Bring him out.

Come priest sir, come.

Don't try to act too smart.

Brother, i live in

the nearby village.

I am the priest in the mosque there.

Come near close to me,

my eyesight is weak.

I cannot see you clearly.

I want to see you...

...you are just a child.

Son, i want to tell you something.

The muslims nearby have hid

themselves inside their houses.

And any mistake from you,

can be deadly for them.

I know that they will not

break down the door now.

They will at least wait for the

higher officials to arrive.

But son, they will surely

break down the doors...

...son, please shoot yourself as soon

as they break down the doors.

Don't be caught alive son.

Son, for allah's sake.

Don't harm anyone.

You know what will be the result.

They want you to surrender.

But do you know what will

happen when you surrender.

The crowd that is standing

outside here.

They will kill you.

They are all thirsty for your blood.

I don't know son that who are you...

...where have you come from

and what do you want.

But i know that you

will not survive.

People from all over the country

are gathering here.

A very big conspiracy

is being hatched.

Son, when these people...

...when these people cannot

fight hunger and poverty.

Then they fight us.

So that they forget their

other grave problems.

This crowd will forget all their

problems watching you die.

Even though just for a moment.

But they will feel happy

seeing you die.

Even if for a few moments.

Son, allah will help you son.

How many men are there?

Take him.

Come priest sir.

There is no need to worry sir.

No, minister sir is

just too excited.

Yes.

There is only one terrorist inside...

...and i think that he

is not even armed.

No, no... There is no need

for more force sir.

I will inform you if i will need it.

Yes sir, yes.

Okay sir, thank you.

Chaubey.

- Yes sir.

Move, move, move.

Hello.

Ms. Anita, come.

But my daughter, for her happiness...

...tiwari, what are you doing?

Listen, listen to me.

Please visit once.

Thank you doctor sir.

Listen to me.

Madam has come, talk to her properly.

Madam this is tiwari,

and this is anita-ji.

Who is this man? What is his name?

Which organization does he belong

to? What are his demands?

Have you talked to him?

Look madam, this is a

very delicate matter...

...i won't be able to tell

you much about it.

But all this operation is under you.

What arrangements have you done?

You can see the arrangements.

The police are situated everywhere.

And we are always in contact

with the centre.

And everything is under control.

And there is no need to panic at all.

So, is this an official

government statement?

Madam i have told you that i cannot...

...tell you anything more

than that. That's all.

The priest had first met the

terrorist. Isn't that your work?

I mean the police should

have contacted him first.

Did you send the priest

because he is muslim?

Switch off the camera.

Madam, now you will teach

the police their duty.

This is the problem of

you channel people.

You always spice up the matter.

But you never tell

the fact to anyone.

If there is no problem,

then you will...

...make the hindus and

the muslims fight.

If you dare switch on the

camera then i will...

...it does not matter if you have come

in the beginning or the end.

What matters is what

you are telling.

Keep the camera off.

Chaubey.

- Yes sir.

Switch on the camera.

As you can see the s. P is here...

...yes sir.

If there is a call from home then...

...tell them that i will call back.

Okay, fine sir.

Where are you going sir?

We are relaying from dholpur

exclusively on channel 5 news.

Shoot there.

Shoot only when he does.

- Okay sir.

Follow him, follow him.

Stand here.

Slight.

Close, close closer.

Yeah, i'm trying to.

Getting the right frame?

- Yeah. - Zoom it on him.

I am the s. P here tiwari.

Don't be afraid i will not shoot you.

Look... iook both my hands are empty.

What is your name?

What difference does my name make?

Being a muslim is enough for you all.

Tell me your name.

- Anwar.

What do you want?

Nothing.

Who else is there with you?

No one.

Then why are you hiding here?

I am not hiding here, i am just...

...where have you come from?

- Lucknow.

Where do you want to go?

- I don't know.

Where do you live in lucknow?

What difference does that make?

That sketchbook is yours.

Sketchbook.

You have made those designs.

- Yes.

Why?

Which weapons do you have?

Where have you hidden the rdx?

Which other temples do you

plan to destroy tell me.

I don't know anything.

And if you will try to

break down the door...

...then i will shoot myself.

I will surely shoot myself.

And like your minister sir said.

I will make your temple

impure with my blood.

What do you get from all this?

And what do you think?

How long can you hide here?

Surrender yourself, okay.

This meera, krishna, mehru

are they your code words.

Who is the leader of

your organization?

Master pasha.

Who is meera? Who is krishna? Mehru.

Who are all of them master pasha?

Master pasha, who are all of them?

Love.

True love.

Love some one anwar, then you

will know the truth of life.

Love, that has truth,

sacrifice and trust.

Like... Meera's love for krishna.

And krishna's love for meera.

Meera immersed herself

in krishna's love.

And krishna in meera's love.

Wonderful.

When two people unite in love.

Or shall we say, that they both

cross all the boundaries.

That is love.

Rest all are love stories anwar.

Heer ranjha, romeo and juliet.

Only love stories.

Love, that's all.

This life is so colorless

without love anwar.

Where did you get lost?
