Synopsis: Choices - to choose between right or wrong is simple, but what defines one's life is the decision between the greater of two goods or the lesser of two evils. This is the advice that Zooni Ali Beg (Kajol) receives from her father just as she is about to venture out into the world of her own for the very first time. Little does she know that these very words will shape her life. Zooni, a blind Kashmiri girl, meets Rehan Qadri (Aamir Khan), a local Delhi tour guide and an incorrigible flirt. Her friends warn her against this good-for-nothing roadside Romeo, but she chooses to ignore them. It is now her time to discover life and love. Is this really the right choice? Rehan is fascinated by Zooni and wants her to see life as it should be seen, in its many colours. He promises her that the time spent with him will be the most precious in all her life. Zooni sees Delhi, life and love like she never has before, because of Rehan. What Zooni doesn't know is that Rehan has another side of his li

.. was foiled by Tyagi.

She got lucky, once.

And now she thinks she's a

big shot intelligence officer.

I can't do anything now.

The Defence Minister himself

has asked her to be on this case.

Sir, it's nothing less

than the Armageddon.

The press shouldn't

even get a whiff of this.

This IKF has made our life hell.

First the President Palace

bombing then Karachi Oil refinery..

.. and last year it was

the plane hijacking.

And now we hear

they've stolen parts..

.. from us Pakistan and Russia..

.. and are ready with

a nuclear missile!

Sir, This is their way of

forcing India out of Kashmir.

When Kashmir's ruler, Hari Singh,

decided to join India in 1947..

.. then why this talk

of independence now?

But the Kashmiri's had

also been promised a vote..

.. a referendum to decide

whether they wanted to stay..

.. a part of India, join Pakistan

or then be independent.

All these years later they are

still to get that referendum.

What referendum

are you talking about?

When half of Kashmir is occupied

by Pakistan, how is it possible?

A referendum needs to

include all of Kashmir..

.. why should it include only half?

Mr. Rawat.

This is not an India-Pakistan

issue any more.

IKF wants both India and

Pakistan to leave Kashmir.

They want a separate country.

An independent Kashmir.

Please, I know the

history of India and Pakistan.

Tell me about this bomb.

How powerful is this bomb,

Mrs. Tyagi, and what are the dangers?

In the last few years over 15,000

people have been killed in Mumbai,

Oklahoma City, New York, Bali,

Madrid and London.

And losses have run into millions.

But if they use this bomb

An entire city can be destroyed.

That city can also be

our capital, New Delhi.

We must stop this bomb.

Whateer it takes.

But Sir, this bomb

is useless for them.

What do you mean?

The missile needs a special,

Indian made trigger.

If they don't hae that,

they can't use the bomb

Only until they get the trigger.

Only until then.

Sir, there's nothing to

worry about. Outside Delhi,

We have 6 triggers at various

military bases around the country.

In Rajasthan, Kutch, Darjeeling,

Amritsar, Leh and Kashmir.

They are safe there.

I want all the

triggers brought to Delhi.

In the next 12 hours

they will all be here, Sir.

Get me the Defence

Minister of Pakistan,

.. I want to share this

information with him. - Yes, sir.

We can be sure. Just as we are

taking steps to secure the triggers,

IKF's mastermind will be

taking steps to steal them.

Pass. Pass me.

Pass here, come on.

Captain Ranjeev.

Hit! Captain Ranjeev!

Major Suraj!

Brigadier for you, sir!

- Coming!

Yes, sir. I understand, sir.

My unit has a 100%

success rate on missions, Sir.

And I will bring this

trigger to you myself.

Be alert. IKF will be

after you at every step.

If the weather holds up, the trigger

will be with you in 3 hours, Sir.

Glory to India! - Over and out, sir.

Glory to India!

Captain Ranjeev.

This is the day

every soldier lives for.

The last time you

saved me from the IKF.

Today we both must save

the country from the IKF.

This soldier is ready to take

lives or to give his own life.

Anything for his motherland, Sir.

Get the boys ready.

- Yes, sir.

Good news.

The trigger will be with us soon.

God keep Rehan!

God is great!

Captain Ranjeev.

Thank you.

Hi, baby.

Mummy is fine. How are you?

Mummy will save the country

I know you wanted custard.

But Grandma has made rice pudding

with so much love, so please eat it.

What have you brought?

Rice pudding or custard?

We've checked the list of

officers coming from Kashmir.

Everything is okay.

How can it not be ok?

I have hand-picked these officers.

They are the army's

very best, elite forces.

Ok, so that's where he is.

- Who?

An ace officer from the Jat

Regiment Sir, Captain Ranjeev.

His wife reported he hadn't

called her for a couple of months.

She wanted to know if he

was on some secret mission.

That's wies for you.

Am sure she was after him

with some pudding or such.

Poor man must have

needed a break from..

.. all that so he

didn't call, understandable.

He didn't call his

wife for two months?

Just find out, was his last

mission to do with the IKF?

Right, maam.

Yes Ma'am. Major Suraj's

regiment was surrounded by the IKF.

At the last moment Captain Ranjeev's

regiment got there and saved them.

Everyone from Captain

Ranjeev's regiment was killed.

Only he survived.

Oh my God.

That's him! We have to stop him!

Sounds like the base

is trying to contact us.

The signal is too weak.

Alpha 1 to Eagle. Do you read me?

It's amazing isn't it? Such a small

thing can take so many lives.

Our lives too, in it's defence

- So?

I'm not afraid of dying Sir,

But it's better to kill for

your country than be killed

You want to kill people? Make

them eat your wife's cooking!

Santosh!

Ajay!

Eijaz!

Ranjeev!

You are dying the

death of a brave soldier.

He who dies on the

battlefield goes to heaven.

God keep you.

Grandfather. I am not empty handed.

Praise be to God! You don't have

just a trigger there with you.

It is our decades long dream.

We hae sacrificed so much for.

You must get that

trigger to us now at any cost.

Kill, or be killed.

Yes, grandfather.

I will meet you in 3 hours

At Shikara 1 pick up point.

Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

I was right. That was no accident.

He was in the helicopter.

Jam all the phone lines

in the area,..

.. mobiles, satellite, internet,

everything.

I want a communications blackout.

We can't jam radio signals, we have

military operations in that area

If you can't jam them, you can

at least monitor them, can't you?

Search the entire area.

Come on, boys. Lets get going!

- Yes, sir.

How far is the road unit?

No! He's still alive.

I don't care how

many bodies you saw.

I know Rehan will

reach the pick up point.

I have not given him permission

to die. He cannot die.

Rehan!

Quickly, call Grandpa. Go. Fast.

Papa!

- Grandpa!

Hand me the scissors, please.

Who is this, mom?

Rehan, I don't know. Go,

please sit over there.

Is he also dead like Grandma?

Quiet! Little monkey

His pulse is quite weak.

Try the phone. Is it working now?

No papa. It's still dead.

We've done the best we could.

I'm no doctor.

What can we do?

You can't go and get a

doctor in this weather.

Not for 50 kilometers

in this storm. No way.

Mom! Please leave Rehan.

Rehan!

- Mummy.

Nothing darling. Nothing

Now it's up to you young man.

We can only pray you

hae some reason to live.

It can be two days?

It can be two weeks?

How can you not know

when the storm will pass?

I want an update every hour,

you hear?

Can't you do anything right?

Till I don't see a body

I can't believe he's dead.

Don't do that Rehan.

What are you up to?

I can't hear his heartbeat.

There is no heartbeat.

Rehan wants to hear his heartbeat,

like he hears Grandpa's.

The heart is not here, it's there.

Forgive me Zooni. I have no choice.
