I fall, I stand up, I walk, I stumble.

I defeated death.

I've crossed the skies and had a word with the sun.

I am not arrogant, I am stubborn.

I have no control over it.

My resolute knows no bounds.

I am not arrogant, I am stubborn.

This is my resoluteness.

My obstinacy.

My self-will.

I fall, I stand up, I walk, I stumble.

I defeated death.

I've crossed the skies and had a word with the sun.

This is my resoluteness.

- Hello. - Hi. Happy Anniversary.

Jaya. How are you?

Thank you.

- How are you guys? - We're fine.

What about you guys?

How is Aman? And Deep?

Jaya, what's wrong? Is everything alright?

I don't know...

- I don't know, Deep... - Deep.

What's wrong with Deep?

I don't know.

I can't understand him these days, Aarohi.

He seems agitated, unhappy.

I don't know what to do.

Please, Jaya, get a hold on yourself.

Don't lose hope. Everything will be fine.

I'll talk to Surya.

Yeah.

Don't worry.

Bye.

Deep.

No one can help you...

...until you don't realise that you need help.

Hello, everyone.

Oh my, God. Can't believe it.

How are you?

Great. And, you? How are you guys?

See for yourself.

If you guys are done, can we sit down?

Sorry. Sit down.

Champion, how are you?

I came here to meet him.

- How are you? - Tea or coffee?

All good.

Wow...

Great.

Vimla, two cups of tea, please.

Yeah.

You know, when I met your father first...

...we had a boxing match.

And I gave him a sound thrashing.

Do you know boxing?

No?

You don't know boxing?

Then what do you know?

This is what my papa taught me.

Wow...that's great.

He's a sharp kid. Just like his father.

Right, Balu.

Are you training him as well?

How are you?

See for yourself.

Okay. Rocking, like always.

Yeah.

How are you?

I am good. How are you?

Good.

We can save the formalities for later.

Let's have breakfast first.

Let's. But we've a surprise planned for you.

Okay.

When was the last time you guys came to the mountains?

Well, it's a good thing. This way, we all got to go on a trip.

Right.

Do you know? Joy is in Assam.

And Vishal's in Arunachal.

And remember Akhilesh. He's in Jammu.

Are you in contact with anyone?

So...how's your new job?

Look straight.

I heard you made some great achievements out there too.

Huh...

Take these bags.

- Jaya. - Yeah...

Is everything alright?

Yeah...

Jaya, look at me.

- Aman's reflexes are so quick. - Yeah.

Sweet boy he is.

Have you guys decided yet?

We tried, Jaya, but I don't think it's possible.

I am sorry, I didn't know.

But it's okay. Not everyone gets everything.

Oh my...

My, God. He's so energetic.

What's your plan for lunch?

Lunch.

I'll tell you about our lunch plans.

We've an old hangout place. Let's go there for lunch.

Mountain View Hotel.

Yeah, that sounds nice.

- Okay. - Isn't it, Deep?

Yeah. Let's go.

Done.

- Good afternoon, sir. - Good afternoon.

Is there an alternate route to go upstairs?

Sorry, sir. Actually, this is the only way.

Thank you.

Let's go someplace else. Come on.

No, I want to hear stories about papa and you in this restaurant.

- Aman, let's go. - It's alright.

Let's go since we've come after so many years.

It's okay. Worst come Bhalu must have put on some weight.

When will my training come in use?

- I'll pick him up. - Don't do this.

- I'll pick you... - Don't...touch me!

I am going back.

No.

Deep.

Remember Deep,

we had a beer competition in the regiment once.

You and I lasted till the end.

We had 12 beers each.

And when you had the 13th beer...

...you puked more than you drank.

Deep.

Are you okay?

Come on, uncle, let's go play one more game.

No one plays with me.

Aman, go back inside. You'll catch a cold.

Please, uncle. One game.

- Yes... - Aman. Aman...

I told you to go inside.

No, I won't go until uncle doesn't play with me.

One game.

Jaya, can you just take Aman inside, please!

What happened?

Let's go. What is this?

What is this?

Why are you doing this?

You tell me.

Why did you bring me here?

Deep...

You've come to show sympathy.

- Deep, I know... - For a picnic.

Or to play football with my son?

Deep, I know there is something wrong.

And I know you don't want to share it with me.

It's okay.

We chose this life.

We've seen things. A lot of things.

What happened to you could've happened to me.

I am just here to help you. That's it.

But it didn't help.

And I don't need your help.

Don't ever touch Aman again.

- Uncle, when will you return? - Soon, son.

And remember everything I taught you.

Next time we'll play a lot of games, okay.

- Okay. - Take care.

Okay, now let uncle go.

Jaya.

Jaya, we'll have to save Deep.

I mean...otherwise, we'll lose him.

We tried everything, Surya.

And you know how stubborn Deep is.

And one stubborn man can break another one.

I've an idea.

I know a guy who can save Deep.

But getting to him is impossible.

Jaya...you have to do it. Please.

Please.

Okay. Bye.

Bye.

What do you think, Heathram? Which direction are they heading in?

Can't say much about the direction, sir...

...but they are definitely going to hell.

Sir, two terrorists spotted.

Confirm weapons.

So...what do you think?

I think they were heading this direction to LOC.

No.

See...

there are too much ammunition and explosives.

And this...

they have Army references, names and numbers of local contacts.

Most important, Hizbul Mujaheddin's pamphlet.

This is Sayyed Musa's group.

We'll cross this stream here.

This is where we can intercept them.

Inform headquarters, they will collect the bodies.

We'll move to intercept.

We'll move ahead.

Deep, come forward.

This is your chance.

Come on. Lead the search.

Sir.

Sir, I've spotted a radio set and some equipment.

Go ahead. Clear it.

Sir, two dead one escaped.

Let's move.

It's getting dark, sir. I think we should cease the operation for today.

And start on first light.

We can't afford to.

Sayyed Musa is a Fidayin (human-bomb) expert.

If we don't stop him tonight...

...then he'll attack one of our military bases tomorrow.

Alright, sir.

Get ready to move.

Shoot.

Shoot, asshole. Shoot! Deeo.

What the fuck are you doing?

Take him down.

Deep.

Shoot, asshole. Shoot!

- Jai Hind, sir. - Jai Hind.

Sit down, Chaudhary.

Thank you, sir.

- The mission was a success. - Sir.

But your methods could have lead to casualties.

But nothing happened, sir.

Your methods are getting problematic by the day, Chaudhary.

Take your conduct for instance, whether on the field or in training.

No one follows the rulebook anymore.

Rulebooks can only teach you to aim at cardboards...

...not in the real war.

And this is my biggest worry, Chaudhary.

This attitude.

Disobeying rules. Misconduct.

And you know, not a single officer gave good feedback for you.

I didn't join the special forces for their feedback.

And what you did this time...with Capt. Deep.

Moving forward in the jungle mission even though it was dark.

Sending your junior officer ahead.

Do you think it's smart, Chaudhary?

But the end result is what we expected, sir.

I haven't finished yet, Chaudhary.

You've been given enough safe haven.

But you're becoming a rogue officer.

Now either you mend your ways or be ready for some tough actions.

Thank you for everything, sir.

But as for changing myself...

...sorry, not possible.

My job is to prepare every soldier and officer for the worst scenario.

Whether it's in training or live mission.

And this is every senior officer's duty, and not mine alone.

But if you and the other officers think my methods are wrong, then I understand.

So I think it's best you continue with your methods...

...and I'll go my separate way.

I'll send you my resignation, sir.

I'll take your leave.

Jai Hind, sir.

Hello.

Can I talk to Colonel Ranjit Chaudhary?

Yes. Just a minute.

Sir...

Sir, call for you.

Sir...call for you.

Yeah...

Hello, Colonel Ranjit Chaudhary.

This is Jaya speaking.

Major Deep Singh Sengar's wife.

I must speak to you about Deep.

Hello.

- Wrong number. - Hello, Colonel Chaudhary...

- Please, sit. - Thank you.

I am sorry. Do I know you?

Sir, I am Jaya. I called you.

I am Major Deep Singh Sengar's wife.

- Deep who... - Yes, of course. I know.

What would you like? Tea or coffee?

Nothing. I had a glass of water. I am fine.

You've had a long journey. Have something.

I'll take tea.

Sir, it wasn't easy getting here.

No one had your address.

Then finally I got your address from...

...your ex-colleague Colonel Ashish Sharma and got here.

I am sorry, Jaya,

I am not really interested in knowing how you got here.

Why did you come here?

Sir, I need your help.

What for?

Deep.

Deep's losing.

He's losing the battle against life.

And how can I help?

I think only you can save him.

And why do you think like that?

He's distancing himself from everyone close to him.

Even from himself.

Sir, I've heard that the way you pushed Deep during SF training...

...he made up his mind that he won't give up.

And at this point of life, Deep needs that same persistence which you can give him.

Does Deep know you came here?

What do you think?

My feelings really don't matter here, does it?

Sir, will you help us?

Help can only be given to those who want it.

I don't think Deep...

Sir, you don't think...

Anyway...drink your tea.

It's a long journey, get some rest.

If you need anything, please don't hesitate.

That's Vishnu. Look after madam.

Excuse me.

Sir, but... I just...

Sit down.

I am tired, Deep.

It can't continue like this.

How can't it continue?

You refused to take a desk job in the Force, and I said nothing.

You got an MBA, and I supported you.

You got a new job, and I thought you've found a new path.

You were happy, Deep. I was happy.

We were all happy.

But now I feel you've sworn to punish yourself...

...and I can't support you on this.

Then who's telling you.

This means my presence in your life doesn't matter anymore.

It's your life. Do what you think is right.

Fine. I got my answer.

If you don't need me then what am I doing here?

You can live your life and I'll live mine.

Good.

Why didn't you take this decision earlier?

Doesn't matter. I've decided now.

I am taking Aman with me.

I won't let your toxicity affect him.

Mama...

Who the fuck is it?

No ones at home.

Who is it?

Major Deep Singh Sengar. Special Forces.

Medal of Honour Winner...in this state.

That's sad.

Why are you here?

Ohh...I got you some apples, from Kashmir.

Wow...alcohol.

Very nice.

Alcohol, the cure for every problem.

Do you drink alone?

Yes.

And I also live alone.

Very good.

Self-sufficient.

Oh, by the way, do I have your permission?

Sorry, I forgot.

Even if I don't take your permission, what's the worse you can do?

You must be tired of drinking alone.

Now have a drink with me.

Come on.

Come on. Come on. I know you like it.

Yes.

Cheers.

Erstwhile Special Forces.

Did you come here to make fun of me?

You can do that on your own.

Do you know what I hate the most, Sengar?

If someone wastes my hard efforts.

If someone wastes even a minute, it makes my blood while.

And you wasted 1,55,52,000 seconds of my life.

Sheer waste.

You came here to humiliate me, didn't you?

You came to make fun of me.

You like doing that, don't you? Are you a sadist?

And one more thing...

The 1,55,52,000 seconds that you wasted on me...

... it's your fault. It's on you.

Exactly! It's my fault.

Because I trained the wrong man.

Because the one I was training...

What did you say?

"Sir...My reason to join the Special Forces is personal, sir."

"Personal reason."

"I'll eradicate militancy from Kashmir, sir!"

Did you wipe out the militants?

Bloody fucking loser. You're dead yourself.

You quit Special Forces, even quit living.

Even your life left you, didn't she?

Did your wife run away?

Look at me.

Fucking believe it?

Why did your wife run away?

Couldn't keep her happy?

Mentally, physically...

- Huh...physically... - Shut up!

The lion's awake. You're a lion.

Lion. Lion's awake.

You want to kill me, don't you?

Kill me.

I'll...

Hit me. Hit me. Quiet.

Hit me.

Leave me.

Leave you?

Even if a wounded lion gets tired and sits down...

...he eventually dies.

And you're just a human being, and a broken one.

Your body will be lying on the road unclaimed.

Is that what you want? Huh?

A couple of people come down, carry your funeral,...

...and tell your heroic stores to your son.

Is that your dream?

Huh...tell me.

Bloody heroic fucking loser.

You liked taking challenges, didn't you?

Didn't you.

I've got a challenge for you?

All we've got to see...

...whether you're fit to take this challenge or not.

I clearly remember the day...

...when we were taken to the pool for our first swimming class.

All dead sinkers like me...

...were actually thrown into the water.

I had never entered a swimming pool before that day.

Much less learn swimming.

I still remember the panic...

...as I try to keep my head above water.

Splashing water with my hands...

...while the body weight pulling me down.

It felt like an eternity.

Once I had drunk enough water...

...I actually started drowning.

But I was keeping my eyes wide open.

I was looking for something.

Luckily I saw...

...one end of the bamboo pole.

It was thrust into the pool...

...so that I could hold on to it.

And a lifeguard...

...who was holding the other end of the pole...

...pulled me out as I hung on for dear life.

A deep sense of relief...

...filled me when I clutched that pole.

The contrast between the overwhelming fear...

...and the sense of calm.

...once I spotted the pole...

...is so memorable...

...that I can feel the pole pressing into my palm...

...as I speak right now.

I learned the importance of what I now call...

...magic wand.

Having worked in different countries...

...different organizations.

I realized that...

...the template of life never changes.

Each time life throws me into the whirlpool...

...a helpful wand appears from somewhere.

Almost magically.

Be it a situation at work.

In managing a difficult client.

Or at a personal level with self...

...or with any of our loved ones.

However...for each of these incidents...

...where the magic wand worked...

...there are countless failures.

Incidents where I was not able to get to the magic wand.

But I had not stopped looking...

...for one in every situation, every single day.

This is my resoluteness.

My obstinacy.

My self-will.
