---

One is daughter, her name is Alavia.

The other one is a boy.

By the grace of god, after 6 months

a new guest is going to come.

Congrats man.

Which means in the

coming snow season.

In which classes are the children?

The boy is studying in second

standard. And daughter?

At the native, there are problems

in sending daughter's to school.

What is this? Are you sending

your daughter to school?

Yes.

Have you gone mad?

Taliban won't permit that?

Will shoot. On your daughter

and also on me.

How to shoot bullets like that.

For that we are in Pakistan, no?

Who is this Taliban, not to permit

my daughter to study in school?

You are a soldier , you will go with in

tmro or four years. But they will kill us.

Take your daughter home,

without saying anything...

And teach the works at home.

Father, I want to go to school.

Hey lady, cover the face!

Man, doesn't the girls

in Pakistan go to school?

No, nothing like that.

In towns and all no problem.

But in village areas, this

Taliban creates problems.

Then you must send them to town.

My bhai, my name is Musharaf

Khan not Parvez Musharaf.

For a Pakistani soldier to dream

he should look into the budget.

You bring your family to our country.

Can do the children's

education here.

Ha..Good to hear all this.

But I've a wish.

My grand father's

tomb is there in Punjab.

I wish to go there once, along with

mother, Insha Alla (God permits)

Worry not. Along with mother and

children you come to Wagh border.

From there I'll take you.

To grandfather's tomb.

And from there to Kerala.

And two weeks in Pattambi.

What do you say?

Because at Pattam bi no one

has ever seen a Pakistani.

You will become a hero.

Let me ask one thing,

what is that in your hand?

This one, this is mouth organ.

Mouth organ, do you just hold

this or do you play this?

Do you want to hear?

Bhai, what is there to ask?

"The rain in the sky

has showered and gone"

"The leaves are fallen in the wind"

"As one river unites

with the other river"

"They flow as one river that does

not over flow to the shores"

"On each of the hearts, the love

remains as an endless rain"

"There after again it

rains without rhyme"

"The rain in the sky

has showered and gone"

"The leaves are fallen in the wind"

"On the damp heart, with sorrows

solace is faded off to a distance"

"On a distant branch to nest

the singing bird at night flutters"

"On the lips the smile is vanished

and it is touched by silence"

"And in the memories

of departed lover"

"By its own nature, is it wafting?"

"The rain in the sky

has showered and gone"

"The leaves are fallen in the wind"

"Within eyes of jasmine flower, even

during fading out, smile will never die"

"During parting, the dear relations

are like tenderjasmine flowers"

"if it is to wither away, memories are

there don't they blossom again?"

"The un ending sorrow

will it fade out?"

"The rain in the sky has

showered and gone"

"The leaves are fallen in the wind"

What is your wife's name?

Hanara.

Nice.

'My dear Hanara.

Greetings in the name of god'

'I'm fine here, hope you are

fine by the grace of Allah'

'Initially I was sad here being alone'

'But now I've got a friend,

whom we all call ourfoe'

'During Ramzan he took

the fasting along with me'

'Don't know why this

world is calling us enemies'

'He has called us to India'

'During this time's holidays, if god

allows. On getting visa must go to India'

Daughter was is written?

Is everything okay?

Mother, everything is fine,

he has written about...

...a friendship with an Indian soldier.

Its nice to hear about their friendship.

Musharaf! Did you die?

Bacardi, bring the magazine.

(Sound of radio in the back ground)

Why are you laughing, man?

Nothing. Good to see that.

A soldier who is alone, hoisting and

saluting his national flag with pride.

Is he making fun of us?

Why don't you do all this?

The things like republic day and all.

Yup. Its there.

Wait, wait one minute.

Hey man, last time also he

spoke the same thing, is it not?

What independence day man?

When to get the

actual independence?

Only when the time comes, when

our presence is not required here?

During those times, the soldiers

like us doesn't need to...

...stand like these places.

Without iron fences,

national boundaries...

...An India and Pakistan

without hostility.

On that day will get the actual

independence. To you and to me.

And this Pakistan!

Stop..stop it!

Till now I've heard what you've told.

But if you say anything about

my country, that I'll not tolerate.

Just like you I'm also a soldier who

loves my country. Did you get it?

What is that?

That is what you say patriotism.

'Vathan Parasthi'

That is patriotism.

Was 17 years...

My younger brother was only 17 years.

By telling the name of Jihad...

He was also taken to Kashmir.

Was given no news

to family members.

From Kashmir what was

returned was his dead body.

Allah, there were 11

bullets found on his body.

The 11 bullets of your army!

Mother, had not looked at his body.

Do you know what she told?

Never a true Muslim will

destroy the peace of the world.

Told, if any one does like that,

his death will be also like this.

Okay man, has to go.

And one more thing

I'm telling today...

...I promise you through

this picket of mine.

No one will trespass

into your nation.

As long as this Musharaf is alive!

Let Allah protect.

Hey, is it a definite promise?

Musharaf! Are you alive or not?

Mush araf!

If you are alive in your bunker and if

you want to see the fun of my death.

Then you may pray to Allah.

Because if I return alive...

I'll kill you!

You..You are finished man!

You come to Wagh

border, I'll kill you!

Really tired man. How long

to fight alone like this?

Can I sustain? I don't know.

Whatever happens, I'll not

give myself to them alive.

You must run, up to the base camp.

Don't stay here.

As long as Havildar

Harindran is alive.

Through picket 43, no one

will enter into the soil of India.

Fool!

Kneel down.

You shoot!

Will attain salvation!

What if I spare you?

We'll fight for Kashmir!

Any one is there?

I was about to leave you.

Stupid, how old are you?

Only 17 or 18, no?

You all must be...

Is there anyone else?

Then come on.
