dress on her birthday.

Okay?

She will definitely come back.

Don't you worry.

What did papa say?

- Wait.

Where are you going?

- They have no news yet.

Actually... I...

I just need to go to the market.

Why do you need to

go to the market now, mom?

I have to buy that

yellow dress for Laado.

She wants to wear that.

- I am coming too.

Aneesh, stay close to the phone.

If papa calls tell him

we'll be back in half an hour.

- Let's kill him, so that

they send us the pilots sooner.

We have to keep the passengers alive.

It's been more than 8 hours.

The negotiator is stalling us.

Let's kill this Englishman.

Be patient.

No time for patience...we must

open the door right now...

...and kill this Englishman.

- Brother! Stop!

I say kill the Englishman.

Look he's back.

Are you hearing me?

Because we had sealed the airport

it's taking time for the pilots to reach.

Keep your mouth shut!

Where are the pilots?

Pilot!

- How much time?

There's a radio engineer

present on the plane.

Radio!

Now you can communicate with

us through him on the radio.

Name?

- His name is Imran Ali!

Imran...

Imran Ali.

Now you can communicate with

us through him on the radio.

You keep an eye on the Englishman!

Sir please...

Sit! Sit!

Shut up!

Sit. Sit.

Iam owing-

Come. Go on.

Khalil, control the passengers!

Come on.

Windows...shut them.

Let me talk to them.

Yes, speak.

Fast... time!

The French crew pilots

will be here soon.

How much longer?

They're asking how

much longer will it take.

Like I said,

Imran, they will be here soon.

I have only one request.

Please let the women and children go.

No women...no children!

Pilot! Pilot!

The pilots are on their way,

please be patient.

Tell him! Pilot! Pilot! Pilot!

At least give me enough time...

...to get information from Imran.

Please hurry up.

Five minutes.

Five minutes.

- Okay, brother.

I'll let you know in a while.

- Be patient.

Why you not tell? Imran Ali?

Huh!

Why?

Come here. Come.

Hero, huh!

Sing.

Last song... sing.

Sing for them.

Sing.

Sing loud!

Sing the song.

I don't want to sing.

You don't want to sing?

Okay, don't sing.

- Okay, okay, I'll sing.

Sing!

Sing then!

"When will you come,

Oh the woman of my dreams!"

"It's a fine day, when will you come?"

Louder...

- "Come, Oh dean."

Loud, loud...

"Oh the woman of my dreams!"

For everyone.

"When will you come.."

"It's a fine day,

when will you come?"

"Come, Oh dean."

Sing louder, or I'll shoot this one.

I want my mom.

"When will you come,

Oh the woman of my dreams!"

"It's a fine day.."

Go sit. Hero.

Go!

Go, g0, 9-

Laado!

"Teach me to walk again,

lift me in your arms, mom!"

"Wipe my face with your shawl,

wherever you spot some dirt."

"When life stares down at me."

"I remember your words.."

"You're the one who scolded me

for my mistakes!"

"Why isn't the whole world like you,

mom?"

"I want to complain about everybody,

they trouble me, mom."

"Give me shelter, call me to you,

my heart is with you."

Laado!

He needs to use the washroom urgently.

Your p|ane...country...

Hey! What are you saying?

- Stand up!

Hey!

Go back.

He needs to use the washroom.

- Go back.

He's just a kid, let him go.

- Go back!

He needs to go to the bathroom.

- Go back.

Let them go.

I'll keep a watch.

What do you mean let them go?

- He's just a kid...

- Is he your kid?

Brother, he's just a small kid.

That's the least we can do.

Please control your anger.

Control my anger?

Are you trying to teach me?

Yes.

Yes? You are trying to teach me?

Khalil! What are you doing?

- What's going on here?

What's going on here? Why?

- Why?

- He...

If we fight with each other

the passengers will overpower us!

- Where's your head?

I'm sorry, aunty.

It's okay. It's okay.

5mm it!

Shhh. Come, come, come.

Move!

Go!

It's okay.

Open!

Little time?

Little time!

You need more time.

- This is not a Pakistani airline.

So the pilots are taking

longer to get here.

Tell him!

How much longer?

More time? 5 minutes.

10 minutes.

20... 30...

You're letting them fool you.

What are you doing here?

What are you doing here?

Go down now.

- Are you hearing me?

Khalil.

Khalil!

The devil is playing with us.

Go down now.

NOW!

I know what to do.

Brother.

Brother?

Brother?

Yes.

- Imran's no more.

If the pilots don't get here...

...then each and every one...

- Keep talking to them.

Sit. Sit!

- You killed?

Yeah, I killed him.

You next? You next?

Sit down!

Where's the radio engineer?

Where?

Oh...dead.

He's dead!

I want my mother.

- Me too.

I want my mother.

- Me too.

We'll all go home soon, okay.

Eat something.

Here.

Mom, I am not hungry.

I made this specially for you,

you must eat one.

I've a sore throat, so it hurts.

What do you feel like eating?

I don't want anything.

Seriously, I don't want anything.

It'll get wasted.

How about we ask Sharma aunty...

...to teach us how to make chow mein.

If you learn to cook a few things...

...you'|| have fewer

problems when you go back.

I feel if Laado can mould herself...

...then things will be better.

I don't mean that she isn't trying...

Who said she is going back?

Instead of making her understand,

you are encouraging her.

Girls always have to be

the ones to adjust.

Can we discuss it some other time?

Let's talk about this later.

Will things get better

by brushing this under the carpet?

There are differences
