[knocking on door]
[Bruce] Yeah, come in.
Mr. Lennington, Srikant Tiwari from NIA is on the line for you from India.
Yeah, put him through.
Okay. Thank you.
[man] Getting a patch from Islamabad.
Sir, connecting you to Bruce Lennington in Islamabad.
- Hi, Bruce. - Hey, Srikant. Been a while. How you been?
I've been fine. How are you?
All good. What's happening? What's up?
Okay, Bruce, I have someone you've been desperately looking for.
- Go on. I'm all ears. -Faizan Ahmed.
Tell me.
I have his Sat number and his location where he is hiding.
You're sure it's Faizan?
Absolutely.
Where is he now?
Somewhere in Zhob Province in Balochistan.
You have his exact location?
Not yet. But we'll get it. But I need a favor from you in return.
What favor?
I want to have a chat with him in person.
Ah... That...
I don't know how we're gonna achieve that, I mean,
assuming we do nab him, I'm not gonna be able to bring him to India.
[sighing] Well... If the mountain doesn't come to Muhammad...
[chuckles]
All right, what's the plan?
Two words. Dzhokhar Dudayev.
And you think that'll work?
[Srikant in Hindi] Dzhokhar Dudayev was a Chechnyan rebel.
The KGB used a similar plan to nab him.
[Saloni] You think this plan will work?
- If luck is on our side, why not? - [cell phone buzzing]
[in English] Just a sec. Yeah, Zoya?
Sir, the tech team has processed the voice sample,
and they have sent us an audio fingerprint back.
[in Hindi] What do you think?
Sir, it might work, with a little difficulty, though.
The sample was very small. A slightly bigger sample would have been much better.
It is what it is, Zoya. We do not have any more time. Send it!
[in English] Okay, sir. Sending it to you right away. And, sir? Good luck.
[chuckles] Thank you, Zoya.
[Bruce] Okay, so these are the six safehouses
around the coordinates we've received.
He could be hiding in any one of these. Tracking all these houses as we speak.
Beaming visuals onto the screens. We've got tactical units
in striking distance at all these locations. You copy?
Are you sure that these are the only possible places where he could be?
I hope so. These are the only locations we know that General Ansari uses.
- Okay. -How're things going on your end?
Well, using the voice sample from the conversation of Sajid
with Faizan, we've managed to put together his voice profile.
I think we can manage with that.
[Srikant in Hindi] Play it.
[Sajid over speakers] Peace be upon you, brother.
I can't hear you, brother.
No. It's too clear. Add some more noise there.
[Sajid] Peace be upon you, brother. Hello?
I can't hear you, brother.
The network is very bad.
Very good. Play this one.
[in English] Bruce, we are ready.
Copy.
[man] Connecting, sir.
[telephone ringing]
- [woman] Okay. - [man] Stand by...
[woman] TU-One is active and ready to launch.
[telephone continues ringing]
- [busy signal] - [in Hindi] Try again.
- [woman in English] Negative, sir. - [man] Connecting again, sir.
[telephone ringing]
[Faizan over telephone] Hello?
[Sajid in Hindi] Peace be upon you, brother.
And upon you, too. Sajid. All well? Where did you get this number from?
[Sajid] Hello, I can't hear you, brother.
- The network is very bad. - Play it.
[in English] Hello?
[Sajid in Hindi] Hello? I can't hear you, brother.
[Faizan] Wait, let me go to the terrace. We don't get a good signal in the house.
[in English] Focus, guys.
Come on, come on.
Bruce, did you see him?
[Bruce] Where is he?
[man] Waiting for target confirmation, sir.
[Sajid in Hindi] Hello, brother...
Hello, can you hear me now?
Play it. Play it.
- [Sajid] Hello? I can't hear you. - Hello, Sajid?
- Do we have anything else? - Nothing else, sir.
[Faizan] Hello, Sajid? Hello?
Fuck it. Keep playing this on a loop.
[Sajid] I can't hear you, brother.
- [man in English] Ready for launch. - [woman] Negative.
- [Sajid in Hindi] Hello, brother? - Hello?
- [Sajid] I can't hear you, brother. - [Faizan] Hello, Sajid?
[Sajid] I think the signal is bad.
[in English] There he is. Zoom in.
- [man] Zooming on Sat... - [Faizan] Hello. Hello...
[Sajid in Hindi] Can't hear you, brother.
[Faizan] Hello, Sajid?
[Sajid] Hello, brother, can't hear you.
Are you talking from the depths of hell?
[man in English] Target locked, sir.
- [Bruce] Srikant? - Yes?
We got him.
[all] Yes!
[in Hindi] Bloody idiot.
[helicopter whirring]
[opening theme music playing]
[Prime Minister speaking in Hindi] What is this "Faizan" issue?
He was hiding under our very noses in this country. Yet we were clueless.
Bin Laden has already caused enough embarrassment.
We can't afford to be shamed anymore.
The embassy has received a call from the White House.
It's not a secret that General Ansari is behind this.
And the news is, somebody from the ISI is involved too.
General Khurshid, this is a very serious matter.
Sir, I agree. Even we are suspicious.
We are checking the travel records of our men and agents.
Whoever is responsible for this will be exposed soon.
Hurry up with whatever you have planned. The Americans are choking us.
And threatening us, saying they'll stop giving us aid.
Please speak to the Secretary of State.
- Yes, sir. - That's all. Thank you.
[Prime Minister] General Khurshid, please wait.
What's going on, Khurshid?
I'm sorry, sir. But Faizan has been hidden by General Ansari and his men.
So what were you doing all this time?
The least you could have done was keep an eye on Ansari.
We are tracking him, sir. As soon as he leaves Balochistan,
we trace his every movement.
But that's his turf, so we have our limitations.
We need to clean up this garbage at the earliest.
Sir, what if we need to get rid of Ansari to achieve this?
It won't be that easy.
He has fought a war for Pakistan.
He's a recipient of the Nishan-e-Haider award.
He's also close to some of the top brass in the Army and the ISI.
Find out his connection in the ISI.
We'll need to tread carefully here.
Mom, very cool. You never dressed up this way before when going to the office.
[sighs] Okay, listen. I'm going for an important conference in Lonavala.
I'll take some time to come back. Okay?
And you're old enough to keep an eye on the house now.
And on him too. Make sure he doesn't play video games all day.
That's a math tutorial. Not everything on the tablet is a video game.
[Suchi] I've told Aunty Neelam, she'll make food for you guys.
Eat whatever she cooks. And no tantrums, and no wasting food.
And don't make a mess in the entire house. Okay?
If you want something to munch on, then take it from the top drawer.
[in English] Mom, got it.
[in Hindi] Forgot something else.
- [doorbell ringing] - [Suchi] Dhriti, get the door.
- Atharv... - [sighing] Come on.
[in English] Hi, Atharv, right? I'm Arvind.
Mama?
[in Hindi] Mama! There's somebody at the door.
Hi.
- Hi, Suchi. Hi. - [Suchi] Come in. Come in. Hi.
Young lady, you must be Dhriti, right?
What will you have, tea or coffee?
Filter coffee, if possible.
Sure, sure.
Hello, don't you want to go to school? You're getting late.
- Get up. Come on. Go, go, go. - Mom.
[in English] Get up.
- Bye. - [Suchi] Go.
Dhriti? Lunchbox.
Who's he?
[in Hindi] I told you earlier. He's a colleague of mine.
You look like you are going for a picnic, not a conference.
Don't put too much sugar.
Shit, man. Please. You scared me. Okay, listen, how's Rhea?
She's much better, much better.
Her grandma came to know that she's ill, so she took her along to her house.
[in English] Thank God for grandmas.
- [in Hindi] Okay. Listen... - There you go.
- So, Nikhil is coming from Delhi. - Okay.
So he'll meet us directly at the venue.
There's a startup boot camp over there. We'll be meeting our VCs there.
Boot camp?
Yes. These techies find the word "conference" very demeaning,
so they call it "boot camp." Sounds cooler.
[in Hindi] Nice?
Authentic filter coffee.
[Srikant in Hindi] Sir, the Americans are not going to budge a bit.
They don't give a shit about Zulfiqar or the threat that it poses to India.
Sir, please, I want to interrogate Faizan.
We don't have time, and neither does Moosa or Sajid.
Both of them have been trained by Faizan.
If anybody knows about their location and plan, it is Faizan.
[in English] This is an extraordinary request, Srikant.
But this is an extraordinary situation, sir.
[in Hindi] You cannot go to Balochistan officially.
That's all right, sir. At least, I can go unofficially.
If you go unofficially and something happens to you, then?
So you won't be able to get me out of there.
Sir, I've made some mistakes,
which have led to the deaths of some innocent people.
This is my only chance to correct my mistakes, sir.
My life or some other life isn't worth more than Zulfiqar's.
Sir, it's my gut feeling something is going to happen that is so dreadful
none of us can contemplate the horror of it.
[Ansari] Qazi is a bastard. It's shameful that a coward like him
is the Prime Minister of Pakistan.
I am sure he must have led the CIA to Faizan.
All that son of a bitch wants to do is lick the spit of the whites.
And his slave, Khurshid, both of them, bastards.
Sir, I suggest that we commence phase two.
What do you think about Faizan? Will he spill the beans on Zulfiqar?
Sir, Faizan barely knows anything about Zulfiqar.
But he can point fingers in our direction.
And you know our Prime Minister... The moment he learns about it,
he'll go all out to stop us.
You are right. Maybe it's time, then. Are we fully ready?
We can start phase two in the next 48 hours.
Sameer.
We are nearing the end of our mission.
With Allah's grace, this mission will be successful.
The responsibility for the success of this mission is mine, sir.
[Saloni] The jet belongs to this guy from Delhi.
He's one of the many businessmen doing infrastructure work in Afghanistan.
This plane will touch down in Kandahar for some time.
RAW's asset, Mustafa, will meet you there.
Balochistan is a two-hour drive away from there. He'll take you there.
[in English] And, Srikant, you know that this is completely off the record.
If you're caught, you're on your own. We cannot extract you.
I know the risks.
You sure about this? There are other ways of extracting information from Faizan.
[in Hindi] We don't have time for those ways.
I should have done this a long time ago, Saloni.
Good luck, Srikant.
- [in English] Hi. - [woman] Welcome to boot camp, sir.
- Hello, sir. - Thank you.
- Hi. - Hello, ma'am.
- Your name, sir? - Arvind and Suchitra.
And... Okay. Ma'am, Arvind and Suchitra. Okay.
- Your card, sir. - Yeah. Thank you.
- Yours, ma'am. - Thank you.
- And your keys. - Thanks.
- All the best, sir. All the best, ma'am. - Thank you.
- Thank you. Let's freshen up? - Yeah.
[Arvind] So, Nikhil wants to do the opening remarks.
Glad you came. Because with all these men around, you'll create a...
Arvind.
- Okay. Are you done? - Yeah.
- Thank you. Thank you so much. - Sorry.
[in Hindi] Forget it.
You know what? I feel you should speak too.
[in English] Because Nikhil sometimes tends to get too technical.
You're more natural. You can do it charmingly.
Charming? I'm flattered. Yeah, thank you.
[in Hindi] What I mean is that you have
a way with words and manipulate people easily.
[in English] What a backhanded compliment.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
[in Hindi] Take this.
So the story is that your name is Fahd Ahmed.
Fahd Ahmed?
You have a spice business in Karachi.
We are business partners. And we are travelling to Quetta for some work.
- Are you from Mumbai? - Yes.
Great. It's an incredible city.
I have seen it so many times in the movies.
I never got a chance to visit it.
But it seems that my dream of visiting India will always be just a dream.
How long have you been in Balochistan?
Around 17 years now.
Seventeen years, my God.
I am actually from Patiala, Jasmeet Singh.
Jasmeet Singh?
I changed my name and came here during the rebellion.
I thought of returning after a couple of years.
But I kept postponing it,
and 17 years just passed by.
[laughs] And now I am just Mustafa of Quetta.
[both chuckle]
[Srikant] Don't you miss your home, your city, your family?
I stay here with my family, my wife and my children.
I lost my parents a few years back. I wasn't able to go home even then.
Making sacrifices for the nation is not everybody's cup of tea.
But in our city, people just beat the drum about patriotism.
Nationalists!
We have settled over here now, and we like it, too.
No complaints against anybody. Now, this is our home.
But fear lurks, even at home.
If my cover is blown,
they'll take me away and slaughter me like a dog.
Don't worry, nothing like that will happen.
What about your family?
Of course. Here, have a look. These two little Avengers.
In the middle is Thanos.
God bless. God bless.
[Nikhil in English] Perception management
is an equally big challenge in the field of mental health.
We factored in the cost of educating the support system,
friends and family,
on how to deal with people with mental health issues.
We plan to take out social media campaigns,
and ads on television, outreach programs,
events in colleges, reaching out to young influencers is a key priority.
Any questions?
Please feel free if you have any questions,
or if you need any more clarifications.
I must assure you of one thing. There are not many models of this kind
in the market right now. We are doing it out of passion,
and of course, financial viability.
So, any questions?
Arvind...
Can I add a few points?
Yeah. Sure, sure.
Sure?
Hi, everyone. I am Suchitra lyer,
and I'd just like to add a few points to what Nikhil said.
Normally, when we have a small problem like a swollen finger or a toothache
[in Hindi] or a normal cough and cold, what do we say?
[in English] Go see a doctor.
If someone says that I'm feeling too low.
I'm feeling too depressed, or I'm not in the mood today,
[in Hindi] then what do we say?
"Come on, buddy, let's grab a drink." And the worst thing is,
[in English] "Get some action tonight and everything will be fine."
[laughter]
The problem is, we don't give importance to mental health
as much as we give it to physical health.
[in Hindi] If our body has a problem, then we have a solution for everything.
But if anybody needs mental help,
[in English] which I strongly believe that we all need at some point in time.
[in Hindi] Then, we don't know what to do. And even if we do know,
we don't do anything, thinking that people will laugh at us.
[in English] This is where we would like to come in.
We want to make sure that we not only have easy access to help,
but we have to fight this taboo of seeking this help.
[in Hindi] For the last 12 years, I was living in my comfort zone.
[in English] I had a safe, happy and easy job.
[in Hindi] I decided overnight that I'd quit the job, and I did it.
[in English] I joined this company where nothing is easy. There are no benefits.
- And there is no money. - [laughter]
Well, not yet, of course. Believe you me, we do not have an office.
We have worked out of all the cafes all over, except Starbucks.
- Quite frankly, we can't afford it yet. - [laughter]
But seriously, each one of us is attached to this company.
And the reason for that
is the idea behind it, which is very beautiful.
[audience applauding]
Thank you.
- Great job, guys. We nailed it. - Cheers to that.
Cheers, cheers, cheers.
Guys, you know what? I see Priyanshu there. I'll be right back.
- All the best. - All the best.
[Nikhil] Thanks.
- He's super excited. - Yeah, he looks it also.
Listen.
When you said I want to say something, I was a bit scared.
[in Hindi] I didn't know what you would say.
[in English] But when you started, you were flawless.
So, congratulations.
I can't believe I actually did it.
You liked it?
I loved it.
- [TV playing] - [in Hindi] Atharv, switch off the TV.
Why?
You have been watching TV for the last hour, enough!
We have to go for dinner to Aunty Neelam's house.
Come on, get up. Let's go.
[in English] Don't try to be Mom.
[cell phone ringing]
Hello, Ma?
[in Hindi] Did you guys have dinner?
- No, we were just leaving. -What do you mean you are leaving now?
Aunt Neelam must be waiting, go right away.
Yeah, Mom, we are going.
Okay, I am going to be a bit delayed.
If you want, you two can sleep at Aunt Neelam's place.
No, no, no. We'll sleep here.
[clicks tongue]
[sighs] Okay, listen, uh, latch the main door properly.
Okay? Don't forget about it.
Ma, will you take long to reach home?
Yes, it does seem like it. It'll take some time.
But I promise I'll be back as soon as possible. All right?
[in English] Okay. Don't worry. We are fine.
Okay. Bye.
[Jasmeet in Hindi] Leave the talking to me.
You just pretend to be asleep.
[guard] Papers?
Here.
What were you doing in Afghanistan?
We have a spice business.
What's wrong with him? Hello?
[Jasmeet] He hasn't slept the whole night.
[grunts sleepily]
He's my business partner. He's from Karachi.
[Jasmeet] They're getting suspicious about us.
[guard] My colleague thinks it is necessary to check you.
- Are you married? - What?
Are you married?
Twice.
Twice, my God!
Take it.
Take this and buy gifts for both.
I'm a businessman, and my time is more important than money.
I would appreciate it if you could speed things up a bit.
Let them go.
Thank you. Khuda Hafiz!
[man] Khuda Hafiz!
[Jasmeet] Just what were you doing back there.
He was a soldier, not an Indian policeman.
You tried to bribe him. What if he had arrested us?
Bribery works everywhere, Jasmeet.
You know that colleague of his who had gone in? He was speaking on the phone
without dialing a number. He was trying to threaten us.
I see.
[Srikant] Indian policemen do take bribes sometimes,
but they never behave so foolishly.
[both laugh]
[door opens and closes]
[TV plays]
[in English] Guess what? We got it.
- Yes! - We did it, guys. We did it!
- Okay. - Where's the fucking champagne? Waiter?
What?
Here, here. It's time to celebrate. We have to celebrate.
To Shrink Me.
- Cheers. Cheers, cheers. - Cheers to you.
[Nikhil] One more. Champagne.
[music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
- Hi. - Thanks.
- Happy birthday, Sid. - Thanks.
- [doorbell rings] - What's up, bro?
Wow. You finally made it.
[in Hindi] I thought you'd never come.
[music and chatter continues]
Crash for a bit. We'll leave early. I want to arrive before the kids wake up.
[girl vomitting]
[in English] Hi, D.
Here. Check this out.
[in Hindi] Try it. You don't know what you're missing out on.
One should try everything in life.
Try it once. Later, you'll be asking me for it yourself.
[in English] Try it?
- Try it. - I said, "No."
Fine, your loss.
[grunts]
Just go home. I don't even know why I called you. You're such a loser.
Just go. Go!
[door opens]
[door closes]
[speaking in Tamil] Sister, sister.
Sister.
Are you crying, sister?
I won't tell Mom that you went out.
Atharv, please go away. I'm coming, okay?
Please, sister. Don't cry. Please, sister.
[grunts]
[cell phone beeps]
[cell phone vibrates]
I'm feeling bad. I took up the whole bed.
[grunts]
[cell phone beeps]
[cell phone vibrates]
[cell phone beeps]
I can't sleep!
[chuckles softly]
Me neither.
[Jasmeet in Hindi] The CIA has kept Faizan in a safe house in this very city.
5,000 people are keeping an eye on him.
The location is a secret.
What about the guys that I mentioned?
[Jasmeet] They're on the way, they must be arriving soon.
We'll need to wait a bit, though.
We'll wait here. Our team will arrive by morning.
Hi, darling. What happened?
He was born a monkey, right?
That's true. He even had a long tail.
We had it removed with great difficulty, through surgery.
Mom, you must have a few pictures of those days.
Of course I have them. I'll show them to you.
[Atharv] Hey!
Stop it.
[line ringing]
- Hi, Suchi. - Hi.
Is everything all right?
How are the children? How are you?
The kids are fine.
You tell me, how are you?
- And what's going on there? -Everything is going well.
The usual files and paperwork.
When are you coming back?
I myself want to come back soon. But... Let's see.
Hmm.
Is everything all right at home?
Yes, everything is fine here.
Don't worry about us.
Focus on your work, it's important.
Finish it and come back...
Sri,
as soon as possible.
They've arrived.
I need to go now. Okay?
Thank you.
- [distant gunshot] - [gasps]
Hello?
What's going on?
[straining] Hello?
- Untie him. - Who are you? Why...
Don't waste time talking. Get out of here before someone finds out. Let's go.
Let's go.
[gasping]
Faizan, let's get out of here.
[panting]
Thank you for saving my life. Are you from the Pakistan army?
We are with the ISI.
The Prime Minister himself has planned this operation.
The Prime Minister?
Look, Faizan, listen to me carefully.
We had no clue that you were in Pakistan.
What's more, you were caught.
This was extremely shameful for the Prime Minister.
As it is, Pakistan has a bad reputation.
And once everyone learns that we have been harboring a terrorist,
we'll have to face more ridicule.
All the nations in the world will blacklist us.
I was only following the sacred word of...
Stop that nonsense! Talking rubbish!
Save that for your recruits. Got it?
You don't serve God, you only serve American dollars.
- But I... - Shut up!
You understand nothing! Do you know the Prime Minister got a call
from the Indian Prime Minister himself, threatening war?
Have you sent two of your boys to India for a mission?
[stammering] Mission...
- Zulfiqar. - Mission Zulfiqar.
Look, Faizan, you have two options.
Tell those two guys to immediately abort the mission
and give us their location.
A car is waiting for you at the end of this tunnel.
It'll take you straight to the airport.
This is your Saudi passport and a ticket.
This is the parting gift from the Prime Minister.
We know that you funnel all the money that you get
into a secret account in Saudi Arabia.
Say goodbye to Pakistan and lead a peaceful life.
Or else, stay six feet under the ground buried in some unmarked grave in Pakistan.
We don't want Pakistan's name dragged through the mud because of you.
So what do you want to do?
Can I go to Sudan? I don't like the climate in Saudi Arabia.
Is the climate in Sudan good?
[Faizan panting]
Who are these guys?
[Srikant] They'll be taking you to the airport.
Fucker!
Bastard! You guys betrayed me! I'm going to screw each one of you!
Bastards!
[in English] I hope you got what you wanted from him.
Got something. But thank you, Bruce. Thank you for your help.
Anytime. Anytime, Srikant.
[Srikant in Hindi] Sir, both Moosa and Sajid have been trained by Faizan.
A few years back the Lashkar-e-Taiba
got their hands on a stockpile of nerve gas in POK.
This was later seized by the ISI.
Then, Major Sameer and Ansari drew up a secret plan, Mission Zulfiqar.
Over a few years, they slowly smuggled all of the nerve gas
across the border into Kashmir, in small quantities.
Today the nerve gas has been stockpiled in a hideout in Kashmir.
Sir, the original plan was that Moosa and Asif would enter India,
Asif would get all the nerve gas into Delhi from Kashmir,
and Moosa would make a bomb in Delhi.
But after Asif was caught, Faizan chose Sajid for this task.
Sajid is much more dangerous and intelligent.
If my guess is right,
then Sajid is currently getting the nerve gas stock to Delhi,
and Moosa is hiding somewhere.
And these two will finally meet in Delhi.
[in English] Nerve gas attack in Delhi.
- What a disaster. - [Srikant over phone] Yes, sir.
This time they didn't go for terrorist attacks like 26/11,
or the parliament attack, which were eventually blamed
on independent terrorist groups.
Nerve gas attack means an act of war.
And this is not possible without government support.
Which means that the Indian government will have to go to war with Pakistan.
This will give General Ansari an opportunity to carry out a coup.
And soon, the reins of the Pakistani government will be in his hands.
Sir, Major Sameer has all the information.
Sir, I think we should involve the government of Pakistan.
We have to work together.
If this mission is successful, then this will be disastrous
for both the countries.
Good job, Srikant.
Yeah, good job, Srikant.
Thank you, sir.
[telephone ringing]
[man] Thanks for waiting, sir.
The honorable PM will join this call in a moment.
Thank you.
[Prime Minister in Hindi] Hello, Mr. Kulkarni.
Sir.
I have been briefed thoroughly about the seriousness of the situation.
I have only one question, Mr. Kulkarni.
And I want a straight and clear answer.
Do these guys really have a stockpile of nerve gas?
Yes, sir.
Mr. Kulkarni, we cannot afford a war at this time.
But if a nerve gas attack is carried out on us,
we'll have to retaliate.
We will have to fight a war with Pakistan even though we don't want to.
I need a solution to this problem. Let me know what I can do to help.
Sir, you'll need to speak to the Prime Minister of Pakistan.
And convince him to stop his men.
And give us the information that we need.
How sure are you about this information?
One of our agents is in Balochistan right now.
And I trust him completely.
[closing theme playing]
