You just got here!

It's this news, isn't it?

What did he say?

That I should report back at once

He must have said more!

What are you hiding?

I don't have anything

to tell you, Dad!?

I've to go

Due to commencement of Operation vijay

you are being made an Acting Captain

Army Intelligence has reported that

our neighbours... have betrayed our trust

They have crossed the Line

of Control and infiltrated...

regions from Batalik to

Drass with armed intruders

Our unit is responsible for peak 5179

I've called for a briefing

in the next 15 minutes

Come what may,

we must recapture peak 5179

At any cost!

This is the mountain known

as peak 5179 on the map

We cannot access it's northern side...

without crossing the LOC

And we have been given

precise orders...

that under no circumstances,

can we cross the LOC So!

That leaves us with three sides

The western side is a sheer cliff

850 to 900 feet high

The enemy has a natural defense here

That leaves two sides

This is the southern side, facing us

But there's open plain

from here to there

No cover at all

The enemy perched on the mountain...

can easily watch our

movements from his bunker upto 3 km

This means that we are left with

only one option the eastern side

That's right

We will send a small team

They must move undetected and explore

and chart possible routes

that will provide us...

with maximum cover

There!

Their bunkers must

be across that ridge line

That's the only access to this side

They would've definitely covered it

Hello, Ghaznavi 1

Hello, Ghaznavi 3, come in, over

Sir, I can see Indian soldiers

one and half kms away

A patrolling party, perhaps

No firing

Don't reveal your position

Understood, sir, over

Karan, get back!

Why were you in the open?

- Sorry, sir

I felt a presence on the mountain

I felt like I was being watched

Come on, get the camera, quick!

Come on... come on... hurry up

Hey, isn't that Romila Dutta?

You're right

Hello

- Hi!

How far is that shelling from here?

- About 3 kms away

The pakistanis on the mountain...

...are trying to cut off the highway

I see

- Don't worry, they won't succeed

Where are you going? - Kargil

Actually we are from Global news

You don't need an introduction!

Hi

Hello

Hi

The shelling you hear

is from the other side

Our Artillery will see where best

to retaliate and then fire back

In mountain warfare...

the side occupying the

heights holds the advantage

Therefore! Before any attack on

the feature's eastern side...

we need to know...

the exact position of

the enemy's bunkers

The strength of their fire power

An aggressive patrol will

be sent to accomplish this

What's the plan, sir?

Thank you sir

four teams! The first from this side

You will lead it Second team, Kaushal

- Yes sir

You will apply pressure onto this area

Third team, Satish and Capt. Ramanna

You will go till here

And Akbar, Karan & Sgt. Dharamvir Singh

You will position your team here

and open fire

This will not be an actual attack

but they should feel that it is real

When they return fire... we'll get to know

their positions and weapons

Yes sir

Engagement ring! - Congratulations

- Thank you.

Alright! Here we go...

Ready pradeep

- Yes sir

All teams open fire!

Sir, Oscar Tango 3 degrees,

distance 800 metres

they have a medium machine gun

Here! NW of team D!

Sir!

Hello Tiger!

This is team 2 here

Hello tiger, there's a bunker

on the Camel's Hump

Bunker on the Camel's Hump?

Okay vinodh!

Hello Tiger - Go ahead Koushal

- A bunker! On the landing!

Bunker on the landing, mark it!

Oscar Tango 23 degrees,

distance 650 metres

There's a bunker on the ridge

On the ridge! Return to base

All teams return to base...

Mission accomplished...

I repeat, Mission accomplished

They have a medium and light

machine gun in these bunkers

There are 4 bunkers up there

And they have an 81 mm

Mortar at the top of this feature

Sir...

- Yes, pritam Singh, go on

They have two 81 mm mortars

up there, not one

It takes at least 10 seconds

to reload this weapon...

but the second round comes

in well before that

He's right

Now that's experience

Hello

Sir, we pushed them back

- You fool!

They came to check out our bunkers

and weapons... and succeeded!

Stay prepared and alert

The real attack isn't too far now! Over!

Understood, sir! Over!

Yesterday, at one point

I thought my gun had jammed

and almost picked up a

stone to chuck at the bunker

Sir!

- Relax... relax

As per the CO's plan,

we must shift base today

The new base will be closer

to the eastern side

At Soopra village

Right, sir

Shoulder to shoulder,

stride for stride...

when we move forward,

the enemy quakes with fear

Shoulder to shoulder,

stride for stride...

when we move forward,

the enemy quakes with fear

We must keep moving now

with one single thought

in all our minds

We must keep moving now

with one single thought

in all our minds

Come what may! We will melt

stone with our intensity

Come what may! We will

overshadow mountains like clouds

Shoulder to shoulder,

stride for stride...

when we move forward,

the enemy quakes with fear

Lets enter the battlefield

ready to sacrifice our life

Never rest until we have

reached our destination

We have the courage to

laugh in the face of adversities

We have the strength to

twist the arm of death

We are a wall of steel

guarding our borders

We are alert and ready

for any enemy

Come what may! We will melt

stone with our intensity

Come what may! We will

overshadow mountains like clouds

Shoulder to shoulder,

stride for stride...

when we move forward,

the enemy quakes with fear

Keep the flame of fervor

alight in your heart

And you shall sing

the song of victory

Keep the flame of fervor

alight in your heart

And you shall sing

the song of victory

The portrait of victory

we're out to paint

will be coloured by our blood

We all know, in our hearts now...

It's either do or die!

Even if fire and lightning

befall our path

You will not be alone,

my brothers in arms

Whatever be the hardship

whatever be the strife...

Your comrades are with

you now and forever

Come what may! We will melt

stone with our intensity

Come what may! We will

overshadow mountains like clouds

Shoulder to shoulder,

stride for stride...

when we move forward,

the enemy quakes with fear

I often think about the one I love

Her memory torments my heart

I often wonder,

that letters from home...

seem to be written on

paper, moist with tears

Memories are like shadows,

always with us

Dreams are like friends,

travelling with us

No dream will be shattered

No promise will be broken

May the one you truly love

be yours when this is done

Come what may! We will melt

stone with our intensity

Come what may! We will

overshadow mountains like clouds

Shoulder to shoulder,

stride for stride...

when we move forward,

the enemy quakes with fear

The valleys are echoing

the song of our caravan
