5, 4, 3, 2, 1, fire!
Good show boys! Damn good show!
Keep it up. Aashu, quite a good time.
2 minutes 45 seconds and still you can reduce 15 seconds.
Take-off a little faster.
And Rony, you're too good.
You run like an Olympic champion. - Thank you sir.
2 minutes flat and you are up!
Very good. I'm very proud of you.
And Samay, you've got to out this. - Ok Sir.
You look like a pregnant woman! Very slow. - [Laughs]
You all got to be in top form.
I see signs of a fight.
They have called me at the head colony.
I remember. The more you sweat in peace the less you bleed in war.
The more you sweat in a flying pad the less you will bleed in war.
Remember this.
Andy sir.
Morning Andy. Sit. - Sir.
Thank you sir.
Yes sir.
Andy, as you know, the clouds of war can shower anytime.
We're going to face a war anytime now.
You move to Jaisalmer immediately...
...and create a new air base. Make a new air base there.
Yes sir.
And take command of the Hunter squad.
You know the hunter?
Hunter sir?
Yes. You're fully operational on Hunters and Migs.
What's the problem?
All the best Andy. - Thank you sir.
Company, attention!
Jai Hind sir.
Sir, two JCO, 32 OR is ready to fire.
The brave soldiers of Punjab Regiment.
The day that we were eagerly waiting for has arrived today.
We have got the orders.
Company will go to Rajasthan on advance post.
From today the enemy's name will be written...
On every bullet of yours.
So soldiers, let us see, how the bullet will be fired.
[Gun Cocking]
Fire!
[Rapid gunfire]
Hello Papa. - [Preeti's dad] Hello.
I'm Preeti speaking.
How are you, child? Is everything all right?
Nothing is right, papa.
Why? What happened child?
He is being sent to the border.
Why?
There is going to be a war.
I'll be a living corpse, papa.
Please get his transfer stopped, papa.
You are so well connected catty.
You will have to do this, papa.
Ok dear. No need to worry.
I'll see to it that he is not sent to the border.
I'll stop his transfer.
All right.
[Phone rings]
Hello. - [Preeti's dad] Hello.
Papa. Preeti here.
There is no need to worry, child.
I've stopped Kuldeep's transfer.
[Preeti's dad] Now he won't go to the war.
[Preeti's dad] I'll have him sent to Delhi headquarters.
Hello. Kuldeep here.
I've heard what you said and understood it too.
And now you understand me too.
If you have me transferred, then the daughter for whom...
...you are doing this I'll leave her.
Son Kuldeep.
I'll divorce her.
[Gunfire]
Left, right, left.
[Gunfire]
Left, right, left.
About turn!
[Gunfire]
About turn!
Get chairs.
What did you say to papa?
The same that you heard.
Remember you had taken Dipu's oath that you'll never leave me.
I did.
Will you break it?
If something happens to my child...
Let it happen.
Don't forget that I had taken an oath while taking...
...commission the army.
I had done it even when I was born on the land of India.
I had taken an oath on this soil where I grew up.
And I had taken an oath on those Himalayas too...
...which has been protecting my country for 5000 years.
I had also taken an oath on those 50 crores siblings...
...who have been born on this soil just like me.
Your Kuldeep can anytime sac his child for them.
[Crying]
Forgive me Kuldeep. I was helpless in your love.
Without you life would be worse then death.
Thinking this, I had called papa.
What if something happens to you in the war?
Come on! Nothing will happen to me.
Dipu and your love will not allow me to die.
I'll come back In one piece. I promise.
Thank you.
Wing Co. Bajwa. - Major Kuldeep.
How do you do?
Getting a lift to Jodhpur?
Sir.
And then to one of the border outpost in Rajasthan sector.
I see.
These army soldiers are very lucky.
How come sir?
Your border outpost must already be ready.
You just have to go there and take charge.
We are the ones who have to take the trouble.
We have to make an air base in a desert, Jaisalmer sector.
We'll have to start from the A B C.
And who knows how long we will get.
Do you think we will see action?
Looking at east Pakistan...
...I do feel that they will surely open western front.
Morning sir.
Ready for take off gentlemen. - Thank you sir.
Sir, you said that Pakistan will surely open the western front.
then we will close.
They will fire the 1st bullet and we'll fire the last.
[Laughs]
Well said, Major. Well said.
But I don't think that you will get a chance to fire a bullet...
...when we air force people are here.
I beg your pardon sir.
Major, the winning or defeat in battle is decided...
...by the strength of a country's air force.
But sir. Our army stands strong to confront the attackers.
Agreed. But it is we who enter first. We make the first attack.
Air force will strive deep in the enemy territory.
Sir, there is no end to the argument...
...about who is more important, army or force.
We both just have to remember that when...
...there are many flowers, the garden looks beautiful.
If it is just me, I have no importance.
If it is just you, you have no importance.
Very good Major-sir.
If it is just me, I have no importance.
If it is just you, you have no importance.
It was good. But air force is still leading.
Army... - Air force.
Mathuradas, there is an emergency.
All the leaves have been cancelled.
But still we have forwarded your application...
...to brigade head quarters.
Whatever the orders, you will be informed.
Ok sir.
May I come in Sir?
Oh Kuldeep. Come.
Please take a seat.
Mathuradas who went right now, is from your company.
He wants emergency leave.
One who runs home seeing the clouds of war.
Has no place in army.
He says wife is sick. She has cancer.
Then give him a leave forever, sir.
He will sit at his wife's feet.
Good old Major Kuldeep.
Now go and take care of the Longewala post.
Relieve the BSF men over there.
120 men of the company are waiting for you outside.
Just 120 men will take care of the Longewala post!
Yes. And 600 men will take care of the Sadewala post.
600 men for Sadewala post and just 120 for us!
That is because if the enemy wants to try a new strategy...
...they will try to enter through Sadewala road.
They had entered from there itself in the '63 war.
So you think they will repeat the same mistake?
Or they will ask us before attacking that...
...which route should we follow to enter your territory?
Enemy won't follow our advice. But at least you can.
Go and take charge of your post.
You know very well that the strategy and policy...
...decisions are taken at the head quarters.
Not in our office. Now come and meet your men.
Company attention. Company, don't move.
Jai Hind sir.
Four JCOs, 96 other ranks are ready for the parade, sir.
Company don't move.
He is second lieutenant, Dharamveer...
...your second in command.
Sir, you not tell me that there is a child too in 120 men.
You are right sir. I am a child.
My father was a kid too when he entered army.
But he was such a lovely child that in the '65 war...
...God called him and made him sit on his lap.
Your father's name?
Major Veerbhan.
Ok Kuldeep. Best of luck.
Dharamveer, tell the company to mount. - Sir.
Subedar-sir, get the company mounted.
Company, mount.
I knew Major Veerbhan very well.
I can't call him a friend since he was my senior.
But our relationship was none the less of friendship.
How is your mother?
She is fine. But she can't see.
Can't see?
The light of her eyes flowed away with tears.
I'm sorry son.
Welcome to Jaisalmer air base boys.
Yes sir yes!
Where have you got us, sir!
This is supposed to be an airbase, boys!
But nothing can be seen here. It is a desert.
Get used to it.
[Phone rings]
Hello. Wing Co. Bajwa.
[Raghu] N T Raghu here.
Yes sir. It's a beautiful desert.
There are only 3 tents. No base.
[Raghu] Don't cry. At least you got a runway.
[Raghu] Now you make an operational base.
I'll try my best.
Thank you sir.
Ok boys. Let's see who our neighbours are.
That's Ramgarh.
That's Chanot. The main target of 1965 war.
And that is Sadewala.
Oh that is Longewala!
That's where Major Kuldeep Singh is.
Next to me. In the air, now the ground.
If it is just me, I have no importance.
If it is just you, you have no importance.
It's them. The army has come to take over our post.
Which unit is it?
I can see a Sardar. It must be some unit from Punjab.
Hail Mother India!
Where is your Commanding sir?
Sir has gone on patrolling.
Ok. Give him a message on the wireless...
...that we have come to take over the post.
Yes sir.
Sir... Sir.
There is a message for you.
Message?
Army men have arrived at the post. They have called you.
Really. I was having a good sleep, Santram.
How can you sleep so comfortably on this sand all night, sir?
They don't call this earth mother, just like that, Santram.
She has a soothing effect.
When she sees that a child is sleeping...
...she covers him with a sheet of sand.
Come on.
Captain Bhairav Singh sir.
Pleased to meet you Capt. - Sir.
You must have got the orders already.
Sir. This BSF company will go to Kataru post.
Captain sir, you must be very familiar with this area.
Just like the corridor of my house sir.
That will be a great help to us.
Sir. That's why, my head quarters has ordered me and...
...my 3 men to stay here with you during the war.
That's right.
This request had been made from army head quarters itself.
You may ask your men to leave now.
Sir.
Sir, tell them to light a lamp at the Goddess's temple daily.
Sir. Do you see the Goddess's temple over there?
My friends wish that you should light a lamp there daily.
A lamp will be lighted and prayers will be.
Offered there everyday.
They believe that if you do this...
...Mother Goddess will surely protect this post.
Kartar Singh, remember what he said.
Yes sir.
Sir.
Company, mount.
[Camels grunts]
Hail the Mother Goddess!
Pick it up. Yes from there.
Yes. Ok. Fast. Pick it up.
Subedar-sir. - Yes sir.
Tell the soldiers to fill up water from the well.
All right sir.
Soldiers, fill the water.
Bankya get the bucket.
I am very thirsty.
I haven't had a bath. I'll have a good bath. - Stop.
Stop. I say stop it.
Everyone drink water.
Wait, even I am coming.
I will join you. - No one will touch the water.
First, let me fill water for cooking.
Then you can bath, wash or drown in this well.
Bhagiram, you are giving this order?
Yes. - When I am here.
Yes.
Do you know whom you are talking to?
Yes. I know. You are an officer, boss.
I'll always obey your orders.
But I'll surely say something.
Food makes the army. Army doesn't make food.
It is accepted all over the world that...
...no army can survive without food.
[Laughs]
He is just a cook, but talks so much.
Don't feel bad, sir. But as strictly Bhagiram talks...
...he feeds us that lovingly too.
High rankers also ignore his behaviour jokingly.
Why won't they!
Even they have reached those high ranks...
...after eating Bhagiram's food.
[Laughs]
Sir, try my food. You'll always progress. Always.
[Laughs]
Come on Masti. - Come on Bhagiram-ji.
Subedar Ratan Singh.
Even he has arrived here to die.
Subedar Ratan Singh reporting on duty sir.
At ease Ratan Singh.
Anti-tank guns. Just 2 RCL guns?
Do they think that the enemy has just 2 - 4 tanks?
Why just 2, sir? Let them have even 2-4 hundred.
When Ratan Singh is here, you don't need to worry.
Ratan Singh, you won't stop your hands and legs.
Why not, sir?
If the need arises then...
...I'll put my head on the tank to silence it, sir.
Ratan Singh has not changed.
Like always, you must be hungry.
I'm starving.
I can even make a tandoori chicken...
...of the enemy's tank and eat it.
[Laughs]
Go. Bhagiram is waiting. - Bhagiram?
Greetings, Bhagiram.
Go to hell! - Why are you holding your heads after seeing me?
Yes. - Why? Don't you like my presence?
As if we're not friends but enemies.
I was wondering what spite does the Indian army has with me.
You're posted in the same company where I go.
Bhagiram-ji, Indian army has nothing to do with this.
Listen to me and show your horoscope to some nice astrologer.
Somewhere down the line his name must be...
...involved with Rahu and Ketu.
What Rahu and Ketu?
Kumbhkaran died and became a star.
And now ruling my horoscope.
This is the result that you're giving me of a friendship spanning across ages.
May friendship rot to hell! Now I'll cook.
Mastram. - Yes.
Hitherto you used to cook food for 120 people? - Yes.
From tomorrow... why tomorrow, from today...
...cook food for 130 people.
Where are 10 additional people?
10 people? Can't you see?
There is only one man.
Here is one... then two... three... four... five... six... - Hey, stop!
Seven, eight, nine, ten. - [Laughs]
My dear friend. - Ratan my friend.
How far is the border from here? - Only 16 kms, sir.
Are the villages in the vicinity of the border friendly?
They used to be at onetime, sir.
But in the war of 1965, some of the people crossed the border.
They are the brothers and nephews of these people.
Some of them are informers too, sir.
Dharamveer. - Sir.
From tomorrow start the full scale checking of the village.
Shall we use force, sir?
If necessary. - Sir. This and this.
These are the two undeveloped roads.
They pass through border pillar no 635 and 638.
We'll keep a tab on these roads and border pillar too.
Sure, sir.
We can see the Pakistan's post back wall too.
Ratan Singh. - Sir.
Make preparations to go to the border tomorrow morning.
Right, sir.
Sir that is pillar no 635.
Bend down, sir. Don't stand up.
Enemy soldiers are always on guard.
What madness is sir doing! Stop him!
Sir, sir, somebody is coming from the front.
Burabaksha. Is this Indian officer mad?
Sir, if you command, then I'll shoot him. - No!
Love and madness have an old relation.
It looks like major sir loves his country to the extend...
...that I love the sands of this desert.
Then even he'll get a 'Veer Chakra' someday.
Even my father had got it.
Even he was the victim of this madness.
He left behind a 'Veer Chakra' and a blind mother for me.
[Laughs]
If you don't feel bad, then shall I ask something, sir? - Yes.
There is some difference between bravery and madness.
What you call madness that actually has roots in faith.
And I have faith that life and death are in the hands of God.
And my God is not on enemy's side, but with me.
Because I'm always immersed in Him.
Major, sir. These villagers are in greatest danger.
Because people use this road for traveling.
Sir, the Pakistanis on the wireless. - In our frequency.
Sir, they want to talk to you.
Yes. This is Kuldeep Singh speaking.
[Pakistani major] 'Kuldeep Singh Chanpure, we know that you've come.'
'With your whole Punjab. You spent your night there, right?'
'We were waiting for you only.'
'It seems that your death is written in Longewala only.'
'If you want to escape from me, then leave the post and run away.'
'You can't escape from us.'
'If you are killed then your wife will marry again...'
'...but what about your children.'
Will you only abuse me or show yourself too!
If you are truly a man, then come forward!
Then I'll show you what Kuldeep Singh is!
I'm come as death for you all!
Don't try to step on our land.
There is no huge place in Longewala for graveyard.
And as far as my son is concerned...
...you sick people, he's your father.
Gentlemen, they've got the full information.
That the 23 Punjab is at the Longewala post.
And their commanding officer is Kuldeep Singh Chanpure.
They've got informers. - Bastards!
Sir, let them come.
We'll make a graveyard for him. We'll surely make it.
Sir, the villagers must have given the information to the Pakistani.
They always travel across the border.
Sir, a fire is burning in the ruin fort.
God knows who these people are...
...and what they are doing in this area.
Let's check them out.
What's the matter, sir? - Who are you all?
We're travelers, sir. We have to go across the borders.
We're going to Tonode for Goddess worship.
Sir, they're saying that they're going to Tonode for Goddess worship.
From where have you come?
I've come from Dungra village. I've got my meals along with me.
I thought I'll have dinner and rest for a while...
...and even they'll rest.
Search them.
Nothing, sir. - Nothing, sir.
Let's go.
Eat your dinner.
Sir, do you see this grass lying before the camel?
Gurnaam. - Sir. - Torch.
This grass is green in color.
And you don't find green grass in the desert.
But across the border in Pakistan, you find such grass.
[Gun Cocking]
[Gunshot]
[Groaning in pain]
Officer, shoot him!
Why don't you shoot him!
Shoot him, I said!
Shoot! Why don't you shoot him!
It's an order! Shoot him!
[Gunshot]
[Retching]
Why are you vomiting! What is wrong with you!
Maybe he has seen death for the first time, sir.
So tell him to get habituated to it.
He... he can't be Major Veerbhan Singh's son.
Forget killing the enemy...
...he just vomits after seeing their blood.
[Growls]
Dharamveer, we don't win the battle by becoming a martyr!
We win it by shooting our enemies!
You have to kill them!
There at the back.
Rafiq, I'd seen a movie.
In that movie when Pran sees a gun in Dev Anand's hand...
...he says that this is not a kid's toy, child.
[Laughs]
What's the matter, lieutenant sir? You're not sleeping.
Dharamveer.
Your father had become a martyr in 1965's war.
After all he was in the army.
Do you really think that Indian army...
...was responsible for your father's death?
Yes.
Then why did you join the army?
Giving me the oath of his love...
My father had told me to join the army only.
Why did he do this?
Because the love of country was the greatest love for him.
And in the obsession of that love...
...he tied son in the chain of this uniform.
He gave me a gun and told me to kill the soldier before me.
Soldiers who like me, is some mother's son.
I've never seen him in my life. He has never wronged me.
Whose name also I don't know.
After all, why? For what?
Because if you don't kill him, then he'll kill you.
He'll cross your body and step on your motherland.
And your free motherland...
...will again be tied in the chains of slavery.
We don't even glance at other's land.
But we're not so worthless...
...that somebody glances at our motherland...
...and we just keep quiet.
No, sir. No. Never.
Be alert!
Keep your eyes on the enemy. Don't even blink your eyes.
Forget these serious talks.
Dharamveer, you're a young officer.
Your mother must have seen a girl for you.
Yes. - Did you see her?
Yes. - You liked her?
The greatest thing is that she liked me.
[Laughs]
Now you're caught. Tell me, what happened, how it happened.
What was to happen?
After my commission, I returned to my village.
The bus stopped and...
Aunty!
Aunty, he has come! He has come!
He has come! Aunty, he has come!
Are you telling the truth? - Goddess's promise. Come.
Come.
Careful.
Mother.
What is there on these feet? Embrace me.
Embrace me, my child. Embrace me. I'll be peaceful.
And each part of my body will bless you.
Greetings.
How are you?
You've started shaving. My son has grown up.
No matter how old I become. I will be a kid for you.
You've become so weak. The army doesn't give you proper food?
He's quite healthy, aunty. He's not weak. - You don't know.
What mother's hands can see that your eyes can't see.
Fine, aunty. Don't take tension.
I'll not cast an evil eye on your son.
What I had to cast, that has already happened.
What are you saying? I don't understand.
It's good that you didn't understand. Let's go.
What are you doing? - Let's go.
Aunty, my parents have also come.
Congrats. Dharamveer has become an officer.
Wish you the same.
God bless you. - God bless you.
Congrats.
Heartfelt thanks to God that Veerbhan's house...
...is again filled with happiness.
May God fill this house with happiness...
...of Dharamveer's marriage soon.
I'll go and prepare tea.
[Laughs]
Take this.
I've eaten many mangoes. But not as juicy as this one.
Its juice contains love. Fool.
I'll go and on the grass. Dear, have lunch and then go.
Dear, you both eat. I'll go and take a round of the field.
[Clears throat]
[Laughs]
What are you doing?
[Screams]
What are you doing? - Why did you throw the mango juice on me?
Forgetting the whole world, you're eating mango. - Why?
You aren't even aware of the people around you.
Don't you like mangoes? - No.
Then what do you like? - Shall I tell you?
Yes. - Shall I tell you? - Yes.
Second lieutenant Dharamveer.
Mother! Mother!
Kammo! Kammo, come back! - Mother! Mother!
Kammo, I'm coming!
[Laughs]
Kammo! - Mother!
Kammo! Kammo, come back! Kammo!

You've returned, son. - Yes. What are you sewing?
The chaplet for my son. - Chaplet?
Yes. - For my wedding?
Of course. Who do I have apart from you?
But have you selected a girl for me?
What is there to see?
There is only one girl who has won our hearts. - Who?
Who else? Our sweet Kammo.
That arrogant one? - What?
Yes, that arrogant one. I won't marry her.
What are you saying? - What you heard, mother.
This can't happen. You'll have to marry Kammo only.
And my decision is that I won't marry her! No, no!
Why are you flaring up? What is wrong in Kama?
You don't see anything bad in her.
Can that shameless be an officer's?
Why are you breaking the vessels? Why are you so angry?
Why will I not be angry?
Again and again I'm saying that I don't like that girl.
And you're droning the same thing. Kamla. Kamla!
Don't do this, dear.
Kammo and her family had been dreaming...
...since a long time to get you married with Kamla.
For somebody's dream, I can't ruin my life.
Fine. I won't insist.
I'll go and apologize to Chaudhary sir.
They had been hoping since the time you both were kids.
God knows whether they'll forgive me or not.
Where are you going, mother? - Leave me.
I was kidding. - Are you saying the truth?
Yes mother, I was just kidding.
Do you like Kamla? - Yes, mother. I like her...
God bless you. I'll get you both engaged tomorrow only.
[Folk song]
Dharamveer! Dharamveer! Just now I heard the news on the radio.
There is possibility of war at the border. It's an emergency.
All the soldiers' holidays have been canceled.
And they're been called back.
Dharamveer, what's the matter? Why has the singing stopped?
Do sing. - You all go to your houses.
Why...? Dharam.
Why are you all going? Dharma, dear.
Why are they returning back?
Sit, mother. - Where's Kammo?
Sit. - What happened? Tell me. What's the matter?
Mother, my holiday is cancelled. I'll have to return.
Where? - There is going to be a war at the border.
Dear, won't you wear the chaplet?
The chaplet is still not completed. Sew it.
I'll wear it when I come back.
Mother! [Crying]
No, no.
I... I won't let you go. - Don't be stubborn, mother.
You do know. Even if I want to stay, I can't.
No! No!
Dear, please have some pity on your mother.
I don't have that eyesight left that I'll wait for you.
And I don't have the tears to shed in your remembrance.
Don't create more hurdles on my path, mother. I'll have to go.
I'll have to go. - No! No! No!
I'll have to go. - No! No!
I'll have to go. - No! No! No!
I won't let you go. I won't let you go.
[Thunder rumbling]
I won't let him go. I won't let him go.
I'll stop him. I'll stop him.
I won't let him go. I won't let him go.
No, I won't let him go.
I'll stop him. I won't let him go. I won't let him go.
Kammo, you and here? - [Chuckles]
You had thought that you'll leave without informing anybody, hadn't you?
But I had decided that I'll see you while leaving.
So that I can see you when you'll return. I hope you don't mind.
If I give you company till the bus stand. - Come.
I won't let him go.
I'll stop him.
I won't let him go.
Kammo. I want to say something to you. - Yes.
Kammo, if I don't ever come back, then you marry somebody else.
[Laughs]
You're laughing? - I remembered something.
Once when I'd gone to Agra, I saw a madman...
...behaving strangely on the streets.
Sometimes he used to look back.
And then he used to close his eyes with both the hands.
Then slowly he would look left and right.
And then he would sit on the ground angrily.
And he would start punching.
Sometimes left, sometimes right.
Sometimes back, sometimes front.
Then he would start running. Then stop.
He would look behind and then lie down.
Then abruptly he would stand up...
...and start turning around in circles.
You know what he was doing?
He was trying to escape from his shadow.
[Laughs]
[Sighs]
Fool. I'm your shadow.
You can't escape from me.
[Horn blares]
I'll leave.
Listen!
Take care of yourself.
[Dharamveer] 'I didn't have the courage to look back at her from the bus.'
'For a long time she must have stood there looking at the bus.'
You heard my story. Will you say your story or not?
My story is the same. One King and one Queen.
I'm a Rajput. My ancestors had ruled this corner of the earth.
I'm in royal company. I'm sitting with a King.
Youth called love.
And love called Phulgawar.
She was my neighbor's daughter.
She came to my house as a bride.
I can't forget that wedding night.
[Knock on door]
Sir, there is a command for you from the headquarters.
'Leave cancelled. Emergency declared.'
'Report on duty immediately.'
[Bhairav] 'Before my eyes was my bride.'
'And on my hand was the calling of my motherland.'
Fine. I'll leave for the border in the morning. - Sir.
Thanks.
What's the matter? BSF's had come so late at night.
They had come to give their good wishes for wedding.
Does wedding wishes make someone so sad?
People say, why do you cry? Because my face only is like that.
Look, don't say anything bad about my husband.

[Music]
Dharamveer, what if we don't return?
Have faith, Bhairav Singh. We'll surely return.
Otherwise what answer will God give to...
...Phulgawar's vermillion and Kamla's youth?
Sir, Pakistani's informer's call.
In our frequency? - Yes, sir.
Can you trace this dog?
As per my guess they should be within a radius of 10 kms.
And towards western direction. - Let's go.
Where the hell is he going!
I don't know, sir, where he has gone.
Bring the jeep. - Yes, sir.
That side, sir.
They should be around those houses.
This is house number 20.
The Indian Soldiers strength in Longewala is around 120.
[Goats bleat]
[Gunshot]
[Gun Cocking]
[Gunshot]
Okay lieutenant, okay! - Leave me!
That man has died. He has died!
Sir, you told me to get used to it. I've got used to it.
I think the villager is wounded.
He's not wounded but dead.
Give away the dead body to its family members.
If no one claims it then bury it. - Sir.
Dharamveer!
I am recommending you to the CO for the Gallantry award.
Thank you sir.
Who is he? - He is dead. He was an informer to the enemy.
Who killed him, sir?
This boy has finally matured into a man.
Alpha 1 to Delta 1, is the border pillar clear? Over.
Delta 1 to Alpha 1. Yes everything is clear.
No act of the enemy is seen. Over.
Over and out.
[Chuckles]
Have the Pakistanis gone mad that
they will cross the border and come here?
They will go to Punjab or Kashmir...
...where there is greenery and happiness.
When a jackal is about to die it runs towards the city.
Where is a city here?
There is only sand here in the desert.
Here even if the person does not want to eat sand, eats it.
Hey however this land is, it is ours.
That is fine. What is there in this land?
She just gives birth to plants like cactus and poisonous scorpions.
Maybe you are not aware that mother earth...
...also gives birth to brave people too.
[Chuckles]
They must not be worth anything. - No!
They are those who make other people lose.
What do you mean?
If you weren't a Subedar of the army then...
...I would teach you a lesson.
IS it?
Here it is. Now I am not a Subedar also.
Tell me, what do you want to say?
My actions are mightier then words.
You abused my mother earth! You abused my mother!
- Stop it!
Stop. - Rascal! - Stop it! I say stop it!
I am not going to tolerate this. You!
And you too. - Sir, he abused my mother.
And this earth is my mother, sir.
And this rascal is calling it good for nothing.
She only gives birth to scorpions and cactus plants.
Sir, I ask you something.
Don't children love their mother even if she is ugly.
Don't they respect her?
No sir. He has abused my mother! Mother earth!
Stop it! Don't disobey my orders!
Sorry sir.
Mathuradas, apologize to Bhairav Singh.
Bhairav Singh, embrace him by taking him as your brother.
What are you waiting for? - Come on!
I apologize.
[Engine roar]
Will we ever see action, sir?
We are tired waiting for the enemies.
[Chuckles]
I hope you all never see action. Understood?
Sir, may I ask you a very personal question?
Yes, go ahead but don't make it too personal.
Sir, why didn't you marry?
[Andy] 'I thought I would be a free bird.'
'But I met a female who wouldn't bow down in front of anyone.'
It is fine if you don't believe in God.
But does even his name irritate you? - Yes.
I am irritated with everything that...
...human has made for himself and God is one of them.
There must be something, some power before which you bow down.
No! I don't bow down to anything.
God is still a far-fetched thing...
...but I will teach you to bow down in front of a human.
Will you teach me?
Try it! - Definitely.
Impossible. - Want to bet?
What will you give?
Okay. Coffee. - Roger. But only one cup.
We will split it. We will share something.
I like your confidence. Done.
Fine then.
Tomorrow morning at 08:00 hrs...
...you will wait at one place for 5 minutes.
Where?
[Engine roar]
Hi guys. - Hi!
I don't bow down to anyone. - Sir, what happened?
Dead duck.
[Laughs] - Sir, trouble!
You rascal! - Language lady.
You scoundrel! I can kill you. That was cheap.
Is this a way to make someone bow down?
But at least you did bow down.
Look Mister, anyone would bow down because of the fear of death.
Okay you may call it that. God won't feel bad about it.
I am sorry. - Nothing will happen with a sorry.
That was cheap. I hate you. I won't see you again.
I won't see you.
I don't want to speak to you ever again. - I am sorry.
Never! Never! - I am sorry.
I don't want to speak to you.
Rupali! Hey! Watch out! Watch out! - [Screams]
[Andy] 'I won her heart. And I lost my heart. I decided to marry.'
If you come to my marriage them. You will have to dance.
[Laughs] - Of course! Absolutely, sir.
Dharamveer! My son!
Dharamveer! Dear!
See, what have I got for you?
Dharamveer, dear! - Mother!
Sir, the movement of our army has started.
Now the time is coming close.
We don't have to wait that long for the enemies.
'This is the All India radio. The news.'
'The prime minister Mrs. Indira Gandhi today asked...
...the so called big nation on the basis of their color superiority...
...not to order India to do what they wish.
The times have past when any nation sitting 3 or 4000 miles away...
...would give orders to Indians.
Mrs. Gandhi said.
Today we will do what is best in our national interest.
And not what once so called...
You understand everything, sir.
But tell us also that when will the war begin?
These enemies neither even come forward.
Nor do they even let go of our lives.
Ghuram, be calm! Be calm!
We are here since many months, sir.
We are very tense.
Now whatever has to happen, let it happen, sir.
If the enemy doesn't come forward then let him go to hell.
Let us move ahead at least.
Nothing is in our hands, Varyam Singh.
You just take care of your position.
Jai Hind, sir! - Jai Hind, sir! - Jai Hind!
Is everything alright?
Subhedar sir, has my holiday been sanctioned or no?
What is such a grave problem that you want to go home soon?
The problem is this that my wife is dying due to cancer.
There is nobody over there even to feed water to my child.
We are just lying idle over here since so many months.
I neither even receive any letter here.
I can understand your feelings, Mathuradas.
Hey! The postman is here. He is here.
There is letter for everyone.
Hey, everybody come.
Hey! The letters are here. - Lets go.
Hey, come! Take your letter.
Hey! Where is my letter?
Ajit Singh!
Commandant Bhairav Singh.
Mr. Yashpal. Mr. Dharmal.
Captain Ratan Singh.
Harvinder! - My aunt has sent a letter.
Mangal Singh! Gyan Singh!
Brinda Singh!
Soldier Kartar Singh!
Lance Nayak Mangal Singh.
Hey, Hari Singh! Look, my brother Nanu has passed.
Wow! Amazing!
[Clears throat]
Mastram-ji. - Yes.
What is this? - It's a letter.
You tell me. - It's a letter.
You fool!
Have you seen so much happiness on my face? - No.
Hey, soldiers! My holidays have been sanctioned.
I am going home. Yeah!
Hey, Varyam Singh. What is the time?
Hey! What is the time? - 1.45.
It's time for the train to leave now. Goodbye!
Goodbye! - Goodbye! - Goodbye! Goodbye!
Hey. Ranjit!
Hey, brother Ranjit.
My holiday has been sanctioned I am going back to the village.
Do you want to convey any message to your father?
Tell him that everything is fine here.
All right then. Goodbye! - Goodbye!
Hey, Manjeet! Manjeet!
Give me five! Give me five!
My holiday has been sanctioned. I am going home.
Very well! So finally you have got your holidays!
The people, who sit here with frown faces, sit over here only.
[Laughs]
Hey, Sukhdeva! Sukhdeva, I am going home.
Do you want to convey any message to your family members?
Ask them to keep writing the letters. - Very well! Very well!
Goodbye! Goodbye! I am leaving.
Ratan Singh-ji, my holiday has been sanctioned.
Very well! Finally you have got your holidays!
Go. Take care of your wife.
Mathuradas-ji, you are happy that you are going home.
But this unwanted pride that you are portraying...
...in front of your fellow brothers, it doesn't look good.
Your holiday has been sanctioned...
...because there is a problem at your house.
But who doesn't have a problem in this world?
The other name of life is problem.
Tell me, there are some people among our fellow brothers...
...whose widow mother is blind.
And her alone son has been lost in this dust of the deserts.
There are some people whose mother's ashes are waiting...
...that her son would win the war and come back.
And then immerse it in the holy Ganges.
Somebody's old father is counting the last moments of his life.
And he daily postpones death thinking that...
...the one who will light my final pyre is on the faraway border.
If they all will give an excuse about their problems...
...and go on a holiday then how will we win this war?
Tell me! Is it possible to win the war then?
Mathuradas, before I term you as a national betrayer...
...and shoot you, run away from here.
Sir is absolutely right.
He should not have been over enthusiastic like this.
Major sir is like a coconut. A coconut.
He is soft from inside and hard from the outer side.
Bhagiram. - Yes, tell me.
Why had you gone to get the mail?
Hey! Who will write a letter to you?
You used to say that you don't have anybody of your own.
Hey, you scum! Hey! Even this is my family, right?
Absolutely!
Even if we do not share a blood relationship...
...but we at least share a bond of love, isn't it? - Yes.
When they receive their letters then...
...some people have tears in their eyes.
And some people laugh.
And even I cry and laugh along with them.
[Laughs]
Everything else is fine. It's amazing!
Hey! What's the matter? You are laughing a lot.
Is it our sister-in-law's letter? - Yes, it's hers.
But it is very good. Will you hear it? - Is it about that news?
Hey, no! That news is not possible here.
She writes that our uncle from Karnal has passed away.
Everything else is fine.
The cow had given birth to a calf.
He died as soon as he was born. - Everything else is fine.
It is four days ca Munni's fever has not reduced.
Babloo has fallen down from the bullock cart.
He has got a fracture in his hands. Everything else is fine.
[Laughs]
With God's grace, my son has become four years old now. - Really!
Do you know what is he asking me to bring along...
...when I return home? - What is it?
He tells me that father, when you come back home...
...then bring a battle tank of the enemy along with you.
We both will together play with it.
[Laughs]
What has your son written? His handwriting is very beautiful.
He writes good matter also.
He writes that our master says that...
...the people who stay on the other side of the border are same like us.
They wear the same clothes as we do.
They speak the same language as us.
Father, if this is the truth then why do they fight with us?
Father, if the war will be over then come home soon.
I miss you a lot.
[Kamla] 'Dear Dharamveer, since you have gone.'
'You have not written even a single letter.'
'Are you angry with me?'
'The entire world maybe angry with me...'
'...but you do not be angry with me. Otherwise I will be angry at life.'
'I had gone to your house.'
'Your mother is fine. But she is definitely very sad.'
'She always keeps on counting the moments of your return.'
'And she just prepares your chaplet.'
'I have told her that...'
'...if your son will tie the chaplet cross his head to get married then...'
'...he will come only to my house.'
'Your Kamla.'
[Ratan's dad] 'Child Ratan Singh! The roof of our house has broken.'
'We try to repair it but the storm strikes here.'
'When there is snow then there is no place for our shelter.'
'If you will take a holiday and come back then...'
'...your house will get a new roof. And we will get our son back.'
'Your mother is saying that before her death...'
'...she wants to see all your happiness completely.'
'You are fulfilling your responsibility...'
'...in terms of the security of the nation.'
'But you are the only support of your parents also. Isn't it, son?'
'Please write to us that when will you return?'
[Camels grunts]
Masti. - Yes.
Keep it here. - Here.
What is the news, Bhairav Singh?
Hey! There are tears in a mighty lion's eyes!
These are the tears of joy.
Tears of joy! What is the good news? Let me also know about it.
My wife has written a letter to me, Bhagiram-ji.
I am going to be a father very soon.
Hey! Congratulations! Congratulations!
Hey, Masti! - Yes.
We have to prepare special food for the company today.
And definitely prepare laddu's.
I will sponsor the booze for everybody.
Watch out, sir! You will have a son! You will surely have a son!
Hey! Even I will have some liquor today.

[Engine roar]
Sir. There is a message from the command.
Bravo to Alpha.
Over and out!
Friends, the enemies have attacked us.
The war is on.
Bhairav Singh. - Sir!
You quickly vacate the village. - The attack has already begun.
You will handle the posts or the civilians. - Sir.
I am handing over this responsibility to you...
...because you understand their language very well.
Do you have any doubts? Sir!
Dharamveer. - Sir.
You go to the border pillar.
Whatever actions the enemies are taking...
...report to me about that. - Sir!
Ratan Singh! Keep the soldiers on alert.
And prepare the posts for the war.
Do not worry, sir!
[Goats bleat]
Let's go. We will march up to the pillar.
Come on. Come on. Sir has called you all.
We have started walking. Why are you pushing us?
What wrong have I done, Lord?
Our belongings are left behind. At least let me carry them.
I have to go to work also.
What is the order, What is the order?
Have all the villagers come? - Yes, sir.
You all know it very well that this is the border.
The war has already begun. The attack can take place anytime.
That is why, you all immediately...
...take your family and your belongings...
...along with yourself and move out from here.
Vacate this village.
But sir, the war is fought with the army.
What is the threat to my life?
That is because the bomb of the enemy's tanks...
...does not carry anybody's name and address.
Do you have any doubt?
[Explosion]
[Camels grunts]
Take them away from the border!
Hey, Masti! Masti!
Bhagiram-ji. - Yes. - Take care of yourself.
Goodbye! - Masti! Hey Masti!
Come on. Vacate the village!
[Explosion]
Bhairav Singh, all the quarters have been blown up.
But they couldn't harm the Goddess' temple.
Ratan Singh-ji, our triumph is absolutely sure.
Because Mother Goddess is with us.
[Explosion] - [Screams]
Run!
Come on. Vacate the village. Vacate the village. Hurry up!
I was asking you all to vacate the village since so long.
Come on, move out. Move out! Hurry up! Hurry up!

Hurry up! Hurry up!
Move out! Don't worry!
Mother! Mother! - Move out!
Mother! Mother!

[Dharamveer] Do you read me! Delta! Delta calling alpha.
[Dharamveer] Delta calling alpha. Do you read me?
[Dharamveer] Come in, Alpha 1. Come in, Alpha 1.
[Dharamveer] This is Delta calling. Come in.
[Dharamveer] This is Delta calling Alpha. Delta calling Alpha.

Alpha to Delta. This is Major Kuldeep Singh. Over!
Sir, the entire tank of Pakistan is entering our regiment.
I understood it.
That is why, there artillery firing.
To suppress the sounds of the tanks.
Sir, should I fire on them, sir?
No, don't shoot. Till I give you the orders.
You follow them like their shadow.
And keep reporting to me.
[Kuldeep] And come back to the post. I need every man on the post.
[Kuldeep] It's an order!
Delta to Alpha! Over, sir!
Over and out!
Hey, sir! Please move out!
What surplus wealth is kept inside that for its sake...
...you are even ready to sacrifice your life.
Move out from here. - No. No. I will not go from here, sir...
...before my father's death, he had given me the holy Koran.
It is lying inside. I had kept it on the earthen slab.
Take this, sir. Let's go now.
You have saved my Koran and brought it out, sir.
But... But you are a Hindu, isn't it sir?
I am a Hindu. That is why I have done a good deed.
By forgetting about oneself, one must take care of others...
...this is what the Hindu religion preaches.
A Hindu has been doing this only since so many years.
Shall we leave, sir?
You leave. Come on. Hurry up! Hurry up!
Come on. Hurry up! Hurry up! Move out!
And some people say that you are a traitor.
Let's go. Let's go. Be careful!
Spread the anti tanks mines everywhere.
And Gurmel, do not worry. Pick it up.
This is an antitank mine.
It doesn't blast with the weight of a human being.
It needs a weight of at least thousands of pounds...
...which only a tank has.
Come on. Spread them all over.
Alpha to Bravo. Alpha to Bravo.
You have an emergency call from Air command!
They want you to call back immediately. Over!
Get me to the command headquarters immediately. Fast!
'Andy'. - Sir.
'The Pakistan Air force has attacked on our airports.'
'We will have to retaliate to them.'
'Prepare for slight impact.'
'Our prime minister can declare emergency at any moment.'
'Which means war at Pakistan.'
Understood, sir!
My boys are ready to go, sir.
I will prepare them for the strike tomorrow morning right now, sir.
'God be with you, Andy!' - Sir!
'All the best.' - Sir! Thank you, sir!
'This is All India radio. The news!'

'...Avantipur and Uttarlaye in Barmer airfields.'
Gentlemen, briefing.
'According to the PTI, Agra and Ambala were also bombed.'
'Government of India has responded...'
Boys, as you all have heard it on the radio.
The war has already been declared.
The enemy has started attacking on our air bases.
We have to retaliate to them now.
That is why, along with the first sunshine early in the morning...
...tomorrow we will attack on Rahim Yaar Khan base.
We will head out at 500 feet AGL.
And before crossing the border...
We will come down to 200 feet AGL.
The runaway lies east and west.
So we will head north... - [Alarm blaring]
We have a red alert, boys!
Nobody moves! I will take the aircraft to the base myself.
But, sir... - I don't want to lose any of you fine pilots...
...through this stupid raid. Ok.
This is an order!
[Explosion]
Delta to Alpha! Delta to Alpha! Come in, sir.

Sir, they are heading towards Longewala.
They are moving towards our post.
They will attack on our post, sir. Over!
[Kuldeep] I was sure that they would attack on our posts? Over!
Sir, an RPL is coming here.
Mathuradas. - The one who was misled is back now, sir.
When one returns home in the evening after wandering...
...then he is not known as being misled.
I think that you did not reach home.
I came back from the mid way only sir.
I can leave my wife in any condition.
But I cannot leave my company and my country... in any condition.
After winning the war, I'll definitely...
...get a holiday, isn't it sir?
Definitely! Good hold, Mathura.
Get on to the gun!
Air force station! Air force station, Jaisalmer!
Hand over the phone to CO, sir.
Station command AM. Who is speaking? Over!
Major Kuldeep Singh here, sir. Over!
Yes, major. What is the message? Over!
There is a wing command, sir.
The Pakistani's have surrounded...
...my post Longewala from all the four sides.
And they can attack it any moment.
They have 40 tanks and thousands of infantry.
And I have just 120 soldiers here.
I need air support immediately, sir!
Shit! I wish I could help you, Major.
But unfortunately, you cannot get air support tonight. Over!
Why, sir? Over!
There are only hunter aircrafts here.
And they cannot attack in the night.
I will reach over there with the first rays of the sun...
...in the morning tomorrow. Over!
That's bad news, sir!
How will we hold until tomorrow morning, sir? Over!
I cannot help you, Major!
It's not possible.
You will have to hold on to the post.
I will be there with the first light of the morning.
All the best! Good luck!
Over and out, Major!
There are so many hours now for the morning to arrive.
What is the matter, sir?
Nothing, Gurnaam Singh.
Our testing times are here.
I hate you. You can't fight in the night.
Cannot fight in the night. Bloody hell! You cannot fight in the night.
Boys, briefing!
Unfortunately, enemy tanks have surrounded Longewala post.
They have surrounded Longewala.
Our boys at Longewala BOP are under their grip.
Our job is to release their grip till the first light of the morning.
All you boys and myself will take off...
...with the first light of the morning.
And head to Longewala.
All along Ramgarh road.
None of our tanks are there.
So keep your eyes open.
And whichever tank you see, just hit them.
Hit them. And hit them hard.
Any doubts? - No, sir.
Fine. Let's get back to our base in the morning.
And keep our fingers crossed.
And pray for those 120 soldiers who are facing death.
Ratan Singh! Ask the company to fall in.
Tonight is a test for us.
Because the Air force cannot come...
...for our help until tomorrow morning.
And there is still a lot of time for the morning to arrive.
Soldiers, the enemy is standing in front of us.
We are 120 soldiers.
And they have come with their entire battle tank regiment.
The command has asked us to quit the post and move back.
But then too they have asked me to take the final decision.
And I have decided that I, Major Kuldeep Singh...
...will not quit my post.
Now I leave your decision up to all of you.
The people who want to quit this post can quit.
Sir, listen to my decision first of all.
Let there be anybody or no but I will not leave...
...my motherland in other people's hand and go.
I will preferably die, sir. I won't go back.
Bhairav Singh, today you have spoken about death...
...but never speak about it once again.
The history is the evidence that nobody...
...has triumphed the war by dying on the battlefield.
A war is triumphed by killing the enemy.
I took the holidays but I did not reach home, sir.
I have come back from mid way to support...
...my company in facing the enemies.
I did not come here to hear just this...
...that the command has ordered me to step back.
Shoot me, sir. But I am not ready to follow these orders.
I can understand your feelings, Mathuradas.
But the command also might have thought...
...about the matter before passing the order.
We are only 120 soldiers.
And our enemies are 2000.
That's no problem, sir!
The brave men are always sufficient.
Sri Guru Gobind Singh has said that...
...I will make a sparrow face an eagle.
Only then my name will be proved to be Gobind Singh.
Sir, when a sparrow can face an eagle.
So then we are human beings after all.
We will not leave! - We will not leave!
We will not leave! - Nobody will leave!
So should I assume that you all will support me...
...and shall fight the enemy? - Yes, sir.
After taking this decision, if any one of you will try to escape...
...then I will shoot him.
God forbid that if my opinion will change and...
...I will try to escape from here thank you all must kill me.
This is the order of your commanding officer!
Praise the Lord! - Praise the Lord!
Come on. Take hold of your positions.
Alpha to Delta. Alpha to Delta.
Come in. over!
Delta to Alpha. Sir!
[Kuldeep] Listen to me very carefully. - Sir.
The command is very well aware about our position.
They have left the decision up to me.
That do we prefer to step back or fight against them?
I want to know about your opinion. Over!
Maybe you have forgotten, sir that I am Major Veerbhan's son.
I cannot even think about stepping back.
I expected the same from you.
Over and out!
Come here, bastards!
Until I will not order you all, nobody will fire.
Let these rascals come a little bit near.
Why the hell have we spread the mines then?
[Explosion]
Hail Mother India!
Stay back! Wait over here only.
Don't move!
I think the Indians have spread the anti tank mines.
Nobody will move ahead.
Praise the Lord! - Praise the Lord!
Hail the Great Almighty! Praise the merciful Lord!
I think that our information has proved to be false.
120 soldiers are not present over here.
There is an entire battalion of 600 soldiers.
Kuldeep Singh! Your death is approaching you.
Either surrender in front of us along with your companions.
Or else wish for your final desire.
And ask your battalion also to do the same.
Because you cannot be saved.
Hey! You are Ghulam Dastagir, isn't it?
The famous goon of Lahore.
The birth of a foul drain.
Let's see which time will come?
Either I will wish for my last desire...
...or you will read your final prayers.
And I threaten you that if you will come ahead then...
...I will send you back to that same dirty drain.
From where you have originated.
Hey! Why are you silent now?
Give him an answer!
Fire!
Standing for order, sir.
Fire!
Change position!
[Rapid gunfire]
Change position!
[Explosion]
[Grunting]
Be strong.
Hey, Das!
Mathura! Mathura!
Das! Das!
Hey! Hey!
[Explosion]
Das! Das!
[Rapid gunfire]
[Explosion]
Hey, Bhagiram, you!
Are you surprised to see me?
Hey! There is a gun in your hand!
Hey! If a soldier will not have a gun in his hand...
...then what else will he have?
But I have always seen a spoon in this soldier's hand.
Hey! It is the greatness of that spoon only...
...that you have eaten so much food and become so strong.
Now just look at the greatness of this gun.
At least some of the enemies will be definitely killed with it.
Hey, you rascal!
If anything will happen to you then who will feed me?
Hey, Bhagi! - Yes.
You remember that after retiring from the army...
...we have to put up a hotel, isn't it?
In a partnership of 50-50.
Only on one condition. - What?
That you will not eat food in that hotel.
Hey! How is that possible?
Then we will not have an equal partnership.
You will have a share of 10% and 90% will be mine.
Why? Why? Why?
Because you will eat the food equivalent to that share.
[Rapid gunfire]
[Empty gun clicks]
The magazine of the gun has spoiled right now.
[Gunshot]
Mathuradas! No!
Das!
[Screams]
Das!
Das! Das! Come with me.
No, Das!
Mathura!
Das!
Das! No, Das!
Bhairav Singh, you wanted a spring, isn't it?
Take this spring.
Fire at them! Fire at them!
Bhairav Singh, if this land is your mother.
Then it is my mother also.
If possible then convey this message...
...to the mother of my child.
Tell her... Tell her that I am her criminal.
In this life... In this life...
...I am repaying the favors of my motherland.
In my next life, I will surely repay her favors.
In my next life, I will repay her favors.
Das! No! No!
Bhairav Singh, take hold of the MMG.
Come on, get up and move.
Bhairav Singh, take hold of the MMG.
Move! - Yes, sir! Yes, sir!
This is our motherland, Das!
[Rapid gunfire]
You scoundrels!
Delta to Alpha. Delta to Alpha. Come in.
[Gurnaam] I am unable to hear you, sir. Speak a little louder.
[Gurnaam] Over! - Gurnaam! We are coming to the post.
We are coming in.
I need covering fire, Gurnaam.
I need covering fire.
I repeat. I need covering fire.
[Gurnaam] Yes, sir. Over!
I want covering fire, Gurnaam. Over!
None of the enemies should survive.
Sir, Dharamveer sir is coming to the post.
He is asking for covering fire.
Come on. Move!
Dharamveer sir is coming.
Provide him with covering fire!
[Rapid gunfire]
Fire at them!
Come on, Dharamveer! Move!
Move, Dharamveer! Move!
Come on! Dharamveer, come on!
[Explosion]
Come on, Dharamveer! Move!
Dharamveer, move!
Come on. Move, Dharamveer!
You go and handle the next post. Come on!
Dharamveer, remember that great personality.
Remember Major Veerbhan!
Remember your father!
[Gun Cocking]
When I will make one man fight against lakhs of them.
Only then I will preach Guru Gobind Singh's name.
Hey, I will kill you!
Everybody bow down!
Hey, Ratan Singh! Ratan Singh!
[Explosion]
Ratan Singh! Ratan Singh!
Ratan Singh!
- Bhagiram.
After today you will not have to cook food for ten people.
No! No! God forbid! - You know very well.
Hey, Ratan Singh! Ratan Singh!
Hey! Please do not break your agreement and go.
Please wait my partner.
Bhagiram, you definitely open the hotel.
And I accept your partnership of 90% and 10%.
But definitely keep sending the money to my parents.
They do not have anybody else in this world...
Hey! What are you...
Ratan Singh!
Sir, when I will make a sparrow face an eagle.
Only then I will preach the name of Gobind Singh.
Hey! You have left your friend and gone away!
You have left your friend and gone away!
[Crying]
Why doesn't this night pass away quickly?
Shit! Why is this the longest night?
This MNG gun has troubled us a lot.
Ruin this completely!
[Explosion]
Bhairav Singh! Are you fine?
Yeah! Bhairav Singh!
Look... Look...
Look, they have stepped on my motherland.
Mother, Mother, I am coming, mother!
I am coming!
Bhairav Singh! Come back.
Come back, Bhairav Singh!
Come back!
Bhairav, it's an order! Come back.
Come back, Bhairav Singh!
Come back!
Fire at him!
Fire at that rascal!
[Gunshot]
[Laughs]
Mother, give me strength!
Give me strength, mother!
Give me strength!
This scoundrel has an antitank mine.
Move the tank behind! Move it behind!
Move the tank behind!
[Explosion]
Mother!
Hold the fire! Hold the fire!
Soldiers, move ahead!
The enemy is in front of us.
We have to triumph over them.
Acquire hold over their posts!
Charge!
[Rapid gunfire]
[Gunshot]
Hey! Did you get scared of us?
That you're running away like cowards?
Nobody will fire at them.
Until our companions return back.
Sir, Dharamveer sir has been hit by the bullet.
Dharamveer is still alive. Give him the covering fire.
Dharamveer!
You had told me, sir to remember my father, isn't it?
Remember Major Veerbhan!
He has come, sir. My father has come to take me.
Hold on, Dharamveer!
In a matter of few minutes, the morning will arrive.
You will have to survive, Dharamveer!
Hold on!
'Dharamveer!'
Don't stop me, mother!
Let me go.
Father calling me.
Don't stop me.
Dharamveer!
Satnam!
Gurmel!
Ranjeete!
O Sachinder!
Gurnaam!
Sir, come here soon, sir.
He is still alive, sir.
Do not kill me, sir.
You have the sake of the Almighty.
You have the sake of your Lord.
Do not kill me.
I have small children.
What is the name of your children? - Khalid!
And Aasma.
The names are very sweet.
Let me know about the plan of your army.
I am just an ordinary soldier, sir.
The top officers make the plan.
They had said that...
...we would have the morning breakfast in Jaisalmer.
We will eat the afternoon lunch in Jodhpur.
And we will have dinner in Delhi.
I swear by the Almighty, sir.
I swear by the Holy Koran, sir.
I am just aware about this information.
Do not kill me, sir! I don't want to die.
We will not kill you.
The way we are the soldiers of our country.
You are the soldier of your country.
We will behave with you like a soldier only.
Give him some water!
Somesh, what is the time?
Sir, exactly one hour is remaining for the sunrise.
Let's go.
Pakistani soldiers!
If you will triumph in this war then...
...you all will be known as a brave man.
If you will embrace death...
...then you all will be known as martyrs.
Do not bother about the anti tank mines.
Move ahead with the tanks on the posts.
Move ahead!
'They say that they will have breakfast in Jaisalmer.'
'Today we will prepare a breakfast out of them.'
'Guru Maharaj has said that one Khalsa...
...equivalent to one lakh of them.'
'Today the time has come to prove his preaching's right.'
"India! India! India!" - "Praise the Lord!"
"India, my dear! My dear, India!"
"India! India! India!"
I am going in. - "India! India! India."
"India, my dear! My dear, India!"
[Explosion]

[Andy] 'If it's only me then who am I?'
'If its only you then who are you?'
"India! India! India!"
"India, my pride! My self-esteem!"
"My dear, India!"
Run! Run! Fighter planes are come!
"India! India! India!"
"India, my pride! My self-esteem! My dear, India!"
Hello! Hello, Mr. Nadeem. Where is the force?
The Indian Air Force has bothered us too much.
They are ruining us very badly.
Most of our tanks have been ruined!
"India, my pride! My self-esteem! My dear, India!"
[Music]
Sir! Sir! We have triumphed in the war.
The enemies are escaping. We have won the war!
Sir. Sir. Dharamveer sir!
[Wailing]
"The war is fought only for a few moments."
"The life cries for so many years."

"Those bullets that have been fired upon."
"O wind, you are the message of love."
"Helplessness is spread over all the wounds."
"These dying kids in our hands."
"The mother's cries in the nights."
"This society is dead. This community is dead."
The faces are of stone now. The hearts are of stone now."

"All these monuments of destruction..."
...are all on your path as well as my path."
"They say that until when will you nurture..."
"...this python of hatred on the border?"
"This python of hatred!"
"Until when will you nurture this python of hatred on the border?"
"In our respective farms, instead of rice and wheat...
...why do we cultivate these ammunitions?"
"When in both our lanes, some hungry kids cry."
"Some hungry kids cry."
"Come on. Let us vow now that we will not lead to a fight."
"And we will look forward to that day..."
"The day when your country will also prosper."
"The day when even my country will prosper."
Even your country as well as my country."
