As-salaam 'alaykum, Sajid.
Altaf bhai.
You got out. You should be thanking us.
What for?
Because we saved you from the police.
But why?
-What had I done that you... -Faizan bhai sends his regards.
He has big plans for you.
He doesn't want you caught for petty IED blasts.
That's why he asked me to get you out.
They had no evidence against me.
Why take a chance?
That's why we put Kareem as bait.
To get their eyes off of you.
Kareem?
Kareem Bhat?
We knew those software idiots would spill the beans about the drop box.
So, we sent them on the wrong trail.
What happened to him?
He was martyred.
Whatever happened was tragic, but there was no other way.
We led him to the drop box.
Whatever happened after that was on him.
What does Faizan bhai want from me?
Only he knows.
But he did say that
after this, people will call 26/11 child's play.
Rest. And don't go back to the hostel.
Look for a new place to stay.
I'll meet you again. May God be with you.
May God be with you.
-What's his FiO2? -Sir, it's 60.
-Make it to 30, please. -Yes, sir.
-Call Dr. Patel immediately. -Yes, sir.
And, you, inform the ATS, please.
We had information that
a drop box was being used for terrorist activities.
Kareem used that drop box.
You found out about this drop box
through the three IT employees whom you arrested. Is that right?
Yes, sir. Each one had individually confirmed this.
Did you think that this drop box could be used
by a person not involved with terrorist activities?
It didn't occur to me then.
What do you think now?
Now, I think that
somebody deliberately made Kareem...
...use that drop box.
I think he was framed.
Framed?
Was there any evidence against Kareem
besides the fact that he used that drop box?
This is Standard Operating Procedure, sir.
Often, we need to take action based on little evidence.
The suspect was kept under surveillance.
What did you find?
Actually, we heard Kareem talking to two of his associates.
-Iqbal and Nissar. -Yes, sir.
They were planning to attack MP Deshpande.
It's written here that
you heard them discuss van, guest list and floor plan.
Yes, sir. We thought they were
going to launch an attack.
The only difference is
you didn't know it was this sort of an attack.
No, sir.
Mr. Sharma's report mentions that
Kareem had never been officially arrested.
But he was always under surveillance because of his actions.
Throwing ink on a politician,
writing anti-government blogs.
Is that right, Mr. Srikant?
Yes, sir. But our actions are never based on
a person's political views.
Mr. Sharma, what is your assessment?
Sir, my assessment is the same.
Srikant is very impulsive.
He does get carried away sometimes.
And sometimes, he doesn't follow rules.
He makes decisions without bothering about the process.
In some cases, his approach has benefited us.
Yet, we can't keep overlooking his mistakes.
But in this case, sir,
the evidence against Kareem and his associates
were sufficient enough to act on.
So, what we gather is, Mr. Srikant,
is that you had a suspect who had anti-government views.
He had used a terrorist drop box,
and had planned an attack with his associates on a MP.
In such little time, it was impossible
for your team to figure out what the attack was.
-Yes, sir. -We believe that
you had a valid reason to target Kareem.
And as far as their shooting is concerned,
it looks like a Force One call and not TASC's.
Force One commander Pasha and his team
got carried away and shot them.
Mr. Srikant, the decision to shoot was Force One's.
Is that right?
This was my operation.
Every decision taken was mine.
Whatever happened,
if someone should be held accountable,
then I should be held responsible.
It'll hurt a bit. You'll get better soon.
That friend of yours regained consciousness today.
How is he?
He had regained consciousness, but fell unconscious again.
The doctor says he'll be all right soon.
Praise be to God. I had lost all hope.
This wound has healed.
It won't hurt much now.
The doctor is saying you'll be discharged soon.
I will...
Come in.
Have you heard of Basharat Ali?
Kashmir.
He's waiting for you in Srinagar.
What happened?
I haven't been to Srinagar since long.
The city reminds me of my brother.
He was 14
when these bastards shot him.
He was returning from school.
He saw a procession.
People were raising slogans.
He joined them.
It was a peaceful procession from Lal Chowk to Jama Masjid.
No stone-pelting, no furore, nothing.
We have faced many atrocities.
But we'll avenge them all.
God has chosen you for this mission.
-What's all this? -This is a ticket to Srinagar.
You'll need to leave soon.
Who else is involved in this mission...
Mission Zulfiqar.
Nobody knows anything.
Don't be offended, Altaf bhai,
but I know nothing about this mission.
And I work in my own way.
Which is why, before I do anything, I want to speak to Faizan bhai once.
Each of us has been given a task.
We get orders from the top
and do what has been asked of us.
I was told to meet you.
I did that. That's all they asked of me.
Basharat's phone number is fed into this phone.
Speak to him.
If Sharma finds out we're in the hospital, he'll suspend us.
The investigation has still not ended.
We can keep doing our job till then.
As soon as Asif regains consciousness, we'll start grilling him.
Nobody knows what is Mission Zulfiqar?
Only he knows what Mission Zulfiqar is.
Hey, Tiwari, we're not in a position to give orders.
Sharma has issued a memo and screwed everyone.
Hello, Doctor.
-Hi. -What's the update?
He had regained consciousness some time back. I think he's stable now.
But it will take time for him to talk.
Is there any more danger?
No, no. He'll live.
And one more thing,
-the one who was shot in the arm... -Moosa.
-His name is Moosa Rahman. -Yes, that one.
He's fine now. He's in a bit of pain, but we can discharge him very soon.
Okay. Thanks.
You wait here. I'll be back.
Rest as much as you want to.
The doctor said you'll be fine soon.
Once you are discharged,
you won't be sleeping royally like this.
Tell me something useful soon,
or get ready for some intensive care by the police.
Think. Think fast. I'll be back.
Atharv.
Hello, Atharv.
Put the mouth organ down.
-Mom. -Yes.
I need the laptop. Will you take time?
Yes. Write in your notebook.
Come on, Mom. This is so annoying.
What? What did you say?
What are you doing?
Fixing the house.
Oh, God. Has everybody gone mad in this house?
This is so annoying!
Atharv.
Cut it out, man.
May I come in, sir?
No, it's all right, sir.
You just had to say yes.
They were already saying that the three deaths were Force One's fault.
They were looking to clear you.
Sir, you gave me responsibility,
-so, the consequences... -I know that.
And, yes, there are consequences.
You are being transferred to Srinagar...
Temporarily.
The lead analyst is on maternity leave.
In a few months, she'll be back, and so will you.
You're lucky you haven't been suspended.
If it had been anybody else, he'd be packing his bags by now.
Thank you, sir. Thank you for your support.
Don't thank me. Thank Kulkarni.
He spoke to the officers and set things up for you.
What's the bloody hurry?
You! You there!
I was about to park my car here. Take yours out.
Come on, uncle. I parked already.
-You park somewhere else. -You don't seem to get it.
Move your car out of here.
Your blood pressure will soar, uncle.
What did you say about my blood pressure?
Get up. You bastard.
-Who did you call uncle? -Dad!
What are you doing?
Nothing, son. We were just playing.
That's my son. Say hello.
Say hello. He's my son.
-Say hello. -Hello.
We were just playing. Get out of here.
Don't tell Mom anything.
What?
I'm talking about what you saw.
-Hello? -What?
Who'll say, "Okay, Papa?"
I feel like having pizza.
You ate pizza just this Saturday.
I feel like having it again.
-Okay, I'll get it tomorrow. -I want it now.
Why did he get pizza?
How come I never get it when I ask for it?
-You want pizza? -Yes.
No problem.
Dad, an ice cream, too.
The shop's on the way.
Sure, son, why not?
One second.
You're agreeing to all his demands.
-What do you have against me? -Nothing against you, my dear.
Do you want an ice cream, too?
You have it, too.
-Hello, Sri. -Hello, sir.
Sir, can I disturb you for a minute, sir?
Tell me.
Sir, I think I've made a huge mistake.
Sri, you know I trust your judgment.
I'm a little surprised that you made such a mistake.
Sir, I'm upset about the fact that
that we didn't just kill them,
we're also killing their reputation now.
Sir, they were not terrorists.
Their families deserve to know this.
Because now,
the world will taunt them all their lives.
Sir, I think I should tell the truth.
-I'll face the aftermath. -Don't do it, Sri.
Sir, we... Actually, I...
-Murdered them. -Listen, Sri.
Calm down.
If you tell the world you have murdered
three innocent boys,
it'll be a disaster.
The media, human rights groups,
they'll be all over us.
This will totally undermine our fight against terrorism.
Please see the big picture.
I don't know who is wrong, sir.
Is there any difference left between us and them, sir?
There's a very big difference.
And the difference is that they only need to win once.
But we have to win every time.
We are at war, Sri.
Kareem was not a terrorist.
Please.
What are you doing, Tiwari!
Take it easy, buddy.
Won't you have anything to drink?
Years ago, my father threw me out of the house.
You know why?
He thought I was killing my Muslim brothers
in the name of duty.
He said that if I side with the infidels,
then God will send me to hell.
You know what I told him?
I said, "Dad, go fuck yourself."
I'm not killing my brothers. I'm killing terrorists.
They murder innocents.
And today, I have murdered innocents.
-We're all murderers. -Yes.
And now,
I'm left with neither work nor respect.
Will you two stop being melodramatic, please?
You have screwed up. You have screwed up.
We're all screwed up.
We're all killers.
But it was a mistake. Nobody killed them deliberately.
It doesn't matter whether it was a mistake or not.
We killed them.
Now we're defaming them.
Everybody's calling them terrorists.
We need to tell their parents at least
that their children were not terrorists.
We fucked up.
But it is a question of national security!
-So the truth can take a flying fuck? -No!
There is the truth.
And then, there's the country.
Please don't do anything hasty.
You mean suicide?
I'm a Force One commando.
-Don't worry about me. -That's not what I'm saying.
Did I say that?
This is getting too depressing!
What are you doing?
Haven't you slept?
No...
Even this one's come.
You don't want to go to school tomorrow?
Why aren't you sleeping?
Don't you have to go to college tomorrow?
Tomorrow...
No, I quit my job at the college.
I got a new job.
What? When?
-What? When? -You didn't even tell us!
You didn't even tell us!
I'm telling you now!
-Only after I asked you. -Only after I asked you.
You treat me like a child!
Suchi, you should have told me at least.
But why? What is this new job about?
Relax, dear! I'll tell you everything tomorrow.
Now go to sleep!
Okay, Suchi. Let's have a chat tomorrow.
Run along now!
I'm going to come back in five minutes.
You'll get a beating if you don't sleep.
I love you too, Suchi.
Moosa?
What happened?
Are you in pain?
I'll tell the doctor to give you more painkillers...
What happened to you?
I don't want to get better.
Then, do you want stay in a hospital like this?
If I recover,
they'll pick me up and throw me in some corner.
They'll kill me, Mary.
Don't be like that.
God is with you.
I don't know about God.
Thank God you are with me.
I'm telling you, everything will be fine.
Have faith in God.
Tomorrow is my mom's birthday.
We share the same birthday.
We used to celebrate every year.
Mom would cook for us.
Chicken rice, beef...
Prawn curry is my favorite.
Dad used to visit the north,
and had learnt how to cook paratha.
All of us used to sit in a circle
on the floor and eat.
Dad would tell us stories about places he had visited.
Rajasthan...
Punjab...
Gujarat.
All of them must be thinking about you, right?
Your sister must be
in college now, right?
She's dead.
They killed her.
Dad too.
Only Mom is alive.
She must be sitting all alone at home.
And I can't even wish her
on her birthday.
It's your birthday in fifteen minutes!
Listen.
Don't utter a word about this to anybody.
Or I'll be in deep trouble.
Take this.
Happy birthday!
Call your mom,
and wish her.
Quick!
And listen...
Talk softly.
Mom!
Mom, it's me!
Happy birthday, Mom. Happy birthday!
Thank you, thank you.
Allah Hafiz, Mom.
Will you be back before my holidays begin?
Definitely.
Don't lie to me, Dad.
I'm telling you I'll be back by then.
JK, tell me the truth please?
He's telling you the truth.
He's going for a training workshop to Srinagar.
You don't have to worry about anything.
Papa, please don't go!
I'll call you every day.
Okay?
Don't trouble Mom too much.
Okay?
Promise?
You two are fighting, aren't you?
It's obvious. I'm not a kid.
Really?
You've grown up a lot.
Our Sri is going to Srinagar!
Sri, Srinagar? No?
Will you lie to me, too?
Nobody can lie to you and your husband!
Actually,
there's an inquiry going on against him.
So, this is a punishment of sorts.
But don't worry.
He's our big boss Kulkarni's favorite.
He won't let him stay there for long.
I hope he's not going on a mission or something?
Oh, God.
There's no mission, Suchi!
Don't worry! Everything's fine.
How much longer, Sri?
Don't be glued to your phone all the time.
-Take care of him. -Help him with his homework.
Put him to sleep on time. I know all that, okay!
-Now will you answer my question, please? -What?
Is everything fine between Mom and you? You two cool?
-What do you mean? -Shut up!
You get a glass of water.
Go!
You just focus on playing your flute and harmonica.
Got it? You need to master them.
We're spending a lot of money on that.
Papa, Papa! Remember how you thrashed that man!
Didn't I tell you to zip it?
Yes. But even I want to learn how to fight!
Why do you want to learn to fight?
You still haven't learned to touch your elders' feet for blessings!
When was the last time you touched my feet?
-Come on, touch my feet! -Paa.
Touch my feet.
Bless you, may you always be happy.
Suchi, please!
Bye! Bye!
You're not doing this to get back at me, are you?
No. I am just
following the department's orders.
I know you won't have much time,
but call me at least once a day and tell me you're okay.
Okay, bye!
I'd have taken a taxi. Why did you have to come?
Don't dick around with me.
The cold war's between Suchi and you, not between us.
-Move it! -Move it!
Mom!
Is everything fine between you and Dad?
Yes. Why?
I just felt...
-What? -I don't know.
I am sad.
What is it, darling?
Don't worry. Dad will be back soon.
Okay?
I hope so.
Mom!
Mom, I don't feel like going to school.
So, don't go.
When you grow up, you can become a maid.
I'll tell our maid to train you.
I'll also give you an internship at home.
Very funny!
I screwed up again.
What?
You mean, once again?
-Sorry, I meant... -No.
I held a grudge for a bit too long this time.
Listen, man,
don't worry about Suchi.
She'll calm down.
I know you two for fifteen years.
Nothing will change.
One more thing.
Don't stroll around all alone in Srinagar.
Always carry your gun.
When in doubt,
shoot first.
Who's your CO there?
Guess.
Come on, tell me.
Saloni.
Oh, fuck!
-You think it's funny? -Shit!
Why do such things happen only to you?
This is fucking ridiculous! Saloni!
And that too in the middle of this mess!
As-salaam 'alaykum, General.
There's some good news.
Our mujahid will be
discharged from the hospital in two or three days.
I've asked the sleeper cell to be on standby for the operation.
Good.
We need to get Zulfiqar back on track again
as soon as possible,
without any waste of time.
Is our second fighter in place?
Yes, sir.
He's got his orders
and has left for Kashmir.
Remember,
this time, there should be no mistakes.
Sir!
Hello, sir!
Sorry, I just saw your message.
-Have you reached? -Just landed, sir.
I've sent you to Srinagar for a reason.
I'm not that stupid, sir.
I've been working with you for years now.
I was only awaiting orders.
We've got information from RAW
that a key asset of Mission Zulfiqar has reached Kashmir.
I want you to dig deeper into this.
Be careful, it's Kashmir,
it doesn't take long for things to blow out of proportion.
Thank you, sir. I'll keep that in mind.
Okay, sir. They have come to receive me.
Okay. Take care.
Thank you, sir.
How are things over here nowadays?
Can't you see?
It feels like a free bird has been caged.
These fuckers call Kashmir the crown of India.
But they treat us like shit.
If they had as much concern for the Kashmiri people
as they have for Kashmir, things would be different.
That is the tragedy.
But everything is going to change now.
How are things here nowadays?
We're calling the shots here.
Someone told me the number of tourists here has shot up.
I can see the tourists...
In uniform.
When do I meet Basharat?
-I don't know. -Then what do I do now?
Just lie low and wait.
They'll let you know later.
"If there is ever heaven on earth,
"it is here, it is here, it is here."
-What's wrong? -I want to see my brother.
Asif?
But you don't have access to that room.
I need to see him, Mary.
I need to see my brother.
How will you go there?
What are you doing?
Mary...
I have to see him.
Moosa...
I'll have a lot to answer. I'll lose my job.
Mary...
I won't put you in trouble.
Trust me.
I'll be right back.
"Did you squeal like a rat to the infidels?"
No, Asif bhai... I didn't.
"What are you doing here?"
Nothing personal, Asif bhai.
Potassium.
I injected it into your bloodstream.
Close your eyes.
You'll go in peace.
I don't want you to squeal like a rat to the infidels
about Zulfiqar.
Allah Hafiz, brother.
