As World War II rages,

the whole world is engulfed in throes of war.

India is under British rule

and at present, the freedom struggle is at its peak.

In Gandhi's non-violent struggle,

the call for self-rule echoes throughout the country.

But another soldier of this battle for freedom,

Subhas Chandra Bose,

is dismissive of Gandhi's non-violent ways.

He believes that freedom has to be fought for, not sought after.

It will be attained by fighting fire with fire.

Bose changed his strategy and joined hands

with the enemy of the enemy, Japan.

He assumed command of the Indian National Army in Singapore.

The Indian National Army, or INA,

was formed with prisoners of war

who were captured while fighting for the British.

But the British Army still had thousands of Indian soldiers

who were shedding their blood

for their ruthless masters, the British.

Nawab!

Hurry up, Nawab!

Hurry up!

Nawab, run!

Nawab, hurry!

Nawab!

Nawab, come on, try harder. Hurry!

Nawab!

Nawab!

India can no longer remain enslaved.

We'll have to pay the price for freedom!

Prepare for it.

We may have been born in an enslaved India

but we'll breathe our last in a free India.

Sir, General Mutaguchi's orders.

The Japanese army is to lead the attack, not us.

Our army, our mission, both are irrelevant to the Japanese.

No one can stop us from reaching Delhi now.

Neither the British, nor the Japanese. Prepare for war.

The first stop will be here,

at Imphal.

In two months, we will hoist the tricolor there.

And in four months... in Delhi.

But, Sir, to fight our battle,

we'll need guns, explosives, tanks, transport...

and for those, money.

We will arrange for the money.

Pardon me, sir, but from where?

Bombay.

J-U-L-I-A...

Only your name, Julia

Julie!

Extraordinary. Stunning. Incredible.

-This was a bit tight. -Okay.

Haseena, you were brilliant today. You overshadowed Julia.

Why did you pull my hair so hard?

In the next shot, Julia is on a bike with horses chasing her,

-and then, an airplane. -Perfect.

-And then you decide... -One more!

Julia, why one more? The last one was so good.

Rusi, what the hell? It's a classic one-shot and I'm okay with it.

People watch films, not shots.

And who is the director of this film?

Good question.

You know how scarce film stock is.

The world is at war and you are bent upon getting "one more".

Go and join Hitler's army.

The chandelier?

It's impossible to grab the chandelier mid-air, Rusi.

Really?

Let me show you how it's done.

What if something happens to me?

I don't want to die before becoming Mrs. Billimoria.

You are Julia.

Miss Julia.

My Julia.

Lights!

DAUGHTER OF THE STORM

DAUGHTER OF THE STORM 25 WEEKS SILVER JUBILEE

May I have your attention please?

Your Royal Highnesses, My Lords, ladies and gentlemen, good evening.

There's someone very special I'd like to introduce to you tonight.

He's here straight from the battlefield, where he's fighting for us

and with us.

No one makes a better mutton biryani than him

and I'm proud to call him my friend.

To his ennobling empire

and to the good that it has done our country.

To Major General David Harding!

Greetings!

I'm reminded of a couplet...

He has become the King's comrade,

and hence shows off arrogantly.

He has become the King's comrade,

and hence shows off arrogantly.

What other claim to respect does Ghalib have in the city?

Bravo!

Well said!

Thank you, Mr. Billimoria... Rusi.

I'm honored.

I may be a white man on the outside, friends.

But this heart, it is Indian.

Miss Julia, please meet my new queen, Padmini.

I heard your real name is not Julia.

It is... I don't know, I mean, I read it somewhere...

-Excuse me. -Your drink, Your Grace.

Actresses!

Every Indian has a duty towards this country.

Hence, he must contribute his due share towards the final victory.

I'm convinced that India cannot hope to be free

until all Indians living abroad

perform their duties in this momentous world crisis.

-Hail free India! -Hail the motherland!

Whom do we follow? Who is right?

Gandhi preaches non-violence.

And Mr. Bose advocates violence.

You aren't fit for either.

We must attain freedom, whenever that will be.

Correct.

This is a memento of my first and late wife, Rajo...

for the Indian National Army. Netaji, Rajo's last memento.

-This is from me. -Splendid!

Do you not miss the screen, Mr. Billimoria?

Rope Of Death

No more than I miss this hand.

Rusi, our boys on the front would love to see Miss Julia.

Just a few shows for our Indian troops.

There's a war going on, David. It's far too dangerous.

There's no danger at all. The Japanese are on the run.

And it's bad times for the INA.

Their guns and bellies...

both are empty.

I give you my word,

Miss Julia will have better protection than the King of England.

My word above my life.

Is this what you've been learning in Benaras?

Miss Julia, we meet again.

Yes, my dear Queen Number Three.

Actually, these ladies don't believe me.

Tell me, isn't it true that

you were a gypsy before joining the movies?

And your real name is... I forgot it again.

Jwala Devi... It was Jwala Devi.

And I'm a bastard.

I don't know who my father is.

But I know who my husband is going to be.

Soon I'm going to be Mrs. Billimoria.

Rusi, tell them.

Let's go, darling. The press is waiting outside.

-Excuse us. -Of course.

I told you!

Mrs. Billimoria...

All hail the King!

That's quite a sword!

Should I gift it to you or would you like to snatch it?

Your Majesty, you have a great sense of humor.

Careful, sir.

She's known as the Queen of Panipat.

It's very sharp.

Your King Edward VII

was smitten by this beauty.

I see.

But Your Majesty, just for my curiosity,

how much is this sword worth?

Let's just say that

if I send this to the Indian National Army,

then Bose's army can get

whatever they need to free India from you.

In that case, I may just have to snatch it.

Please stand back. Please.

Miss Julia, your film has completed 25 weeks, how do you feel about it?

-What's the name of your next film? -Please.

-Please. -Who is the hero of your next film?

Bloody hell!

Bloody hell!

Miss Julia, you're a hero in reel life.

But who is your hero in real life?

Who is that lucky man?

The nation wants to know.

Rusi.

RUSI BILLIMORIA DECLARES HIS LOVE FOR MISS JULIA

Cyrus, let's go.

-Mummy, please, just a while longer. -I said, let's go, dear.

-Daddy, tell her. -It's okay.

Hello, Zen, how are you?

The same as I was when you left... happy.

Daddy, who's this? Tell me, who is this?

Tell me, who is this.

Your daddy's mistress.

Daddy, what's a mistress?

Love is never deliberate, grandpa.

It just happened.

You were an action star, Rusi.

When did you become a romantic hero?

Forgive me, grandpa.

One times two, makes two

Two times two, makes four

One times two, makes two Two times two, makes four

Four times four, makes sixteen!

Praise the Lord! My heart Crows aloud, cock-a-doodle-do!

Listen to it, cock-a-doodle-do!

Listen to it

I'm the lover You're the love interest!

One times three, makes three Three times three, makes nine!

It's not easy for me to refuse David, but I'm sorry, Major.

I can't risk Julia's life knowingly.

Mr. Billimoria...

-Please trust us. -This one.

This is the frame, take it out.

Sorry? What were you saying?

Nothing.

Britishers, leave India!

Britishers, leave India!

Britishers, leave India!

Long live revolution!

Britishers, leave India! Britishers, leave India!

The country has gone insane.

If the British leave, we'll be ruined.

-Parrot. -What?

You're Rusi's parrot.

But it's true!

We can keep protesting and fasting,

but no one is going anywhere.

Someone is definitely going somewhere.

You knew?

No.

MISS JULIA TO ENTERTAIN TROOPS AT BURMA BORDER.

I'm not going to Burma.

Come here.

Come, come...

Hey, kiddo.

You didn't even ask me once.

Gemini Pictures has shut down.

Madras Talkies' new film has been stalled halfway.

-Why? -It's wartime, kiddo.

Germany... Hitler...

Hitler watches Hindi movies?

It's the raw stock, my stupid kiddo.

Germany used to supply it earlier, they stopped it due to the war.

Now it comes from England.

-So? -So...

No show, no film.

No film, no Julia.

Sergeant Hukum Singh, sir!

I killed six Italian soldiers in Egypt.

Beautiful.

Sergeant Chandra Bhaan Singh, sir!

Nine German soldiers and a Major in Libya.

Very beautiful.

Sergeant Nawab Malik, Sir! I didn't kill any enemy soldiers.

Sir, he was a POW.

Captured in Rangoon.

A former Chindit.

-Did you escape a Japanese prison? -Sir!

Without killing any Japanese?

I killed 27 traitors of the Indian National Army. Sir!

Splendid, splendid, splendid!

By God, it's unbelievable!

Rusi, Rusi, come. Come on!

Come in.

-What happened? -Grandpa suffered a heart attack.

-What? -I have to stay back.

-I won't go alone. -Kiddo, please understand.

Rusi, I won't go alone! Rusi!

Miss Julia, please.

Hey, leave me!

Miss Julia, please!

-Who are you? -No, Julia quiet.

What happened to Julia? What's the chaos?

Who are you? Introduce yourself.

Sergeant Nawab Malik.

I'm in charge of Miss Julia's personal security.

I'll make sure that you end up in housekeeping,

-if it's the last thing I do! -Calm down, Julia.

Calm her down.

-Is he an actor or a soldier? -Who is he?

What happened? Julia...

Weird.

I'm going to pee, wanna join me?

Ladies only.

You're so stubborn.

Everyone warned you about doing that stunt.

You know it wasn't my fault.

It was mine.

I should have stopped you then.

Like I did today.

By lying to me.

No.

By hiding the truth.

Zenobia wants a divorce.

That cannot happen as long as I'm alive.

What do you want?

The end.

We are terminating Julia's contract.

She's the biggest star of this studio.

There are dozens of Julias...

on every street of India.

Find another.

Tighten the nuts and bolts quickly.

Tighten that one.

My sincere apologies, Miss Julia. It was the wild elephants.

Anyway, we have arranged for rafts.

Once we cross the river, it's only 15 minutes to base camp.

-And to get to the river? -Half an hour.

By foot?

My donkey is at your service.

He told me that he's a sergeant.

Make way! Move aside, please!

Keep moving!

Let go. I can ride a stupid donkey.

It's a she. Yes, this ass here is a woman.

-Sergeant! -Sir!

You go on ahead. I'll escort Miss Julia.

Sir!

I'm no less than Julia, she's my junior.

I don't care.

I can't walk, I want a donkey right now!

Of course, Queen Victoria.

Why don't we ask King George to send you his private plane?

Shut up, Julia's pimp!

Really? See if I help when you need your mustache waxed.

Beauty with a mustache.

You're not going on this.

-Why not? -Well...

This is Miss Julia's raft.

Okay, all right.

Take this.

Julia, hereafter, this white man is your butler.

Take care of her.

-Malik! -Sir!

You'll go with Miss Julia.

Come on, let's get on it. It's getting late.

My fairness cream, please.

It's in the bag.

Makes you radiant like the moon, white like snow.

Want some?

I'm fine the way I am.

It's because you're a man.

Had you been a woman, you'd have known

what it means to be dark-skinned in this country.

Yes. No wonder we are slaves to the whites.

Miss Julia! Come on here.

Miss Julia! Come on quick.

Someone save my luggage!

Hey!

It's okay...

It was a disaster I'm afraid, sir.

I personally tried to save as many as I could but...

I'm afraid, there are 27 dead.

A few locals, 13 of our men.

And there are four unaccounted for.

Including...

That's okay. Keep moving.

Including?

Zulfi!

Ahuja!

Rusi!

Hello!

Julie.

Miss Julia.

I do action...

Action, dance...

Daughter Of the Storm.

My lover went to England...

He mustn't startle Hitler

My lover went to England

To teach them a lesson

What's your name?

-Name? -Hiromichi.

What?

Hiromichi.

Hiro? I'm a heroine.

We go to India.

Tell...

Tell us the way.

Tell, or else...

Or else... He... He'll kill you.

He'll kill you.

What?

-What do you mean? -Overacting!

Very funny. Why don't you try?

How far is your camp from here?

Two hours.

And Rangoon bridge?

Three to four days' walk.

Draw it.

A village, bunker, Rangoon bridge, then India correct?

How do you know Japanese?

I was a POW.

-Where? -First in Rangoon, then Singapore.

-For how long? -Eight months.

-How did you get out? -I escaped.

Escaped? How?

What will it take to get you to shut up?

Women!

Women!

Lucky throw!

We'll take turns keeping an eye on him.

You can sleep first.

I can't. I'm too hungry.

Hey!

That's enough.

Get back!

You would have done the same if you were in his place.

If he'd rung that bell,

you'd be on that crucifix,

snoring away to glory.

And who'd be responsible for that?

You and your useless army.

"I'm in charge of your personal security,

Sergeant Nawab Malik!"

And that dog, Major General Harding!

"Miss Julia, we will provide you

with better security than the King of England."

I'm going to take a nap.

If you get sleepy, shoot yourself in the head, you'll wake up. Bloody hell!

Why did you flee?

When will it stop raining?

Thirty-seven minutes past 4:00.

How do you know?

Because I'm God. As I know everything.

I know when the sun will set, when the moon will rise,

when the wind will blow, when the rain will stop

and when you will stop talking.

Why does God make beautiful women so foolish?

What if it rains for days? Will we just wait around?

Yes.

That's too much for me.

Explaining something to you is as tough as making an elephant wear undies.

Let's go.

Come on, Hiro. We're leaving.

No! No! No!

The weather is terrible.

It's like committing harakiri!

Both of you can rot here.

I'll find my way.

What are you doing?

Hurry up!

Come on!

I won't stop. I'm still going.

I've been performing dangerous stunts since I was a kid.

Tightrope walking, knife acts, fire-breathing.

At the beach, I was paid a penny every week.

Yesterday was my last day. I want to go home.

My mother must be waiting for me with my favorite dish.

Sukiyaki. Beef hot pot.

Have you ever tried it? Sukiyaki...

I was 14.

When Rusi first saw me perform,

at the beach.

He immediately bought me off my mother for a thousand rupees.

Have you even seen a thousand rupees?

I wanted to become a singer.

But I was forced to join the army.

I swear!

Rusi educated me, raised me and made me a star.

I am what I am because of him.

Who? Me?

No, no... I'm not married!

I just graduated from music school.

What's so funny about that? It's the truth.

He'll do anything for me.

Anything... Hey, wait!

I didn't know...

I... I didn't know!

Once you dive into that dimple

Deeper and deeper You fall into the mystery

Dance away to the chime of the anklets

I can't dance.

You can march, can't you?

Left, right, left.

Hold my waist.

Why so shy, Sergeant? You've seen me naked.

Stark naked.

Tell me something.

Something that...

you have never told anyone else.

I'm afraid.

Afraid? Being a soldier?

Of what? Death?

No, of love.

Your turn.

I'm...

an untouchable.

That scar on your back?

Its beautiful.

How did you get it?

It's a heart wrenching story.

You won't tell anyone, will you?

Actually...

its a birthmark.

Do you know why God makes beautiful girls so foolish?

Why?

He makes them beautiful

so that men like you can fall in love with them.

And foolish?

So they can fall in love with men like you.

Hey!

-I submit... -What?

I submit!

-Submit! -Yes...

Hey!

Hey!

Nawab!

-Hiro... -Get out of the way!

What are you doing?

-There's no need... -I thought we were friends.

There's no need for this.

You can leave.

You dog...

I want to go home.

So, go.

A Japanese soldier can't go back in defeat.

No one will understand.

Your mother will understand.

Go.

Farewell!

Kiddo!

It's Julia!

Farewell it is

Surely not goodbye

The body is surely not bereft of the soul

Farewell it is, surely not goodbye

The body is surely not bereft of the soul

You who flow through the soul...

You who flow through the soul...

You are not God, are you?

Farewell it is, surely not goodbye

Take him to the jeep.

-How is she? Any serious injuries? -No, sir.

-She's fine. -Thank God.

-Sergeant Malik. -Sir!

Well done, soldier.

Miss Julia told me all about your heroic actions.

-Thank you so much, sir. -Please come and have some tea.

Nawab, you dog. You're alive?

It'll take a lot more to kill me!

Hello, everybody! Ahuja!

Poor girl!

Why haven't you informed your family you survived Rangoon?

Your mother thinks the Japanese killed you.

They're preparing for your death anniversary, inform them.

Yes, I'll write to her.

Not a letter, send a telegram. Come along.

-My stomach's growling. -Come, I'll get you fed.

When you went missing, I realized...

that I don't love you.

Had you told me earlier, I wouldn't have come back.

Love is too small a word.

Without you, I have no reason to live.

What an ugly scar...

I hate it.

There's a new English doctor in Bombay.

A cosmetic surgeon.

He can remove it.

How's grandpa?

-He must be fine. -What about the stroke?

It was a lie. To keep me away from you.

So, then...

You can't plan love. It just happens.

I've put in my divorce papers.

I am starting my new studio.

And a new life.

It's a wound.

Wear it once this heals.

It won't heal anytime soon.

Are you mad? It'll hurt you.

It should hurt.

How else will I know...

this is not a dream?

Safety, utmost importance! Please!

Rusi, General Slim has deployed

five anti-aircraft guns, especially for Miss Julia.

Every road that leads to Burma

now has a British post.

Not even a bird

could fly over to this side now.

Sergeant Malik!

At ease.

Mr. Billimoria wanted to see you.

-Thank you, Sergeant. -It was my duty, sir.

You saved not one but two lives.

-Anything I can do to return the favor? -Thank you, sir.

-Anything? -It's really not necessary.

Sergeant Malik, on Miss Julia's personal request,

I'm recommending you for the Victoria Cross.

Thank you, Miss Julia.

You deserve it, Nawab.

That will be all, Sergeant.

Wait, here.

Have some opium.

Akbari Afeem.

Be careful, David.

Why? What happened?

An epidemic.

There's a disease spreading.

Malaria? Drink a tea made of cloves and cinnamon.

You can escape malaria, David.

But there's no escaping a case of Julia.

What?

Poor Sergeant Malik. He's dead.

And so am I!

What a bad joke, Rusi.

And David, you seem just fine.

On seeing her, my face brightens, Miss Julia...

On seeing her, my face brightens

and shrouds my illness.

-Very good, David! -Thank you.

This fellow here... he's very good at heart.

I'll never forgive God for playing this joke on me!

He made the poor fellow mute. When I was born...

And him...

Zulfi, costumes. Zulfi?

Where is Zulfi?

He hasn't come by all day. Is he dead or what?

-Maybe. -What?

Don't be naive.

Everybody knows that he was swept away in the river

trying to save your precious costumes.

Brace yourselves!

Listen to the call of these wild doves!

Julia! Julia!

She isn't ready yet?

Shall we cancel the show?

Zulfi...

The army is looking for him.

They'll find him just as they found you.

Come on. Everyone's waiting.

I can't.

What have I always told you?

The show must...

Must...

-Go on. -Go on.

My Julia.

But what am I going to wear?

Bloody hell!

Bloody hell!

I, be walking walk, walk, walk!

Walk, walk, walk!

He, the talking Talk, talk, talk!

Talk, talk, talk!

I, be walking, Walk, walk, walk!

Walk, walk, walk!

He, the talking Talk, talk, talk!

Talk, talk, talk!

I said good-good morning

Good morning! Good morning!

Blimey! On my palms He placed a golden ring

Boy! Round and round Yes, round and round

I wobbled on my feet, dizzy

Mumbling "no, no" and "sorry" Fell in love, made love, English-style

Mumbling "no, no" and "sorry" Fell in love, made love, English-style

And openly sipped the wine Of those lips, English-style

When suddenly rang a bell

Bloody hell! Bloody hell!

Bloody hell! Bloody hell!

Mumbling "no, no" and "sorry" Fell in love, made love, English-style

And openly sipped the wine Of those lips, English-style

When suddenly rang a bell

Bloody hell! Bloody hell!

Bloody hell! Bloody hell! Hell! Hell!

Draped in a suit and in nifty boots

Draped in a suit and in nifty boots

-He was in a parachute -He was in a parachute

Flying off here and there Carrying the earth with him to the sky

No, I did not leave him Nor did I break his heart

He got himself into a tangle The gentleman, the good man

He got himself into a tangle The gentleman, the good man

He was crazy and I was lazy

His eyes gently uttered My name in English

And openly sipped the wine Of those lips, English-style

When suddenly rang a bell

Bloody hell! Bloody hell!

Bloody hell! Bloody hell! Hell! Hell!

Is there a tiger here who can take on Miss Julia?

Who will be Miss Julia's prey tonight?

Me! Me! Me!

David, your life is far too important.

What if I miss?

I need someone whose life can be sacrificed.

How about you, Sergeant Nawab Malik?

Where are you?

The magic of his eyes...

Like a knife out of control...

-Who was she? -Mema.

My Mema.

He got himself into a tangle The gentleman, the good man

He got himself into a tangle The gentleman, the good man

From the right and the left...

From all flanks as the attacks came English-style

Even as he fell Held on to me, English-style

And openly sipped the wine Of those lips, English-style

When suddenly rang a bell...

Bloody hell! Bloody hell!

Bloody hell! Bloody hell!

Bloody hell!

He went that way.

Stop, Zulfi!

-Don't harass me. -Zulfi!

Hey... stop!

Or I'll jump into the well.

-Zulfi, listen to me. -No!

-Come down. -No.

You lied! You said that the Japanese were with us.

-Yes, they are with us. -Really?

Then why did they attack us?

-Such big-- -Hey, Zulfi!

They dropped such big bombs!

Because we were at the wrong place at the wrong time.

-Come. -No.

I'm warning you, Nawab.

-Or I'll really jump. -All right, I'm leaving.

Okay, do whatever you want.

-I'll really jump. -At least take this opium.

Another lie?

I got this for you, Akbari Afeem.

-What is that? -It's very good, smell it.

-I'll smell it from there itself. -Are you a dog?

I've been smoking for ages.

-Yes, stand back. -Okay, you take it.

-Fine, I'll take it. -Take it.

Nawab, just let me go.

You said I'd have to watch the trunk only till the first show.

Then I'm free.

Are you mad?

I've explained it to him a hundred times since this morning.

I'll say it again.

Since the attack, the Brits have become much more alert.

The last show is at Singhat camp.

From there, the trunk can safely be taken

to the other side across the river.

Then why don't you hide it in your ambulance?

Between your injections and medicines.

Look, Zulfi...

You know it'll be safest with Julia.

No one would suspect her.

Here.

You have to return tomorrow.

I'll brief you on where to go

and what to say.

Meaning?

I'm not going back into the jungle alone.

-Zulfi... -No way, that's impossible!

Of course, it is possible.

You have the opium.

This Akbari Afeem isn't burning.

What will I do? Smoke a joint with wild bears?

On the contrary, they will fear you.

Yeah.

You're no less than a lion after a hit of this.

No less than a lion.

I'm not going anywhere.

Take this.

Look, Zulfi, all our hopes and dreams are hidden in this box.

Don't let us down.

May virtue, joy and peace be showered

Dispenser of India's destiny

Punjab, Sind, Gujarat, and Maratha

Dravida, and Odisha and Bengal

It echoes in the hills Of Vindhyas and Himalayas

Mingles in the music Of the Yamuna and the Ganga

If you must shed blood, shed it for your motherland,

not for her enemies.

Go back. But work for the INA.

We have a mission.

A highly-prized sword.

In exchange, we'll receive ammunition for our war.

That sword will lead our nation to freedom.

That sword will break the shackles of slavery.

Victory forever

Victory forever

Victory forever

Mail has arrived! Baldev, mail has arrived!

This medicine is for you?

-And this letter for the other side. -Okay, fine.

Keep this bag down and pick that up!

Furthermore...

-Sir! -Yes?

Captain Nawab Malik.

"The package is safe.

We will meet...

on the full moon night.

Hail India!"

What's the unwan of your next film?

"Unwan"? What's that?

Title... What's the title of your next film?

-Queen of the Express. -Queen of the Express?

And what's it about?

It's a thriller, David. A heist.

-Stealing from a running train. -Wow!

Queen of the Express! Are you excited?

Miss Julia, where are you?

I'm very excited. Very excited.

-But she's not in Queen of the Express. -What?

Hey, kiddo...

Soon you'll be Mrs. Billimoria.

After marriage, no films.

Why not?

Devika was married. Her husband never stopped her.

Himanshu was a "Rai", not a "Billimoria".

Zulfi?

Zulfi? Zulfi!

-Zulfi! -Hurry up, come!

Where were you, buddy?

Zulfi!

Where were you, buddy?

All the world's a stage and the stage is mine.

Ours! Ours!

I have a surprise for all of you.

Hitler!

Russia...

No, it's vodka and... no!

Not there.

Oh, no, they'll commit harakiri.

No! Never!

Okay, close your eyes.

Two steps forward.

And then a left!

-Okay, release. -Release!

-Julie, what are you doing? -Open it.

Yes, Sergeant.

What is it?

Zulfi, what time is my entry on stage?

I just told you. Five minutes.

Double check please.

Entry.

I wanted to tell you something important.

Tell me.

I'm embarrassed about what happened in the jungle.

Okay.

And also a little mad at you.

-At me? -Yes.

I was vulnerable for a minute and you pounced on the opportunity.

All right, I made a mistake.

Forgive me.

Listen...

Yes?

I had something else to say too.

Tell me.

I want to apologize to you.

For what?

This.

You mean, this.

On the contrary, I should thank you for this.

Why?

I took advantage of you.

You could have taken revenge during the knife act.

How bad is the wound? Show me.

Are you embarrassed? You weren't shy when you undressed me.

Why are you doing this to me?

Doing what?

What happened was wrong.

A 100% wrong.

We must stay away from each other.

Far away.

Where is Miss Julia? Everybody's waiting.

She's getting ready.

Right.

You can't go in.

-Stop me. -I said, you can't go in.

-What the... -Hello, Major!

I'm ready, let's go.

-Zulfi, get the bags. -Yes.

Bloody swine!

-Miss Julia, this way. -Sure.

Zulfi!

My cursed fate!

I'm going to get slaughtered over your love affair.

Both of you will get yourself killed and drag me along too.

Listen, stay away from her.

If her man finds out, he'll bury you both alive.

-Zulfi, my pistol-- -To hell with it!

Especially for you!

The celestial fairy has arrived.

The daredevil Miss Julia!

My beloved went to England

My beloved went to England Playing in the band

Who knows where he will land Lest Hitler is startled!

Beware, lest Hitler is startled! Beware, lest Hitler is startled!

Beware, lest Hitler is startled!

My beloved went to England

My beloved went to England Playing in the band

Who knows where he will land Lest Hitler is startled!

Beware, lest Hitler is startled! Beware, lest Hitler is startled!

Beware, lest Hitler is startled!

-Here's to your entire company, Rusi. -Here's to you, David.

White Monkey! Go home, Whitey!

You chinless wonders, go back to your caves!

Go home, Whitey!

When my beloved flew in the flying Machine for the first time

Catching hold of the moon He jumped off

That wasn't me, I was in the bathroom when...

-Do you smoke opium? -No.

If he falls in Paris The Eiffel Tower, will break his fall

By God's grace, he will be saved

Blimey! He has lost all his hair Yet he cuts a grand figure

Lest he is startled awake, Churchill! Lest he is startled awake, Churchill!

Lest he is startled awake, Churchill! Lest he is startled awake, Churchill!

Rusi sir?

Where, in the fields, I still lie

I still wait in the fields Where we used to meet

I simply wish he does not forget My bus stand

Conductor, don't miss my bus stand

Conductor, don't miss my bus stand

Zulfi!

Conductor, don't miss my bus stand

Driver, don't miss my bus stand

Nawab, Zulfi!

Who knows where he will land Lest Hitler is startled

Stop!

Beware, lest Hitler is startled

Put the gun down.

Julia, I'm innocent.

-I'm innocent, Julia. -Drop it.

He'll kill me.

He won't, drop the pistol.

Drop it now.

Drop it.

Here you go.

White monkey!

Julia...

I've had enough here...

Zulfi?

-Zulfi? -Zulfi?

This is a Webley Scott revolver.

How did he get a British Army pistol?

Sergeant Chandan Pandey!

-Sergeant Hukum Singh! -Yes, Captain!

-Captain Karamveer Singh! -Yes, Captain!

-Sergeant Bahadur Chattri! -Nawab!

-My friend Zulfi is no more. -Sergeant Nawab Malik!

Nawab, what are you doing here?

The Captain is calling for you. Come on.

Come on now!

Sergeant Bahadur.

-Sergeant Hukum Singh. -Sir!

Sergeant Ram.

Sergeant Nawab Malik.

Yes, our local hero.

Sergeant Gurung.

Sergeant Sarabjit Singh.

Mr. Billimoria, where should we dispatch the body to?

Where it belongs.

In the jungle, with the animals.

Mr. Rusi, for God's sake...

We'll bury him.

If you wish to be buried alongside him,

you can go ahead and dig his grave. Please.

Dump the body in the jungle.

He was an INA spy.

Which of you knew that?

Are there others like him...

amongst you?

Or amongst us?

Yes.

Of course, there's one amongst us.

Mr. Billimoria...

But you can't even control a dozen of your own people, for shame.

-I understand... -No, you do not understand!

I can have you arrested for this.

Come on, David, please--

Excuse me, that's Major General Harding to you.

And what are you smiling at, you moron?

If you had any sense, you wouldn't have shot him

and we could've caught the mole.

11:00 p.m. tomorrow, at Singhat.

He faithfully worked for you for 15 years.

You denied him his last rites.

I can't tell...

if you're naive or stupid.

At least I'm not heartless.

Hey, kiddo...

Come here.

Come... come...

Your tongue has become as sharp as your knives.

Nothing of mine is mine, Rusi.

Neither my tongue. Nor my heart.

Not even my mind.

You set me free and I fly.

You call me

and I'm back in your lap.

When you want, I'm Julia,

when you wish, Mrs. Billimoria.

Such big words from my little Julia.

Who's been teaching you all this?

Remember...

It's a Rusi Billimoria creation.

He followed me like a shadow.

Yet I was unaware that...

he was working for the INA.

What would you have done if he'd told you?

I'd have saved him.

Explained to him that the INA

is with monsters

like the Japanese, Hitler, Mussolini--

It's easy to see those monsters.

But what about the monster that lives here?

The British.

Nobody sees them.

Not me...

but Zulfi.

This is what he'd have said if he were alive.

What can be more important than one's life?

There is.

That...

for which one can die!

Bloody hell.

This is love

This is love...

The flame from the Sufi's lamp

The embers keep burning Even when doused

This is love, this is love

The river sleeps Resting its head on the banks

Has been flowing for ages Rising from the eyes

This is love, this is love...

This is love, this is love

Seeking solitude

Weaving shadows

Keeping its ears open For the silk of the eyes

This is love, this is love

You'll get me killed.

Don't worry, nothing will happen.

-How come? -Because I'm God.

I can do anything.

Like?

I can stop time, wrap the sky around myself.

I can swallow the earth.

I can betray death, in your love...

I can do anything, oh beloved! Oh, the essence of my life!

-Which movie is that from? -No, I'm really God.

The flame rises from the Sufi's lamp Praise the Lord

It has to keep burning Till neither I nor you remain

This is love, this is love

Lost in his own self This Sufi, an enigma

Tabrizi, when awake... Rumi, when he speaks

This is love...

To the bomb shelter! Hurry up! Keep moving!

We'll get to that, but first position all the anti-aircraft guns.

Let's show the bloody nips who we are.

David... Julia is missing.

That is not my concern.

Take him inside.

Come on, lads! Let's look lively.

Lend me a hand.

Keep going.

Major Williams.

Harding.

Okay, good. Keep me posted.

Thank you, Williams.

It's all over. One plane is down

and the others are on their way back to Nipland!

Three cheers for our boys.

-Hip-hip! -Hurrah!

-Hip-hip! -Hurrah!

Is there anyone here...

who can...

win over Julia?

Lover or warrior?

Come forward.

Rusi!

Miss Julia...

Your quarry is here.

Pull out your knives.

Friends!

Julia is brave...

then what is this secret?

Her lips quiver...

Her eyes widen in fear...

Is this a spell cast upon her...

or is it love?

The heart's greatest enemy is the heart itself.

Fiery is a lover's temperament.

Tell me, kiddo.

-What? -The truth...

that is buried in your heart...

and on the tip of my tongue.

Rusi, you left us all breathless today.

For a moment it felt that you may indeed rip Julia's heart out.

We're professionals, Mr. Patel.

It's our job to make lies look true.

Wow! Very well said!

But the vicious strikes

weren't false, Miss Julia.

Any wounds?

Part of the game.

I'm fine.

Sometimes the wound is in one place,

the pain in another.

Miss Haseena...

Mr. Billimoria, we're still searching for Sergeant Malik.

He will be here any moment.

Thank you, Major.

Only one of us can live...

Me...

or him.

Nawab!

Nawab, you need to get out of here right now.

Rusi is going to kill you.

He's looking for you!

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Mema.

VICTORY TO INDIA

Indian National Army.

Mema!

Come back!

Come back!

Go on, Mema.

We have very little time. Get going.

Nawab, you...

Yes.

Captain Nawab Malik,

Gandhi Brigade,

Indian National Army.

We have a visitor, Major General.

At this hour? Who?

A very special guest.

I think you'd want to meet them.

Good.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

Come with me.

You're a traitor.

Not just for me, but for your army too.

For your entire community!

I was a traitor...

when I was a British soldier.

I realized that I've been a slave for generations.

We need freedom from these monsters.

Whether we die for it...

or kill for it.

My life's for the taking.

Take it.

Nawab, you're making a mistake.

Kill me or you'll get killed.

Are you even alive?

Had you been,

you'd have realized the tyranny of your masters.

You'd have heard the screams of the innocents.

I don't have to kill you.

You...

are buried in your own body.

Not Bad.

You bloody traitor!

Williams, stop!

Mema, you too.

Bhyro Singh.

INA.

Yes.

First your make-up man,

now our nurse.

And there could be many more.

-How did you find out? -That oldie ratted them out for money.

I tell you, if the British ever leave India,

this is going to become one of the most corrupt societies in the world.

What will happen to him if you die?

Have mercy for your child...

and tell me who else is working with you.

How about now?

Not my child...

No! Please not my child.

Mommy...

Major General.

-This isn't right. -Pish-Posh.

I'm white, I'm always right.

Major...

Take the gun.

Take the gun, Mr. Billimoria.

I told you to take the gun!

Who is it? Who else?

-No, Rusi. -What are you waiting for?

Shoot damn it! Show us your loyalty!

No!

May virtue, joy and peace be showered

Dispenser of India's destiny

Punjab, Sind, Gujarat, and Maratha

Dravida, and Odisha and Bengal

It echoes in the hills Of Vindhyas and Himalayas

Mingles in the music Of Yamuna and the Ganga

May we chant you forever

May you be the reason of survival

May we get all the same hope

May we shine in the world Just as the sun

And make India proud

Victory!

Victory!

Victory!

Victory, victory, victory to thee

Glory to India!

I'm afraid, you won't be getting your Victoria Cross after all.

Although I shall recommend that you're nailed to one.

Take the traitor away.

Miss Julia, unfortunately I won't be able to attend your last show.

I'm leaving for Calcutta today with the two-edged sword.

Two-edged?

It'd appear that Sergeant Malik is the sharper side of this two-edged sword.

I'm not leaving him behind. If you'll excuse me.

You know that was the INA anthem he was singing.

Sir?

It saddens me that Tagore's beautiful tune

should be used for such a doomed cause.

Mommy!

Wake up, mom.

Eat a little.

-A little bit. -Mommy!

-Calm down, dear. -Mommy.

Give me blood,

and I shall give you freedom.

We all want freedom but we'd rather let someone else bleed for it.

What can be more important than one's life?

There is.

That for which one can die.

Very beautiful!

J-U-L-I-A...

Only your name, Julia

Y-O-U-R...

I'm your slave, Julia

Every moment, every bit

Mesmerizing Julia...

Oh, my, it rains daggers

Your killer gaze, Julia

There goes, there she goes, Julia Here and there and everywhere

All over, God knows where

There goes, there she goes, Julia Here and there and everywhere

All over, God knows where

Raised by the fall, Julia!

Hey, cracking her whip, Julia!

Julia...

Soaring like an eagle

When she swoops, Julia

She will raise

Quite a storm, Julia

She will burst forth

Like gushing water

She will strike you

Like lightning!

There goes, there she goes, Julia Here and there and everywhere

All over, God knows here

There goes, there she goes, Julia Here and there and everywhere

All over, God knows where

Raised by the fall, Julia The monsoon's paramour, Julia

Adept at all the arts, Julia Hey, cracking her whip, Julia

Julia...

Mango-Gamma to base camp. Come in, base camp.

Oh, Julia... Miss Julia

Bhyro Singh!

Bhyro Singh, open the door.

Release Nawab.

Release him, that's an order!

Guns.

Of course, Miss Julia.

Drop your guns.

You filthy...

Isn't there a women's regiment in the INA?

The Queen of Jhansi Regiment?

Major Sir!

Over there!

Major General, thank god you're alive. We thought--

You thought I was what? Dead?

Thankfully I'm a better actor than these so-called performers!

Base to Mango-Gamma. Sir...

One jeep is leaving with reinforcements.

The road is inaccessible by trucks. Sir, over and out.

How much farther?

Get to the bridge!

Fall out!

Where are the reinforcements?

I don't know, sir. They should've been here before us.

Shit!

Over there.

I'm out, Sir!

They're running out of ammunition.

Take the sword and cross the bridge.

And you?

I'll hold them off, leave now.

Not without you.

Son of a gun!

Once you cross over,

the INA post is about two miles away. Inform them.

I can hold them off till they get here.

The hopes and dreams of millions depend on this sword.

Go, Julia.

Go.

Stop!

Wait!

Move!

Nawab!

She's gone, sir.

Miss Julia, I request, please...

Come back here.

If for no one else, Miss Julia,

please come back for Rusi.

Kiddo, come back!

Oh, my, my!

Look!

Your beloved is alive!

Julia!

No!

-Go back. -Hold back.

We need that sword.

They won't spare my life.

Trying to save me is pointless--

Miss Julia.

I promise

a fair trial for Sergeant Malik and no case for you.

My word before my life.

If not by bullets,

then on the gallows.

My death is certain tomorrow.

But you're alive today.

Stop, Sergeant Malik!

What the hell is he trying to do, sir?

The rascal wants to get himself killed.

Sergeant Malik, one more step and you're dead.

Go Julia!

Farewell it is, surely not goodbye

The body is surely not bereft of the soul

-Blow the bridge! -No!

Kiddo, come back.

Kiddo!

Kiddo... stop.

What do you want?

Can you really give me what I want?

Anything for you.

Will you take this...

to where it belongs...

on the other side?

Come on, now.

I can't live without you.

But I've already died with him.

Bloody hell.

I'm so sorry, Mr. Billimoria.

Our sword.

We expect faithfulness from those...

Who know not what faith means.
