In the 1947-48 Jammu and

Kashmir war against Pakistan..

..Captain Jadoonath Singh

of the First Battalion..

..was awarded a posthumous Param

Vir Chakra (gallantry medal)..

..when he attacked the Pakistanis

with grenades held in his bare..

..hands not once, not

twice, but three times.

He took a bullet in his head

and went down fighting for India.

The Rajputs won another Maha

Vir Chakra (gallantry medal).

Major Baljit Singh

Randhawa gave up his Iife..

..on 1 7th May in the act of driving

the Pakistanis from Black Rock.

Captain Ranveer Singh and..

..Sepoy Buddh Singh were awarded

the Vir Chakra (gallantry medal)..

..for losing their Iives

in winning an outpost..

..which the Indian

Government promptly returned..

..to Pakistan in an act of goodwill.

In Kashmir, to this day, every man..

..in the Rajputana Rifles

puts duty before self.

Hawaldar Ranveer Singh didn't

budge an inch from his post..

..despite an entire section

of men being wiped out.

Even today, nothing means more to them..

..than the honour of their regiment..

The fifth generation

of Rajput soldiers..

..keep the flame alight to this day..

..asking their Rajput brothers

"Who will you die for?"

He says, "For my battalion".

And who does the battalion belong to?

The Rajputana..

And who does Rajputana belong to?

India..

And what does India do for you?

Ever since the dawn

of democracy, Rajputs..

..have been repeatedly betrayed.

Sadar Vallabh Bhai Patel

had appealed to us..

Come here.

- "One India.."

Give up your states and become one..

..nation. - Wear this. - He

urged us, we gave them up.

He asked us for our wealth..

We emptied our treasuries..

For one India..

But where, may I ask, is that one India?

Our democracy has reached a stage..

..where no one wants to vote anymore.

Everyone's nation is the

four walls of their homes.

No government can

accumulate a majority vote..

We had a heritage a thousand years old..

..and at the time they

snatched it from us..

..it was better than what they have now.

In the name of democracy, all

they do is take power away from us.

And do those very things they

have always accused us of..

The Patiala report only

mentioned the mistakes and..

..indiscretions we

committed. Nothing else.

There isn't a single act they have

committed that can be called clean.

To this day people call

us royalty. Royalty!

They respect us. Why?

Because they know we have

sacrificed for our people.

The King of Jodhpur

once cocked his gun..

..at Vallabh Bhai Patel's

secretary and said..

"Don't betray the people of Jodhpur."

But they betrayed everybody.

In the 1967 Parliament elections..

..when our crown prince

stood as a candidate..

..then what happened?

The Congress was wiped

out in Rajasthan..

The people voted 24 princes

into power across the nation..

What did the government do then?

They called an All India

Congress Committee Conference.

Clamped down on all royal centres..

..and took away all our privileges.

They bought us to our knees.

We had to accept defeat.

We lost because even

after a thousand years..

..we were still wrangIing

amongst ourselves.

Enough!

If we have to rebuild our

Rajputana, we will have to unite.

If we seek to save our Rajputana

from them, we will have to unite..

A patriot must always

be ready to defend..

..his country against its government.

It's time to wage a war!

For our independence, for our land.

And for that, we need

resources and army.

And most importantly, you

will have to shed your blood.

If you are not ready to

shed blood, stop dreaming!

You will gain nothing.

We will not be able to regain our land..

..respect, the glory we once had..

So, if you are ready to become one..

If you are ready to shed your blood..

Let's say it together..

Hail the land of the brave!

Hail the land of the brave!

- Hail the land of the brave.

Hail Rajputana!

- Hail Rajputana!

Hail Rajputana!

- Hail Rajputana!

Hail the land of the brave!

- Hail the land of the brave.

My grandfather, Noor Mohammed..

..worked for the king here..

He fell in love with the princess..

..the idiot had him buried

alive in these salt pans.

Even had his bones melted.

We need to go right..

..there. That used to

be a British booze joint.

The British called it a 'Bar'.

They fled but they

left behind their 'Bar'.

Come.

Where the hell are you?

The customers have come.

Listen.

The train drops you at your doorstep..

This is our local flute

player. He Iives here.

Why? No one knows.

You can Iive here too.

I've just seen him play these..

..never sells anything.

What is his work, why, when, how,

who.. every question, one reply.

Just Iike that.

This is 69. 70 minus 1 .

Don't go right, because

there's no right.

Does anyone stay here?

- Yes, a student of Desharaj college..

Great chap!

A Rajput?

The real thing..

What's his name?

Rananjay Singh.

- Do you drink?

Yes.

- Smoke?

Yes, and I wander around aimlessly.

I get intimate with every woman I see.

If any idiot get tough

with me, I give it to him.

I have a gun. The pellets

are quite dangerous.

He is not a good fellow,

stay away from him.

I've spoken to the warden.

Just keep checking the hostel Iist.

I've paid six month's rent.

The rest of the money is with Bhanwar.

Take only as much as you need.

Okay? And buy a bicycle..

"Chanting Lord Hanuman's name.."

"..helps one overcome all obstacles."

"Hail Lord Hanuman."

"Bestow me with your grace."

You look old. What's your age?

How many times have you failed?

Not once. I'm a post graduate.

So, Uncle, have you come to teach here..

I've come to study law.

Law..

All those who can't do anything

else come here to study law.

Want some?

No!

Want this?

Stop soiling your pants.

You!

Are you his brother's rat?

So, why do you look so worried?

You know what I'll do if you call him?

What?

Light this, I'll tell you.

You see that fan here..

Yes.

How many blades does it have?

Three.

If I hang you there instead

how many would there be?

Two arms, two legs.. how many?

Four.

And what about your head, you fool?

Go sleep.

You come with me.

Where?

Laaka..

A bite.

The taste of forbidden fruit

seems delicious on my tongue.

My heart goes berserk..

The taste of forbidden fruit

seems delicious my tongue.

My heart goes berserk..

One bite, I tremble and

shiver, as if I were stung.

My heart goes berserk..

One bite, I tremble and

shiver, as if I were stung.

My heart goes berserk..

The taste of forbidden fruit

seems delicious on my tongue.

My heart goes berserk..

Bana, Ransa is here.

I fear being shamed in this world..

"I fear being shamed in this world.."

I fear the society in this world.

Will someone blow cold

on this body in heat?

Will someone throw some

water on the fire in my heart?

He left me in sweet pain,

left me begging for more..

My heart goes berserk..

The taste of forbidden fruit

seems delicious on my tongue..

My heart goes berserk..
