Today's biggest news comes straight from Kashmir…
Capt. Kartik Sharma has been abducted by the terrorist group.
Sadly, the life of one of our brave soldier's is in danger. I plead…
Capt. Kartik Sharma demonstrated his courage and daring a few days ago
when he captured the dangerous terrorist Abu Bakar.
This is your government's failure.
The defence minister should resign!
I think you forget that under your government's rule…
Right now, we're standing outside Capt. Kartik Sharma's house,
and we're trying our best to talk to someone from his family.
The ISI and Pakistan Army have made Pakistan a failed state.
I think now the time has come to teach them a lesson.
The human rights violation in Indian-administered Kashmir
must be discussed first.
Someone being a terrorist doesn't make them any less of a human.
What about their human rights? I want to--
Human rights are for humans, you bloody clowns.
Colonel,
beef up Mrs. Sharma's security.
-Yes, sir. -Well,
that has been taken of, sir.
Gentlemen, this is Mr. Jagatram Pandav from NSA's office.
Gentlemen.
And, sir, what information do we have about Kartik?
-Nothing much, Jaggi. -Don't worry, sir.
We'll not just get Kartik back.
We'll also get the men responsible for this.
A long time ago…
here in Baramulla,
there was a math teacher.
It was a Sunday.
Master sahab was having lunch…
with his wife and his seven-year-old.
But then…
three Jeeps filled with army men arrived.
They dragged Master sahab
and took him right in front of his wife and kid.
There was no search warrant,
no FIR…
or a crime.
For about four days,
no one knew where Master sahab was.
His wife…
and his son…
went to every police station
and every army base in the area…
begging for mercy.
Finally, after 11 days,
Master sahab's dead body was found near riverside.
Do you know who the kid was?
You.
You were going to get a Sena Medal for doing something equally horrific?
For my bravery.
Bravery, my foot.
Ten of you get together to catch one man,
and you call yourself brave?
We are the brave ones.
Anyway, that reminds me,
your mother is really brave, sir.
Media reporters are swarming your home, but she--
she doesn't seem fazed.
With the Almighty's grace,
we have a lot of friends in Uttarakhand.
All of them are deeply hurt by Surgeon's arrest.
So, please…
help us…
in helping your mother.
Come on, bhaijaan. The army is not known for mercy.
You're wasting your breath.
I've had enough.
Let's chop their heads off and send them to the Indian government.
Sir, please, he's a civilian.
It's the army you have a problem with.
The civilian has been tortured enough. Please let him go.
Please, sir.
Watch your tongue, soldier.
So what if he's a civilian? He's also an Indian.
You must've heard of Saurabh Kalia.
-We stuck a red-hot rod in his ear. -That's enough, Masood.
Please leave us alone for a while.
I need to talk to the captain in private.
Sir, you can see how dire things are.
I cannot control Masood anymore.
Tell us everything you can, please.
Okay, it's alright.
Let's talk about something else.
Why don't you tell me something about yourself?
How did you go from being an IITian to an army man?
And ever since…
INDIAN ARMY
…he fell in love with the army uniform.
I cannot let my only son join the army!
Where do you keep disappearing to?
I haven't had a drop of water, but I can't stop peeing.
You just went, right?
Why are you so nervous? You've done this thrice before.
That is why I'm nervous.
No matter how much you prepare, you forget everything in there.
You got this. Come on.
I'll get the chest number and meet you for breakfast.
Sir, that's the problem. The tyre marks disappear after 300 metres.
-But, Chaitanya? -We have a way to trace it.
So, tyres of this dimension and pattern are used only in these three vehicles,
and this model here is the popular one in Kashmir.
Sir, there's a petrol pump 15 kilometers from the attack site.
-Sohail. -Yes, sir.
Get footage from the petrol pump.
That, there! The white vehicle. Pause the video.
David.
Sir, it's a match.
I think we have found our vehicle.
-And the vehicle number is-- -JK-01-S-19-I3,
which is registered under the name Afzal Ghani.
Yes, sir.
Yes, that vehicle.
But, Jaggi, this is not Lazarous. That's an ODX 30.
Got it, sir. It has the same tyres.
The vehicle's registration is fake.
Sir, 37 vehicles are operating in the valley,
but there's no data on this one.
-This is a fake car. -Listen, David.
Punjab, Haryana, Himachal and Uttarakhand,
check their state records for reports of stolen vehicles of that make.
That might take some time, sir.
You all have only an hour…
where you'll first solve 60 verbal reasoning problems.
You're given an OMR sheet…
where you only mark the answer.
And be careful.
Don't stress yourselves out. Be focused,
and try to solve more questions
because there will be no negative marking in this exam.
After 30 minutes,
the answer booklets will be collected.
Then you will be given 60 non-verbal reasoning questions.
-Clear? -Yes, sir.
All the best. Let's start.
Sir.
Of the 12 vehicles reported as stolen in all of North India,
ten were from Punjab.
We analysed data from the east and the west too.
Most vehicles were stolen in Bengal,
and most modifications happen in Mumbai and Delhi.
Sir, in the last three months, 22,046 vehicles went missing in Bengal,
out of which 130 were ODX 30s.
Sir.
All the vehicles of J&K are clear.
The tyres of a Lazarous 350,
the body of an ODX 30, and a fake registration.
Most definitely, this vehicle was brought in from out of the state.
So that means it must have passed through a toll booth.
Exactly.
Chaitanya, pull up footages from all surrounding toll booths.
Dear candidates, there will be a picture shown to you for 30 seconds.
You will be given four minutes to write a short story about it.
After that, you have to narrate your story
and discuss it with your group to come up with a common story.
Sir, take a look.
I found a vehicle of the same model.
WB-04-CT-5762.
It started from Kolkata, went to Odisha, Chhattisgarh and finally, Maharashtra.
Sir, it was last seen in Mahim, Mumbai, after which it's untraceable.
Who was the vehicle registered to in West Bengal?
Sir, as expected, it's a fake number.
Hello. Round up all the garage mechanics in Mahim.
Whose garage did this car come to?
You don't have a warrant.
-You can't bring us here. -This is against the law!
You can't do this to us. This is unlawful!
-This is wrong. -Wait a minute.
Can you read it?
-Does anyone else need to see a warrant? -No, sir.
Sir, the car… it came in my garage.
He was a Bengali.
And he also… gave me two lakh rupees
to damage the car's chassis number. Yes, sir.
-And then? -And, sir,
he loaded the car's frame on to a big truck and left.
Do you remember his face?
Sir, we have a photo from the Mahim police station.
Here you go, sir.
His name is Jalalludin Ansari.
His father's name is Shamshudin Ansari.
-He's an MLA from West Bengal. -Okay.
Call the local police station.
-Pick him up for questioning. -Sir.
Sir.
Please.
Hello.
Do you people know who my father is?
Yes, the Indian Army, and two of them are here.
And we know how many illegal Rohingyas
reside in your biological father's house back in Bengal.
Now tell us everything you know.
I will die…
before I say a word against my Kashmiri brothers.
I don't know, sir.
I don't know anything about the kidnapping.
I was to only supply a vehicle to Moin.
Where did you meet Moin?
I met him first in Murshidabad.
How is he saved in your phone?
Sir, he calls me every time.
Really, from unknown numbers.
Look at the photo, sir.
That was at Jama Masjid in Delhi. That's Moin and me.
-Jai Hind, sir. -Jai Hind. Have a seat.
Sir, this is a man called Moin. Zero intel about him.
-Did you show this to David and Chaitanya? -Yes. They can't find anything either.
He's completely off the grid. No information about him.
Chest number 47.
Chest number 71.
What do you think?
Did anyone else make it?
Yes, sir!
Om Namah Shivay!
Okay, we have chest number 80.
That's the last one for the day.
So congratulations to all the screened-in candidates.
And to all the screened-out candidates, remember,
Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan,
missile man APJ Abdul Kalam, and Rahul Dravid,
they all were rejected at SSB
but not in life.
So this is not the end of the road.
Work on yourself and come again.
-Jai Hind! -Jai Hind!
The SSB stage is the only process
where they sometimes reject the whole batch.
Last year in Bhopal, they threw out my whole batch.
Don't lose heart, son.
It's a part of life.
You loved to paint when you were a kid.
But you didn't become a painter.
Same with physics.
You were the best.
You absolutely loved physics.
But you didn't become a scientist.
Similarly, if you love the army,
it's not necessary you become an army man.
I love the army too.
I respect the army.
I mean it.
But that doesn't mean I join the army.
Right?
Son…
Einstein said it well
that you cannot judge…
a fish's worth by how well it climbs a tree.
So do what you're good at.
You're so intelligent.
All your teachers would say, "He's a genius!"
So take that path.
Do something with it.
That is all you have to say?
Come on, let's go somewhere.
I'm a little bored.
Shall we go to Kerala?
What a beautiful place!
I've never been there before.
Fine, let's visit your uncle in Chandigarh then.
Dad, come on.
Don't you want to hear him say,
"Kartik, Roorkee is not really an IIT!"
Dad.
Leave it now.
Can you help me?
-With what? -Sudoku.
Why the long face?
Why are you still so sad?
The next exam is five months away. Prepare well this time.
But Dad won't--
He wasn't happy the first time either,
but you took the test.
Listen, I have an idea.
Don't tell him this time.
Just keep preparing for it. Once you clear it, he will be happy.
By the way, wasn't MJ going to recommend a tutor?
Yes, he's…
sent me a location.
When you reach a dead end, you will find Mumma sir
I don't know why he wrote that.
Did you check it out?
Hey, brother! Hello.
Is there a coaching institute here?
MJ, where have you sent me?
MJ was messing with me.
-Man… -Hey, tiger!
You want to meet Mumma sir?
Yes, Mumma sir-- They do coaching here?
-Not coaching, training. -Yeah, right. Training.
I'm here for it. Where do I go for admission?
Right here.
-Here? What's the process? -The process?
Everything has to be earned.
-Yeah-- But how? -Push-ups.
-Push-ups? -Yes.
Nothing is for free.
Has to be earned.
-Okay. -Bag stays.
On your shoulders.
How many, five?
Fifty.
-Five-zero. -Okay, I'll humour you.
But it's okay.
-One. -Hold.
-Hold? -Not like this.
-Then? -Like a gentleman.
On your knuckles.
Okay, buddy.
Let's go.
-One! -One.
-Two! -Two.
-Three! -Three.
-Four! -Four.
-Five! -Five.
-Continue. -Six.
-Continue. -Seven.
Eig-- Hey!
Hey, guys!
-Jai Hind, guys. -Jai Hind, sir.
Who's this new face?
-Sir, Kartik. -Can't hear you!
-Sir, Kartik Sharma. -Run to me.
-What's your name? -Kartik Sharma.
-Kartik, I can't hear you. -Kartik Sharma.
Can't hear you.
Sir, Ka-- Sir, Kartik Sharma!
-Louder! -Kartik Sharma!
Can't hear you!
Kartik Sharma!
Louder!
-Kartik Sharma. -Louder!
Kartik Sharma!
I can hear you.
So, Kartik, who guided you here?
Sir, those three Monk--
Those three monk? They treated you well?
No, sir. They made me do push-ups.
-They did? -Yes, sir.
Good, I'm so happy
that they treated you so well.
Whatever you think about them or me, same to you.
-Be firmer. -Yes, sir.
-One hand. -Yes, sir.
-Louder! -Yes, sir!
Good.
Kartik, why are you here?
-Sir, for SSB coaching. -For SSB coaching.
Kartik, let it be very clear.
I don't train for SSB.
I train for life.
So I give you precisely five seconds.
Think about it, decide and let me know,
you want to prepare for five days' SSB
-or you want to prepare for life? -For life, sir.
-Sure? -Yes, sir.
Second thing, in the campus, there is nothing for free with a guy like me.
There are 100 sitting in front of you. They've all gone through this.
By tomorrow morning, you have to prove your worth.
You have to memorise all 100 names.
Get one name wrong, and you're going back home tomorrow. Is that clear?
-Yes, sir. -Louder!
-Yes, sir! -Go and park your ass.
Sit up straight.
Okay, welcome home. Okay.
-Guys, you know what to do. -Yes, sir!
We got new family member.
You have one night's time, train him well.
Yes, sir!
-Be absolutely, brutally ruthless. -Yes, sir!
The way I have been with you. Okay?
-Yes, sir! -All the best.
I'm Joy. All the best. 99 names more to go.
Five push-ups for my name.
-Five push-ups? -Yeah.
-Nothing is for-- -Free!
-Your name? -Harsh.
-Meera. -Paritosh!
-Paritosh. -One push-up.
Dance, please.
My name is Dhruv… ta-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra!
-What is your name, gentleman? -Kartik Sharma.
-Louder! -Kartik Sharma!
Louder!
-Kartik Sharma! -Rituraj.
-Aarti. -Prashant Chawla!
Your name?
-Kartik Sharma. -Welcome home!
Okay, Kartik.
Enough for the day.
You will all go back to the barrack. I give you precisely…
-ten seconds. How much? -Ten seconds!
In ten seconds, I want you all to disappear like a puff of smoke.
-Clear? -Yes, sir!
Go!
Kartik!
Kartik, go!
Six!
Five!
Four!
Kartik is amongst us. Have you memorised all 100 names?
No, sir.
Your 24 hours aren't up yet.
You still got half the way to go.
Remember the names.
Yes, sir.
Hi, Saksham. Hey, Raghav!
Sorry, I'm a little late.
Kartik is late, guys.
So all of you are getting punished, okay?
Not you. You come, stand here.
This is your day one.
So let's test you. I'll give you a couple of words, make a sentence.
The first sentence that comes to your mind, okay?
The first word is "sexy."
-Sexy? -Yes, make a sentence.
They'll give you only 15 seconds for it.
-You want to be soldiers? -Yes, sir!
Then let me see how hard you've worked mentally and physically.
First, I'll check your core strength.
You'll hang from the wall without grabbing the back.
You'll hang from this edge. Your back against the wall,
and legs raised at right angles. I want smiles on your faces.
Kartik, your back touching the wall
and your legs raised in a straight line. Up, hurry.
I just want a simple sentence. It should be self-explanatory.
Sir, everything which is appealing is sexy.
Bad things also appeal to people, and they appeal faster. Yes?
-Yes, sir. -See, Kartik.
When I ask a simple question,
I need a simple answer. Don't look for a corner in a circle, okay?
-Okay, sir. -In life,
you will always see what you want to see.
You will always hear what you want to hear.
Okay? I'll frame a sentence.
Being honest is sexy.
Not everyone is truly honest.
Being simple is sexy.
-Not everyone is simple. Okay? -Yes, sir.
Being a man is not good enough.
You have to be a man amongst men.
Why do you want to join the Indian Army? They are many other professions.
-Why be an army man? -Sir, it's a calling.
That's a very superficial answer. Give me something concrete
so that I also feel, "Yes, the boy's passionate."
-Sorry, sir. -Don't be sorry. Be better.
Sir, I went through an incident. I was surrounded by stone pelters.
-Yes? -And I had no hope that I'd survive.
A man in an army uniform came to save my life.
So I want to…
-be like that. -Be like what?
Sir, a better version of myself.
Kartik, tell me something about yourself.
Sir, I've come from Uttarakhand, North India.
Wait. You're not North India. You're an Indian from north, okay?
I'm an Indian from north.
What regiment do you wish to join?
-Sir, Maratha. -You're from Uttarakhand,
and you want to join Marathas. Give me a good reason why.
Okay, tell me something about the Maratha regiment.
How many units are they have?
Any gallantry award winners you know from the Marathas?
Any history about the Maratha regiment?
Who's the colonel of the regiment? What is their motto?
What is their war cry?
-I don't know, sir. -You're here for a picnic or an interview?
Sir, I'm here for the interview.
-I can't hear you. -Sir, I-- Sir, I'm here for the interview.
Touch shoulder to ground.
Yes.
I want to overcome fear.
That fear of death, I want to overcome it.
So what have you done for yourself?
The Indian Army isn't here to babysit you.
You have to do some things yourself.
Sir, I never came across the opportunity.
Opportunities don't come by. They have to be created.
Up.
Don't bend your legs. They have to be straight.
Less gaps against the palms.
Go to bed soon.
Then why do you want to opt for this profession?
As I said, sir, that there is something which I want
to overcome, fear in me, and also, I want to serve the nation.
-All hail India, our motherland! -Hail the motherland!
Go, go, go!
-Go! -All hail India, our motherland!
Don't flatten your fingers. They have to be at 90 degrees.
Kartik, hold your fingers like this. Come on.
Don't flatten them. Eyes to the front!
Dad…
Bloody losers!
Grunting and moaning is not the aim!
-And where did you disappear to? -Hello.
Yes, Dad. I'm watching a movie.
My question to you is, what do you want in life?
You want results, or you want regrets?
-Results! -You want results?
-Yes, sir! -How will you get them?
-Consistency. -With hard work!
-And who has to work hard? -I do.
-Starting? -Right now!
-Then bloody do it! -Yes, sir!
Give me one good reason why I should reject you.
Sir, I would want someone who deserves it.
And if I don't deserve it then…
obviously, the person who deserves it should be chosen.
Good. That's a good answer.
-You want to dive in? -Yes, sir!
Go!
A winning attitude helps you win!
A winning attitude helps you win.
-A dispirited mind leads to defeat. -A dispirited mind leads to defeat.
-Ones who give up without a fight-- -Ones who give up without a fight--
-…shame on them! -…shame on them!
-Hi, Kartik. -Hello, sir.
Today's the last day in the campus.
Did you even realise that you're almost done with training?
No, sir.
Since the time you got to the campus,
you've travelled the longest journey of your life.
Eleven inches.
From your head to your heart.
Usually, we only use our heads.
I think now you can also think from the heart. It's stronger now.
-Is it? -Yes, sir.
And despite that, if you ever have doubts,
all you need to do is, just go in front of a mirror,
look deep into your eyes
and repeat what I have taught you.
"Kartik, you have not come this far to go only this far."
Kartik, you have not come this far…
-To go this far. -…to go this far.
Secondly, all you need,
ask yourself, "What would sir do?"
Maybe the voice is softer now,
but when you go back, and close your eyes and listen to my voice,
it will echo in your mind and heart.
Whenever you have a doubt, ask yourself that,
and you'll hear my voice loud and clear.
And you'll find me next to you.
I have observed you quite keenly all these days.
I've seen a lot of potential in you.
You've got that fire in you. You can do it. You will do it.
Anything, Kartik, before leave,
don't keep anything in your head and heart.
If you have doubts, ask me and clear them up.
Sir, what if I fail?
Failure is only in the head.
Until you accept it, there is no failure.
Don't ever think
that you will ever fail.
Be passionate, not desperate.
-You'll do well, make me proud. -Love you, sir.
Be simple,
be confident.
And be yourself. Just the way you are.
Be happy with what you have.
"I'm happy with what I have,
and if I want more, I create it."
Remember our interview?
You said you had no opportunities.
Opportunities won't come to you.
Kartik will create opportunities.
You still haven't given up?
-Dad-- -Enough!
It's either me…
or this job.
If you leave the house for SSB tomorrow…
consider me dead.
Masood, you need to cool down. Just listen to me, please.
I did listen to you. But what did that do? Did he talk?
-I will talk to him. -Parvez is losing his shit!
-It's useless. The time for talk is over. -Masood, give me two minutes!
Where are you going? No, wait!
Masood, please listen to me! Masood!
Masood! Masood, please listen! Where are you taking him?
I gave you 24 hours, bhaijaan.
Sir! Sir, please, take me! Please! Where are you taking him?
-Masood! -Sir, let him go! He's a civilian!
Sir! Sir, please stop him!
Sir! Sir! Please stop him, sir! Please, sir!
Sir, stop that man!
Please, sir! Sir!
Sir, please!
Dad!
