We got Rijo Post back!
Pema, the Indian soldiers took Rijo Post back!
We got it back! We got it back!
We got Rijo Post back!
- What happened, Rinpa? - What happened?
They were going to slaughter us, weren't they?
But now we got Rijo Post back. We got it back.
Celebrate all you want.
But this flag will eventually soar on this land.
They are playing with fire.
Congratulations to all of you,
because we managed to recapture this post due to your bravery.
But we must remember
that we don't consider the enemy weak
because the Chinese won't give up easily.
But if they make another attempt,
we will give them a fitting reply.
Okay, boys?
Yes, sir.
Khattar!
What's wrong?
Look there.
Go and talk to him.
Go on.
How are you?
Why do you care?
I am your friend.
Really?
Stop being so childish...
That letter wasn't meant for you.
No, Radha.
You weren't meant for Kishan.
Do you remember
just how many times we could make our stones bounce as kids?
Yes, and Radha used to keep count.
Four for Kishan. Six for Karan.
Radha was always bad at math.
Yes, and she still is.
But love isn't mathematics, Karan.
Absolutely.
It's all destiny.
And love is betrayal.
Do you mean I betrayed you?
You knew I loved her.
And didn't you know what she meant to me?
- Then why didn't you tell me? - Did you?
And after Radha said yes, I was going to talk to you first.
But that letter caused a misunderstanding...
It wasn't a misunderstanding, Kishan.
It was an injustice... carried out by you and Radha.
- Don't drag Radha into this. - You're the one in the way, Kishan!
Karan, if Radha had chosen you over me,
I would've respected her decision.
Forget about it.
If she cared about respect at all,
she would've never taken such an incorrect decision.
She doesn't know the first thing about the family she chose.
Wait, Karan.
If I am reborn...
I would want to be reborn in the same household.
Brigadier Ping, did you brief Major Lin?
Yes, Chairman, he's updated.
Hail Chairman Premier En Lai.
- Yes, Chairman. - Please sit.
India has acquired eight border posts.
Is this true, Major Lin?
It is true, sir. Give us the order, and we will recapture all the posts.
We must reacquire all the areas,
which the British took from us and gave to them.
Are we prepared for this mission, Major Lin?
Yes, sir. It will all go according to plan.
We're completely prepared for a short-notice attack.
And our intelligence confirms
that India isn't prepared at all.
The areas that belong to us are Ladakh and NEFA.
Just like Tibet, they are our people.
Our culture.
And India cannot snatch our birthright from us.
Whether it's Ladakh or NEFA,
the biggest responsibility of the People's Republic of China
is to free its people.
Absolutely, sir.
But I've a question for you.
Where do we begin the Liberation war?
Chuhul or Tawang?
East or West?
We'll capture NEFA first
and then bargain for Ladakh.
In the end, we won't return any of the territories.
Is that clear, gentlemen?
Yes, Chairman Premier En Lai.
We're prepared for war.
I am taking all my pills on time.
Why do I still feel dizzy?
We'll have to conduct some more tests.
- Is it anything serious, Doctor? - No, I don't think so.
Could be vertigo.
And there's nothing to worry about.
- Would you like some tea? - Yes.
I've heard praises about Suraj.
- The real hero of the operation. - Yes.
- One more spoon? - No.
Here.
By the way, when is he returning home?
Maybe in the evening.
Who else was with you?
Tell me...
Stop it!
What are you doing, Ug Lee?
Their patrol party entered our territory, sir.
The others ran away, but we caught him.
He isn't talking.
What kind of a soldier would respond to questions asked in this manner?
Would you?
- Learn to respect a soldier. - Sorry, sir.
Out!
Luk Tan.
Untie him.
- Good morning, sir. - Good morning, Suraj.
Please sit down.
- Will you have some tea? - No, thank you, sir.
Tell me the position, Suraj.
Three thousand Chinese troops.
Along with eight-inch mortar.
And there's a heavy build-up in NEFA as well, sir.
Counting Rijo Post, we've reacquired eight posts in total.
The PMO wants to play this on the front foot.
They're talking about adopting the Forward Policy.
Bad idea, sir.
Forward Policy will be like stepping on the snake's tail.
In this case, the dragon.
The consequences could be devastating, sir.
Thangra, Rijo...
and Kangri.
Sir, I promised you we'll reoccupy all the captured posts.
Here they are.
Well done, General Kher. Well done.
What next, General?
Sir, according to me, the best defence would be a good offence.
General, are you suggesting we go to war?
No, I'm suggesting how to win the war.
Sir, we should announce Forward Policy.
And what exactly is that?
Traditionally there's no deployment on the McMahon Line
that exists between us and China.
Madam, we should establish our presence
on all the peaks of the mountains present on this line.
General, I don't think the world will see this action in a positive light.
Sir, China is beyond any kind of sympathy.
And, in war, those on higher grounds is the clear winner.
And if we don't announce the Forward Policy, then they will.
Lt. General Singha. What is your opinion?
Sir... it's true.
In war, those on higher grounds are the clear winners.
But heights can be cruel.
The weather up there demands sacrifice.
And our soldiers are still holding the fort
with canvas shoes and no gloves.
If there's a full-scale war,
we'll only be sending our boys to their deaths.
But if it's an order from my General and my Prime Minister,
then we'll go to war, sir.
Oh, logistics.
Don't worry about that.
All your requirements will be met.
Mr. Prime Minister, I am with General Kher.
Forward Policy is the way ahead.
I am aware that Lt. General Singha doesn't agree with our plan.
But, currently, we don't have an alternative.
Okay, let's do it.
Implement the Forward Policy.
Thank you, gentlemen. Good night.
After the successful operation in the Ladakh sector,
the Indian Government is looking to adopt an aggressive attitude.
There is talk of implementing the Forward Policy...
Suraj, you just returned from the mission,
and now you're occupied with news about the mission. Come inside.
The food's getting cold.
Now for international news after the break.
The USSR Sports Minister will be visiting India on a tour...
Oh, did you make preparations to go to Rewari?
What's wrong?
- Do I have to come? - Of course.
It's Sepoy Gopal Singh's wedding. He's my bodyguard.
Okay. I'll come.
What's wrong? Is everything all right?
Yes.
I am fine.
What did Dr. Desai say?
I have low haemoglobin and an iron deficiency.
- But I am taking my pills. - Okay.
Start your dinner. I'll finish packing.
This was unfair on the Major's part.
He went to war alone and didn't take us along.
Our commanders take every decision very carefully.
He knew that you're preparing for your personal war.
Personal war? Which one?
The war of marriage.
Wedding night.
Gopal. Check out your wedding attire.
- Isn't it nice? - It's very nice, Mother.
Well?
Take a closer look. Hardham got it especially for you from the city.
Mother, why didn't brother stitch one for himself?
After Hardham's mother passed away,
your father married me.
And after your father passed away,
Hardham took on the responsibilities of the entire family.
I often told him to get married.
But he kept saying
that he wants Gopal to settle down first.
How much longer are we going to continue meeting in secret?
I am going to talk to my father soon.
Do you think he'll give us his approval?
I am not going to ask for his approval.
I will tell him about my decision.
What's wrong with you?
I am hurt.
Why?
Karan was my closest friend.
So?
He's heartbroken, Radha.
He gave his heart to the wrong person
and broke it.
Look, Kishan, Karan is as close to me as he is to you.
But I am not a trophy to be won.
I love you, Kishan. Only you.
And don't you dare blame me for breaking your friendship?
I only said that I am hurt.
You didn't have to yell at me.
Sorry.
But I am hurt too.
Forgive me.
- Lay it out here? - Yes, here.
Should I get more?
- Hardham. Tea. - Yes, Mother.
Hurry up, Nakul.
Tea... keep it there, Mother. I'll take it later.
- Okay. And should I bring that as well? - What?
That thing you brought from the military canteen.
- Gum, gum. - That's rum, Mother.
And don't say it out loud, or they will finish it.
- Set the tea down, and let us work. - Yes, okay.
Put up the flowers quickly.
Hello, everybody.
- What are you doing here? - I have come to help you.
Oh, English.
I teach at school, buddy.
What are you doing?
- Here you go, Karan. - Yes.
Even girls can do this. Go do something worthwhile.
Our work will be a lot easier if you go home.
Go home and mind your own business.
I won't. I came with Father's permission.
- Go. - What are you doing, Radha?
- Karan. - What is it, Radha?
We have to talk.
- Let me work. - This is important.
There's nothing left to talk about, Radha.
- I see. Come here. - Radha.
Radha, what are you doing? Everyone's watching.
Is something going on between them?
- For a while now. - Really?
What is it?
Say it.
- You were going to say something. - What's up with you?
- What? - There's nothing to talk about anymore?
No.
So, our friendship means nothing to you anymore.
When friendship blossoms into love, that's a victory.
But when you have to settle for friendship instead of love,
then that's just a stupid compensation.
And, you know, I believe in nothing less than victory.
How would I know? According to you, we're no longer friends.
Why do you want to be friends?
We could've been a lot more, Radha.
And we still can.
No, Karan.
We are friends and always will be.
Good friends.
No, Radha.
I have always loved you,
I still love you,
and will always love you.
Hey, I am just a girl,
not the McMahon Line between the two of you.
Even I have a heart and a mind.
Yes, you do.
You've already given your heart.
But had you used your mind, it would've been better for you.
Put a knot here. Tie it properly.
Karan! Hey, Karan!
What's wrong with him?
What happened? Did their fight end?
While everyone was preparing for Gopal's wedding,
battle plans were being drawn at the border.
And this time, Ladakh wasn't the only battleground.
We're going to reclaim our territories in Ladakh and NEFA.
Our first step will be to capture Tooka Post,
Tawang, Along, Aflong posts.
Orders, sir.
Ug Lee, you'll lead the team to Tooka Post.
By tomorrow morning,
- this Indian post should be ours. - Yes, sir.
Hey!
Good morning, Major.
I've come to capture your post.
We even have more soldiers than you.
This isn't right. Let's play a fair game.
Let's have a fair fight.
If you win, you keep the post.
If I win, the post is mine.
Come on, Commander.
Come on.
What is he going to do?
Bloody useless.
You're useless, Commander. Useless!
Hey! Hey!
Only one of these soldiers is going to survive, Commander,
so that they can return to the base and tell everyone
what a useless and cowardly man you are.
Whom would you like to save?
Any favourites, Commander?
No?
I'll choose.
You! Stand up.
Fire!
Goodbye, Commander.
You! Run.
The Chinese brutality in NEFA sent shivers down the country's spine.
With this attack, the enemy had shown its true face
and their intentions were crystal clear.
From here, here and here.
This is how far the Chinese have infiltrated,
and they are advancing rapidly.
So, what do you propose, Singha?
Sir, I think...
you should talk to the Chinese President immediately.
I don't think so, Singha.
We're far beyond conversation.
I agree. We shouldn't show weakness.
But hiding our weaknesses is also a weakness.
Mr. Prime Minister, any conversation should take place after we retake NEFA.
I am with Krishna on this, sir.
-But I think, Mr. Prime Minister... -What you think is not important!
Quiet. Quiet.
I think we will go with General Kher.
- Welcome, sir. - Jai Hind, Karan, how are you?
I am great, sir. Welcome, madam.
- How are you, madam? - I am fine.
This is my father. He's the village head.
- Greetings, Major sir. - Greetings.
- Jai Hind, sir. - Jai Hind.
- How are you? - I am fine.
- Are the preparations done? - It's ongoing, sir.
- Where's the groom? - The groom's getting ready.
Okay, we'll get ready too.
This way, sir.
Listen, what's your name?
- Neelam. - I am Raju.
- Are you coming to the wedding? - Yes.
See you at the wedding.
Let's go and play.
Yes. Yes, sir. I've ordered that.
Take a seat.
Hardham, the Major is here.
Hello.
- Welcome, sir. - Hello, sir.
Hello.
- Hello, sir. - Gopal.
It's your wedding, and you're not ready yet?
I came out when I saw you.
We aren't going anywhere.
Gopal, we're family.
- Go and get dressed. - Yes, sir.
Sir, that's my wife.
- Hello. - Hello.
Where is the bride? Introduce me to her.
Please come inside, madam.
Come.
You're here.
- Come, I'll introduce you to my friends. - Mummy.
Come on.
Put some almonds in the milk before giving it to Gopal.
How do you know?
I heard it somewhere.
- Heard it where? - Padma,
look who is here to see you?
It's the Major's wife.
- Hello. - Hello.
She is so beautiful.
No, madam. Not as beautiful as you.
Look at her smile.
Sis, I am in this room too.
Introduce me as well.
She is my sister, Radha.
- Hello, madam. - Hello.
- Please tell me that I am beautiful too. - Radha!
You are very beautiful.
- Can we take a picture? - Yes. But how?
Manoj. Manoj.
- What are you doing? - What happened?
Take our picture.
Yes, of course.
- Please. - Come on.
One more. One more.
Thank you.
Send me a copy as well.
I'll send you the entire album, madam.
I haven't seen you in the Major's company.
-I... -He's not a soldier.
He's a teacher in our school.
He's come here to do research. He lives with us.
It's not what you think, madam.
He's a good friend of mine.
Shall I introduce you to the one I like?
- Radha! - What? Come on.
See. It's that guy eating the jalebi.
That's Sepoy Kishan.
Yes.
He's a nice guy.
He's very nice.
Can I tell you a secret?
We're going to have a love marriage.
Radha!
So what, sister? I really am.
- Have a seat. - Yes, sir.
How was your journey, sir?
We reached on time.
- Hello. - Hello.
- I am Gopal's mother. - Congratulations.
God bless you, son.
I'll send some snacks for you.
No need to take any extra effort. We'll help ourselves.
Please send something.
Look after him, okay?
- Rathod. - Yes, sir.
Get me Rewari Post Office.
Hello.
It's a call from Delhi for the Major.
Sir, you have a call from Delhi.
- Hello. - Suraj, Singha here.
I am sorry, Suraj. I know you're on leave.
But duty calls.
Report to NEFA immediately with your company.
Yes, sir.
Over and out!
What's wrong, sir?
War has been declared.
We'll have to leave for NEFA tonight.
- Soldiers. - We're ready, sir.
Me too.
Not you, Gopal. You got married today.
No, sir. I am a soldier.
This is my first war.
I'll celebrate my wedding night after I return.
Try to understand, Gopal.
Sir, Gopal is right. Let him come along.
Every family has a wife and children,
as well as elderly people.
When the country's safe, everyone's safe.
Okay.
Calcutta Mail is coming to Rewari tonight.
Start preparing.
- Scramble. - Yes, sir.
I thought we'll spend a couple of days in the village.
But the Chinese foiled all my plans.
Please visit us again, madam.
We didn't get a chance to show our hospitality this time.
Of course.
Okay, let's go. It's a long journey.
Sorry, my little Chin-Chin Chu.
It's fine.
- It's okay. - Take care.
- You too.
Neelam.
Bye.
Please visit us again. Hey!
Come, let's prepare.
Come on.
What happened? Why the long face?
Father, I will marry Neelam one day.
Shut up!
See you.
God bless you, son.
- Mother. - Don't worry.
You have Dada Kishan's blessings.
Take care of Mother and Father.
Never!
I won't even look in this direction.
What are you saying?
A stupid question gets a stupid answer.
You don't need to ask me twice.
Now, let's go. It's getting late.
- Wait! - What is it now?
What about a hug?
- In front of my parents? - So what?
Is hugging wrong, Mother?
No, not at all.
You're furious, aren't you?
I am not.
I married a soldier.
I accept everything.
I'll be back soon.
- Victorious. - Yes, madam.
I'll take you to Kashmir once I'm back.
Coming, brother!
See you.
God bless you.
Kashmir.
Take care.
Let's go.
This is so heartbreaking.
On their wedding night, the bridegroom had to leave for war.
I hope he got back safe.
It's a war.
It's unpredictable.
Nobody knows if they will return in one piece or if they will return at all.
Until then, the entire family keeps praying.
But the soldiers never show it.
They welcome everyone with a smile and also bid farewell with a smile.
Suraj, they have captured practically every forward post.
The casualties are beyond our imagination.
Along, Aflong, Tawang, Sela.
And all the posts around Sela.
Where do we begin, sir?
Tooka Post.
If we recapture Tooka Post,
then we can send reinforcements from Bhutan
and we can retake all these posts.
When do you want Tooka Post?
- As soon as possible. - And when will reinforcements arrive?
The Sikh and Rajput regiments will reach your position in the morning.
- Any questions? - How many shells do we get, sir?
Two boxes, 2.5 inches.
Is that all? Nothing else?
Courage and this radar. They can both be found locally.
- They will come in handy. - Yes, sir.
You'll be deployed three kilometres from Tooka.
There's jungle ahead.
- Sir. Thank you, sir. - Good luck.
Attention.
