Subedar Joginder Singh (2018) - full transcript

It is a biographical feature film on India's Highest Wartime Gallantry Award - Param Vir Chakra winner Subedar Joginder Singh. He fought three wars (as per records) for India before achieving martyrdom in the Sino-Indian War of 1962 while commanding a platoon in North Eastern Frontier Agency (NEFA) (Now Arunachal Pradesh). The story portrays his character and motivation in the scene of battle.

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.

When India gained independence,

I was posted in Gurgaon
to control the civil unrest.

That's when we were informed that
Kashmir was under attack by militants.

The Sikh regiment was flown down
to Srinagar overnight.

Through various operations,
we started taking back control

of the areas occupied by them.

Even I was involved
in one such dangerous operation.

Let's go.

Come on.

Come on! Spread everywhere!



Take your positions!

Go over there!

Move ahead.

Keep moving ahead!

Soldiers...

Somebody save my daughter!

Please help!

Move ahead.

Cover him!

Run!

Come on, run!

Run!

They are coming near!

Run for your life!



Hold this!

Well done!

You're quite brave, Brother-in-law.

You play with death.

When it's about the security
of the country,

a soldier has to befriend death.

Do you get it?

You are right.

A country can't be safe
without an army.

Go to sleep now.

He is here for another month.

There's ample time to hear such stories.

Drink milk and go to sleep.

You all have to go harvesting tomorrow.

You're here to help harvest the fields.
Don't get us embarrassed.

She's right.

Let's sleep.

We must at least harvest
three fields tomorrow.

You should sleep too.

I'm not coming.
I can't sleep without dad.

Even I can't sleep without my child.

I'll sleep with her.

-What do you think?
-Yes!

Come on, boys.

Have enough milk.

I don't want anyone complaining
of being tired in the morning.

No, Brother.
We'll give it our best tomorrow.

We won't let you win.

We'll see who wins in the morning.

What do you think?

Guys, last night you were saying
you'll give in your best!

Are you already drained out?

It's just afternoon.

We make sure to finish
harvesting by evening.

Sister-in-law is here.

Let's eat first and then work.

We'll then show him how it's done.

Come on! Let's eat first.

Come on! Let's eat.

Come here, Uncle.

Come on, let's have food.

Wait a minute! I'll serve you all.

Hey! Hey!

At least enjoy your meal in peace.

This is what we all work so hard for.

I couldn't handle my hunger.

We've been really slogging it out
since morning.

Let me also know what you've achieved.

Eat like human beings.

Or else, Gurdayal,
you won't give them food.

Come on, let's have it.

Where's your discipline?

What's does "discipline" mean, Joginder?

It means nothing to you.

Go, eat.

Idiot!

-Serve me the food.
-Come on, have it.

Have it, dear.

Here you go.

What's the matter, Brother?
Why are you eating so slowly?

You should take time to chew your food.

It increases blood count.

You all took so long to eat.

Come on, let's get back to work.

-Come along.
-Coming, Uncle.

Come on now.

Have it.

Please eat, Sister-in-law.

Oh, no!

Chew properly!
It increases your blood count.

Of course! She'll chew well.

Let's go.

Come on, have it.

Brother, an announcement was
made on the radio

that all the soldiers' leaves
have been canceled.

They've been called back on duty!

This is All India Radio, Delhi.

Today's headlines.

The Government of India has decided

to deploy the army

on the North-Eastern border

in response to the ever increasing
disturbance by Chinese forces.

The Prime Minister of India,
Mr. Jawahar Lal Nehru

has appealed to all the soldiers on leave,

to cancel them and

report back to their headquarters.

And also inform your officer in charge.

Victory to India!

With that, we come to the end
of this news bulletin.

Brother, what could it be?

Dad, will you...

They need to go since they've been
called by the government.

Here you go. Give him the food.

Serve it in a plate.

I am coming.

Here, my son, have some.

Remember this when you're at war.

You can repay a mother
for her nurturing,

but you can't ever repay the motherland.

Son, promise me

you'll protect the motherland
till your last breath.

Remember the sacrifices of our Gurus.

Don't give up.

Don't worry, Mother.

Joginder does not falter.

Live long, dear.

Can't you go later?

What are you saying, Gurdayal?

Is this the first time I'm going
for a war?

I've gone so many times.

It was different then.

It was just the two of us then.

Now we have responsibilities.

Think about our children.

I am going for the sake of
many others like them.

Someone has to protect our borders.

Be grateful to the Lord,

for having chosen his disciple
for such a noble job.

May the Lord keep you safe.

I'm getting all kinds of bad thoughts.

God will take care of everything.

See me off with a smile.

Bless you, Son.

Do well, my dear.

Dad.

Yes, my princess.

What's this?

When you are away,
I'll sleep with grandma.

But, how will you sleep without me?

So, please take my favorite doll
with you.

Whenever you sleep, keep her with you.

You'll get a sound sleep.

Soldiers, the neighbors,
who we've considered friends,

and had amicable relations with...

have been infiltrating our borders
since the past few months

attacking the nearby villages

and killing innocent people.

Despite Prime Minister,
Jawahar Lal Nehru's efforts,

our enemy aren't backing off.

It doesn't seem that the issue

can be resolved peacefully any more.

So soldiers, be prepared.

It's time to teach our enemy
a befitting lesson!

Soldiers, our country has always been

a peace loving nation.

But, it doesn't mean that the enemy
can take an undue advantage.

We'll never let it happen!

We are determined to win

or die trying to save our country!

How will you sleep without me?

Please take my favorite doll with you.

Soldiers, it's time to teach
our enemy a lesson!

The Sikh regiment soldiers

can happily sacrifice their lives
for our country,

but can never let the enemy succeed
in their foul play.

I promise, as long as
Subedar Joginder Singh

and his troop are alive

the enemy cannot set foot

on our motherland till the last bullet!

Guru Gobind Singh has said,

"If your enemy compels you and
leaves you with no other option,

then it is right to pick the sword."

"When everything has been tried,
yet justice is not in sight.

It is then the right time to pick up
the sword and fight!"

Victory, in the name of the Lord!

The Lord, the ultimate truth.

Maan Singh, the demarcation line between
the two mountains is called Mc Mahon Line.

The troops of the Assam Rifles are keeping
a watch on the enemy from there.

Remember, Maan Singh

the Assam Rifles troop can only
keep a watch on the enemy.

If the enemy makes a move,

Joginder Singh and his post will be
the first in the line of fire.

You know that Joginder Singh
is the most experienced

and brave soldier from our regiment.

With him there, no one can breach his post
and move forward.

We always thought that
after Tibet was free,

we wouldn't have to give up
this area to India.

But, we're good friends with India.

India has severed that friendship

by sheltering our enemy, Dalai Lama.

You know that India is chanting
slogans of our brotherhood.

Let India remain

under this illusion.

We have to fulfill our goal.

Come here and collect your letters.

Have I got a letter?
In Santokh Singh's name?

-My mother's letter would've come.
-Easy, guys.

Take your letters.

Come and collect it.

What about my letter? Give it to me.

Is this your final decision?

Then, hear me out.

I consider you dead for me.

Get out of my sight!

What's the matter, buddy?

I've noticed that whenever
the letters come, you become sad.

What's the matter?

Nothing as such.

Listen up.

Amidst these barren mountains,

we only have each other
to share our sorrows with.

Nothing great.

My exam results came
and I passed in the first division.

I was excited to tell my father.

Father! Father!

I passed!

Great news! Good job!

-Brother, did you pass?
-Yes, Sister.

-Mom, bless me.
-May God bless you, my dear.

Son.

I'm very happy for you.

Go to Firozpur tomorrow
and fill in a form.

But, Father...

I want to go to England to study further.

You already know

that every man in this family
after his education,

serves the country by joining in the army.

But, Father, I don't want
to join the army!

If this is your final decision,

then hear me out.

I consider you dead for me.

Get out of my sight!

I was about to go abroad.

But I thought, how could I remain happy
upsetting my father?

Hence, I enrolled in the army.

After my training, I got posted here.

You fulfilled your father's dream.

Now, what's the problem?

The problem is that it was the first time
I argued with my father.

I was so ashamed
that I couldn't face him.

Bahadur Singh, you never wanted
your father to be unhappy.

But, he's still unhappy.

Write to him that his boy
has enrolled in the army.

As soon as he reads the letter,
he will be filled with pride.

Hey, Bahadur!

Hey, Saudagar!

Catch Ajaib Singh!

Catch him! Catch him!

Leave me!

Catch him.

Please let me go!

-Take this!
-Let me read...

Give me my letter back.

Listen up! Fresh off the press!

If you read my letter
any further, I'll shoot you!

You can shoot me with a cannon,
but I'll still read your letter.

-Go on. Read it.
-Listen.

My love, we're married now

but I still haven't seen your face.

Even the barber is luckier than me.

He's at least seen your face.

Give me my letter...

Let's see sister-in-law's photograph.

Wait, there's more.

My younger sister was saying that

you have green cat-like eyes.

Whenever a cat comes
and messes the utensils,

she teases me by calling it
brother-in-law.

What's so funny?

The cat!

Please! I beg you!

-Don't read any further.
-Read it.

Soldiers!

My respect, sir!

What's happening here?

Sir, Baba, Balbir and Bahadur,
these three fools

always read my love letters

and make fun of me in front
of everyone!

Never make fun of anyone's love.

What do you know of love?

We don't. Please tell us.

Son...

the moneylender has taken possession
of our land as well.

They don't even let me enter.

Come back soon, Son.

Sir, soldiers are deployed all around.

Okay. But still, be very alert.

Yes, sir.

Who's letter is it?

Tears in Nayak Santokh Singh's eyes?

Baba Singh!

Life is always full of joys and sorrows.

It's a letter from my mother.

A mother's letter brings joy.

But you look sad.

Sir, I had to pawn my land
for my father's treatment.

And I could not release it.

Don't lose heart over a land.

It's not about the land.

It's about my father's grave
on that land.

I couldn't return the money,

hence they took over the land.

They don't even let my mother
light a lamp on his grave.

Subedar Joginder Singh
is like your elder brother.

If you need money,
take my salary for a month or two.

Thank you, sir.

But, I'll save my salary
and repay my debt.

Sir, the tap at my home
is damaged too.

-If I could get half a month's salary...
-Baba Singh!

It's alright.
We'll pull buckets from the well.

Keep faith, soldier.
And write to your mother.

The Lord will take care of everything.

Oh, Lord!

Swaran, what's the matter?
Why do you look so worried?

-A lion.
-A lion?

I swear I heard a lion roar.

I may survive the Chinese
but I think this lion will eat me alive.

There's no lion in this area.

I think those three idiots
are making you one.

-What?
-A buffoon.

They trouble me too.

Forget that.

But, tell me, why are you so scared?

To tell you the truth,

I joined the army because
all my friends were doing so.

I didn't know I'd be surrounded by death.

Listen to me!
Try to overcome your fear.

The more you get scared,
the more your fear will increase.

Be a brave soldier.

What happened?

I came to give your radio.
You forgot it there.

Listen to the news.
I've heard there's a lion in the area.

I don't see Baba Singh anywhere.

He's gone to the base camp.

-Soldiers!
-Yes, sir!

-Cleaning up well?
-Yes, sir.

Keep at it.

Yes, sir.

Tear down the bunker
and trenches

or the Chinese will kill you.

Tashi, what's this old man saying?

The old man is asking us
to break down the bunker

or we will all be killed.

There's no need to worry
as long as we are here.

Please don't construct a bunker here, sir.

The Chinese soldiers consider this
as their area.

They're lying.

This area belongs to India.

But, when we tell this to the
Chinese soldiers, they get furious.

Son, you don't know
how terrifying they are.

They're very cruel.

Once a child from my village made
a small wall of stones to play with.

They couldn't tolerate even that.

They thought it to be a ploy.

The next day they came
to our village and...

Don't worry.

The government has sent us here
to protect you.

Okay.

Hurry! Move!

This land belongs to us.

If you don't want to die
at Commander Pong's hands, go back.

Commander Pong.

Even history is witness, that wherever
the Sikh regiment is posted,

even death has to change its course.

Our gurus have taught us, neither take
what's rightfully someone else's

nor let anyone seize what's ours.

"One who neither frightens anyone,

nor is afraid of anyone."

Victory, in the name of the Lord!

The Lord, the ultimate truth!

Indians and Chinese, are brothers.

Were there any casualties?

Sir, do you have any orders for me
if this happens again?

You have to stay alert
and keep an eye on the enemy's activity.

In case of any casualty
during your patrol,

you know what you need to do.

Sir, I've learnt from you.

Never let the enemy leave alive
from our area.

Sir, the enemy has fired
at Joginder Singh's post.

Delta Tiger,
you must gauge them now.

Greetings, sir!

That's strange. He didn't hear me.

Greetings, sir!

Sir, have you considered my request?

Shut up.

Stop repeating the same thing.

How did the Chinese cross
the Mc Mahon Line?

This is a grave situation.

Sir, that's why I request you
to grant me permission

to go patrolling in the enemy's area.

That too, during the day.

So that we get correct information
about their position and power.

No.

I know you have more
war experience than I do but

not just me,
even the Commanding Officer

will not give you the
permission to go there.

But Joginder is right, sir.

The Chinese army crossing
our border in broad daylight,

proves their dangerous intentions.

No, Joginder Singh.

I cannot give you the permission
to go there and risk your life.

Sir, don't worry about my life.

This information is important
for the country,

not Joginder Singh.

But, no.

But, you must give it a try, sir.

After all, the country's security
depends on it.

No. It's impossible.

I cannot allow such risky patrolling.

Joginder Singh is an emotional soldier.

And I respect his sentiments.

But, no soldier returns alive
after patrolling in the day.

Sir, Joginder Singh knows
what he's saying.

He's ready to take
this risk for the country.

Such orders can be passed only during
a war or extreme circumstances.

The enemy is misusing our friendship
to attack us in broad daylight

while we're chanting slogans
of brotherhood.

What could be worse, sir?

The country we trusted,
has stabbed us in our back.

Sir, this patrolling can help us
collect important information

about the enemy's plan
and their location.

During such a patrol, God forbid,
if there's any casualty,

it can impact the morale of our company.

Sir, you can count on Joginder Singh.

He'll return successful
from this patrol mission.

How can you be so sure?

During the Burma War, he's carried out
even more dangerous operations with me.

Come here quickly!

Get me the medical kit!

Get it quickly! Hurry up!

Joginder, go get him some water.

Go.

Here, have some water.

Have it.

Sir, do we take that as a yes?

Santokh Singh, how many are left?

Only 12 remaining.

-Report to the headquarters immediately.
-Yes, sir.

Greetings, sir!

Sir, did you hear that the government
doesn't have any bullets.

We're cleaning our guns unnecessarily.

Think about it.

If you don't have any bullets

how will you fight the Chinese?

Not "you" but "we".

Yes, sir!

You can look into it.

How did you find out?

Heard it on the news.

-Santokh Singh, confiscate this.
-Yes, sir.

-Sir, but it's not a tiny matter.
-Don't you dare!

If you ever repeat such
a cowardly act at my post,

you may even face a court martial.

I just heard it on the radio--

-Santokh Singh!
-Yes, sir.

Swaran Singh will run
with his backpack for an hour.

-Okay, sir.
-How am I at fault? I was just...

Make that two hours.

Come, shall we go or you want
to increase it by another hour?

Give me the mirror.
I want to tie my turban.

I'm tying my turban, too.

I am not looking at the
Chinese border through it.

I'll be late.
I need to be on duty now.

Your lovingly, Ajaib.

Hey!

Let go of me.

Baba, I'll tell sir.

You can tell sir while I'll tell everyone.

Return my letter.
Have some shame.

My sweet darling.

Sweetheart, I've only seen
your trembling hands.

I don't know when
that day will arrive

when you will get me a glass of milk
with your delicate hands.

I'll shoot you.

Now, I even see you in the bullets,
guns and bombs.

I will not spare you!

I even see you in
my fair complexioned friend, Saudagar.

I swear to God,
I never wrote that!

Hey, Ajaib...

Come on, run!

Let me go!

Hey...

-Yes, sir!
-Victory to India, sir!

-Stand up!
-Okay, sir!

Despite coming from the same town
you all are fighting like kids.

Is that how of
Subedar Joginder Singh's platoon behaves?

You should be ashamed of yourselves!

Sir, how can one read
someone's love letter in public?

It's so embarrassing.
As if you're... As if you're...

Naked?

Exactly!

Ajaib Singh, a brave soldier is one who
can bare his heart in front of everyone.

Sir, there are some matters which
you can't share with everyone.

Such as?

Dirty talks, sir.

Tell me.

The matters of the heart.

Matters of the...

Baba Singh.

The matters of the heart?
At the border?

Fool, it's easiest to express
your feelings.

How is that so?

Why fear to speak your heart?

He gets scared

How will you fight at the border?

Why fear to speak your heart?

How will you fight at the border?

Tell me, my friend

What are you secretly reading?

What are you secretly reading?

What are you secretly reading?

Baba Singh, what's the matter?
Tell me.

-Tell him.
-Tell him.

Sir, everyone's saying
that you've heard all our stories.

But, you haven't said anything.

You've to tell us today.

How did you get married
to sister-in-law?

Yes, sir! You have to.

After all, how did you get married
to sister-in-law?

Tell us, sir.

Sir, everyone's saying that you fell
in love before you got married...

Who says so?

Well, I said it.

Sir, please tell us.

Okay.

It was 17 years ago.

We won against Burma in second world war.

I was ecstatic.

As soon as I was granted leave,

I took the Delhi-Lahore Express
to go to my village.

I wanted to share my joy
of our victory with father.

But the train journey seemed never ending.

Sister, come fast.

Is there anyone here
who can help this old lady?

My luggage is quite heavy.

I got it, ma'am.

Thank you, son.

Bless you, child.

May the Lord bless you
with good health.

Live long!

A special place in my heart

Bachattar, what's with Joginder?

Son.

Son.

-Mother!
-Come.

-Father.
-May God bless you.

Mother.

I'll sacrifice my life for my dear.

Sister, why are you crying?

Joginder Singh has made
our village so proud.

Come on in.

Come, now.

Virender Singh, this last one
is for you.

-Mother, see how lovely this is.
-It's so beautiful.

What's the matter with you, Prito?

You didn't get anything for the
three of us?

We're not going to wear old rags
for the festival.

We are really upset with you.
Don't talk to us!

Don't worry. Next time I'll bring you
two sets of clothes each.

-Is that fine?
-That's a good idea.

Everyone's got something,
but nothing for us!

-Give them...
-I got...

Hey, whose clothes are
these in my bag?

Girls, look.

Are they yours?

Give it, Brother.

Okay. Wait!

This is for Prito.

This one's for Phino.

And this, for Bhajno.

Why did you trouble us?

Such a pretty dress.

Isn't it?
Come, give me a hug.

-Go and play.
-Let's go.

You always find happiness in others' joy.

Mom, you and dad have always taught me

a true Sikh is one
who makes others happy.

I wish you eternal success, my son.

What do our eyes

Tell each other

Come on, everyone get on.
Put this bundle away, will you?

Mother, please apply Kohl in my eyes.

Wait a minute.
Give it to me.

Take it.

-It's done.
-Okay.

Mom, why don't dad and you
come along with us to the fair?

What will we do there?

All of you can and enjoy
yourselves to the fullest.

Okay, Dad.

I'll leave then, Mom.

Wait! Let me put a black dot on you, too.

The whole village is singing praises
of your bravery.

Let no evil eye be cast upon Joginder.

Mother, put a black dot on me, too.

I'm no less handsome.

Here you go.

-What do you think?
-See you, Mom!

Bless you.

See you, Dad!

Brother, can I go for that big ride?

Yes. Go with her.

That feeling of love,
Has finally blossomed.

Like those colorful dreams

I see only a red shirt

You are in pink colored clothes

My foolish heart has fallen in love

Your beauty

Has left me sleepless

Your beauty

Has left me sleepless

Your beauty

Has left me sleepless

That feeling of love,
Has finally blossomed

I've forgotten the world,

Left only singing your praise

Your beauty has slain me,
Leaving no remains

Your stunning youth,

Has permeated my core

Your beauty

Has left me sleepless

Your beauty

Has left me sleepless

That feeling of love,
Has finally blossomed

After all, every path

Leads to you

Your love is my

Night sentinel

Your love is like a pearl

in the string of my life

Your beauty

Has left me sleepless

Your beauty

Has left me sleepless

That feeling of love,
Has finally blossomed

What happened?
Where were you?

Let's go.

It's the harvest month.

We won't be able to organize a wedding.

It's a busy season and
we won't be able to call everyone.

No! Joginder has come for leave.

We have to get him married
before he goes back.

She is right.

It is better to get them married now.

Can I get my cannon for you
the next time?

Joginder's here.

-Greetings.
-Greetings.

Don't just greet him.
Take his blessings.

He's your father-in-law.

We've fixed your alliance
with his daughter, Gurdayal.

Uncle's words splintered my heart.

Come on! Go!

Hands up!

Stop! Stop!

Bahadur Singh.

If you dare to cross the border again

Subedar Joginder Singh won't let you
leave the Indian soil alive.

I'm forgiving you considering
this your last mistake.

But, remember, we have Punjabi blood
running in our veins.

When it's a matter of our nation,
we don't wait for orders.

We'll blow your heads off!

Get going.

Move it!

The enemy is constantly
crossing the border

and attacking Joginder Singh's
post number 11.

They might even be taking position
near the Mc Mahon Line,

and strengthening their forces.

Haripal Kaushik.

We have to immediately gauge
the enemy's position and powers

Sir, as we had requested earlier,

this job can only be done
by patrolling enemy territory.

Sir, I request you...

I'll speak to the headquarters
about patrolling.

But we've to be careful about one thing.

Until we receive orders,

there must be no enemy casualty.

Sir, do we wait for the enemies
to shoot us?

I understand your situation very well.

But until we get orders
from the government to open fire,

you'll have to bear with it.

Everything alright, Santokh Singh?

Until I don't get the orders
to blow the heads of the enemy,

nothing's going to be alright, sir.

I respect your spirit,
Santokh Singh.

But, my hands are tied.

As soon as I receive orders
to open fire at the enemy,

I swear by the Lord,

Joginder Singh's unit will
decimate the enemy.

Truth, in the name of Lord.
Lord, our true king.

Keep your blessings with us, Lord.

You wretched Chinese!

Come out!

It's because of you...
It's because of you, I don't get leave.

He keeps saying the same thing!

"Fight these Chinese first.

Then, you can meet your bride."

Enough, now!

If the Chinese hear your rant, their
first bullet will be shot on my head.

Nothing will happen to you.

-You hear me?
-I think he'll get us killed.

-Get out!
-Lord, keep us safe.

You don't even know what it's like
to bring your wife home!

Are you so shameless?

You rascals, come out.

Sir, Ajaib Singh.

Shall I call him?

Bahadur Singh.

-Sir?
-Bring him.

Yes, sir.

What do you know
of our wedding customs?

You burst all the fireworks
even before Diwali.

Please fight with us!

I, Ajaib Singh is waiting for you!
Come out!

Get him down.

-Ajaib Singh...
-Yes.

This has become
an everyday thing now.

Sir has been hearing all this
for an hour now.

He has called for you.

You are going to do
some more rounds of punishment.

I'm in trouble now because of you!

Come on.

What did he say?
Am I going to get punished?

Sir, please punish him.

Ajaib Singh, how many times do
I have to explain to you?

I can't grant you leave under these
circumstances.

Look me in the eye
and speak, Ajaib Singh.

Sir, everyone makes fun of me.

No one knows how I feel.

I'm waiting for the Chinese here,

and my new bride
is waiting for me at home.

I'm stuck, sir.

But, forget that, sir.

No one can understand my feelings.

Shall we plaster your heart
with cement?

Baba Singh!

Ajaib Singh, don't worry.

I understand your pain very well.

Don't you know, the same thing
happened to sir.

He was in love with someone,

but his father forced him
to marry someone else.

Baba Singh, don't talk nonsense.

Take your positions.

For us, your story's still a mystery.

Why don't you tell us
what happened finally?

Bahadur Singh!

Please tell your story, sir.

It's possible that listening to your story
might make me feel better.

It's nothing about a girl, Uncle.

Buddy...

What happened?

-Sit.
-What happened?

Don't pull out my arm.

My life's at stake and you're worried
about your arm.

Promise me that
you won't tell anyone.

I won't tell anyone.

We're in a big dilemma.

You are a very sly man.

Oh my God, Sister!

You've brought disgrace to father.

Don't scare me.

What should I do?

There's nothing we can do.

You'll get married tomorrow.

And in a year, you'll have a son.

A son? How can that happen?

I won't marry. That's it!

Your father will thrash you
with his shoes.

Just keep mum! There isn't much
that you've to forget about him.

You don't even know his name.

-Nipa!
-Coming, Aunt.

-Come fast.
-You'll land me in trouble, too.

It would be worth trying
if you knew anything about her.

You don't even know
where she's from.

Why are you getting so worked up?

Wasting my time!

Bachattar, aren't you my friend?

Don't just invite your friend.

I've bought new clothes
for your wedding reception, too.

Don't forget me.

I'll take you for the wedding, too.

I'll even take you for war.

What do we do?

Nothing. I didn't hear a thing.

Quick. Quick.

Greetings, everyone.

Greetings.

Come on, young man.
Take his blessings.

Come on. Go and meet them.

Bless you.

Be happy.

Here, some sweets.

-Hope everything is alright.
-Thank you.

All the guests are eating.

And my to be brother-in-law
is sitting hungry.

I've made these flatbread myself.

I'm not hungry.

Oh, your love for our sister
has already killed your hunger.

Save some love
for the sisters-in-law, too.

I would love to eat
what you've cooked,

but I feel you're up to some mischief.

Who's even talking to you?

Who's feeding you?

No matter who eats
it's the same thing.

There is no comparison between you
and our brother-in-law.

You look like you are always hungry.

Feeding the hungry is a noble task.

Is it?

Fine. Here you go, then.

Let's have it.
She has given it with love.

Eat it.

Isn't it delicious?

Your sisters-in-law are no less.

Watch out for them
over the next three days!

Since the day I've fixed her wedding,

Gurdayal seems to be very sad.

Well, you've found a lovely match for her.

He serves the British army.

Gets a good salary, too.

Mom.

Why don't you tell her all this?

Her sadness will vanish.

No way. Who tells a girl
these things?

She doesn't need to know about
the boy and his work details.

Look at this, how pretty it is.

Here, eat something.

Come on girls, go to sleep.

Enough dancing.
You have to wake up early tomorrow.

You have to be up early.

See?

Brother, it's not something
that you've lost just once.

You've lost it twice.

Once in the train and then at the fair.

That girl's not for you.

This is the girl in your destiny.

However she is,
I'm sure she'll be just fine.

Can't you keep this to yourself?

What could I do?

I thought you'd run away.

Brother, please don't even think
of running away.

Father's dignity is at stake.

Look at those girls near the well.

Is it appropriate for me
to checkout the girls?

If someone sees us,
all the guests will get beaten up.

How will dad explain as to how
everyone got beaten up?

Have an answer to that?

Look at that girl in the turquoise scarf.

She's so pretty.

Like the moon.

Her teeth shine like pearls.

Her eyes are like a doe's.

Her cheeks, red as tomatoes.

Isn't it?

Don't stare at Joginder's sister-in-law.

I think the truth is something else.

Brother, it's not what you think.
I was just...

I was just trying to prove to Joginder

that if the younger sister
is so beautiful,

imagine how gorgeous
the older one will be.

You're younger than me.
So, behave well.

Don't try to teach me.

She always brightens up
a wedding home.

What happened to you, dear?

Go, give this to your aunt.

Instead of helping me out,
you've spread the news across the village.

I haven't told anything to anyone.

Besides, he's your brother.

-He is younger than me.
-When did I say he's elder?

These matters are discussed with
the elders, not the young ones.

But, how will you know that?
Bloody fool.

I feel like punishing you
and have you court marshaled.

I'm sorry. I was only trying
to save your family honor.

Rubbish! Such indiscipline.

You need to follow some rules.

Listen, Bachattar.

It's wrong to peep into someone's house.

Joginder, look.
What a heavenly sight!

-Don't be crazy.
-Come here.

Oh, no. Save us!
Trouble is here.

Are you slyly seeing my sister?

I don't know about your village,

but here, peeping is considered
an offense.

What are you saying?
I was just...

Bachattar is calling me.
Yes, Bachattar, I'm coming...

Brother-in-law, remember one thing.

People out here come to know everything.

Don't just keep staring at it.
Brother-in-law, find the gold.

Or will you first sing us a song?

Look at these girls troubling the groom.

Let him be.

Let the girls spend time
with their brother-in-law.

They won't get such a chance again.

Is the day starting or getting over?

Get ready to see your daughter off.

Come on. Get up.

We won't spare brother-in-law.

Not until he finds the gold
from this vessel.

Brother-in-law, can I talk to you?

Tell me.

Not in front of these idiots.

Can we talk over there?

Go ahead.

Now that you are married to my sister,
we've formed a relationship for life.

In spite of my family forbidding me,
I can't hide the truth from you.

What is it?

Promise me first that you will say
nothing to my sister.

I won't.

My sister doesn't look like me at all.

Actually, she doesn't look
like anyone in the family.

Her complexion is quite dark.

She also has buckteeth.

But, honestly, she's very talented...

Enough.

Everything has happened by God's will.

Bachattar, this is a beautiful village.

I feel like coming here
again and again.

Shall I ask your father to get you
married off next week to Bachan Kaur?

The whole family is afflicted with love!

The younger one wants to follow
the soldier's footsteps.

-Congratulations!
-Congratulations to you, too!

Come, let's go.

Brother, let's go.

My goodness! So beautiful!

Here, have some sweets.

Mother, come fast.
Brother is here with his wife.

Sister-in-law, say something.

Our sister-in-law is pretty
but very quiet.

She hasn't said a word since she's come.

I hope sister-in-law's not mute.

Come on, girls, go to sleep.

Let your sister-in-law rest, too.

She must be very tired.

-Brother, listen up.
-What is it?

Is Joginder with you?

No. What happened?

I can't find him.

-I think he has flown away.
-What will we do now?

What do we tell everyone?

Your father will get humiliated.

How will I marry Bachan now?

You better forget about getting married.

They'll have to think
about this girl, too.

I'm sure they will get her married to you.

Bachattar, I can't live without
Bachan anymore.

Don't worry, my friend.

If the younger one is fair,
the older one must be peaches and cream.

If the younger one is doe-eyed,
the older one must be the same.

If the younger one is fire,
the older one must be a firecracker!

Please spare me.

I'll get you my brother's gun.
Just shoot me.

Joginder.

-It's not required now.
-It is!

You haven't gone to your room yet?
I'll take you inside.

Aunt, I...

Aunt...

You got saved.

I'll take him.

Don't waste time talking.

It's time to close the gates.
Go to your room. Don't hesitate.

Latch it from inside.

My sister doesn't look like me at all.

Actually, she doesn't look
like anyone in the family.

Her complexion is quite dark.

She also has buckteeth.

Greetings!

Before leaving, my mother told me

that if I wanted a happy life,

I shouldn't keep any secrets
from my husband.

Now that we are married,

you mean the world to me.

That's why, I wanted to share something
personal with you.

If I don't, it'll be a sin.

A few days ago, I was going by train
to my grandparents' house.

I saw a very handsome man there.

And I felt as though
the Lord had made him for me.

That's the last thing I needed.

Since then, I've been dreaming

of a life with him.

Then one day at the fair,

he appeared before me out of nowhere

in a maroon outfit.

Then he vanished.

We've never spoken to each other.

If I'm lying,
I'll turn to ashes right away.

Are you saying that you would've been

happier if you'd married that guy?

Yes, I'd definitely be happier
if I married him.

But now, it's a sin
to even think about it.

And, what if you meet him again?

God forbid!

I won't even look at another man now.

Don't do that.

You never know, your dream man

and I might turn out
to be the same person.

Oh God!

Sir, you're very lucky.

Sir, God has answered your prayers.

Greetings, sir!

We'll not spare them.

Joginder Singh, your request
has been approved.

You've got permission for patrolling.

This operation will have a team of seven.

-Joginder Singh.
-Sir.

-You'll lead the team.
-Yes, sir.

Remember, this is a
very dangerous operation.

You won't find a place
to hide during the day.

Carelessness can cost a life.

It's because we don't know where
exactly the enemy are hiding.

Don't worry, sir.

Joginder Singh very well knows to
dodge the enemy and get the information.

Please explain the plan.

Sir, we're here.

This is the Bumla border.

According to the area expert,
this is the best route.

Because it's least risky.

Sir, there's another route.

It's long enough but the enemy
won't be able to spot you.

This is the route.

Maan Singh, we shouldn't
ignore his input.

Yes, sir.

-Joginder Singh.
-Sir!

Sir, they are right
next to the Mc Mahon Line.

They are three times more than us.

The Sikh regiment doesn't bother about
the number of people while fighting.

Stay alert!

Sir, the officer at the
opposite post seems very sharp.

We've been informed
that they've just patrolled our area.

How many soldiers are they in total?

Around 25 soldiers.

Pong, we're in thousands.

We can't change our plan
because of one sharp officer.

We have to capture
this post to takeover Tawang.

Okay, sir.

Sir, according to Joginder Singh's report,

the enemy is preparing
to attack from the Mc Mahon Line.

I don't trust the enemy's intentions, sir.

In case of an attack,

Joginder Singh's post number 11
will require ammunition.

I request you to immediately
make all the arrangements.

All right.

I'll submit my report to the headquarters

and arrange for the ammunition.

Order all your troops to stay alert.

Yes, sir!

-Soldiers.
-Yes, sir!

Today, none of the trenches
in our area should be empty.

While keeping an eye on the enemy,

every soldier should always
keep a weapon along!

Everyone should be alert!

-Any doubts?
-No, sir.

Bahadur Singh! Bahadur Singh!

Here's a letter for you.

Isn't it from your father.

Dad's asking me to come
and meet him quickly.

That's a great news.

The enemy can make a move
any moment. We'll need the ammunition.

Please send it as soon as possible, sir.

Yes, sir.

Sir, you've never responded
to any of my requests yet.

Every solider has a story to tell.

But my father has no story.

The whole village taunts my father
by calling him a sentry in the army.

When I go home to my village,

everyone taunts me
by calling me a "little watchman".

Sir, only you can help me
by sending me on the front lines of war.

-Do you have anything else to say?
-No, sir!

So, you can get back on your duty.

Okay, sir!

Even after giving money which you sent me
to the moneylender

he is saying that he won't let me
light a lamp at your father's grave

until you sign the documents.

Come as soon as possible.

We'll go together and light the lamp
at your father's grave.

Her name is always on your lips.

Thinking of our sister-in-law,

He keeps looking for her
In his heart.

He keeps looking for her
In his heart.

If a man doesn't get to have
his nuptial night

then every day seems like an eternity.

Sit down.

Why are you always simmering
in frustration?

You are always joking.

-We've got a solution for your misery.
-Yes.

How did sir's brother
describe his sister-in-law?

How did he say her face was?

Like a moon.

And, what about her eyes?

Like a doe.

Her cheeks?

Like tomatoes.

What did her teeth look like?

Like pearls!

Oh, boy!

Sister-in-law seems to be very pretty.

Oh, wow! She looks beautiful.

Look properly, Ajaib Singh.

For now, you'll have to make do
with this photo.

The way things are going on,
I don't think you'll get a leave.

-All well, boys?
-Yes, sir!

-Ajaib Singh!
-Yes, sir?

Pack your bags.

Your leave has been sanctioned.

Sir, is my leave actually sanctioned?

With sweets prepared for me

My pretty wife will be

Waiting for me.

Ajaib.

Please convey my message to my father.

Tell him that his son
looks very handsome in the uniform.

Definitely, Brother.

If you get the time,
please visit my village as well.

Brother, I'll be back real quick.

I'm only going to see her face.

Let it be.

You won't come back so soon.

-We know how it works.
-No way.

Ajaib, my village is very close
to your village, too.

If you get some time,

please tell my mother that
her son will come home soon.

I'll surely tell her.

Baba Singh, don't you want
to send any message?

Your village is close to mine, too.

I'm happy that your leave is sanctioned.

If you're going to my village

then, please tell my mother

that I'll get my younger sister married
when I'm back.

She's not just your sister, but ours too.

We'll all get her married.

-Won't we?
-Surely, we will.

You haven't slept as yet?

No, sir.

Not feeling sleepy tonight.

The Chinese army has destroyed
the Assam Rifles

and is marching towards your post.

Ajaib Singh, take care of yourself.

-May the Lord be with you.
-Sir, may the Lord be with you.

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

Baba!

Baba!

Baba Singh...

Baba Singh...

Fast! Be quick!

Baba!

Wait.

The enemy's not in our range.

There's a big difference
between their guns and ours.

Don't fire until their heads
are clearly visible.

Okay, sir.

Ajaib Singh, the bullets are over.
Bring them quickly.

Yes, sir.

Ajaib Singh, deliver bullets
to section one and section three.

-Quick.
-Okay, sir.

Take it.

All our soldiers are getting killed.

-Don't send them forward.
-Shut up!

If our soldiers are dying, the enemy's
bullets are also getting over.

No, sir.

-Okay, sir.
-Go!

Come on!

Dammit!

Ajaib!

Get down!

Come on, Bahadur.
Move!

We did you save me?

It's because your wife is waiting for you.

Your father's waiting for you too.

Sir, the machine gun from section one
have stopped firing.

The enemy's still advancing towards us.

They're coming here to die.

Take charge. I'll check.

What's our casualty, Joginder Singh?

There's been heavy casualty, sir.

What about the enemy?

The enemy's casualty is much more.

Sir, somehow make arrangements
for the weapons.

As long as there are weapons
at Joginder Singh's post

I will keep the enemy at bay.

I'll arrange the weapons,
Joginder Singh.

Hold on to the post.

Don't let the enemy come forward.

Yes, sir!

Sir, now that we're at war

I should also be given a chance
to attack the enemy.

Come on, let's go.

-Have some water.
-Come on, go quickly.

Sir...

Mahinder...

Come on, be quick.

Come on, keep it here.

That's not a problem.

Bahadur Singh, you're injured.

You should go down
to the base immediately.

Sir, the Lord says that

"He alone is a hero,
who fights the spiritual battle.

He may be cut apart in pieces, but,
never does he desert the battlefield."

Sir!

Just stay here.

Please stay...

Soldier, not everybody
gets the opportunity

to sacrifice their life for their country.

God has given you
the opportunity to do so.

Take this.

Deliver this ammunition
to Joginder Singh's post right away.

And fulfill your desire to blow the enemy.

Sir, with this order, you've fulfilled
my family and my dream.

Soldier, don't waste time.

Yes, sir!

Sir! Maan Singh has sent
the weapons for you.

Bhaag Singh,
what are you waiting for?

The enemy is in front of you. Fire!

Sir, can I shoot too?

Bhaag Singh, fire!

This is your only chance
to put an end to all the taunts.

Keep the gun on the trench,
aim and fire!

Remember, one bullet, one enemy!

Yes, sir!

Bhaag Singh!

Santokh, my family...

will now be proud...

Bhaag Singh!

Hey! Come on, get up.

Come on.

Thank you, buddy.

Swaran Singh

stop being scared.

You're an Indian soldier.

Cowards die many deaths,
but the brave one only die once.

Be brave.

Very good, Ajaib Singh.

Well done! You saved Swaran Singh's life.

By the Lord's grace, you are also safe.

Sir! The Lord's will has prevailed.

What do you mean?

Sir, we'll now meet in the next life.

Ajaib Singh.

Swaran Singh! Swaran Singh!

Yes, sir!

Sir, you're hurt.

Bahadur Singh,
don't worry about me.

Kill the enemy.

Sir, if I kill two, four come out.

If I kill ten, 20 come out.

They're like ants. They don't get over.

Blow them up with a bomb.
Bring the bombs, Bahadur Singh.

Bahadur Singh!

Bahadur Singh.

Bahadur Singh.

Bahadur.

Bahadur.

Bahadur. Bahadur.

Bahadur.

My father...

All troops are ordered to retreat from
their posts and return to headquarters.

Sir, only five soldiers are left.

The enemy may return.

Please send the weapons
as soon as possible.

Joginder Singh,

the enemy has deceitfully attacked
all our posts at the same time.

We don't need ammunition anymore.

The headquarters have ordered

all posts to save their lives and retreat.

Joginder Singh, I know I've taught you,

when it is about the country's security,

a soldier never retreats
under any circumstance.

But now, I order you to return

with the surviving soldiers.

This soil is my mother, sir.

And it now has my brothers' blood.

I cannot retreat from here
and deceive my friends and my motherland.

No matter what happens, sir

Joginder Singh won't retreat
from this post.

Joginder, don't be stubborn.
Just come back.

Think about your family.

Sir, the Lord has entrusted me

to take care of my countrymen.

If anything happens to me,

I'm sure my countrymen

will take good care of my family.

Joginder, try to understand.

Come back.

I don't want to lose you at any cost.

Our country needs brave people like you.

I know you love me

and until now, I've followed
every order of yours.

But, I'm sorry.

I can't follow this one.

If possible, send more ammunition.

God will take care.

Oh Lord...

please take care of Joginder Singh
and his soldiers.

To destroy the Sikh regiment,

we have to attack from three directions.

Son, a mother's debt can be repaid,
for her nurturing.

But the debt to the motherland
can't ever be repaid.

Protect the motherland,
till your last breath.

Don't falter.

We are happily going to

Sacrifice our life to you, O mother

O my country, my every birth

Is to serve you

My motherland is more important to me

Than my life

I give my blood

For my motherland

I will shine as a star

from your sky

O my country, my every birth

Is to serve you

I did not turn my back and run

tell my mother about it

I have fulfilled my duty here,

But could not repay your debt

I did not turn my back and run,

Tell my mother that.

I have fulfilled my duty here,

But could not repay your debt

I could not repay your debt,
For nurturing me

O mother, always be there

To comfort me

I've consigned my blood

On the soil of my motherland

I will shine as a star

From your sky

O my country, my every birth
Is to serve you

My every birth!

Sir, we are out of bullets.
We have no ammunition left.

Sir, they are coming closer
and are large in number.

Sir, it's over.

I want the Indian Commander alive.

Let me see how long

he can survive before Pong.

Death's in front of you.

You should return.

The headquarters has ordered us
to do so, as well.

What about you, sir?

I have made my decision, Santokh Singh.

How will we fight
without ammunition, sir?

You don't need ammunition to win a war.

But courage.

Victory, in the name of the Lord!

The Lord, the ultimate truth!

Can someone tell me when my dad
will be back?

He is his father.

Greetings.

-Greetings.
-Greetings.

Subedar Joginder Singh...

achieved martyrdom in enemy captivity

on the fourth of December.

Mother, what happened?
Uncle, what happened?

He bravely fought for and protected

the country till his last breath.

The Indian Army and the whole country

will always be very proud of him,

for his courage and patriotism.

Be strong. Be strong.

-My dear...
-Uncle!

Surjeet!

What's happened?

Surjeet!

Surjeet! Surjeet!

-What's happened?
-Oh, Lord!

Surjeet!

What's happened to my daughter?

Surjeet!

Surjeet!

Open your eyes!

What's happened to my child?

Surjeet!

What happened to my child?

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
