[sizzling]
- [man 1] 'So, Zafar... - [Zafar] Yes?'
How was your trip to Kashmir?
It was nice but there was tight security everywhere.
That is obvious, The Peace Talks are going to take place...
...between the two countries after many years.
- I’m guessing, you are also going. - Of course.
I will definitely go.
In fact, people from the Ministry will also be with us.
Who is representing them?
Zafar, all the big leaders will be present from India.
Noor Mohammed, why are you dragging the kid into politics?
'He has a young and impressionable mind.'
Moreover, it’s our duty to protect the youth from undue influence.
- [man 1] 'Absolutely. - [man 2] Absolutely.'
I’m not a kid, Dad.
I understand the politics of the region.
Oh! You understand the politics of the region?
Please tell him how complicated the matter of Kashmir is.
When the youth get involved in politics without thinking much...
...it’s very easy to lead them astray.
But we have to fight against injustice, right?
What do you mean?
Should the youth pick up guns and become...
...mujahids to fight for their faith?
Son, fighting doesn’t solve anything.
Matters can be resolved through peaceful conversations.
This idea of the youth to go on guerrilla missions...
...which will send them to heaven as martyrs...
...is nothing but nonsense!
Are you saying that the youth shouldn be involved in politics?
I mean, when they get involved in it without thinking things through...
...the problem doesn’t get solved, it gets more complicated!
You don’t understand nothing, but you still want to argue!
Mr. Shabbir, you are absolutely right.
Zafar, please calm down.
Hey, Mustafa!
Go and check why the food is taking so long!
[tense music]
[Title Montage]
Good morning.
Good morning, Kabir Farooqui.
Is everything alright?
What are you so deeply thinking about?
Farah, I’m really sorry for the mistakes I’ve made.
That is in the past now.
Everything will be fine with time.
It’s not so easy for me to forget everything.
I understand.
You are giving me a chance.
That is enough for me.
Good morning, Dad.
What is keeping you so busy that you aren’t answering your phone?
What happened?
Uday has been calling repeatedly.
Well, she is such a good girl.
What is she doing with you?
- Are you jealous? - No, but I am shocked.
Come on. I’m not a waste, Dad.
I am really happy about that.
I know.
Give the tea to Farah. I’ll have a word with Uday.
And don’t be jealous. It doesn’t suit you.
[Haider] 'In your dreams!'
[IVR] 'The number you are calling'...
Your tea. I am keeping it outside.
Sure.
Today Mansoor got us lotus stems from the Dal lake...
...because the last time you were upset with him.
- You did well, Mansoor Ali. - [Mansoor] 'Thank you, Sir.'
Thank you.
[tense music]
[Mansoor] 'Thank you, Sir.'
[door creaking]
Is this your daughter?
She was.
She left us when she was three years old.
- Oh! I am so sorry. - It’s all right.
Kabir never told me, so I wasn aware. I am really sorry for this.
Some pains diminish when shared...
...while others intensify when you share them.
This is the second kind of pain.
But you know, I’m really impressed...
...that you have so many books of Habba Khatoon.
You don’t find these books easily nowadays.
I like poetry. I’ve got two volumes.
'I haven got the chance to buy the third volume yet.'
I saw it.
- Have you heard her songs? - Of course.
She is an important part of our history. How can I miss it?
She is called the Nightingale of Kashmir, right?
[Haider] 'Correct. Absolutely, the interesting thing is...'
[tense music]
[phone buzzing]
- Hi, Uday. - There’s an order from Mallik.
We have to send Farah out of Kashmir tomorrow.
'The transfer team will be waiting at the airport.'
[melancholy music]
Hey! It’s rice roti!
How did you know this is my favourite?
[Haider] 'I knew it.'
[Farah] 'It’s amazing!'
[Haider] 'Thank God.'
Your son is so lucky to have great chef like you at home!
[Haider] 'Proximity dulls appreciation.'
'My son is difficult to please.'
He has been grinning from ear to ear since you arrived.
'Otherwise...'
[both laugh]
Have it.
- Oh, hi! - [Haider] 'Have the walnuts.'
Farah, may I talk to you for a couple of minutes?
Come and sit here.
I’ll talk to you later. Come on.
What happened?
[sighs heavily]
All okay?
[Kabir] 'You have to leave for Europe tomorrow.'
[melancholy music]
[Farah] 'I thought we had more time together.'
Look at me...
I don’t want you to go either.
Should I stop you from leaving?
Anyway, I have the habit of not following orders.
No.
Will you take me to Srinagar, Kabir?
Yes. Why?
I want to buy something for Uncle so that he remembers me.
- Please. - Okay.

You haven’t told me the story of your beautiful informer yet.
Her husband had passed away a long time ago.
We were good friends, so I used to visit her house often.
- Her house? - Of course.
I was in love with her.
I was preparing for our wedding, children...
- Really? - God knows.
And then, what happened?
Her tears brought us closer, but ultimately they destroyed me.
Women can’t be trusted...
Listen. You have to give in one fine day.
'We will make sure that you do.'
So, why create so much drama?
Oh!
His wife is the one creating drama...
[metal clanging]
Wow! What a show!
Despite knowing everything...
...that she has an affair with a soldier...
...'you ended up marrying her.'
It’s okay.
Have some water.
'Actually, Junaid, I am your culprit.'
I shouldn have sent Kabir to pursue Farah.
Love ruins everything...
[metal clanging]
- You should be ashamed, Sir. - What are you saying?
How strange!
Your wife acts shamefully, but I should be ashamed!
Have some water. You’ll cool down.
[bottle crashes]
- Has the report come ? - Yes.
“Dear Doctor Farah Alam Sheikh...
...“this is an official verification to confirm...
...“a positive pregnancy test.”
[tense music]
[Junaid banging his head]
Wow! Medical science is amazing!
'Zoya thinks, it’s definitely not yours.'
It could be Kabir’s.
But you can never tell about these things.
Ouch!
Junaid, things aren’t as complicated as you are making them.
'You’ll be kept in a bungalow like the rest of the Kashmiri leaders.'
You will be treated well.
I promise you, nobody will find out...
...what you’ve told us or anyone else.
[Junaid clapping]
Okay.
My advice is, consider...
...your options carefully before making any decisions..
The rest is up to you.
She can deceive me, Sir, but I can betray Kashmir.
Come on.
You could not control one woman...A*****e!
What did you say?
Because your slutty wife slept with those scumbags...
...we are under arrest, Commander!
What sort of a Commander!
[Kashmiri abuse]
[grunts]
Let him go!
[Kashmiri abuse]
[indistinct chatter]
Fahad!
Where were you lost? You were being followed by the army!
I was lost in your memories.
I am really worried about you.
There is no need to worry about me. I am doing well.
How is our baby doing?
The doctor says everything is normal.
Thank God.
I don’t like staying apart from you.
Neither do I.
I hope Mom doesn’t trouble you too much.
Does she?
Not at all.
But she feeds me way too much.
Listen... I am arranging some money...
...so we can get out of here.
- Where? - Dubai.
- Really? - I swear.
Give my love to mom.
Fahad!
You’ve promised me that we will raise our child together.
Don’t forget.
If God wills.
Take care of yourself and the little one.
[tense music]
- [Soldier] 'Jai Hind, Sir!' - Jai Hind.
- Farah! - [Farah] 'Coming!'
[footsteps]
Here is your passport, papers and tickets for tomorrow’s travel.
Shall we go? We’ll be late. Come.
Where are you two going?
Farah’s flight is scheduled for tomorrow, right?
Dad, it’s her last day here. So, I am taking her out for lunch.
My son is trying to make an impression!
- Farah, what have you made him? - A human.
- Take care of her. - Who will take care of you, Dad?
Let’s all go to Europe. I feel like going there.
- Let me show her Srinagar first. - [Haider] 'Of course.'
- 'Farah!' - Yes?
I’m cooking something special for dinner.
Come back home in time!
Take care of yourself.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
[Junaid] 'There was no need to beat him so much.'
He shouldn’t have misbehaved.
Perhaps his anger was justified.
What do you mean?
I’m stuck after all.
I haven’t told you how I got stuck here, right?
There was a relative whom I loved.
She was in trouble. Harqat would’ve buried her alive.
I thought she would be safe if I married her...
...'and that things would change.'
I was wrong.
Love isn easy.
You are right.
The other day, you were saying...
...about the IED you made and placed under the bridge.
Was it command initiated or not?
Yes, it was.
Did it contain C3 or TNT?
TNT.
- TNT is great. - Yes.
[tense music]
- Thank you. - Thanks.
Thank you.
Where is the book...
- Hello. - Hello.
Sir, do you have the third volume of this book?
- Yes, come with me. I’ll show you. - Sure, thank you.
Excuse me.
Munafiz, no not this one...
Yes. Habba Khatoon. Volume three.
- I want this one. - Okay.
Thank you.
Flat white with hazelnut.
Just the way you like it. Am I right?
Yes.
This is exactly how I wanted it to be!
Thank you for this coffee...
...and also for this time.
I have got something for you.
What is it?
Hey! When did you buy this!
How does it matter?
- I can take this, Kabir. - It’s just a necklace.
I know but I can take it.
I’m sorry.
- Didn’t you like it? - No, that’s not what it is...
It’s very pretty.
- Really? - Yes.
Then I have the perfect idea!
The man I bought this necklace from told me...
...that the person I give this to...
...will be protected from the evil eye...
...and interestingly, she will also stay away from me.
That’s what he said.
It’s beautiful! Thank you.
Perhaps he was mistaken when he said you should avoid me.
[Farah laughs]
What are you thinking?
- You are a bomb expert, right? - Yes.
I’ll tell you a story about bombs.
Do you know Panther? I mean Umar Riaz?
We caught an officer together.
He had no courage whatsoever.
It didn’t take him long to break.
He was crying like a child. Stupid coward!
- 'Then we'... - Don’t say anything.
They could be listening. And will use it against you.
How does it matter?
There will undoubtedly be prisoner exchanges...
...during the upcoming Peace Talks.
'I will also be released.'
'It’s not a secret...'
That cowardly soldier’s fate is well known to all...
Anyway, we devised a great plan...
...Umar suggested that we implant explosives in the soldier’s stomach.
So, we cut his stomach open with precision...
...inserted the bomb there, and stitched the stomach back.
- Wasn’t it a good plan? - Absolutely.
We aren’t doctors.
So, we called Dr. Farah.
You know about her.
Dr. Farah showed up and tried her best...
...but she isn a surgeon...
...so she ended up cutting in the wrong places and there was blood...
There was blood everywhere, the entire floor was a sea of red.
Finally the day arrived, and I was given the detonator.
I was asked to press the button.
I pressed the button when the time was right and boom!
[clears throat]
- What happened? Everything okay? - Yes.
He knows something.
When you are fast asleep tonight...
...it won’t take me long to kill you.
- What? - He knows! Get him out!
You are no bomb expert. You are a spy!
TNT is not used in IED. [Kashmiri Dialogue]
- Spy! You a*****e! - Let him go!
Come on, let go of him!
Come on!
[Junaid coughing]
Welcome my lady...
Impressive.
I had no idea that you were as gentlemanly as your father.
I can be gentlemanly sometimes...
But I am not at all like my father.
He loves you a lot, even though he doesn’t tell you this.
I know. I love him, too.
- Can I say something? - Yes.
Even if you are like your father, it’s not a terrible thing!
Alright, let’s agree if you say so.
I don’t mind.
[cell phone ringing]
Who is calling?
See, we were just discussing Dad, and now he’s calling!
- Wow! - Yes, Dad?
'Dad... Hello? Dad?'
[Fareed] 'Kabir Farooqui.'
- Who is it? - [Fareed] 'Mir’s son.'
'Fahad’s brother. The voice of Kashmir.'
'You remember Mir Sahab, don’t you?'
'You killed him mercilessly in a bomb blast.'
I have met your son already.
So, I thought of meeting your Dad today.
- Where is my Dad? - [Farah] 'Kabir, what happened?'
- Where is my Dad! - [Farah] 'What...'
[tyres screeching]
Talk to your Dad.
- Here, talk to your son. - [Kabir] 'Dad.'
Come on, talk to him.
[Kabir] 'Dad'...
I’m sorry, dear...
...for all those years...
...all my absences.
I think I’ve never told you this...
...but I’m proud of you and I love you.
- And I love you, too. - [Kabir] 'Dad!'
- Don’t come here. - [Kabir] 'Dad!'
- Farooqui. - Fareed Mir!
You have no idea who you are messing with!
I’m coming! Just wait for me! A*****e!
I’m waiting for you.
F**k!
