You must believe that your

brother will return.

Don't let fear fester in your heart.

There's some words like that

in Gandhiji's list.

Banne uncle's list.

"Fear is our enemy."

It means...

...you must rid your heart

of your fears.

What do you fear most in life?

Partner, do you believe?

Yes, partner. I believe.

Partner, do you have self-belief?

How can you walk in those boots?

Walk? We had better run

for our lives.

Or else we'll all be dead.

Don't be crazy.

They'll shoot if we try anything.

He's right.

We must run...

...if we want to survive.

What's the next one?

This is short and sweet.

"Truth is my god."

Do you understand?

This is really simple.

"Speak the truth."

For how long?

Always.

"Always" is a long time.

It goes on and on...

...till the very end.

Don't have that much time.

So tell the truth to those

to whom you have lied.

Smart! My work will be done sooner.

Let's go.

Teacher...

Go on!

Panditji...

Go on!

Aunty...

Go on.

Sir, remember when you

punished me outside...

...all day long?

Remember when I was a kid...

...you asked me to offer milk

to Lord Shiva on Shivrati?

Aunty, remember the night

of the flood...

...you sent me looking

for your husband?

I said I couldn't find him.

I was angry and poured water

into your bag. Remember?

Never mind, son. It happens.

I told you Lord Shiva drank

the milk before my very eyes.

- Remember.

- Yes, I remember!

Lord Shiva drank the milk...

...performing a great miracle.

I remember. The next day the

poor man came home exhausted.

That wasn't water, sir.

It wasn't water?

- What was it?

- It was...

It was pee, sir.

Panditji, that was not

the Lord's miracle.

A small boy drank the milk.

That boy was...

...me.

I did find him.

You damn Tubelight!

Your husband gave me a jalebi.

A jalebi? Why?

Because he was feeding

jalebis to Nattu's aunt.

So?

He wasn't using his hands,

but his lips...like this.

Run, Guo.

Laxman, stop!

Run, Guo.

You sinner!

"Truth is my god."

They must have news of Bharat.

- Let's ask the Major.

- OK.

Bharat is not among them.

Go home.

And hurry! Get your friend

out of here.

There is too much tension.

Now go.

"Increased fighting is expected

in the Aksai Chin zone.

According to our reports...

...over 200 Indian soldiers

have died.

The enemy offensive has damaged

the morale of our soldiers."

Oh no.

Did you know that Ghuman Singh's

two sons were killed?

Oh Lord Shiva.

This loser never learns.

My blood boils when I see

them.

Must you stay glued to him?

What's he to you?

He's my friend.

Get back!

You traitor. The Chinese

cannot be our friends.

Our brothers are dying

and you two...

I'll show him.

I won't spare either of you.

No!

No! Run, Guo, run.

I won't spare him.

You and your son had better

leave tomorrow.

Only Indians live in Jagatpur.

Who are you to decide who

is Indian and who is not?

We have as much right as you

to live here.

We're Indians because we believe

it in our hearts.

We don't need a certificate

from anyone to prove it.

Liling-ji is right.

Shut up!

If you befriend enemies,

your brother will never return.

Sure he will. I'll bring him back.

You'll bring him back?

Hear that?

Tubelight of all people!

This number one moron

will bring his brother back.

I will bring him back.

Wait and see.

And how will you do it?

If one has belief,

anything is possible.

Shut up! You and your "belief!"

You moved one silly bottle,

now you lecture on belief.

What's a bottle? You can

even move mountains.

Move mountains, eh?

Your zipper is never zipped up.

And you'll move mountains.

A mountain, my foot!

There it is. Try!

Show everyone. Come on.

Make it move!

If you can move it an inch,

I'll shave off my moustache.

You don't have to do it.

He just wants to make

a fool of you.

Shut up! You've said enough.

- Stop!

- Maya, don't butt in.

- Enough!

- Make him see sense.

Why are you making a scene?

One minute...

That was no earthquake.

A great power moved

the mountain.

What power?

The papers say it

was an earthquake.

People need excuses

to believe in miracles.

OK. Let's assume it was

an earthquake...

...but how did it happen?

I don't know.

It was a miracle. I saw it

with my own eyes.

So build a temple in his name!

It was a miracle.

Children, you should

believe in science.

It was just an earthquake.

Laxman just happened

to be there.

Teacher, I saw Laxman

with my own eyes.

He moved the mountain like this.

Sit down!

For 35 years,

I've seen this mountain every day.

I swear it.

It seems to have shifted

to the right.

Am I wrong?

A little to its right... do you see it?

Goodness me!

Have you read this?

Yes. I heard there was

an earthquake.

No, not an earthquake.

It was Laxman, he moved

the mountain.

Get lost!

Don't even mention holidays.

Hey Laxman. Sit down.

I'll make you a drink.

No, sir. Alcohol consumed

my father.

A true miracle!

They say you moved

the mountain...

...by doing something

like this. Right?

Sir, my belief has really grown.

So find a way to stop this

cruel fighting, my Captain...

...so all our men come home.

And the Chinese soldiers can

go home to their children, too.

Sir, if the fighting stops...

...will all the soldiers

return home?

Yes, Captain.

And so will your brother.

We're here.

China is to the east.

Where is east, Liling-ji?

Where the sun rises.

That's where China is.

Why do you ask?

I must stop the fighting, Liling-ji.

Major Tokas said Bharat will not

return till it ends.

You'll stop the fighting?

You mean like this?

Yes, Liling-ji.

Look Laxman, you did not

move that mountain.

And you did not cause

that earthquake.

But Liling-ji, you saw it

with your own eyes.

Yes, Laxman. But no one can

move a mountain.

To move mountains is just

a saying.

Self-belief is a very

precious thing.

But it cannot perform miracles.

And if something happens that you

did not wish for...

...then do not think that

your belief did not work.

We must believe, Laxman.

Believe that Bharat will return.

I must believe that my father

will return too.

We must believe this cruel

war will end some day.

"Despite the bravery of

the Indian soldiers...

...they were forced to retreat

from Walong.

Heavy shelling at Chushul

was reported late last night.

264 Indian soldiers have

lost their lives.

The Chinese are bombing our

posts from every direction."

It's getting from bad to worse.

It's impossible to even bring

their bodies back.

The fallen soldiers turn to ice

on the spot, frozen...

...with their rifles.

O Lord Shiva!

My broken heart...

...burns in your flame.

Wherever you may be...

...you live in my heart.

My broken heart...

...flows in your waves.

Wherever you may be...

...you live in my heart.

You may live in this world

or in the next.

You are everywhere.

This is my only belief.

You are everywhere.

Forever and ever...

...in every way you are

my only belief.

Each time I remember you...
