The first 200 lines.
-Take cover! -Look over there!
Careful!
Gurjeet! Gurjeet, what happened?
It's doesn't matter who the enemy is.
Every army attack has four stages of battle.
Both of you go and do your work.
The first stage of battle.
Identifying the enemy.
Alpha, target is in the North East room.
The second stage of battle.
Hey! Who is that?
The fight.
On 2 'O clock, Charlie.
10 'O clock.
"11..."
"12..."
"1..."
Now!
The third stage of battle.
Finding out the enemy's weakness.
The doctor is here.
No matter how strong the enemy is;
they'll definitely have a weakness.
Mother, please bear for some more time. Everything will be fine.
I've arranged for a doctor.
We are good to go, Alpha.
Here.
-Stop. -Keep your bag down.
Raise your hands.
On the count of three.
One... two...
Now!
Bravo, there's no one here.
Check the peripheral walls.
-Karishma! -Mommy!
Come on, move!
Thank you.
And finally, the defining moment of victory or failure.
The fourth and final stage of battle.
Deceiving the enemy.
Alpha, the target is right behind you.
Each and every soldier knows...
there is an unsaid fifth stage of battle.
Sacrifice.
It doesn't matter who wins because there will be loss on either side.
No battle is over without crossing these five stages.
I am Captain Vijaykumar, Indian Army.
This is my one and only identity.
Everybody calls me an orphan.
My parents abandoned me and left me in the Sainik Military school in Amaravathi.
These guys are my teammates, friends and family.
How long will you act as if you aren't bothered, Rekhs?
Captain!
I haven't even confessed it to him.
How did you find out?
I know you guys better than you do yourselves.
I know my team. Now, go inside and see him.
"What does the next moment hold for us; the eyes are eagerly awaiting"
"The moments of the past were all pure gold"
Now!
"My heart knows it"
"When the new memories are made, the old ones make way"
"And your whole life so far, will flash in front of your eyes"
"Memories... All these golden memories..."
"I can see them in our eyes"
"Memories... All these golden memories..."
"They are made as we walk together in this path of life"
"The world wakes up to a new sun everyday"
"Follow its guidance and it will melt away all your barriers"
"Memories... All these golden memories..."
"They are made as we walk together in this path of life"
"The first memory and the last one..."
"both of them are the past and they don't matter now"
"Memories, they come and go. Some last and some fade"
"You can never control them. If you try, it'll only lead to pain"
"Some memories are the ones you wanna live again"
"Some are the ones you don't even wanna think of"
"But you still live through all your memories"
"Memories... All these golden memories..."
"I can see them in our eyes"
"A gloomy and sad day might become a lasting memory"
A bright and happy day might become a faded memory
"Some moments will remain precious, like diamonds from a treasure trove"
"Some moments will walk away, like tears rolling down the eyes"
"Memories... All these golden memories..."
"I can see them in our eyes"
I escaped with this injury on my leg. If I was in captain's position...
I'd have been definitely dead.
He always takes the most riskiest position.
This is sector 42.
A road built by the Britishers before partition.
East India company's mineral processing factory.
This area consists of only these two.
Sector 42, that belongs to India,
has no military activity or civilian activity for the past 50 years.
But now...
defense ministry has decided to establish civilian activity over there.
So we sent a team of Soldiers.
You know... to scout.
The usual recce mission.
But none of them returned.
Each and everyone of them died.
Sector 42 has no civilization at all.
Then who attacked them?
Your mission...
is to neutralize the threat in Sector 42.
And give a NOC (No Objection Certificate) stating it's safe for civilian activity
40 kms towards North is China.
25 kms towards West is Nepal, Captain.
Beyond this is a 'No fly' zone for us, captain.
We shall land in the base camp within the safe zone.
Usually our team is only sent for Specialized Covert Operations.
They won't send us to simply scout an area.
What really happened here, Major?
The commanding officer of the earlier team that went there...
was me.
I came to this base camp to warn your team.
According to the autopsy report...
the enemy is not an outsider.
One of our own soldier, Lieutenant Gurjeet Singh...
shot down all the team members...
and finally shot himself.
Any suspicious activities in Lieutenant's history?
This is the question running in everybody's mind.
Gurjeet Singh's full life history is being investigated.
Something suspicious has happened in that forest.
The truth will be out once the investigation is over.
As far as our team is concerned, we are all family.
We were together in training for six years.
The enemy must be an outsider.
Captain...
we should've given a dummy gun to Rekhs.
She is unpredictable.
Base, can you hear me?
Base, can you hear me?
The radio signal is disconnected.
Captain!
Something's on the top of the vehicle!
Karna, take cover!
Sheikh, careful! Behind you!
Rekhs! Rekhs!
Karthi.
Karthi!
Karthi!
What are you doing?
Put the gun down, Karthi.
Listen to me. I'll come to you.
Sorry captain.
I don't know what justification will I give to Karthi's mother.
It's okay.
It is the same shoulder bone, that you had injured back in 2018,
from where we have removed the bullet now.
It might even take years for the pain to go away completely.
I'll prescribe Morphine tablets to control the pain.
"Sorry captain"
Last words Karthi told me.
Why should he apologize to me, Major?
Vijay, we cannot change the past.
For your own good...
Before the General arrives, please sign the papers.
I have no interest in putting the blame on him.
At ease, captain!
Sit down.
Captain Vijaykumar, think carefully before you give your statement.
Before officially approving it,
do you have any change of mind?
No, General.
For what ever happened in Sector 42,
I take the complete responsibility as the Captain.
That's my final statement.
Your statement must reflect the reality.
Someone had poisoned the team.
The bullet from your body and Lieutenant Sheikh's shoulder...
were fired from Lieutenant Karthi's gun.
He betrayed your team and the nation! He's a traitor!
With all due respect, General...
there's no change in my statement.
Karthi wouldn't have done any crime.
He's not a traitor.
May I leave?
You may go.
He has lost his mind.
Karna, on the day of the incident, was the Thermal Radar system on?
Yes, Captain.
That data can reveal who attacked us.
There are no outsiders, Captain.
There's no movement at all except for Karthi.
We are unable to find the enemy. That's it!
No approval for a military funeral for Karthi.
Will his family receive his pension?
Until the investigation is cleared, his pension has been put on hold.
In a village nearby Thanjavur, is where Karthi's mom...
raised him and his sister with great difficulty. He once told me that.
Ensure his family gets a cheque from this, every month.
Okay, captain.
No national flag...
No gun firing...
No military funeral.
I cannot face Karthi's family.
Captain.
