[WATER SPLASH]

[WATER PLOPS]

Have you called the ambulance?

Yeah, I've already called them, they must be on their way.

- [CREAAKS] - [WATER PLOPS]

[WATER PLOPS]

Sir, I'll go call the ambulance once more.

Go keep him in the veranda.

The ambulance must be on it's way.

[PHONE RINGING]

[ENGINE IGNITION]

Stop right there.

SK, it was crucial for this terrorist to be alive.

I had warned you about it.

Yes, Sir. I'm not responsible for this, Sir.

That was a suicide, no one murdered him.

SK, you were in charge of him.

Look, once the body has been through an amount of pain, death comes easily.

There is no fear towards death.

And a convict can't cross those lines.

[YAWNING]

I'm sorry, Sir, I was woken up in the middle of the night.

When did he suicide?

In the evening, when the prisoners come out.

When did you find out?

8 pm.

When the cell was found empty.

Was the cell open?

[YAWNING]

I think so, Sir.

Sorry, Sir.

How was it open?

There will be an inquiry, Sir.

What nonsensical inquiry are you going to do?

It's been more than 6 months...

...and you haven't even found out which group he operated for.

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

[BUFFALO GRUNTS]

Namaste!

[MOTORBIKE ENGNIE IDLE]

Veera? Open the door Kripal is here.

[CHATTERS]

Rascal.

Hold this.

What happened to you?

What happened?

Open your mouth.

[CHUCKLES]

Catch it, Pali.

- [GASPS] - Oh, Jessi!

- Come on. - Come, come...

Come on.

- Go on, get it... - I'm going to make you lassi.

- [GROANS] - Oh no.

What is this, boys? Is this a place to play?

- Namaste, Bijji. - God bless you.

Stop playing with stones, someone's going to get hurt.

Bijji, you have been telling us not to play ever since we were 10 years old.

- So? - He's still not listening to you.

Like you have been listening to me.

I'll listen to you right away. Here, take this and make him straight.

- Traitor. - Shut up.

I'll hit him and you'll bear the marks. Don't I know you both?

It's like the romance of Romeo and Juliet, Bijji.

We'll live together and die together.

They didn't live together, nor did they die together.

Yeah, we'll look for another epic, what say, Jessi?

Jaswant, get Veera married by the next summer.

Lo and behold! She was supposed to scold them but has suddenly turned to me.

[CHUCKLES]

If Pali settles down, your brother too will follow the suit.

But they are alike.

Bijji, we'll get married together too.

You choose a girl for him, then on the same day we'll have our ceremonies.

There! If he won't get married, should Veera sit at home?

So what? She's in her own home.

Even after marriage where will she go?

She's going to stay right here.

[CHUCKLES]

Are you going to make him a house husband?

Tell him to keep me, as his in house brother in law.

[LAUGHS]

What happened, Veera?

Look at that, paaji (brother).

[KNOCKS ON DOOR]

[KNOCKS ON DOOR]

Uh, yes? What is it? Why are you going in?

What's the problem?

We'll tell you, we'll tell you.

- You go with Sir. - Yes, Sir.

What is it? Why are you'll here?

JESSI: What exactly is the matter?

- You go towards the back. - What are you'll looking for?

- Vohra Sir, what do you want? - Don't worry, you'll know it.

You'll know it.

What is it Mr. Khurrana?

Is your name J. S. Randhawa?

Yes. Jaswant Singh Randhawa.

I have to search the premises.

Why?

We have news that you have sheltered a terrorist in your house.

Terrorist?

Which terrorist are you talking about?

What is your name?

Kripal Singh.

Kripal...

How are you related to him?

He's my sister's fiance.

How many people are there in this house?

I mean how many family members do you have?

Is it only all of you who are outside? Or is anyone inside too?

There must be servants?

Are you'll having any guests?

Why are you asking her? Vohra, talk to me.

Veera, go inside. Take Bijji too.

He is absconding from Delhi, after murdering MP Kedarnath.

- What did you say his name was? - Jimmy.

- Jimmy? - Yes.

Jimmy.

Is he here or did you send him away?

He's here.

- Come, I'll make you meet him. Come. - Let's go.

Hey, Jimmy!

Jimmy!

Jimmy.

Jimmy...

[DOG BREATHING]

Come, come, come, Jimmy, come.

That is Jimmy.

[CHUCHKLES]

I don't think he knows any MP.

I persuaded him to stand for elections, he just wouldn't listen.

See that, Ramsingh? We pursued a dog!

Shut up!

Sorry, Sir.

Next time, you give him a seat in your party for the elections.

[CHUCKLES]

Let's go.

Hey, come on.

Come, come, come.

There see how I introduced them to Jimmy.

Come on.

Come, come with me to the police station.

- Why? - Don't ask questions, sit in the car.

- Take him in the car. - Let's go.

Wait, wait. Why will he go to the police station?

Oh don't worry, he'll be back in half an hour.

We'll just ask him a few questions and let him go.

Otherwise we'll have to search the house and that will be a problem to you.

Let's go.

- Okay, I'll come along with you. - I told you he'll be back.

What is with you?

- Hey! - Palli, Palli let it go.

You take care of Bijji and Veera, I'll be back.

But...

- I'll be back. - Come on, get in the van.

Come on! Get in!

Sir, you go ahead, I'll follow you.

[EINGINE IGNITION]

Yes, yes, don't worry.

What happened?

- Nothing, nothing... - Why did they take him?

You come inside, I'll explain. Come.

But what has he done for them to take him like that?

He hasn't done anything, you come inside. I'll tell you, come.

Please, come in. Believe me. Come.

[HYMN]

They said half an hour...

[HYMN]

It's been 3 hours.

[HYMN]

[ENGINE STARTS]

[REVVING]

What is it? Who do you want to meet?

- I want to see the Inspector. - INSPECTOR: Who is it? Let him in.

Go.

Yes, tell me. What is it?

Sir, I've come from Bhimedi, the Police came and took my brother.

They said they'll let him go in half an hour,

it's been 3 hours and there's no news.

What had he done?

Nothing, Sir.

They were looking for some terrorist, Jimmy.

They came to our home looking for him.

Was he hiding in your house?

We don't even know a Jimmy!

Then who is Jimmy?

It's our dog's name.

Sir, I didn't find anything so I got offerings.

- Okay, keep it inside.. - Yes, Sir.

Yeah so, what did you say your dog's name was?

Jimmy.

Yeah so why is the police looking for your dog?

[SIGHS]

Sir, there were 2 people, Inspector Vohra and Inspector Khurrana, are they here?

There is no inspector by either name.

They must have come from the headquarter.

Hey, listen! Don't you want to file a report?

D.P. Khurrana.

He's probably in the vigilance department.

He's a very senior person.

They've either gone to Chandigarh or Delhi.

But Khuranna said they'll leave him in half an hour.

How can they leave him like that, Mr? An MP has been murdered.

The inquiry will go onto the Prime Minister.

He doesn't really have to answer lot of people.

These terrorists are also too much.

You should have thought about it before getting into it.

What did you say your name was?

Kripal.

Kripal Singh?

Yes.

From Bhimidi?

Yes.

Alright.

- [VEHICLE APPROACHING] - [DOG BARKING]

Is Jassi home?

Veera?

[CRYING]

Veera.

[CRYING]

Keep faith, Veera.

Everything's going to be alright.

Stop crying. Stop crying, Veera.

Stop...

[CRYING]

There is a legal recourse, son.

It's always been there.

But nowadays they are rendered useless.

Implementers themselves break every law to their own advantage.

So, what do we do now?

I will represent your request in court, tomorrow.

But...

Sir, why are you calling my rights a request?

My brother was taken away for no rhyme or reason by the law and you...

Not the law but the police.

He's not done anything, sir!

His only crime is that he has named his dog "Jimmy".

And the police was looking after somebody named Jimmy.

They just took him away.

It's been 15 days! There's no trace of him.

His mother...

His mother has fallen unconscious so many times.

His sister hasn't stop crying ever since and you..

Is this what you call justice?

Isn't it oppression in the name of law?

By the police. Isn't the police responsible to enforce law?

There has to be something to be responsible for, isn't it?

There is no law anywhere.

It's a guerrilla war, everyone is taking advantage of that.

You...

[SIGHS]

You can't do anything, Mr. Professor.

What are you doing, son?

I'm packing some clothes, grandpa.

Those women are alone at home.

Any news about Jaswant?

Nothing yet.

Does this gun still work, grandpa?

It used to work when I'd go hunting.

It will work if something needs to be hunted.

[LAUGHING]

Will you eat some radish? Should I get it for you?

No.

- Farewell, Grandpa. - God bless you.

Take care of yourself.

And keep calm, you get angry very soon.

This isn't a hockey match, understood?

[LAUGHING]

God bless you, son. God bless you.

I should leave, grandpa.

Hey!

Hey, rascal.

KRIPAL: Jessi...

Veera?

KRIPAL: Jessi.

KRIPAL: Jessy...

KRIPAL: Jessi.

Don't tell mom.

[GROANS]

Yes, paaji.

JESSI: Don't tell mom.

VEER: Yes, Paaji.

[GROANING]

[DOOR LOCKED]

It's getting worse than what we had to face during the Partition.

What can we do? Only the wearer knows where the shoe bites.

If you have made a mistake, or are guilty then it's at least bearable.

But you can't bear it when you're innocent.

These terrorists are also majorly at fault.

Are terrorists growing in the fields?

Did you see that?

This is how terrorists are born.

This country just doesn't seem like our own.

The government doesn't seem like ours.

They come. They roam around. They pretend to be concerned.

Are all of them from this country?

Like Landlords walk in with their gunmen.

They would kill anyone who'd challenge their authority.

These politicians behave the same way.

[GROANS]

Does it burn?

Yes.

Do they hit a lot?

With their hands?

Yes.

Their legs too?

Yes.

Do they also hit with sticks and rods?

You need to shut up! The more you listen to this the more you'll cry!

[WHIMPERS]

Sometimes I really thought it would be better if they just shot me.

I know Palli can't see me like this.

Veera, you know that one time.. We...

I know.

I know both of you'll have put your own lives at stake for each other.

Yeah.

Palli is finding himself very helpless.

If he had the power, he'd...

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

- Palli? - Yeah?

- What are you doing? - Nothing.

What are you doing? Leave it.

[GASPS]

- Leave it. - Stop!

What are you doing?

I'm not doing anything, leave this.

Who are you going to kill?

- Leave it, please. - Stop it, Palli.

- Give it to me. - Stop it.

- Leave it. - Stop!

Veera, what are you doing?

Veera, stop! Don't be stupid.

[WATER SPLASHES]

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

[MOTOTR BIKE ENGINE STARTS]

[WHIMPERS]

Bijji?

Has Palli come?

These days I have no idea when he come and when he goes.

He didn't even meet me.

I know he can't see my wounds.

But he could have at least seen me.

He just threw the ointment and left.

He hasn't come ever since.

It's been 8 days now.

Is it? Then who's using the tractor behind?

It's Veera, she's been taking care of the fields.

Veera?

When did Veera learn how to drive a tractor?

- Dattu, there's more outside. - Okay.

Pass it on, child.

Come here you little rascal, come here.

When did you learn how to drive a tractor?

Kripal taught you, didn't he?

Did Kripal teach you?

Where has he been?

It's been 8 days he hasn't come.

I don't know.

Even Grandpa hasn't given any news.

Should I go and ask once?

No. Let it be.

How will you go to the other village alone?

Please?

I have no idea where he's gone.

He was saying he's going to go to Anantpur Sahib (gurudwara).

Or he'll go pray at Amritsar.

He was asking for Jeeta's address before he left.

Who is Jeeta?

Here, this is some jaggery and gram flour.

You're at your in-laws house. I'm going to give you this for your wedding too.

Jaggery and gram flour.

[LAUGHING]

Who is Jeeta?

Sarjeet Singh! His dad's sister's son.

But he's not known to be a nice fellow.

Why?

What does he do?

Nothing that's the thing.

He'd studied well, but didn't get a job.

He kept roaming about unemployed.

Then I've heard he joined those boys.

The ones who have created a nuisance.

Now I don't know if he's in Amritsar or Canada.

Come, let me drop you.

The times have become very bad.

Who knows what evils have come over my Punjab.

And you shouldn't travel alone,

the whole village becomes a ghost town in the evening.

All the doors close.

Earlier, there would be drums in the evenings.

Boys would play Kabbadi.

Now, they are playing kabbadi with death.

What would you do? Be a shepherd?

Why not?

If Ranjha (Romeo) can graze buffaloes, I could graze sheep.

[LAUGHING]

That's well said.

Then get your Heer (Juliet) here too.

I mean Veera.

I don't know, Uncle. With all that has happened.

How long has it been? A year?

It's been a year since we came here.

I'd seen her 4-5 months before that.

And you still miss her a lot, don't you?

Don't worry. Everything will be alright.

Uncle, what all will be alright?

What's going to be alright?

Is it possible to turn time back?

Can we ever return to our homes?

Sanatan doesn't think so.

Where did you meet Sanatan?

He didn't meet me, I had to go see him.

Where?

[SIGHS]

I would have got tired and returned...

I bumped into him in a restaurant at the highway.

I'd seen him earlier too, in a bus.

But that day...

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

[CLEARING THROAT]

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

Sir, what is your name, Sir?

What is this about?

No, I remember seeing you somewhere before.

- I think... - Yeah, you probably have.

A lot of newspapers carry my photo.

Your...

Why are you so bothered? Go, get on with your work.

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

Can I say something?

I wanted to ask you something.

Listen...

Sir, I'm not a goon or a thief or anything.

Nor do I have any weapons, I couldn't possibly hurt you.

You can search me.

You can probably help me.

I have come out in search for someone.

Can we please talk in a less crowded place?

Come.

Can I get my bag?

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

Who else is with you?

No one. I swear.

Sarhan is quite far from here, isn't it?

Yeah, we'll reach.

No one is ready to give a lift these days.

People have just stopped trusting each other.

Climb onto the back.

Namaste.

Come sit, Sanatan.

Victory to Vaahe Guruji! Victory is gifted by Vaahe Guruji!

[SIREN WAILING]

Hey, stop!

Go check.

What's in the back?

Nothing, just a few of our boys. There aren't any goods.

You can check, without a doubt.

Let them through.

- Alright then. Let's go. - Go, go on.

Go on now!

Does Sanatan umm.. know.. You'll are in the truck?

Yeah.

Whose truck is this?

It belongs to our chief.

Who is that?

The one in the front. Chief always drives.

What's that? In those sacks?

Pomegranates.

No, no, they are apples.

Bombs, they are bombs.

They're Indian, we've made them here itself.

Sanatan is an expert at this.

[BIRD TWEETING]

[BRAKES SREECH]

Come on, boys!

Give me that.

- Take those fruits carefully. - Hold this.

That's alright.

Where are we, Sir?

Come along, you'll find out.

How were you related to Jeeta?

He's my cousin.

My dad's sister's son.

He is no more.

Have you come to look for him or his murderer?

I killed Jeeta.

He was working for the police. Bloody police informer!

The bastard turned out to be a traitor!

He got 5 of our boys killed.

You just see! I will find at least twenty five of his ilk and kill them.

Aren't you one of them?

What have you come here for?

I.. I didn't know anything about him.

I.. My..

My friend was taken away by the police.

There was an Inspector named Khuranna.

Jessi... When Jessi came back home after 15 days...

...the police had hit him a lot.

I couldn't bare his state.. so I left.

I thought Jeeta would help me.

When I see Khuranna's face in front of my eyes, it makes my blood boil!

When I see Veera...

Isn't she your fiance?

Randhawa's sister?

Jaswant Randhawa.

I'd told Commander everything last month itself, when we met.

2 of them had come to your house, isn't it?

One was Khuranna and the other was that Vohra.

What are you going to do now?

Jeeta is dead.

Are you going to go back and help heal your friend's wounds?

Or are you going to go be the Police's bitch?

You want to get punched and kicked around?

What else can he do?

Why have you come to us?

We're professional killers or what?

If you want to kill Khuranna, do it yourself!

Go!

We will protect you.

But keep one thing in mind.

If you cross us, Randhawa and his sister,

Bijji and your grandfather, will be on our list.

We kill the poisonous plants by burning it along with its roots.

So that there are no seeds remaining.

Alright, think about it.

What is it?

Why do you have to keep touching my bag?

Are there pinnias(a kind of sweetmeat) in the bag?

- Why don't you tell us what's in the bag? - I don't want to!

He is very temperamental.

Why did you throw the gun?

Don't you know how to use it?

Come on, you'll learn.

Hey! Mr. Kapil Dev!

Give it to him in his hand properly.

It's a bomb not a cricket ball.

This is Kuldeep, he has a knack for danger.

Idiotic fool.

And he is Jaimal.

- Hi. - Kripal.

- [CLATTERS] - Yeah, and this is Vazeer.

You've already met him.

Isn't it?

Hello.

Hi.

[CHUCKLES]

Don't mess with me.

Come on.

Yaseen? Yaseen, brother?

He's come from across the border.

He's my teacher.

He's taught me how to make all these.

I'm an M. Sc in chemistry.

There. Pick up whatever you like.

Go on.

Take one.

Touch it! It keeps the hands warm.

Come on.

Come.

I was in school, when the teacher asked, "How did we get independence?".

I said, with bloodshed.

I was young.

But I remember the partition very well.

You call that a bloodless event?

The teacher told me to stand up.

And then asked the whole class, "Who got us freedom?".

Tell me, is there an answer to that?

Was it one person who fought and attained the freedom for us all?

Did he/she just bring it and present it to us, like a winning trophy? Share it.

We lost our forefathers.

It was us who bled.

We were the ones who lost our homes.

And they say our Independence was won by someone else?

Show me that.

What's the name of your party?

I don't have a party or anything.

I'm not fighting for a country or a religion.

I'm fighting for my helplessness and my misery.

This system wants me to be a mute spectator.

But I'm not going to be just a spectator.

My parents had come beaten and wounded from across the border.

Just to be beaten and wounded again?

We came to our own homes, our own country.

And what were they called as soon as they came?

Refugees. People who have come to take refuge.

Mother-f...!

We got them freedom! We left everything we had behind!

What have they ever done?

They kept signing Instruments of Accession.

Mr Khurana has been transferred.

Where?

Khalna.

It seems to be a temporary posting.

Maybe, it's for a year only.

Is one year too much?

Don't worry. You'll be a champion within a year.

And we will also have learnt a better understanding of his movements by then.

Paaji, he has a strong security entourage around him.

We'll see!

What has the security done until now?

There are always some unguarded moments. Everyone has an unguarded moment.

He'll surely have one too.

Let's go!

Country has not become "self-sufficient".

Yeah, some people have definitely become self-sufficient.

Electricity, water, houses, medicine, justice, education!

How many of these things are available to a common man.

60% of the population still live below poverty line.

And they are not only poor, they are ill-fated too.

It's been more than forty years since we got the Independence.

Almost half a century!

How long do they expect us to wait?

Is there anyone above "the chief"?

The one who is leading this movement?

Which movement?

This movement for... the country.. Er... for the religion.. What will you call it?

Listen, when there's injustice with someone...

...and continues for a long time.

- He can't fight alone. - [HORN BLARING]

He tries to find other people who have been wronged like him.

Someone from the same locality or the town...

...or someone belonging to the same caste or religion, or the country...

But his goal remains only to fight against that injustice.

You can check the history.

This has been happening and it will keep happening.

Then what is the law for?

Has any issue been resolved by these laws?!

Don't you hear of these "inquiry commissions"?

They take 10 to 20 years to inquire into an open and shut case.

[TRAIN RATTLES]

Are you trying to say this battle will never be over?

Well! It hasn't up to now!

I am not fighting for any "coming generation".

I want my own rights!

And I want them while I'm still alive.

In this lifetime! Right now!

[GUNSHOT]

Good.

[SONG]

Yes?

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

- Get 2 kg of Rajma too. - Yes, Sir.

And bring a basket too.

- Yes, bring that. - Yes, sister!

Sir didn't come along?

It's Sunday, normally on Sunday's he comes early in the morning.

He's come, he's buying vegetables.

And must be buying his meat.

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

Jai Hind, Sir.

Jai Hind.

Give it to me, Sir, let me help you.

No, that's alright.

I serve the country everyday, let me serve my own government today.

Okay, Sir.

- [GASPS] - [CLUCKING]

Hey, sssh!

So, is everything done?

Yeah, it's done.

- Namaste, Sir. - Namaste.

- How are you? - All good, thanks to you.

What's all this you bought?

Cauliflower, brinjal, fenugreek, carrots and these two lovely chickens.

They are pure vegetarian, they eat rice and lentils.

Are chickens ever vegetarians?

Don't you know?

They are, they really are.

Just like you and me they are vegetarian and non vegetarian.

Okay, you don't need to eat it.

Stop, stop.

But you'll make it for me, right?

Alright, give me your wallet.

Wallet... It's here, take it.

Hey, what are you doing? Help me with this.

So, how much do I have to pay?

You have to pay 217/...

Let's go.

That's 200 and...

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

Khuranna?

Did you find Jimmy?

- [GUNSHOT] - [SCREAMS]

[CLAMOURING]

[SCREAMING]

Bijji, what are you doing?

Where's your walking stick?

It fell behind your cot.

You should have called me.

I just picked up Pali's hockey stick instead.

It feels like he's holding my hand.

Here, hold this. Give that to me.

God knows where that rascal went.

He'll come back, Bijji.

Where are you going at this time in the night?

I will go to Gurudwara and pray.

I just want some peace, I'm suddenly missing Pali too much.

He'll come back, Bijji. Pali will come back.

Be careful.

[DEVOTIONAL SONG PLAYING IN BACKGROUNG]

Why is the police patrolling our lanes?

I've been seeing them for the past 4-5 days now.

They are in the whole village, Bijji.

I'd gone to see Pali's grandfather yesterday, it's the same even there.

May god protect us. You go inside, Veera is alone.

[PANTING] Paaji!

- Pali! - Pali?

Yes.

Pali's here?

[CRYING] Pali!

Where were you?

My friend.

My friend.

[CRYING]

My friend.

[CRYING]

Asshole! Where were you?

Where were you?

Pali, where have you been?

What are you up to?

We were so worried.

It troubled us so much.

We had such negative thoughts.

God knows what happened to you.

Where are you, man?

Jessi...

How.. How do I tell you.

Jessi, I've gone too far.

Jessi, I...

Jessi.. I.. I murdered Khuranna.

- The one who took you from here. - Yeah?

He had hit you with rods, hadn't he?

I couldn't bare it, Jessi. It was as if there was a fire inside me.

Has the fire extinguished now?

Veera, go get something for Palli.

Look at him, he's become so thin.

I'm not going.

I want to stay right here.

Jessi, I have crossed the limits.

And now I can't return.

I don't think I can.

Look Jessi...

Get Veera married.

Into a good family. I'll be indebted to you.

People at the Gurudwara said Pali's become a terrorist.

They have lost their minds, all of them.

They say the police is here for him.

If not for anybody else, he'll come at least to meet you.

I will ask him when he comes.

Bijji has returned from the Gurudwara.

I should get going.

Or all of you might get into trouble.

Pali, what have you done to yourself!

How do I take care of Bijji and Veera alone?

You won't do anything of that sort.

You have my swear.

Never leave them to go anywhere!

And you also have to look after my grandpa!

You are all he has now.

Where do you have to go? I'll drop you.

You won't leave this place.

Jassi, you'll have to explain it to Veera.

She is very stubborn!

- Won't you meet her? - No.

[DOG BARKING]

[DOG BARKING]

- Pali? - Veera?

What are you doing here?

Where are you going?

Why?

Can I not come with you?

I'll go to wherever you are going and marry you.

And it doesn't matter even if I didn't go through the wedding rituals.

Your accepting me as your bride is enough for me.

You can be my witness to our marriage.

Don't act crazy, Veera.

You know my fate, don't you?

I know.

I'm roaming with death on my head.

Are you scared?

Of death?

I'm scared.

Without you, alone.

I am afraid of dying all alone away from you, Veera!

But I am coming with you.

Take me along, Pali. Please!

Don't refuse.

I'll die with you, if I have to.

Don't make it difficult for me to go, Veera.

Otherwise, I'll die even before I get there.

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

Police!

[DOG BARKING]

KRIPAL: Sanatan?

Vazira?

[SONG]

[SONG]

[DEVOTIONAL SONG PLAYING IN BACKGROUND]

[HYMN]

Keep it inside.

- Namaste. - Stay blessed.

Come on, sit inside.

[HYMN]

We had to empty the farmhouse because we feared the police would reach there too.

All these days, you knew where I was?

But I didn't know where the police have reached.

The police is at the gurudwara.

They are right at your heels.

If you weren't in these clothes, you'd be caught by now.

But why is the police looking for me?

For Khuranna's murder.

How do they know it was me?

Don't go back to your village.

There's a lot of police there.

Remember Inspector Vohra?

Yeah.

Your village comes under his jurisdiction.

And Jaswant?

Vohra has once again taken him into custody.

I should go.

Bijji and Veera must be alone.

Don't worry about them, they are under my care.

And your grandfather is also with them.

And Jaswant?

Because of me the police will beat him to death.

What about you? You think they'll let you go?

What will they do? Kill me?

The police won't kill you.

Jeeta was not killed by the police, remember?

You leave Punjab and go to Himachal.

Where is Sanatan?

Don't ask addresses, son.

Nor should you remember any.

We don't write love letters.

You have to go to Himachal.

There's some work there.

A mission.

You will meet somebody at Manikaran.

- Nanoo! - Yes!

It's time to graze my sheep.

I'm leaving. It's stopped snowing, you should leave too.

Have Jaimal and the others left?

Vazira is still here!

- Nanoo Uncle? - Yes?

Where is my gun?

Jaimal Singh must have taken it.

You fell asleep outside itself.

Yeah, he probably took it.

If he tells Sanatan, I be doomed!

Sanatan must have reached the garage long back.

I'm going.

Come, let's go.

Namaste.

Yeah, namaste.

Here is the offering!

- You are coming from Gurudwara? - Yes sir!

Feed it to me.

Where were you'll the whole night?

Yesterday was Lohri (a festival). We'd gone to uncle Nanoo's.

I thought you too would join us there.

I was working here till late at night.

Is there any news from the commander?

About?

We are supposed to accomplish a mission here.

What is the mission that we were sent here for?

Right now, even I don't know.

There will be one more person.

He's an expert with missiles.

Where are the missiles?

They will arrive soon.

Sir?

I'm getting a job. At a school here.

Can I take it up?

[CLATTERS]

Have you gone mad?

Your photo has been published in every newspaper.

You are known as a dreaded terrorist now.

Nabbing you will get any police officer bravery awards.

These days police officers are getting promotions very fast.

How?

They kill anybody and present it as an "encounter."

And they have a huge file ready.

These encounters are never investigated properly.

Police officers take credit and get promotions.

The whole bloody system is fake and full of hypocrisy.

Sir.

If people don't have a say, why is it called a democracy?

Can't the people do anything about it?

The weak-hearted never bring about a revolution.

- Weak-hearted? - Weak-hearted!

Weak-hearted whimpering creatures.

The ones that can make or break a nation.

Just like when matchsticks get wet, you need to dry each to use it once.

Jata?

What is in this?

Milk.

Whose milk is it?

Baffalo's milk.

I don't mean to ask "which animal's?"

Who does it belong to?

It's for you, isn't it?

Yes.

Give me a glass of milk, bro!

The milk I was making tea with was spoilt.

No, the milk doesn't belong to me. It is somebody else's.

What is the harm in taking out one glass of it!

Replace it with a glass of water.

No...

[CLATTERS]

Why have you closed it by soldering it?

[FUMBLE] I have done that... because...

Open it! I want to see.

- Something's up! Call them immediately. - What's the bike's number?

It is registered in Punjab. PU 621.

[BRAKES SQUEAL]

[GUNSHOTS]

[EXPLOSION]

[WATER SPLASHES]

We have found some scraps of a missile.

He seems to be coming from Leh and going to Punjab.

Yes, the bike's registration no. Belonged to Punjab state.

Yes... We have taken the bike out of the river.

We couldn't tell if he drowned or floated away.

The search is still on!

And instead of coming here, I went towards Katahe.

You should have abandoned the bike on the street and hidden somewhere.

I.. I...

I was scared, Paaji.

As soon as I was shot, I thought I am gonna die.

When the bullet struck me, a lump of the flesh plopped out.

I was lucky not to lose my leg.

Everyone will sleep outside the house, away from each other.

You never know...

If they find a clue, they'll raid the house.

Should we shift the stuff to Nanoo's house?

It's dangerous to transport the goods all the way there.

Kripal, you take care of him...

I'll go check the area.

Paaji!

[LUTE PLAYING]

Paaji?

What happened?

Paaji, send me back.

Where?

Paaji, I wanna go to my village.

I'll go to Canada from there.

You fool! Is this a time to run away?

I'm really scared after the shooting.

All of this was thrilling earlier.

But, I had never faced death.

Paaji, please? Send me back.

Do you know you can be responsible for all our deaths?

No, Paaji.

My passpaort and Visa were ready before I...

Why didn't you go?

The had slapped down my turban while frisking me at the police station.

That's when I lost my mind.

'14 Hindus were taken out of the bus'.

'And were thrown on the street after being shot dead'.

I am not gonna be tricked by these bloody politicians.

Sikh groups didn't do it. It was staged by the government.

And the ones who stage such things have nothing to do with religion whatsoever.

They only care about votes.

They will keep dividing us and we'll keep getting divided.

The already imposed one partition on us, in the name of Hinduism and Islam.

Now, they want another partision of Hinduism and Sikhism?

How many more fragments do they want to make?

I have grown up with them, I'm a part of them, they are a part of me.

If they tear me apart, won't they suffer too?

My father, my grandfather and his father: all of them were married at Gurudwara.

My older brother, the first born son was a Sardar.

Then who am I?

Where is your elder brother now?

Where are your other family members?

Half of them were killed in 1947.

And the rest in 1984.

Namaste, Paaji.

Stay blessed.

My wound has healed.

Only a scar is left now.

May I go now?

I will drop you to Sundernagar tomorrow.

You'll get a cycle from Laghweera's shop.

Go to your village by the country side roads.

Good luck to you, my friend!

We're going to miss you a lot, buddy!

[SINGING]

[SINGING]

[SINGING]

What's up, bro? Who's returning home?

For whom are you singing this song.

Kuldip! He harassed us while he was here, even now he's harassing us.

I miss him, man.

By now, he's probably reached home.

Yeah.

I can hear him pressing the bell on his cycle, going towards the village.

The open breeze of the fields, carrying the aroma of mustard plants.

The yellow flowers on those plants; as delicate as butterflies.

[EXPLOSION]

COMMANDER: What time is it?

It's done.

Kedarnath's coming on 13th March.

Who is Kedarnath?

The one from the 1984 riots.

He was an MP now he's a minister.

Is he the same Kedarnath that Jimmy had attacked in Delhi and he survived?

He's coming to take pray at Manikaransahib after becoming Minister.

They are all phonies. They always have this act on.

He'll have to pass the bridge to get to Manikaran.

It's an ideal location to take care of him.

His car is probably bullet proof, so I've arranged for a missile.

And also a shooter.

When will this missile shooter come?

- He's here. - In the back of the truck?

I'll drop you both at Mandi, you take care of it from there.

Jaimal? Why you sitting here?

I've been watching you for a while now.

What's bothering you?

My mother loved snow.

She always used to talk about it.

I've been missing her so much since morning.

Why can't you go meet her?

I'll have to run away again.

She'll have to go through that pain all over again.

Why don't you tell me? Who had you killed?

In the riots of 1984, my grandfather...

...was tied up by his own turban cloth, and made to wear a flaming tyre...

...they killed him!

And my mother had locked me in the room.

Because I wanted to go save him.

The flowers are still kept with mom.

She still hasn't put them in the river.

After a while, when I started going to college.

I was in my first year.

My mother forced me to cut my hair.

In college, my Hindu friends were really sad about it.

They felt guilty, they'd even stop joking about Sikhs.

But my mother would come and sit by my bedside every night.

[CHANTING]

She'd stroke my hair and cry.

[CHANTING]

All night she'd sit there and recite verses from the Holy book.

But who did you kill?

Who did you murder?

There was an MP in our society.

I had seen him running away from the crowd.

Grandpa had called out to him for help.

But he, he went home and hid!

If he were there...

I would carry my grandpa's kripan (ceremonial sword) secretly in my books.

One day, in the lift, I stabbed him repeatedly with that dagger.

I threw my books and ran...

Are you talking about the MP Kedarnath?

Yeah.

But he...

You.. You're not Jimmy are you?

Yeah.

They called me Jimmy, back in Delhi.

What happened, Pali?

Nothing.

We never know what God intends for us.

It's snowing again.

Yeah, the weather's pretty unpredictable here.

[BLOWING]

- Namaste, Sir. - Namaste.

- Yeah? - Namaste, Paaji.

God bless you.

Did you drop Kuldip off?

He's reached.

Did you meet anybody else?

I met the commander.

When is our 6th man coming?

Now he is actually the Fifth Man, the Fifth Pandav.

Kuldip left.

When is this missile shooter coming?

He's here.

Sorry?

He's reached.

Where is he?

He's outside.

Virendra!

Yes?

Virendra?

Veera?

Are you Kripal's Veera?

[WHIMPERS]

[CRYING]

Where is Pali?

He's outside, he'll eat later.

Why not with us?

Shut up.

Bhabhi (sister in law), you should also eat.

You eat, Veer, I'll eat with him.

Enough.

- Veera? - Yeah?

Can I call you by that name?

Veera?

That's what everyone called me at home.

Elders, youngsters... Everyone.

You didn't tell me you're Veera.

Kripal's Veera.

I didn't know he was here.

I wasn't told.

They sent me directly here, from the training camp.

Now, consider this as your home.

By the way, you were not meant to live at a place like this.

Nothing we can do about it now.

You can consider them as your younger brothers-in-law.

I'm the elder of the house.

Take care of Kripal.

He's numb since evening.

Okay.

Eat your food.

Did you eat?

I'll eat.

Sit.

Eat with me.

Here.

Eat.

Start eating.

How's Bijji doing?

Bijji is no more.

Bijji?

What happened?

They took Jessi Paaji again.

You know about it, right?

Yeah, I got to know, but...

That's it. she couldn't handle it anymore.

Oh, Almighty! What wrong did we do to anybody!

That we were dragged into this hell.

Our home is ruined!

How is Jassi?

I know he's probably in a lot of pain.

Any news of him?

At least eat your food.

Has anyone gone to see him?

Have you gone to meet him?

What happened to him?

Why aren't you saying anything?

What? What happened to Jessi?

[WHIMPERS]

Why aren't you telling me!

What happened to Jassi?

[CLUNKS]

I'd gone once.

I had gone to meet him.

The police had tortured him a lot.

You couldn't see it on his face.

But, when he tried to get up, he collapsed.

He couldn't even stand properly.

He told me the police had tortured him in a way that gave him internal injuries.

Then I heard, he couldn't take it anymore.

[CRYING]

He killed himself by jumping into the well inside the jail.

[CRYING]

[WATER PLOPS]

What would I have done all alone?

You know what happens to women who are alone.

That Inspector.. Vohra?

He'd come by the house everyday.

He'd keep asking about you.

That was it!

One day, I sent Grandpa home...

I followed your footsteps here.

Pali!

- Pa... - What happened?

Tie this somewhere, I need to dry clothes.

Where can we tie it?

Let's tie it there.

Be careful.

Pull it.

Tightly. Hold this.

Veera? What's that black thread around your neck?

This?

Think of it as my Mangalsutra (a sacred necklace signifying marriage).

[COUGHS]

[COUGHS]

Vazire, you go sleep inside. I'll stand guard.

Hey...

Why did you come out here?

It felt awkward sleeping with so many men, didn't it?

Sleeping like that with you there was very awkward.

So you came out like this?

To sleep in the cold?

Here you go.

You've got a cold.

You too!

I caught it from you.

[CHUCKLES]

It's cold, isn't it?

Look at the smoke that comes out when you talk.

Let me see your mangalsutra.

Who have you married? Cyanide?

You little witch!

What did you think? I'll get married?

Even I'm married to this.

See this.

Is that jealousy?

Why would I be jealous?

Were hanging our deaths around our necks!

[LAUGHS]

Veera.

It was so much easier to die without you.

Now you have made it difficult by coming here.

Now, I crave to be able to live. Really!

- See. - What happened?

Come closer.

What are you doing?

- Did you get hurt? - Did you?

[SONG]

[SONG]

I have heated the water a little to be drinkable.

- Bhabhi? - Yes.

What's for breakfast, today?

There's halwa (sweet porridge).

You're very lucky.

Holiday from kitchen duty and now you get home cooked food.

- These vessels? - Keep them there, I'll wash them.

- Veera? - Yes.

Ever since you've come, I'm always worried about this place.

It was just the boys earlier, I wasn't worried then.

Don't worry about me.

I can take care of the house...

...and I can take care of the work that I've come here for.

Would you like to take a test?

The test will happen only on that day.

It's not too far.

It's going to be a matter of life and death.

God knows, how many of us will survive or die.

I will say my "goodbye" to everyone before leaving.

He speaks the language from across the border.

He'd gone across to be trained.

And there he got infatuated with a girl named Nafeesa.

Sir, what do you mean by 'infatuated', eh?

Oh.. I'm sorry.

Okay, let me rephrase that. He fell in Unconditional love with Ms. Nafeesa.

[CHUCKLES]

It's after all just the heart, it beats the same every where.

He keeps writing and singing love poems in her memory.

You're always pulling my leg.

Even you haven't forgotten your Gurnam Kaur, yet.

Shut up!

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

Where is Kripal?

He's gone to meet Nanoo.

Veera's alone. You stay at home.

Veer, it's okay. You shouldn't get angry.

It was a joke.

So who is this Nafeesa?

Bhabhi! even you started?

[CHUCKLES]

There shouldn't be any secrets amongst us.

Tell me. I could make you meet her.

She's there, Bhabhi.

Beyond the border.

Her voice was so sweet!

When she'd read the Quran, her voice would persuade me to become a Muslim.

So, why did you come back?

You could have stayed back.

How does the religion matter? And what's a bigger religion than love?

They beat me up, Bhabhi.

They'd kill me, but Nafeesa rescued me.

This...

See this. This is hers. She gave it to me.

Give, give that to me.

- No, I'll... - Come on, Veer.

Palli? What are you doing here?

I came to see you, Uncle.

Come, come along.

Your goats are very smart. You make the sound and they climbed the bridge.

They have been practicing a lot! They do so twice a day.

You tell me. How's Veera doing?

She's good.

We've come closer t death, but at least we are together. It feels good.

See, hadn't I told you, everything will be alright?

Now, just get married to her.

There will be a marriage.

If not to her then...

If not with her??

No, I was saying if not now then when?

Understood.

Come on.

What are you looking for?

I had this companion (amulet containing Cyanide) around my neck all the time.

God knows, where I lost it.

It's around my neck now.

What did you do?

When I'm here, why do you need another companion?

Give it.

- [WATER SPLASH] - [GASPS]

Sorry.

This just... fell over.

Veera?

Come on, let's get married.

We don't really have the band, but there are a lot of fire works.

We'll light some bombs.

Shall I talk to the astrologer tomorrow?

Yeah.

I've heard,

- If the girl is single, she goes to hell. - What?

She goes to hell.

I can't hear you.

She goes to hell if she's single.

[INDISTINCT CHATTERS]

See that mountain? We'll go right at the back of it.

Do you want to go?

But how will we go there?

That track comes from the other side of the mountain.

Come, let's go there.

That way goes towards Kullu.

We can go from there.

From that side.

Come on let's go to the car.

Tell Ramsingh to get the car ready.

There you go! Diaa... Dia...!

Let's go, Ramsingh.

- [IGNITION] - We'll be home tomorrow.

[GUN COCKS]

Senior Inspector from Chandigarh.

Yes, Sir.

Yes. Yes, everyone's safe.

As it is there is not so much danger here in the valley.

Yes, I've checked the whole security myself.

Yes.

Yes, of course. The Minister can come whenever he wants.

Absolutely.

Sir, I've sent Simi and my child to Dharamshala.

Yeah to see Dalai Lama's Monastery.

They'll receive his blessings if they happen to meet him.

The children should see that also.

It will also serve as atonement for the excesses that we commit.

Yeah, they play with pistols and rifles on usual days.

Their toys are also like that.

You are right, sir! They can't be blamed.

What else they can get to play with at the house of a police officer!

Yes.

Yes, Sir. If not for a gun in my hands there probably would be a pen.

Yes, sir! I have had a poetic disposition once upon a time...

...in college, I even had a pen name, Saahil.

[LAUGHS] Yes.

Who is happy firing these bullets?

One sin obliterates some good deeds as well.

Yes, Sir! I'll be there.

I will report to duty tomorrow itself, sir.

Get it up.

Yes, Sir.

There's a woman living with them.

He's given them the address.

He told them everything in a night's time.

He would never do that.

I swear to God he wouldn't do that.

He never would.

He knew I was there, how could he have told them?

You are in this with him, aren't you?

Vazeera, saw him go to the guest house where the Inspector is staying.

Open your mouth.

Open your mouth!

Tie her up.

[GRUNTS]

Jeeta did the same thing, exactly this.

Why didn't he eat the cyanide otherwise?

Why didn't he kill himself before he got caught?

I have my doubts with both of you.

And believe me, he won't reach prison.

Take her upstairs, I'll tell you what to do with her later.

Come on.

Come on, up.

Vazeere.

I've informed the commander.

Kripal will be taken care of.

If until 9 am tomorrow, you don't have any news, kill her.

You have to be on the bridge by 10 am.

Kedarnath's coming.

Kedarnath?

Yeah the same MP.

He was saved back then. Come, come with me.

May be she'll be able to tell us something.

May be we'll find out something about this group.

In the visiting room?

No, not in the visiting room.

I don't think Krupal Singh should be taken there in his current state.

Frisk her, make sure she doesn't have any weapon.

Let her see him in the cell itself.

INSPECTOR: Take her to birate number 2.

There will be guards outside and the cell door will remain open.

There will be guards, search her properly.
