OCTOBER 1999, LONDON

Focus on the target!

Left, right, left!

You're such a boring soldier.

You don't have a gun or a uniform.

And I mean, soldiers usually go to war.

They're not schoolteachers like you.

Some soldiers fight for their country in secret.

Left, right, left!

We don't have fancy watches and pretty girls all around us.

Oh please, Dad!

Anyway, the James Bond era is over.

I want to be Lara Croft and wipe out my enemies.

I have the technique. And the power.

Have you a reason?

Hmm?

Reason first, then fight.

First a reason, then the lesson.

Because those who kill without reason are not soldiers,

they're terrorists.

You gave me a reason,

so I attacked you.

And if you hadn't,

this boring soldier would have remained a teacher.

Come.

Dad, I took the new telescope out for tonight.

Don't forget to add the peri-peri sauce.

- Okay. Finish your breakfast now.

There's great political upheaval.

The latest events have stunned the country.

General Musharraf has taken over PM Nawaz Sharif's government.

Martial law has been declared in Pakistan.

The military coup

was led by our Army Chief General Musharraf.

- The PM's house and the government TV

are now under military control.

This is the third time that Pakistan is under a military dictatorship

- since Independence.

Nawaz Sharif and his brother, Shehbaz...

- Nazar saab, did you see the news? - I'm watching it right now.

I thought I'd never see this situation here again.

Dictatorship cannot replace democracy.

Democracy will never die in Pakistan.

I am certain that democracy will return.

Dad, hurry! We're getting late.

Take care. God be with you.

Take care of yourself too.

Khuda Hafiz.

Oh, no!

Your father is becoming so forgetful.

I left the tiffin in the kitchen.

We're going to watch the meteor shower tonight. Don't forget!

No, I won't!

"Dastambu."

Mirza Ghalib.

It's a book by him.

Your father's favorite book.

"Dastambu" means "bouquet."

Masala French toast?

The way he used to make it.

I know it's your favorite.

- You don't know me, but-- - You're third from the left.

In that photo.

Aatish Rehman.

It was taken on a fishing trip in China.

Father told me.

A fishing trip meaning...

an official mission.

That was our code word.

I was fifteen when he decided to look after me.

Nazar saab was more than a father to me.

This is my most treasured possession.

Your father gifted it to me on my 18th birthday.

I still have it.

Do you know what he advised in bad times?

"We must be gracious in bad times..."

"Because time takes no time to change."

You haven't cried?

Nor you?

Your father didn't teach me how.

Nor me.

Your father would often say...

"The only God for us is our country."

This country will never forget Nazar saab's sacrifice.

You are now the country's responsibility and mine.

School, college, your education... the government will take care of it all.

When you turn 21,

you'll be given an option.

You can follow in your father's footsteps...

or lead a normal life.

I won't wait till I'm 21.

The enemy has given me a reason.

In your shadowy world of spies...

is a woman's shadow allowed?

We agents are nothing but shadows.

Welcome to the world of shadows!

Welcome to the ISI, Zoya.

PRESENT DAY

R&AW HEADQUARTERS, NEW DELHI

I'm reminded of your ex-boss Shenoy's favorite question.

"What keeps a country's peace and its enemies apart?"

Only one man.

After Shenoy, the government gave me the responsibility of asking questions.

The geo-political dynamics are changing rapidly.

Terrorism has a new face.

One of our agents is missing.

For the past two years...

he's been tracking the Taliban and their movements.

He was updating us regularly.

Then suddenly no updates and no sign of him.

No agent has returned alive from the country he's in.

You know that agent.

Gopi.

We're running out of time.

And we need to get him out.

Come on. Let's not try to kill him.

Mission "Time Pass".

Long time no see!

No letter.

No news.

Not a sign from you.

Only the bullet scar you left in my chest.

It wasn't personal.

- It was duty. - He's an Indian!

Don't give him water. He's going to die.

What you doing?

Time Pass.

Stop him!

Get him!

Catch him!

Stop, you fool!

Get him!

Close the gates!

Shoot him!

What the hell!

You mad?

Faraz!

Shoot them with the launcher!

Plan B, Captain! Plan B.

Be there on time, Captain.

I don't want you to be late.

It's a match winning catch!

If you drop it, I won't get back to India on time.

You called the mission to save me "Time Pass"?

Menon is even smarter than Shenoy was.

The treatment will make no difference.

I have no intention of dying in a foreign country.

Let me look outside the window.

Here.

Are we in India?

Not long now.

It's already too late, Tiger.

There's a new outfit.

Far more dangerous than ISIS and LET.

They're planning a big operation in Pakistan.

I have entered all the details on the agency server.

Except for one detail.

We have a double agent who is working for them.

A woman.

Zoya.

We're in India.

Thank you, Tiger.

You've brought me home.

Time of death reported, 4:32 p.m.

ALTAUSSEE, AUSTRIA

Promise you, you're just going to feel a tiny little prick.

That's all it's going to be.

Dad!

Relax!

He has a bad viral infection.

He's very weak.

So, I requested Dr. Hoffman to give him the antibiotic shots at home.

Thanks to him, it's all under control.

Dr. Hoffman, this is my husband.

Nothing to worry about.

He'll be up and running in no time.

But he needs this now.

You stay put, son. Yeah?

Dad! You're scared of an injection?

So how do you do your job?

Sh! Enough.

Don't forget your meals.

I'll see you at the same time tomorrow.

- Yes. - Yeah.

You lost Shenoy sir, now Gopi.

I'm so sorry.

You okay?

I was okay till now.

Now I don't know.

It'll be all right.

As Gopi lay dying,

he mentioned a double agent.

I don't know if it was the truth or a lie.

A dying man never lies, Tiger.

Telescope.

Suspicion has no cure.

Don't be angry.

It's expensive, but it's a good one.

My father had a telescope just like this.

While Junior is resting,

I thought...

I'm gonna teach him.

I love you.

The country's wealth should be spent for the progress of people.

Not on wars.

That is why the government of Pakistan

is willing to cut the defense budget by 50%.

That is, if India reciprocates.

Instead of fighting, let us join hands.

If PM Irani does what she says,

I'll cook you my mother's special dal.

Hope she doesn't get assassinated by sunset.

What are you saying?

She's the first Pakistani politician to do something good.

"Hope she doesn't get assassinated."

I've worked for the ISI.

Politicians don't decide Pakistan's future, the army does.

Nothing will change.

They'll rip her apart.

Pakistan wishes to plant the seeds of peace.

The question is, does India want the same?

- All well, ma'am?

Intel has retrieved Gopi's last updates from the Cloud.

Jibran Sheikh.

Heard of him?

No.

If Gopi was right,

a new militant outfit is about to make an impact in Pakistan.

And... Jibran is their arms supplier.

He was ready to provide us vital intel through Gopi.

After Gopi died, the arms supplier's identity was exposed.

Now he fears for his life.

You care about Jibran's life?

I care about the information he has.

Jibran is in Russia right now. St. Petersburg.

Gopi's source won't go to waste.

Tiger will complete Gopi's mission.

Tell Mr. Jibran to have a light breakfast,

because in two days,

he'll be having lunch with me.

ST. PETERSBURG, RUSSIA

The usual, please.

Of course, sir. Today the coffee not only smells good

but sounds good too.

Take it from the bottom.

Thank you.

Your fan base is pretty good.

Huh?

I'm amazed you're still alive.

Two guys were waiting for you before I came.

Maybe like me, they want you alive.

Maybe?

If no bullet is fired at you till you get to the metro nearby,

then "maybe".

If a gun goes off, you're a martyr.

I'll complain to Menon ma'am.

I'll tell her you comprised a R&AW asset.

If you want to complain, you'd better stay alive, Jibran.

And if you want to live, turn left up ahead.

I'm getting on to the tram. Where are you?

You wanted to complain to ma'am?

I'm looking for a paper and pen for you.

Excuse me.

Shoot her.

Shoot her!

What you waiting for? Kill her!

I didn't risk my life for nothing. Shoot her right now!

Delivery received, Tiger.

I'll inform Menon ma'am.

Tell Menon, the mission is not over. It's just started.

You were right.

A dying man never lies.

It's not what you think.

You were right.

I didn't understand.

Tiger,

listen to me.

Even Gopi didn't know the whole truth.

Tiger,

you and I don't have a choice.

Please believe me.

Why?

Tell me the truth before you die.

No, no, no!

Do you dream when you sleep, Tiger?

Nowadays, I don't know why...

I see the color green in my dreams.

I once consulted a lady psychologist.

She said,

"If you see the color green in your dreams,

"it means healing."

Aatish Rehman?

You have a good memory.

So the psychologist said...

"In your life there is much healing to come."

But healing only follows extreme pain.

And I haven't been hurt recently.

So, I kept wondering

when was I hurt?

And who caused it?

I told you.

You don't need to involve Tiger.

What was your price, Zoya?

The price will be the same...

as yours.

Junior!

What have you done to Junior?

I was just telling him a story, Tiger.

About how I got hurt.

He fell asleep listening to my story.

He's too cute.

Will you hear my story?

Maybe you can save Junior's life.

The story is about a Pakistani fairy

and an Indian free bird.

Shall I call him a free bird?

Or a tiger?

12 YEARS EARLIER

A historic peace summit between India and Pakistan

will take place in Austria led by Pakistan's ISI Chief DG Riaz

and India's Chief of Army Staff General Riberio.

This is the first time in over 60 years

that high level defense experts from both countries will meet.

For the next three days,

the eyes of the world will be on the peace summit in Austria.

You know, Aatish?

Peace.

It's like putting glass bangles on a woman's wrist.

A little extra pressure and the bangle breaks.

But the wrist is never blamed.

The person putting on the bangle is blamed.

Us, in other words.

That's why we need to be completely alert. 24/7.

They'll twist Pakistan's arms,

and you're talking of bangles.

POK, LOC, trade policies,

these issues will be on India's agenda

because India is a nuclear triad country and we aren't.

Sir, if I may...

the summit agenda isn't right.

Aatish, when you become this country's PM,

you can set your own agenda.

Right now, you're the Deputy Director of ISI,

and the agenda of this summit is safety and security.

And you're in charge. Come on. Let's move.

Shaheen.

The Indian delegation's landing time?

Update me, please.

Yes.

Shaheen, here are our and R&AW agents' room numbers.

You might need this.

I have a copy. Thanks.

Such cowardice!

Indian General Riberio's funeral might have to be organized.

Meaning?

How many of our men did the Indians kill in Kargil?

Many. We can't admit to the world just how many.

Today we stand before that same India begging for peace.

On our knees before the enemy.

In modern diplomacy it's called a peace summit, Zoya.

But I have no intention of falling to my knees.

The Indian R&AW Chief and General Riberio are landing in two hours.

Right here on Freyung Street.

In the clean air of Europe,

General Riberio will breathe his last.

You will kill him, Zoya.

If this is some kind of joke,

it's very tasteless.

And if it isn't?

If it isn't,

I will have to stop you.

Zoya Nazar.

My best agent.

Against me?

I might never have had a better mentor than you.

But I'm not your agent,

I am a Pakistani agent.

Anyone who comes in the way of Pakistan's peace,

I will stop them.

Okay!

Let's see how much your mentor has taught you.

Take Zoya to her room.

Strip off all communication.

Put the "Do Not Disturb" sign up.

We'll talk at leisure

while we're watching General Riberio's funeral procession on TV.

Your plan isn't dependent on Zoya agreeing.

I can do the job alone.

There's not just you, Shaheen.

You know I cannot send you.

My love.

Even our unborn child will be fighting for our country.

What better gift could Allah bestow on us?

I'll do it.

Shaheen set off for Freyung Street.

- But I forgot

the Pakistani fairy was skilled.

If the mentor is skillful,

the disciple is bound to learn.

She dialed the room number of an Indian delegate

and got connected to an Indian free bird.

Hello.

We'll talk at leisure

while we're watching General Riberio's funeral procession on TV.

Security compromised.

Get the car, quick!

Alert the General at once.

Clear the street!

We've just heard General Riberio is safe and sound.

The assailant has not been identified as yet,

though it's most likely a R&AW or an ISI agent.

According to our unofficial sources,

this is probably an inside job.

We'll report back as soon we have more details.

Who did you send in my place?

Take off her handcuffs.

Colonel Riaz will be calling soon.

There will be an internal inquiry.

I'll be court-martialed.

Remember! None of you were involved.

Handcuff me.

That's an order.

Go on!

If you're aware of your mistake,

I can talk to Colonel Riaz.

We can still save the peace summit.

It won't come to a court-martial.

Aware of my mistake?

Are you aware of your mistake?

Well, Zoya?

Shaheen is dead.

She was the agent.

She died with our unborn child.

It's all your fault.

If it's all my fault,

why are you surrendering?

You won't get it.

You have no family.

You were...

my family.

Welcome to the peace summit!

Aatish Rehman.

General, I'm deeply grateful to you

that India did not reveal our agent's identity to the press.

The peace summit must proceed, as scheduled.

I can assure you Pakistan wants peace.

Those who want to see the end of Indo-Pak relations

will be served a punishment worse than death.

I gave everything to my country.

And my country snatched everything away from me.

My honor.

My love.

My child.

Why are you looking so serious, Tiger?

After all, you met your future wife, thanks to me.

Okay!

So you crossed paths, and didn't actually meet then.

But you did finally meet later.

Thanks for introducing us.

You've already thanked me, Tiger...

by taking away Shaheen and my unborn child from me.

In one go.

Shall I say it too, Tiger?

A thank you?

Here?

Now?

In one go?

Junior never harmed you.

Just give him the injection. Please!

Tiger, have you heard of the sarin nerve agent?

It's very tricky!

Once it's in your system,

you need an injection every 24 hours.

That's the shot Dr. Hoffman has been giving Junior.

You haven't heard of it? Never mind.

Junior will tell you all about it...

that's if he survives.

That's if the doctor gives him the injection.

And that's if you do as I say.

I'll do your job.

Alone.

Tiger will never agree.

No, Zoya.

You see, you'll do the job together.

My job.

Or Junior's coffin.

What's the job?

Give Junior the injection.

I'll do it.

So, Tiger?

You consent?

I consent.

I consent.

Allah be praised.

Married, once again!

NEW DELHI, INDIA

What do I cut?

The red? No, not the red.

The green? The blue?

Cut the black.

No, don't cut the black.

Today's Saturday.

Black can be unlucky.

Let me do it.

Hasn't it blown yet?

Rakesh-ji, you're something else!

You get a R&AW agent to fix your cooler and another to deliver your food.

I'll complain to Menon ma'am.

He's called me here four times.

I'm R&AW's top bomb expert,

not your local electrician.

Show some respect!

And your damn cooler?

It'll never work!

Here's an idea.

Sell the cooler and buy yourself a huge hand fan.

- You'll feel a cool breeze.

Yes?

Tiger?

Give me your number.

I thought an insurance agent was calling.

I want to talk about insurance.

Not to cover you,

to cover me.

Rakesh-ji, there's a mission.

I need you.

Not for R&AW.

It's personal.

Have I ever refused you, sir?

Think it over.

You may lose your job for no good reason.

You never call without a good reason, sir.

Tell me, sir. Where must I go?

And for how long?

I'll pack my underwear accordingly.

Thank you, Rakesh-ji.

ISTANBUL, TURKEY

Rakesh-ji!

Reporting for duty, sir.

Sir, I told them not to come.

But they're damn stubborn.

Talk, young man!

Sir, we're R&AW agents.

How could we miss going on a mission with you?

It's like going to Delhi's ITO and not eating chole-kulche.

Too unfair, sir!

They're calling it a Pakistan-China-Turkey Tri-lateral Summit.

Turkey is responsible for security.

The briefcase is what it's all about.

It arrived in Turkey today with Chinese General Zimou's Advance Military team.

General Zimou.

She trains the Chinese army in hand-to-hand combat.

This lady teaches men how to fight.

She's Bruce Lee's daughter. By God!

More like his granny!

Granny has gone straight to the central military tower from the airport.

Turkey's most secure vault is in the tower basement.

The briefcase will be in the vault till tomorrow's meeting.

The vault is no simple locker. It's iris encoded.

General Zimou's iris digital algorithm is already programmed.

It's not just a vault, it's Ali Baba's cave.

Even if we get to Ali Baba's cave,

"open sesame"

is in Granny's eyes.

We can duplicate her eyes, sir.

Here's an iris scanner.

If we scan Granny's eyes,

then it's "open sesame".

Guys, where's the time for all that?

Tomorrow the briefcase will be exchanged.

Before that, the Chinese and Pakistani teams will be at the base.

We only have 16 hours.

Actually, 15 hours, 40 minutes.

We'll split up.

Zoya will look into Granny's eyes.

And I'll be at the base

with forty thieves.

Granny has an appointment at the hammam tomorrow.

You'll have to bathe with her.

All right, ma'am, we're done.

Now let the oils absorb for 20 minutes. And I will be back.

Nice tattoo.

It's the Chinese symbol for the ox, right?

In Hindi, an ox is "saand".

Some say never show a red flag to an ox.

Never show red to an ox.

You're right.

Never show a red flag to an ox.

No outsiders were allowed here today.

So who the hell are you?

Rakesh-ji, I am standing above Ali Baba's cave.

Where's Zoya?

Come on, Zoya!

Send me the scan.

Digital scan uploaded.

Halic Bridge. Hurry!

Arrest him quickly.

Take them to headquarters.

Surrender!

Surrender! Don't move.

Hands up or we will shoot!

Watch it! Are you blind?

Tiger, that's...

They're here to welcome my swag!

But who informed them?

Don't shoot. We want him alive.

Get out of the car right now!

Right now!

Follow him!

The suspect is entering the tunnel.

Take the briefcase and run.

By the time they catch me...

you'll be with Zoya.

Tiger, I won't leave you alone.

Get the briefcase to Zoya. Karan, go now!

Someone has leaked our plans.

They knew we were coming.

The Turkish police!

There was a squad and helicopters waiting for us.

Take my advice. Give the briefcase to the Turkish police.

Tiger will be blamed.

He's passing Topkapi Palace.

What's in this briefcase?

Hey, Zoya!

Better we don't know.

For all our sakes.

No time to explain now.

You'll understand in time.

Tiger's life is in danger!

Tiger's life is in this briefcase.

Do you think Zoya has cheated Tiger?

No.

Tiger and Zoya have cheated all three of us.

Nobody shoots!

We need him alive. I repeat...

Step out of the vehicle!

Hands above your head!

Step out of the vehicle! Step out now!

Hands above your head!

Hands above your head!

Get on your knees!

Get on your knees now!

So you informed the Turkish police.

Why?

They could've killed Tiger.

You know why they didn't?

Because treachery is worse than death for an agent, Zoya.

The only reason you're still alive is because you're Nazar saab's daughter.

Don't forget that.

Briefcase.

Junior?

I'm a man of my word.

He's been given the antidote.

Junior won't need injections anymore.

If my father were alive today, you'd disgust him.

But he's dead.

So, I must do his work.

I will hunt you down.

My best agent against me!

Again.

Tell me, Zoya.

You will kill me,

before saving Tiger,

or after?

You have no idea what's in this briefcase, right?

Remember the nuclear triad submarine missiles

that Pakistan got from China recently?

It has the Permissive Action Link codes.

PAL codes.

The missiles can't be launched without these codes.

You and Tiger stole them together.

Pakistan will believe you stole them for India.

Nothing you can do now, Zoya.

Neither India nor Pakistan will ever trust you again.

Your choice is simple.

Would you prefer R&AW to kill you, or the ISI?

Zoya, by stealing the PAL codes,

you have given India and Pakistan the face of a new enemy.

Tiger's face.

You gave them his face,

now Pakistan will have his head.

Where's Dad?

ISLAMABAD ARMY AIRBASE, PAKISTAN

The Indian traitor was caught red-handed.

Will the traitor's actions lead to Kargil 2?

Is it India's plot? Or the traitor's?

Tiger's accomplices and the PAL codes are still missing.

His accomplices have fled.

But Tiger was caught by the Turkish army.

Thanks to an extradition treaty,

he's being handed over to Pakistan.

The plan to sabotage Pakistan's nuclear power has been exposed.

Tiger's team and the PAL codes are still missing.

Even India may not know top agent Tiger is a traitor.

The Turkish army have caught Tiger red-handed

stealing Pakistan's nuclear PAL codes.

We'll see

what the Pakistani government will do with this Indian traitor.

ARMY PRISON, PAKISTAN

You should be grateful to us.

Being punished in Pakistan

is better than suffering the dishonor of a traitor in India.

He's seeing stars, sir.

Anymore and he'll turn into toast.

Shakeel!

Until you

toast bread on both sides,

it isn't tasty.

R&AW HEADQUARTERS, NEW DELHI

You butter your toast on one side or both?

I've never been to a Turkish hammam.

What's it like?

I mean, do you take your own soap, or do you use theirs?

Tihar jail.

Prisoners get one bar of soap each.

Yerwada jail.

You'll use the same soap for bathing and washing clothes.

ISI HEADQUARTERS, PAKISTAN

We once had a choice between love and country.

Zoya chose love.

We let her go.

Now the time has come to choose sides.

For Pakistan's sake.

The department has started an inquiry against you three.

If you don't want a bar of soap that must last for two months,

there's only one way.

Zoya and the PAL codes.

Find those PAL codes.

At any cost.

And if Zoya...

A traitor agent has no value, Abrar.

The popularity of PM Irani's government is declining.

If the stolen PAL codes mean a death sentence for Tiger,

this question is a noose round the PM's neck.

- Moving on to the next... - It's not just about

saving the peace process.

It's also about upholding the government.

What are you implying?

Not me. That's what the opinion polls are saying, Prime Minister.

Public sentiments, the press.

Both are against the government.

People demand an explanation.

We must give India proof of our strength.

According to you, is war the proof of strength?

If not war, give Tiger to the people.

If they can hang Afzal Guru,

why can't we give Tiger...

the noose?

Their PM did not hang Afzal Guru.

He was tried by law. The court sentenced him.

Our court can do the same.

We have all the evidence.

We'll fast-track the procedure, with your permission.

The choice is between your government, or an Indian terrorist.

Your choice.

Friendship with India means political suicide.

That's what my cabinet says, Nair sir.

I've risked my political career by proposing a peace treaty.

I extended the hand of friendship,

and you sent your R&AW agent to chop off that very hand.

Believe me, Irani sahiba,

whatever has happened has nothing to do with me or my government.

A traitor agent, or the peace process.

India has made its choice clear.

We will accept the sentence Pakistani law metes out to Tiger.

- Go easy on his hands. - Yes, sir.

We don't want his hands. We want his head.

I hear you're not crazy about Shakeel's face.

So, we thought we'd show you a new face.

Or a familiar face?

I was in this jail too.

The only difference was that I spent nine years here.

And you'll be here for 11 hours.

I had friends to get me out.

Court-martial can take away your uniform,

but not old friends.

I have news for you, Tiger.

I thought it's best you hear it from an old friend.

Tiger, I have good news and bad.

What should I tell you first?

Bad? Okay.

Junior is safe.

Bad because Junior is safe and the PAL codes are with me.

And the good news, Tiger,

this time Diwali has come early.

A day before Pakistan's Independence Day.

They're getting ready to hang you.

Pakistani Diwali.

Not for Pakistan,

but for unhinged Jihadists like you.

We celebrate Diwali for three days.

You lit the fireworks,

I will put them out.

You've ended it already, Tiger. Come on!

The peace talks between Pakistan and India,

and PM Irani's political career ended

when you stole the PAL codes.

In three days, when PM Irani

will be preparing her Independence Day speech,

the tables will turn.

Her government will fall.

Because of me.

Pakistan's future prime minister stands before you, Tiger.

Won't you congratulate me?

For years India has humiliated Pakistan.

1965, '71. Kargil.

Now it's Pakistan's turn.

I promise you, Tiger,

I will erase India from the world map.

Remember...

the color green of my dreams?

You've finally healed me, Tiger.

And I will heal Pakistan.

ALTAUSSEE, AUSTRIA

All the hard drives are missing.

- Did someone come here before us? - Hey!

What?

Someone logged in 31 minutes ago.

There had to be something for R&AW to do.

So, log out.

What did you decide?

R&AW?

ISI?

Let's work together, sir.

Brother Abrar.

Captain Abrar!

R&AW is really busy.

First, they steal the PAL codes then they look for them.

Where's Zoya?

We're looking for her too.

She cheated us too.

All three of us.

Share the hard disk data, so we'll look for her together.

- The ISI doesn't work with thieves. - Careful, Nikhil.

Only one body bag will be sent to India with Tiger's corpse.

Come between us and Zoya, then there'll be three body bags. Get it?

Beautiful.

There go the hard drives!

A bar of soap at Tihar jail?

Or a body bag?

Where'd you prefer to go, Rakesh-ji?

To the doctor's.

Dimercaprol and EDTA.

It's used in lead poisoning.

Dr. Hoffman prescribed it.

So let's go and see the doctor!

General Haq's orders...

only he and the investigating officer

and no one else is permitted to talk to the prisoner.

The prisoner is in solitary confinement.

He is using the washroom.

Keep an eye on him.

Ajmal, come in.

Stop watching the small screen, brother.

I'll show you live action on the big screen!

There has been a blast in Cell 2.

Fan out!

Surround the place!

Block all the entry and exits. Right away!

Hands up!

Control Room, he's in our sights.

♪ When Pathaan gets into the groove ♪ ♪ My love ♪

♪ He steals all hearts ♪

♪ The promises he makes ♪ ♪ My love ♪

♪ He'll stand by forever ♪

Can I ask something personal?

Always.

Did you really have to play that song?

Can't do two things without a playlist.

A workout.

The other's action!

It'll stop.

It stopped.

Wait.

I'm coming.

In two and half seconds.

Last time two friends sat in a sidecar, one survived. The driver.

But wasn't that movie a hit, Tiger!

Showing up today was easy for you.

When I came to Russia, I thought I was done for.

But you love playing the hero!

Jumping on a moving train, scarf flying in the air.

Tiger's style is all brawn. My style is all brains.

If your brains do the job, why use your fists?

I planned it all!

Planned that too?

No, that wasn't in the plan.

Fire!

I was better off in jail. At least I was alive.

Tiger lives and always will.

Pathaan's promise.

Promise?

But I charged it.

Planned.

Show-off!

Of course.

What now, brother?

Now...

The usual.

Best!

Run, Tiger! Run!

What's that sound?

It's a helicopter.

Ours?

Theirs.

Tiger!

Enjoy some Pakistani Diwali fireworks...

before you go.

I don't celebrate Diwali with fireworks,

I eat something sweet instead.

Tiger! Jump!

Jump!

That was touch-and-go, brother.

The plane's waiting.

I promised Zoya we'd party together tonight.

I can't come.

The in-laws are in trouble.

A son-in-law must do his duty.

I'm free, so I'll come with you. We'll do our duty together.

Right now, I'm Pakistan's enemy number one. It's risky.

So what if Tiger's swagger is missing?

India will need Pathaan's brains.

If I make it, we'll party.

- We have one parachute. - You keep it.

Your hair looks good blowing in the wind.

Dr. Hoffman?

The CCTV footage proves he went to Tiger's house every day.

Zoya's number is on his call records.

We've found Hoffman now, so we might find Zoya.

Tell Javed, if he's making coffee,

I like my coffee black.

Make some extra cups.

We have guests.

I gave you enough clues, Abrar.

CCTV tapes.

I left Hoffman's phone on so you could track his signal.

Despite that, R&AW got here first.

Why did you and Tiger do all this?

Damn it, Abrar. We've worked together before.

Tiger saved Pakistan and the ISI from embarrassment before.

And you doubt Tiger and me?

Zoya, the video footage is crystal clear.

It's true, we did steal the PAL codes.

But there's another truth.

The ex-ISI agent Aatish Rehman.

ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN

Seekh paratha, seekh kebab.

Come, enjoy Pakistan's famous seekh kebab.

Our sources have just informed us Indian agent Tiger

has escaped jail and is on the run.

If he is seen anywhere, kindly call the number provided.

Or inform your local police station immediately.

Game over, Tiger.

Hassan. Hassan. Hassan.

How many times have I told you? In hand-to-hand combat,

eye contact and distance are necessary.

Closeness is for love,

not for hand-to-hand combat.

You taught me how to fight

when we met in Ikrit for the first time.

Tiger, what you doing?

Oh, shit!

You remember Hassan? Ikrit mission? Suicide bomber?

He's in Islamabad now.

Tiger and I have been supporting his education.

He's more like a son.

Tiger is with him.

Is Tiger in Islamabad?

By now he must've cooked biryani for Hassan.

The call's come. Connected.

Hey, Junior. So good to see you.

I missed you so much.

Do something for me.

Listen to your mummy

and let her come to Pakistan without you. Okay?

We must thank Aatish for one thing.

He's brought us together again.

14th August.

On Pakistan's Independence Day, Aatish will attack.

PM Irani and Pakistani's democracy are in great danger.

We must inform the ISI bosses and the army at once.

Inform whom?

General Haq?

He got Aatish out of jail.

Or your boss DG Riaz? He sent you to kill Zoya.

Who is part of this conspiracy and who is not, none of us know.

The choice is simple.

A dictator?

Or democracy?

- Democracy. - Democracy.

We have an ISI special transport plane with us.

We're sorted till then,

but after that?

We'll figure that out in Islamabad.

Before that... your cell phones.

Brother, you call us a team and take our phones?

Don't you trust us?

Javed, you know the ISI better than me.

I know R&AW better than you.

We can't take any chances.

ISLAMABAD ARMY AIRBASE, PAKISTAN

14 August 1947.

Qaid-e-Azam got us freedom.

But Pakistan has forgotten the reason for its existence.

Tomorrow is 14th of August again.

We must remember why we exist.

Just keep your PM speech ready.

Before you land, PM Irani will be in my custody.

The PM's personal security has been replaced by the army.

General Haq's men are everywhere.

There are 107 CCTV cameras in the whole complex.

Those 107 cameras will help us

because Rakesh-ji will have access to the camera feed.

Hassan, you'll monitor them.

I studied the old footage, Tiger.

The safest way to enter is through Staff Entry No 3.

All the equipment is unloaded there.

Media coordinator Maqsood Alkazi and his crew will arrive at 7:00 a.m.

9:30 a.m. The speech will be telecast from the Qaid-e-Azam Chamber.

PM's speech.

Aatish will strike before that.

PM Irani worries me less,

Tiger worries me more.

And a free Tiger is dangerous for us.

Only in his jungle.

But we rule this jungle.

So we'll do the hunting, Haq saab.

See you in PM's enclave.

The IDs are ready.

The uniforms are here.

Rakesh-ji has hacked the PMO website.

Haq has replaced all the security guards with his men.

His men and the PM's staff don't recognize one another.

By the time we get there,

our fake IDs will show on their website.

- OK. - Copy.

- Any questions? - No, sir.

How can we get the PM out?

Aatish has the whole army behind him.

On behalf of Radio Pakistan,

I'd like to congratulate all Pakistanis on Independence Day.

- Are you the head cook, Walid? - Yes, sir.

You won't manage the cooking at PM's office today. Get down.

Anees, you too.

As you all know,

the prime minister will be making her speech at 9:30 a.m. today.

We're certain that everyone is waiting eagerly for her speech.

- Stop!

What's at the back?

Pots and pans, sir. For the banquet.

Two lazy guys are asleep back there.

Fire a few shots! The fools will wake up.

We have to prepare food for 350 guests.

ID?

They're good.

Let them through Gate 3.

Check your earpieces. Communication good?

- All good? - All good.

- All good. - All good, Rakesh-ji.

Speed it up!

- Take the rice plates away. - Yes, sir.

Take elevator 7B to the PM's floor, Zoya.

It's in front of the elevator as you exit.

Where are Walid and Anees?

They were called to the President's house. We're covering their shift.

The oil can's lid is missing. I need a container.

Pass the salt.

We need more cooking oil.

Nikhil, when you exit the lift, take first right.

Karan. Now.

- Oh God.

I'm so sorry. I'll clean it up.

Careful. There's oil on the floor.

Leave the can there.

Step aside.

IED 1 in position.

Set the frequency, Rakesh-ji.

Chef, time to serve the starters.

Sorry, sir. Haq sir's orders.

No one is allowed on the PMO floor.

We'll let the PM rehearse her speech.

Where's Mr. Alkazi and the PTV crew?

Tell them it's important they rehearse before the PM's speech.

Yes, sir.

The girls are here.

- Happy Independence Day! - Happy Independence Day!

- They'll perform before the speech. - Very well, sir.

What's this?

You've already dusted this morning.

The supervisor said we must tidy up before the broadcast.

I swear!

Dusting isn't a big mission. Why take so long?

The PM will be addressing the whole country,

so everything must look perfect.

- Hurry. Do what you must. - Yes, sir.

Let me taste a kebab in the meantime.

There's a bone in this kebab, Ramiz saab.

Tiger, there's no security in the corridor. Move!

She must be framed well. The kebabs are piping hot, right?

We tried, Tiger.

But Javed and I couldn't get into the PMO.

So you'll have to convince the PM on your own.

Mr. Ramiz, where has the crew disappeared to?

- It's nearly time for the speech.

Why are you looking so pale?

He's afraid Pakistan's birth date

will coincide with his dying day.

You'll be surprised to know,

I'm not your army's most wanted person, you are.

You and your government are threatened by

your Army Chief General Haq, and an ex-ISI agent, Aatish Rehman.

Careful, PM sahiba.

To celebrate your Independence Day, we've brought some fireworks too.

I heard you were an excellent R&AW agent.

Now I see you cook up stories too.

Your conspiracy theory is good, Avinash.

AKA Tiger.

This isn't my story.

It's Aatish Rehman's story.

He forced us to steal the PAL codes.

He kidnapped our son.

To save him, we had no choice.

Now who are you saving?

My wife's family is here.

No matter how much we quarrel,

when the in-laws are in trouble, I must help.

Central command, come in.

General Haq is entering through the main gate.

I will not go anywhere with a R&AW agent on the run.

Who says you must go?

You have a speech to make.

We just want to get you out of this room.

The General is here with his men.

Today marks the beginning of a new Pakistan.

I want you all to live to see it. Disarm them.

There's only one safe place.

The bunker.

Have you heard the story of the old lady and the devil?

So am I the old lady? And General Haq the devil?

No.

The real devil hasn't arrived yet.

Seal the floor. Communication lockdown.

Install signal jammers.

You're all safe. Do as the soldiers tell you.

We'll congratulate the PM on Independence Day.

- Come on, girls. - This way, girls.

Haq saab! The PM has been taken to the bunker.

Lock him up with the others. Send our men to stop them.

Haq is leaving the PM's room.

Move! Move!

Clear the kitchen! Go!

Come on! Let's move!

This way to the bunker. Follow me.

The PM is heading to the bunker with the Indians.

Stop them!

Seal the exits!

For your safety, surrender, PM ma'am.

Will you shoot the PM of Pakistan?

They don't care, madam.

If anything happens to you,

Tiger will be blamed.

Move!

Hurry, let's move.

There are two terrorists in the kitchen. Send backup.

- Get in! - Shut the door.

Tiger, it's time for "Time Pass".

Down, down, down!

Stay down!

The PM is safe. I repeat, the PM is safe.

More soldiers are coming. How many bullets left?

Our last magazine.

Save two bullets for me. I'll check the dal.

Dal? Meaning?

Let's go.

Haq and his men are on their way.

The stairs behind you lead to the stables through the tunnel.

Ambush him there.

Take a right.

Did you save two bullets for me?

You're bound to be hanged, Tiger!

Sounds of gunfire and just now, two consecutive blasts.

Neither the PMO, nor anyone within is responding.

And the communication seems to be severed.

No one has any idea what exactly is going on within the enclave.

Where's your sense of hospitality, Haq saab?

Pakistan's future PM is about to land,

and you're swaying here.

A welcoming committee is in order.

- Abrar. Javed. - Yes.

Tiger, someone should represent India

to welcome him.

With your permission.

Enjoy sight-seeing?

The rules of this game are different, Karan.

It's not a game for fists,

it's a mind game.

R&AW on one side, ISI on the other.

They're both helping me.

Thanks for the gracious welcome.

You should be grateful.

I've done your job.

DG Riaz asked you to bring this?

PAL codes.

To our viewers, firing can be heard

- from the PMO enclave. - The sound of gunfire has been echoing.

We can still hear the sound of bullets.

Sorry, Mr. Riaz, you can't go inside.

Breaking news.

Army Chief General Haq is coming down alone. But why?

We'll report back...

Now you'll go for a stroll...

towards the gate. Alone.

Tell your army friends and the media outside the truth.

Tell them how you and Aatish deceived the people of Pakistan.

Then you can tell your reinforcements to come inside,

so PM Irani can leave the enclave safely.

What a pity, Haq saab.

Sadly, you'll miss my speech.

Shocking news for the whole country.

General Haq has been assassinated.

This terrible incident was captured live at the PM's enclave.

This is coming live from Pakistan!

We just received this disturbing footage.

Terrifying news from the PM's enclave.

Pakistan's Army Chief General Haq

has been assassinated on the steps of the PM's enclave.

- Sir, the link has been activated.

You're live!

Our evidence shows...

I brought you all a present. Freedom!

For PM Irani. The PAL codes.

I can't congratulate you right now.

Why?

Our PM is in the enclave.

Tiger is inside the enclave with his men.

Tiger has murdered our army chief.

India will deny it all.

Their old habit.

How can they deny this R&AW agent's presence here?

We caught him red-handed.

Tiger is targeting our PM and our democracy.

Now I will take the responsibility for preserving democracy.

Tiger was going to be hanged today, and he will hang.

I'll return to congratulate you on Independence Day.

After Tiger is hanged.

We shall celebrate Independence Day.

Long live Pakistan!

The thing is, Tiger...

you'll soon have a team member less.

We didn't want Haq to go to hell alone.

So, I'm sending someone with him.

I don't think Karan likes Islamabad very much.

Best he returns to Delhi...

in a body bag.

No, no, no.

Want to say goodbye?

A last message for Tiger?

The message...

is for you.

Tiger has put a line through your terrorist accounts.

Get ready to go to hell.

My accounts!

That reminds me...

I think your math is screwed up.

Liked your message in red, Tiger?

I believed it would be difficult for me to become prime minister...

but you've made it so easy.

I thought I'd have to capture the PM alive...

but not anymore.

Save yourself...

or save the PM.

Aatish has Karan's earpiece.

Our communication frequency has been compromised.

I'll change the frequency channels.

My coat has been stained with Indian blood.

So, Javed?

Are you ready to hunt down the tiger?

I would've done so sooner, sir,

but you didn't let me.

I never understood why you wanted to keep Tiger alive.

I needed him alive.

Or who'd hang for the PM's murder?

Javed is still on the old frequency.

Shall I shift to back-up?

Shall I shift to back-up?

Javed...

you okay?

Yes, but Abrar and Karan...

Their sacrifice will not go to waste.

Can't talk now. Where are you?

In the stables.

And the PM?

Tiger...

I'm so grateful to you and to Zoya. And to your whole team.

But how many more men must we lose?

There are only five of you while Aatish has the whole army.

He can counter our every move.

I would like to surrender to Aatish, Tiger.

On the condition

that he sends you and your team back to India safely.

We have no other choice, Tiger.

Irani sahiba...

is your speech ready?

My speech can only be telecast from my chamber.

Now it'll be telecast from the bunker.

The whole country is waiting for the PM's speech.

We can still hear bullets from the PM's enclave.

All communication is in lockdown.

Forget the speech, we don't even know whether the PM is safe.

Rakesh-ji, unlock the signal jammers.

Javed.

Aatish does not know you're following him.

Keep sending us his real-time location.

He'll pass through the stables to get to the bunker.

You, Zoya and I will ambush him here.

Sixty seconds is all we need.

Then it makes no difference what Aatish does or doesn't do.

By then, PM ma'am, you would've told all Pakistan the truth.

Bunker entry code.

280185.

Javed.

I'm in Stall 12.

Tiger is in 22.

Javed...

Javed!

Javed... come in, Javed.

Sir, there's no one here.

Sir, no one here either.

Put your guns down!

You used the whole Pakistan army...

but we used only one of your men.

Javed.

Your cell phones.

We checked all the phones,

and discovered Javed used to call Rawalpindi every day.

- Hello.

- Same number. Javed's mother. - Yes?

They have-- They had a daughter too. Javed's sister. Shaheen.

Your wife...

who sacrificed her life and unborn child for you.

Before you got into the PMO,

we were sure Javed would bring you to us.

Once we enter the PMO, I'll watch Javed.

I'll mark him.

"A lot of healing!"

Isn't that what you said?

There's more healing to come, Tiger!

And revenge for my sister Shaheen.

Men must do men's work, Tiger.

You shouldn't leave it to kids.

Enjoy your family time!

I'll go meet Irani sahiba

and persuade her not to surrender.

Better to die a martyr.

Sorry, Tiger.

It's just like the first time we met,

in Ikrit.

Same situation.

I owe my life to you.

Today,

I'm returning it to you.

This kid has brought you a real showstopper!

The music always gets louder now.

Hassan!

Hassan!

I wanted to invite you and Zoya to hear my PM speech.

Find Zoya.

Shall we go to the bunker?

Zoya can't make it to hear your speech.

She's busy getting Irani sahiba's speech ready.

Hassan!

Hassan!

There's not much time, Zoya. Take the PM to her chamber.

You can't stop Aatish alone.

No need for me to stop him. He must be brought to the bunker. Go!

Zoya has taken the PM out of the bunker.

There was a reason we gave you those bunker codes.

- The entry code. - 280...

You did everything right,

but forgot one thing.

Till the day Tiger breathes.

Never will Tiger accept defeat.

Don't be scared.

Everyone is safe. Let's go.

Think of Abrar and Karan.

It won't hurt.

My compatriots,

your PM is still alive.

But you must wait to celebrate Independence Day...

because the PM's enclave is under siege.

Pakistan's freedom is under siege.

The terrorist is not an Indian. He's a Pakistani.

Pakistan's freedom is being threatened by a Pakistani.

Freedom!

It's just a small word, but it means a lot.

The PM is live.

Freedom, democracy.

You cannot put a price on them.

But a price has been paid today

for your freedom and mine.

For Pakistan's democracy.

Major Abrar Sheikh,

Pakistani student Hassan Ali,

and other brave hearts who are not even Pakistanis have died.

The man we assumed to be a terrorist,

was the man who stopped the threat of dictatorship.

In his greed for power,

Aatish Rehman, with General Haq's support,

wanted to declare martial law in Pakistan and so entered the PMO.

Between their plans and Pakistan's democracy

stood an Indian...

Tiger.

We were about to hang him.

If I am alive today...

it is thanks to Tiger.

If democracy is alive in Pakistan,

it's because of Tiger and his team.

PM sir, there are some young girls sitting here.

We've decided what to choose between hate and peace.

PM sir?

What's your opinion?

"One must be gracious in bad times.

Because time takes no time...

to change."

Any message for your father?

Tell him...

to show you mercy.

You were right.

The color green...

was not to heal you,

but to heal Pakistan...

from you.

PM sahiba, your ex-ISI agent'skhichdi didn't get cooked.

But I cooked my special dal for you.

Do taste it.

I will. Before I do, some young girls want to thank you.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

All charges have been dropped.

Come back to the office tomorrow.

Thank you, ma'am.

Where are Tiger and Zoya?

You should take that call.

- What call?

That one.

Hello.

I needed your advice, ma'am.

Tiger, where the hell are you?

Don't worry, ma'am. Tiger is still alive.

But there's a small problem.

Should I have the blueberry cheesecake or the Tiramisu?

What do you suggest?

Tiger! Where are you? And when are we meeting?

You must be busy now.

When you have work for me, I'll contact you myself.

What will you do till then?

Do what we talked about when we started.

"Time Pass."

- Blueberry cheesecake. - Mm-hmm!

So, what do we do now?

Nothing.

What I'm about to ask you, Kabir,

no officer has the right to ask of any soldier.

Nor should a father ask of his son.

But this job

only you can do, Kabir.

India has a new enemy.

This enemy is dangerous and evil.

An evil beyond your nightmares.

He has no name.

Nor face.

He thrives in darkness.

And to stop him you'll have to enter that darkness.

You'll have to cross every line between right and wrong.

You'll have to erase your feelings of good and bad.

You'll have to do things, Kabir,

that you won't forgive yourself for having done.

And if you survive,

you'll face a threat greater than death.

Because it's possible,

when fighting a monster,

you become a monster yourself.
