'The day hangs on India.'
'I have stopped counting the corpses.'
'I don't even look at the wounded now.'
'I, who never wait for anyone..'
'..am waiting for this war to end.'
'I am counting the days and the moments.'
'War rages all through the day.'
'The arrows and spears fly.'
'Sparks fly from the clashing maces.'
'Half dead warriors are unable to..'
'..save themselves from..'
'..approaching chariots.'
'Their screams are lost in the thunder of the chariots.'
'What was once a living creature..'
'..becomes a corpse in just a moment.'
'The sun sets and the warriors..'
'..wait patiently for the dawn.'
'The rising sun..'
'..like the setting sun..'
'..Iooks bloodied by the war.'
'Then the arrows begin to fly about again.'
Grandsire?
When even you and Sage Drona cannot fight..
..the combination of Krishna and Arjun..
..who can stop them?
You have debarred the warrior who can do so!
Arjun's death is essential for our victory.
You will not kill him..
..nor will you allow Karna to fight.
He will not fight under my flag.
If you doubt my loyalty to Hastinapur..
..you can choose another commander.
I did not say that, Grandsire.
I cannot even think of that.
Your greatest fault is that you do not think.
If you could think..
..you would have accepted Krishna's request.
You are responsible for this heap of corpses.
Now go away and let me fight.
Be assured, as long as I hold this bow..
..your army will not be defeated.
Kill them.
Why doesn't the sun set?
Yesterday it set when I didn't want it to.
Today I want it to set and it won't!
The sun will not change its pace for you.
Forget the sun and look to your enemies.
"Who will recognize.."
"..whose blood has fallen?"
"Blood will mix with blood."
"Death will stand silent."
My respects, uncle!
What's wrong?
All day I heard the sounds of war..
..and wondered who was winning.
Then I thought..
..with Grandsire's boon of wishful death..
..only you could win the war.
It is this boon which has created a problem.
Has created a problem.
He won't kill the Pandavas and none can kill him.
Were it not for this boon..
..we would have nominated another commander.
This son of Ganga, the best among Indians..
..will not let us lose the war but..
..he will not let us win either.
What's the point in having a commander..
..who will neither lose nor win.
I did not want to make him commander but you.
Sometime words like 'but' stand before us..
..and we have to confront them.
Had you appointed Karna as commander..
..then you would stand alone in the battlefield..
..with your friend, brothers and uncle.
Stand alone in the battlefield.
The other kings of India would not be with you.
What can I do? Arjun's death is essential.
Grandsire will not kill Arjun..
..who has killed so many of our warriors.
I would myself kill Grandsire Bhishma..
..if I could appoint another commander.
I want to win this war.
I cannot win it without Karna's help.
If Arjun is the problem, Karna is the answer.
If you want Arjun nullified then think of..
..who can be appointed commander instead of Grandsire.
We need not even think about this.
If the Pandavas wish to win this war..
..they must find a way to eliminate Grandsire.
Why should we do their work for them?
Besides, Krishna is with them.
Let them think of a solution.
They, too, confront the same problem.
The problem of Grandsire Bhishma!
Arjun.
Looks like you have decided to lose this war.
How often have I said he is not your Grandsire..
..but your enemy.
All those who side with evil are your enemies..
..man's enemies and my enemies.
Do you know how many of your soldiers he has killed?
You are indebted to these soldiers, Arjun.
You are indebted to them.
If you will not kill Grandsire then..
..I'll kill him and fulfill your debt.
Welcome O Krishna!
You have broken your vow to release me from life!
By doing so, you have honoured me.
Look I have set aside my bow and arrows.
I'll be honoured in the three worlds.
Let your divine weapon be the messenger..
..of my release from this life.
Keshav!
No Keshav.
Forgive me, O Lord!
O Krishna! You are bound by your oath that..
..you will not fight this war.
If you raise a weapon in this war..
..history will never forgive me.
My Lord! Save me from this taint.
I give you my word, I'll fight sincerely.
Raise your bow, Grandsire.
O Lord! If this sun does not set for some time..
..I promise I'll end the war today.
I'll end this war today.
This war is being fought for man's welfare.
Hence, it cannot violate the laws of nature.
So, let the sun follow the laws of nature.
It seems you did not listen to me carefully.
You have to merely do your duty.
You may fight the war but cannot control its result.
So, Arjun! Fight and leave the result to me.
Don't look at the sun but fight!
As you order!
My respects, Grandsire!
Are the wounds very deep?
You cannot see the deepest wound.
You stand beneath the mightiest tree in India.
Where will you go without it?
Move this herbal cream.
These wound's mean nothing.
Nothing is lost yet.
Make peace with them.
Return Indraprasth to them.
Even if I lose Hastinapur..
..I'll not give an iota of land to them.
Now I am certain that I cannot win..
..as long as you, Sages Drona and Kripa are with me.
What are you saying Duryodhan?
If these three warriors were not with you..
..you would have lost the war long ago.
Maybe you are right, uncle.
But had they wanted I would have won the war.
My army knows that its commander will not kill..
..the Pandavas whom they are fighting.
No tree will cut its own branches.
I love you no less than the Pandavas.
If it were not so you would not live..
..after insulting me thus.
Like the Pandavas, you too, are protected by my love.
No weapon can pierce this protection.
So, accept my blessings and go and rest.
You have to fight tomorrow.
- One request, Grandsire. - No!
As long as I am the commander..
..Karna will not fight under my flag.
Can I ask..
..why you are punishing Karna?
He has insulted my teacher, Parshuram.
No disciple of his can be so indecent.
He called Draupadi a whore in open court.
A man who cannot respect a woman..
..will not fight under my banner.
If that's a crime then we are all responsible.
I and even you!
Duryodhan did not mean it, Grandsire.
King of Gandhar. Please don't call me, Grandsire.
Please don't call me Grandsire.
These relationships have no meaning in this era.
They are mere words, used as insults.
The meaning of what Duryodhan just said..
..was exactly what I understood.
Waging war for you is a punishment for me.
Waging war for you.
Now go!
Leave me alone with my guilt.
But Grandsire..
It's my bad luck that I am your Grandsire.
Had we not been related..
..I would have forsaken you.
Time and again you have insulted my age.
Swallowing this poison of humiliation..
..I live for Hastinapur.
I live for Hastinapur.
None among you is worth living for.
If you doubt my loyalty appoint someone else.
Appoint someone else?
So that you can fight for the Pandavas?
That cannot be! That never will be! Never!
Your loyalty, your belief, your soul..
..may be with the Pandavas but..
..you'll have to fight for me.
My respects!
These wounds..
Even you won't listen to me now!
Let these wounds be.
They will heal on their own.
- As you order! - Go.
Welcome brothers!
I was searching for Duryodhan and Dushasan.
But you also must be destroyed.
Sanjay!
Can't your eyes see anything good?
Can you only see the defeat of my army?
Can you only see Arjun, Bheem, Nakul, Sahadev..
..and Yudhishtir fight this war?
Have my sons forgotten how to fight?
Grandsire, Drona, Kripa, Shalya, Ashwathama..
..what are they doing?
They are fighting but..
But.. Don't use words like 'but' in my presence.
They have always gone against me.
I must go to Gandhari.
My lord!
Where's your hand, my dear?
What happened in battle today?
Today..In battle..
..ten sons..
What happened to our ten sons?
They died in battle!
Ten..
Our ten sons!
Which means this great war..
..is about to end.
I had a dream last night.
I was standing alone in a forest.
All around me lay green trees, saved off.
You came to me and said..
..let's go Gandhari!
I asked..
..who has cut these green trees?
You replied..
..I have cut them.
I asked..
..how many did you cut?
You replied..
..one hundred!
I was frightened.
I caught hold of your shoulder..
..and asked, Have you cut trees..
..or killed my sons?
You did not reply..
And..
..I woke up.
Are you saying that..
..I am responsible for my sons' death?
No, my lord!
I am not saying that.
I only told you of my dream.
I ran away from Sanjay to come here..
..hoping you would understand my pain..
..and give me courage.
However, if I am alone even with you..
..then it only means..
..that I am truly alone.
Go to sleep!
Dream of something else.
I shall return to hear of it.
My lord!
Only the two of us are..
..alone and unhappy.
A father who has lost his sons..
..should not be alone.
None will understand your language of tears.
Hence, sit here!
We both have to cry!
"One has to pay back.."
"..for one's own sins."
"If one has sown evil.."
"..the fruit will also be evil."
