We'll catch up tomorrow Aslam...

You've been drinking?

Dad, you know I don't drink.

Good-for-nothings...|Whatever, they're my friends.

Friends! They feel no|shame standing in front of...

...yourfather with alcohol on their breath.

Why can't you get friends|in your own community?

Why do you make friends with people|who corrupt you, disgrace your religion...

This has nothing to|do with religion, Father.

Shut up! Don't raise your voice|in the presence of yourfather.

He's right.

This country has never accepted|Muslims and it never will...

How can you be so passive!

Do you ever see me|mixing with a Hindu?

I'm not you and I don't want|to be like you brother.

I can't fill myself with so much hate...

Coward that's what you are.

Stop it!

I feel suffocated in this house.|It's the same old thing every single day...

Carnivals will be held on our|graves every year,

That's all that will be left of us,|when we die for our country.

Well said Ashfaq Sahab...

If the English could hearyou they|would leave this country in a moment.

So what has been decided?

We'll steal the Empire's money|from the train that passes Kakori.

And with that money we will buy arms.

Bismil will explain everything.

Yes Bismil... Where is my Ram?

Ljust can't find my|Ramprasad Bismil.

Relax. We will find him.

But where? How?

Very soon. Don't you wo...

You won't get Ramprasad|Bismil out here.

You need a true Indian.

How can you find Indian|revolutionaries amongst...

...people who want to be Westerners?

Ignore him. Let's go.

Ramprasad Bismil wished to|be reborn a hundred times...

...so that he could give his life for his|country a hundred times over.

Let's go Sue.

So where do you think|I can find my Bismil?

I don't believe this.

This day, we walk along with death,|and laugh at its pale spectre.

We will not fearthose cruel swords,|our courage is far sharper.

Mistake not our silence for submission.|For beneath lies lava, molten.

O Martyre, O men of valour.|One day the enemy will sing your praises.

We will show our mettle|when the moment of truth arrives...

...for courage lives in deeds,|not boastful lies.

We've gathered in the enemy's lair,|my friend...

In the hope of dying for our motherland.

We will not fearthose cruel swords,|our courage is far sharper.

This day, we walk along with death,|and laugh at its pale spectre.

We will not fearthose cruel swords,|our courage is far sharper.

Sue, this isn't London.|You don't know what kind...

...of scum, men like Laxman Pandey are.

Look Sue if he is a part of this,|then I can't do the film.

If you have any problems|with me say it on my face.

Don't stab me in the back like a coward.

Pandey leave!|We don't want trouble...
