ln history, tell me of one movement, where arms have not been taken up.

lt's lndia's non violent struggle that gave us an enslaved Kashmir.

True, wars have been waged with the pen, printing pamphlets...

...but they have not been Won.

And if we have won, then tell me which ones.

Majid...

...Al-jihad terrorist group. Al-Sami is their chief.

While you are firing - No regrets!

You shouldn't hesitate while hitting with the butt of your gun.

lf in doubt, you are dead.

The honor of your Regiment is in your hands. Dismissed!

You really have a good aim.

You'll enjoy leading them. How was the game, soldiers?

Very good, sir! - Good.

This is your Commander, Captain Aman. This is your platoon.

Our most accurate shot. He's got 34 kills!

He forms the last order! Kumble? - He's is in the hospital, Sir

So captain... soldiers. - Yes sir.

And Captain, steer clear of the locals.

So it seems we have an entire cricket team here!

Gurpal, it's been a week and absolutely no action!

lt takes a minute for everything to change and then it won't stop.

ls that so? - Yes sir...

Then it's only plastic bags To shit and piss in!

What happened, sir?

That's an informer, Sir. You can't trust anybody here.

Never know who else they are informing!

Let's go... come on.

Hey open the gate.

Fresh dreams of a fresh youth...

Dreams play out in front of me

Day in and day out Lets play our hearts out

Adaa... Open the door!

Hide it! Under the bed!

Hey open the door.

What's happening here? - Hair Oil! - Studying!

All at the same time! Did you go to school?

We got let off early. - They said there was a bomb there!

Adaa! - Gulzar? Get out of here!

What's this? Hmmmm...

So why the long face? - The Army has found him.

Hey bring Kaaba for him...

Mama, there's letter from the Chambu's

They want to see Adaa... - ls that so?

Where are you going? Sit beside me.

Gulzar, she is doing wonders with her hand work

lt's all God's grace.

That denim masterpiece isn't Too bad. Right, Adaa?

Won't it need a lot of time to be accepted here?

Not that long, Grandma.

28 days, and still no information about my son.

l hope that he's safe.

They don't even tell me if they have him in custody!

Javed Ahmed son of Sharif Ahmed!

Father... - Javed, .

My son, my son...

Please sign here...

We are letting him go because we know he was kidnapped and...

...forced to train in their camp. - Thank you sir.

Now his life is in your hands. - Yes thank you sir.

Next, your name?

This is our bunker.

Gurpal, can we get some tea? - Tea at this hour?

lt's hard to believe that most movies were filmed here.

lt's been a decade since a film crew dare to come here

Now these people aren't sacred of guns and bullets either.

They are speaking about Shammi Kapoor.

But who is this Shammi Kapoor? - He's an actor.

Hey let me sleep.

But why would he dance here?

How should l know about it? - Keep quiet.

Please tell us sister.

Hello? Can we get some tea? - Sir, not to the locals!

Look, we're from the Army lt's really cold here.

Sir! l'll arrange for it!

What's all this noise?!

Halt...

lf you want tea, tug on the rope once. lf not, tug it on twice.

And if you want to throw it, pull it thrice!

Sir, do check it properly. - l'll have to drink it to check it...

lf you've finished with the tea, pull once. lf not, pull twice.

And if you want more, keep pulling but you won't get any!

Let go... please!

l said let go of the rope!

You!

Sir, not the torch!

Turn off the torch!

Humph!

Some guts!

He's an Army man... said it was cold, so l made them some tea...

Why did he flash the torch? - l don't know!

Was there only one glass? - He drank the glass as well!

They are still here? - lt got late. Curfew had started.

Sir, you shouldn't use torch here, this is Kashmir.

l'll deal with him!!

Do it in the morning Grandma! - You keep quiet!

Sir, she's here! - Who?

Why did you flash your torch at Adaa?

Adaa? - Yes my granddaughter.

Her name is Adaa?

Good Lord! He knows her name! - You just told me, Ma'am!

Why did you do it? - She gave me tea.

l just wanted to see her face.

Do you have to look at every girl who gives you tea?

Her father's asleep or you would have a kettle down your throat!

What's this? - Uh... cigarettes.

Give me one!

Name? - Aman

Not yours, moron! The cigarette's? - Oh... Benson...

Ever had local tobacco? Give me another!

Just 2 left, Ma'am. Take the packet.

No torches anymore!

You're from that house?

How did you come out in the curfew?.

Our glass... Why did you keep it last night?

So l could see you again. - Are you out of your mind?

Since last night...

This is Kashmir! lt makes mice out of the biggest studs!

l was hoping for that! - Why did you give grandma cigarettes?

Yes! - Why?

You had given me tea. - Keep this, local tobacco.

How did you come about this?

l have ears too and l heard everything.

And don't you dare teach Grandma any more bad habits!

Come on Shree.

ls she your sister? - Do you have a problem?

Why does she giggle so much?

At least someone is smiling here. You don't like that either?

Come in...

l don't have any glass that belongs to you. Come in.

What a pretty smile! Do you have a name?

Won't you tell me? Won't you speak with me?

Shree is a Hindu. A few years ago terrorists attacked her...

...village and massacred her family. A bullet grazed her throat and...

...she lost her speech ever since. - And these people?

They adopted her despite being muslims.

Now they celebrate every festival for her.

And that girl takes her as her younger sister.

l am off duty now, sir...

...l won't speak in an army language.

Sir, just see what kind of a place is this & what kind of people stay here.

But sir, they to are crushed between their animosity

Today, at least there's some activity going around...

it's so colourful here.

No, no, show me that.

l don't know how it looks on me?

l want this jewellery only.

Hi...

Recognize me? - Uh... Yes...

Last night...

Yes... last night... - Tea...

Tea? Yes, he came to tea last night. - At night?

The local tobacco? - Yes, he came for some tobacco...

What are you blabbering, Adaa?

l mean he came to sell... to buy tobacco. From... Where?

l'm from Pune

Pune? He came all the way here to buy tobacco?!

Let's go to the jewellery shop. - That's where we are!

Right! Let's leave!

Who's he? - Don't know.

Looks like an Army man. - You do know what had happened to Rehana?

l'd better go. Greetings.

Hey...

Hey! Listen...

Me?

Why did you greet me in public!!

l'll greet you only in private then!

Do you know what happens here to a girl found talking to a soldier?

What happens? - She's either raped or her house...

...gets bombed! Understood? - So l'm to pretend l don't know...

...you, in public. - Why did You create such dolts?

Why hurt yourself for His mistake? - Your logic! l'm leaving.

Adaa!

At least don't call out my name so loud! Please!

Grandma, when will all this end?

All what?

All this violence, hatred and fear in the Valley.

Stop worrying about Kashmir! Just get married and go!

Where should l go?

Anywhere. But far away from here.

And look, l don't like that soldier!

Does he still flash his torch at you?

No!

What is it? - My officer has called your daughter.

Who? - Aman sir, who stays in the bunker opposite to your house.

The gall of the man! You're not going anywhere!

Not her. The little girl. ...and you along with her.

Gopal, this is your prescription.

Doctor, this is the girl, l was talking about.

Come in Shree... Come and sit here.

Come and sit here, dear.

Show me your throat child.

Just pass me the torch captain.

How long has she been unable to talk? - Two years.

Captain, it seems to be curable.

But l'll be able to diagnose it properly after some x-rays and tests.

l'll write it down, seeing the results...

...l'll be able to take any decisions.

Thank you very much doctor! - No problem Captain.

These are the prescriptions.

Will you come to Chandigarh?

l know someone at that Military Hospital.

The treatment won't cost much.

l'll get the living arrangements done.

We'll think about it.

Bye Shree... - Thank you!

Gurpal! Gurpal!

How's your torch doing? - Sorry?

How's your torch doing? - lt's not working.

Then how do you drink tea? - Gurpal makes it for me, Ma'am.

Hmmm... Get it fixed.

Hey it's my turn now. See didn't l tell you?

See l got it out, now it's your turn...

...let's see if you can get it out or not.

Yes l can do, like this.

Peace efforts in Kashmir suffered a huge setback when militants...

...killed 32 civilians in Kanhabal. The victims include 8 children.

lt's suspected that Al-Jihad's, Shakeel Ahmed is behind the attack.

Today you'll see the real Kashmir. 32 people have been killed.

lf we launch an aggressive enquiry Human Rights activists claim...

...'Military atrocities'.

lf we don't the death toll triples by tomorrow!

So, in all of this, only listen to your conscience.

Let's move Jawans.

Get down...

Round up everyone!

Did the militants come here? Tell me the truth!

l am telling you the truth...

They didn't stay at our house! They attacked the entire village!

Liar! You don't deserve to live! Did they come?

Everything is clear sir... - So go and search in the other places.

Come on tell me, they had come here?

Please sir!

This is enough, sir.

Do you know whom you are speaking to? - Yes sir.

This is against Army Rules, Sir! - So you'll teach me the rules, eh?

l'll report this, Sir!

You'll report me? - l'm sorry sir. But l will.

Move! Dismissed!

Get them some water! - Yes sir.

Greetings sir... - Greetings.

Majid, what happened to your face?

l kept quiet because of you, otherwise l would've had shot him.

But what happened? - He was bad mouthing us.

He said we should be grateful for...

...being allowed to enter here. That we're outsiders and should stay

...out of the Valley's affairs.

Where is he? - Here l am!

What's this?

'Terrorist Attack in Kanhabal'

Why was this done? - There were military informers there.

8 children? How were they military informers?

lnformers have no age. lt's been long since an attack occurred here.

We need to remind lndia that we're around. That's the way of war.

Our war is with the lndian Army. And it better stay that way.

We have new orders. There have to be three more attacks.

l didn't join you to take orders! Kashmir is mine and to restore my...

...people their rights, l don't need a hired mercenary like you!

Moin...

Can't we break away from them?

lt's not the right time, Moin, but it won't be long either.

lt's my daughter's wedding today. ls everything alright?

Of course, just routine duty.

Nothing to worry about. There's crowd here so we were just checking.

lt's very cold outside would you like some tea?

For my soldiers please! - l'll just get it for them.

Check upstairs too. - Sir.

Tea? - Give it to my soldiers.

Tea?

Did everyone else take it?

They have. This one is yours. - Can't see my name on it.

l'll write it, if you wish so.

This white... doesn't suit!

You were on duty in Kulgaon? How was the bride's father?

He's ok, Sir. A little sad seeing his daughter leave.

And the whole of village is mourning today. Thirty bullet injuries!

His corpse was found near the ditch.

lmpossible, Sir! l went off duty half an hour ago.

Here, dozens are killed in less than half an hour.

You can be Court-Martialled for this.

This occurred after my duty hours.

lt happened despite being on duty. lt's the same bloody Shakeel!

This point is 28 kms. From here.

l don't know if l will return alive from this mission.

lf l don't, then think of us

...as a beautiful dream that died. And if l do come back know that...

...this dream will a reality soon Read ahead carefully...

There are two entry points in this village.

One from the south and one from the north west.

We can enter from here, sir.

l will go, sir. - No.

Ready? - Yes, sir.

Surrender or we will open fire!

Who is he? - That's Al-Sami! The Al-Jihad Chief!

The Major has given us orders. Take no prisoners!

No! Hold your fire!

Hands behind your head!

'Allah-O-Akbar! '

'Al-Jihad Chief Al-Sami in Custody...

...4 soldiers die in Encounter'

This... news... - Soldiers live to die, Miss!

Please don't say that! - When l left home, l told my wife l...

...was on a one-way ticket to Kashmir! - Ya Allah!

Pray to Him... He answers everyone's prayers!

This... paper...

Did you get hurt?

One bullet... just grazed past me!

ln my remembrance, Think of me as the color of love

Tracing me with your fingers, Mark my fair body with my name Adaa

Sometimes the moon shines on us

At other times, the setting sun

Come along with me, Losing ourselves in the flowing river

Soon, a new dawn will arrive Enveloping...

...our Valley with a new spring

Sometimes the moon shines on us

At other times, the setting sun

Remember me as the fresh mist of a bright morning.

As the snow falls... etch my name as Goodwill

At times it is the fire nearby.

At times it is the warmth of the fire.

Sometimes the moon shines on us

At other times, the setting sun

Let the night not pass, as you are here.

Your smile ushers in my day

Your embrace mellows me to sleep

Keep me by your side until you make me yours forever

The sunshine will embrace us.

The colours will envelope us.

The sunshine will embrace us.

The colours will envelope us.

My memories consist of the colours of henna.

Etch my name with your finger.

Sometimes the moon shines on us

At other times, the setting sun

Sometimes the moon shines on us

At other times, the setting sun

Sometimes the moon shines on us

At other times, the setting sun

l'm Gulzar, Adaa's father.

Please come in. Have a sit.

l need not speak the reason of my arrival.

After all we have been through, the only thing we have is our dignity.

And you Army people don't have any regards for that! We know we're...

...a fear-stricken, destitute lot. And you are equally to blame as...

...the militants from across!

And don't think that our blood has turned water.

As a father, l have the right to slap you.

And by God, l will not repent it.

But as the father of...

...a Kashmiri girl, l have to bear the humiliation.

ls this how you protect us?

You are playing with our dignity.

Adaa's marriage has been arranged.

She will leave the Valley soon.

lf you have a sister at home...

...keep off your hands from Adaa for her sake.

Allow us to live peacefully.

Father...

Which way to the Army camp?

O Khwaja from Ajmer!

Show your grace on us!

You haven't been talking to Adaa.

She has caused me so much shame.

You lack the courage to hold your head high.

l've already lost my son! l don't want to lose my daughter.

Don't call me your mother.

You're making her so miserable!

What can l do?

Live by your convictions! We've spent half our lives in fear...

...and the rest awaiting death!

Our children are crushed with... our attitude...

Do you remember l had told you about a decent person? - Yes.

He is the same solider.

Read this He gave it to Adaa.

Read it carefully.

l know l'm a soldier here to protect your people and it's a...

...crime to victimize the people you protect. You are the woman...

...l want to spend the rest of my life with. Bringing my parents...

...l will ask for your hand in marriage. Without our family's...

...blessings, we can't realize our relationship.

With hope, Yours, Aman

What do l do now?. Tell me! - We could wait!

Wait for what? - For the situation to improve.

You still think they will improve? - Hope is what the world lives on.

There is a difference between Kashmir and the rest of the world.

There is no Kashmir in the world where hope doesn't live on...

This is reality not a dream.

With this reality we have forgotten how to dream.

Do you know what this will lead to?

Will you face the consequences?

lt would be better than what we are going through now.

What do you want me to do?

Stop looking for a groom for me.

l won't promise but l'll try.

Was l right? - What do you think?

l think l did.

Yes, you did.

Have we forgotten how to love? - l don't know but it sure has...

...been long since we did.

Go ahead. l will join you.

Help! Someone please help!

Adaa!

Adaa!

O Lord, be gracious to us!

Adaa! What happened?

Father, a blast!

An entire army truck... blown up!

Mother... bring some water.

That bomb blast... Shakeel... Shakeel carried it out!

Shakeel... my brother!

Allah won't forgive him!

l saw him... it was Shakeel

What should l say? Words fail me.

l can't forget that small child...

...holding whose finger l used to go to the market.

l am telling you the truth. We have nothing to do with him.

You have been saying this for the last four years.

l am not lying.

Did he not come to meet his sister even?

No.

Be prepared for a bad news this time.

Aman. - Sir.

Let's go. - Sir.

Bulletproof!

Back out.

Back out! Move.

This is a wrong position. Filled with the enemies.

Base calling patrol AH42. Acknowledge.

What steps are you taking to save the soldiers?

What is your answer?

Will Al-Sami be released?

We are discussing the issue with high officials...

...and shall act accordingly.

ln other news, Shakeel Ahmed of Al-Jihad has kidnapped 4 soldiers

of the lndian Army including platoon commander Captain Aman.

The hostages were taken during a raid conducted in Kupwara.

Although no demand has yet been made...

the terrorist's aim is to secure...

...the release of Al-Jihad chief, Al-Sami.

Here, have this water.

Where is Shakeel? - Tell Shakeel, l want to meet him.

Now tell me...

They could be in a 20 mile radius of Kupwara.

Call from Delhi sir!

Hello? Yes, sir.

We are conducting our search. Emergency meeting?

We can't afford to waste any time! My soldiers' lives are at stake!

Right sir, l will keep you informed.

Emergency meeting, huh?

lf this were a minister or a movie star, there would have

been a decision by now!

Proceed.

Where can l find Shakeel? - How would l know?.

Look it's very important! - l have no idea where he is.

l am Shakeel. Want to meet me? - l wanted to see you.

Why? - Curiosity. l wanted to see the...

man responsible for so much bloodshed in the Valley.

Your first posting here? No wonder you are so excited.

ln 24 hours you will be a corpse.

You think you'll solve a 55 year old problem in 24 hours?

lt would have been solved then, had your Government been trustworthy...

and its intentions honorable. - You talk like them across the border

l speak for the people of Kashmir!

The people of Kashmir want something else.

What? - Peace, harmony and security.

The lndian government will give my people 'peace, harmony and security'?

When they invaded Kashmir in 1947 it was the lndian government who...

came to your aid. - And bound us to Article 370!

Which means that Delhi retains all power over Defense, Finance and

Communications, while we believe we are 'free'? And you are talking

about peace? - Yes, l'm talking about peace!

Hold talks about your issues Why pick up arms?

Your government doesn't listen! - You're accusing the wrong side.

And which is the right one? - Ask yourself.

What are you saying? - Wait. Go out.

You were probably raised in some big city, where the stories about...

Kashmir are like fables. You came here from an unspoilt childhood

and exuberant youth, imagining your mere touch would heal Kashmir.

My father used to take me out, when l was a small child.

He used to narrate to me the various stories of this place.

My father used to say if there was paradise on earth, it is here!

l grew up listening to poetry, verses and soulful Sufi music.

l used to dream of making a film!

The Army crushed every dream.

Why DlD you come here??? What right do you have?

We have a right over you, over an integral part of our country.

Kashmir is not a part of your country. - Then whose is it- theirs?

No! Kashmir is only ours! You get out of here!

lf we leave they will invade you! - We'll deal with them! You leave!

You can't even handle a hired Afghani mercenary like Al-Sami,

You talk a lot!

Adaa!

Adaa? You?

Brother.

Adaa?

Shakeel, shoot the soldier!

No brother! - Shakeel, blow him up.

No brother. - What are you saying?

No brother. - Kill him. - Let me talk, at least.

Leave him, brother - Ready!

Brother!

Shakeel! - No not him.

l am talking.

Adaa!

Take them. Hurry up.

Solider, give some water.

Where is Captain Aman? Tell me?

Sir, Aman... Shakeel's sister... Shakeel

Come on...

She got the Army with her! - That's not true!

She's involved with that soldier. - lt's a co-incidence!

ls this corpse a co-incidence too? - lt's happened before!

But it's the first time a local has had...

...an affair with an lndian soldier!

lf we don't stop this... do you know what will happen...

...the impossible will become possible.

...people will begin to see hope...

...and lndia will use this to further encroach into Kashmir!

These bloody soldiers!

No sir...

The other three soldiers are seriously injured.

But we did find out something rather strange Sir.

Are you upset with me?

Any reason for me to be?

l didn't tell you that Shakeel was my brother.

Now you are giving me a reason to be upset.

Sir, this is the house...

...where that girls stays.

Where is your daughter? - She been missing since last night.

Do you know a Captain Aman? - Yes.

Why didn't you inform us about this? - l feared for my daughter.

Thank you, Let's go...

Listen, does it snow in Pune?

No.

Does it have maple trees? - No.

Do you hear gunfire there?

No.

lt must seem so strange. - What?

To live without gunfire.

Who do you have in your family?

My father, mother and my sister - she's two years younger.

Does she wear jeans?

Come and see for yourself!

What will happen to us?

Whatever we choose.

l've come too far.

l won't go back now.

l won't let you!

When Al-Sami was caught, Shakeel was with him, but managed to escape.

There's a link between Capt. Aman and Shakeel's sister-here is proof.

And this letter is the proof.

How did Aman manage to escape?

We've lost two soldiers and the other was badly injured.

He knew we'd arrive there so...

...why didn't he return to the hideout?

Sir, l think that there's some link between Aman and Shakeel.

Capt. Aman... search... hunt down...

...seal the area... capture him...

Report to me every half an hour.

Open the door!

Do you deny, that Shakeel's sister tried to rescue you?

Yes but she...

Say yes or no...

Yes, Sir.

You have had relations with her since your posting near her house?

'Relations' in the sense... - 'Relations' meaning you used to meet

...her while on duty, write to her and even invite her to your bunker.

Yes...

An enquiry has been instituted against Captain Aman.

They suspect him of having connections with Shakeel.

lf the enquiry goes against him then everything will be over.

l've come a long way. Please let me meet the Major!

l told you he isn't in! Keep quiet and wait.

Why should l sit... l have been waiting for the past two hours.

l know everything about this case but you won't let me meet him?

Move aside! The Major's coming!

Sir, please stop! These people were not letting me meet you!

Wait a minute. Go!

My name is Adaa, and l...

l know! - l have important information about...

...the enquiry against Capt. Aman. - Please take her back.

Sir, he's innocent! l want to file my statement!

Listen to me girl and listen carefully.

This is a Military enquiry, not a charade. Only the necessary people...

...are called. lf we need your statement, we will call you.

Please take her away.

He was with me all night and you won't even register my statement?

Your brother's a terrorist, isn't he? - We've nothing to do with him!

You aid and albeit those bastards behind our backs!

This is not true.

lt's the truth and listen...

lf l see you here ever again, l'll put your entire family behind bars!

Take her away...

Come on dear...

Come let's go home.

lt's no use standing here.

This is a Military affair, and nobody wants to get involved.

But he's innocent! l have proof!

lf you have proof, why don't you...

...talk directly to the Army?

They aren't listening to me, if you can...

...help me speak to the General.

l'm sorry, it's an Army enquiry. l can't do anything.

Capt. Aman, 2nd RR force, you are hereby detained...

...pending a court of enquiry regarding...

...your alleged links with the Al-Jihad group.

Where's the editor? - Over there.

Come... come...

l know of your case. This will need big political approach

Nothing is going to happen at our levels.

You can help me through the press. - We can't print anything we want.

ln these sensitive times, we have to watch our reputation!

How can helping a common girl affect your paper's reputation?

Tell that to the owners of the publication.

Yes sir...

And Shakeel? - l know nothing about him Sir!

Was it only Shakeel's sister with you that night...

...or was Shakeel there too?

These are false allegations, Sir!

You still haven't understood Kashmir.

You've really taken time to understand.

A relationship with an Army man, in today's Kashmir, is unacceptable.

lt will only ruin your name. - Being a woman, l was hoping...

...you would understand me better.

l can only advise you to forget this man and move on.

When you were on duty in Kulgaon?

He was killed after l got off duty.

lt took 20 minutes to reach Camp from the venue.

They perpetrated an attack in that much time?

That was a coincidence Sir.

Relationships and coincidences...

...why do they happen only with you?

Mr. Under-Secretary is out of town. You can meet him when he returns.

He's asked us to come and meet him today, now it's after three days?

lf these are the facts, then Capt. Aman is a suspect. Preside over...

...the court of inquiry and submit your report immediately.

Captain Aman, 2nd RR force, you are hereby charged...

...and Court Martialled for conspiring...

...with the militant organisation, Al-Jihad and...

...having links with Al-Qaida. The charges stand confirmed based on...

...the court of enquiry presided over by Major Rathore, 2nd RR force.

l have been coming since past three days.

l've fixed an appointment with the Minister at the Golf course

Exactly five minutes, come there at 4 'o' clock.

l have heard your case...

What's the problem? - The Army isn't taking my statement.

The Army doesn't brook interferences in it's enquiries.

But l'll help you.

Thank you sir... - But l have one condition...

...But you'll have to give a public statement that it was a coincidence...

...you were together that night and you have no relationship with him.

lt's a question of the Army's reputation.

l'll do it but will he be released after that?

This will ensure his release? - We'll try. But you have to promise...

...me that you will not have anything to do with him in future.

But, Sir - Learn to live in reality!

No, Sir.

l can't accept that.

'Write to the Prime Minister.' - Write to the Prime Minister?

Mr. Prime Minister, my respects... My name is Adaa...

...and l am a part of that Kashmir...

...which lndia considers its own.

...and l want to believe this allegation of lndia.

All l know is that to live with dignity in the Kashmir of today...

...one only needs integrity and love.

Please help this girl, far away from you.

l would be immensely grateful. l write the details below

Straight Questions: Questions of the common man...

...crushed by power politics.

Now we will be your voice and ask your questions directly to those...

...in the hot seats of power. On our show: 'Straight Questions'

Come on in...

Hello... - Hello!

How are you? - Yes l am fine...

Come in, come in...

Namrata, here's her file

Have a seat please.

Sign here, right here...

Thank you, get me Delhi

Have you read this carefully?

Do you know what you're doing? - Yes.

Ma'am phone from Delhi.

Hello, good afternoon sir.

Yes, Sir, it's about that Kashmiri girl's story.

Adaa, we'll record you tomorrow okay? - Yes.

Lights. - Role check okay... - Lights camera...

Greetings...

ln our next episode we bring you Adaa...

...who is an example of simplicity...

...love and sacrifice.

...the sister of Kashmiri militant...

...Shakeel Ahmed. ln love with Capt Aman...

...an officer of the lndian Army...

...Adaa wants to ask what crime she has committed.

ln strife-torn Kashmir...

...can this relationship be the promise of a new dawn?

Watch 'Straight Questions' tomorrow evening.

Where's the fax from that Kashmiri girl? - lt's filed, Sir

Bring it to my office.

l saw it. l'll find out Sir!

Give me Srinagar.

Yes Sir, the enquiry is still on

Where's that girl's statement? - Sir, l haven't taken it yet.

She's the prime witness in this case, and you don't have her statement?

What's wrong, Major?

Nothing, Sir!

l want to meet this girl myself.

You understand the significance of that show being aired?

lt's a ploy by the Army! - Your sister is involved!

She was trapped into it! - We are trapped far deeper!

We want Al-Sami. Alive.

ln the house of God? l can't.

No place here is off-limits for us! The telecast is tomorrow...

...and that is our deadline!

You won't go inside. Look after my family, especially Adaa.

Be careful...

Majid...

Hey catch them...

Get inside...

Come on, you go on the gate...

Hey go and stay there...

Take them in!

Get everyone seated!

Altaf! The back door!

Brother Shakeel, l am at the back door.

So, she wanted to give a statement but you didn't let her. When you...

...knew they could be attacked, why didn't they have any security?

Why?

Was this a personal vendetta, Major?

l'm ordering an enquiry against you.

And believe me... l'll take a premature retirement.

lf l don't reach to the bottom of this case.

And if you have done something wrong then l advise you to...

...start looking for a job outside the forces.

'l, Shakeel Ahmed, take responsibility for this attack.

l'm holding 55 hostages.

lf the lndian Government wants their release, it shall have...

...to agree to our demands. Our first demand is... '

One by one please...

This girl's interview has created such a furore, that their first

...demand is to stop its telecast? - Perhaps!

So will this telecast be stopped?

We have asked them to stop the show, but they are a private channel.

Sir, we have heard that this is...

...imprisoned Al-Sami's master minded this attack?

Sorry, no comments.

Will Al-Sami be released, as per their next demand?

There are meetings on in Delhi.

The moment the decision

What are your comments on their unusual 3rd demand?

'... curfew timings have been extended... '

United Nations has criticized this action...

...and have asked the government to take action.

'Their third demand is that...

...they will only negotiate with Captain Aman...

...or else one hostage will be killed every hour.'

You can refuse, Captain.

l cannot pressurize you in this situation.

He wants you inside the mosque, alone.

Everyone know what will really happen in there.

He wants to negotiate only with you.

And we doubt his intention regarding this negotiation.

You know he is capable of anything!

l'll go in, Sir - Don't make an emotional decision.

A soldier has the right to emotions

And in any case, this is not an emotional decision.

lt's a tactful one.

Our crack force needs time to prepare.

We have to spend the time anyhow.

Hurry up l don't want to lose the satellite time.

Hello, Adaa.

How are you?

l'm alright.

We've come to take you for the recording.

She's Adaa. - ls she the same one? - She's going for the recording.

Get me the head quarters...

And everyone stay in your position.

Check it, the voice should be clear. - And sir the other thing?

Do you think your plan will work?

They are terrorists captain...

They aren't swayed by sentiment.

A terrorist has as much sentiment as a soldier.

He has a cause to fight for.

My duty is to prevent it.

The just cause will win.

Just consider, what l have said.

Take care, Captain! - Thank you.

Hands up in the air.

He's here!

He's gone in alone? - Yes.

You can cancel the interview.

Maybe they would show him some mercy?

He doesn't need anyone's mercy.

We need you, Shakeel.

Come back. Please...

Keep him quiet!

l said, keep him quiet!

Forgive us son...

...we were misguided...

...but we found our way back home before darkness fell.

...Whereas, he is waiting for a new day to dawn...

...not knowing that by then it will be too late.

Why don't you carry out a crack operation...

Crack operation won't reap miracle, sir!

We need time more Sir.

There are children inside. Rushing in is too risky.

But l cannot understand your planning.

One of our brave soldier has gone in alone according to our plan.

An emergency meeting on the issue of the Al-Jihad Chief, Al-Sami's...

...release, is underway. lt remains to be seen what steps are taken...

...to ensure the safe release of the hostages in the mosque.

We need a decision on Al-Sami, Sir!

lt's not easy to take a decision about Al-Sami.

He's a dreaded terrorist.

We need time.

l can't seem to make you understand one thing sir and that is...

...we don't have time, Sir!

The Chief is here!

Sir, we don't have time, sir.

Shakeel!

My friend, my partner...

...how can, l thank you!

lt's like a black spot on the government...

They won't be able to forget this setback.

ls everything ready? Good...

Altaf...

Connect me to Majid! And get ready to get out of here.

Majid! - Greetings Sultan! - Greetings.

We are waiting for you at the border!

We'll be there soon! Over!

They're coming out!

All alert...

Take a few of them for cover. We will release them later.

Don't you have the courage to lead the way out, Al-Sami?

Oh, so you're here, too! - So you recognize me.

How could l forget you!

Because l'm the reason you're alive...

Because a lone lndian soldier could not change the course of history...

...in this Valley, and failed in his mission here.

The course of history will change with one innocent girl's voice...

...the same girl whose house you blew up!

What? Mother...

That voice reverberates through the Valley...

...forcing you to hear her.

Open your heart and realize that it's time for change.

My name is Adaa and l am the sister...

...of Al-Jihad terrorist, Ahmed Shakeel.

l take great pride to announce that l am in love with Captain Aman...

...a faithful officer of the lndian Army and a beacon of humanity.

l have been accused, that l have fallen in love with an Army man.

He's been accused for loving me.

We both have been accused of falling in love...

...and in ravage torn Kashmir...

...it is Love that is considered the most heinous crime.

l imagined l would come here full of angry words! But now l'm lost.

How can l remain angry with an Army that has given me a man like Aman?

Can l curse a Government l haven't met?

Can l rant about all our brothers...

...who left us their parents and sisters...

...never to come back.

However, l haven't lost my fortitude.

ln fact, my struggle has just begun.

Capt Aman was with me that night, as he shall remain with me forever...

...because we are soul mates!

Together, we will see a new Kashmir where love will not be a crime.

Boats shall set sail again and melody ring through the air.

And every sister shall see her brother's smiling face besides her.

l don't know in what condition you are, Aman?

But wherever you are, think that l am nearby.

l wish l could tell you in mere words my relation with you.

And to all our brothers far away, l plead - please come back.

Everyone's waiting for you at home.

Father has carefully guarded your Eid gifts over the years.

Family gatherings are incomplete without you.

And mama still cries silently, through the night!

Please come home!!

The Lord keep you safe...

Shakeel!! We don't have time!

Shakeel...

Snipers in position!

Altaf, start the vehicle!

Father!

Everybody come out!

Drop your weapons!

Everybody come out.

Hands above your head!

The mosque is under control! Thank you Sir!
