Kabul Express Page #2

Synopsis: Suhel (John Abraham) and Jai (Arshad Warsi) - TV journalists from India in search of the ultimate news scoop, meeting the Taliban. Imran Khan Afridi (Salman Shahid) - a soldier of the hated and derided Taliban who needs to escape the wrath of the Afghans and run to his country, Pakistan. Khyber (Hanif Hum Ghum) - an Afghan who is as old as the war in his country. Jessica Beckham (Linda Arsenio) - an American photojournalist ready to risk her life to photograph the Taliban. Five people from different worlds, their paths are destined to cross in a ruthless country devastated by war - Afghanistan. This is a thrilling story spanning 48 hours of five individuals linked by hate and fear, but brought together by fate to finally recognize each other. Set in post 9/11 war-torn Afghanistan, KABUL EXPRESS is a kidnap drama that is alternately funny and horrifying.

Thank you.

Hey you Santa Claus..

taken my cigarette..

..now send me the kebabs fast.

l hope everybody here doesn't do this.

Why are you such a scrooge?

lt's just a cigarette!

You know the problem.. l have only

one carton of cigarettes.

Any other brand hurts my throat.

Do l look like a cigarette wending

machine to him?

Khyber.. why do only women beg

on the streets?

They don't have an option.

Almost half the women are widows.

The Taliban stopped all women from working.

They were not allowed to leave home unless

escorted by a male relative.

lf a woman was spotted alone on the streets..

..they would beat her like an animal.

Bastards.

That's why l hate them so much.

Some of them are still hiding around.

lf we catch them, we will beat

them to death. Scoundrels!

Can we please do an interview

before you kill them? Thank you.

General Musharraf has dubbed

the recent public uprisings..

..as a conspiracy by radical groups.

He said that most Pakistani political

groups are unhappy..

..with his decision to help American

in the war against terrorism.

These groups have joined the Afghan refugees..

..to protest against the government..

..but their efforts have been unsuccessful.

See how quickly the Pakistan government

has dumped the Taliban.

They created the Taliban....

and now they say they will help the Americans

in destroying the Taliban.

Bloody liars.. they are killing their

own people.

ln Afghanistan's Kunduz area..

.. more than 50 Taliban have been killed by

the Northern Alliance Mujahidin.

Down with the Taliban! -Allah is great!

President Musharraf is unhappy

about institutions like madrassas..

.. and masjids being used for

anti religious activites.

ln the battle that's been going

on forthree days..

.. near Mazar-e-Sharif in Afghanistan...

..more than 200 Taliban have been killed.

Hearthat?

God alone knows how many amongst

them were our men..

And the guys sitting in lslamabad

are telling the world..

..that none of our men are in Afghanistan.

And there, across the border..

.. the Afghans are hunting them

down like wild animals.

And our government is doing

nothing to protect them.

The American dollar is worth much more

than fellow countrymen.

You have only 4 months of service left.

Why botheryourself over politics?

We can do nothing about it.

There! The bloody American Special Forces..

..have brought anothertruckload!

The bastards herd them like cattle..

God knows how many of our men

are in these Taliban..

ls he asking us to fire?

Careful! Make sure you don't get him.

Khyber, l completely agree with you.

The Taliban did some really horrible things..

..but not respecting women is the worst.
