The news is confirmed.

Majumdar Dada will be hanged.

Everyone's here?

Shams-Ul-Alam is a British lapdog.

He has reached his rank by trampling over the corpses of his own.

All this mess is because of him.

He needs to be taught a lesson.

How?

Only Majumdar knows where the pistol--

I don't need a pistol to kill him, Dada.

Jatin,

we have all decided to let Shams-Ul go, for now.

We can't risk the entire Jugantar just because we got emotional.

-Jatin Da. -Let him go.

Let him calm down a bit.

If we had the pistol, it would be a different matter.

An empty stomach doesn't calm the rage.

I'm not looking to calm it.

Machher jhol (Fish curry).

It won't taste any good once it goes cold.

If you really think about it,

the priest, the wife, the last meal...

Even the British have the decency to honor a man's last wish, right?

Majumdar Dada can see his wife one last time, can't he?

And in that meeting, if the pistol...

Yes, but nobody knows where his wife is.

You know it. I know it.

The Brits don't.

What?

Isn't it so?

Good.

But,

this food still isn't as good as my mother's.

Your wife is here to meet you.

Come.

How did this happen?!

Oh God, how could you let this happen?

Bagha Jatin sent me here.

We need to know where you have hidden the pistol.

The pistol is in locker 35 at Howrah station.

In the presence of His Lordship, Sir Neville Hartwright,

this court, under Section 302,

for the murder of British officers,

sentences Anushilan Samiti leader, R. C. Majumdar,

to death by hanging in Alipore Jail.

The court recommends that CID officer Shams-Ul-Alam receive

an appropriate reward for his service.

Shams-Ul!

Bloody British lapdog!

Remember. If you join the Bengal Ambulance Corps,

you will be a part of the British Army.

Kindly pay attention.

The S.S. Komagata Maru has arrived at Harbor Number Three,

Royal Calcutta Docks.

S. S. Komagata Maru.

Harbor Number Three.

Attention please.

S. S. Komagata Maru has docked at Harbor Number Three,

at the Royal Calcutta Docks.

Move.

Just saying, Parjaiji (sister),

I came in on a ship too,

but I didn't have a bunch of Bengali women waiting around to welcome me.

Didi (sister),

that Komagata Maru...

That ship...

The people from America and Canada

came on that very ship, right?

I don't know.

I mean, I am not sure.

Oh, I see.

So, who are you waiting for?

I'm not waiting for anyone.

Just like the other people over here,

I have come to see someone.

My son...

Probably for the last time.

Meaning?

Look...

look over there.

The one with the beard.

He is joining the Bengal Ambulance Corps.

Actually,

can you read English?

-Yes, I can. -You can?

Can you read this for me?

They are sending him to fight for the British Army

in Gallipoli, Turkey.

That's what it says.

It says Turkey here.

If one joins the army,

the British have promised to give some money

and land.

But...

if my son is no longer alive,

what is the point of the land?

Calm down. Everything will be fine.

He's just 17 years old.

The Brits are recruiting for the army.

Bengal Ambulance Corps.

They are here to see them off.

Something is off, Veerji (Brother).

They haven't even put out the gangplank to disembark.

By order of the British Crown,

under the Indian Penal Code,

all activity at the Royal Calcutta Docks

is being shut down immediately due

to a suspected terrorist threat.

Lt. Col. Dyer and DCP Charles Tegart

are personally present at the docks.

They will be overseeing all security arrangements themselves.

Only those who are volunteering

for the Bengal Ambulance Corps

are allowed to present at the docks.

Under the authority granted to me

by the B-British Crown,

as per Section 98

of the 1898 Code of Criminal Procedure.

The entire Komagata Maru ship will be searched.

We have intel

that the ship carries

both men and plans of rebellion

against the B-British Raj.

Until the investigation is complete,

Harbor Number Three is sealed.

Let's go.

Seal the premises.

Lock all entrances.

No one in or out.

Understand?

Crazy girl!

The Brits knew.

They have sealed the docks!

-Dada... -Step aside, Chote.

Dada... Calm down. Please, calm down.

-Dada... -Dada!

You've heard the story of the tiger, right?

Every Bengali kid knows it. Think it through.

I have.

And I have also thought about the fact that

when you are standing surrounded by your brothers' dead bodies,

you'll be asking yourself,

"Why did I throw away my Jugantar brothers' lives

in a war we were bound to lose?

Against an enemy far stronger than us."

What happens then, Jatin Dada?

You have a sharp tongue.

Yes...

and sharp ears too.

What's the point in rushing into a war in a fit of rage?

What?

In a fit of rage?

I went too far...

That's not what I meant.

It is your lucky day.

Ask him to rest.

Dada...

You planned the Rodda mission for two whole years...

Carefully. Patiently. Every detail is thought through.

Even now, we just need to...

He has a loose tongue.

You two make quite the pair.

So, Master Ji,

what should we do next?

What should we do?

Before deciding that,

we should consider what Rash Dada might be thinking.

Right.

We need to figure out

how the British got wind of it.

No.

How it happened, why it happened...

Bose Babu won't be interested in it.

What's done is done.

Thinking about it now is pointless.

What are you doing?

Hurry up!

Fast.

You have to keep it straight.

Put the gangplank properly so we can open the door!

Straight.

Straight.

Keep it straight!

No one leaves till every last one of you is searched.

-Get back inside. -We have been stuck up here for ages.

Why can't we leave?

You don't leave till you have been searched.

-Why can't we leave? -Come on, let's move.

-Why can't we leave? -Yes, let's go.

Let's go!

Charge!

Move!

Guards, come!

Step aside!

We are all walking out of here.

Yes, let's go!

Charge!

You think I care too much about my Jugantar brothers...

Just imagine, those soldiers who came all this way

answering Rash Dada's call for revolution...

How heavy their safety must be weighing on him right now?

Let's go!

Go back inside!

Charge!

How the British found out doesn't matter.

What happens to these people next...

Close it.

Close it.

That question will outweigh every other one.

Harder!

Maan Singh, we heard back in Ludhiana

that Har Dayal's sending them in from America, didn't we?

Find them.

Sorry, sir, but...

they are not letting us inside.

They have formed a human wall.

Then break the wall, Maan Singh.

And search the ship...

Or find their leader.

And...

-shoot him dead in front of everyone. -Sir.

Sir. Sorry, sir.

Maan Singh,

that's the only way these savages will understand.

Sorry, sir.

Maan Singh,

if you s-say sorry o-one more time,

I will shoot you.

Lt. Colonel,

Arthur Atkinson and Benedict Peterson

from the Viceroy's office.

Gentlemen, may we have the room?

Maan Singh, you too.

Mondal, some tea for the gentlemen.

All American ships expected to dock at Calcutta have been identified.

S.S. Tenyo Maru.

Sailed out of California,

passed through Yokohama and Shanghai...

was held up in Manila.

And S.S. Mongolia...

230 passengers boarded it at San Francisco.

It sailed from Hong Kong.

They were caught carrying weapons and seditious papers on them.

And the same material will be found on the Komagata Maru.

Those two men out there...

They have just come in from the Viceroy's office.

Here to recruit Indian volunteers

to the British army for the Great War campaign.

I don't need to tell you

that half of our soldiers are Sikhs from Punjab.

You probably know better than I

how badly the British Raj needs soldiers right now.

-Or-- -Taking care...

of the Sikh passengers on Komagata is our priority,

Lt. Colonel.

Sir.

They have arrested Har Dayal in America.

Long live... Lala Har Dayal!

Long live... Lala Har Dayal!

Long live... Lala Har Dayal!

Long live... Lala Har Dayal!

Long live... Lala Har Dayal!

Mr. Har Dayal Mathur,

do you believe in or advocate for the overthrow

of the Government of the United States of America

by force or violence?

No.

Of all governments?

No.

Of the 11 rules of law?

No.

Are you, in fact, responsible for inciting

a revolution against the British Government in India?

For recruiting young men and

sending ships to India with weapons?

I believe the British Government in India

is an illegitimate one.

It is a government that neither I

nor any self-respecting Indian,

living in India or overseas, can recognize.

And therefore,

how can I be accused of inciting a revolution

against a government that I do not believe exists?

My lawyer is waiting outside.

I believe I am allowed to confer with him

as per the Sixth Amendment of your great nation's constitution?

-There they are. -Yeah.

You can speak with your client now.

Appreciate it. Thank you.

Come.

Come in.

Har Dayal, my child...

This wasn't routine questioning.

The Brits already know everything.

The British regret the inconvenience caused to the passengers of the ship.

All of you can proceed to Room Number 14.

Let your personal belongings remain on the ship.

Once the inspection is complete,

you will all be allowed to leave.

Arrangements for food and water have been made for everyone.

Kirpal Singh,

Polo Ram,

Bhan Singh,

Jawahar Mal...

They'll find everything.

That's Gurdit Darji (Grandfather).

He's carrying the Guru Granth Sahib.

Sir, stop.

I'll have to search that.

No.

You won't be able to take this off my hands, son.

They are all Lala Ji's followers.

They've all come to join you.

I need to speak to them.

I'll make it happen.

Boudi...

Nothing will happen.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart.

These bloody Indians,

they look simple, but they are not simple.

Very innocent. But they are not innocent.

They are smart.

Dada!

Dada, please.

Please, I can't hold it in anymore.

Excuse me, sir...

Sir!

Sir, please hear me out.

-Excuse me. -It's urgent.

Yes?

Sir, I request on behalf of the women here

to make the arrangements to access the latrine.

Please, I can't hold it in anymore.

I'm pleading with you, sir.

My son is anyway leaving me, going to some place in Gallipoli, Turkey.

I don't even know when I'll see him next.

I have seen this before. This is a trick.

No, please, sir. I'm telling the truth.

I don't know when I'll see him again.

Please, just this once.

We'll go to the latrine and come straight back.

We won't take much time.

Please have some mercy.

Please, sir.

I'll come back quickly.

-Okay. -Okay?

Go.

Thank you, sir.

Okay.

Thank you.

All the women who need to use the latrine,

come with me.

-Come on. -I want to go.

You do? Then come with me.

-Let's move. -Thank you.

They've started getting passengers off the ship.

But until

the police conclude the search,

they won't let them leave the docks.

I'll have to go there.

Dada. Dada, please.

I beg you...

Suzie has a fiancé.

Suzie's able to give us this information

because her fiancé is enlisting in the Bengal Ambulance Corps.

Right now, only those are allowed inside

who are ready to die for the British,

or ready to... get killed by them.

The address in Calcutta.

You know the city well...

You'll find your way.

Rash Dada gave it to me.

In case there's no other option...

Rash Dada must be in danger.

We, I mean, I will have to go, Pratibha.

Pratibha...

All youths who are joining, be ready.

Obey the officers' orders.

No one leaves this place until I return.

Understood?

Take my bag.

You'll be sent to Gallipoli, Turkey.

You will get two acres of land and 25 rupees every month.

Do you accept it?

Your name and hometown?

Hey, what are you all doing here?

Stay alert.

Be on guard.

Bose sent you, dear?

Water?

Rash and Kartar are outside, in the waiting room.

It won't be long before the Brits' suspicion turns into certainty.

They are saying

they will send us straight to Punjab from Calcutta, by train.

There is no train from Calcutta to Punjab, Gurdit Ji.

It is a trap.

All of us accepted Lala Ji

and Bose's call from our hearts.

We are ready to fight and ready to die.

Move. Step aside.

Hide.

Step aside.

Who is Surain Singh?

Step forward!

No one here will talk

until you answer my questions, son.

Sardar Ji,

they found a pistol and seditious books in his belongings.

Whatever you want to ask,

ask in front of me.

Fine, Sardar ji.

With you there, it'll actually help.

Point 38 caliber pistols,

all carrying the same serial number.

And those seditious books we found...

We'll go through those right in front of you, too.

Come with us.

Give me a minute.

Tell Bose to wait for my signal.

War.

It is nothing less.

They are preparing for war.

We do not have the evidence to substantiate that,

Lt. Colonel.

Ghadar!

Tell them what Ghadar means!

Tell them!

Revolution, sir.

Evidence!

Tell him what that means!

Lt. Colonel, some of the youth...

are hot-blooded

and may have been influenced,

brainwashed to come and stir up some trouble.

Surely that doesn't mean

all 376 passengers have been sent to overthrow the British Empire.

Deputy Commissioner, let me r-remind you...

"We have sons, brothers, fathers

fighting in Europe for His Highness.

I, like the others, have crossed oceans to celebrate

the birth of our Guru on the second of November.

I need to reach the Holy Harmandir Sahib on that sacred day."

That's Baba Gurdit Singh's official statement.

And as far as I'm concerned...

It's the truth.

Don't you think, Lt. Colonel?

They have to be let go.

In any case,

I'll have them released on my command.

As well, you should.

Let's put an end to this mess.

It's okay, Reggie.

Now that Tweedledum and Tweedledee have left the room,

let's get down to business.

Rash Behari Bose,

Jyotindra Nath Mukherjee,

and Sachindra Nath Sanyal.

If you want to catch the most dangerous men in this country,

you'll have to let Gurdit Singh and his men lead you straight to them.

Once they reach there, we will aim the rifles and finish him off.

He won't escape this time.

Like they say, set the bait right,

and the fish will bite.

Forgive us, Gurdit Ji.

You are all free to go.

The train to Punjab is waiting for you at Howrah Station.

Settle down.

Go, have a seat.

Wait for his signal.

I know how Jatin will get here.

I do too.

Attention please.

All passengers of the S.S. Komagata Maru

can now proceed toward Howrah Junction.

Are you putting us on a train to Punjab?

Yes, Sardar Ji.

A direct train from Calcutta to Punjab, right?

Yes, Sardar Ji.

Bole So Nihal! (One will be blessed eternally...)

Sat Sri Akal! (Who says that God is the ultimate truth!)
