with your daughter.

Like I... play with my daughter.

Sir...

For you and I,

the biggest enemy is time.

It just doesn't seem to pass.

If we get together over

a game of chess, it might.

I'm but a fraction

You make me whole

I owe my life not to heartbeats

But to you, my soul

Whether you say it or you don't

My heart can hear

You're with me, my dear

You're right here

Checkmate!

Uncle... checkmate!

I'm leaving in three minutes

Want to lose one more time?

You'll beat me in three minutes?

- No. In two.

The third minute is to laugh at you.

Go on... run along now!

This is where everyone

gets it wrong, Mr. Daanish.

Students come to learn how to win.

But first,

they must learn how to learn.

Watch!

Let's take this move back.

That's a wrong move. Take it back.

I can't.

Can't take back the wrong move.

There lies the difference

between life and chess.

There are no second chances in life.

In chess, there are.

Come on.

Your move.

Checkmate

A game is a game is a game

To play to win is a sin

Play to learn and you'll win

Checkmate.

Checkmate.

Checkmate.

You see this rook...

he's a crazy beast.

For now, quiet in his corner.

But if the pawn in

front of him dies...

this rook goes on a rampage.

What's going on?

Lower the window.

- Yes?

What's wrong?

- His horse died.

Horse died?

Your mind is your only tool

Moves that fool are the rule

A game is a game is a game

Checkmate!

A game is a game is a game

To play to win is a sin

Play to learn and you'll win

How was it?

- What?

How did it feel after killing them?

The people who killed your child.

Must've felt good.

That's how I'll feel

when I kill that bastard.

Who?

Yazaad Qureshi.

The Welfare Minister?

The "messenger of peace",

Yazaad Qureshi.

I don't get it.

Nina would go to teach

his daughter chess.

One day, Mr. Qureshi's

secretary called...

"Panditji, your daughter

has been in an accident."

Mr. Qureshi said

Nina lost her balance...

and tripped on the stairs.

Maybe he was telling the truth.

That day, only I...

saw Qureshi's eyes.

It was no accident.

She was murdered...

By Yazaad Qureshi.

Yazaad Qureshi's incredible

journey began 8 years ago.

Terrorists attacked a

village of weavers in Kashmir.

They killed 55 people

of the village.

By the time the army arrived...

they found only Qureshi

and his daughter alive.

The whole country admires him.

The guy lost everything,

yet he said...

Guns won't fix anything. Love will.

First won hearts.

And then... elections

Within 8 years,

he became the Welfare Minister.

What do we know about his daughter?

Her name is Ruhi.

Age 13.

Nina Dhar taught

her chess for 2 years.
