'KANCHE'

September 1, 1939.

1st of September.

The day that the war animal
clenched its paw!

The Nazi dictator, Adolf Hitler's
atrocity, who got used

to the blood and flesh
of the civilisation.

Benito Mussolini's
totalitarianism, which marches

on corpse of the people.

The army notion of the
Emperor of Japan, Hirohito.

Blood stains are spreading
on the world map.

These will stay as ineradicable
stains in the pages of the history.

The death toll of Hitler started

with the slaying
of millions of Jews.

The murderous episode that started
for a small country, Poland

has flagged
off the Second World War.

One group was made of Japan,
Germany and Italy.

The rest of the countries
formed another group.

Such a mammoth war never
took place on the Earth

after life started on it.

Ten Crore soldiers
are fighting in the open ground.

The world is getting devastated
completely, economically

industrially and also technically.

Already the Earth
has become a skeleton.

The effect of war is being
seen on every human being.

Every country has shared
it's part of human sacrifice.

Only India alone

is being represented
by an army of 25 Lakh soldiers.

Now Benito Mussolini's era
should come to an end.

Germany's ally, Italy,
has also become its enemy.

To conquer Italy

the German forces are invading.

In support of Italy

along with the British forces,
75,000 Indian warriors

from the Royal Indian Army
are fighting.

Jackson will be here any moment.

Okay.

Battalion! Dismount!

Take it back inside.

I got it.
- Sir! Dhoopati Haribabu.

Sixteenth Battalion,
Royal Indian Army, sir!

All right.

Colonel Eswar Prasad.

He will be your commanding
officer from now on.

"I will buy the tinkling bangles
and colourful blouses."

"I will buy the tinkling bangles.."

It is a new camp.
That's why, they are exuberant.

Kanta Rao, listen to me and search
for some holes and burrows.

If the Germans invade,
you will have a chance to escape.

If you are so afraid,
why did you come till here, Dasu?

You should have gone back
to home from Burma.

That's my fate, man!
They asked me to get in. I did.

I thought it was a food cart.

How would I know
that it was a funeral van? - Sir!

If something happens to us, will
they give money to our families?

Forget about money.
If we die here

they won't even send
our dead bodies.

My wife will be totally lost.

That's what you think.

Chalam once said that,
'If it is a lady, immaterial of..'

Everybody listen to me.
I will tell you a story.

Okay! Once up on a time,
a man like our Dasu

Got, married.
- A man like me! Then continue..

He dressed handsomely
and went in to the bedroom.

Oh, man..
- Then he is not like me. It is me!

By then the bride was playing
with small pebbles in the room.

Of course.. Since Dasu is there,
she will play the whole night.

He went near her.
But there were no milk and fruits.

He said, "Hey, girl!
Where is the milk?"

She said, "While coming here,
I gave it to the cat, dear!" - Cat?

Then he asked,
"Where are the fruits, girl?"

She said, "While coming here,
I gave them to a kid, dear!"

He said, It's okay.
Forget about it all. You are there.

He said, "Come, give me a kiss
and caress me." - Oh!

She said, "While coming here,
I gave it to your brother, dear!"

It was not me.. Look there.

Him.. It was him!
- No, it was you.. - Jayasurya..

It was him. Yes, it was him.
- Dasu!

Here everyone is for himself only.
- Friend..

Eswar! What's wrong with you?

Why are you looking so serious?

May 10th, 1944.

'A sweet letter to Ms. Seeta'

'from Dhoopati Haribabu.'

'How are you?'

'From the place we are residing at'

'the border of Italy
is just a little distance away.'

'It's like the distance
between your house and mine.'

'It is a new camp.'

'So, trucks, tankers, et cetera
are just getting arranged.'

'Another important thing.'

'I met Eswar here.'

'He is our commanding officer.'

'I am remembering'

'all those old memories.'

'January 12th, 1936
Madras Cultural Club, Madras'

Come on!

Come on, boys and girls!

Now is the time for dance!

Dear friends! On the occasion
of our princess cutting

her birthday cake..
- Where is the matchbox?

Do you need a matchbox? Don't
you need a cigarette or cigar?

I am asking it for candles.
- Steward!

Come, light them. You are very
fortunate. - Cake is good, right?

Now our princess
will blow the candles.

You should not blow off lights
on a birthday! - What?

If possible, you should light some
lamps on a birthday, not..

Even lights have a feminine charm.

They glow, when taken care of.

But if you disrespect them,
they will burn you down.

Well said, Junior!

Even lights have a feminine charm.

But men are like a wick.

They always burn!

Please leave.
Come on, blow the candles.

Hey, Shakespeare!

Me?
- Can I at least cut the cake?

Or we shouldn't cut a cake
on birthday.. - Certainly.

It'll be cut to be shared by all,
right? - Well said..

Cutting is for sharing!

Dear, please cut it

and share it with us.
- Okay.

Mister!

For telling us a nice thing.

Happy returns of the day,
Ms. Seeta Devi!

Thank..
How do you know my name?

I am from Devarakonda. It's a part
of your Rachakonda province.

Is it?
- Yes.

How come here? - I study
at the University College.

It's a part time job.

We study there, too. But we
have never seen you before.

You will pay attention
towards those who see you.

I don't see you.

Well said, my junior..

Girls will pay attention
towards those who see them.

Not only in 1936

even in 2036

no one can understand these women!

By the way, what's the name
of our Shakespeare?

What's there in a name?

A rose is a rose..
- What is your name?

Hari, my Majesty!

Keep meeting us.

Shakespeare!

"Who is calling me
with a snap of a finger?"

"Who knows."

"Where are our steps taking us to?"

"Who knows."

Ms. Seeta talks very nicely.

"Who is calling me.."

Ms. Seeta! Do you know
the news of our place?

Did you hear that there was a
hailstorm? - You speak nicely, too.

"Where are our steps taking us to?
- Who knows."

"A silent unrest.."
- What happened?

"...is being heard by the heart."
- Car is not running.

I'll make it run.
- "A tune without lyrics.."

Do you know how to drive?
- I will show you.

"...has welcomed the friendship."

"Before knowing such things"

"Our story has started." - You
are driving. - Look at the front..

"Our story has started."
- Look at the front..

"Who is calling me
with a snap of a finger?"

"Who knows."

"Where are our steps taking us to?"

"Who knows."
- Move a bit to the right side..

Alas!
The right has changed to left.

"As a moment cannot
amount up to a day"

"the time has fled
after getting irritated."

"The whole world will bow
its head in humiliation"

"because we never care about it."

"Even though we are dreaming,
we are still awake."

"Who will come near us
to disturb us?"

"How does the morning arrives
and where does the darkness hide?"

"When does the sleep go to sleep"

"and when does start
actually starts?"

"Before knowing such things,
our story has started."

"Our story has started."

"Who is calling me
with a snap of a finger?"

"Who knows."

"Where are our steps taking us to?"

"Who knows."

Shakespeare!

Do you like me?

No, I love you.

What's the difference
between the two?

Suppose there is a rose.

If we like it, we pluck it.

If we love it, we water it.

Be ready.

We will get married.

"What's bubbling
on the lips like words?"

"It's sweet like the nectar
sprinkled by the flowers."

"Such musings are the universal
language during such moments.

"There is no dictionary
to explain their meaning.

"Like the chants
of an ongoing wedding.."

"Like the tunes of wedding band.."

"A silent unrest is being
heard by the heart."

"A tune without lyrics has
welcomed the friendship."

"Before knowing such things,
our story has started."

"Our story has started."

"Who is calling me
with a snap of a finger?"

"Who knows."

"Where are our steps taking us to?"

"Who knows."

The journey seems very new.
Right, Princess?

It is the same village
that we go every time.

But now it feels
like going to heaven.

But when I think about the village,
I get frightened.

We can't meet there like this.
- Even Ms. Seeta Devi has fears!

Why? Don't you fear them?

I fear them a lot.

In the prospect of getting
frightened sometime

I keep fearing a lot.

To the fearless person..
- For me?

...a present.

By your grace, I am travelling in
the first class for the first time.

And now this coat.

I am afraid thinking in future
what all needs to be changed.

As if you've changed a lot for me.

After the train stops,
I will get down before you.

Not only in 1936..
- Okay?

...even in 2036

lovebirds have to hide
from the world.

There she is..

Why you have become so thin, dear?

Why have you become
so thin, Granny?

Grandpa! - Haribabu!
- Don't address me

as if calling a puppy.
- It means, 'Grandma'!

It's the language of Lords'.
If she has to speak..

Why are you getting down
from rich people's compartment?

They allowed me to sit
as I am wearing this coat. - Oh!

Hey! You look like a rich man.

Did you complete your studies?

One book is left, Grandpa!
- What is it? - It is called love.

I will be well learned,
if I complete it. - Then study it.

Okay.
- Study it.

Yes..
- I am working on that, Grandpa.

Eswar!
- How are you, Princess?

Fine, Officer!

When did you come? How many
days will you be staying, Eswar?

Did you see? She calling
her brother by his name.

I like to call him by his name.

Eswar is not only my elder brother

but a friend, too.

What is wrong in it? Relationships
are meant to be respected

and names are meant to be called.

Who are you?

Sir!

He is my grandson.
He studies in the city.

He doesn't know the customs
of our village.

Hey! Greet your elders.
- Greetings. - You said it well.

Relationships are meant to be
respected and names to be called.

Konda!
- Sir?

My hair is overgrown.
- I will come at dawn, sir!

I will cut it and apply
oil to your body.

Eswar.
- Haribabu.

Attack!

Right.. Nice!

Come on! Attack him, Jack!

Take him down, Colonel!

We got three canons
positioned there.

What about the perimeters?

Anti-aircraft guns right there,
there and right over there.

Yes, Captain!
- Major!

If the Germans attack
all of a sudden

will you tell us the way to escape?

What?
- Shut your mouth!

I mean there are bunkers
and trenches.

It will be good to be alive.

Well done.. - We are expecting our
tanks to arrive in two days' time.

That's enough. - You still need
to dig trenches over there.

Well done!
The champion!

Let us hear it for Eswar!

For the seventh time in a row.

Show!

You there!
Captain Hari!

Let's see if you can
take on your commandant.

Come on, men.

Very nice!

Even though I killed many people
on the battleground

I never felt like it.

The anger that I couldn't kill you

will be quenched today!

We are from the same place.
Let's come to an agreement.

If I die

you've to take my dead body
to our village.

If you die,
I will carry your corpse.

If one us carry the dead body
of the other

our village will be united.

Go, take cover!

Tanks..

Move, fast..

Soldiers! Go to shells.

Soldiers, move! Come on..

Soldiers!

This way!
- Quick.. Move ahead!

Roger that. General's here!
- Give me that.

Get me the air marshal now!

Dive in, now..

Mr. Singh, save us.

Go, and get away.
- You..

Four hours?

I don't have god damn four hours!

I need air cover now!

Come on, move!

Soldiers, move!

The whole German population
is here to kill me.

Sir! We are surrounded
on all sides.

We're severely outnumbered.
We can't hold them back any longer.

Point 64!

Use the uphill cannons.

I'll try to send
a few of my men, sir.

Very good.

Get me Hari and his men.

Get over here!

Get over here, now!

I need men!

Captain Hari, uphill..

You!

I am sorry, General!
Our men weren't able to reach it.

We are losing more and more
men out there, General!

The war is over.
- Shall we surrender?

Right, Major.

Sargent..

Hail Hitler!
- Hail victory!

They surrendered.
- It can't be.

What?
- Come on, let's go.

Shit!
- Come on!

Move on, Captain!

We have surrendered
and we are prisoners of war.

Under the Geneva Convention

you must respect my
men and my officers.

Respect for surrendered soldiers?

Respect is something, earned.

I will not divulge any
information what so ever.

Fear made you surrender
and it make you talk.

You can skin us alive,
but we won't talk.

You have your loyalty,
we have our ways.

You are dreaming.
- Oh, really?

Something is not right here.

Why are they taking positions?

Go.. Go to the height.

Hail Lord Hanuman..
- Hey!

Come on, buddy!
Let's get away.

Looks like something is wrong.

That's General Weinstein.
They call him 'The Fox'.

No!

What's going on?

I made a great mistake.
- Take the Indian army.

By the blessings of our mothers
we are still alive, buddy!

Come on, buddy!
Let's get away.

We have to save them.

It's too dangerous.

No, Captain.
We can't go out there.

We cannot leave our
officers to the Germans.

Why do you want to enter
the fray knowingly?

Buddy, I can't do it.

I will leave.
- Go! You will go alone.

We have to save them.

How? How are you going
to do that? We are just five.

Let's first follow them
and find a way.

Yes, you're right. Let's do it.
- Okay, Captain!

Let's go. - What is okay, man?
It's okay for you, but not for me.

Eswar is from your
native place, right?

Will he come to rescue,
if somebody abducts you?

He won't, buddy.

At least we will live, buddy.
Come on, buddy!

After killing Mahishasura

out of the 18 forms
of Goddess Mother

seventeen forms went
to the heavens.

The remaining one form
is of Goddess Durga.

That Goddess

has incarnated in different
forms in different villages.

Nookalamma, Ankaalamma

Pochamma, Maisamma and so on.

Now our village deity
is Sarelamma.

She liked the send-off present
given by Her elder brother.

That's why, She is named so.

Now who is that brother?

None other than
Lord Sriman Narayana.

Lord, by the name of Tirupayya

goes to each part of the
village with pomp.

After collecting all things
needed by His little sister

He gives them in the form of a send
off present once in every 12 years.

Come what sorrow can

it cannot countervail
the exchange of joy

that one short minute
gives me in her sight.

What is this madness?

It has been four days
since we came back.

But we didn't meet at all.
It's not good, right?

Yes. As if, I am very happy.

Believe me,
I feel restless without you.

I want to say something..
- Is it?

This time,
every time that we are apart

write all the thoughts as letters.

Is it enough to write letters?

Or some whispers in the ear..

Yu are blushing, my Highness!

You have attained
a marriageable age.

Shall we get married after the
village festival?

They are thinking the same thing
at my house, too.

They want me to get married
after the village festival.

Did they accept so easily?
- Not with you

but with my uncle's son.

How is that? - My grandfather
is standing outside.

Go and ask him.

Traditions

festivals and procedures.

All are for the village's unity.

Now tell me

what would the people
from different caste give?

We Sahukars have 20 families.

From our side 100 kgs butter,
25 tins of churned oil

and 10 baskets of jaggery
will be offered.

Our caste people
have 100 plots of land.

Among it, rice from five plots
will be given to the festival.

We need to decorate Sarelamma
and Tirupayya with ornaments.

If you bear the expenses

we will make them
without making charges.

We will weave all the saris
needed for the Goddess.

We will stitch all the mats
and baskets that are needed.

We will give slippers to the
Goddess from our side, sir!

Everything is fine

but don't kill one another
like last year's festival.

In last year's festival,
Veeri cut off my father's hand.

This time, I will cut his leg.

Did you remember?
- Won't I.

He reminded you, you fool!

Why did Veeri cut your
father's hand?

It was because he
said that the chariot

has to first come into our area!

Forget about God!

It is human beings
who have to be valued.

This time the chariot
has to start from our street!

What are you talking?

The chariot has to start moving
from our street

and the send-off present will come
from the Divan's house.

This is the tradition
of this village.

Do you want to change it?
- Yes, I will change it!

I will change it.
And why not?

Do you want the monopoly
over the God, too?

Just for asking this,
you people killed my dad.

I will not accept it.

I don't care about what you think.

But the chariot has to start
moving from our street only.

Don't try to create conflict
in the village.

Sir, he is trying to stop
the festival.

Sir, we have to listen
to Munuswamy, too.

Will the God deny if asked
to go through his street?

Our tradition will get spoiled,
if we fight over it.

Everything is for our good, right?

Why can't we change it?

Then why should the chariot
start from their street?

Are not we human beings
or don't we have streets?

If that's the case,
aren't we better equipped?

We have 100 houses.

Even if you are well off,
our surnames are more respected!

Hey!

Don't talk about surnames.

You people are cowardly braggarts.

As if the God does not
have any shelter!

Hey, Munuswamy!

It seems you said the same thing
on the shore, too.

I will cut you down!

I will see your end!
- I will show you what I am!

Our caste will take care of this.
- I'll kill you! - Come on, guys!

I am afraid, Hari!

Hey, Hari!

When did you come
from Chennapatnam..

Oh, no! Isn't she Ms. Seeta?

What is this?

Did you make a pact?

You people are naughty!

Is it that thing?

Yes. It's that..

You have to help us, Janardhan!
- Forget about me.

With your relation

you have given a lot of task
to be done by the village.

Let it happen!
Get married soon!

"Get married soon.."

We will not tolerate this..
- Please be patient!

Please calm down!

Because of these quarrels

we lost so many of our
kith and kin last time.

If we stay united

God will take care of us.
- Stop your foolishness. Stop it!

I will kill you people!
- What do you mean?

If they fight like this,
what will happen, sir?

Existence won't come so easily.

If this quarrel
becomes a hurricane..

If some heads roll down..

If we stand beside the dead

we will become the
people's leaders.

What do you think about
the power of position?

It's the total authority
over clashes.

Stop it!

I am telling you people!

This time from the side
of the Landlord

my grandson will take my position.

From now on,
his word is law.

This marriage has to happen.

But it has to be with me.
- How?

I don't know.

But I swear!

I will marry you at your home
and take you to my home.

The traditions are there
to be followed

not to fight with each other.
As it was happening every time

it will be same this time.
- I am afraid, Hari!

I will talk to Eswar.

He is the only one
who can understand us.

I will subdue Eswar.

He is my
would be brother-in-law, right?

Unlike the last time's festival

no one will fight with the other.
This time the festivities

should be extravagant!

"The village has become a stream"

"and it has shattered
its boundaries."

"It has united the fort
and the locality."

"The village has become a stream"

"and it has shattered
its boundaries."

"It has united the fort
and the locality."

"In the midst of the collision
of band and trumpets"

"claps and rhythms"

"the unison is increasing."

"He is the one who rules
these seven worlds."

"Come with pomp and show
in our streets today."

"The rich and the poor
should become one here."

"The words from unwanted people
should not matter at all."

"Hey.."

"Hey.."

"While taking the offerings
to Your sibling"

"did You come all the way
to my house, Lord?"

"Oh, the husband of Mahalakshmi!
What can we give you?

"What we have
is what you gave us."

"What did the wheel
of the moving chariot say?

"Sickles and plough are used
to worship the land."

"No matter what,
all everyone is doing"

"is serving the Lord."

"Bless this soil of ours"

"not our castes."

"This event belongs to everyone"

"All the people
are like our relatives."

"He is the one who rules
these seven worlds."

"Come with pomp and show
in our streets today."

"The rich and the poor
should become one here."

"The words from unwanted people
should not matter at all."

"Even those mountains"

"will take care of us
as our guardians."

"Dance with vigour!"

"Dance away!"

"During this joyous celebration"

"raindrops resembling diamonds
should shower from the heavens."

"We should celebrate this festival"

"without paying any attention
to caste differences."

"Our happiness should
spread to miles"

"as a symbol of our unity."

"Because of this event"

"all other villages
will follow us."

"He is the one who rules
these seven worlds."

"Come with pomp and show
in our streets today."

"The rich and the poor
should become one here."

"The words from unwanted people
should not matter at all."

Ma'am, please give me some water.

Will you drink

water from our house, ma'am?
- Not only water

if you allow me,
I will reside in your house.

Shall I?

Mother, she is Ms. Seeta.

I met her at the station.

I know her, Son.

How?
- I gave you your first bath.

What do you mean?

I helped your mother
in her delivery.

Later I cleaned you
for the first time.

Wait..
I will bring you water.

What are you looking at?
As soon as I was born

asked my mother about you.
What a coincidence!

I met you the day you were born..
- As if!

Listen to me..

Your brother likes me a lot.
He wants me to enlist in the army.

Go.. You will look great
in uniform. But remember

that you should be in a
better position than Eswar.

Only then will I be happy.

Better position?
You just wait and watch.

One day,
Eswar will salute me saying

'Dhoopati Haribabu, I salute you!'.

If they drive all night,
they'll reach this...

That must be the transfer point.

We have to reach the railway lines
before the Germans.

That's only when we
can plan an ambush.

What does ambush mean?
- A sudden strike.

We have to get there before
the Germans and hide.

It would not be an ambush,
it's suicide.

To get there fast,
we have to cross this mountain.

This mountain?
Do we have to scale it?

Across this mountain
there's a village named Muskita.

We may get vehicles there.
Let's go.

Srinivas Rao said,
'I offered a piece to burn'

'for world's fire'.
Similarly, you are sacrificing me.

Hey, cook.. - Right, Dasu.
Come on! We're losing time!

That's what I am saying!
Time is over. Stop!

They say, unmarried ones
should join sainthood or army.

I thought that sainthood
is worthless.

It seems that I will turn
into ash here. It's my fate.

Let's go!

I am starving to death.
Give me something to eat, buddy!

What now?
- I need to eat! Hey, cook..

Rats are running in my stomach!
- Bats?

No, I meant rats!

Captain?
- Rats are running in his stomach.

How is that possible?
Rats?

In your stomach?
Yes, I will fix it.

Eat this.
- I am not a buffalo to eat this.

Come on..

Thank God, they didn't press
the trigger. I could have died!

Hey..

Oh, Goddess Annapoorna!

You are in all continents,
not just in Kashi.

We thought we'll starve to death.
We have some bread here.

It's all right..
It's his granddaughter.

She is his granddaughter.

She is pretty!

Buddy! If we die without enjoyment

they'll throw us out from heaven.

I don't think that they'll mind.
Just ask them.

I don't think you'll be killed
by a German, Dasu.

I'll kill you before them.

Okay?

There are Germans outside.
Can you please help us?

I just wanted to eat.

What a waste!
It seems that I am going to die.

I thought women
are different in every country.

But mothers are same
all over the world.

Ma'am, forgive me for my mistake!

Yes. - Once it gets dark,
he can show us the way.

A German doctor loved and married
a Jew girl. They have a daughter.

They say, she has bad blood.

Hitler's army is in search
of her to kill her.

Buddy, Srinivasa Rao said..

'It can be any nation, the entire
mankind is filled with slavery.'

It's 20th century.
In Germany, all are educated.

Still they are following
Hitler's orders.

Awesome!

Shall I cut your nails, sir?
- Hello, Officer!

What is it? Are you watching
the game or girls?

I never downgrade my position.

A barber shouldn't
forget his place.

His place is always
at his master's feet.

Are you talking about Hari?
Just ask whatever you want to.

It's not a war to hide
our motives, it's love.

How can you fall for him?
Do you know who he is?

He's a man and I am a girl.

What else anyone needs to love?
- Why is he so special?

He's educated, handsome
and he makes me laugh.

He assured me that he'll
take good care of me.

What else do need in a man?
- Blood.

Don't you mind his race? If you
become their daughter-in-law

what about our prestige?

You can become son-in-law of such
a family. Then we'll be even.

You are my sister.

If you were my brother,
I would have slapped you.

You are elder brother.
If you were younger than me

I would have slapped you and asked
how could you think that way.

Mr. Eswar!
Come on! Let's have a match!

Hand to hand combat!
There's nothing to lose, come on!

Hey, are you crazy
to fight with him? - Hari!

Why are you inviting trouble?
- He has to conduct my wedding.

I have to impress him.
- Sir, he doesn't know our customs.

Let them play, Konda.
They are young boys. Leave them.

It's festival.

No matter who wins among
you two, I'll be the winner.

Go.

Leave me, Mr. Eswar!

I'll die.
- You have to die.

How could you think that I'll
allow you to marry my sister?

Look at my sister
for the last time.

Forget her

and you will live.

Is there any alternate route?

Once we cross the church

and go four streets across

we will reach point 5716.

Oh, Lord Hanuman! Help..

Hail Hitler.

There are fifteen soldiers.

We fell out of the frying pan
and into the fire.

Where are they?

Hail Muller!
- Hail victory!

I am here to kill my enemies.

It's smiling at me.

Does it have German blood?

Blood is same for everybody.

That's a spoilt blood.
- How?

She is an illegitimate kid.

She shouldn't address
a German as her father.

Kill her.

Kill Her.

As a doctor you must have
helped during her birth.

Now slit her throat.

Take this.

It was a willing mistake.

You have to correct it even
if it pains you. Come on.

Kill it!

Please, Muller.

Leave her alone.

We will go away from here.

Poor little child!

I beg you.
- Kill it!

This is not our problem.

Let's get out of here.

Captain Hari!

You have to kill it!

Did you hear me?

Buddy, what are you going to do?
- It isn't our problem.

Captain!
Captain, listen to me.

Damn it! What are you doing?

Muller, come here!

I don't know where to go.

I don't know how to accomplish it.

But we have to go.

We have to live.

Without the fear of death
we have to survive at least a day.

We will accompany you.
Please take us with you.

He is still saying the same thing.

He wants us to take him with us.

Tell him, we can't help him.

We have a mission to complete.

Please, show some sympathy.

There are women and a small baby.

He says they have lost everyone.
They got nowhere else to go.

I understand, Eddy,
but I am helpless. - Buddy.

There's nothing I can do.
- The guy who ran away..

Was he Hitler?

No, he is not.
He very short in height.

What?
Is a short heighted man

terrorising the world?

One has to fear for their life.

They are saying that we were
living a borrowed life.

Is it a sin to be born as Jew?

Please protect us

Hari, tell them, 'I can't help'.

Sir, we have nowhere else to go.
- Captain

We got to take them with us.

Hari, we can't take them.
We are soldiers.

We are on a mission.

A soldier is the one
who saves lives.

They could put us in danger.

What if the baker's girl
had thought the same?

She was in danger, too

We can't take them.
I can't allow this.

Please help us to survive.

Please take us with you.

Captain, let us drop them
at a safe point.

All right,
this is your decision, Hari.

You are still the same, buddy.

Hey, are you waiting
for the arrival of God

or to see your girl, Seeta,
who is following the chariot?

Silly.
- What? Me?

You are the first one
to say that about me.

It's not your Seeta,
but her brother's sister.

Can you see her brother's
angry gaze?

He is giving death glares to you.

Poor thing!
You need a miracle to meet her.

Janardhan, aren't you there for me?
- What?

Did you not notice her
brother's aggressive look?

I don't have any ideas
to interfere in this matter.

Let me do my venerations.

Janardhan.
- I am not Janardhan Sasthri.

I am John Paul Shastri.

John Paul, alias the
caretaker of the world

alias Lord Krishna

why don't you go and fix our
wedding, Brother-in-law? - What?

Of course!

Seeta, this way.
Take Goddess's present inside.

Ma'am, this is the marriage device.

It is believed that if a girl
immerses it in the temple tank

will get married soon.

Go, dear.
- Seeta.

I'll come along with you.

No, you are in the midst
of a veneration.

You should remain here.

Let her go, sir.
- I'll accompany her.

Let's go. - Married women
shouldn't accompany her.

You might get married again.

Oh, no! I won't accompany her.

Please go, dear.
- Go, dear.

Okay.
- You will get a good husband.

Please listen to me
and go back to Chennapatnam.

I will not,
what will they do?

They will kill you.

If anyone lays hands on me,
I will kill them.

I am not a weakling.

Anyone can hit.

Can't I kill?

Will you kill my brother?
My brother..

My brother loves me more than
you do. Do you know that?

It's not that..
- Shut up.

I thought he would understand me

but he said he will kill you.

I thought of sharing
my pain with you

but you want to kill him.

I was mistaken.
What I said was wrong.

Ms. Seeta,

if needed, I will give up
my life willingly for Eswar.

Okay?
I swear.

Grandpa.
- Yes?

Seeta should be married. There's
no need of an auspicious moment.

Just a nuptial chain is enough.
- What happened?

If your brother kills me

I don't mind losing my life.

But if you stop talking to me

what is the use
of living like this?

Fine, Hari.

This kind of wedding
has never happened in this town.

Anything untoward may happen,
I am so scared.

If the village unites,
there will be no fights.

Someone has to come forward, right?

How good it will be, if we kiss?

Our village will be good,
if we both marry.

Trust me.

I will marry you in your home

and bring you to my home.

From where did you get
such courage?

From you.

If our countrymen are fighting
against the Britishers

it's neither because of the anger

nor because of patriotism

but because of the hot-headedness.

They want to rule themselves.

For these low caste people

liking our girls is similar to it.

It's not love

but question to our authority.

If we kill Kondaiah's grandson

then our Seeta will grieve.

The power we have over
this place will also vanish.

I'll cut off his leg..
- Eswar.

Between each individual there
is an invisible aura of enmity.

We should be wary of it.

We should overcome it
and if possible, kill that enmity.

Each group dislikes the other.

He was killed
because he had an affair.

Fight over land and water.

Fight over race and community.

Fight over language
and even dialects.

If we instigate this
demon of regionalism

it will raze the whole
village down.

That same inferno will light
Kondaiah's grandson's pyre.

All we need to do

is to rub the flint stones together

and at the end only
ashes will be left.

"In search of which light"

"is this inferno engulfing
everyone?"

"What peace are these"

"gleaming swords searching for?"

"For the protection of which crop
are these fences?"

"Whose betterment
is this bloodshed for?"

"Whose friendship
is this raging animosity for?"

"These fiery sparks
won't quench any thirst."

"This is a gamble
where life is at stake."

"It never awards anyone
with victory."

"They crave for victory
in death. It's amusing."

"People are becoming
incarnation of death."

"When the differences are set aside
everyone lives happily together."

"But with no peace.."

This side is ours. - Tie it!
- If anyone crosses the barrier

they will die!
- How dare you!

"The peace is completely lost."

"Has the Earth divided itself
because of these boundaries?"

Seeta!

An auspicious time has been
fixed for your wedding.

Get ready.

I want to see you smoking.
- What?

I want to see you smoking.
- I don't like smoking.

You don't even smoke,
if you don't like it.

However, you want
me to get married.

Am I not even worth
that cigarette to you?

Seeta!

By remodelling your
mother's jewelleries

your grandfather
has made your nuptial chain.

Come and have a look at it.
- Go.

It's not a mere chain,
it's our mother's blessings.

It's fine, if my beloved accepts me
with a piece of nuptial thread.

Mother is not a gold
ornament, Eswar.

It's love and affection.

After all, your are a girl.

Keep your mouth shut
and do what I say.

What is the meaning
of after all, Grandson?

It means low class..

Okay.

Low class..

Please make her understand.

After all, I am a woman.

How can I tell her, dear?

I need to keep my mouth shut.

Is your name Haribabu?
- Yes.

Attack!

Who are you?
Where do you belong to?

"A hunter shot an arrow
towards a pair of birds."

"One of them fell dead."

"The pain it went
through while dying"

"transformed a hunter into a sage."

"Where did this poisonous
seed come from?"

"It's the source of sorrow!"

"This is a gamble
where life is at stake."

"It never awards anyone
with victory."

"They crave for victory
in death. It's amusing."

"People are becoming
incarnation of death."

Please, don't.
- Who are you?

Get lost.

Buddy, it's very nice.
Did you see?

Twenty corpses in one carrier.

Just humour me.

What are we going for
and what do we ned from them?

Good, buddy..
- Dasu.

My hometown has 500 houses.

When I was a boy,
it seemed very large to me.

When I was five,
my grandfather

carried me on his shoulders

and took me to the town
to watch a drama.

I saw the town for the first time

and thought,
'Oh, God!'

'Will there be any bigger
city in the world?'

When I went to Chennapatnam
for higher studies

then I learnt the reality
that our nation measures

about 2000 kms from North to south

and 2500 kms from East to west.

Dasu, then I realised

that there are many other
countries besides ours.

This world measures up to
19 Crore 70 Lakh sq. mile.

And the sun

is 13 lakh times bigger
than the Earth.

The Earth and the other planets

keep revolving around the sun.

All this together forms
a small solar family.

In this galaxy

each star is a solar family.

Dasu, in this vast universe,
there are crores of living beings.

Who are we
and what are our bonds and enmity?

Mine, yours, boundaries,
wars, et cetera!

What's all this?

We are like a tiny
dew drop on a bud.

It's the same for everyone.

It's beyond our understanding.

Right, Mr. Bhaskar Rao?

That's all about it.
- What, Mr. Bhaskar Rao?

He used to live behind my house.

He used to keep chatting with me.

Oh.
- He looks like this man.

That guy looks like Mr. Subba Rao.

She looks like Ms. Kamala.

She looks like my aunt's daughter,
Suryakala.

Suryakala, come here..

Why are you smiling, dear?

She says she is going
to see her dad.

So, that's the reason
you are smiling.

What she is wondering
is, do you have a dad?

Yes, I do.

There.
- Wow.

He is there.

She is saying you
can have her dad, too.

Buddy, why is she crying?

What happened?

They killed her father.

She lied to the kid.

Tears are above any language.

What's the baby's name?

Thekwa.

Thekwa?

What does it mean?
- I don't know.

It means hope.

Hope.
- Hope.

'A sweet letter to Ms. Seeta'

'from Dhoopati Haribabu.'

'Many a travels,
many an acquaintance.'

'I saw a small baby here.'

'Do you the name of the baby?
Thekwa.'

'It means hope.'

'Here everyone from a small kid
to an old man have same hope.'

'It's to watch
the sunrise tomorrow.'

They are enlisting people
for the military in our village

They have asked me to join, too.
- That's good.

What do you mean? You want
me to join the English guys.

It's not Englishmen
you are joining for.

It's for the nation
and its citizens.

We have a nation. That's why
we are asking for freedom.

If there are no soldiers

nation will not exist.
- You are right.

'Not just there'

'but even in this place,
I came to know'

'that there is love even in war.'

'Anywhere in this world,
love is always like a war.'

"Let's believe that it's true."

"Believe in your heart."

"This world is for us."

"Let's believe that it's true."

"The dreams that we have"

"treasured in our eyes"

"will never melt away."

"Let our past lives"

"and future births"

"be like our present one."

"Let us be together forever."

"Let's believe that it's true."

"Let's believe that it's true."

"In a timeless place"

"where there is no barrier"

"let's nurture"

"our love together."

"Our love.."

"Let's believe that it's true."

"Let's believe that it's true."

Buddy, isn't that symbol present
in our nation's temples?

That's Swastika, it is ours.

It explains the four directions
of the world

and also that they
belong to everyone.

This symbol says that no one
can rule the four directions.

Oh, does this symbol
carry such a meaning?

Swastika means well-being.

Without knowing the meaning,
Hitler is killing the innocents.

Let's go.. Come on!

Calm the kids..

Move.. Fast!

Eswar!

Move.. Fast!

Sad, we lost our Officer Jack.

He was a damn good soldier.

What exactly are you doing
with all these civilians?

We had to bring them
along with us, sir.

We didn't have an option.

And the German?
- I trust him, sir.

We will give sometime for, Eswar.

And when he is well enough..
- Sir. - ...we shall move.

Now go, get some rest.
- Yes, sir.

There is a way out.

Do you see this river?

If we just cross..

This is going to hurt.

It's okay.

You gave me the gun
I am not used to.

I was lucky to get my
hands on that rock.

Otherwise, I would have been dead
and buried six feet under.

Didn't your Srinivas Rao
say anything about it?

'Let bygones be bygones.
Nothing is ours.'

Why wouldn't he?
He might have said so.

Melissa.

Hey!
- Wow, is this a cierge?

Love letter.

Seeta.
- Seeta.

My wife.

Wedding in a rich family.

Why are you conducting
it so haphazardly?

Sir, Konda is here.

It's not right on your
part to arrive late

for the wedding
of my granddaughter.

My grandson is missing, sir.

I searched all over the place.

People are saying so many things.

I am scared, sir.
- Nothing would have happened.

The clashes must have scared him.
So, he must have run away.

If he was scared

I wouldn't have been worried, sir.

But he isn't scared.

That's my fear, sir.
- Konda.

Sufferings and responsibilities
should be treated equally.

Your music has finalised
countless weddings

and witnessed plenty
of deaths, too.

Go, start with your work.

Take the bridegroom's party
to the temple.

Break the coconut and then
bring them here. - Okay.

Bridegroom's folks have arrived.

Now you have no choice.
Get ready.

We are just
baby-making machines for them.

We are there just to procreate
and produce heirs.

We should accept it as an honour
and continue living.

What can we do?
It's our fate.

I know it is difficult to do so.

But you have to just
get used to it.

Why shed tears on this
auspicious wedding day?

To stop my tears on my wedding day

isn't as easy as stopping me from
blowing candles on my birthday.

Is that my grandpa
playing the music?

Shakespeare.

Please take me away with you.

If we separate,
bad days will befall our village.

But if we elope,
it will be an insult to our love.

We should let either
of the things happen.

Come on.

Hey!

I have promised her
that I will marry her in this house

and bring her to our home, Grandpa.

"For a lady Hitler,
how did she lose her heart"

"in this forsaken place?"

"If they see us"

"they will beat us black and blue."

My God!
- Let's go.. Come on.

Come on, hide.

Move.

Move..

Stay calm..

Captain Hari, we need to get
out of there. This is the only way.

But there is a German supply camp.

I need you to do reconnaissance
and get me the details. Be safe.

Soldiers,
you should stay with them.

Let's go.

Sir, this is the base

and these are the waters.

There is a tank and nearly
seventy soldiers.

There are four boats here
and two bunkers.

If we can take a tank
and attack those bunkers

They can get away on the boats.
- I used to be a tank commander.

Just get me into that tank

and I will blow this crowd
to smithereens.

This is not the way to do this.

You cannot attack blindly.

We need a real plan.

You are imagining things
and terrifying others.

We should be brave enough to live.

We have to keep on marching.

Sir, this...
- This is not our home town.

We cannot use females
as scapegoats and get away.

There are only seven of us.
- That's enough!

We are there.

This battle is not for me,
you or for the country, Eswar.

This is for the future.

For that little baby.

Hope.

Do you know something? That little
baby is also fighting a battle.

It should be crying for milk,
but is crying for dear life.

That baby is not even
aware of this world.

So, will you kill it?

Shall it be killed
in the name of caste?

This is also similar to our
home town issues.

What happened there
should not be repeated here.

Hey, Kondaiah!

Won't you allow the others
to live either? Stop.

They have already erected a
barrier. What will happen now?

My dear Hari!

This is your daughter-in-law.

What happened to your
intellect, Kondaiah?

They have done wrong. Instead
of hitting them with a shoe

why are you supporting them?

The mistake is in
our intellect, man.

Not in their hearts.

I don't feel anything is wrong.

They..

They love each other, my dear.

It's all over..

A disaster has befallen
our village.

There is no discipline.

They will marry for love.

They will marry
according to their wishes.

They will marry irrespective
of their caste.

If our house is impure,
we have to cleanse it.

Now we have to cleanse our town.

I know about you.

You are a parasite living
on Panchayat litigations.

Hey, how dare you touch him!

Sir, people like him
don't belong to anyone.

They are wolves in men's clothing.

Hari.

How dare you elope
with my sister in my absence?

I came when you were there.

You weren't present when
I tied the nuptial chain.

One should be lucky to witness
his sister's wedding.

A wedding cannot happen
by just tying the nuptial chain.

If you bless us,
will it be a marriage?

Marriage is a to vow

to stay with each other
through thick and thin.

That has already happened to us.

Now I just tied the nuptial chain
and brought her home.

I'll break the nuptial chain
and take away my sister. - No.

Don't kill Hari.

We may have differences,
but we are all united.

If you want, kill me.

Please take your sister away..

I am finding a solution.

We have to find a solution
using my intellect.

I'll break your skull.

From where did you get

such bravery?
- Eswar.

I will ask you something,
will you answer me?

In this village the occasion
when God gifts his sister

with send-off presents
is celebrated as a festival.

You people carry
that present yourself.

Why shouldn't your sister
live in such a village?

I am asking you my
send off present.

Brother.

Please give me my love.

Will you?

What you are for asking
is not love, but prestige!

Aren't you aware of his caste,
creed and status?

No caste is lowly.

A caste is based
on division of labour.

Those who traded, became Kamma
and those who farmed, became Kapu.

A potter's pot, a washer man's
washing stone, a goldsmith's oven

and a weaver's spinning wheel.

They don't live for themselves.

They live for others.

If you are asked,
who are you

you tell them your profession

and not your caste.

Anyone who asks such
questions is not a human.

Dear, even though he is young

he has stated something profound.

Please be generous, my dear.

Hey, move..
- Father-in-law! - Grandpa!

Hari!

Hari.

Eswar..

Eswar.

Hari!

Hari, don't!

No..

Eswar.

I beg of you.

Please stop it!

Eswar!

Hari!

Seeta!

Hari!
- Seeta.

Seeta..

Seeta!

Shakespeare.

Why are you crying

on this auspicious
wedding day?

Seeta!
- If you cry

they will be the victors.

Seeta..

We have finally won, right?
- Seeta..

'The distance between
two banks is little.'

'But there are hundreds of enemies
and cannons in between.'

'That's okay.'

'If you love your life
then you will fear death.'

'But even death is scared of those'

'who want others to live.
Let's see.'

'Sincerely, Dhoopati Haribabu.'

Buddy.

I used to believe otherwise.

But if I had fled,
I would have lost a lot.

Just to kill an young girl, a whole
country's army is on the move.

Before I die,
even if I kill one of them

it will be like worshipping
my mother.

I like you, Dasu.

Until now, you were in the army.

But now you have
become a true soldier.

It's getting dark.
Let's go!

Let's attack them.

Yes, Captain.

We will stick to the plan.

Just kill each and every
bastard out there

and get to the boats.
- Hari.

You could have abandoned me.

But you came to save me.

Why?

For my Seeta.

Just in jest when I said that I
will kill you, she slapped me.

"Unknown to you, friend."

She was so fond of you.

For her sake.

"Let's bond in a relationship."

"I am not alone, you are with me."
- Be careful.

"This is my breath."

"I will believe in you."

"Does hatred govern a country?"

"Does hatred govern a country?"

"Does heaven have divisions?"

"If so, do humans live there?"

"Oh, Earth! Did you question them?"

"Oh, time! Did you see them?"

"War is synonymous to end."

"Let's say no to it and break"

"all the barriers.
This is our vow."

"Love withstood the power
of divine weapons."

"Love withstood the power
of divine weapons."

"Is there any weapon
to increase longevity?"

"The demons need to change
their dogmatism."

"Life is as fast as the beat
of vulture's wings."

"There's nothing to achieve.
Enmity is of no use."

"No one offers help to others."

"Feeding the baby,

"let's start it this moment."

"Let's fight the ghosts of war
courageously."

"Come, let's march."

"War is synonymous to end."

"Let's say no to it and break"

"all the barriers.
This is our vow."

Eswar!

Move!

"This wonderful world
belongs to everyone."

"Do only a few have the right
to enjoy it?"

"If you love your land,
you will forget your rivalries."

"We should remember the
relationship between humans."

Go. - "For what good
is this fight for?"

"My friend, don't you know this?"

"For whose benefit
is this deadly votive ritual?"

"When will you reach to me?"

"These flags are separating us."
- Hari.

"Let's bow before the
beauty of life."

"We will consider it
as our victory."

Buddy, come on.

Hari, don't go!

Hari..

I'll come home after going
to village. - Village? - Go home.

Sir.

I need to dig a grave.
Will you help me?

Will you help me?

Grave?

What happened to my Hari?

Hari!

I read all these letters, sir.

I felt like washing Hari's feet

and marrying my sister to him.

Where are they?

They are not here.

They couldn't live together
in this world.

They are at least together
in death.

My sister passed away.

I thought it was
because of loving him.

But Hari

saved me

by sacrificing his life.

Hari was a great son.

A good grandson.

A great lover.

A great soldier.

Above all

which I didn't recognise

he was a great friend.

Dhoopati Haribabu..

Salute!

You just wait and watch.

One day,
Eswar will salute me saying

'Dhoopati Haribabu, I salute you!'.

Remove this fence.

This is the order of the landlord.

I am ordering you on his behalf.

Remove it!

Our village used to be united

now it has been smashed
to smithereens.

People should live together

not fettered to barriers.

Remove the barriers.

Remove it!

How good it will be, if we kiss?

Our village will be good,
if we both marry.

Mister.

Do you like me?

No, I love you.

"This wonderful world
belongs to everyone."

"Do only a few have the right

"If you love your land,
