We have just received news
about an avalanche that occurred
on the Nepal side of Mount Everest.
According to reports,
16 climbers are dead,
while 30 Sherpas and
climbers are missing.
Locals say that this is one of
the worst avalanches in over 44 years.
This could affect the Indian expedition.
Poorna Malavath and
Anand Kumar are at Camp Three.
We'll have to wait and see
if they're allowed to make this summit.
If Poorna makes it to the summit,
then at 13 years 10 months
she will be the youngest girl in history
As it is she's running a temperature
of 104 degrees and now this avalanche!
What will we do
if something happens to that girl?
Meena, look,
please don't panic like this.
I know you're worried about the girl.
Of course I am worried!
Of course I care, the government cares.
But this Operation Everest expedition
has my signature on it.
Look! I accept that 16 people have died,
but they were on the Nepal side.
Our children are ascending
from the China side.
It makes no difference, Alexander.
And you, if you're feeling bad
about calling them back,
please take a vacation then.
I will call them back.
She's started shivering.
It's definitely mild hypothermia.
She can't climb.
Sir, she won't listen.
We cannot take the chance,
prepare her for descent.
Okay, sir.
Anand, radio base camp.
- I'll do it right away, sir.
- Okay.
Don't worry. You'll be fine!
Why are you scared? Breathe!
Take a deep breath!
Hold your breath! Come on!
Hold your breath!
Yes! That's right! That's right!
Come on!
Sister! Sister! Sister!
Sister!!
Come on!
Puru!
You always do this.
Give me your bag.
I am Poorna, a poor girl!
Not poor silly, Power Girl Poorna.
- What?
- Wait. I will show you power.
Give me your hand, we'll walk together.
Like an army of ants.
One, two, never cry.
Three, four, always love.
Five, six, live as one.
Seven, eight, study hard.
Nine, ten, laugh your loudest!
Come on, you say it now.
One, two, never cry.
Three, four, always love.
Five, six, live as one.
Seven, eight, study hard.
Nine, ten, laugh your loudest!
We've come to study,
not to sweep floors!
Watch out!
We're done sweeping the floors.
Can we get back to class?
What? Until your father
and her father
don't pay your school fees,
keep sweeping!
Shut your mouth and stay at home!
School fees?
Where will I get the money from?
Who will sweep the floors
if everyone goes to school? Me?
Should I pay for the house
or pay for the school?
What good will that do?
The Prime Minister of Pakala village?
Take it in from one ear,
and let it out from the other.
Listen, we're running after books,
clothes and food here.
these very things will run after us.
Shut up! Does anything like this happen?
Of course! Here's what's
written, "Free Education".
Do you know what we will get there?
Listen.
Energy drink, milk, dosa, idli,
upma, biscuits, bananas and even eggs!
Have you ever eaten any of this?
Shall we run away?
Shall we run away tomorrow morning?
Quiet!
Don't shake your leg.
Now what?
Give me a minute.
Bye, Geeta! Don't forget me, okay?
Puru! Let's go!
Come on!
What are you both up to so early
in the morning?
Sister, I have brought you sweets.
You eat and celebrate your good fortune.
You're lucky.
I should have run away without you!
It'll be your turn soon.
I will feed you sweets then.
Run away, Puru!
Enough! Go to page number 36.
She's sulking like this all day.
My brother is right.
Priya has left, but she's left
our daughter with a school's obsession.
She is your daughter,
she'll do whatever you tell her to do.
You created such a fuss to come here.
Now what's the problem?
You want to go back?
Will you stay here?
Stay here for a couple of years.
It's free.
I don't even have money
India is my country.
All Indians are my brothers and sisters.
I love my country
and I am proud of it and my people.
I pledge my devotion.
In their well being and prosperity
alone lies my happiness.
Do you want to keep sketching
or can you go to school?
- Is that you inside the car?
- Yes! Yes!
When I become an important officer,
I will drive down this road.
Look at this, a small rugged lane.
This road will connect us to the city.
I'll take this route every day.
Who is that? The ghost on the hillock?
No, this is me.
When you come here
as an important officer,
I will wave to you from this hillock.
You will be married by then. Which
means you won't be in this village.
You there! This isn't the time to sit!
It's PT time. Come on! Let's go.
Come!
Kabbadi, Kabbadi, Kabbadi...
Sir, we can't hear her!
Sir, her voice is not coming!
Stop! Where's your strength?
Are you scared?
Come on then!
Kabbadi, Kabbadi, Kabbadi.
- Kabbadi, Kabbadi, Kabbadi.
- Get her!
Come on!
Kabbadi, Kabbadi, Kabbadi.
- Come on!
- Move!
Kabbadi.
Okay, next!
- What's your name?
- Poorna.
I am Sargam, this is Saba.
Let's go have lunch.
I have learnt to serve the nation
through the IPS.
"It is with this feeling that I
request you to transfer me
on deputation to the
Social Welfare Department."
"Yours Sincerely,
Dr. R S Praveen Kumar, IPS."
After you took a break
and studied at Harvard
all of us thought you would ask
for a high profile job.
