(heroic musical intro)
(suspenseful music)
- Is the water pressure good? - (man) Yes, it is.
(Noor gasps)
Mr. Noor, ready?
(gun cocks)
(gunshots going off)
(tense music)
(dramatic music)
(camera clicking)
(intense music)
Please show me your ID.
Forget the ID, sir. It is getting late.
Filling the tanker took too long.
This tanker should have been inside before the General's arrival.
The General arrived long ago.
Then open the gate. Without water, the work will stop.
Wait, I'll be right back.
Sir, will he recognise us?
They must know which driver has taken the tanker.
Mr. Noor, I already told you.
The guards' shift has changed.
They don't recognise the driver's face.
So, when we reach the gate with the tanker at 9:15,
the new officer will not have a problem with our faces,
but with our late arrival.
(guard) My shift has ended anyway.
- Where are you, Afzal? - Yes?
I'm leaving.
Sir, the water tanker has arrived late.
- Look into it. - Yes, I will. You leave.
Okay, sir.
Open it.
Come on, sir.
Hurry up. They have opened the gate.
(engine starts)
(tense music)
Mr. Noor... get ready.
(beeping)
(engine turns off)
Did you have to be late today?
The test has begun.
- Climb up and open the hatch. - Sure.
Attach the pipe.
Attach the pipe!
(tense music)
(Dr. Kalam) This acidic green water will go into the cooling pool
and contaminate the fissile uranium inside,
making it chemically and turbo-dynamically useless.
Not only the raw material,
but the pipeline, centrifuge and reactor will also get corrupted.
Take the pipe up quickly. What are you doing?
He's strange.
(dramatic music)
Well done, Ayub.
(water splashing)
(Dr. Kalam) Adhir, our chemically-treated water
will enter their nuclear cooling pod from the cooling unit,
and an explosive reaction will begin.
You will have 2-3 minutes to escape from that blast.
Take cover in a safe place or a bunker.
Although it's not a nuclear blast,
it's a fissile uranium blast.
The force of this blast will be so strong that,
if you don't get out of there...
Then this will not be an operation but a suicide mission.
You understand, young fellow?
Yes, sir.
All the best.
Jai Hind.
Jai Hind, sir.
(intense music)
Sir, the temperature of the cooling water
is increasing instead of decreasing.
- What? - Yes, sir.
Impossible. Check again.
I've checked twice.
The temperature has gone from 150 to 600.
- What! - Yes, sir.
Impossible. This shouldn't happen.
(scientist) Sir, something is very wrong.
Check the reactor pressure.
Checking, sir.
Retracting fuel rods.
- What about water tonnage? - Reducing, sir.
Running water pumps. Try that.
Copy, sir.
Sir! Sir, the temperature has gone up to 800 degrees now.
(suspenseful music)
Come on. Hurry up, Mr. Noor.
Just be normal, and don't turn around.
(supervisor) Where are you going? Stop!
Mr. Noor, what are you doing? Keep walking.
Just keep walking.
Why is the cooling water green?
- (automated voice) Warning! - (siren blaring)
Check the temperature. Call the plant. Do something!
Dr. Khan! Dr. Khan, do we abort?
Abort?
Someone has mixed something in the water.
What is mixed in the water?
- Stop the water. - How, sir?
All systems are malfunctioning due to extreme heat.
Stopping the water from here is impossible.
Check your logs.
Dr. Khan.
- Dr. Khan, we need to abort! - I don't want to...
- Do you understand? - (Zia) What's happening?
- Ayub! - We need to abort, sir.
What do we do now?
- What is this? - This is my life's work, damn it!
(automated voice) Warning!
(sirens blaring)
This...
(water splashing)
(intense music)
(explosion)
(blasts continue)
(building rumbling)
(explosion)
(static)
(soft tense music)

(matchstick lights)
(fire crackle)
(zips jacket)
Today Kahuta is free from this poison, Mr. Noor.
Mr. Noor.
We will never meet again.
(sombre music)
- This will be useful for the village. - No, no, no.
Keep it.
For the sake of the villagers.
You are not from an NGO, sir.
Who are you?
A good neighbour.
Goodbye.
(upbeat patriotic song playing)
(car door slams)
Goodbye.
Indian brother.
(song fades off)
(radio playing)
(tense music)
Adhir?
(tense music rises)
Get me the Indian Embassy.
(man 1) All the Indians from the Indian Embassy
left for Delhi this evening, General.
What are you saying?
For Diwali...
- You mean, at this time... - You approved
everyone's exit permits, sir.
I approved?
You do one thing.
Whoever is in the embassy, ​​drag them here.
(man 2) But, General, everyone has left.
(shouts) How did they just leave?
How did they leave?
(dramatic music)
(glass breaking)
(Zia grunting)
(glass breaking)
(news on radio) ISI has claimed this could be the result
of a covert espionage operation.
Was there indeed an Indian spy
who may have pushed Pakistan's nuclear ambitions...
(glass breaking)
(music intensifies)
(wheels screech)
(suspenseful music)
Check the timing. Is it on time?
(man) Security...
Has the flight landed?
The anxiety of meeting your mother
is clearly visible on your face.
Actually, I'm anxious because I want to go to the restroom.
It was a three-hour journey from Abbottabad.
Of course, my love.
Haris.
(suspenseful music)
(door closes)
Good morning, Mariam.
Sir?
Sir, are you here?
(Adhir) Now, listen to me carefully.
You are currently in the arrival area.
You need to reach the international departure Gate 2 in 10 minutes.
How, sir? It's impossible. Ashfaq and--
A group of women in burqas
has entered your washroom.
Go out with them and reach the departure gate.
Look at the stall's door, Mariam.
(music intensifies)
(crushing)
(flushing)
What do you mean by "the Chinese are not responding"?
- (man) Sir... - They have to pay for the goddamn uranium.
We're trying, sir.
(music intensifies)
(wheels screech)
Yes, sir?
Harris, the Dubai flight has landed.
Where is Mariam?
I'll check right away, sir.
Mariam!
(door thuds)
(door opens)
(dramatic music)
Colonel!
She escaped, Colonel.
I found her broken phone in the bathroom.
Colonel... Colonel, she escaped!
(intense music)
Your name is Shazia Ahmed.
And I am your husband.
Kabir Ahmed.
Nice to meet you, husband.
Shall we go home?
Please remove the burqa.
(tense music)
(announcements over speaker)
Haris, she is wearing a burqa.
Check all the women wearing burqas.
She shouldn't get away.
(monitor beeps)
Show me your face.
Sir, please come here.
Remove your burqas. I said remove your burqas!
(intense music)
Sir, there's a problem.
Do you know about this?
Sorry?
Your visa expires tonight.
Well, actually...
Sir, our flight departs at 3:00 today.
- Who are you? - Her husband.
Okay.
Naeem.
Lift your burqas. Everyone. You too.
Come on.
Ma'am! Ma'am, please.
Please open the boarding gate. We have to board this flight.
Sorry, sir, we're locking the gate.
- Ma'am, we have to board it. - So sorry.
Ma'am, please understand. It's a family emergency.
We have to board this flight!
Okay. Wait.
Alpha One.
Captain, Charlie One and Venus Two at the gate.
We have a late boarding. They need your clearance.
Captain.

Sir, please.
(woman) Copy.
Clearance granted. Let them in.
It's your lucky day. Your passports.

(beeps)
- Thank you. - Thank you.
(dramatic music)
Where is this flight going?
Sir, Islamabad to Dubai.
Show me all the scanned passports on this flight.
It's a bright and sunny day.
(Captain on speaker) Ladies and gentlemen,

We are taxiing on the runway.
Awaiting take-off. Thank you.
Shazia Ahmed.
(bangs desk)
- Open the gate. - Sir, I can't open--
Open the gate!
The flight is already on the runway, sir.
(Captain) Cabin crew, please take your seats.
(tense music)
(gunshot goes off)
Stop the flight from Islamabad to Dubai right now.
Islamabad to Dubai...
- But the flight-- - Stop it right now.
Flight 2191, are you listening? Please respond, Captain.
Do not take off. I repeat, do not take off.
Please respond, Captain.
You are not cleared for take-off.
Copy that.
Ladies and gentlemen. We apologise for this,
but there seems to be an unexpected delay.
(man) Sir, I don't understand. I don't think the plane is stopping.
Captain, this is the military.
There's a national security threat on your plane.
Return to the bay now.
Do not take off. I repeat, do not take off!
Captain.
Negative, Colonel Ashfaq. Negative.
(heroic music)
Stay warned, ATC Islamabad.
We are ready for departure.
Let's go.
(music intensifies)
(pilot) All systems green.
Flaps set to take-off.
(pilot) Commencing take-off.
(dramatic music)
Sir.
(soft music)
Good job, Kabir.
- Sir. - Sit.
(inspiring music)
Adhir, the Prime Minister is very happy.
The doctor and I are, too.
Sir, if the country is safe,
then we are all happy.
Sir, if I may ask,
what about Bharucha?
He will rot in jail for the rest of his life.
For treason.
Do one thing, Adhir. Take a few days off.
After that, I have to talk to you about something important.
If it is important, let's talk about it right now, sir.
Your next mission.
He is a person of high interest.
He is a volatile character.
We don't know much about him.
But whatever we do know,
it's concerning.
We need to collect
as much information as we can about this man.
- Sir. - And who could be better
for this job than you?
Sir, may I know who he is?
I'll tell you everything when the time comes.
Just understand
that the threat is real, and his target is India.
(intense music)
Sir.
(music intensifies)
