Gandhi to Hitler

'Dear friend,'

'Friends have been urging me to write to you...'

'...for the sake of humanity.'

'But I have resisted their request, because of the feeIing...'

'...that any Ietter from me wouId be an impertinence.'

'Something teIIs me that I must not caIcuIate...'

'...and that I must my make appeaI for whatever it may be worth.'

'It is quite cIear that you are today the one person...'

'...in the worId who can prevent the war...'

'...which may reduce humanity to the savage state.'

'Must you pay that price for an object...'

'...however worthy it may appear to you to be?'

'WiII you Iisten to the appeaI of one who has deIiberateIy...'

'...shunned the method of war, not without considerabIe success?'

'Anyway, I anticipate your forgiveness...'

'...if I have erred in writing to you.'

'I remain, your sincere friend'

'Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.'

After the struggIe of so many years I have come to the concIusion, that..

..if we stiII continue to beg for independence..

..then the day we wish to see may never come.

Our country, our peopIe,

..our government, our Iaw..

..this is our right!

And in order to get this, we wiII have...

...to repIy to our enemy in the Ianguage he understands.

Germany is Britain's enemy.

Britain is our enemy too.

And the enemy's enemy is our friend.

We'II defeat the British government right here..

..by supporting the German army on their home soiI.

Are you ready to give me bIood? - Yes. We are ready.

HaiI India! - HaiI India!

I, Himmat Singh from Amritsar Punjab swear...

...on the AImighty.

GopaI Krishna Iyer, Travancore.

I, Hanuman, Punjab.

I, Hameed, Lahore.

Vivek SaniyaI. I take this vow in the name of God....

I, BaIbir Singh, Punjab.

I swear on the AImighty that I wiII keep..

..fighting against British army in coIIaboration with Germany..

..for India's freedom, tiII my Iast breath.

''We march forward for freedom.''

''To destroy the enemies.''

''We march forward for freedom.''

''To destroy the enemies.''

''We have to match step by step and march forward.''

''We have to keep marching forward.''

''We march forward for freedom.''

''To destroy the enemies.''

''We march forward for freedom.''

''To destroy the enemies.''

''We have to match step by step and march forward.''

''We have to keep marching forward.''

''We have to match step by step and march forward.''

''We have to keep marching forward.''

'20th ApriI, 1945.'

'The finaI stages of the second worId war..'

'..which was going on for aImost six years.'

'AImost aII of the significant countries of the worId..'

'..were invoIved in fighting each other..'

'..under the banners of the AIIied Forces and the Axis Forces.'

'The AIIied Forces made up of powerfuI countries..'

'..such as Russia, Britain, France and America..'

'..whiIst on the other hand..'

'..Germany, ItaIy and Japan had the reins of the Axis Forces.'

'But amidst aII this tumuIt..'

'..the one name that featured on the entire ..

..worId map was the architect of WorId War II..'

'..and the biggest dictator in history tiII now..'

'..the ChanceIIor of Germany, AdoIf HitIer.'

'But our story isn't about the AdoIf HitIer

who was proud of his dictatorship..'

'..and wanted to exercise controI over aII of Europe.'

'In fact this is the story about the HitIer..'

'..who hid in a bunker with his cIosest associates..'

'..enduring the Iast beating during the finaI days of the war.'

'And this was the time..'

'..when this dictator who aspired to ruIe aII over Europe..'

'..with the strength of guns and cannons,

was haunted by the image of a great saint..'

'..whose name was Mahatma Gandhi.'

CaII Dr. GoebbeIs.

What happened? Why do you Iook upset?

I think Fuhrer's enemies are attacking notjust from outside..

..but from inside as weII.

You mean traitors?

Such peopIe have no sympathies from me.

Everything wiII be fine.

Everything wiII be fine?

I have to go and meet Deh Fuhrer.

'21st ApriI 1945..'

'..the Russian Red Army had virtuaIIy surrounded..'

'..the city of BerIin.'

'To save their Iives, the civiIians had started moving out..'

'..Iooking for safe havens.'

'The hapIess German army graduaIIy started

surrendering itseIf to the Russians.'

God bIess you, Amrita. May God be with you!

How are you?

Fine Bapu.

Did you receive any Ietter from your husband BaIbir Singh?

No, Bapu.

It's been three months since I Iast heard from him.

I am certain it wiII come soon.

It is just that, I'm a IittIe scared.

Be brave, dear.

Have faith in the AImighty.

Amrita, Iisten up. Listen up.

'Indian Legion soIdiers..'

'..after Subhash Chandra Bose Ieft Germany..'

'..these soIdiers were forced to fight onIy for Germany.'

'These weary soIdiers now have onIy one wish..'

'..which is to somehow cross the European border..'

'..and reach their motherIand India.' - Go. Go. Go. Run.

Dr. GoebbeIs, you Iook afraid.

You did not get the Ietter?

Yes, Iast night.

I'm reading Shakespeare.

I may be in the fouIest of moods..

..but reading Shakespeare aIways cheers me up.

Danger knows fuII weII that Caesar is more dangerous than he.

We are two Iions Iittered in one day.

And I, the eIder and more terribIe.

And Caesar shaII go forth.

My Fuhrer, there is no power in this worId that can defeat you.

Our victory is certain.

What was our intention of coming here?

What are we actuaIIy doing?!

We are fighting a battIe. - Against whom?

Against whom?

Against our impending death!

Hey! My name is Himmat. Himmat (courage).

OnIy on paper.

You must have the power too.

Go surrender to the British army if you are scared.

Go Iick their boots!

Hey! - Shakir.

If you guys shut up,

then perhaps you wiII not feeI the urge to fight each other.

And if you cannot do that,

and shoot each other. Murder one another!

And if you can't even do that, then go to jump off the nearest cIiff.

Everything wiII be easy then.

The Russians are now

and I am being informed about this now?!

Were aII officers snoring untiI now?

They are watching the drama unfoId Iike cowards.

I never beIieved that my officers..

..wouId turn out to be so pathetic and weak..

..under the present circumstances.

It wouId have been better if I had just Iike StaIin did.

At Ieast Germany wouId not have had to bear the burden..

..of such wretched and puny officers!

My Fuhrer, this is done by those traitors..

we have received information on who they are.

They are Ieaking aII our secrets to the enemy.

Find the traitors and shoot them!

Carry their bodies to the square

so that the worId knows what the consequences..

..of betraying Germany are.

The things that threaten me..

..never Iook, but on my deck..

when they shaII see the face

they are vanished!

KeiteI's report is here, My Fuhrer.

The Russian convoy has raped..

..one thousand five hundred of our heIpIess women.

They wiII pay for this.

Prepare every singIe woman

for the protection of our country.

I want an eye for an eye!

An eye for an eye makes the whoIe worId bIind.

I pray to God to grant wisdom to those

who agree with this ideoIogy.

We have Ieft the barbarity..

..of the past far behind.

Yet, a few disiIIusioned peopIe aIways take..

..the decision to wage war,

and the hapIess citizenry of a nation..

..has to bear the consequences of it.

No side wins in a war.

Both the sides Iose to a certain extent.

And there are other ways to conduct a fight.

My dear feIIow Germans,

it is Fuhrer's 56th birthday today.

I had just been there,

and no arrangements for the party have been made yet.

And what about the band?

Where can we find a band in this war situation?

Dr. GoebbeIs said that he'II arrange for the band.

Oh wow! That is fantastic.

Whatever you seen on the streets is a part of our strategy.

BerIin is absoIuteIy safe.

Don't go by the rumours, and what a few journaIists..

..bought over by the enemy are saying.

The government machinery wiII naturaIIy be affected during a war.

But these smaII obstacIes cannot break our moraIe.

We have to face the enemy under aII circumstance.
