Kya Dilli Kya Lahore Page #5

Synopsis: In 1948, a cross-fire erupts at an isolated stretch of Indo-Pak border, leaving only two soldiers alive. One is an Indian soldier of Pakistani origin while the other happens to be a Pakistani soldier of Indian origin. An ironic story of pride and survival begins when - in an attempt to evade danger, they bump into each other. And amidst continuous exchange of bullets, altercations and murkier situations, it evolves into a journey of human connection with an unforeseeable end.

If everything is

needed by your captain...

...then have you come here

looking for a groom for your mom?

Yes. Yes.

A captain's order

is a captain's order.

Has to be carried out.

Right?

When I become an officer.

I am one.

Then you will certainly

follow my order.

Right, Samarth.

You will have to follow orders.

What are you staring at?

Don't stare.

I would've shot you two.

It's only because I received orders...

...to keep you two alive.

That's why I spare your life.

I am sparing your life.

Sir, I will certainly

die under this hot sun.

You think you're that important.

My back's stiffened, sir.

Straighten up. Back has stiffened!

I am no less than a dog, sir.

Early in the morning father said

to me that he has to go somewhere.

And he did too.

But we could never

find out where he went.

So did mother...

...and my sister.

But I couldn't find out...

...where they all went.

What nonsense is this?

If you knew, Burfi...

...then all this

wouldn't have happened.

Someone asked for it, and we obliged.

We became dogs. Dogs.

From where are we?

We don't even know that.

Its wrong.

Anyway.

Forget all this.

Look, Burfi.

How will you understand?

You need a heart

to understand all this.

And you don't have one.

Shut up, you traitor.

You shouldn't talk about a heart.

You shouldn't be hearing it either.

Not at all.

Sir. Sir.

What is it?

Sir, you're very intelligent.

I don't want any file.

Let me go.

Who's giving you the file?

Not me, my captain.

Whether it's you or the captain.

You both are Pakistanis.

No, sir. I've lived

in Old Delhi for 0 years.

I belong here.

- I see.

- Yes.

- Come here.

- Yes.

Where from Old Delhi?

Matiya Mahal.

Do you know Majid?

- The Khamidi bread maker.

- Noor Ilaiyi's son.

Noor Ilaiyi's son.

Rascal.

You stayed here for 30 years.

In India.

And then you turned

your faith towards them.

Joined their army.

And now you're killing us.

You're a dog as well, just like him.

What are you doing?

What's in your bag?

Nothing.

What's in your bag?

Put down your bag.

What is it?

What else did you give him?

What? What is it in his bag?

What is this?

It belongs to my child, sir.

I thought it belongs to your mother.

You were saying you don't have water,

bucket, this, that.

Burfi.

Look, I don't want any file.

Let me go home.

Let me go home.

No. Don't let him go.

Hold him for 10-15 minutes.

The reinforcement's on the way.

They will deal with him.

I can't see a thing.

Get the medikit. It's in the bag.

I will die.

Sit down. Have courage.

- Have courage.

- Do what you want to quickly.

Don't lose hope. Don't lose hope.

- Don't tell my father.

- Just a minute.

- Your father has sent a letter.

- Don't tell my father.

Really. Your father has sent a letter.

Just a minute.

- Wait. Wait.

- Everyone will call my son a traitor.

Son of traitor.

- Just a minute.

- Everyone will call my son a traitor

Listen. Listen.

Father says '"Bless you.

May God bless you with happiness. "

"We're doing okay,

we manage to sell 20-25 bags a day. "

"'The paperwork has been completed. "

"'Room no 1056 in Old Delhi,

Chandni Chowk... "

'"... near the Town Hall,

we got back our home. "

"'We got back our home. "

"'You... you come back home soon. "

"'Son, now leave the army... "

"'... and spend the rest

of your life with us. "'

"'God bless you with happiness. "'

"'We should respect the Lord as well. "'

"'We've received news from Lahore... "'

"'... Uncle Afzal passed away. '"

'You know Afzal Qureshi?'

'At least say uncle Afzal. '

'His son Rizwan and

I were childhood friends. '

'"Tomorrow if you face Rizwan,

you won't be able to shoot him. "

"'This is not our job to do. "

"'We've kin on that side, and this. '"

Sister-in-law has written...

"'... I hope you're keeping good health. "

"'Everything is fine here. '"

"'Mother's not been keeping well. "

"'We took her to the physician. '"

"'Billa is mischievous all the time. "

"'He has also learnt to abuse. "'

"'Come and slap him. "

"'Come and celebrate 'Diwali' with us. "'

"'Billa's birthday's arriving as well.

Bring something for him. "'

"'Don't go back again. "

"My mind keeps racing,

and the heart's always restless. "

"'Lajwanti. "

'I felt like this letter has been

sent from my home. '

Water.

Burfi, go get water.

Or, he'll die.

Look after him.

What is the name of your child?

Riyaz?

How old is he?

He'll turn four this year.

And your son?

11 years.

He studies...

...in the fifth standard.

You didn't tell me your name?

Rehmat Ali.

Go back to your home.

Don't come back here.

- You go home too.

- Yes.

If... I survive...

Brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Samarth.

He's dead.

Get me water.

There's no water, sir.

You've been here all night.

And what did you do?

You couldn't find a file.

There it is, sir. The file.

All these files are a waste.

Where is the file with the tunnel map?

- Where's that file of the tunnel?

- It must be in there, sir.

Hey, come here!

Sir, can I make a request.

Pakistan doubts India.

There's no tunnel.

Nor any file, maybe.

According to me.

- What nonsense is this?

- No.

All my soldiers are dead.

And you say there's no file.

Sir, the officers can make a mistake.

- What do you mean?

- I mean the information can be wrong.

I mean such an important

file in this small check-post, how?

I mean...

These officers...

These scoundrels

have made our life hell.

Yes, yes.

Exactly, sir.

They didn't even

let me celebrate 'Eid'.

It's all politics, sir.

Selfish scoundrels.

They sit comfortably

at home while we die out here.

Father wasn't well when I was leaving.

- Wonder...

- It'll be fine, sir.

Everything will be fine.

Yes.

Both the nations were

talking about peace.

I thought we'll have

a few days of peace.

Some holidays.

Yes.

But this border.

There would've been a file,

if there wasn't a border.

I put myself in line

of fire for nothing.

Why isn't there water here?

Rehmat...

Sir, he's alive.

Rehmat.

Brother.

Brother.

Traitor...

Siding with the enemy?

You turned out to be their supporter.

Traitor.

Finally you turned out

to be on their side.

Traitor...

officers can make mistakes...?

You'll betray my country?

Where is the file?

Where is the file?

Answer me.

I'm asking you something!

You won't tell like this...

Speak.

"'You're not what you seem to be. "'

"'You don't look, like what you are. "

'"You say, it's all a lie.

You're not what you seem to be. '"

"'You hurt us. "'

"'And also heal them. "'

"'Ask me, not yourself. '"

"'You do what you aren't supposed to. "

"'You're a liar. "'

"'You're a liar. "'

Who shot him?

"'Stories are long. "

"'Talks are done with bullets. "'

"'Words hurt. "'

"'Stories are long. "

"'Talks are done with bullets. "'

"'Words hurt. "'

"'The stories are weird. '"

"'The blood is mixed in the mud. "

"'The saints lose their lives. "

"'Crazy men roam in the borders. "
