All language subtitles for Swatantra Veer Savarkar (2024)_track3_[eng]

Stay back.

My son.

Shoot her!

Cover your face.

Cover your face, everyone.

After today,
no one will come near me.

Not even my dead body.

Even if I cry,
scream, shout or go berserk,

everyone will stay away.

-Father.
-Stop.

Stay away.

Babarao, they are your children now.

You'll gain nothing from
this revolution, Vinayak.

The British are too powerful.

I am very concerned about you, son.

They are your responsibility now.

Give me a hug, son.

Son, give me water.

Water...

Come on. Out.

Come on.

All those infected by the plague
will be thrown into the pit.

Come on. Out.

Hey, come.

Gondya has come.

Get on with it.

Is it wrong
to fight for our people, Mother?

The Chapekar Brothers were hanged?

But I pledge before you, Mother:

I will start an armed revolution
like Shivaji Maharaj,

and chase the enemy away.

Or die fighting
like the Chapekar brothers.

One who dies killing his enemies,
is a warrior.

Long live...Revolution!

Bhagat, where did it all begin?

I read a book.

Book?

'The Independence Struggle of 1857.'

By whom?

Who wrote the book?

Vinayak...

Damodar...

Savarkar.

They are not our role models.

He is our role model.

"He who utters His name..."

Like him, we must arm ourselves,
to fight the British.

"Is triumphant!"

You are here to join
the 'Mitra Mela', right?

Starting today,
you will all be trained in self-defence.

Joining the 'Mitra Mela'
includes a ritual.

Are you aware?

Anyone carrying a weapon,

will keep it here.

Bravo.

Now these Britishers
are going to die.

He's doing it again.
Will he go or not?

Now you don't start.

What were you
doing for so long inside?

We've to be back by evening.

Grieving the death of my queen.

Don't utter any
of this in front of him.

And don't interrupt your elders.

You are not that old yet.

Keep this inside.

Let's go.

Let's go.

You and your obsession
about going to London...

Thank God we found
someone like Chiplunkarji.

Willing to bear your
educational expenses.

Otherwise you would be a bachelor
for the rest of life.

You promise to come back?

And not fall for
some British girl there.

Absolutely not.
My brother isn't like that.

He's completely
focused on his studies.

I am aware.

I am blessed with wealth

It's the knowledge that I seek.

But I seek wealth...

The wealth that even you don't have.

No one in this country has.

Independence.

It is the sole objective of my life.

And that's why,

I want to travel to London,
and study British Law.

God bless.

Shall we ask the priest
for an auspicious date--

Wait.

I have a condition.

Your daughter should
be aware of my objective.

If I don't have her approval,

then I will not marry her.

'Kheer'

Good thing you made 'kheer' today.

I have some good news.

Didn't I say
I'll give them the news?

Full scholarship?

It's a matter of pride.

It is a matter of
pride for Ferguson College.

Tatya will be studying in an English school.

Brother, you won't
have to pay a single penny?

Yes.

Learn from him.

Tell him.

Three years in Ferguson.

And then London.

Go on.

I never disrespect food.

And I'll have this 'kheer' first.

I'm only going to Poona.

What is wrong?

I can't even see you going to Poona.

I'll die when you go to London.

Can you imagine
how much I'll miss you?

So will I.

But look at it from
a different point of view.

Ferguson College. Full scholarship!

Won't have to pay a single penny.

Isn't that a matter of joy?

It is a matter of joy.

I won't have to listen
to Mazzini anymore.

The Italian revolutionary Mazzini,

united all the different factions,
and freed Italy.

Similarly, together, we shall
fight for India's independence.

But Syed Ahmad Khan sir said
"We can never be one".

Why not?

He said,
"We are two separate countries".

"Hindus and Muslims."

"Muslims are king and
Hindus are the subjects."

Wrong.

The sword (rule) of India shall
spread till London (British Empire)

so said Bahadur Shah Zafar.

In the 1857 war, Hindus and
Muslims fought together.

Because the nation
is above all religion.

Mazzini united Italy.

We'll create undivided India!

Ferguson College is an ideal college,
known for its ideal students.

So stop provoking my students.

You were given admission as a student,
not an activist.

What is the definition
of a student, sir?

What do you mean?

A student is one who seeks
the real meaning of knowledge.

Understands the truth.

That's exactly what I am doing, sir.

And I am describing it to others
the way I see it.

Along with scoring good marks in exams.

I thought...
you'll call me an ideal student.

An ideal student attends class, Vinayak.

Two days ago, when the professor of
Indian History, told you to attend class--

It was the truth.

Because he was narrating His story
(the history of the British king),

and not Her story (of my motherland).

Vinayak Savarkar.

You are expelled from the hostel.

And you will pay a fine of 10 rupees.

This is your punishment.

Now get out.

I said out!

We can no longer meet
in college in large groups.

Like the secret societies of Europe,
we must form our own secret society.

Abhinav Bharat.

Every society will have five members.

And these members will have no
information, about the other members.

We've established connections with the
secret societies of Punjab and Bengal.

Come, let's take an
oath of an armed revolution.

Vande Mataram: Salute to you, O motherland!

In the name of all the martyrs that have
shed their blood for Bharat Mata,

By the love innate in all men and women,

That I bear to the land of my birth,

Wherein lie the sacred
ashes of my forefathers,

and which is the cradle of my children.

By the tears of the countless mothers
for their children

the foreigners have enslaved,
tortured and killed,

convinced that without Absolute
Political Independence

or Swarajya my country can never

rise to the exalted position among the
nations of the earth which is Her due,

And convinced also

that Swarajya can never be attained

except by the waging of a bloody and
relentless war against the Foreign rule,

I shall from this moment do everything
in my power to fight for Independence

and place the Lotus Crown of Swaraj
(home rule) on the head of my Mother.

And with this object,
I join the Abhinav Bharat,

and pledge to be loyal and honest
towards the organisation.

If I betray the whole or
any part of this solemn oath,

or betray the organization
or anyone working in its favour

may I be doomed to
the fate of a perjurer.

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Don't spare a single one, kill them all.

Hail Goddess Kali!

Allah is the supreme.

We have to do something, sir.

This division of Bengal
is causing a lot of violence.

We are trying to police them.

But it is just not possible.

So don't police them then.

Let the dogs kill each other.

Save us the trouble of doing it.

Hey! What are you doing?

Get out.

Divide and rule, my friend.

Divide and rule.

And it seems religion
is the best tool to do it.

Religion, caste,

and personal interests...

We must rise above all and
together think about the nation.

Today I announce the 'Swadeshi Abhiyaan':
revolution of goods made in India.

Come,

let's together boycott
all foreign goods.

Only then...

Only then, can we make these Britishers aware
of our demand for 'Swarajya' (self rule).

Swarajya is my birthright
and I shall have it!

-Vande...
-Mataram!

-Vande...
-Mataram!

-Vande...
-Mataram!

Brother Tilak, our demand
was for constitutional reforms.

You are talking about rebellion.

We've been talking about
constitutional reforms for 20 years.

What did we gain?

Gokhale sir, for the reforms
we must maintain fear.

You will do this?

No. Abhinav Bharat.

Think about it.

The clothes you want to burn,

are of high value.

So was the golden Lanka,

But when someone's
freedom is at stake,

then be it Raavan's
raj or the British raj,

It will eventually be burnt to the ground.

I will give Abhinav Bharat this task,

only when you can assure me,

setting foreign goods on fire
isn't just for namesake

but to actually strike fear in
the hearts of these British.

Why assurance? I give my word.

This fire will shock the British empire,

and this will be a mark of our victory.

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Long live... Mother India!

Greetings, Tilak ji.

Greetings, Tilak ji.

Truly... this fire you started
will strike fire in their hearts.

You must maintain this fear now onwards.

-Long live...
-Lokmanya Tilak!

-Long live...
-Lokmanya Tilak!

-Long live...
-Lokmanya Tilak!

-Long live...
-Lokmanya Tilak!

-Long live...
-Lokmanya Tilak!

Along with your studies keep
visiting Kesari Wadi too.

And yes, I shall pay
your fine of ten rupees.

There is no need for that.

I'm going to London to study law.

I want to learn from
those revolutionaries.

Can you help me to
establish contact with them?

You must be extra careful now.

All eyes are on you, good and bad.

The clothes were gathered
by a secret society,

called Abhinav Bharat.

And it was set on fire by them, sir.

Who is their ring leader?

Vinayak Savarkar, sir.

I fined him 10 rupees and
threw him out of the hostel.

Just throw him out of the college.

But on what grounds?

He's our top student and
he's graduating next month.

He's going to London to study law.

Is he now?

Potato curry and wheat bread.

God knows what kind of food
you'll get there.

-This will last you a couple of days.
-Will it last three years?

Take care of Prabhakar and yourself.

Get him his smallpox shot.

I am telling you again.

Injections are not against our religion.

You take care too.

I am telling you again.

Crossing the sea can bring bad luck.

I am scared.

This sea washes the feet of Mother India.

It will take me across the
world and bring me back to you.

There is no need for this.

Tilak sir has paid my first-year fee,
and also made boarding arrangements.

God bless you!

-It's time.
-Yes.

Take care yourself.

You too.

I am entrusting Abhinav Bharat in
your hands now, brother.

Don't worry.

Soon we'll have a branch in every city.

And if anyone diverges from his pledge,

then he will be dealt with
the Abhinav Bharat way.

Study hard.

Okay, Brother

Our nation needs doctors.

Come.

Tatya (younger brother)

At least, give me a hug.

Where is your ticket?

Let me see.

Why didn't you see the sign?

It's written in King's English.

I just look.

You just look.

Bugger off and look
somewhere else, you Indian.

Get your hands off me.

We paid the same fare as you.

In international water, we're equal.

Sir, please.

You've learned some English, huh.

-Sir.
-You Indian dog!

Let's go. let's go.
Come with me, brother.

Sorry. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Travel peace.

-Let's go. Let's go.
-Leave me.

You want to eat?

Let's go.

Going to England like this?

Look... you should think.

Learn to mix. I mean...

Do you get my point?

You have to change.

'Kesh, Kangha, Kada, Kachera, Kirpan'
(Hair, comb, bracelet, inners, dagger).

That's the identity of a Khalsa.

It's a part of Sikh.
Part of our culture.

It's high time they stop
making fun of our culture.

Don't mind.

But, are you sure?

Will you continue wearing this
cultural loin cloth in England?

You are confusing
two concepts, Mr. Iyer.

Culture and civility.

Our culture is who we are,
and civility is of the country we live in.

We should adopt the way they dress, eat.

But without forgetting our own culture.

So as long as our
culture is in our heart,

our civility is in our hands.

Vande Mataram!

Lala Lajpat Rai,
Dadabhai Navroji, DS Rana,

Madam Cama,

are associated with
Shyamji Verma's India House.

Can we really stay here?

This is a haven for Indians

in London among foreigners.

I am Shyamji Krishna Verma.

Welcome to the home
of revolution, Vinayak.

Please...

Tilak was all praises about you.

Come in.

I have some friends
from Abhinav Bharat...

Every Indian is welcome in India House.

Everybody...

This is Vinayak Savarkar.

The one we've been eagerly waiting for.

Stop being so formal, Shyamji.

You are intimidating the lad.

I am Bikaji Kama.

You can call me the
Maitre D of this place.

How was your journey?

It was nice.

Let me introduce you. That's SR Rana.

Hello.

And that's Hardayal--

Greetings, Vinayak.

Padurang Mahadev Bapat.

That's Parmanand.

Hello. Parmanand.

MPT Acharya.

I've heard a lot about
your Abhinav Bharat.

Are you going to...

Let him settle first, Acharya.

Sorry.

We all have high expectations from you.

Bringer of hope or
the bringer of doom?

Meet our flamboyant revolutionary.

Madanlal Dhingra.

You should keep your distance from him.

We'll have to keep our distance.

Because with his arrival, the Secret
Service has come dangerously closer.

So where is this Tilak prodigy residing?

65 Cromwell Avenue.

High Gate, North London, sir.

What place is that?

It's a hostel for Indian students, sir.

Run by that chap Shyamji Verma.

Keep a close eye on this Savarkar,

while we decide what
to do with that Tilak.

And his hard-liners.

Right, sir.

This inverted comma is the answer
to all your answers.

Yes!

He's emerged out of his cave.

What chapter did you write today,
my friend?

Come on, start class.

Now you have come to the right room.

There are other important things
in life as well... Mr. Savarkar.

Welcome to the house of evolution.

Cheers!

You left so early last night!

Weren't you having fun?

I was having too much fun.

That's why I left.

Why are you so allergic to fun,
Savarkar?

Fun has its own place,
and so does revolution.

You are in London, man.

My goal to come to London
was never a celebration.

They are celebrating the
golden jubilee of the 1857 mutiny.

It is time,

to change their point of view

Meaning.

1857 was not a mutiny,
it was India's first freedom struggle!

What? He's writing a bloody book?

Yes, sir.

What about specifically?

He's giving the mutiny
of 1857 an Indian twist, sir.

And call it the Revolution of 1857.

Vande Mataram!

Let me know when he is done.

Yes, sir.

Come on. This is my house darling.

What are you doing? What's going on?

We must show you the
greatness of this man,

who is showing
you such a great time.

We should break his face.

No. Such traitors should be killed.

But we cannot do that here.

We will pay you five
pounds every month, twice.

But just tell me,

for 5 pounds, you sold your mother?

What are you saying?
What is going on here?

He sold his motherland
for five pounds a month.

Shut up.

I will never do that to my
country you little piece of skunk.

Do you all have to leave so soon?

The British government
has been watching me.

If I stay here,
we can all be in danger.

My people in Paris
will take care of you.

I am going to Germany.

It's time we bring the fire
of our revolution to a global level.

And you shall be the torchbearer.

Vinayak, you completed it.

Only with guidance
from you and Shyamji.

What... is this?

The first flag of independent India.

Free India.

Undivided India!

The green of Islam.

And yellow of Hindus.

Red of Buddha.

Eight lotuses on top.

The eight provinces.

The Islamic moon below.

And the Sanatan (Eternal- a term
used for the Hindu way of life) Sun.

And in the middle...

Salutations to the motherland.

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

The car is waiting outside.

We must leave immediately.

Vande Mataram!

Barrister Gandhi wants to meet you.

The guy from the train
incident in Africa.

I don't want to meet him.

Why? He's a revolutionary as well.

In his own way.

When the Zulu people were
fighting for their independence,

he sided with the British.

All those in the world
fighting for independence,

are our brothers.

Wait. Wait just a minute.

What Muslim League are
Syed Ali and Mr. Khan ranting about?

Even we are Muslims,

but none of us is interested
in joining the Muslim League Party.

Absolutely. We are Indians.

Even if they make one,
how will it matter?

You guys don't get it.

If they succeed in forming
a separate Muslim party,

it can lead to several problems.

Only time will tell.

Where can I find Vinayak Savarkar?

He's cooking his
favourite dish today.

-Where?
-Over there in the kitchen.

Mr. Savarkar.

Myself, MK Gandhi.

Hello.

You need no introduction,
Barrister sir.

Please.

And everyone's read
your revolutionary ideology.

Have you?

That's why I wanted us to meet.

So we can discuss how
we can join hands together.

Did you actually read my work?

I absolutely did.

You write pretty well.

And as the older one,
I have some advice for you, Vinayak.

Violence can lead to revolution,
but not the correct solution.

Even you believe in Gautam Buddha.

This is his path.

Non-violence is the greatest virtue.

I believe in Buddha,

but I don't agree with him.

You may have not raised your hand,

but forming the medical
auxiliary force against the Zulu people,

and supporting the British
isn't exactly non-violence.

True.

But the Zulu's started the violence.

The British government
was being treated unfairly.

I always side
with truth and justice--

You mean to say,

if violence is done for the
right purpose, then it's justified.

Maybe you don't understand
what I am saying.

What about self-defence?

Anyway... let's discuss this over
lunch. I don't want to ruin my dish.

I am a pure vegetarian.

And I am looking for people,

who can rip the hearts out of these
Britishers and eat them alive.

If you can't even eat with us,
how will you fight with us?

Madam Cama has announced war.

The time for meetings
and discussions is over.

It's now a call to action.

This 'call to action'
will have three objectives.

One,
we have to smuggle guns to India.

So we can kill these
Britishers one by one.

They should be
terrified by the thought

that they can be killed by anyone,
anywhere.

Two...

We must write to our Sikh
brothers in British forces,

so they can be
prepared for an uprising.

And write to the princely states,

that if they don't
join our revolution,

they can't even imagine what
the people of India will do to them.

Three...

We must learn how to make bombs.

Can you sign this book for me,
Mr. Lenin?

I am sorry about what happened
to the armed revolution in your country.

Some say it was a failure but,

I believe 1905 was
just a dress rehearsal.

Do you understand what I say?

Yes.

Ours was 1857.

Right.

How can I be of help?

We need to learn how to make bombs.

I can get you manuals.

Not here.

But in Paris.

Thank you.

Long live the armed revolution!

Let's blow up the parliament here.

That is our aim.

But if we make an explosion now,

we won't be able to
send these manuals to India.

First, we must send
these manuals to India.

Every village should
have a bomb-making factory.

If we succeed,

we'll kill enough British by 1912
to drive them out of India

Or die trying.

I will wage war against the enemy
and slay them till my last breath.

Vande Mataram.

Go down. Come on.

Move.

Stay back.

Stay back.

Move. You Indian dog.

They exiled our leader,
and locked him up in Burma.

How can this be justice?

And why him?

The death of those two women,

made things worse.

But the judge survived.

We cannot afford to miss, Vinayak.

A revolutionary's sacrifice
has gone in vain.

And one so young.

His sacrifice won't be in vain.

I shall raise
many more Khudiram Bose.

Where did you get this book from?

Where did you get this book?

Don't give me in the hands of a fool

Thus says a book

They don't call me
Pandit Jackson for nothing.

Speaking God's language
doesn't make you God.

So you are the leader
of Abhinav Bharat, right.

Abhinav Bharat?

I know no such thing.

But you are quite a printer,
aren't you?

If you tell me who else is involved,

this will stop.

You don't know us brothers yet.

Do you want this for yourself?

Anyone else wants to be a rebel?

Get up.

This... is what happens,

when you rage a battle
against the crown.

He's being sent to rot
in Kaala Pani (Cellular Jail).

No one...

comes out from Kaala Pani.

So nothing out of the ordinary, then?

No, sir.

He's studying for his final bar exam.

Day and night, sir.

Very hard working, sir.

Sir...

He will make a good lawyer.

What about that damn
book he was writing?

He... stopped, sir.

The time has come for the
next stage of revolution, Madan.

We're going to attempt something

on this land of Britain that has
never happened before

Political murder

This one man destroyed
thousands of Indian family

The secret service head of London

It's time to offer
Lord Curzon Willey's head

at mother India's feet.

I wish it was me instead.

I would never give this opportunity
to anyone in 100 lifetimes.

And certainly not you.

Who will keep the
revolution alive after you?

And anyway,
I'm better looking than you.

Madanlal Dhingra.

If you miss,

I will never see your face again.

Vande Mataram.

Vande Mataram.

Hey Wylie.

Drop your gun.

Drop.

Silence!

You admit your guilt?

I have no guilt of
killing Curzon Wylie.

But I am guilty of killing
the Parsi gentleman.

I apologise to his family.

That said, we're being joined
by Madanlal Dhingra's family.

And I will let them speak
before we take the vote.

We... We denounce and disown my brother,
Madanlal Dhingra.

As not a part of our family.

He is a traitor.

Thank you, Mr. Dhingra.

And now I would like to bring forward

a motion to vote in
front of this gathering.

For a unanimous decision to condemn.

I oppose.

Hence this is not
a unanimous decision.

He's still under trial.

You are guilty by law.

I do not recognise your law,

just like you don't recognise
the sovereignty of my country.

If this is a democracy,
then why are my people still slaves?

And not free to choose
their own destiny.

Stop that. Stop.

Calm down. Stop.

Any last words?

A question, my lord.

If you were occupied by the Germans,

and one of your countrymen
killed a German officer,

what would you call him?

That's who I am.

That's who I am.

Vande Mataram.

Non-violence is the greatest virtue.

I am not here to talk about politics.

I came here to express my views

about the Hindu festival
'Vijaya Dashmi'.

'Vijaya Dashmi'

marks the victory of good over evil.

The establishment of
'Ram-Rajya' (Lord Ram's reign)

'Ram-Rajya' was attained
through sacrifice and fasting.

By the sacrifices of Lord Ram.

The sacrifices of Lakshman.

And the sacrifices of Mother Sita.

Sacrifice is the only
means of attaining 'Ram-Rajya'.

Here's wishing all of
you a happy Vijaya Dashmi.

And now I don't want to keep you any
longer from your favourite star speaker.

I welcome the great patriot...

VD Savarkar.

In that case, Raavan was
killed unnecessarily.

Thank you for the
great introduction...

Barrister MK Gandhi... sir.

It's not about politics.

It's about point of view.

And from my point of view,
of 'Vijaya Dashmi',

'Ram-Rajya' wasn't
attained through fasting.

It was achieved by slaying Raavan,
his brothers and his army.

Rulers far and wide knew,

if you wrong king Ram,

you'll face the same
consequence as the great Raavan.

Was killing Raavan unfair?

And if you call that unfair...

Then...

"Take me back to my Motherland"

"O Ocean... my soul is tormented"

"Restless is my soul... O Ocean"

"In the form of foam you laugh
at me ruthlessly"

"Why did you break your promise (of
taking me back to my mother) this way?"

"You fool yourself by calling
my Mother weak"

"Why put me and Her through this pain!"

"You are in fact the one"

"who is scared of the British rule"

"Fearsome though England may be, O"

"My Mother is not weak,
helpless nor a coward"

"Let me remind you,
Agastya (one of Her sons)

In an instant had swallowed you

"O Ocean... my soul is tormented..."

"Restless"

"O Ocean..."

Vande Mataram.

"My soul is tormented..."

Vande Mataram!

I know how it feels
to lose someone so close.

Kanhare was someone's son too.

I don't know what to do.

Should I go back and
share my wife's grief?

Or should I stay here,
and make sure that,

Kanhare, Madan and Khudiram's
sacrifice doesn't go in vain.

It won't be in vain.

They made a point.

What point?

Newspapers?

They either print Gandhi's words
or follow Congress.

They call us

cowards and traitors.

The freedom struggle of
1857 had failed just like this.

Vinayak, we are not prepared.

We are getting prepared.

By 1912 we'll have enough
strategies and ammunition,

to come together and fight
for freedom like in 1857.

But for that,
we must make the headlines.

I am going back to London.

No, you can't.

You have a warrant against you

for waging a war against the crown.

Yes, for sedition.

If you go back, you will be arrested.

Savarkar.

Mr. Savarkar.

And then what?

I'll be sentenced
to three years of jail,

according to the law of London.

Savarkar.

Mr. Savarkar.

Then they will have to print
our statements from the court.

The entire world will
be aware of our struggle.

I want them to discuss

our independence in their parliament.

Here I am.

I am VD Savarkar.

In the Crown Vs. Savarkar,

on behalf of the crown,
the prosecution demands

that the accused

be deported to India,
with immediate effect.

I demand to be tried here in London.

My lord, you know the
law as well as I do.

You cannot deport me to India,

unless you prove me guilty here.

He's right.

He should be tried here in London.

But he's a threat to the crown, sir.

We need him in India,

Where he won't be afforded the rights.

one enjoys in this great country.

There he'll be tried as a native.

But it's not justice.

Consider it poetic justice.

Your honour.

I've to go to the lavatory.

Hurry up.

[speaking in French]

Arrest me. Arrest me now.

I'm a political fugitive.

I'm a political fugitive.
Arrest me.

Arrest me.

-He is a thief.
-I am a political prisoner.

[speaking in foreign language]

I need political asylum.
Arrest me.

French police.

[speaking in French]

Stop them. You can arrest me.

[speaking in French]

[speaking in French]

[speaking in French]

And funnily enough,

they harbour the world's biggest
thieves and robbers,

without having any
extradition treaties.

These very British,
in their hypocrisy,

arrest a man seeking political asylum
on French soil.

And persecuting him
for those very things,

that he's seeking asylum for.

Mr. Savarkar should be
handed back to the French,

as a political asylum case.

Free Savarkar.

Free Savarkar.

This is wrong. We need justice.

Justice for Savarkar.

We are getting
international pressure,

for this one little native.

Throw him to the French, for I care.

And put an end to this damn circus.

But, Mr. Churchill,

before you make a decision,

let me brief you on this man.

This Savarkar.

He and his revolutionary friends,

at India House planned to bomb
the British Parliament.

They smuggled bomb manuals and guns

that were used against
the king's soldiers.

If we don't prosecute him now,

when shall we?

When he bombs Buckingham Palace?

Or kills the king himself, sir?

My lord, the Fugitive
Offender's Act of 1881,

is only applicable
in the case of a fugitive.

Whereas I was a student,

studying law at the prestigious
Gray's Inn in London.

Shut up!

Why is he speaking?

Let the lawyer speak.

I myself am a barrister, my lord.

That is why I had gone
there to study this law.

And you are talking about a trial,
where is the jury?

There is nobody here.

The court find the accused guilty

of waging a war by instigation.

By the circulation of
printed matters inciting to war

and providing arms and distribution

of instructions for the
manufacture of explosives.

Under the section 121A of
the Indian Penal Code,

there will be immediate forfeitures of all
your property and your family member's .

Now these glasses too
are government property.

Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.

Sentence of the court upon
you is two transportations for life

to be served one after the other.

Hey... Stay back.

No touching.

My only crime was against you.

No.

Not at all.

You had asked for my approval.

And I had said yes.

But...

I never imagined...

I'll see this day.

Maybe this is what revolution is.

Maybe we've to set our
own homes aflame,

to keep the flames of
independence alit in millions of homes

Maybe.

Maybe.

This...

This is the

year I will be set free.

This is injustice,
Brother.

No one's ever been sentenced
to life twice till now.

God gave me one life,

but the judge gave me two.

What are the people saying outside?

Much has happened on foreign lands.

But there is silence here.

After sentencing Tilakji to jail,

Congress has gone back
to being the 'proposal' Congress.

Due to the efforts
of Madam Cama and Shyamji,

America, France, Germany and
England, formed a commission in Hague.

But they made
a deal among themselves.

Why didn't our sister-in-law,
Yeshu, come?

She wanted to come.

But ever since Brother
got arrested,

she has been keeping ill.
That's why she didn't come.

You take good care of yourself.

-Come on, leave. Time up.
-It wasn't easy getting this permission.

-Leave. Leave.
-Time up. Leave.

Don't worry about me.

Leave.

Brother is there
to look after me.

He must have made arrangements.

Narayan Rao,
focus on your medical studies.

Don't digress from it.

We need at least one Savarkar.

Make yourself sturdy enough so that,

come what may,
but they cannot break us!

Sir. Your glasses.

We chipped in to buy these glasses.

Leave.

Move ahead. Move.

Move. Hurry up.

Walk in a line.

Quiet. Everyone stand in a line.

Take the shackles off.

Hurry up.

Now strip.

Come on.

Strip.

Bend over.

Bend over.

-Now cough.
-Come on.

Harder.

Open your mouth.

Open your mouth.

Bathe.

Bathe.

What is this?

You are doing this wrong.

I am not some goon or thug.

I am a political prisoner.

A political prisoner has rights.

We will not bathe
in this salty seawater.

Rascal...

Do you want me to get the
water of Holy Ganges for you Hindus?

Is there a problem?

I'm Political prisoner.

I have rights...

By law.

Indeed, Mr. Savarkar.

You are special.

It says

you'll be our first
to live your life in here.

Twice over.

That's a long-long time.

We must learn
to understand each other.

And that requires introspection.

Solitary indefinitely.

Does anybody else have a problem?

Do you see the walls around?

Do you know why they are so low?

It is impossible to
escape from this place.

The sea surrounds us
for a distance of miles.

And in the forest, there are savages.

If they happen to see any man,

they do not hesitate
to pierce right through you,

with their sharp
arrows and then eat you.

Disobey me,

and may God have mercy on your souls

But then again,

God does not come

within three miles of Port Blair.

I am God.

My name is David Barry.

Welcome to hell.

Welcome to the
home of revolution, Vinayak.

Water.

Which ward is Baba Savarkar?

Where are you, Vinayak?

Are you alright?

Revolution will lead to
nowhere, Vinayak.

The British are too powerful.

I am very worried for you.

If you go back, you will be arrested.

Doesn't matter.

I'll be sent to jail for
three years according to London law.

Stop thinking.

Stop thinking.

It is sometimes unlucky to go across
the ocean. I feel really uneasy.

Baba Rao...

Open the door!

What is this mess? Beat him!

No water, we'll make you drink urine.

Move faster.

And Rascals want
to be revolutionaries.

[Prayer call]

Quote...

La Ilaha Illallah
Muhammadur Rasulullah.

La Ilaha Illallah Muhammadur Rasulullah.

Give him food.

Quote.

La Ilaha Illallah Muhammadur Rasulullah.

Give him food.

-La Ilaha Illallah Muhammadur Rasulullah.
-With your hands raised up.

La Ilaha Illallah
Muhammadur Rasulullah.

Properly.

La Ilaha Illallah
Muhammadur Rasulullah.

Give him food.

Brother.

Tatya?

What are you doing here?

Keep moving.

You hit my brother.

You hit my brother.

-Dog of the British.
-Leave my Brother.

Leave me.

Leave me. Tatya.

Leave him.

Take them away!
Take them away!

I thought the
next time when I see you,

it will be in a barrister's coat-tail.

I was enduring my imprisonment

because you were outside.

To continue doing our work.

How were you arrested?

Weren't you in Paris?

Narayan is still too young.

Who will look after our families now?

Those trapped in jail are
as crucial for the freedom struggle

as the freedom fighters
who are fighting outside

Before coming here, I met Narayan.

He is a grownup now.
Don't worry about him.

I only want to hug you once,
Brother.

You don't know.

But I keep reminiscing
about the moment I saw you.

I wish I had hugged you
instead of being surprised.

Knowing that you are so close,

and I can't even see you.

Every day feels like a burden.

I eagerly await your letters.

Soon, everything will change,
Brother.

There are many others like us here.

I've reached out to all of them.

Let's make a plan
to get out of here soon.

No need to write such
things in the letter.

Barry has his spies among prisoners.

All I am saying is... unified

"Bharat. Only One Motherland".

BOOM

Hey, stand in a straight line.

Stand in a line.

Rascal!

What is going on here?

Rascal!

Sir.

Rascal!

Scoundrel!

Give him back his glasses,
so he can see the real truth.

You think you're a revolutionary.

I'll show you a revolution.

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

"What miracle is this,
that flowers bloomed from my wounds?"

"Why does the crack of
the whip sound like a melody?"

"The blood oozing from
me narrates a story."

"Whether we exist or not,
the country must continue to exist."

"O Motherland."

"O Motherland."

"I salute thee..."

"Vande Mataram."
(Salute to you, O motherland)

"Vande Mataram."

"Even after I perish,
this is where I want to return."

"Such is my love for this nation."

"For your sake,
I would die with a smile."

"Vande Mataram."

"I salute thee..."

"Vande Mataram."

"Vande Mataram."

Everyone in ward three
has stopped fasting.

A boy named Nani Gopal
hasn't eaten yet.

When will Bharat become only
one motherland? (Boom)

Six days.

Son...

By not eating food

and giving up your life,

isn't just betrayal to your life,

but also to our revolution.

By any means,

take everything you get from them.

It is our Dharma
(duty) to get out of this hell

and contribute to the nation.

Not to die here of starvation.

It benefits no one, son.

Neither to you,

nor the country.

Give him food.

Who else was with you?

Where it is come from?

Give me the names,
and the punishment will stop.

Tell us the truth,
or even God can't save you.

Vande Mataram!

Put him back in the cell.

Put the body in the sea.

Write the report...

Suicide.

Mirza.

Sir... they refuse to work.

Stop the bloody strike.

Not until...

you stop your atrocities.

Good morning, sir.

What the hell is going on over there?

Good ol' Barry, Sir Craddock.

He's making an example
of these "bomb gola walas".

Example is one thing.

It going to press.

It's bad imaging.

Here we are, throwing
crumbs of constitutional reforms

to keep the moderates
engaged in talks.

And Barry is creating
sympathy for the hard-liners.

We are at the brink of bloody war,
for God's sake.

We've to keep these
Indians on our side.

Barry runs it like
his own kingdom, sir.

Does he now?

Has he forgotten
he works for the Crown,

like everyone else?

Sir Craddock.

I wish I'd known you were coming,
Sir Craddock.

I wish I had known.

Well,

now the whole world
seems to know, Barry,

what's going on in here.

I want these atrocities
to stop immediately.

But, sir,
I am just following the diktat

to break the bomb gola walas.

It's one thing to break them,

it's another thing to
make a spectacle out of them.

The... spectacle.

Here's a spectacle
I saved from happening.

What's this? A grocery list?

No, sir. It's a list
of ingredients to make a bomb.

A bomb?

Yes, sir.

They were planning
to blow up the jail.

Who?

Are these really necessary?

Absolutely, sir.

Have a seat.

I would advise against that.

You may leave, Barry.

But, sir?

You go too.

Sit.

Have some cake.

No, thank you, sir.

I hear you're building
a bomb to blow up this jail.

We do not get enough
to eat to survive, sir.

We're made to work like animals.

Where will I make a bomb from?

It's not what I've heard.

Can I be honest with you, sir?

Of course.

If I had a bomb,

I'd blow up this jail.

But I don't have a bomb.

And that's my honest answer.

Can I ask you
a personal question, sir?

Of course.

If Germany were to occupy England

and your mothers
and sisters were raped.

Your brothers were
put in jail or hanged

All your riches looted.

What would you do?

Would you not do everything
in your power to stop it?

Perhaps...

Perhaps.

How can I help you?

I am, after all,
a political prisoner, sir.

And I am entitled to books.

Pen and paper.

In fact, can I have one now?

Thank you, sir.

Nice pen. I like pens.

I like writing.

Petition from V.D. Savarkar.

Convict number 32778

to Reginald Craddock.

Home Secretary, Government of India.

Dated November 14th, 1913.

Dear, sir...

"Dear, sir."

I beg to submit

the following points,
for your kind consideration.

I am not asking for
any preferential treatment,

though I believe
as a political prisoner,

even that could have been expected,

in any civilised administration

in the independent
nations of the world.

But only for the concessions
and favours that are shown

even to the
most depraved of convicts

and habitual criminals.

For those who are termed convicts,

the thing is different.

But, sir,

I have fifty years
staring me in the face.

The world war is at its peak.

And the British have
their entire focus on Europe,

and this is our chance,

to totally throw out
the British from our land.

Without the Indian army,
Indian treasury and food,

they will lose the war.

Gokhale sir, the day isn't far,

when we will achieve
total independence.

Tilakji, there is one more opinion...

during this tough time,
we should help the British.

If we fight the
world war on their side,

even they will help us in the future.

If the government,
in their manifold beneficence

-and mercy were to release me
-Come on. Move ahead.

I for one cannot but
be the staunchest advocate,

of constitutional progress
and loyalty to the English government.

Savarkar ji, do you know
how I became a revolutionary.

I saw one of your cartoons.

On Kolhu.

In the newspaper.

I didn't know I would be Kolhu.

Bole So Nihaal.

Satsriakaal.

If we be released,

the people
will instinctively raise,

a shout of joy and gratitude
to the government.

Who knows,
how to forgive and correct

more than how
to chastise and avenge.

Now, if a constitution exists,

and home rule is decidedly such,

then so much political,

social, economical and
educational work is to be done.

And could be constitutionally done,

that the government
may securely rest satisfied,

that none of the present
political prisoners

who choose
to face untold suffering,

by resorting to underground
methods, for sheer amusement.

We should free
all political prisoners,

so we can build a nation together.

If clubbing my release with other
political prisoners is stopping you,

from this generosity
and a gesture of goodwill.

I may be exempted from it.

Bade Babu.

That's what they are calling you now,
Bomb Gola Wala.

I got a good news for you,
and a good news for me.

114 prisoners were released.

Good news for me.

You are not one of them again.

I am just happy for
the 114 revolutionary.

That will carry out the revolution.

Look at me when I talk to you.

You listen with your ears,
Barry, not your eyes.

I think your cell needs
a new coat of paint.

You can erase it from there, Barry.

How will you erase it from here?

Solitary

History shows,

that the fault of India,
if a fault it was,

had been not that she was less.

But that she was too
generous and too confiding.

To his honour,

the secretary to the government
of India, Home Department.

Your Honour,

now that we have a constitution,

my conversion to the constitutional
line could bring back,

all those misled young men

in India and abroad

who were once looking
up to me as their guide.

I am ready to serve the government

in any capacity they like,

For as my conversion
is conscientious,

so I hope my
future conduct would be.

By keeping me in jail,

nothing can be got in comparison
to what would be otherwise.

The mighty alone can
afford to be merciful.

And therefore where else
can the prodigal son return,

but the parental
doors of the government.

Your humble servant, V.D. Savarkar.

This is his fifth petition, right.

You met him once.

So what do you say, Sir Craddock.

This man should
be shown no concession.

If you let him out on the mainland,
he will escape.

If you let him out, even on an island,

he'll turn the cannibals

into a force of rebellion.

And attack the mainland.

Or

maybe a boat

will pick him up with
his Abhinav Bharat people.

He cannot be said to express
any regret or repentance.

Quite frankly, sir, he's
the most dangerous man I've ever met.

Now...

Isn't that a rather tall description?

And how do you come about this?

Because in just one meeting,

he almost had me convinced

that we are in the wrong...

sir.

Stand up, you lazy bones.

What's the problem?

He's not working, sir.

Jesus!

This man cannot die.

He'll be a martyr and I'll be damned.

Doctor.

Get this one he does not die.

The British listen to you.

And the conference of all states has
passed a resolution to free my brothers.

He is very ill.

Gandhiji, the British
will definitely listen to you.

I...

Met Vinayak in London.

He is a very intelligent,

intellectual and a man
with great organisational skills.

Vinayak had seen the traits in
the British rule long ago.

Our paths are separate.

But I respect his revolutionary ideas.

If he comes out,

it will certainly help
the new provisional government.

Come.

I'll show you

how to write a mercy petition.

Why do you hate
the British so much?

I don't hate the British.

I hate slavery.

If the British leave,

we can be friends.

In fact,

if their independence
was ever attacked,

we could fight with them.

The might of the British Empire

lies in patriots like me.

Men

who will do anything
for the king and country.

I was once... a young,

romantic,

Irish revolutionary.

Not a terrorist like you.

One man's terrorist is
another man's revolutionary,

Mr. Barry.

I've enjoyed our conversations.

Conversations happen between
two free men, Mr. Barry.

Not when one is chained.

I am going to retire tomorrow.

I outlasted you, Barry.

Upstairs.

Let them meet.

Yeshu?

Brother, I met Gandhiji.

He will personally write about you.

And if he does, your petition
will definitely be accepted.

Gandhi?

Has he become such a big name?

Yes.

After the death of Tilakji,

Gandhiji is the new
leader of the country.

I've become an orphan.

The entire country has been orphaned.

Forgive me, Bapu.

But you supporting the
Caliphate revolution is wrong.

Ambedkar sir, it's Khilafat.

It's a revolution
of our Muslim brothers.

And the Hindus should join them

and show our unity to the British.

So they cannot raise this as an
issue between us and our independence.

This is happening in Turkistan.

Why are we joining it?

You are doing this
to support them, Bapu.

Jinnah sir,

don't feel insecure
from the Ali brothers.

They fear they are minorities.

And the Congress demands democracy.

And in a democracy,
the majority always wins.

To include the Muslims
in the freedom struggle,

we must support them.

Bapu,

you don't know Muslims
like the Ali brothers.

They don't want democracy,

but sultanate.

I agree with Jinnah sir.

This revolution
is not India's revolution.

Caliphate

Khilafat

Khilafat means opposition.

This is enough for the common people.

One day I ate their food

And I committed
sacrilege (no longer a Hindu)

I cannot even worship my God now.

I've been converted to Muslim.

I don't know what to do.

Eating someone's food
doesn't change your religion.

Tomorrow if some Muslim
eats your food, will he become Hindu?

Forget a Muslim's food,

even if you ate an entire Muslim
you still wouldn't become a Muslim.

Get up.

Say Aah... (open wide).

(Chanting the Gayatri
Mantra for purification)

Okay, now you're a Hindu.

I am Hindu again.

I am Hindu again.

I am Hindu again.

Say Aah... (open wide).

[Gayatri Mantra]

What are you doing?

Same thing that you do.

Bloody infidel!

Get up. I will show you.

What kind of a Muslim are you
who couldn't be loyal to his country.

These British are
using you to break our country

If you want to be someone
be like Bahadur Shah Zafar's son.

Who worshipped his country
higher than religion.

The Indian sword will reach right
up to the throne of London (British rule)

The Indian sword will reach right
up to the throne of London (British rule)

The Indian sword will reach right
up to the throne of London (British rule)

They are dividing the country.

Don't let them use you.

Don't let them use you.

The Indian sword will reach right
up to the throne of London (British rule)

The Indian sword will reach right
up to the throne of London (British rule)

The Indian sword will reach right
up to the throne of London (British rule)

Don't look so happy.

You are getting out of
Kaala Pani, not jail.

You will still
serve your full sentence.

Neither the might of the white British

nor the walls of Kaala (black) Paani
can stop me.

Allahu Akbar!(God is great!)

Mr. Savarkar.

We're moving all Hindus
to a separate Hindu Wing.

Now.

Salim.

Which place will you
become the Nawab (king) of?

Our brethren are coming.

A telegram was sent,

to the Amir of Afghanistan
from the Ali brothers.

"Please come invade the country.
British weak."

"Make it a sultanate."

On the North-west border frontier,

the British forces
consist mostly of Muslims.

If there is an attack
in the name of Jihad,

will they fight them?

Or join them

The bloodshed and violence
isn't stopping, Bapu.

Thousands of Hindus
were massacred in Moplah.

And you are quiet.

The least you
can do is criticise them.

If I criticise one community,

the British will doubt our unity.

You are concerned about the British,

but this was totally unfair.

Irrespective of who did it.

I can't let the British succeed
in breaking the Hindu-Muslim unity.

What Hindu-Muslim unity
do you speak of, Bapu?

I never wanted this violence.

To control the situation,
something has to be done.

They are dividing the country.

From the river of Sindhu
to the vast oceans,

we are all one.

Doesn't matter what community,
religion or society we come from.

To achieve freedom, we should
have only one political ideology.

'Hindutva.'

You mean Hindu religion.

No!

'Hindutva' is not Hindu religion.

Even the Sanatan religion
is a part of the Hindu religion.

It consists of Lingayat
Arya Samaj and many more.

Even Sikhs.

How could Sikhs be Hindus?

Sikhs are the biggest Hindus,

who have been defending
Hind like an impenetrable shield.

Confused?

Maybe before explaining Hindutva,

I must first explain who Hindus are.

[Sanskrit chant]

[Sanskrit chant]

Meaning,

from the river Sindhu to the ocean,

those who treat this vast land
that is Bharat as their ancestral land,

and as their motherland,

meaning, accepts it's culture,
tradition, food and celebrations,

is a Hindu.

But how would we know?

From Sindhu (river) to Sindhu (ocean)

if you give anyone a
book of Rabindranath Tagore,

and of William Shakespeare.

Then people in every state will say,
that Ravidranath Tagore's book is ours.

And...

since the North-West
frontier province could be attacked

in the name of Jihad...

This land will
also be his sacred land.

Anyone who accepts these is a Hindu.

And Buddhists?

Hindus.

Jains?

Hindus.

And... Muslims?

If they regard a mosque or
shrine in this land as their holy land

then why not?

Hindutva is a political,
geographical and cultural history.

Not connected to any religion.

The one who accepts Hind as his own

Is a Hindu.

This is the BBC

Ramsay McDonald of
the British Labour Party

considers Russia
as the biggest free country on earth.

United Soviet Union.

This could have been our
country had Vinayak not been jailed.

But that time has come, Shyamji.

Savarkar is finally free.

Now he'll show them.

What will he show?

There are two conditions
for his release.

He cannot leave Ratnagiri.

And second,

he cannot work for any
political or religious organisation.

If he does,

he will be sent back to
Kaala Paani for fifty years.

But Shyamji,

the whole country
will rally behind him.

I am sure they will
welcome him in a grand way.

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Forgot to wash my hands.

The Bombay University
has revoked my degrees.

London never gave
me my barrister degree.

Books are banned for me.

Can't ask my father-in-law for help.

The British stripped
him too of everything.

What now?

How is your clinic doing?

I am a Savarkar after all.

What to do?

Very few patients visit it.

Then I can't ask for your help either.

They took everything from me.

They must compensate for it.

I will apply for a allowance.

Every Kaala Paani inmate
has a right to allowance.

I know of a printing press.

If we work at night,
we won't have to pay the rent.

Down train was...
to Lucknow.

When it passed Kakori however,
it was attacked by some men.

It is believed
that they looted that specific train

because it was carrying the money bags

that were being transferred to
the British government treasury.

Glory to Gandhiji.

Glory to Gandhiji.

Glory to Gandhiji.

Glory to Gandhiji.

Glory to Gandhiji.

Glory to Gandhiji.

Calm down...

Do pranam (pay respect) my child

He is a big man.

How are you, friend?

Like a lion in a cage.

-Greetings.
-Greetings.

How are you?

I am absolutely fine.
I've heard so much about you.

I can't tell you how much...

Please, come inside.

Please.

I am sorry Vinayak for not
coming earlier to meet you.

I was in Ratnagiri for a meeting.

And thought I should
pay you a visit too.

The articles you wrote for
Babarao and me, and helped us...

I...

We all are grateful to you.

I still side with justice and truth.

Vinayak, if an intelligent revolutionary

becomes part of the
provisional government,

it will benefit the country.

I have questions for you
about this very provisional government.

And since you are here...

Separate electorate for Muslims?

You means 25% of Muslims
get 36% reservations.

One Muslim vote will
equal to three Hindu votes?

This is their right.

Why?

Because before Christians,
the Muslims were our rulers?

Don't you understand
the fears felt by minorities?

Do you not understand
the pain felt by the majority

who have been slaves for 800 years?

Vinayak, when a mother
has several children,

She loves the weak child more.

In that case, Sikhs, Parsis and
Anglo-Indians should be loved more, right?

True that.

True that.

Today I am here to discuss
a separate issue with you.

About the Harijan (Gandhian term
for people belonging to lower castes).

Harijan who?

Are we not Jan (the children)
of the same Hari (God)?

We should not divide
Hindus by caste and creed.

That was my question.

What is your opinion?

Start inter-caste marriages.

In four generations, everyone
will forget about caste and creed.

And they will be
only Hindus in the end.

The caste-based system
is a part of our culture.

We should not fiddle with it.

Then let's do
Shuddhi (purify) & reconvert.

I am against religious conversion.

So am I.

Bapu. Let's go.

We are getting late
for the next meeting.

I bow before you for living with
a man like Vinayak Savarkar.

I couldn't spend
even an hour with him.

We'll meet again,
my revolutionary friend.

Non-violence is the greatest virtue

Why do you want to publish
my book into English?

This book is an inspiration to us.

By publishing this
great book in English,

I want this to
reach the new generation

Because anyone who hasn't read
this book cannot join HSRA.

-HSRA... it's-
-I know.

Hindustan Socialist
Republican Association.

I have the highest respect for them.

Chandrashekhar Azad
is a great revolutionary.

He's doing so much for the country.

What did you do?

I killed Saunders.

Point blank.

Just like...

oCmrade Madanlal Dhingra.

Those cowards will never know
the true worth of tears

shed by the ones who laid their lives
for the motherland.

Why can't the Dalit enter the temple?

Savarkarji, you know very well.

This will tarnish the honour
and dignity of the temple.

This is the tradition.
Being followed for many years.

I will build a
separate temple for them.

A 'Patit Pawan' temple.

Let's go.

I will arrange for an inter-caste
feast in front of this temple.

You must all attend with your family.

Brother

Bhagat Singh has been arrested.

I know.

My jail sentence has
been increased by five years.

Long live...

Revolution.

You did it!

Built a temple...

for everyone.

Now the same has to be done
all over the country.

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Savarkarji, which party will you join?

Or make your own.

Have you ever thought

why no member of Congress was
ever sentenced to Kaala Paani?

So you won't join Congress.

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

If the Congress
is siding with Muslims,

then who will side with us Hindus?

And unlike the Muslim League,

we don't want special
rights for Hindus.

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Our only demand is total equality.

All those who love Hind are Hindus.

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

Glory to Vinayak Savarkar!

-Tatya...
-Savakarji, let's go.

Please, let's go, Savarkarji.

To raise this issue and
in the interest of Hindustan

I joined the Hindu Mahasabha.

Long Live Undivided India

Long Live Undivided India

This program is for an
important announcement

from the British Prime Minister,
Mr. Neville Chamberlin.

This is the prime minister
Neville Chamberlin.

Germany has invaded Poland
two days ago on September the 1st.

This morning,
the British ambassador in Berlin

handed the German government a final note

stating unless
we heard from them by 11 o'clock,

that they were prepared at
once to be withdrawn from Poland.

A state of war would exist between us.

I have to tell you now that
no such undertaking has been received.

And that consequently this
country is at war with Germany.

Yes, we are at war.

Even if we cover the entire earth with
proposals, our voices will not be heard.

Only proposal advocated by
those carrying a gun will be accepted.

I want to appeal
to students and artists.

In times like these,

the pen is not
mightier than the sword.

Get rid of your
pen and arm yourselves.

Back in our days,
if anyone was found carrying a gun,

he would be sent to Kaala Paani.

But now the British themselves want
to arm us with guns, cannons and tanks.

Join the military in large numbers.

Get trained.

Become a mechanic,
become a commander.

And time will tell in which
direction will you point the barrel in.

Allah is Great!

Islam is a nation unto itself.

It doesn't depend on boundaries.

Despite this,
today is a historic day.

Not only the resolution for
a separate Islamic nation has been passed.

But today also
guarantees the safety,

progress and happiness
of our entire community.

Ambedkar sir is right.

Compared to Hindus, the number of Muslims
in the British army is much bigger.

If there is an attack in the
name of their religion,

will they fight for the
country or their religion.

Hindus too must join the
army in large numbers.

After the British leave,

If they conspire to turn
India into a empire again,

then we won't let the
Mughals rule over us again.

The Muslim League is a Muslim party.

The Congress want
to support the Hindus,

but they hesitate
to call themselves Hindu.

The Congress doesn't represent Hindus.

If you want to discuss the Hindus,
then talk to Savarkarji.

Even though

our ideologies don't match,

But at least he doesn't hesitate
to call himself a Hindu.

Jinnah sir says I should
talk about Hindus to you.

You could have spoken
to Jinnah sir as well.

He himself is a new Muslim

Tell Jinnah sir, the day he
shuts down the Muslim League,

we will shut down Hindu Mahasabha.

You always promote Undivided India.

This country cannot be
divided into Hindus and Muslims.

Undivided India
should remain undivided.

Your plans of burning
effigies and getting arrested,

what will you achieve from it?

It will inspire people to unite

They will unite against the British.

By going to jail?

Revolutionaries don't
belong in jail, Subhash.

I know...

Even you are upset with the Congress.

There is another way.

Contact Ras Bihari Bose.

According to this, Japan will
soon join in the world war.

With the help of Ras Bihari Bose,

go to Germany and establish
your own government.

With the modern weapons
of Germany and Japan,

attack the British

I know, Subhash,

only you can make this possible.

The Viceroy has called
for an all-party meeting.

He's invited me as well.

After years of struggle,

the day has come
when we will speak face to face.

I will show them today.

We've come here to discuss
the terms and conditions

of giving India a dominion status.

If... India agrees
to support us in the war.

We need all parties
to come to a consensus.

We are ready to help,

provided you give us
dominion status immediately.

Only if we get a separate
state for Muslims.

Undivided India

You just leave.

It's our matter. We will sort it out.

In these dark times,

it would be low of India

to not support Britain in the war.

Remove Marshal race criterion
from induction into the army.

Make military service compulsory,
like in England.

Train Indians as officers.

Enable our industrialists
to make war equipment.

So we are armed when we are free.

England should not respond
to violence with violence.

It should rely on its moral strength.

Pakistan.

Quit India.

-Vande Mataram!
-Stay back.

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

Vande Mataram!

This isn't Quit India,
it's Split India.

All the members of India's
largest political party,

have surrendered
and are locked in jail.

What politics is this?

This will only strengthen
the Muslim League,

and succeed in
splitting Undivided India.

When negotiations had
reached an advanced stage,

we should have supported
them and taken our freedom.

Our army is fighting
from both sides anyway.

Brothers are thirsty
for each other's blood.

Subhash's Azad Hind Army
has declared their government.

For the first time in Kaala Pani,
on the land of India,

the flag of independent
India is flying high.

Savarkar.

We could have said
that we would support them,

and later we would have
turned their guns on them.

Veer Savarkar.

Another thing.

Due...

to my health,

I resign from the post
of President of Hindu Mahasabha.

The time has come to hand
over the reins to the new generation.

This is totally Gandhi's fault.

Who doesn't make mistakes?

I made mistakes too.

Why?

Nathuram is not wrong.

Even you hate Gandhi.

I don't hate Gandhi,

I hate non-violence.

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose
has tragically died in a plane crash.

He was 48 years old.

Expressing grief,
Mahatma Gandhi said,

Subhash Chandra Bose has died well.

He was undoubtedly
a patriot, though misguided.

Violence...

but how much violence.

The objective of
our violence was freedom

not destruction.

Today, you have left this world.

Tomorrow, it will be me.

I wonder if anyone
will even remember us.

Only time will tell...

Whether you were right,

or was I?

Or Gandhi.

Go without any worries,
my revolutionary Brother

Ganesh Damodar Savarkar.

The fire of revolution
that we lit cannot die.

Mayday! Mayday! This is an emergency.

Seventy-eight ships have been taken.

This is a mu--

Prime Minister, Mr. Atlee,
Your Majesty.

Your Majesty.

What's so urgent, Prime Minister.

It's about India, Your Majesty.

And I am afraid it's not good news.

We are already under pressure
from the Azad Hind Fauj.

And the unwillingness
of more and more soldiers,

returning from the Second World War,

to accept British rule,

has resulted in mass
defection to the rebel army.

And finally, as reported yesterday,

there has been a mutiny of over
20,000 Royal Indian Navy, Air Force

and Police personnel
at the Bombay Dock.

They are now an armed nation,
Your Majesty.

And we,

cannot keep them engaged
in talks anymore.

We simply cannot face an
armed revolution like in 1857.

Therefore,
the labour government and I feel

that India is just
not worth it anymore.

What are you... trying to suggest?

All I am saying is...

that Your Majesty,
won't for much longer,

be the Emperor of India.

What... do we do now?

We sent in Sir Radcliff
to split it to our advantage.

Is he well versed in the
matters of my Indian subjects?

No, Your Majesty.

That is precisely why.

You see, Your Majesty,
Winston had drawn out a plan,

for this division in 1945.

Keeping in mind, the future strategic
advantages vis-a-vis Russia.

Good old Winston.

There is something
that the government would

wish to request from you,
Your Majesty.

What can...

I do?

Ask Lord Mountbatten to front it.

The plan would be better accepted
if it was the Mountbatten plan.

After all,

he is the liberator of Burma.

My job is to hand
over the reins of India,

with peace and dignity.

Keeping in mind,

the interest and safety
of all parties involved.

You have to decide among yourselves,

who will lead free India.

Jawahar,

listen to me,

agree to make Jinnah

the first Prime Minister of India.

Gandhiji...

not the Prime Minister,

I will become someone bigger.

But that of a Muslim Pakistan.

Bapu.

Before our nation is
divided into thousands of pieces,

we should accept the division.

Over my dead body!

He isn't even listening to Gandhi!

Savarkar ji.

-What happened?
-Savarkar ji.

What happened?

Someone call the doctor.

Hey Ram! Get aside.

What happened?

Move.

Long years ago,

we made a tryst with destiny.

Now the time has
come when we shall redeem our pledge -

not wholly or in
full measure but very substantially.

At the stroke of the midnight hour,

when the world sleeps,

India will awake to life and freedom.

A moment comes,

which come but rarely in history,

when we step out
from the old to the new,

when an age ends,
and when the soul of a nation,

long suppressed, finds utterance.

It is fitting that
at this solemn moment,

we take the pledge of dedication,

to the service of India and her people

and to the still larger cause of humanity.

The plans to blow up
Pakistan's Parliament failed.

Now?

But Savarkar sir said

we should do nothing
till the 1952 elections.

To fulfil the promise of
giving 550 million to Pakistan,

and build the road from Lahore
to Dhaka to unite the Muslim brothers,

Mahatma Gandhi is fasting until death.

Hey Ram!

Hey Ram!

Godse should not have done this.

This is bad for the country.

He shot Bapu in everyone's presence.

They were all helpless.

There was no security.

But why was there no security?

He was attacked on the 20th as well.

There should have been
security all around him.

As you always said...

He thought everyone would walk
the path of non-violence as he did.

Maybe he refused security.

Maybe.

But so what if he did.

He even talked about
dissolving Congress.

Did they?

His security was the
responsibility of Congress.

First, they addressed

Gandhi as Bapu

Made him the Father of the Nation.

And when the white Lords have left, and
our own brown Lords have come into power,

they had no use left
for the Father of the Nation.

Maybe that was all the
Congress needed him for.

To strip him of what
little sympathy he had.

How can anyone take a gun and--

The police are outside. To arrest you.

Why?

In connection with Bapu's murder.

This is why security
was not increased.

Due to the lack of evidence,

and in the light of the statements
from the witnesses,

this court acquits
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar

in the case of Bapu's murder.

You are under arrest, sir.

Why?

Under the Prevention Act.

Rowlett Act.

The British left us

but left their laws behind.

Direct order from the elected
Prime Minister of India, sir.

Selected!

Selected Prime Minister.

Selected Prime Minister of India, sir.

No concern for the country's security,
playing hopscotch with neighbours

Wait.

See...

Even now Nehru is so scared of me!

It's a good thing you arrested me.

Otherwise, I would've blown up the car
of Pakistan's Prime Minister with a bomb.
