The government is negotiating

with the terrorists.

You know, when she returned

from her hijack training...

...I made it very clear.

Forget your training and all that...

if you're in danger,

just run for your life.

But she never listens to me.

Rama, I hope Laado...

But...she didn't give

up and neither did I.

So...God finally had

to answer our prayers.

Yeah..

- So...who can snatch her from us now?

Don't worry.

Absolutely...

- 100 percent...

Okay.

- She'll come back...
