1971: Beyond Borders Page #5

Leave immediately.

This is all we can do

for that father, Sir.

We are going to lose this war.

It's not the RAW & Intelligence Officers

who're fighting at the borders.

It's us!

The army!

We will decide, whether

we have won or lost!

Just because Pak Colonel Raja Sheriff

captured two of our pickets,

we have not lost it, Sir.

Just like your infantry

is fighting on the field,

we are also fighting, Mister!

Not with guns!

With our brains!

No one can win a war without the

support of the Intelligence team.

At the Intelligence level,

and in the one-on-one war.

America's 7th naval fleet is on

its way with India as its target.

To fight us directly in

this war & defeat us.

Our prestige warship

Vikranfs capacity,

is only 20,000 tonnes.

And as per Russian

Intelligence report,

the British war ship 'Eagle'

is also advancing

towards us.

And, a Chinese military array

which targeting Bay of Bengal,

and all facilities are provided for Pak

fighter jets at the Sri Lankan air base.

When fighter jets of the enemies are

attacking us brutally from all directions,

you, who are already losing

even to Raja Sheriff;

what are you going to

do, Mr.Janardanan?

They will burn India to ashes!

Once we're sure that our

country is going to lose,

Gentlemen, there's

only option!

Surrender!

Drop your weapons & surrender.

That's the strategy of a war.

That's the strategy!

What prerogative does he

have, to call off the war?

With broken legs and arms, with

bodies torn apart by bullets;

our soldiers are waiting

outside, enraged.

Those who are waiting to

go back to the war field.

Whichever American fleet comes,

We won't surrender & drop our

weapons as long as we are alive!

Do you have any idea,

Major Sahadevan?

You have no clue about the

American nuclear might!

It's bullshit, Sir!

Weren't your praising the enormous

capacity of 7th fleet, cruise missiles?

And what happened?

They were beaten badly by

the miniscule Vietnam army.

Communist martyrs

burned 'chem to ashes

by running right into the middle of

7th naval fleet with hand-grenades.

For someone whose blood boils

with inextinguishable patriotism,

America & atom bombs are

inconsequential, Sir.

A country which was won back by many

brave patriots who sacrificed their lives!

Its freedom!

We will protect it, Sir.

While standing guard for

our nation's security,

a soldier's weapon is not a gun;

but his infallible valour!

Sir, have you seen a tiger'?

The tiger of Ranthambore!

There he goes!

Look!

He can do anything,

for his motherland.

You bloody...

I won't leave anyone!

MBRHDRGs

I will not spare anyone!

I will kill them all!

Bloody Indians!

I will try.

Sir,

I've been noticing for

the past few days.

When I ask you to fix a drink,

you'll bring a lame tea

or you'll say that

there's no stock!

There's no more

booze in the army?

Let alone booze, we're not

even getting enough ration!

Didn't you go on for all these days

like this since the war started?

Go on for today as well.

I have a doubt!

Am I the officer here or you?

When I ask you to fix a

drink, there should be booze!

Believe me when I

say that its over!

I let you tag along with

me for 15 years, for this? Go & get it!

Fr! Brings tea for me!

I will give you, Sir.

Let the war get over.

Since you got a leave, you

went home as well?

Then?

With the address you gave me,

I went straight to a hospital

in Sudarshan's village.

Is there someone called

Krishna Pillai here?

Amina, your patienfs

relative has come!

So you are that great man!

Are you coming so late to see your

father who's on the death-bed?

He is in a critical stage.

Come with me!

Good that you decided

to come at least now!

Well..

As soon as you soldiers cross the Valayar

check post, you stop speaking Malayalam!

And you keep saying that you're

doing this for the country!

He had spoken a lot to me

when he was admitted here.

So I know everything.

Just because you didn't

come to take care of him,

I've been doing extra

duty for the past 3 days!

A son who has no

time for his father!

Well, Sister"

Tamil again?

I'm not going to get any extra money

because I'm doing over-time duty.

So tonight, you can

stay with him!

Come here.

Come!

Don't make any noise

when you go there.

He hasn't spoken a word

since yesterday.

Dad!

(fbncfly)

Dad!

Your son is here!

Come here.

Dad!

Hand!

Hold his hand!

III-

Oh God!

You can leave his hand.

He has been dead for hours now.

I'll inform the doctor & clear

the formalities quickly.

So that you can take

the body home quickly.

Does he have any relatives?

What?

You are his son. You would be

knowing that better than me!

Sister, I am not his son;

and he isn't my father!

Actually, his son

got killed in the war.

I came here to inform that.

Oh God!

So, for the whole night yesterday,

were you standing in this room?

You could have told

me when you came itself.

How, Sister?

Before I could tell you, you thought I was

his son and brought me in front of him.

Sorry Sir.

Right from the time you came,

I was a little rude to you.

Just like an ordinary

professional nurse.

No, Sir.

You have to go back, right?

No. You are not late.

To give him the belief that his own son

was beside him while he was dying,

you reached there on time.

Please stop torturing the

prisoners, at least from today.

Do you have any idea,

whom you're talking to?

Very clearly, Sir.

That's why I am sad.

You're the graduate of the

same academy I graduated from.

There's something called the

'Geneva Convention', Sir.

They are our prisoners,

and our guests.

It's one thing to kill

someone on the war field,

and torture is something else!

You are trying to teach me?

I'm not teaching you, Sir.

I'm telling you.

I'm reminding you!

Your actions are a disgrace

to the entire Pakistan Army.

Don't give me a chance to

remind you again, Sir.

Good bye.

Stop, Rah'-!

Stop!

MBRHDRGs

You?

He is the one who

killed our people!

I will kill him today!

Don't spare him!

Leave him!

He will die!

Don't leave him alone!

Hit him as well!

What is this?

- He killed one amongst us, Sir.

And what are you doing now?

His soul won't forgive us

if we don't kill this guy.

If you're killing someone, that

should be on the war front.

This is not a war field.

They are the prisoners

of war now.

Our guests.

Athithi Devo Bhava!

(Guest is equal to God)

That's Indian culture.

Sir, the way forward

is full of minefields.

We can advance only if the

armoured tank clears it.

Kunjikkannan!

- The stock is over, Sir.

Not the booze.

Get me the wireless.

Where were you roaming around?

No, Sir. I was looking for you there.

Is this a college ground?

And are you looking for a girl here?

Everyone follow them!

So did you get her finally?

I kept going behind her.

But nothing happened.

Sir is here.

Feels like I'm sitting

on an elephant!

Actually, the elephant army

of the wars in the past
