Black Squad – Episode 46: "The Phantom Identity"
Opening Scene: A Stranger in His Own Home
Location: Malabar Hill, Mumbai – 9:00 PM
A man in his late 40s, Raghav Sinha, steps out of a taxi in front of a luxurious villa. He stares at the house—his house—after ten years.
He rings the doorbell.
After a moment, the door opens. A younger man stands there, around 35 years old, looking exactly like Raghav did ten years ago.
> Young Man (confused): "Yes? Can I help you?"
Raghav freezes. His heartbeat pounds.
> Raghav (whispering): "Who… who are you?"
The young man tilts his head.
> Young Man: "Raghav Sinha. This is my house. Who are you?"
Raghav stumbles back in shock.
His own name. His own identity.
But the man standing before him is younger, stronger… and alive.
> Raghav (shaking): "This is impossible…"
The young man's eyes narrow.
> Young Raghav: "Security! Get this man out of here!"
Guards rush out. Raghav is dragged away, screaming.
> Raghav: "I AM RAGHAV SINHA! THIS IS MY HOUSE!"
As he is thrown onto the street, he looks back one last time.
The young Raghav watches him coldly, then shuts the door.
FADE TO BLACK.

Qazi raises an eyebrow.

Neha pulls up a file.

Imran frowns.

> Raghav (pleading): "It's my house. My company. My entire life. But someone else is living it. Someone who looks… exactly like me."
Qazi studies him.
> Qazi: "Where have you been for the past ten years?"
Raghav swallows hard.
> Raghav: "I… I don't know."
The room goes silent.
> Imran: "What do you mean?"
Raghav looks down.
> Raghav: "I woke up two months ago… in a hospital in Hyderabad. I don't remember anything from the last ten years."
Arjun leans forward.
> Arjun: "And the first thing you did was come back to Mumbai?"
Raghav nods.
> Raghav: "And that's when I saw him. The man who stole my life."
Qazi exhales.
> Qazi: "We need to meet your… replacement."

Qazi and his team enter.
> Qazi: "Mr. Sinha. We need to talk."
The young man smiles.
> Young Raghav: "Of course, ACP. What's this about?"
Imran folds his arms.
> Imran: "About the real Raghav Sinha."
The young man chuckles.
> Young Raghav: "I am the real Raghav Sinha. The man outside? He's a fraud."
Neha places a DNA test kit on the table.
> Neha: "Then you won't mind proving it?"
A flicker of something dark crosses his face.
> Young Raghav: "You have no authority to demand that."
Qazi steps closer.
> Qazi: "We do now. The government made us an official force. So let's make this simple—take the test, or we take you in."
The room is tense. The young man smiles coldly.
> Young Raghav: "Fine. But I'll tell you what you'll find."
He leans forward.
> Young Raghav (whispers): "The DNA will match perfectly. Because I… am Raghav Sinha."
FADE TO BLACK.

Qazi reads further.
> Qazi: "Raghav Sinha was one of the test subjects… but something went wrong. He vanished before they could erase him.**"
Imran clenches his fists.
> Imran: "So the man outside isn't lying. He's the real one."
A voice behind them speaks.
> Young Raghav: "And that's a problem."
They turn. Young Raghav stands there. But now… his face glitches.
> Qazi (whispers): "You're not human."
Young Raghav smirks.
His eyes glow unnaturally.
> Young Raghav: "I am the future. And you? You don't belong in it."
He lunges.
