This country has never accepted|Muslims and it never will...

How can you be so passive!

Do you ever see me|mixing with a Hindu?

I'm not you and I don't want|to be like you brother.

I can't fill myself with so much hate...

Coward that's what you are.

Stop it!

I feel suffocated in this house.|It's the same old thing every single day...

Carnivals will be held on our|graves every year,

That's all that will be left of us,|when we die for our country.

Well said Ashfaq Sahab...

If the English could hearyou they|would leave this country in a moment.

So what has been decided?

We'll steal the Empire's money|from the train that passes Kakori.

And with that money we will buy arms.

Bismil will explain everything.

Yes Bismil... Where is my Ram?

Ljust can't find my|Ramprasad Bismil.

Relax. We will find him.

But where? How?

Very soon. Don't you wo...

You won't get Ramprasad|Bismil out here.

You need a true Indian.

How can you find Indian|revolutionaries amongst...

...people who want to be Westerners?

Ignore him. Let's go.

Ramprasad Bismil wished to|be reborn a hundred times...

...so that he could give his life for his|country a hundred times over.

Let's go Sue.

So where do you think|I can find my Bismil?

I don't believe this.

This day, we walk along with death,|and laugh at its pale spectre.

We will not fearthose cruel swords,|our courage is far sharper.

Mistake not our silence for submission.|For beneath lies lava, molten.

O Martyre, O men of valour.|One day the enemy will sing your praises.

We will show our mettle|when the moment of truth arrives...

...for courage lives in deeds,|not boastful lies.

We've gathered in the enemy's lair,|my friend...

In the hope of dying for our motherland.

We will not fearthose cruel swords,|our courage is far sharper.

This day, we walk along with death,|and laugh at its pale spectre.

We will not fearthose cruel swords,|our courage is far sharper.

Sue, this isn't London.|You don't know what kind...

...of scum, men like Laxman Pandey are.

Look Sue if he is a part of this,|then I can't do the film.

If you have any problems|with me say it on my face.

Don't stab me in the back like a coward.

Pandey leave!|We don't want trouble...

Speak you coward.|What were you saying?

Aslam, where are you going?

Coward, what were you saying?

Hey you! How dare you hit Aslam?

SUKHI:

Thrash him.

I'm sorry,|I took you guys in my film.

God knows what made me come here...

You know we've got a problem|with Pandey. There's a lot of bad blood.

And if I stay, it's sure to happen again.|No, Sue.

We've worked it out.

You won't have any problems.

Sue... we all know how much|this film means to you.

We want to help you finish|what you came here to do.

Everyone wants you to stay.

I want you to stay.

Say something...

Don't worry, you're in safe hands.

Come on... Get up... Come here.

She's not going anywhere.

Now just chill.

UTv

Take some soil of my land,|the scent of this air...

Add the breath of my being,|the throbbing of my heart...

And the zeal, that|races through my blood...

Take all these, and stir it.|Then watch as it brings out the colour...

Take all these, and stir it.|Then watch as it brings out the colour...

Watch as it brings out|the colour of patriotism, my friend.

Watch as it brings out the colour.

Bismil's sent a message...

...that the Lucknow train...

...carrying the Empire's money...|will be looted by us in Kakori...

...while eating Kakori kababs.

And we will buy bombs with that money.

Leave her alone...|She will stop giving milk.

Give colour to your dreams.|And those of your people.

Give colour to your happiness.|And your sadness too.

Give colour to generations...|Give colour to the field...

Give colour to the beat of your heart.|And that of your music.

Give colour to every cheek.|Give colour to your eyes...

Watch as it brings out the|colour of patriotism my friend.

Watch as it brings out the colour...

Take some soil of my land,|the scent of this air...

Add the breath of my being,|the throbbing of my heart.

And the zeal, that races|through my blood.

Take all these and stir it.|Then watch as it brings out the colour.

Take all these and stir it.|Then watch as it brings out the colour.

Watch as it brings out the|colour of patriotism, my friend.

Watch as it brings out the colour.

Hey Short-stuff!

Did you get Bismil's message?

No.|No! Then Listen...

The train that's Kakori...|will be looted in eight days.

It's loaded with the Empire's money.

Will you loot it?|No.

We will be buying arms from it.

What will we buy?|Arms...

Yes... Very Good... go now.

On a slow fire, won't you,|put this passion to cook.

Then as it simmers,|add a babbling brook.

Add a river, and an ocean.|Maybe a pot of water.

Then sprinkle a bit. Stir it all up.|And watch as it brings out the colour.

Watch as it brings out|the colour of patriotism, my friend.

Bismil has sent a message...

...the Lucknow train...

...which carries the Empire's money...

...will be looted by us in|seven days, in Kakori...

And we will buy bombs with that money.

Now paint the whole town with it.|Paint your very being.

Paint your every vein with it.|Paint it with a smile.

Paint those childhood years, won't you.|Paint the flush of youth.

Don't hesitate, my friend.|Paint your patriotism over everything.

Watch as it brings out the|colour of patriotism, my friend.

Take some soil of my land,|the scent of this air.

Take some soil of my land,|the scent of this air.

Add the breath of my being,|the throbbing of my heart.

And the zeal,|that races through my blood.

Take all these and stir it.|Then watch as it brings out the colour.

Watch as it brings out the|colour of patriotism, my friend.

Watch as it brings out the colour.

Watch as it brings out the|colour of patriotism, my friend.

British Officers...|around 20 to 25 of them.

We have to call it off! We've nearly|reached Kakori. Stop Ashfaq, quick.

Ashfaq, stop!

It's too late to back out now...|Come on... Move!

Get inside!

Keep the windows shut...

Come on!

The keys!

You won't get away with this.

Give me the keys!|- I don't have it.

Banwari get the sledge hammer.

I'll handle them.|You go get the money...

I've committed my life|to the freedom of this country.

Comfort, and other worldly|desires do not attract me.

I know you want me to|get married and settle down...

...like all parents do.

But freedom is my bride.

I hope you'll forgive me.|Your most obedient son, Bhagat.

Let's take a break.

Breakfast?|No...

Put it there.

General Dyer? How can one even think|of doing something like this?

I can't believe that he actually killed more|than 400 people at Jallianwala Baugh.

Actually nearly 1000|people were butchered...

Last year at the tomb of Peer Sai,|I prayed for Daljeet's well being.

Who's Daljeet?

We were the epitome of tolerance.

Even an ant reacts. But we are conditioned|to take everything lying down.

Rubbish! It's today's generation|which lacks the will to do anything
