as well as jaundice.

Only one child has survived.

She also has jaundice.

Sir!

Good morning, sir.

Sir, Poorna's cousin is ill.

Please speak to Poorna.

Sir, we don't know what is going on!

Please, please do something!

Sir.

All right. Thank you, sir.

A doctor and an ambulance are coming.

Here.

Come.

Priya!

Puru.

My dear father!

My dear father!

All the ties

Were severed

My dear father!

All the ties

Were severed

The day has come to an end

And the night slowly took over

Poorna, don't be careless!

One more time!

Poorna, this is ascending! These

are the basics of mountain climbing!

You have done it thousands of times!

Climb up!

When Priya needed me,

I wasn't there by her side.

Sir, not me.

Priya should have been here.

She was better than me in everything.

All this is my fault.

What am I doing all this for, sir?

For what?

Poorna, I don't want to force you.

I don't want to put any pressure on you.

But before you decide anything,

think it through.

Because this decision

will be yours and yours alone.

I am not a Power Girl, sir.

I am not a Power Girl.

Your heart is broken.

It doesn't mean you lack ability.

Brought back your kit? Give it to me.

Where are the shoes?

Yes!

Poorna, one minute.

There was a letter for you...

Many days ago. You were out, training.

Yes!

This initiative has been born in India,

brought up in Andhra,

and will be made in, Telangana!

Ladies and gentlemen! Please welcome

our young Everest hopeful, Anand Kumar!

Congratulations, Anand!

You are going to be a part of history.

Make us proud!

Thank you, sir. I will try my best, sir.

But Poorna is a better climber than I.

What do you mean?

A great mountain deserves

a great climber, sir.

Praveen?

Then why is she not going?

Has she not qualified?

The Hyderabad to Pakala bus leaves

in ten minutes.

I will go and get some water.

Take your medicine.

Look after yourself. Write letters.

Go. Go now.

My dearest Puru.

Remember Puru, when we used

to climb that hillock,

I said I would build a road

from our village to the city.

That road never got built.

But when you summit

the world's tallest hillock

it will connect our village

to the rest of the world forever.

And if I give birth to a girl,

I will name her Poorna,

and obviously call her Puru.

I am in my last month.

The doctor has said

I can deliver any day.

Your loving sister, Priya.

Sir, I have found my reason.

What a storm is it

Where a mountain

can change its course

What a flight is it

That loses breath when it's high

You have to believe in yourself

Run till you have

breath in your body

You have to write history!

If you can shake mountains

Your efforts are worthwhile

If you can shake mountains

Your efforts are worthwhile

Even after you leave

Welcome to Tribhuvan

International Airport, Kathmandu.

The temperature outside

is 24 degrees Celsius.

Do something precious

That makes your life meaningful

You have to do it

If you can shake mountains

Your efforts are worthwhile

If you can shake mountains

Your efforts are worthwhile

One, two, never cry.

Three, four, always love

Five, six, live as one

Seven, eight, study hard

One, two, never cry.

Three, four, always love

Five, six, live as one

Seven, eight, study hard

How many are there?

What?

Insects.

When I was your age...

Forget Everest,

I was terrified of Chemistry.

I still am.

Poorna, you do know you are not alone,

right? We are all with you.

Yes, sir.

As it is she is running a temperature

of 104 degrees and now this avalanche!

If something happens to that girl,

what will we do?

Meena, look,

please don't panic like this.

I know you are worried about the girl.

Of course I am worried!

Of course I care, the government cares.

But this Operation Everest expedition

has my signature on it.

Look! I accept 16 people have died,

but they were on the Nepal side.

Our children are ascending

from the China side.

It makes no difference, Alexander.

And you, if you are feeling bad

about calling them back,

please take a vacation then.

I will call them back.

Sir, tomorrow two expeditions have

been cleared to attempt the summit.

This is our last chance, sir.

Fever has gone.

Her breathing is normal.

She is in much better shape than before.

Poorna. Mr. Praveen Kumar.

Hello, Poorna?

Yes, sir.

Poorna, there has been

an avalanche on the Nepal side.

We don't know what the situation

is like on the China side.

Poorna, it is not safe for you.

We are also very concerned

about your health.

The fact that you have reached

where you have is a victory in itself.

No, sir.

Poorna. You don't have

to prove anything to anyone.

Sir. I can do it, sir.

I can do it, sir.

I have full faith

in what we have learnt.

Sir, I shall never give up.

I shall always think big and aim high.

I shall never fear the unknown.

Praveen! Why didn't you convince her?

What do we do?

Sir, it's your decision.

But the girl says she will not return.

What?

What options do we have?

She wants to climb, sir.

Sir, how can you leave

the choice to that girl?

Sir, sometimes we make choices,

sometimes choices make us.

Hello, sir.

Poorna, you have been cleared to go.

You have been cleared to go.

Yes, sir.

Show the world, you are our Power Girl.

I will do it, sir.

No reverse gears.

Good luck, Poorna.

Thank you, sir.

Sir, what now?

Now the phone will ring

when she summits.

And if it doesn't?

What are you doing? Huh?

Come on! Get up!

We have to climb the hillock!

We have to climb the hillock!

Come on!

What are you doing lying down?

I am with you! Come on!

Priya?

It's me!

Poorna, have you forgotten

the song I taught you?

One, two, never cry.

Three, four, always love.

Five, six, live as one.

Seven, eight, study hard.

Nine, ten, laugh your loudest!

One, two, never cry.

Hi, sir!

- Congratulations, Anand!

- Thank you, sir!

You have truly changed your fate.

Sir, you joined the police force again?

Yes! I was only waiting

for you to summit.

Come, please. Let us proceed.

Congratulations, Poorna.

From today onwards

I will be known because of you.

Enjoy this moment, because from today

your life isn't yours alone.

Poorna! Poorna!

Poorna!

Poorna! Poorna!

You are the youngest girl

in history to climb Mount Everest.

Who do you attribute this success to?

Congratulations, Poorna!

Who is the inspiration behind

your fantastic achievement?

Pravin Kumar sir, we are SWAEROES.

We're on the top of Everest.

Congratulations.

Your name should be remembered
