One early morning.

Lifting the dark
misty veil of the night.

From the pillow of its mountain
peak, the sun rose and saw..

The valley is filled
with the season of love.

And the branches of
memories have sprouted..

..innumerable
blossoms of past moments.

Unspoken, unheard yearnings.

Half asleep, half awake.
Rubbing its eyes, it watches.

As it flows in wave after wave..

At once new, also the same.

Yes, the very same life which
encompasses love and desire.

Meeting and also parting.
And a sense..

..that time is flowing like a river,
whispering as it flows..

..that the valley is
filled with the season of love.

And the branches of
memories have sprouted..

..innumerable blossoms
of the past moments.

"Why is the wind singing today"

"Why is the wind singing?"

"Why is the season raining colours?"

"My heart wonders what
is going to happen today."

"Why is there moonlight in the day?"

"Which way is life moving?"

"My heart wonders what
these events foretell."

"Why is the wind singing today?"

"Whose face am l
seeing in every flower?"

"Whose face do
l see in every flower?"

"Whose unheard voice
is in my ears?"

"Whose are these sounds.."

"..vibrating in my dreams?"

"My heart wonders
whose arrival is awaited."

"Why is the wind singing.."

Singing, singing.."

'Oh, Allah.'

Today, your dream is
coming true, Papa.

Today, your daughter
begins her first case.

You devoted your entire life
for truth and human rights.

Today, l am taking my first
step into the same battlefield.

As always, l'm taking your
faith and blessings with me.

Karim Khan, do you know
how to cook?

No, sir, the wife cooks.

Better start learning.

Now, women have started
doing men's jobs. Never know..

..when you'll have to
sleep on an empty stomach.

Now, may l meet the lndian prisoner?

Most certainly. Now, you
haνe the right to, Madam Lawyer.

Come, l'll escort you myself.

That way l'll get to spend a
little more time with you.

Shall we?

Excuse me, madam, but
you're wasting your time.

This man is here since 22 years,
but no one's heard him..

..utter a single word.

We think he is νery happy here,
neνer fights, never complains..

..seems like he doesn't
want to be free at all.

Freedom is every
man's birthright and..

..it's my duty to see
that he gets it.

You do your duty and
let me do mine.

Hey, 786. Look who's
come to meet you.

You imbecile, Madam Lawyer
is here, at least greet her.

The State of Pakistan has
decided to reopen cases..

..of some lndian prisoners.

So, find your lost voice
quickly and start babbling.

This opportunity won't come again.

What did l tell you?
- Open the cell.

l want to speak to him in private.

Well, you've signed the papers,
what do l care?

Karim Khan, keep an eye on her.

l've done my duty, now
it's up to you and..

..your God.

Let's begin with names.

l'm Saamiya Siddique and you are..

Do you want me to call
you 786 like the others do?

Your name can't be so unpleasant
that you prefer a number to it?

Veer Pratap Singh.

lt's ages since you've
heard your name, isn't it?

Please talk to me, Veer Pratap
Singh. l've come to help you.

22 years ago you remained silent.
And no one could defend you.

Today, God is giving you
another chance. Talk to me..

..and l promise to get
you back to your country.

Please talk to me. Please.

l don't know why you
don't want your freedom.

But l want you to know why..

..your freedom is important for me
and other girls of this country.

My father fought his entire life
for women's empowerment in Pakistan.

But he could not do as
much as he wanted to.

Today, after years of hard work,
l have earned my first case.

But everyone knows it's
impossible to win this case.

They want me to lose..

..so that no woman will tread
into this male domain again.

But l'm not going to lose.

l will not let down my father's
dream. Or the women of my country.

l just need your help. Talk to me..

Please talk to me.

Talk to me, Veer Pratap Singh.

That's an F 1 6 flying
at the speed of 1 200mph.

When a plane tears through the
skies, plays with the clouds..

..no one but a pilot can
understand that feeling.

l can still feel
my hands throbbing..

..the blood rushing
and the winds lashing..

..when l would take my helicopter..

..into the mountains.

Ahead.. left..

Help. Help, help please.

Let's go get them.

Help.

This was me and this was my life.

Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh.

A rescue pilot with
the lndian Air Force.

l loved my work.

Flying was a childhood fantasy.
And saνing people's lives..

..was my father's legacy.
He was an army officer..

..who gaνe his life for the country.

l was alone and free.

And l lived every moment
as if it were the last.

Little did l know
that three days later..

..my life was going to
change because of a girl.

A girl who was then
sound asleep in Pakistan.

Wake up, Zaara. lt's seven o'clock.

Seven. l've never
woken up this early..

Whatever has not happened till now..

..will begin from today. Your
marriage got fixed yesterday.

Now, you're just a
guest here for some time.

Soon, you'll have to go
to your husband's house.

Your mother wants you
to change your habits.

Wake up every morning at seven,
make your own bed.

Then learn cooking
from uncle lqbal..

l'm not going to change
for anyone.

l am who l am, tell them that.

Oh, your cool
attitude won't work anymore.

You're lucky they've chosen
you because of your beauty.

l hope your manners
won't turn them away.

Or you'll be a spinster for life.

"l am the way l am
and l will always be."

"Whether someone is happy,
or even if they are unhappy."

"l will neνer change my style."

"Whether they understand or
they don't, l will keep saying."

"l am the way l am
and l will always be."

"l am the princess of my
feelings and the queen of my mind."

"Why should l wear a veil?
lf the scarf drops, let it."

"Whether they smile or they pout.."

"lt does not bother me if
what l say causes a rift."

"l am the way l am
and l will always be."

"l have no desire to
adorn my palms with henna."

"Or to hear the wedding flute play."

"l have no desire to
adorn my palms with henna."

"Or to hear the wedding flute play."

"l am quite happy in
my own home, thank you."

"lf you can hear me, oh priest,
let me clarify."

"l don't know that l will
ever agree to marriage."

"l am the way l am
and l will always be."

"Whether anybody's happy or upset.."

".. l won't change myself."

"People might agree or they
might not, l won't budge."

"l am the way l am
and l will always be."

Dr. Yusuf, is everything all right?

Just pray. Now, there's no
time to take her to the hospital.

She's repeatedly asking for Zaara.

Yusuf, l'm Zaara's mother but it's
Bebe (grandma) who brought her up.

Where is Zaara?

She's gone to the temple
to get holy water for Bebe.

l'll break this news to Zaara,
no one will say anything to her.

Zaara, is that you?

Yes, Bebe, your Zaara has come and..

..look what she's got for you.

The priest sent special holy water
for you and.. - l know, little one.

No holy water will help me now.
- Bebe..

Since you were a child, you
haνe been chattering non stop.

And l have been listening. Today,
l'm going to speak.

And you'll listen.

You know that l've been here ever
since the inception of Pakistan.

l was 1 6-years-old when
your grandfather left lndia..

..and he came to Pakistan and
he brought me along with him.

Your family, this
country has given me lots..

..and l took it all
with all my heart.

But today, l've this one
last wish.. will you fulfil it?

lmmerse my ashes in my lndia, dear.

l may be an orphan, but l am an
lndian. That's my only identity.

l told you about Kiritpur,
haνen't l? For us Sikhs..

..it's a very important pilgrimage.

All my ancestors are there.

Just immerse me there.
l will get my refuge.

You'll do this for me?

No.

There's going to be no
need to do any such thing.

All our visas to go
to Delhi are ready.

You just get well soon. Then
we'll both go to your Kiritpur.

And you can pray there
to your heart's content.

Now, drink this holy water quickly.

Bebe..

She was here in
Pakistan and you in lndia.

Then how and when did
the two of you meet?

Three.. three days later..

..and what an unusual
meeting it was.

Hurry up. Hurry up.

A bus had toppled
over in the mountains.

There were no serious casualties.
All passengers were rescued.

And l was on my way down
to bring the last girl up.

Pull us up.

lt wasn't that l'd never seen
a more beautiful girl than her.

But l don't know why l
couldn't take my eyes off her.

Her eyes were lowered and
she was breathing heavily.

She was very scared.

A strand of hair was
bothering her right eye.

She was trying to move it,
but the wind was strong and..

..the hair stayed there.

As l lifted my hand from
her waist to move the hair..

..she looked at me in fear.

We looked at each
other for the first time.

She kept staring at me scared.

Then she lowered her gaze, but..

l kept staring at her and
then my dream was broken.

Stop.. stop.. stop

Ranjit. Stop.

What happened?

What happened?
- My bag has fallen down.

Please take me down.
- lt's only a bag, ma'am. Let it go.

l can't let it go. That
bag is very inνaluable to me.

Not more valuable than all
our lives, right? - Yes, it is.

Now, will you please take me
down or should l go myself? - Down.

My bag.

Stop it.

Ranjit, take it down.
- Veer, have you gone mad?

Do as l say. Take us down.

Here.

Ranjit, pull us up.

You endangered the liνes of so
many people for a little bag.

What kind of a person are you?

You know we risk our lives
everyday to save liνes..

..of people who are
complete strangers..

..who aren't related to us
in any way.

Yet on our way home, our
hearts swell with pride..

..that we saved someone's sister,
wife, brother or mother.

Gave someone a new life.

But today, for the first
time in so many years..

..l'm doubting my work.

For the first time,
sacrificing my life..

..for someone else
is seeming worthless.

lt's seeming wrong.

l'm sorry, ma'am,
but it was disgusting.

Get out. l don't
want to see your face.

Who asked you to
give Zaara your money?

You know l can't say no to Zaara.

Even if l did, she
would've taken it forcibly.

And she's not off to the market
to buy bangles, but to lndia.

Wasn't it important
enough to tell me?

She made me pledge our friendship.

Pledge of friendship.
There's a limit to childishness.

Who got her onto the bus?
Call Akram.

Call him immediately.
How irresponsible!

Zaara.. Zaara, are you all right?
- Zaara..

Mother, l'm perfectly all right,
please don't worry.

What is this nonsense, Zaara?
Do you know what l'm going through?

Only when l was going to the police
that this idiot Shabbo told me.

Just come back home right away.
Come home immediately.

Mother, the border closes at 4.30..

..and l haven't even
reached Kiritpur yet.

God, for what sin am
l being punished?

Now, it's about to be evening.

Why did you go alone?

l promised you that
l would send the ashes to lndia.

l also promised Bebe that
l would take her ashes myself.

Zaara, is this a little
trip from Lahore to Pindi..

..that you just took off like that?

Have you gone mad?

l'm really sorry, Mother.

But after all my explaining, you
were still unable to understand me.

Until now, l've done nothing
really important in my life, Mother.

Nor will l be doing
anything great in the future.

My life, like yours, will be spent
being a good wife and a good mother.

But after doing this, l will
always be proud of myself.

That l helped
someone attain salvation.

Mother, now that l've come so far..

..l will return only
after completing my work.

But if you stay angry with me,
then my journey will get bad luck..

Stop it. Can a mother ever
wish bad luck for her daughter?

l've been crying since eight hours,
you want me to cry some more?

Relax, Mother. l'm cool.

Yes, you're the only one
who's cool and we're all fools.

lf your father returns
before you do, then..

Don't worry, Mother.

Papa will only be back next week,
and l'm coming back tomorrow.

Please.

Mother, l've to hang up now.
There's a long queue.

Listen, take care of yourself,
and don't eat any junk.

And don't talk to any strangers
and keep calling me.. right?

And don't be scared, my
blessings are with you. Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Yes, how much?

Why are you worrying?

Our Zaara is no less than any boy.
She can get her way anywhere.

Thank God that she's safe, this
girl scared the life out of me.

Why are you talking to me? l
told you to get out of my sight.

You say that all the time.
Now, cool it.

Cool it, my foot! You fool.

Go do your work. What are you
standing like statues for? Go..

Ranjit, permission for my
leave has come from the base.

Mom and dad had asked me to come
home to celebrate Lodi (festival).

l'll leave from here in the morning,
that way l'll reach sooner.

Negi will accompany you back.

Okay, see you on Monday. Enjoy..
- Thank you. Here are the logs..

Mister, are there any
buses to Kiritpur from here?

No, Ma'am, no buses
leaving right now.

There's one for Kiritpur at 7am.

ls there a hotel where
l can spend the night?

Hotel. Of course. Look there's
Kake's inn. Our five-star hotel.

For Rs. 1 0, you'll get a blanket.

You'll get a cot for Rs.25.

Okay, ma'am. Please excuse me,
l'm getting late. Goodnight

"Love is God's blessing,
don't turn away from it.

The ascent of moon doesn't stop."

"Why hide it?"

"Love can never be hidden, Jaggiya."

You risk your life to
save the liνes of strangers.

There can't be nobler
work than that.

l would not like you to stop taking
pride in your work because of me.

That's why l've come to tell
you the reason for my behaviour.

These are the ashes of my Bebe.

She was an lndian..

..who spent her whole life in
Pakistan serving my family..

..and never asked
for anything in return.

Just one dying wish..

..that her ashes be immersed along
with her ancestors in Kiritpur.

This is more
important to me than my life.

Perhaps, you were not
happy saving my life.

But l am sure you'll be proud that..

..you saved this urn
that was in my bag.

Please try to forgive me.

l'm sorry.

Sir, here's your buttermilk.
- Thanks.

lf only l'd drunk it in the morning,
l wouldn't have lost my temper then.

Here's the bus.

One by one. Who has tickets?

l've got a ticket..
- Ladies first. No pushing.

Easy..

Easy.. easy. No crowding.

That's it. No more.
- But l've got a ticket.

Madam, everyone has a ticket but
here it's first-come-first-sit.

So, where do l go then?
- Go up there..

Hey, baldy, move oνer there.
- Why should l moνe?

ls my wife your sister that..

..you want to sit beside
her for the entire journey?

Shove, before l break your teeth.
- Sir, l was just moving.

You must be wondering
what am l doing here.

Can you see that bus over there?

Actually l should've
been on that bus.

l had boarded it. But l
noticed you and l saw..

..how graciously you
took this wonderful seat.

l thought to myself either
you are extremely brave or..

..extremely foolish to do this
long journey all by yourself.

Then l realised that..

..although l'll reach my village,
l'll be bothered..

..throughout my journey..

..and probably for my
entire life whether..

..that silly Pakistani girl reached
her destination safe and sound.

So, please don't think
that l've come to help you.

l'm simply ensuring your
thoughts don't bother me..

..for the rest of my life.

Thank you.

Would you like to eat some nuts?

By the way, l'm Squadron
Leader Veer Pratap Singh.

l'm Zaara. Zaara Hayaat Khan.

"Below the blue skies."

"The earth is prospering."

"Every season is joyful."

"Oh, my beautiful land."

"My land. My land."

"Oh, my beautiful land."

"My land. My land."

"The earth is golden,
the skies are blue."

"And every season is colourful."

"This is my land."

"The sparrow hawk calls
and the nightingale sings."

"And the monsoon clouds arrive.
This is my land."

"This is my land."

"A crow is calling on my terrace."

"A letter from my
beloved will arrive."

"And there'll surely
be a mention of me."

"When the wind moves like a comb
through the fields of wheat.."

"lt lifts a hundred
colourful scarves."

"When the water carriers come to
the well to fill their pots.."

"Someone entrances them with
the sweet sound of his flute."

"And so at every step.."

"And so at every step, a
new love story is born."

"This is my land."

"My Jugni is very choosy.
She favours the ones in love.

My dear this is what Jugni says.
She takes the name of Lord."

"You've made me happy, dear!"

"Where children, carried
upon their father's shoulders.."

"..are taken to see the fair.
And treated to comic shows."

"And ice-cream and snacks."

"And to candy and savouries."

"These innocent
children as dear as dolls."

"Are entertained by their
grandmothers with fairy tales."

"This is my land."

"Hurry up, dear."

"A throne pricked
your beloved's feet."

"Dear, a throne
pricked your beloved's feet."

"Who will be the one to remove it?"

"Who will endure the
pain of your beloved?"

"Dear who will endure
the pain of your beloved?"

"ln my country, a
guest is revered as God."

"And no matter what
land he comes from..

..he becomes a part of this land."

"l have seen and
understood your country."

"l don't know why it
all seems familiar."

"These evenings are
familiar as are these mornings."

"Such is also my country.
Same as your land."

"Same as your land."

"This is my land,
same as your land."

"This is my land."

What are these people doing?

These are the last rites.

lt is done before the ashes
are immersed in the river.

So, why aren't we doing it?
- We aren't doing it because..

..you are a Muslim. And
this is a temple of the Sikhs.

And it's in our interest to
quietly immerse the ashes and..

..leave from here.

No, l want to immerse the
ashes with the complete rituals.

No, no, Zaara. lt's like this..
some priests are fanatics.

So, you'll get insulted and
l'll get beaten up unnecessarily.

Should l go and ask?
- No, no, you don't ask.

Wait here. l'll ask.
You sit right here.. please.

Dear God, it's all
in your blessings.

l'd told you about Kiritpur, right?
Just immerse me there.

l'll get refuge.

ls your name Zaara?

Yes.

You've come from Pakistan? Yes..

l've been in this
temple since 42 years.

But l have never seen
such devotion.

You've done more than
a real daughter would.

lt would be an honour for me to
do the last rites for your Bebe.

Come, dear, come with me. Come..

Dear God, it's all
in your blessings.

Come here, please.

Now what?

Put your hand out and
fulfil Bebe's last wish with me.

But how can l..

Look here, neither l, nor
you are Bebe's children. But..

lf it weren't for you l
wouldn't have been able to get..

..Bebe here so easily.

Like me, now, you too have
formed a bond with Bebe.

So, the right..

..to perform this final rite
is not just mine, but yours too.

Come.

Zaara, here's your bus ticket.
You'll reach Atari. And from there..

..catch a train straight to Lahore.
And here's your change.

Have you finished eating?

Anything else?
- No, thanks.

You've already done a lot for me.
l don't know how to thank you.

l'm very frank about
these things. lf you ask me.

l'll tell you what l really want.
- Tell me what l can do for you?

Be careful, l will ask, but
you will not be able to give it.

You don't know what you've done
for me. Ask for anything you want.

lt's a promise that l'll fulfil it.

You are making a promise
without knowing the price.

You might regret it.

A Pakistani has made a
promise to an lndian.

Now, my country's honour
is at stake.

Now, even if l want to,
l can't back off.

Please tell me what
can l do for you?

Give me this one day
from your life..

What?

You drew me close into your life.

You created a bond
between me and your Bebe.

You're leaving me with a
lifetime of sweet memories.

l want to share my world with you.
l too wish to give you memories..

..that stay with you for
the rest of your life.

l know a day is very precious
to you. But l promise that..

..you'll never forget this day.

l warned you that you'd
regret making this promise.

So, you fell in love with her?

What l felt..

l still can't understand.

Why l asked her for a day, l
don't know.. l just asked her.

But yes, at that time, l did
feel that our acquaintance..

..was not destined to
end right here.

We hadn't met just to
come till here.

Our relationship was
still incomplete.

There was still
something more to happen.

With this thought, the
words blurted out of my mouth..

..and that poor girl
listened to me silently.

Did she come with you?

Saamiya, the honour of
your Pakistan was at stake.

How could she not come?

Why have you made that
strange face?

Your mother scolded
you on the phone?

l'm scared of heights.
- Why didn't you tell me earlier?

You said this is a shorter route.

The other way would
take half a day more..

So, what could l do?
- Does that mean..

..you'll wear this scary
expression for the entire journey?

Please smile a little,
or l'll get scared too.

Okay, listen, eat some nuts.
lt'll take your mind off this.

Hold out your hand..
- No..

Okay, open your mouth.

More?

Brother Veer has come. And
there's a girl with him.

Hey, Pappu's mother,
look, our Veer has come.

And he has brought
his fiancee with him.

Oh, a girl won't come just
like that with her fiance.

Veeru must have married her,
she must be his wife.

Maati.. Maati..

Maati.

Maati.. Maati..

Oh, what happened? Who died now?

Maati, Veeru's here.

Veeru?
- Yes

And he's got his wife along
with him. - What rubbish!

My Veeru will never get
married without informing me.

l'm telling the truth, Maati.

The whole village has
come out to see them..

What the hell! Let him come.
l'm not going to talk to him.

Oh, Chaudhary Sumer Singh, where the
hell are you? Where's he gone now?

Come on.

Oh, Chaudhary Sumer Singh.

Father, Maati's calling you.
- Yes, right. l heard her..

She always calls me
at the wrong time.

Come here, son. l'll
tell you something.

Don't ever make the mistake of
getting married. lf you do..

..you won't be able to score a goal..

..for the rest of your life. - All
right, sir. - Chaudhary Sumer Singh.

l'm coming.

Oh, my dear one, how many
times do l have to tell you..

..not to disturb me during a game.
- And how many times do l tell you..

..if you want to die then lie
down on a bed and die. Don't play..

..with kids old enough
to be your grandchildren..

..and get your bones broken.

Let me tell you one thing.
ln this entire village..

..there's not a single player
who can compete with Sumer Singh.

Except your son, look
what he's been up to.

Veeru's come? Where?
- But not alone. He's got married.

What are you saying?
- Look there.

Hello, Uncle.

Hey, listen. Go there.

How're you, Kamli?
- Fine.

l'll say hi to father.
Your blessings, father.

You idiot! Without asking or
telling us, you got married?

l'll thrash you.
- Married? Who told you that?

Then who's she? My wife?
- No, no.

Your wife is right here.
- l'll hit you.

Then who's she?
- You're too much, Maati.

ls there only one kind
of relationship between..

..a man and a woman?

Bless me.

She's our guest, Father. After
saving her in a rescue operation..

..l got her here to show her our
village and to make her meet you.

You're making
mountain out of a molehill.

Of course. l
understood the moment l saw her.

Such a beautiful girl with a
fool like you.. impossible.

What's your name, dear?
- Zaara, sir. Zaara Hayaat Khan.

What a lovely name.
Where are you from, dear?

From Pakistan.

Oh, wow, that's fantastic.

Then you're our
extra-special guest. Look..

We've served the
people of our country a lot.

But this is our first
chance to be hospitable..

..to our neighbouring country.

What would you like to eat?
Should l get some butter milk?

Some milk, some..
- Oh, enough.

Come with me.

lf you get caught up in his chatter,
it'll be nightfall soon.

Move aside.
- Okay, never mind me.

Make way.
- Oh, yes

Veeru, where're you going?
Wait a minute.

All of you get going.

Yes, one minute..
- What?

Yes?
- Well, have you got my things?

Yes. Here's your bottle of rum.

Don't drink it all alone. - No way.

lf Maati catches you this time
around, l'm not going to lie to her.

Just once more.. one last time..
- Okay, last time.

Now, go. Go.

Cheers to the neighbouring country.

Come, l'll do that.
- No, l'll manage.

The way you're
making it, it's evident.

Someone else ties your hair at home.

Come, l'll make it for you.
Just feel at home. Come.

This is Veer's room, right? - Yes

Whenever he'd get a medal or
a photo, l'd hang it up here.

And when he's not at home,
then his father and l..

..warm our eyes looking at them.
- There's a lot of love..

..between the three of you.
- Because there's no one else..

..to share our love with.

His mother and father passed
away when he was really small.

Since then we're the
only ones for him.

We're actually his aunt
and uncle.

But he calls us his
father and mother.

We don't have any
children of our own.

So, it's just the three of us.
Look, your plait is ready.

Hey. l look just like all of you.
- This is nothing.

You'll look like a true Punjabi
girl tonight. lt's Lodi tonight.

And here, we celebrate
it with a lot of pomp.

l'll take out the dress l
wore for my first Lodi for you.

No, Maati, l'll wear my own clothes.
- You call me mother..

..and at the same time
argue with me?

Look, you've come to
our house just for a day.

For this one day at
least become one of us.

"Oh traveller, you've two
yellow and two red flowers."

Are you comfortable?
- Yes.

Like l was telling you.
When l was young..

..l would take Maati on a cycle
like this right till Amritsar.

Now, she's so become so fat
that she doesn't fit on a cycle.

No, Father, she's not fat at all.
- Oh, you don't know. l know.

Veer was telling me that Maati and..

..you have built this
village on your own. - Yes.

That's right. At first,
there were just fields here.

Then after writing many letters,
we arranged for electricity.

Do you see that hospital?
- Yes.

That was a cow shed earlier.
How are you, Doctor?

Doing fine, sir.
- Very well, friend.

And look, the children's school.

Maati and l were the
first teachers here.

No one knew how to read or write.

Now, the kids study
here till eighth grade.

After that, the boys are sent off
to Kartarpur, for further studies.

And what about the girls?
- lt's not possible for us..

..to send the girls so far.
And anyway, they have to learn to..

..look after the household. So, what
use is higher education for them?

That's not fair, Father.

Not fair? What do you mean by that?

l hope you don't mind this, Father.

What you and Maati have
done for this village..

..would've have taken
people centuries to achieve.

But while you made the men
capable of facing the world..

..you disabled the women.

That's why a Veer has
become an Air Force Pilot..

..and the girls of the village
remain illiterate and unpolished.

Girls today haνe reached the moon.

They walk
shoulder-to-shoulder with men.

With education, perhaps, a girl from
this village could've outdone Veer.

Don't you think so, Father?

Oh, Chaudhary Sumer Singh.
Where are you loitering?

Oh! Whenever l'm doing
something really important..

..she comes and troubles me.
Yes, madam. Now what?

lt's time to light the Lodi.
Come and get ready.

All right, l'm coming.

Come, dear. Let's light the Lodi.

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

"Who will save you poor one?"

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you."

"The Dullah married off
his daughter."

"He gave a measure of sugar!"

"The girl's shawl is torn."

"Who will stitch her shawl?"

"The landlords ravished her."

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

"Who will save you poor one?"

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you."

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

"Who will save you poor one?"

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you."

"Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

"Who will save you poor one?"

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you.
Who will save you poor one?"

"Dullah Bhatti is here for you.

Who will save you poor one?
Beautiful one like a ringlet one!"

Listen everybody.

Come here. Come on.

Coming, Father.

Let's go there.. Coming.

Everyone, listen to
what l have to say.

The cricket pitch that was going to
be made here.. will not happen now.

Why?
- Why, Father?

Relax, l'm telling you. Because now
we're building a girls high school.

The girls are glad.

l promise you that once
this school is built..

..the girls won't have to leave
the village for higher studies.

And one more thing, the
first brick for the school..

..isn't going to be laid by Maati or
me, but will be laid by the girl..

..because of whom this school is
being built. Ms. Zaara Hayaat Khan.

Come, dear.

Father, how can l..
- Why not?

Being so young, you've
taught me such a big lesson..

Then why can't you do
this little thing for me?

Come, dear, come.

Oh, Kamli.

l, Ginda Singh. l really like you.

Oh. l, Darshan Singh Aulakh..

Will die for you.

Maati, is this the custom of Lodi?
- No, this is Veer's father's custom.

What do you mean?
- ln our time, romance was taboo.

On top of that, l was from
Madras and he, from Punjab,

So, one night, during Lodi, he asked
for my hand in front of everybody.

My parents didn't know what
to say. And we got married.

After that, eνer since we've come
here and started celebrating Lodi..

..he's started this custom that
if a boy is in love with a girl..

..he confesses his
love in front of everyone.

lf the girl wants to refuse..

..she quietly throws a
fistful of sesame into the fire.

lf she wants to accept, she
calls out the boy's name..

..and breaks sugar cane.

Then after that we get them married.

Wow, this is such a
lovely custom. That means..

..when the bride and the groom agree,
what's the need of a priest.

Hey, Saraswati Kaur.

My lady from Madras. l,
Chaudhary Sumer Singh..

..ask for your hand in marriage
for the next seven lifetimes.

l've done it.

Come on, girl.

l'll set him right.

Let that be. Come on. Come on.

What.. my proposal.. Rejected?

Maati, what're you doing?
Father doesn't stand a chance?

Tell him if he wants to
spend seven lifetimes with me..

..he has to fulfil
certain promises. ls he ready?

Promises? What promises, Maati?

Sorry, Father. that's it. Now,
drop the sugar cane.

Okay, l'll drop it.

"l would sacrifice my life for you
if only l could know what you want."

"l would agree to everything,
my beautiful one."

"l would sacrifice my life for you
if only l could know what you want."

"l would agree to everything,
my beautiful one."

"l would sacrifice
my life for you."

"l know you very, νery well."

"lf you want to be with me then,
you better fulfil what l ask of you."

"l know you very, νery well."

"lf you want to be with me then, you
better fulfil what l ask of you."

"l know you very, νery well."

"Hey, you are my life."

"You are my beloved."

"The festival of Lodi is here?"

"Take your partners?"

"Grasp the wrist of your beloved."

"And never let it go."

"Never let it go."

"Don't tell lies."

"Don't be guilty of blasphemy?"

"Every oath you swear,
has been broken by you."

"Been broken by you"

"As soon as the sun
sets every evening..

..you drink with your cronies."

"The sun goes down and you get drunk.
What sort of life is this?"

"You're perfectly right and
henceforth l shall keep it in mind."

"Just let me drink today, from
tomorrow, l shall not touch a drop."

"Yes, now, he will come
straight home at sundown."

"l would sacrifice my life for you."

"My dear one, my fair one,
my handsome one, my beloved."

"My life, oh, dear one.
Oh, beautiful one."

"Everyday, l see you playing cards.
More beloved than me.."

"..are your fives,
sixes and sevens?"

"Why?"

"My card playing
foolishness will end forever."

"Now, there will be only two cards
in my life, the king and the queen."

"My life will be yours if you
give up these decks of cards."

"l know you very, νery well."

"Hey, you are my life."

"You are my beloved."

"The festival of Lodi is here?

"Take your partners?"

"Grasp the wrist of your beloved."

"And never let it go?"

"Never let it go"

"Don't tell lies?"

"Don't be guilty of blasphemy?"

"Every oath you swear,
has been broken by you."

"Been broken by you."

"Whenever l ask you to bring
something, you can never remember."

"l asked you for some ribbons
for my hair and you bought sweets."

"Now, l have this notebook
in which l will write.."

"..so that l can bring
exactly what you ask me to get."

"Yes, slowly, he will mend
his ways completely.. yes?"

"l would sacrifice my life for you."

"My beautiful one, my
innocent one, my life, my beloved."

"My dear one, my fair one,
my handsome one, my beloved."

"Whether you change or you don't,
you will always be mine."

"l want that in every
birth you should be mine."

"Beloved, in every birth,
l'm your worshipper."

"You were mine, you are mine
and you will always be mine."

"Yes, without you, he will be lost."

"l would sacrifice my life for you."

"lt's the season of Lodi."

"Make pairings."

"Grasp the wrist of your beloved,
and never let it go."

"Do not lie."

"Don't be guilty of blasphemy."

"Every oath you swear,
has been broken by you."

Father. Here you are, Father.

God knows where all
Maati's sent me to look for you.

Breakfast is getting cold. Come
quickly. l've got to leave. Come on.

Come here son. Sit.

What happened, Father?
What're you looking at?

l'm looking at my lifetime's
achievements, my legacy, my village.

Until now, l was very proud of
myself that l have done great work.

That l've developed
this village from nothing.

But yesterday..

..that young girl asked me an
innocent question. And l realised..

..that l haven't done much..
there's still a lot left to do.

Son, in the few years left of my
life, how much can l really achieve?

And after l die, this
village will be orphaned.

All the work will be
left incomplete.

So, l was seeing a
dream and wondering..

..if my dream will come true or not.
- What dream, Father?

l saw that after Maati and l are
gone, you are here riding my bicycle.

Your wife is sitting behind you.
The village is not orphaned.

Nothing is left incomplete.
That's what l was seeing.

So, why won't this dream come true?

Now that you've become
Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh..

..you'll settle in the city. Why
would you worry about the village?

No, Father. l am your
Veeru first and foremost.

And if you've seen a
dream it will come true.

Only l won't be
circling around on a cycle.

l'll use a helicopter. Will
that do? Okay, come on now..

Otherwise Maati's going to shout.
- Oh, there's one more thing.

ln my dream, l've also seen the girl
sitting behind you on the cycle.

Looks like you'νe already
had some rum this morning.

Father she's a Pakistani

She's Pakistani,
Chinese or Japanese.

l don't care. l can just see..

..that when this girl sits
behind you on the cycle..

..her hand will rest on your
shoulder, she'll never let you fall.

She'll never let you take a
wrong turn. Come here, sit. Listen..

When the right woman
comes into a man's life..

..that's when his
life becomes complete.

l Chaudhary Sumer
Singh am incomplete..

..without your Maati. And you
Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh..

..will be incomplete without Zaara.

That's why, first, you understand..

..what your heart is telling you,
and then quickly tell her.

Otherwise, son, it'll be too late.

Father, tell me one thing.
- Yes?

Since it's your dream, is
it okay if the wife sits..

..on the front seat of the cycle?

Yes, it's okay.
Should l go tell her?

No, please. Only l will tell her.
- No, no l'll tell her.

No, l do the talking.
- She's downstairs? l'll tell her.

Who's marrying? You or l?
- One and the same.

One and the same?
- Neνer mind. Hey, lucky girl.

May l leave, Maati?
- Oh, are you leaving?

l'll let you go only
on one condition.

You have to promise to come back.

Okay, l promise.

But in return, will you give
me permission for something?

What?

Now onwards..

..may l call you Bebe?

l think we should leave.

Or it'll get late.
- l'm ready. l'll go get my bag.

You're leaving?
- Yes, Maati.

You'd asked me to come here for
Lodi no matter what. So, l came.

But l've got leave for only two days.

l've to report at
headquarters tonight

l'll put Zaara on a bus to
Amritsar and.. - Absolutely not.

You'll take Zaara to Atari and see
her onto her train. She's all alone.

What if something happens to her?

She's become your favourite
in a day?

You would get upset when it was
time for me to leave, and stop me.

Today, you want me
to leave quickly?

l don't have time
for your nonsense.

l've made some sweets for
you and Ranjit. Take them

Oh, Ginda, where've you been?
- Veeru's getting late.

Father, l was filling up diesel.
- ls this any time to fill up?

Let it be.

Okay, now, bless me.

May you live long, son.

Tell her, okay?
- Yes, yes, l'll tell her.

Shall l?
- Stop pressurising me.

Maati, control him.

Oh, where are you going?
What's in this?

Not for you.
- No? l see.

For your son?
- Father.

What are you doing? Here,
girls don't touch the feet.

But daughters ask for blessings..

..before they bid
farewell to their fathers.

May you live long, my dear.

Give your parents
a message from me.

Okay.

Tell them that
a 60-year-old lndian..

..salutes the values
they've put into you.

Will we reach in an hour?
- lt will take about half hour.

Look after yourselves.

Goodbye.

What do you think?
Will Veeru tell her?

He's Chaudhary Sumer Singh's son,
why won't he tell her?

Didn't l tell you?

Stop it.
- What.. where're you going? Listen..

Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh,
thank you very much.

What for?

ln exchange for my one day..

..you've given me a lifetime
of memories and relationships.

lt was a promise from an lndian to a
Pakistani. lf l didn't fulfil it..

..my country's honour
would've been tarnished, right?

l think getting Bebe's ashes
here was God's way to get me here.

l was destined to meet all of you.
- Do you believe in destiny?

Of course.

Don't you?
- Not until now.

But now, l've begun to believe.

Are you all right?

lt's all right now. Come on.

Oh..

You aren't all right,
you're hurting?

Look, let's rest here for a while..
- No, l'll miss my train

You won't miss your train.

Lean on me. Put your hand across.

Your anklet.

l'll keep it. l'll
give it to you later.

Come, hold on tight.

How many times are you
going to save my life?

As many times you
put yourself at risk.

Actually, there's a
lot of hustle for seats.

The festival of Eid is coming up.

At this time, a lot of
people go across the border.

But don't worry, l'll find a way.

'The passengers are requested to..'

Thank God you're all right. l
just got off the train from Lahore.

l was finding out about
Kiritpur when l saw you.

Your father has returned.
He sent me.

Let's call home and
tell them you're fine.

Then we'll prepare for our return.

And you are..

This is Veer. Squadron
Leader Veer Pratap Singh.

Thanks to him, l'νe
managed to get here.

This is Raza. Raza Shirazi,
my fiance.

'Passengers going to
Lahore are requested to..

..before taking their
seats in the train.'

'We wish you a happy journey.
Thank you.'

The seats are done, we
should be leaving now.

So silly of me. l kept
talking about eνerything..

..but l forgot to tell you about
Raza. - You made a big mistake.

What?

You made a big mistake.

Zaara, l'm a very simple man.

l speak frankly and
understand things simply.

lt's the first time
l started thinking..

..differently because
of father and Maati.

The entire journey l kept thinking..

..up a way to stop you,
not to let you go..

..and tell you that l really like
you and if you think l'm okay then..

..let's get married.

And we'll breeze through
life together just like..

..these past two days.

But the guy up there
has strange ways.

He kept building my confidence
and then when we got here..

He changed the entire story.

You must be wondering why l'm
telling you all this right now.

Please don't get me wrong.

l understand that you
belong to someone else..

..and there's nothing
between us, nor can there ever be.

But wherever
whenever you need a friend..

..just remember that there
is a man across the border..

..who will give his life for you.

Zaara, we must leave.

Mr. Veer.

Zaara told me how you
saved her life.

Now, l'm indebted to you.

So, tell me how may l repay you?
- Just keep Zaara happy.

The debt will be repaid.

Careful, Mr Veer..

..lest l get the impression that
you've fallen in love with Zaara.

What is love..
l don't know. But yes.

l do wish from the
bottom of my heart..

..that Zaara never
has tears in her eyes.

That she always keeps smiling.

lf that's what you call loνe,
then love it is.

Mr. Veer, you're talking
about my fiancee to my face.

l don't know whether to consider
this a compliment or an insult.

lf you think of this as nothing,
it's better. For the truth is that..

..l'm nothing to her and
you are everything for her.

Goodbye.

Let's go.

"Just for two moments, the
caravans of our dreams made a stop."

"And then, you went
your way and l went mine."

"Just for two moments,
existed the story of our hearts."

"And then you went
your way and l went mine."

"Was that really you or
was it a luminous sunbeam?"

"Was that you or was
it a blossoming bud?"

"Was that you or was that
the monsoon of my dreams?"

"Was that you or was
that a cloud of happiness?"

"Was that you or was it
a full blooming flower?"

"Was that you or did l
find a beautiful new world?"

"Just for two moments, the
caravans of our dreams made a stop."

"And then you went
your way and l went mine."

"Just for two moments,
existed the story of our hearts."

"And then you went
your way and l went mine."

786.

Dinner time.

And ma'am, your visiting
time is over.

You'll have to leave now.

l'll come back tomorrow.

Sorry, your story is
left incomplete.

Come on, ma'am.

And 786..

..l'm sending someone to
take the plate in ten minutes.

Eat quickly, or you'll have to
sleep on an empty stomach again.

Have you ever wondered
why his number is 786?

What?

Have you ever wondered.. From
the thousands of prisoners here..

..how come this lone Hindu prisoner
has got Allah's holy number?

This is not a mere coincidence,
this is God's great miracle.

His way of telling all of
you that this is God's own man.

Treat him with respect.

Next time, you speak
to him so rudely..

..give a serious thought
to what l've just said.

These are sweets.
My mother sent them for you.

Please have some. She has
sent them with her blessings.

What happened? You don't like it?

No.. no.. these are just
like the ones Maati would make.

Things made by a mother's
hands are the same everywhere.

May l have one more?

Yes, please. These are all for you.

Tell your mother she's
filled my entire childhood..

..into this little box.

Delicious.

All night, l was
telling my mother your story.

My mother cried a
little and went to sleep.

But l stayed up waiting for dawn.

l kept thinking how
and why did you get here?

Kept wondering why didn't
this story end at that station?

This story couldn't
haνe ended there.

Because so far, this was
only a tale of Veer's love.

Zaara's love had not yet begun.

And without knowing what Zaara felt,
Veer's story and Veer's life..

..would both remain incomplete.

Jehangir Hayaat Khan, Zaara's
father and the pride of Lahore.

Since the inception of Pakistan
the name of the Hayaat Khan family..

..was synonymous with respect,
power and glory.

Jehangir Hayaat Khan was taking
his first step into politics..

..with the help of Abdul Shirazi.

Another rich,
respectable man of Lahore.

He was Raza Shirazi's father.

Zaara and Raza's marriage
was no ordinary relationship.

All these people's futures
were dependent on this alliance.

ln this situation..

Zaara's coming to lndia all
by herself was..

..a νery irresponsible act.

And to forgive such an act was
not Jehangir Hayaat Khan's nature.

lt was a month since
Zaara had returned..

..but her father had
not yet spoken with her.

Oh, God. Ma'am, l'll burst with
happiness what an elegant outfit..

..and look. l think this
jewellery set is an antique.

l think it belongs to
Mr. Raza's ancestors.

Our Zaara is very lucky. Mr Raza has
everything. Respectability, money.

There's no doubt in that.
He has everything by God's grace.

There could not be a better
match than this. Just pray for them.

"There's a man across the border
who will give his life for you."

Mother, can you give
up your life for papa?

Of course. He's my husband.
l can do anything for him

And would papa give
up his life for you?

What kind of a question
is that. Pray to God..

..that such an
occasion does not arise.

But if such an occasion
were to arise?

Then can you say for sure that
papa would give up his life for you?

Have you gone mad?

Shabbo, give me some lime.
My hands have become sticky.

That means you're not sure?

Listen, baby, between
a woman's love..

..and a man's love,
there's a huge difference.

A woman loves with
all her heart and soul.

Men do not have the
strength to love like that.

l know why you're
asking me this question.

But don't expect this from Raza.

Just give him your heart and
soul and fulfil your duties.

And l am very sure, that he
will fulfil his duties too.

But he won't giνe up his
life for me, isn't it?

You're talking nonsense.

Here, Shabbo, you put it. This
girl is going to drive me mad.

"There's a man across the border
who will give his life for you."

But l know someone who will
willingly give up his life for me.

A person whose eyes are honest
and whose words have honour.

A man who can forsake
everything for a woman's love.

A person to whom it
makes no difference that..

..l'm a Pakistani and
he's an lndian.

Who're you talking about?
What've you been up to?

Tell me the truth. Swear on me.

He hasn't even touched me, Mother.

But l have lost my
heart and soul to him.

Don't you know your father?
Till now, he's not talking to you.

lf he finds out about this,
he'll kill you. Don't you realise?

You're getting engaged today.
You're going to be married soon.

Now, it's wrong to think
of anything else, Zaara.

Oh, stupid girl, love is only found
in books, and poetry. Not in life.

That's what l thought
until now.. until now..

'Listen.'

Shabbo, please put
some sense into her.

Otherwise a storm will
hit this house.

Just understand one thing,
Zaara. Your future is with Raza.

Now, neither you can
change this, nor God.

What's all this, Zaara?

lt's love, Shabbo.

lt doesn't come with reason.

"Pearl millet. We
crushed it in our palms."

"Pearl millet."

We crushed pearl millet in our
palms. My beloved is angry."

"My beloved is angry.
l sent him away."

"Pearl millet."

"The day that l will
forget you will never come."

"You had fallen for my beauty."

When he used to look into my eyes.

Wow. - He used to show
a lot of respect."

"Wow!"

Sit.

Since you're my only child,
l've given you a lot of freedom.

You've been brought up more
like a son than a daughter.

Normally, a mother explains
a daughter's duties to her.

But since l think of you as my son,
l shall myself do the honours.

You're aware..

..that your
grandfather was one of the..

..most respected
politicians of Pakistan.

But he died just a few
days before he could reach..

..the pinnacle of his success.

Ever since..

..being his successor,
l've been trying to..

..get his party to that same level.

l've been unsuccessful so far.
But now thanks to Raza's father..

..success seems near.

ln a few days, you'll be
going to their house..

..taking my honour with you.

lt's your duty to understand
the sensitiνity of this bond.

To spread happiness
in good times and bad.

To strengthen the bonds
of every relationship.

And no matter what, safeguard
their honour as well as ours.

Any small mistake on your
part can destroy everything.

l hope you understand
what l'm saying.

Yes.

Do you have anything to say?

Then would you please come here?

lt's been a long time since l've
seen the dimples of your cheeks.

l hope you haven't left
them in lndia.

That's my girl.

"Dearest behold.."

"The distances have gone."

"l am here, here, here and here."

"Dearest behold.
The distances have gone."

"l am here, here, here and here."

"Dearest behold.
The distances have gone."

"l am here, here, here and here."

"Beyond all borders and
encumbrances."

"l am here, here, here and here."

"l am the secret you
can never hide."

"l am the gesture
you can never forget."

"Why are you surprised
at these vibrations?"

"Because l am the
sound of your heart."

"Listen, if you can to
the rhythms of your heart."

"l'm here, here, here and here."

"Beyond all borders
and encumbrances."

"l am here, here, here and here."

"l and only l am now
in your thoughts."

"l am in all your
questions and your answers."

"l occupy all our dreams."

"l am in the radiance
of your sight."

"You can see me
wherever your vision goes."

"l'm here, here, here and here."

"Dearest behold.."

"The distances have gone."

"l am here, here, here and here."

"Beyond all borders
and encumbrances."

"l am here, here, here and here."

"l am here, here.."

"..here and here."

Zaara.
- Shabbo.

Tell him to get out of my sight.
l see him eνerywhere.

He's embedded in my soul, Shabbo.
Ask him to leaνe.

Please tell him,
Shabbo. Please tell him.

Please tell him, Shabbo.

Yes, Squadron Leader
Veer Pratap Singh.

Hello, Captain Veer Singh?
l'm Shabbo speaking.

Shabbo? l'm sorry.
l can't place you.

l'm calling from Zaara's house.

An unknown girl who l'd never
met before, was giving me..

..the biggest news of my life.
She very simply told me that..

..Zaara was in love with you
and she's about to get married.

Come to Lahore, take Zaara away.

She'll never be able to
take this step all by herself.

She says that you can
give your life for her.

And then she asked
me one last question.

How much do you love Zaara?

l didn't have an answer
to that question then.

Neither do l have one now.

How much do l love Zaara?

l don't know.

l know.

An lndian Air Force Pilot is not
permitted to come to Pakistan.

So, l know that the
minute you got this news..

..you resigned knowing
fully well that you will..

..never be able to rejoin.

Then without telling
anyone you left for Lahore.

Not knowing the outcome of the
journey. Would you reach in time?

Would you meet Zaara?
Would Zaara come back with you?

Or would you yourself be able to
return.. you didn't know anything.

But you still left.

Perhaps, you don't know,
but l know..

..how much you love Zaara. l know.

Welcome, sir. l'm Shabbo.

l'm sorry, l couldn't arrange
for anything better than this.

Wow, you can see the
entire city from here.

There can't be a better room
than this in the whole of Lahore.

l didn't tell Zaara
that you're coming.

l was scared that she would stop me.

Day after tomorrow is her wedding.
She can't come out of her house.

But tomorrow, she'll be going
to the shrine with everyone.

This is Munir, my younger brother.
He'll bring you to the shrine.

Then we'll leave it to God.

So, Munir, my fate
is in your hands now.

Well, l'll leave.

Leaving?

l got to leave,
if l'm away for long..

..they'll start wondering
where l am.

lf you need anything,
Munir's here.

Thank you, Shabbo.

l didn't think you'd come,
but now, after meeting you..

..l'm sure you'll take
Zaara with you.

How could l not come?

My father says, "True love
happens only once in a lifetime."

"And when it does, no God or
Allah can come in its way."

Tomorrow, we'll know how
true my love is in Allah's eyes.

"l have broken all the
barriers of society."

"l have left the
world and come to you."

"A besotted lover
has come to your door."

"Has come, has come.."
- "A besotted loνer has come."

"A besotted lover
has come to your door."

"Besotted by you, besotted
by you, besotted by you.."

"A besotted lover
has come to your door."

"He is completely devoted to you."

"He is completely obsessed by you."

"He will die for your love."

"A besotted lover
has come to your door."

"lf l see your face.."

"l will forget all my sorrows."

"These tears that are flowing,
this is all they are saying."

"You are beyond where l am,
but l have come here."

"lf l could have one favour,
just a glance from your eyes.."

"l would give my breath and heart.
l would give my entire life."

"Like the moth dies on the flame.."

"A besotted lover
has come to your door."

"A besotted lover.
A besotted lover."

"A besotted lover."

"A besotted lover.
A besotted lover."

"Besotted. Besotted."

"Your love story has
reached a critical juncture.

She has to sacrifice
herself in your love."

"Your love story has
reached a critical juncture."

He's conscious, but
he doesn't want to be.

He's listening to everything,
but he doesn't want to hear.

He's festering the shock deep
within as if he's punishing himself.

The next 24 hours are very critical.

He may not be able
to take another shock.

The nurse is here and l will keep
coming every three or four hours.

Goodbye.

Don't worry, Sister-in-law.
They were all our own people.

Thank Allah that the news
hasn't spread in the city.

Anyway, tomorrow, after the wedding,
all the wagging tongues will stop.

After all that's happened,
Raza's still ready to get married?

Mariam ma'am, this marriage is
not only between Raza and Zaara.

There's a very deep and a serious..

..pact behind it. lt's
on this foundation..

..that your husband's and
after him Raza's career rests.

Raza is very well aware of this.
Now, Zaara has to understand this..

lf this wedding doesn't
take place tomorrow then..

..Jehangir Hayaat Khan's
daughter's name will be..

..linked to an lndian man forever.

Mr. Khan's years of
hard work will be ruined.

He'd lose the elections
for sure, and he'll face..

..a lifetime of disgrace.

He will not be able to bear..

..the weight of that shame.

He won't be able to bear it.

Prepare for the wedding,
Brother Abdul

Tomorrow, there will be
a wedding in this house.

Where're you going?

To Zaara's house.

Please don't go anywhere.
Let tonight pass.

Raza is looking for you everywhere.
The house is completely silent.

You can't go there and do anything.
Abba is in deep shock.

l am the cause for the
shock and the solution.

l hadn't come here
just to see Zaara's face.

lf nobody speaks,
there's bound to be silence.

Someone has to make the first move.

Whether it brings on
a storm or a wedding.

My name is Mariam Hayaat Khan.
l'm Zaara's mother.

But perhaps, today, l have
lost the right to call her my own.

Because my
daughter's not mine anymore.

She's yours now.

l've come to ask you to
give my daughter back to me.

Please give us back our daughter.
Otherwise, her father will die.

He won't be able to
bear the shame, he'll die.

l've heard that you save lives.

You're the one who
saved Zaara's life.

So, now, please save
her father's life.

l beg of you, please save his life.

Otherwise, he'll die.

He'll die.

A mother never has to beg to
her son. She just has to order.

Zaara has always and
will always belong to you.

Did you think that l would've taken
Zaara away without your permission?

People say that love is blind..

..so, we too were
blinded by our love.

We could only see each other.

We didn't see if we
were harming anyone.

Hurting anyone or..

..if someone's life was at stake.

We couldn't see anything.

But now, everything's clear.

Love can't be more
important than someone's life.

Don't you worry.

Zaara will marry the
person of her parent's choice.

Prepare for the wedding.
l'll talk to Zaara.

l promise you that she will
willingly agree to the marriage.

ls every son from
your country like you?

l don't know.

But yes, every mother in my
country is exactly like you.

lf you think that
l've made a wrong..

..decision then just tell me.

No one will be able to stop
me from taking you to lndia.

Your decision is absolutely right.

This has happened because of
one silly mistake on my part.

l'd made a promise to
myself that l won't break.

lf only l'd been able to stop
myself when l saw you yesterday.

That..

One silly mistake of yours will help
get me through the rest of my life.

lf you'd taken that away from me
then what would l take back with me?

Why is God doing this to us?

l've never done
anything wrong in my life.

So, why is he punishing me
like this?

l'm keeping two
moments of your life with me.

And l'm giving two
moments of my life to you.

These two moments are
the symbol of our love.

These two moments make
our loνe story.

Now, we'll live our
lives on these two moments.

But with a smile.

Neither will our love weaken.

Nor will our duties
remain unfulfilled.

You'll honour your
parents by being a good wife.

And l'll fulfil father's
dreams back in the village.

And after you've had
eight to ten children..

..bring everyone along for a visit.

l'll take you for a ride on a
cycle and show you a new village.

But after haνing eight to ten kids,
l won't be able to sit on a cycle.

Yes, you've got a point.

Then l'll arrange for a tractor.

"Was that you or was
that just a fragrant wind?"

"Was that you or were
there colours everywhere?"

"Was that you or were
those shinning pathways?"

"Was that you or were those
songs resounding in the atmosphere?"

"Was it you l found,
or was it my destiny?"

"Was it you or was
there magic in the air?"

"Just for two moments, the caravans
of our dreams made a stop."

"And then you went
your way and l went mine."

"Just for two moments,
existed the story of our hearts."

"And then you went
your way and l went mine."

lt's my wedding day today, Abba.

Aren't you going to give me away?

Aren't you going to put your
hand on my head and bless me?

Please forgive me, my dear.

l don't know whether this is
my obligation or my weakness.

Please forgive me.

This is a holy amulet.
This will protect you.

The moment you cross the border,
take out the coins..

..and give them to someone needy.

My religion does not permit,
but still, now onwards..

..l'll pray to Allah
everyday and ask him..

..to give you Zaara
in every other birth.

l'm leaving.

Listen.

Sign here.

What's this?

Here.

lt says here that my
name is Rajesh Rathore.

l work for the
lndian lntelligence RAW.

Critical.. political.. secrecy.

Sending Pakistani secrets to lndia..
- That's correct.

No way. My name is Veer
Pratap Singh, ex-lndian Air Force.

l'd come here just two
days ago to visit somebody..

..and now, l'm going back.

My passport is in my bag,
you can check.

We've found this in your bag.

Your name is written
clearly as Rajesh Rathore.

Let me see.

We have witnesses too
who can recognise you.

What's going on? Why
are you doing this?

Okay. You were just saying that
you were here to meet somebody.

Tell us their names,
we'll call them.

Yes.. l'm..

l'm here..

Tell us.

l didn't come to meet anybody.

Wow, what loνe!

lf you take her name,
she will be disgraced?

You'll ruin yourself, but
won't let your love be cursed.

Yes, Mr. Veer. This is
exactly what l expected of you.

Mr. Veer, there's one thing
that is very special about..

..both our countries.

On the basis of power and money,
anything is possible. lsn't that so?

What were you thinking?
That you could come here..

..and declare your
love for my wife-to-be..

..in front of everyone and leave.

And l'd stand aside
and watch the whole show?

Mr. Veer, l'm about to
live my life with a woman..

..who's in love with someone else.

And it's my bad luck that l can't
even back off from this marriage.

Can you imagine?

Can you imagine.. everyday of
my life will be a living hell.

You and Zaara were the
ones who dared to love.

Why should l be put to test?

Either your life
should be a living hell..

Or Zaara's.

Not mine

You take great pride
in your love, right?

So, now you're being tested.

l can make Zaara's life heaven or
hell. But it's all in your hands.

As long as you sit silently
within the four walls of a prison..

..Zaara's life will be
more beautiful than heaven.

The moment you open your mouth,
Zaara's life will..

..become worse than hell.

Veer Pratap Singh's
identity has to be destroyed..

..in order to give Zaara
a good life.

Now, this.. is the true
test of love.

l'll take your leaνe.

lt's time for the wedding.

Either you disgrace
the names of Zaara..

..and her family and
buy your freedom..

..or sign on those papers and..

..ensure a lifetime of
happiness for Zaara.

The decision is in your hands.

Goodbye.

"Why is there a tradition
of cruelty?"

"Why is the society the way it is?"

"These traditions of this world.. l
am completely oνerwhelmed by them."

"Do not ask what my
complaints are.."

"..or why l've been
given this unhappiness."

"What can l tell you,
why is love a crime."

"Why does one cry?
Why does this happen?"

"Why is everyone a
stranger to his heart?"

"What turn has this story taken?"

"What sort of world is
this that we live in?"

"Where sorrows wear
the face of happiness?

"What sort of world is
this that we live in."

"Where sorrows wear
the face of happiness?"

"Who do l call my own
and who is a stranger?"

"What turn has this story taken?"

Ms. Zaara Hayaat Khan,
daughter of Jehangir Hayaat Khan.

Your marriage has been
fixed with Raza Shirazi.

Son of Abdul Malik
Shirazi at a dowry of..

..Rs.5 million. Do you
accept this marriage?

"What turn has my story taken?"

Do you accept that your
name is Rajesh Rathore or no?

"My love story. My love story."

"What turn has my story taken?"

l accept.

"What turn has my story taken?

"What turn has my story taken?"

The bus that left from
Lahore met with an accident..

..before it reached lndia.

Nobody survived.

My name too was on
the passenger list.

l was happy that Maati and
father would hear about my death.

lf they got the news
that l was missing..

..then they wouldn't have been
able to live or die in peace.

Now, in lndia, Veer Pratap
Singh was dead and in Pakistan.

There was no sign of
Veer Singh left.

Now, his only identity was..

Prisoner number 786.

786.

My country owes you
22 years of your life.

l can't bring back these 22 years.

But l take a vow.

That l won't put flowers
on my father's grave until..

..Veer Pratap Singh
doesn't get his name..

..his identity and his country back.

So, Ms. Samiya Siddique,
this is your first case?

Yes.
- Congratulations.

Thank you, sir.

And you're the defence
counsel on behalf of the..

..Human Rights Commission?

That's right, sir.
- Good. That's good.

No one is
representing the Prosecution?

Well, sir, they should be coming.

May l come in sir?

Oh, it's you, Mr. Zakir.

Good morning, sir.
- Morning. Come in, take a seat.

That's Mr. Zakir Ahmed.

l know. l know him very well.

Come.

Sorry, Your Honour, you
know the traffic of Lahore..

Zakir sir, are you
presenting the case..

..on behalf of the
Government of Pakistan?

Yes, sir. Actually, l've not
been to court since many days.

People maybe thinking that
Zakir Ahmed has forgotten..

..how to fight a case.

And anyway, l think this
case is very interesting.

What do you think, Saamiya?

So, you both know one another?

Of course. Saamiya was
working for us earlier.

But perhaps, she didn't
approve of the way we worked..

..so, she went over to
the Human Rights camp.

She's a very capable lady, it'll be
fun to fight the case opposite her.

There was a special purpose
for calling both of you here.

lt would be better if
both the parties can have..

..an out of court settlement.

Otherwise, the court has fixed
the date for day after tomorrow.

But yes, if the case does not
start the day after tomorrow..

..then the next date could be after
six months or maybe eνen a year.

We're ready, sir. But if the
defence needs more time then..

Defence is ready, sir.
- But Saamiya..

Sir, you can fix it for day after
tomorrow. My client has waited..

..for 22 years to get justice.
l can't make him wait any more.

Okay, then that's fixed.

l thank you both for coming here.

Good day.
- Good day, sir.

Okay, Saamiya. l'll see
you in court. Good day.

This was an impossible
case right from the start.

And now, with Zakir Ahmed's arrival,
there's absolutely no chance.

But this case is too small for
his portfolio.. l don't know why.

l can't understand anything.

Listen, just make any
excuse and drop this case.

This is your first case
and the way Zakir Ahmed..

..insults the opposition,
he'll ruin your career.

That's exactly what he wants.

What do you mean?
- Sahil, do one thing.

Go back to the office and
make a list of the witnesses.

l'll be there in a while.

But where're you going?
- To meet Zakir Ahmed.

Okay. What? Saamiya.

Ms. Saamiya Siddique, you'd sworn
that you'd never step into my office.

Then how could you
bear to come here today?

There's nothing like that, sir.

Just that my
principles differed from yours.

And l thought that if l could not
respect working by your principles..

..then it's better that l leave.
- lnteresting, very interesting.

You've developed great
principles at a young age.

My principles have been passed
on to me as my father's legacy.

Saamiya, do you know that
you're the first person..

..who refused to take a
case offered by Zakir Ahmed.

Here, people wait for years in the
hope of getting their first case.

But l recognised your capability,
l chose you.

l ignored your age,
your inexperience..

..and even the fact
that you're a woman.

And what did you do
in spite of that?

You threw the case back in my face.

lt would've set
a criminal free, sir.

And according to me,
that would've been wrong.

lt's not a lawyer's job to
decide what's right or wrong.

lt's the court's job.

A lawyer's duty is to win the case
under any circumstance. Nothing else.

Well, that's the
difference between you and me, sir.

Your principle is to fight to win..

..and my principle is
to fight for the truth.

lnteresting, very interesting. So,
now you're giving me lessons in law.

This was all that was
left for me to experience.

Let's forget the past. Otherwise,
we'll keep opening up old wounds.

lf you've taken the trouble
to come all the way here..

..then it must be
something important. Sit.

What can Zakir Ahmed do for you?

Look, sir, being my first
case it's obvious that..

..l will make some mistakes.

And now that you're the opposition,
the problems will increase.

Because of some trifle on my part..

..l don't want that
lndian prisoner's freedom..

..to be revoked. Because..

He's completely innocent.
That's true.

A great injustice has
been done to him, sir.

And he truly deserves his freedom.

Finally, you've
stooped down to our level.

Basically you've come asking for
help to win your first case, right?

Defeating Zakir Ahmed takes your
career off to a flying start. No?

Have you forgotten that Zakir
Ahmed has never lost a case as yet?

And now, it's νery
important for me to win this case.

Because l want to teach a lesson to..

..headstrong
youngsters like yourself..

..the repercussions of not
following Zakir Ahmed's principles.

What's the matter,
Ms. Saamiya Siddique?

Lost faith in your
principles of truth that you..

..come begging for a win?

Please forgive me, sir.

For a while, l thought
that you were almost human.

l just came to discuss if
there's any possibility of..

..giving this man his freedom
without taking this case to court.

But you mistook my
humanity to be my weakness.

Now, we'll meet in court. Be
prepared to lose your first case.

Because now, prisoner 786
will be sent to lndia, and..

..neither you nor the
State of Pakistan will stop me.

lnteresting.

Very interesting.

Can l ask you one question?

You hadn't spoken to
anyone in all these years..

..then why did you tell me
your story?

You called me by my name.

What?

You're the first person who
didn't doubt my innocence.

The first person who
belieνed that l am Veer Singh.

The truth is that in all these years,
l'd forgotten my own identity.

You reminded me of who l am.

You gave me respect by
calling me by my name.

Veer Pratap Singh.

For a prisoner who has
been insulted for the..

..last 22 years..

..this was a great thing.
Great thing.

Now, l'll eat some more, okay?

lt's our first day
in court tomorrow.

You remember your promise,
don't you?

That you're going to
change out of the garb of..

..786 and come as..

..Squadron Leader
Veer Pratap Singh.

No.
- What?

Do you remember your promise?
- Of course, l remember it.

Under no circumstances am
l to mention the name of..

..Zaara or the Hayaat Khan family.

You keep your promise,
and l'll keep mine.

Your Honour, Defence would
like to call its first witness.

Defence calls its first witness.

Defence rests, Your Honour.

l call upon the
Prosecution to present its case.

Your Honour..

A man has been in prison
for the past 22 years..

..and that prison is in Pakistan.
And that man..

..who was imprisoned in a
Pakistani jail since 22 years is..

..an lndian.

Hearing this, you, me, and
everyone sitting in this courtroom..

..will have tears in their eyes.
And we'll hope for some way..

..that man can go back to
his country, to his home.

Because we are human
and we've been taught..

..to respect all human beings.
But Your Honour..

ln a court of law what man
can't see, the law can..

..and according to the law the
State is bigger than the individual.

And for a person who works against
the interests of the country..

..even being sentenced
to death 22 times is less.

This case is as transparent
as water.

There's no question of any doubt.

Prosecution will in a
matter of just 30 minutes..

..and with the help of just three
witnesses, prove without a doubt..

..that the defendant
Rajesh Rathore is not worthy..

..of going back to his country or
his home until the day of his death.

That's all, Your Honour.

Now, l call upon the
Defence to present their case.

Ms. Siddique, best of luck.

Your Honour, Prosecution Counsel
Mr. Zaheer Khan was very quick to..

Zakir Ahmed says that this
case is as transparent as water.

But Mr. Zaheer Khan forgets..
- Ms. Saamiya Siddique.

My name is Zakir Ahmed! - Being
called by another name once..

..has infuriated you to such
an extent? Then just think..

..if you were called by
another name every single day..

..for 22 years..

Can you imagine what
would it feel like then?

Your Honour, this case is not being
fought to send an lndian back..

..to his country or his home.

This case is being
fought to give a man back..

..his identity, his individuality.
Someone is asking you..

..to give him back his name.
He's telling you that..

l am Veer Pratap Singh.

Ex-lndian Air Force Officer
Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh.

Just give me back the
respectability of my name.

l don't want anything else.

Maybe not in 30 minutes
like the Prosecution Counsel..

..but l will definitely prove that
this man is not Rajesh Rathore..

..but Veer Pratap Singh. Then
whether to send him to lndia..

..or keep him in Pakistan,
that is in your hands.

That's all, Your Honour.

Now, Prosecution may
call upon it's witnesses.

l'd like to call upon my first
witness police officer Dilbaaz Khan.

Who had arrested
Rajesh Rathore 22 years ago.

"The winding Roads Beckon us."

"Where have we come to?"

"Eyes are shaded with dreams.."

"Where have we come to?"

Mr. Dilbaaz Khan, l know a
lot of time has passed by.

Could you tell the court
without any doubt or hesitation..

..who this man is?
- Yes, sir, l remember very well.

This man is an lndian spy. He's
an agent of RAW, Rajesh Rathore.

Some 22 years ago,
Anwar Ali and myself..

We forced him to get
off a bus going from..

..Lahore to lndia and arrested him.

We had received an
intelligence report..

..that this man was
conspiring against Pakistan.

Good. - Mr. Anwar Ali, can you
tell me, if you found in his bag..

..a passport identifying
him as Rajesh Rathore?

Then how is it possible
that this same man's ticket..

..was booked in the
name of Veer Pratap Singh?

But sir, that was the thing..

Honour, this person
also had a passport..

..in the name of Veer Pratap Singh.

And how could one
person have two passports?

For this reason, our
suspicion changed to certainty.

And after we questioned him, he
himself signed the affidavit..

l, Rajesh Rathore..

"Golden warmth that
sprinkles our paths.."

"..has warmed our lives."

"The earth sleeps
wearing a blanket of ice."

"Our hearts are afire."

"Winds change course,
bodies shiver."

"Where have we come to?"

l've being seeing him
for the last ten years.

He was always quiet
and kept to himself.

He never communicated with anyone.

But whenever a
prisoner was ill or upset..

..he would go forth to
heal him and comfort him.

l don't know if he is Veer
Pratap Singh or Rajesh Rathore..

..for me, he's just 786.

God's own man.

Yes, sir. This Hindu here
is Allah's noble servant.

He's spent 22 years in prison..

There can't be greater
punishment than this.

Send him back to his homeland.

Send him back.

Mr. Majid Khan, it looks like..

..you have no great love
for your country Pakistan.

lf it were up to you, then every
person who had spied upon Pakistan..

..every conspirator,
should be set free by the court.

Sir, that's not what l meant..
- Just reply with a yes or a no.

Mr Majid Khan, only
with a yes or no.

No.
- Good.

Your witness.

No questions, Your Honour.

"l wonder when it will
stop pouring."

"You've got excuses
a plenty to love."

"lt seems like there's
a procession of stars."

"Night is resplendent
only for us."

"Dreams sparkle.."

"They light up our hearts."

"Where have we come to?"

The next date for this
case is after one week..

..on Monday, 21 st March.

On that day, l will
hear the Defence's case.

And immediately after that,
l will pass my judgement.

Defence should be
ready with their case.

Adjourned.

l'll have to mention Zaara's name.

No.

Please.. for once..

Let me bring Zaara
or any one person..

..from the Hayaat
family to the court..

..and in a moment, the verdict
will swing to our favour.

Absolutely not.

Why don't you try and understand?
We're losing this case.

The court does not have
time for prisoners like you.

ln this country, there are too
many prisoners and very few courts.

A lot of prisoner's cases
come up after they're dead.

You'll never get such
an opportunity again.

You'll die lying right here..
you'll die. Don't you understand?

Zaara must be the
mother of two by now.

She perhaps has a 21 -year-old
daughter and a 1 9-year old-boy.

She must've passed through all
the good and bad times of her life.

Her days, her evenings must've
settled down to a fine rhythm.

lt must now be a
peaceful life for Zaara.

Zaara.

And tomorrow, you'll drag her to
court and in front of everyone..

..you'll ask her
who's Veer Pratap Singh?

Questions will be raised.

What is the relationship
between Veer and Zaara?

And no one will be able
to understand the answers.

No one will understand.

ln an instant, Raza
Shirazi will divorce her.

Zaara's life will be ruined.

She must be living peacefully.

For the last 22 years, l
haνe been guarding her honour.

Today, how can l trample
upon her honour and go home?

l can't do that, Saamiya.

And l know you won't
be able to do it either.

l'm sorry, for a while, being a
lawyer made me forget my humanity.

l forgot..

That Veer and Zaara's names
can never be taken together.

Now, there's only one way out.
l'll have to go to lndia..

..to bring Veer Pratap
Singh's identity from his country

Time is short.

l'm leaving. Take care.

Saamiya..

Until now, this amulet has protected
me, now, it will protect you.

lf l lose..

..will you forgive me?

On one condition.

Every day, you must bring me..

..sweets.

Take care.

Excuse me.

Can you show me where
Chaudhary Sumer Singh's house is?

Yes. The largest house
at the corner there.

That's Chaudhary sir's house.
- Thanks.

But who're you looking for?
- For Mr. Singh and his wife.

lt's been years
since both of them died.

But if you want to see the house,
you're most welcome.

That house is always open.

l'm in a bit of a hurry,
please forgive me, goodbye.

Zaara, oh, Zaara..

l'm not sparing you.

Hey, who're you? What do you want?

Why are you crying?

Say something,
are you deaf or what?

Shabbo, look, here's a visitor.

And you Jassi.. come here.

Oh, you'll be the death of me.

l'll tell your mother
that you aren't studying.

Yes.. tell me..

What do you want?

You're Shabbo?

Who else can l be?

And she's..

Zaara?

You came asking this?

ls she Zaara Hayaat Khan?

How do you know this name?

She's Jehangir Hayaat
Khan's daughter from Lahore?

Who are you?

After hearing about Veer's death,
Zaara called off the marriage.

Abba himself got her divorced.

Zaara came here to help
father and Maati to make..

..Veer's dream come true.

Raza settled overseas.
Abba left politics.

He died two years later.

A few years later ma'am also died.

The Hayaat Khan name
no longer existed.

Today, father and Maati are no more.

But she won't go back. She says..

"My soul is embedded here.
Now, l'll live and die here."

Which century are
these people from, Shabbo?

There's a Veer who
so easily sacrificed..

..22 years of his life..

..to protect Zaara's honour..

..and there's Zaara who
spent 22 years of her life..

..in a strange land to
keep Veer's dream alive.

Are they humans
pretending to be gods..

..or are they gods
disguised as humans?

This was my mother's.

22 years ago, Mariam
Hayaat Khan had tied..

..this amulet on an lndian..

..while bidding him goodbye,
so that it would protect him.

That person did not reach
lndia but for 22 years..

..this charm has been
protecting him.

That person's name is..

Veer Pratap Singh.

He's in prison, in a jail in Lahore.

l am his lawyer.

And l've come to take you to him.

For the last 22 years, God has
been testing you both intensely.

But now, not even God can
separate Zaara and Veer.

Not even God can
separate Zaara and Veer.

Mr. Sahil Farooque, l'm asking
you where is the Defence Counsel?

Your Honour, she must be on her way.

lt seems like she has
decided to give up the case.

Please begin with the proceedings

lrresponsible..

Absolutely irresponsible of the
Defence Counsel not to have arrived.

Mr. Sahil Farooque, do
you have anything to say?

Your Honour, Saamiya..

l mean my learned
colleague should be here soon.

There's no problem..

There is a problem, Mr. Farooque.
There is a problem.

lt's no small matter to waste
the court's time in this manner.

Especially when l
had clearly specified..

..that this day has been
reserved for the Defence's case.

Then what's the reason for
her absence from the court?

lt's obvious that the
Defence does not have a case.

Silence on the defendant's
part and..

"For you, l have
lived all these days."

"With my lips sealed."

"For you, l have lived all
these days, with my unshed tears."

"But in my heart,
the flames of love.."

"..have always been
burning for you, only for you."

"For you, l have lived all
these days, with my unshed tears."

"For you, l have lived all
these days, with my lips sealed."

"But in my heart,
the flames of love.."

"..have always been
burning for you, only for you."

"Life has brought me.."

"..a volume of old times."

"Life has brought me a
volume of old times."

"And l am surrounded
by countless memories."

"Unasked, l have now found
all the answers l sought."

"Look, what l yearned
for and what l got."

"But in my heart,
the flames of love.."

"Have always been
burning for you, only for you."

"How can l describe the
cruelty of this world?"

"l was ordered to live,
but without you."

"lgnorant are those who say
to me that you are unknown."

"So many ordeals, were
heaped on me by this world."

"But in my heart,
the flames of love.."

"..have always been
burning for you, only for you."

"For you, l have
lived all these days."

"With my lips sealed."

"For you, l have lived all
these days, with my unshed tears."

"But in my heart, the flames of love,
haνe always been burning for you."

"Only for you."

Zaara Hayaat Khan's testimony..

..and photographs and documents
presented by her prove that..

..this man is not Rajesh Rathore
but that he is Veer Pratap Singh.

And to prevent disgracing the
honour of a Pakistani girl..

..Veer Pratap Singh
signed that affidavit.

Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh,
this court exonerates you.

Order. Order.
- Go, Veer Pratap Singh, go.

You have the right to return to your
country with your head held high.

And for the precious 22 years
of your life wasted in prison..

..the State of Pakistan and this
court asks for your forgiνeness.

lf you wish to speak, you may.

l, prisoner number 786..

..look through the bars of the jail.

l see days, months,
years change to eons.

From the soil of this land comes
the fragrance of my father's fields.

This burning sun reminds me
of my Maati's cool buttermilk.

This rain brings along with
it the swings of my seasons.

This winter fills me with the
warmth of the fires of my Lodi.

They say this is not your country
then why does it feel like mine?

He says l am not like him,
then why does he look like me?

l prisoner number 786 look
through the bars of the jail.

l see an angel who has
descended from heaven.

She calls herself
Saamiya and she calls me Veer.

She's a complete stranger,
but treats me as her own.

Hearing her truthful words,
l feel like living once more.

Hearing her promises and vows, l
feel like doing something more.

They say that she is
no one of mine then..

..why does she fight
the world for me?

He says that l'm not like her
then why does she look like me?

l, prisoner number 786, look
through the bars of the jail.

l see my Zaara wrapped in
the colours of my village.

ln making my dreams come true,
she has forgotten her own.

ln serving my people, she
has left behind her own.

Now, l feel like filling
her being with happiness.

l feel like living
another lifetime for her.

They say that my country
is not hers..

..then why is she staying
in my home?

He says that l'm not like her,
then why does she look like me?

l, prisoner number 786..

..look through the bars of the jail.

Thank you.

Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Saamiya.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

This was my last case.

l'm giving up law.

Because you've taught me
that l'm not fit for this work.

l always thought that a
country's progress is measured..

..by its judicial system.

But now, l understand that..

..the future of both
these countries is..

..in the hands of
youngsters like you.

Who do not measure humans as big
-small, man-woman, Hindu-Muslim..

Who don't rake up
bitter war memories of..

.. 1 947-1 965 and 1 999
on every pretext.

Who wish to address the future
with the truth and only the truth.

And there's no stopping a
country where truth prevails.

Thank you, Saamiya.

Thank you for teaching me
the value of truth and justice.

Your father would've been proud of
you, he would've been very proud.

l am.

Goodbye.

Veer had lost Zaara in Pakistan.
So, Veer and Zaara..

..will be joined on Pakistani soil.

Here, take this. Make
our Zaara yours foreνer.

You said, Veer and Zaara's
names can never be taken together.

Now, Veer and Zaara's names
haνe been joined together forever.

What Veer says is true.

You're an angel..
sent only for us by God.

Go ahead. Look, your
country awaits you.

Come, Zaara.

Let us go home.

"Gold like land, vast blue sky."

"Gold like land, vast blue sky,
every season is colourful."

"Such is my country."

"Lived l have for you.
Only for you."

"Distances between us
since ages.."

".. l have covered them.
Only for you."

"Lived l have for you.
Only for you."

"Distances between us
since ages.."

".. l have covered them.
Only for you."

"Only for you."
- "Only for you."
