WEBVTT

00:24.563 --> 00:26.646
<i>Hercules Formation, abort mission.</i>

00:26.730 --> 00:29.355
<i>Negative.</i>
<i>We can't return without Hyena Two.</i>

00:29.438 --> 00:31.146
<i>Hercules One, it is too risky.</i>

00:31.230 --> 00:33.396
<i>There are stingers out there, Hercules.</i>

00:33.480 --> 00:35.896
Nishi's alone.
I won't return without finding him.

00:35.980 --> 00:38.521
<i>You're deviating from</i>
<i>your planned mission.</i>

00:53.438 --> 00:54.855
Stinger spotted.

01:07.021 --> 01:09.355
<i>Chief, we have good news.</i>

01:09.438 --> 01:12.021
<i>We just shot down</i>
<i>an Indian Air Force jet in Kargil.</i>

01:13.063 --> 01:14.146
Brilliant.

01:15.771 --> 01:16.813
Now let's see

01:17.563 --> 01:20.980
how many more pilots will
the Indian Air Force send to die.

02:12.938 --> 02:14.771
<i>The India-Pakistan border</i>

02:14.855 --> 02:17.771
<i>has been the epicenter</i>
<i>of war, suspicion and mistrust</i>

02:17.855 --> 02:19.730
<i>for the past 52 years.</i>

02:19.813 --> 02:22.771
<i>And last year, when both countries</i>
<i>conducted nuclear tests within months,</i>

02:22.855 --> 02:26.271
<i>this mistrust reached its limit.</i>

02:26.355 --> 02:28.063
<i>This time in history was labelled</i>

02:28.146 --> 02:30.896
<i>the most dangerous series of events</i>
<i>post-World War II.</i>

02:30.980 --> 02:34.688
<i>But after only seven months,</i>
<i>Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee</i>

02:34.771 --> 02:37.146
<i>on accepting Nawaz Sharif's invitation,</i>

02:37.230 --> 02:39.813
<i>announced a historical</i>
<i>bus service to Lahore.</i>

02:40.313 --> 02:41.730
<i>Now a question arises,</i>

02:41.813 --> 02:43.855
<i>can the defense forces of both countries</i>

02:43.938 --> 02:45.521
<i>accept this gesture of peace?</i>

03:00.646 --> 03:03.313
Gentlemen, peace or no peace,

03:03.396 --> 03:06.355
this year too, the Western Command's
war game exercise

03:06.438 --> 03:07.813
will be conducted as scheduled.

03:07.896 --> 03:12.230
Like every year,
your flying skills, alertness,

03:12.313 --> 03:14.855
innovation and bravery will be tested.

03:14.938 --> 03:18.105
And as usual, all the squadrons
will be split into two teams.

03:18.188 --> 03:20.646
Red Land and Blue Land.

03:20.730 --> 03:23.146
However this year, for the first time,

03:23.230 --> 03:24.521
Team Blue Land

03:24.605 --> 03:27.813
will also have a photo-recce squadron
with them, the Golden Arrows,

03:27.896 --> 03:30.063
led by Wing Commander Tony Dhanoa.

03:30.146 --> 03:33.021
They will recce for Wolfpack,
the bombing squadron,

03:33.105 --> 03:37.355
identify the target for them,
and post-strike also assess the damage.

03:37.438 --> 03:39.105
In the coming month,

03:39.188 --> 03:41.563
there will be five operational rounds.

03:41.646 --> 03:44.521
Then the semi-finals and finals.

03:44.605 --> 03:45.605
Any questions?

03:45.688 --> 03:47.063
No, sir!

03:47.146 --> 03:50.480
Gentlemen, I had asked you
before this exercise started,

03:51.480 --> 03:54.646
how according to you
your squadrons could become war-ready.

03:54.730 --> 03:57.021
And I have received your requirements.

03:57.105 --> 04:00.605
Jammer pods, self-defense systems,

04:00.688 --> 04:03.063
advanced flying simulators,

04:03.146 --> 04:06.730
and someone has put in
a demand for night vision goggles.

04:07.438 --> 04:09.855
But Tony…

04:10.938 --> 04:12.688
you haven't asked for a thing.

04:12.771 --> 04:15.563
Sir, my squadron has
the youngest fighter pilots

04:15.646 --> 04:17.355
from the Western Air Command.

04:18.230 --> 04:19.271
They are Academy trained,

04:19.355 --> 04:22.021
but flying the MiG-21
for the first time operationally.

04:22.813 --> 04:24.146
Sir, both you and I know,

04:24.230 --> 04:28.146
the MiG-21 has the fastest take-off
and landing speeds in the world.

04:28.230 --> 04:29.563
So before being war-ready,

04:29.646 --> 04:31.813
I want all of my boys
to be MiG ready, sir.

04:32.813 --> 04:35.105
And I don't think we need
any equipment to do that.

04:36.146 --> 04:38.063
What we actually need is a good coach.

04:38.980 --> 04:40.605
And who is this coach?

04:42.438 --> 04:44.438
Squadron leader Ajay Ahuja.

04:45.313 --> 04:48.605
<i>I can't think of anyone more capable</i>
<i>for shaping my boys into men.</i>

04:57.730 --> 04:58.980
I'm sorry, Alka.

05:00.313 --> 05:02.313
We have to keep moving all the time
because of me.

05:03.438 --> 05:04.438
Sorry?

05:06.896 --> 05:08.438
But I was just about to say thank you.

05:09.396 --> 05:10.396
For what?

05:10.480 --> 05:12.605
For all the new sarees I have.

05:14.355 --> 05:15.605
At every posting,

05:16.646 --> 05:18.813
all my old sarees become new again.

05:29.438 --> 05:30.480
What's up, champion?

05:31.230 --> 05:32.230
So tell me.

05:32.813 --> 05:33.896
Fourteen times eight?

05:36.521 --> 05:37.355
One, one, two.

05:37.438 --> 05:38.730
Too slow.

05:39.646 --> 05:41.271
Don't you want to be a fighter pilot?

05:41.355 --> 05:44.396
A fighter pilot has to be able to solve
math problems in one second.

05:46.105 --> 05:48.355
Seventeen hundred hours.
You better be ready.

05:48.438 --> 05:50.521
There's an even bigger
swimming pool over here.

05:50.605 --> 05:51.730
Okay, Papa.

05:51.813 --> 05:53.271
- Bye.
- Bye.

05:56.813 --> 05:58.438
You're a a flight commander now.

05:58.980 --> 06:00.938
At least get yourself a new motorbike.

06:05.188 --> 06:06.855
I have 16 MiGs, madam.

06:46.355 --> 06:49.313
If a flight commander rides
an obsolete, ancient scooter,

06:49.396 --> 06:51.521
what impression would he leave
on the boys, huh?

06:52.396 --> 06:54.521
Why does everyone hate my scooter so much?

06:55.313 --> 06:56.480
Also, the way I see it,

06:57.896 --> 07:00.271
our MiGs are a lot older
than my scooter, right?

07:01.396 --> 07:02.396
Right, Tony sir?

07:02.480 --> 07:04.355
There's that twisted logic again.

07:04.438 --> 07:05.730
Come here, bring it in.

07:06.938 --> 07:08.396
Welcome to Golden Arrows.

07:09.563 --> 07:11.105
Good to see you again, Ahuja.

07:11.188 --> 07:12.521
Thank you, sir.

07:15.105 --> 07:16.105
Oh, wow.

07:16.855 --> 07:18.188
Annual War Game exercise, sir.

07:18.271 --> 07:19.813
Semi-finals.

07:19.896 --> 07:22.230
It's time for the boys
to meet their new coach.

07:23.813 --> 07:26.480
As the dedicated photo recce squadron,

07:26.980 --> 07:31.313
our job is to fly low over the target
and take photos of it.

07:31.396 --> 07:33.271
Then these photos are to be enlarged

07:33.355 --> 07:36.688
and the exact strike coordinates are to be
shared with the bombing squadron.

07:36.771 --> 07:40.396
The moment you cross this make-shift LoC,
your timer will start.

07:40.480 --> 07:42.355
Forty-five seconds.

07:42.438 --> 07:44.896
If you don't make it back
within 45 seconds,

07:44.980 --> 07:48.355
Red Land's surface to air missiles
will lock on to you

07:48.438 --> 07:51.480
and for all practical purposes,
you're dead.

07:51.563 --> 07:53.563
Which means we lose points.

07:53.646 --> 07:55.146
And that cannot happen.

07:56.980 --> 07:59.105
- Jai Hind, Sir.
- Jai Hind.

07:59.188 --> 08:00.355
At ease, Arrows.

08:04.730 --> 08:07.355
I want you to meet
your new Flight Commander.

08:08.146 --> 08:10.313
Squadron Leader Ajay Ahuja.

08:10.396 --> 08:12.063
He was supposed to join tomorrow.

08:12.146 --> 08:14.605
But I guess, he was dying to see you guys.

08:14.688 --> 08:15.605
What do you think?

08:15.688 --> 08:17.521
What exactly should our strategy be?

08:17.605 --> 08:19.980
Sir, the enemy will have missiles.

08:20.063 --> 08:22.563
Our missions should be flown
in radio silence.

08:22.646 --> 08:24.355
I'm not talking about that mission.

08:24.438 --> 08:26.105
I'm actually talking about

08:26.813 --> 08:29.396
the India-Pakistan Peace Summit
on February 19th.

08:29.896 --> 08:31.396
For the first time in 52 years,

08:31.480 --> 08:34.646
India's Prime Minister
is going to Pakistan by road.

08:35.480 --> 08:38.563
I'd like to hear what you boys
think about this bus journey.

08:39.105 --> 08:40.646
I think it's a good step, sir.

08:40.730 --> 08:42.813
Both countries have nuclear weapons,

08:42.896 --> 08:44.605
so a permanent solution needs to be found.

08:44.688 --> 08:47.230
Well, sir, a permanent solution
is impossible.

08:47.313 --> 08:49.313
Some tensions could ease, but that's it.

08:49.396 --> 08:50.938
- But how?
- Mistake.

08:53.480 --> 08:54.771
It's a big mistake, sir.

08:54.855 --> 08:57.188
A country like Pakistan
can never be trusted.

08:57.271 --> 08:59.271
Peace between India and Pakistan
is also vital.

08:59.355 --> 09:02.230
Yeah, but the other country's intention
should also be the same, Baldy.

09:02.313 --> 09:03.563
Ahuja, what do you think?

09:04.521 --> 09:06.480
Sir, I don't think about
all these things at all.

09:06.563 --> 09:09.355
Exactly. You shouldn't
think about these things.

09:09.855 --> 09:12.105
Politics has nothing
to do with the Air Force.

09:12.188 --> 09:13.438
We are razor blades.

09:13.521 --> 09:15.605
We are trained to cut with precision

09:15.688 --> 09:17.355
and not think about anything else.

09:17.938 --> 09:19.646
We are 17 points behind.

09:20.230 --> 09:23.021
If we don't score 20 points
in the semi-final,

09:23.105 --> 09:25.021
no matter how many stunts we pull off,

09:25.605 --> 09:26.896
the victory will go to Red Land.

09:30.688 --> 09:31.855
Chou…

09:31.938 --> 09:33.021
boys for the mission?

09:33.605 --> 09:35.563
Dhali and Goofy.

09:35.646 --> 09:39.771
Boys, this is the closest you'll ever get
to experiencing war.

09:41.813 --> 09:43.396
It's a war you've never lost, sir.

09:43.480 --> 09:45.438
And I'm not losing it this time either.

09:47.938 --> 09:49.480
Go get me those points.

09:49.563 --> 09:50.813
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.

10:25.730 --> 10:27.313
Pakistan <i>Zindabad, </i>sir.

10:27.396 --> 10:28.396
<i>Zindabad.</i>

10:33.896 --> 10:35.480
What brings you here?

10:35.563 --> 10:37.021
The World Cup's around the corner,

10:37.105 --> 10:39.521
so I thought I'd come
and encourage the players.

10:40.771 --> 10:43.355
In fact, the players are not
very different from soldiers.

10:44.021 --> 10:46.021
We're always preparing for the next war.

10:46.105 --> 10:47.105
Very true, sir.

10:49.021 --> 10:50.938
Junaid was just six years old

10:51.021 --> 10:52.980
when he wanted to become a fast bowler.

10:54.688 --> 10:56.771
It's amazing you still remember that.

10:58.563 --> 10:59.563
Of course, Tauqir.

11:01.938 --> 11:05.396
<i>Inshallah</i>, very soon he'll play
for the Pakistan cricket team.

11:05.896 --> 11:10.688
Not while Younis, Akhtar, Akram
are all still in the team.

11:10.771 --> 11:11.771
Looks difficult.

11:14.355 --> 11:15.855
Listen, Tauqir,

11:15.938 --> 11:18.521
when his own father is about to become

11:18.605 --> 11:20.396
the chairman of
the Pakistan Cricket Board,

11:20.480 --> 11:23.105
- why would it be difficult?
- Sir?

11:23.188 --> 11:25.313
The PCB will get a new chair in December.

11:25.396 --> 11:28.105
Who better to lead this post for us

11:28.188 --> 11:30.771
than the star sportsman
of the Pakistan Army?

11:34.855 --> 11:37.938
The Pakistan team
is a really big responsibility.

11:43.813 --> 11:45.605
Are you afraid of responsibility?

11:46.813 --> 11:47.938
No, sir.

11:49.730 --> 11:52.063
Can you get Pakistan
another World Cup victory?

11:54.980 --> 11:56.188
I will do my best.

12:02.480 --> 12:06.563
Then I'm sure Tauqir, you can get
Kashmir for Pakistan as well.

12:11.146 --> 12:12.146
Kashmir, sir?

12:13.396 --> 12:15.855
Every year,
both countries withdraw their armies

12:15.938 --> 12:18.396
from the snow covered mountains
of Kashmir.

12:18.480 --> 12:20.063
As per the Shimla Agreement.

12:20.813 --> 12:25.521
And your office as DGMO
is the one to give these orders, right?

12:26.938 --> 12:27.938
Right, sir.

12:28.438 --> 12:31.480
But this time, our soldiers
will stay where they are.

12:34.313 --> 12:36.313
But it'll be a violation
of the Shimla Agreement.

12:36.396 --> 12:38.938
This is also a direct violation
of the LoC,

12:39.021 --> 12:41.896
because this time
our soldiers will move forward

12:41.980 --> 12:43.313
across the Line Of Control

12:43.396 --> 12:46.355
to capture all the posts
which will be vacated by the Indian Army

12:46.438 --> 12:48.396
as they honor the Shimla Agreement.

12:48.480 --> 12:52.438
Especially those posts from
where India's National Highway One

12:52.521 --> 12:55.438
will be in direct line of sight for us.

12:57.355 --> 13:01.480
But sir, PM Nawaz Sharif is about to hold
peace talks with India.

13:02.146 --> 13:03.146
So?

13:04.521 --> 13:05.396
Pardon me, sir.

13:06.646 --> 13:09.063
Is the Prime Minister aware
of this operation?

13:13.105 --> 13:15.771
This is an army operation, General Zia.

13:17.521 --> 13:19.730
Why do we need
to involve the Prime Minister?

13:26.646 --> 13:28.938
Are the posters for the peace talks ready?

13:29.021 --> 13:30.146
Sir, the layout is ready.

13:30.230 --> 13:33.063
Is the meeting with Faiz's daughter fixed?

13:33.146 --> 13:34.521
No, sir, actually--

13:34.605 --> 13:37.646
Mr. Vajpayee is a huge fan
of Faiz's poetry.

13:38.813 --> 13:40.521
Do this on a priority, please.

13:40.605 --> 13:41.646
Sure, sir.

13:42.730 --> 13:44.480
Sir, your father is asking for you.

13:44.563 --> 13:46.855
The cabinet has been waiting for a while.

13:46.938 --> 13:47.896
Hmm.

13:47.980 --> 13:52.188
- Should we get the chopper ready?
- There are so many mistakes.

13:52.271 --> 13:53.521
Mr. Aqil,

13:54.480 --> 13:57.355
Mr. Vajpayee will be
the first Indian Prime Minister

13:57.438 --> 13:59.896
of India to set foot on Minar-e-Pakistan.

13:59.980 --> 14:01.771
Understand the significance
of these talks.

14:01.855 --> 14:04.063
- You go ahead. Please have a seat.
- Yes, sir.

14:07.480 --> 14:09.813
Tell me, what's the agenda
for today's meeting?

14:10.563 --> 14:12.438
- Just the peace talks, sir.
- Okay.

14:13.521 --> 14:15.605
Our suggestion is that during these talks

14:15.688 --> 14:20.396
we, uh, propose the Chenab River
as the new Line of Control, sir.

14:21.938 --> 14:23.688
Look, uh…

14:23.771 --> 14:25.605
This will be the LoC…

14:26.355 --> 14:28.438
which will be visible even from the moon.

14:41.438 --> 14:43.563
Haven't we discussed this before?

14:45.771 --> 14:50.855
This 80-20 division in favor of Pakistan
will never be accepted by India.

14:50.938 --> 14:53.355
Sir, the Chenab River divides

14:53.438 --> 14:56.188
the Hindu-Muslim population
of Kashmir evenly.

14:56.271 --> 14:58.105
This is a great resolution
for the conflict.

14:58.188 --> 14:59.188
Mr. Aziz…

15:00.313 --> 15:03.271
I'm the one who's been speaking
to Mr. Vajpayee every day.

15:03.896 --> 15:05.230
He'll never agree to this.

15:05.313 --> 15:06.563
Nawaz…

15:08.355 --> 15:11.730
you are free to continue your
friendly conversations with him.

15:12.355 --> 15:14.688
But for the actual negotiations

15:14.771 --> 15:16.563
follow Mr. Aziz's lead.

15:19.730 --> 15:22.896
He is far more experienced
in diplomatic talks

15:22.980 --> 15:25.021
than all of us put together.

15:27.521 --> 15:28.521
Yes, Father.

15:31.480 --> 15:34.146
May we proceed with the Indian draft, sir?

15:34.980 --> 15:37.438
What's your opinion on this, Mr. Aziz?

15:43.063 --> 15:45.813
Sir, the Chief has assigned
all the important army positions

15:45.896 --> 15:46.980
to his own men.

15:47.521 --> 15:48.813
So?

15:48.896 --> 15:51.855
So, sir, our political history
clearly shows that

15:51.938 --> 15:54.146
whenever the army
has expanded its influence,

15:54.230 --> 15:55.271
it hasn't really under--

15:55.355 --> 15:58.688
Mr. Butt, we bypassed three of his seniors
and appointed him as the Army Chief.

16:00.063 --> 16:03.646
If he wants to enjoy the power of being
an Army Chief for now, let him.

16:03.730 --> 16:04.771
What does it matter?

16:04.855 --> 16:06.855
Sir, it is a matter of border positions.

16:06.938 --> 16:09.271
If the Chief tries to be
adventurous in the valley,

16:09.355 --> 16:12.230
the ISI's long-term Kashmir plan
may be at risk.

16:12.313 --> 16:14.438
Also, it's only my duty to warn you, sir.

16:14.521 --> 16:15.646
Absolutely.

16:16.730 --> 16:19.271
And my job
is to understand the difference.

16:19.355 --> 16:22.896
You just focus on ISI operations,
and not on General Musharraf.

16:26.480 --> 16:29.855
The new Flight Commander
doesn't seem like a commander at all.

16:29.938 --> 16:32.646
You don't gauge an engine's power
from the jet's body, Goofy.

16:33.480 --> 16:35.313
Does the mission seem right to you?

16:37.355 --> 16:39.855
Bad weather above
and anti-aircraft guns below.

16:39.938 --> 16:41.146
Danger everywhere.

16:41.230 --> 16:42.646
Of course, it seems right.

16:42.730 --> 16:43.938
Perfect

16:44.021 --> 16:45.480
Happy landings, Goofy.

16:49.480 --> 16:53.396
<i>Trident taxy via link</i>
<i>Alpha Runway 27-QNH-1002</i>

16:54.271 --> 16:56.980
<i>Link Alpha, Runway 271002.</i>

16:57.063 --> 16:58.938
<i>Copied. Trident in sequence.</i>

17:01.730 --> 17:03.563
Trident sequence monitored.

17:12.855 --> 17:13.771
- Sir.
- Hmm?

17:15.230 --> 17:18.313
<i>Vanguard Control,</i>
<i>Trident formation ready to take off.</i>

17:36.438 --> 17:38.355
Were these rolls part of the briefing?

17:38.438 --> 17:40.271
Sir, that's Flying Officer Dhaliwal.

17:41.396 --> 17:42.563
Very talented.

17:43.813 --> 17:45.355
And a bit of show-off as well.

17:49.605 --> 17:50.605
Whoo!

17:59.688 --> 18:01.021
Can we go to the Ops room?

18:02.313 --> 18:03.313
Sure, sir.

18:19.688 --> 18:21.896
Sir, will you be attending
the debrief today?

18:22.521 --> 18:23.646
On my first day?

18:24.688 --> 18:26.605
I think today I'll just observe.

18:26.688 --> 18:27.855
- Hmm.
- Right-o, sir.

18:28.813 --> 18:30.688
Sir, message from met department.

18:30.771 --> 18:32.646
Heavy cloud patch in Trident's route.

18:32.730 --> 18:34.396
- Sir?
- Safety first always.

18:34.938 --> 18:36.396
Break RT silence. Alert them.

18:37.355 --> 18:39.105
Trident Vanguard control…

18:39.688 --> 18:43.771
<i>exercise caution for large cloud build up.</i>
<i>There's a heavy patch coming your way--</i>

18:43.855 --> 18:46.938
RT silence scan.
Whatever it is, I'll handle it.

18:50.230 --> 18:51.730
Trident two, Vanguard control.

18:51.813 --> 18:56.146
Exercise caution for large cloud build up
in sector, 040, 30 kilometers.

18:56.230 --> 18:57.480
Roger copy, Trident two.

19:09.063 --> 19:11.730
With an RT silence,
you really wanna gossip on Channel 2?

19:11.813 --> 19:14.438
Dhali, what are you doing, man?
It's a cloud alert.

19:14.521 --> 19:16.646
We are still in the air, aren't we, Goofy?

19:16.730 --> 19:17.813
Just follow my lead.

19:17.896 --> 19:19.563
This is a semi-final mission.

19:19.646 --> 19:21.605
No matter what, we complete it on time.

19:27.646 --> 19:29.313
Vanguard control Trident two.

19:29.396 --> 19:31.980
The leader isn't responding.
Going ahead as planned.

20:11.563 --> 20:14.063
Trident formation, lost joy on you.

20:25.063 --> 20:27.271
Trident formation, confirm monitored.

20:58.230 --> 21:00.063
Oh, shit!

21:02.730 --> 21:03.730
Dhali!

21:06.730 --> 21:08.355
Whoo!

21:21.188 --> 21:22.855
Trident formation, confirm ops normal.

21:22.938 --> 21:25.313
<i>Trident formation, confirm ops normal.</i>

21:25.396 --> 21:27.105
Affirmative, heading to the party.

21:29.063 --> 21:31.605
Close shave, boys,
but the mission is just starting,

21:31.688 --> 21:33.521
and you have only 45 seconds.

21:33.605 --> 21:35.063
<i>Go get those points.</i>

22:11.896 --> 22:14.021
Trident formation is approaching target.

22:19.313 --> 22:21.230
<i>Mission completed. Heading back to base.</i>

22:22.396 --> 22:24.730
Sir, Trident formation
is heading back to base.

22:27.021 --> 22:28.396
I've changed my mind, Chou.

22:29.105 --> 22:30.105
I…

22:30.813 --> 22:32.688
would like to attend the debriefing.

22:42.938 --> 22:45.188
- Sergeant, take the cam to the PIC room.
- Sir.

22:48.063 --> 22:49.730
Are you okay?

22:53.730 --> 22:55.230
Wasn't it a bit much?

22:57.063 --> 22:58.521
But you felt the rush, right?

23:08.521 --> 23:09.646
Goofy, why did you…

23:10.771 --> 23:12.646
follow the mission instead of aborting it?

23:12.730 --> 23:16.563
Sir, the leader had asked me to follow,
so aborting the mission was not an option.

23:17.188 --> 23:18.355
Textbook wingman call.

23:20.313 --> 23:21.355
Well done.

23:22.313 --> 23:23.355
And you?

23:23.438 --> 23:24.688
The ground orders were clear,

23:24.771 --> 23:26.105
so why did you…

23:27.021 --> 23:28.771
take the risk of flying into the cloud?

23:29.521 --> 23:31.230
For the 20 points of the mission, sir.

23:31.313 --> 23:35.063
There was a high risk of both pilots
colliding in cloud flying.

23:35.146 --> 23:36.313
Did you factor that in?

23:36.396 --> 23:38.105
Sir, we've been flying together
for a year.

23:38.188 --> 23:39.771
We completely trust each other.

23:41.146 --> 23:42.146
And suppose…

23:44.438 --> 23:47.730
you got completely disoriented
while flying through the cloud?

23:48.438 --> 23:50.105
We can easily reorient, sir.

23:51.188 --> 23:53.688
We're the only squadron that
has a Global Positioning System.

23:57.813 --> 23:58.813
Grounded.

24:01.188 --> 24:02.188
For one week.

24:02.896 --> 24:03.855
No sorties.

24:05.188 --> 24:06.230
I'm sorry, sir?

24:06.313 --> 24:09.063
You're restricted
to only ground duties for a week.

24:09.146 --> 24:10.730
Bird clearance, paperwork,

24:10.813 --> 24:13.688
and you'll interpret sortie photos
taken by other pilots as well.

24:13.771 --> 24:16.146
Pardon me sir, but why?

24:16.230 --> 24:19.313
Completing the mission was important,
and I just took a calculated risk.

24:19.855 --> 24:22.105
Sir, if we didn't do this, we…
we would've lost,

24:22.188 --> 24:24.105
and everyone would've
blamed the Golden Arrows.

24:24.188 --> 24:25.688
It's as simple as that, sir.

24:25.771 --> 24:27.188
And there was no other way.

24:27.271 --> 24:28.688
Does everyone feel the same?

24:30.271 --> 24:31.271
That…

24:32.063 --> 24:33.688
that there was no other way to do this?

24:33.771 --> 24:34.896
There was, sir,

24:35.396 --> 24:36.396
another way.

24:36.480 --> 24:38.355
Go on, Baldy. Explain.

24:38.438 --> 24:39.896
Sir, the dog-leg maneuver.

24:40.730 --> 24:42.646
They could have gone around the cloud.

24:45.605 --> 24:48.480
And what about the time
it would've taken to re-route?

24:48.563 --> 24:50.480
It would've taken two minutes at most.

24:50.563 --> 24:52.521
The length of the cloud
was ten kilometers,

24:52.605 --> 24:55.230
and detouring around the cloud
would mean another 20 kilometers.

24:55.771 --> 24:58.521
What about the extra fuel
it would take to go around it?

25:00.146 --> 25:02.688
Sir, at a speed of 800,

25:02.771 --> 25:04.355
whatever fuel would have been required

25:04.438 --> 25:05.855
for the ten-kilometer difference…

25:06.396 --> 25:10.813
I guess more fuel than that would probably
be spent to manage the cloud's turbulence.

25:12.146 --> 25:15.438
So I think dog-leg was a safer
and more efficient option.

25:16.730 --> 25:18.355
Clearly, whatever is safe for me

25:18.438 --> 25:20.813
is probably dangerous
for our dear professor.

25:20.896 --> 25:23.396
And it's fine. Every pilot has their
own risk-taking capacity--

25:23.480 --> 25:24.855
So you're saying you agree?

25:26.271 --> 25:27.730
that there was another way.

25:27.813 --> 25:30.230
Sir, at that time
I was the one in the air.

25:30.313 --> 25:32.188
You weren't there and neither was he.

25:33.313 --> 25:35.855
And if this had been an actual war,
would we have gone around--

25:35.938 --> 25:37.980
Grounded for two weeks, Dhaliwal.

25:39.230 --> 25:41.521
Let's save risks for a real war.

25:41.605 --> 25:43.313
We are not at war right now.

26:19.896 --> 26:21.521
<i>Assalam alaikum, </i>Chief,

26:21.605 --> 26:23.896
I have an urgent update for you.

26:23.980 --> 26:25.271
Lieutenant General Aziz

26:25.355 --> 26:28.313
and Lieutenant General Mahmood
are both on the line.

26:28.396 --> 26:29.730
<i>Tell me.</i>

26:30.521 --> 26:31.896
Sir, according to our plan,

26:32.438 --> 26:34.980
<i>soldiers from our</i>
<i>12th NLI have already captured</i>

26:35.063 --> 26:37.021
<i>eight vacant Indian posts.</i>

26:37.105 --> 26:39.105
<i>But as soon as they moved forward,</i>

26:39.188 --> 26:41.355
<i>they encountered many hidden posts</i>

26:41.438 --> 26:42.688
<i>which we were unaware of.</i>

26:46.438 --> 26:49.271
<i>Clearly India has been</i>
<i>guarding NH1 like it's a fortress.</i>

26:49.355 --> 26:51.646
<i>And now, when India is honoring</i>
<i>the Shimla Agreement</i>

26:51.730 --> 26:53.605
<i>and has vacated all the posts,</i>

26:53.688 --> 26:55.355
<i>we should take advantage of this, sir.</i>

26:55.896 --> 26:57.771
I think we should take them all, sir.

26:57.855 --> 27:00.521
Hasan, to hold posts in such a large area,

27:00.605 --> 27:03.563
we will have to cancel the winter leave
of 3,000 to 4,000 soldiers.

27:03.646 --> 27:06.021
<i>We are already breaching</i>
<i>the Shimla Agreement</i>

27:06.105 --> 27:07.938
<i>by crossing the LoC during winter.</i>

27:08.021 --> 27:11.563
<i>Taking these posts would be</i>
<i>an invasion of 200 square kilometers.</i>

27:11.646 --> 27:14.521
General Mahmood, tell me one thing.

27:14.605 --> 27:16.896
Do you set out to capture Kashmir
every day?

27:18.938 --> 27:19.938
No, sir.

27:21.771 --> 27:24.730
Then you will never get an opportunity
better than this one.

27:26.063 --> 27:27.063
<i>General Hassan?</i>

27:27.146 --> 27:28.271
Yes, sir.

27:28.355 --> 27:30.605
Capture all those posts right away.

27:31.313 --> 27:34.396
<i>They will never expect us to be able</i>
<i>to pull off something like this.</i>

27:35.146 --> 27:38.063
<i>Our audacity will become</i>
<i>our strength in this operation.</i>

27:38.730 --> 27:40.730
<i>Draft a list of the supplies.</i>

27:40.813 --> 27:42.646
<i>I'm sending Tauqir Zia to you.</i>

27:43.605 --> 27:45.146
Pakistan <i>Zindabad.</i>

27:45.230 --> 27:47.646
- <i>Pakistan </i>Zindabad, <i>sir.</i>
- <i>Pakistan </i>Zindabad, <i>sir.</i>

28:07.105 --> 28:08.105
- Dhali.
- Hmmm

28:08.188 --> 28:09.188
I have good news.

28:09.271 --> 28:12.105
The bombing squadron has destroyed
Red Land's comms base.

28:12.188 --> 28:13.730
and we've won the semi-finals.

28:14.563 --> 28:16.230
- I'm aware.
- Yeah, that's obvious.

28:17.313 --> 28:19.021
But I've received my next posting.

28:20.313 --> 28:21.521
Mirage Squadron.

28:22.605 --> 28:23.605
Mir…

28:25.688 --> 28:27.980
From a family car straight to a Ferrari.

28:30.396 --> 28:31.646
Whoa!

28:32.355 --> 28:33.855
Congratulations, Sangy.

28:35.146 --> 28:37.396
Well hopefully, you won't have to deal

28:37.480 --> 28:40.771
with a Flight Commander there who would
ground you just for taking risks.

28:41.813 --> 28:43.355
Forget about him, Dhali.

28:43.438 --> 28:45.396
You've won us the semi-finals, man.

28:45.480 --> 28:47.271
Let's go celebrate that.

28:47.355 --> 28:49.146
Come on, drinks on me tonight.

28:49.230 --> 28:51.438
No, you guys enjoy.
I'm not in the mood, thank you.

28:53.188 --> 28:54.188
It is unfair.

28:55.105 --> 28:56.646
Should we go talk to him together?

28:56.730 --> 28:59.480
- Let's see what Ahuja Sir says.
- Yeah, let's see.

28:59.563 --> 29:00.605
He's the Flight Commander.

29:00.688 --> 29:03.480
What's the point of talking to him?
He can do whatever he feels like.

29:03.563 --> 29:06.396
He may be the Flight Commander,
but we're also Bachelors.

29:07.563 --> 29:08.896
We can't argue with him…

29:09.563 --> 29:10.813
but we can mess with him.

29:18.188 --> 29:19.230
Let's go.

29:19.771 --> 29:21.563
Uh, where is Mr. Professor?

29:21.646 --> 29:23.563
Probably where he goes every evening.

29:23.646 --> 29:25.146
Let's go, then.

29:25.230 --> 29:27.563
<i>Bala, do you love me or not?</i>

29:28.355 --> 29:30.480
What a weird question. Of course I do.

29:31.146 --> 29:32.480
<i>So will you elope with me?</i>

29:37.355 --> 29:40.021
Madhavi, I'm not even
a Flight Lieutenant yet.

29:40.563 --> 29:42.146
I'm still in training over here and…

29:42.688 --> 29:45.230
And I really don't think
this is the right time.

29:45.313 --> 29:48.230
<i>There's a lot of pressure from my parents.</i>
<i>Please try to understand.</i>

29:53.021 --> 29:54.063
Bouncing?

29:55.105 --> 29:56.021
You guys carry on.

29:56.105 --> 29:57.355
You don't have a choice.

30:01.730 --> 30:04.105
Madhavi, I'll…
I'll call you in an hour, okay?

30:06.105 --> 30:07.146
Hello?

30:11.313 --> 30:12.313
She hung up.

30:39.605 --> 30:41.105
- Good evening, ma'am.
- Hello, ma'am.

30:41.188 --> 30:42.980
Aren't you boys a little late?

30:43.771 --> 30:47.605
Bachelors from the last squadron had come
to bounce on the second day itself.

30:50.021 --> 30:51.355
Your team is here.

30:52.646 --> 30:53.646
Finally.

30:54.855 --> 30:55.855
Welcome home, boys.

30:55.938 --> 30:57.813
Uh, I don't drink.

30:58.355 --> 30:59.355
But I serve.

31:00.105 --> 31:02.605
This bar is all yours. Help yourself.

31:02.688 --> 31:04.021
Dhali, you're on a roll tonight.

31:04.105 --> 31:06.063
I'm on my second. He's on his seventh.

31:06.146 --> 31:07.646
- Seventh drink?
- It's free, isn't it?

31:07.730 --> 31:09.646
He only drinks when he's bouncing.

31:09.730 --> 31:12.355
He'll never pay…
He'll never pay for his own drinks.

31:12.438 --> 31:13.896
- Huh?
- Come on.

31:15.646 --> 31:16.646
Start chopping.

31:20.980 --> 31:22.855
We'll make my special recipe tonight.

31:24.938 --> 31:26.771
You boys want to eat, right?

31:27.521 --> 31:28.855
- Yes.
- So, then get to it.

31:35.271 --> 31:36.271
What are you looking at?

31:36.938 --> 31:38.855
This house belongs to Alka Ma'am.

31:38.938 --> 31:40.063
I only live here.

31:41.396 --> 31:42.938
Come on, come on. Hmm.

31:46.605 --> 31:48.021
I'll chop the carrots, okay.

31:48.605 --> 31:49.605
Potatoes.

31:54.021 --> 31:56.438
It seems like we got screwed
on our own bouncing.

31:57.896 --> 32:01.105
By the way, these two seem to be
more in sync than us.

32:01.646 --> 32:03.355
What are you all whispering about?

32:04.188 --> 32:07.188
If you had to talk amongst yourselves,
then why even bother the bouncing?

32:07.271 --> 32:08.438
Let's all hear it, come on.

32:08.980 --> 32:11.605
Uh, sir, actually, uh, Max was asking

32:11.688 --> 32:13.980
when will the finals of the war game
exercises be held?

32:14.063 --> 32:14.896
Mm-mm.

32:16.188 --> 32:18.230
Bouncing rule number one of this house.

32:19.355 --> 32:21.021
Nobody is allowed to talk about flying.

32:21.105 --> 32:23.605
Oh. We won't talk about flying.

32:23.688 --> 32:25.063
- We won't.
- Sorry.

32:25.146 --> 32:26.396
Thank you, Sangy.

32:26.480 --> 32:28.230
But ma'am, this rule is wrong.

32:28.313 --> 32:31.730
If my house had such a rule,
I would've never become a fighter pilot.

32:32.521 --> 32:33.813
This conversation is allowed.

32:35.355 --> 32:36.896
Rajendra Dhaliwal, Ma'am.

32:36.980 --> 32:39.730
My father, he was also in the Air Force.

32:39.813 --> 32:40.813
Ground Duty Officer.

32:41.355 --> 32:43.480
And my mother used to cook amazing food.

32:44.146 --> 32:47.271
So all fighter pilots used to come
for bouncing at our house.

32:48.063 --> 32:50.188
I used to hear everyone's flying stories,

32:50.271 --> 32:51.688
and I got the bug as well.

32:52.313 --> 32:53.896
So where's your father posted now?

32:53.980 --> 32:55.271
- He retired.
- He retired.

32:58.313 --> 32:59.605
Wing Commander Dhaliwal.

33:01.563 --> 33:02.605
'69 batch.

33:04.146 --> 33:05.230
Disciplined officer.

33:05.730 --> 33:07.230
I'd met him briefly in Tezpur.

33:07.313 --> 33:08.480
Hold on.

33:08.563 --> 33:11.146
Ahuja Sir generally knows
everything about everyone,

33:11.230 --> 33:13.313
but I don't know anything.

33:13.396 --> 33:17.313
So how did the rest of you, uh,
catch this bug of flying?

33:18.563 --> 33:19.396
- Hmm?
- Huh?

33:19.480 --> 33:20.480
Sangy.

33:21.230 --> 33:25.396
Um, Ma'am, for us, the only way
to get out of town was the army.

33:26.438 --> 33:29.480
My father, grandfather,
they were both were in the army.

33:30.355 --> 33:32.855
But neither of them could ever
fight in a war.

33:33.896 --> 33:37.063
So, I am just, uh,
trying to repay that debt to the country.

33:37.730 --> 33:40.105
Ma'am, he, uh, doesn't drink that often,

33:40.188 --> 33:42.021
so he's always stuck between
debt and duty.

33:59.688 --> 34:00.855
Ma'am…

34:00.938 --> 34:03.813
when you said "special", I thought
of something completely different.

34:03.896 --> 34:06.605
I never thought that even pilaf
could be this tasty.

34:06.688 --> 34:07.771
What is in it?

34:08.646 --> 34:10.646
Thank you so much for the dinner, ma'am.

34:10.730 --> 34:11.938
I'll have to take your leave.

34:12.646 --> 34:13.938
I have an urgent call to make.

34:14.021 --> 34:15.813
But who's gonna do the dishes?

34:15.896 --> 34:17.146
You forgot the tradition?

34:18.605 --> 34:21.188
Baldy, why don't you just
make a call from here?

34:21.271 --> 34:22.730
We have long distance calling.

34:22.813 --> 34:24.605
Yeah, go ahead.

34:24.688 --> 34:27.105
Sir, he needs a public booth
for a private call.

34:31.896 --> 34:33.021
You can leave, Baldy.

34:33.646 --> 34:34.813
- Thank you.
- Dhali, you'll do

34:34.896 --> 34:36.313
Baldy's share of the dishes, okay?

34:36.396 --> 34:37.563
Yeah. Sure, Ma'am.

34:38.271 --> 34:40.021
But who is she, Professor?

34:40.730 --> 34:42.521
You're ditching
the whole squadron for her.

34:42.605 --> 34:44.188
No one, Dhali, it's…

34:44.271 --> 34:47.063
It's just an urgent family call.
See you all tomorrow.

34:47.146 --> 34:48.730
Thank you, sir. Thank you, ma'am.

34:48.813 --> 34:52.021
But, what is this family emergency
that just came up?

34:52.105 --> 34:53.230
Dhali, wallet.

34:53.313 --> 34:55.105
- I'll get you the contact.
- Dhali.

34:55.188 --> 34:57.438
You must have a picture
of whoever you're calling.

34:57.521 --> 34:59.188
- I'm just checking.
- Dhali, please.

34:59.271 --> 35:01.896
- Wait a minute, I just saw something.
- Dhali, enough!

35:14.521 --> 35:15.813
I'll get the first aid for you.

35:15.896 --> 35:18.646
- No, no, ma'am. I'm completely fine.
- No, no, you're not.

35:18.730 --> 35:20.438
- I'll get it.
- I am absolutely fine, ma'am.

35:29.980 --> 35:30.980
Sir.

35:56.480 --> 35:59.688
Sir, I can say with absolute certainty
that this man is planning something.

35:59.771 --> 36:00.980
He's up to no good.

36:01.563 --> 36:03.980
You should not trust him too much, sir.

36:08.980 --> 36:10.105
General.

36:11.771 --> 36:13.605
We were just about to begin. Please.

36:19.438 --> 36:22.021
Prime Minister, you called me urgently.
Is everything okay?

36:23.771 --> 36:25.480
Mr. Butt has some concerns.

36:27.188 --> 36:29.521
I thought we could
discuss them over breakfast?

36:30.896 --> 36:33.146
I've already had breakfast, thank you.

36:33.230 --> 36:34.688
I'll just have some fruit.

36:35.730 --> 36:37.188
So, Mr. Butt.

36:38.021 --> 36:39.605
What concern does the ISI have?

36:40.646 --> 36:42.105
My concern is that

36:42.188 --> 36:46.021
you have cancelled the winter leave
of thousands of Tenth Corps soldiers.

36:46.855 --> 36:48.855
Why are they being sent to Skardu?

36:48.938 --> 36:53.021
So much movement of troops
on the LoC during the peace talks?

36:53.813 --> 36:54.980
It's a little alarming.

37:07.105 --> 37:09.813
Sir, we have information
that some mujahideen

37:09.896 --> 37:12.063
have been planning
to infiltrate the valley.

37:13.063 --> 37:15.355
They want to de-rail the peace talks.

37:17.188 --> 37:20.896
As ISI Chief, you haven't received
any of this intel till now, maybe.

37:22.688 --> 37:24.688
Sir, we've had to cancel
the leave of many people

37:24.771 --> 37:26.563
in order to keep the peace
at the border.

37:26.646 --> 37:29.896
And many of our soldiers
have been posted there.

37:31.146 --> 37:32.980
Which means you're doing all of this

37:34.063 --> 37:35.896
for the security of the peace talks?

37:37.605 --> 37:39.146
Yes, sir. Of course.

37:43.980 --> 37:45.313
Very thoughtful.

37:45.396 --> 37:47.355
Sir, there has been a power struggle

37:47.438 --> 37:50.563
between the army and the government
for many years.

37:50.646 --> 37:52.271
I want to bring about a change.

37:53.146 --> 37:57.480
I would like to show the people
that Rawalpindi and Islamabad

37:57.563 --> 37:59.313
can play on the same ground, sir.

38:00.188 --> 38:01.646
We can both work together.

38:06.730 --> 38:08.855
You see, Mr. Butt? Didn't I tell you?

38:10.480 --> 38:13.230
You don't need to worry
about General Musharraf at all.

38:13.313 --> 38:14.730
He's on our team.

38:33.646 --> 38:34.646
I'm sorry, ma'am.

38:34.730 --> 38:36.105
I've checked a couple of times.

38:36.188 --> 38:38.230
Your name isn't in
the approved visitors list.

38:38.313 --> 38:40.730
Sir, if you could just
let me speak to Bala…

38:40.813 --> 38:42.938
Uh, Flying Officer Bal Reddy once, please.

38:43.021 --> 38:44.313
He'll explain everything to you.

38:44.396 --> 38:46.230
Sorry, ma'am.
There is an exercise underway.

38:46.313 --> 38:47.313
Nothing can be done.

38:48.188 --> 38:50.980
Then let me speak to the CO.
Tony Sir, right?

39:16.521 --> 39:17.521
Sorry, sir.

39:18.438 --> 39:20.521
I… didn't know that…

39:21.688 --> 39:23.021
Madhavi was going to come here.

39:26.688 --> 39:27.688
Chou.

39:28.396 --> 39:30.105
- Sir.
- Is it possible to put her up

39:30.188 --> 39:32.105
in the VIP Guest House?

39:32.938 --> 39:33.938
Fully occupied, sir.

39:38.980 --> 39:39.980
Sir.

39:42.396 --> 39:43.730
She can stay at our place.

39:46.688 --> 39:48.438
Alka and I will be happy to host Madhavi.

39:51.271 --> 39:52.438
Okay, then.

39:52.938 --> 39:54.730
Baldy, you can get back to work.

39:56.021 --> 39:56.980
Yes, sir.

40:08.980 --> 40:10.646
The siren for the War Game finals

40:10.730 --> 40:12.563
can go off at any moment.
We need to be ready.

40:12.646 --> 40:14.938
Our target is going to be
Red Land's key airbase.

40:15.813 --> 40:18.563
But this time, we take photos after,

40:18.646 --> 40:19.730
and not before the bombing,

40:20.271 --> 40:24.188
so that we can find out if every bomb fell
on its target or not.

40:24.730 --> 40:26.105
Battle damage assessment.

40:26.730 --> 40:29.605
It's a lot more dangerous
than photo recon flying.

40:29.688 --> 40:32.688
Because we won't have
the element of surprise with us.

40:32.771 --> 40:34.938
Their radars are going
to be waiting for us.

40:35.021 --> 40:37.146
And not to forget surface-to-air missile.

40:40.813 --> 40:44.896
So this time
we're going to try a new strategy

40:45.521 --> 40:47.938
which will be useful to us
not just in war games,

40:48.021 --> 40:49.771
but in an actual war as well.

40:59.563 --> 41:01.563
If this is the enemy's radar screen…

41:03.938 --> 41:05.855
then how many dots will you see on it?

41:06.730 --> 41:08.938
Uh, sir… six.

41:15.230 --> 41:16.271
Exactly.

41:17.021 --> 41:19.230
Six jets in close formation.

41:19.313 --> 41:23.521
So close that the enemy's radar screen
shows only one big dot on it.

41:24.313 --> 41:28.188
And the enemy should believe
that it's one big transport aircraft.

41:28.271 --> 41:30.938
Until the target,
we'll fly in close formation

41:31.021 --> 41:33.146
and break our formation
at the last minute,

41:33.230 --> 41:34.605
and take photographs.

41:34.688 --> 41:36.730
And after taking the photos,

41:36.813 --> 41:38.521
before their interceptors arrive,

41:38.605 --> 41:40.771
we would have already crossed the mock LoC

41:41.313 --> 41:43.271
into friendly skies.

41:43.355 --> 41:44.438
Clear?

41:47.938 --> 41:50.063
What's wrong, boys? Too risky?

41:52.105 --> 41:53.146
Dhali?

41:53.688 --> 41:55.021
I was planning to reinstate you.

41:57.980 --> 41:59.396
Well, if you can't do this, then--

41:59.480 --> 42:01.146
No, we… we can do it, sir.

42:01.230 --> 42:02.480
We… we'll do it.

42:03.105 --> 42:04.105
Come again?

42:04.188 --> 42:05.646
We'll do it, sir.

42:07.396 --> 42:08.396
Good.

42:10.813 --> 42:12.855
And Dhali, this time
you won't be flying with Goofy.

42:15.438 --> 42:17.063
I've already shuffled your wingmen.

42:17.146 --> 42:18.855
Go check the flying program board.

42:42.646 --> 42:43.980
Baldy, call in position.

42:44.063 --> 42:45.730
I'm at 700. Match my speed.

42:50.688 --> 42:51.688
<i>In position.</i>

42:52.480 --> 42:54.021
Now maintain position, Baldy.

43:05.188 --> 43:07.313
<i>Sangy joining up. Goofy, call in position.</i>

43:08.355 --> 43:09.646
<i>Goofy joining up.</i>

43:11.313 --> 43:12.480
<i>Teekay joining up.</i>

43:12.563 --> 43:13.938
<i>Max joining up.</i>

43:14.563 --> 43:17.480
<i>Tridents,</i>
<i>the diamond formation is complete.</i>

43:17.563 --> 43:18.855
<i>Let's maintain speed.</i>

43:18.938 --> 43:20.313
<i>Let's not mess it up, guys.</i>

43:24.230 --> 43:26.646
Baldy, too close, too close.
You're falling behind.

43:26.730 --> 43:28.355
Sorry, Sangy, maintaining.

43:28.438 --> 43:30.646
<i>Baldy, it's not</i>
<i>a school bus, man, maintain 700.</i>

43:30.730 --> 43:32.896
Dhali, should we reduce speed
and match up to Baldy?

43:32.980 --> 43:35.313
Negative. The mission has
to be carried out at 700.

43:35.396 --> 43:38.730
- <i>Baldy, increase your speed.</i>
- Roger, increasing.

43:46.521 --> 43:47.855
<i>Formation stable at 700.</i>

43:48.771 --> 43:49.938
Ready to turn left.

43:50.521 --> 43:51.521
Baldy, be on guard.

43:53.688 --> 43:55.938
<i>Tridents, turn left 053.</i>

44:01.396 --> 44:05.355
<i>Formation stable at turn,</i>
<i>accelerate to 750 now!</i>

44:05.438 --> 44:07.230
<i>Baldy, what the hell are you doing?</i>

44:07.313 --> 44:09.063
<i>You're lagging again.</i>

44:09.813 --> 44:12.355
Baldy, you're not even close
to MAC 1. Maintain 750.

44:12.855 --> 44:14.438
I'm… I'm trying.

44:14.521 --> 44:17.146
Why aren't you listening?
Let's maintain speed with Baldy.

44:17.230 --> 44:19.105
Negative, let's stick to 750.

44:19.188 --> 44:21.063
Everyone, 750 now.

44:21.980 --> 44:24.063
Baldy, what's wrong with you?
We'll collide.

44:24.146 --> 44:25.438
Teekay, peel off! Now!

44:25.521 --> 44:26.605
Teekay peeling off

44:26.688 --> 44:29.146
Arrows, peel off! Abort! Abort! Abort!

44:36.271 --> 44:37.438
Come on, guys.

44:56.646 --> 44:57.938
Sit, sit, sit, please.

44:59.980 --> 45:02.646
What happened? What the hell
are you all so sad about?

45:03.813 --> 45:05.146
It was just practice.

45:05.230 --> 45:07.480
It wasn't some
war exercise mission, right?

45:08.480 --> 45:10.230
Another round for everyone, please.

45:11.438 --> 45:12.438
Sangy?

45:13.646 --> 45:16.396
We usually celebrate life
after close calls, don't we?

45:16.480 --> 45:19.855
We do, sir, but today's call
was a bit too close.

45:21.688 --> 45:23.188
We almost collided.

45:23.896 --> 45:24.938
Mm-hmm?

45:25.855 --> 45:28.980
Sir, maybe because we were flying
in formation of six for the first time

45:29.063 --> 45:31.230
which is why staying in sync
with each other

45:32.105 --> 45:33.271
was a little difficult.

45:33.355 --> 45:34.980
No sir, it was my fault.

45:37.230 --> 45:39.771
Sir, it was my fault. I…

45:41.313 --> 45:42.605
I was struggling to…

45:43.230 --> 45:44.688
match Dhali's speed up there.

45:47.105 --> 45:50.021
Sir, the problem was
in the exercise selection.

45:51.563 --> 45:52.646
Okay.

45:54.146 --> 45:57.355
Sir, Ahuja Sir makes us do
extremely risky exercises.

45:57.438 --> 45:59.605
Which is fine with me.
I'm… I'm up for it.

46:00.605 --> 46:03.646
But suddenly changing
my wingman, sir, that's…

46:05.271 --> 46:06.896
How do we achieve perfection?

46:10.396 --> 46:11.563
"Suddenly"?

46:16.813 --> 46:20.313
When a random technical glitch happens
in the air, it happens suddenly.

46:21.521 --> 46:24.105
And when it comes to deciding to eject,

46:24.188 --> 46:27.396
no one leaves home thinking
they'll have to eject that day.

46:29.271 --> 46:30.480
It all happens suddenly.

46:31.396 --> 46:35.688
I haven't called Ahuja here to conduct
routine exercises with all of you.

46:37.188 --> 46:40.605
I've invited him here
so he can make you all war ready.

46:42.980 --> 46:44.646
Because when a war breaks out…

46:46.521 --> 46:48.063
it happens suddenly.

46:49.521 --> 46:52.021
If you really consider
yourselves fighter pilots…

46:54.646 --> 46:57.480
then you must have the courage
to accept every challenge.

46:58.146 --> 46:59.688
Don't complain about it.

47:01.480 --> 47:03.771
We're meant to be razor blades, right?

47:03.855 --> 47:05.105
Yes, sir.

47:07.313 --> 47:09.188
Then bloody behave like one.

47:56.313 --> 47:57.688
Pakistan <i>Zindabad.</i>

47:57.771 --> 47:58.896
Pakistan <i>Zindabad.</i>

47:58.980 --> 48:00.271
Welcome to Skardu, sir.

48:01.980 --> 48:03.021
Hassan.

48:03.938 --> 48:07.480
What the hell are these mujahideen
doing at the army base?

48:09.313 --> 48:10.396
This way, sir.

48:11.438 --> 48:13.063
I'll explain it to you.

48:30.605 --> 48:34.521
So the Pakistan Army is going to work
with the mujahideen now?

48:36.813 --> 48:38.563
Do you really think
they are the mujahideen?

48:41.688 --> 48:43.521
Then the Indians
will also think believe it.

48:44.855 --> 48:46.813
They will also believe
that the Pakistan Army

48:46.896 --> 48:49.105
has nothing to do with this infiltration.

48:49.688 --> 48:52.605
Because we will only
talk to them in Pashto.

48:53.480 --> 48:55.938
But the truth is
that they are not mujahideen.

48:56.896 --> 48:59.146
These are 2,000 soldiers
from our 12th NLI.

48:59.230 --> 49:01.771
- <i>Nara-e-Takbeer!</i>
- <i>Allahu Akbar!</i>

49:01.855 --> 49:03.896
- <i>Nara-e-Takbeer!</i>
- <i>Allahu Akbar!</i>

49:03.980 --> 49:06.230
- <i>Nara-e-Takbeer!</i>
- <i>Allahu Akbar!</i>

49:06.313 --> 49:08.521
- <i>Nara-e-Takbeer!</i>
- <i>Allahu Akbar!</i>

49:08.605 --> 49:10.688
- <i>Nara-e-Takbeer!</i>
- <i>Allahu Akbar!</i>

49:17.146 --> 49:18.146
Sir.

49:19.063 --> 49:21.771
You had mentioned eight posts
and 100 soldiers.

49:21.855 --> 49:24.271
But the kind of preparations
being carried out in Skardu

49:24.355 --> 49:26.021
is nothing less than a war, sir.

49:29.063 --> 49:30.771
General Zia, you look quite fresh today.

49:30.855 --> 49:33.855
It's like the crisp mountain air
suits you.

49:41.313 --> 49:45.105
General Zia, the more posts
that we end up capturing,

49:45.688 --> 49:47.688
the more pressure we can put on India.

49:47.771 --> 49:50.271
Sir, no doubt,
we can hold off the Indian Army

49:50.355 --> 49:51.396
with the height advantage.

49:51.480 --> 49:54.396
But what if they end up getting
their air force involved?

49:59.063 --> 50:01.688
We have asked
the German and Russian air forces

50:01.771 --> 50:03.271
and double checked this.

50:03.355 --> 50:05.646
It's impossible for any air force,

50:05.730 --> 50:08.105
to operate in that terrain
and at those heights.

50:08.980 --> 50:10.313
And this is a proven fact.

50:10.396 --> 50:14.521
Sir, I still feel the least we can do
for our soldiers on those peaks

50:14.605 --> 50:16.063
is arm them with Stinger missiles.

50:16.980 --> 50:18.230
The mujahideen.

50:18.938 --> 50:21.230
They are not our soldiers.
They are the mujahideen.

50:21.313 --> 50:22.313
You understand?

50:24.938 --> 50:28.230
You are the DGMO, right?
So give them the Stinger missiles.

50:28.896 --> 50:29.896
What's wrong?

50:30.480 --> 50:32.938
But sir, Stinger missiles
are not regular weapons.

50:33.021 --> 50:36.480
We will surely need
the PM's approval for mass mobilization.

50:51.730 --> 50:53.771
You don't have to worry so much, Tauqir.

50:57.146 --> 50:59.980
If Pakistan wants to get Kashmir
from India,

51:01.605 --> 51:04.396
then we will have to put in
some more effort.

51:05.855 --> 51:07.021
When the time is right,

51:07.105 --> 51:11.271
I'll go to the PM myself
and get all the necessary approvals.

51:15.188 --> 51:16.771
We must snatch Kashmir.
