certain that we won't leave him alive.
33:13Baba will be responsible for all our deaths.
33:21It's good that you got rid of the disease in your mind.
33:25Otherwise, so many souls would have died.
