"Papa, please help me!" "Hey!" "Turn the lights off!" "Turn the lights off!" "Hurry UP!" "Late again." "Come on in." "Your Wallet." " Oh, thank God you found it!" "All morning, Panditji kept asking... if anyone had returned his Wallet." "Don't just stand there." "Come in." "Oh Lord, he's so strong..." "and I'm so weak." "O Lord, show me the way." "How do I slay that evil King?" "He's so mighty, and I..." "Okay, stop, stop, stop." "Mr. Pawn, that's too timid!" ""How do I slay the evil king?"" "Son, you're seeking revenge, not buying candy!" ""How do I slay the evil king?"" "Try it again." "With all your head." "How do I slay the evil king?" "Like that." "Once again." " Panditji" "Yes?" "This gentleman found your Wallet." "I've taken money for milk" "Glasses lying around again!" "Thank you..." "You brought my daughter home." "This play is in her memory." "That's her..." "Nina, my daughter." "Last year, she fell down a staircase... and died." "I'm sorry." "Forgive me, your daughter's news reached me late." "I came there, but..." "I didn't want to disturb you..." "So, I left without meeting you." "You... knew Noorie?" "She came to learn chess, with her mom." "Ruhana, right?" "Yes." "This is where she came?" "Just twice." "Two classes later, she said, "This is easy!"" "She'd beat me... always." "Before she left, she said" ""|'|| send my Papa over."" ""Teach him chess."" ""Poor guy's really weak."" "See you." "Do come again..." "To play chess with our kids." "You'll feel you're playing 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?"

"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." "Musfve felt good." "That's how I'll feel when I kill that bastard." "Who?" "Yazaad Qu resh i." "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 heads." "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." "What else?" "There's nothing else!" "It's an open and shut case." "Nina slipped." "Fell down the stairs." "Head hit the floor." "That's it." "Died on the spot." "There were 4 eyewitnesses." "Qureshi's guys." "Let it go, man!" "The old man's messing with your mind." "Did Ruhi see anything?" " No." "She was in her room." "Packing her chess board." "But she was at home." "Hello." "Did you tell the Minister... that I'm here about an investigation?" "Please hold." "I told you your message has been conveyed." "Please wait, you'll be called." "Good morning." "The Minister is waiting for you." " Sir!" "The appointment is at 4" "Thank you." "Hello." "Sir." "You've been called in." "Come in." "Chief, here's your man." "Daanish Ali." "I was just telling your chief... to put you back on duty." "The terrorist you killed" " Rameez..." "He's the guy who had killed my whole family." "Wiped out my entire village." "Why are you still standing?" "Do sit down." "Please sit." "I'm really thankful to you." "How can I help?" "What's Wrong?" "You had something to ask, right?" "Don't hesitate." "I wanted to ask how Nina Dhar slipped down your stairs." "Officer, isn't this file getting closed?" "Yes, sir." "The file is being closed." "Don't worry, sir." "I'll take care of it." " It's okay." "It's alright." "Mr. Ali" "Fate has been unfair to Panditji." "First, the fanatics burned down his house in Kashmir." "Then, in a car accident, he lost his wife... and both his legs." "Last year, his daughter fell down the stairs..." "Anyone in his situation can lose mental balance." "You're his friend, aren't you?" "Take care of him." "And yourself too." "And if you need any help, feel free to come to me." "I'd be happy to help." "You used to weave Cashmere wool, right?" "For decades." "That's delicate work." "Yes." "For a weaver, your grip is rather strong." "I play tennis." "If you get time off from Panditji and chess... do join me." "We'll play" "What do you think of yourself?" "Sorry, sir." "You're suspended." "If such antics are repeated..." "Arrest him." "Understand?" "Understand?" " Yes, sir." "Sir." "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" "How about a game of chess?" "You were asleep." "Sorry, I didn't check the time." "Chess is a game of the clock, my friend... but there's no fixed time to play it." "Rubbish!" "Waking an old man at midnight, do you expect poetry?" "Come." "Here you go." "Listen to this song." "This was my wife Nee|ima's favorite song." "She would play it at every pariy and say..." ""Omkar, sing with me."" "Come beloved..." "let me take you amidst the stars." "Mr. Daanish... presenting..." "The Omkar Nath Special." "These special pieces are used only at pariies." "So why today?" "Because We're pariying today." "Today, you've become my friend." "Ask how?" "How?" "For the first time today..." "You didn't call." "Just rang the doorbell." "At midnight!" "Novv, the rules of this game." "If your pawn dies, you take a shot from it!" "Pick it up." "Come on!" "Let's raise a toast." "To our friendship!" "You know, nothing can beat sitting in a Russian bar... with a Russian woman and drinking Russian vodka!" "Ever been to Russia?" "No." "Me neither." "Make your move, Panditji." "Save your Knight." "This is getting bad." "This reminds me of a poem..." "There's no escaping the final sleep" "Then why, in worry, stay awake?" "So far from myself!" "stand, I don't feel my own heartache" "Aah!" "You knew this one!" "From Ghalib to Shakespeare, I memorized everything... for Ruhana." "I'll work some magic... to vvin back your queen of heads" "Checkmate!" "You're a quick learner." "You vvon." "No." "You vvon." "This game was about drinking." "Lose pawns, drink vodka!" "I only lost a couple." "But your entire army went down." "Now you know the Omkar Nath Special." "In this game... you vvin by losing." "Yes?" "Panditji?" "We're doing a play my daughter Nina wrote." "Your daughter, Noorie, was to play the pawn" "I'm sure you remember." "I hear dancing is your passion" "If you come and teach dance to the kids... it'll make Noorie and Nina happy." "I'm sorry." "I can't." "Ruhana, there's one more mother here who has lost her child." "Her daughter is alive, but has stopped living." "What you and I have suffered..." "Do not inflict that on your mother." "Don't kill her daughter." "Go, my child." "Hi!" "Maybe you can help me." "I'm looking for Nina's friend." "Nina told me to look for the quietest girl in the school." "She said that's her friend, Ruhi." "Do you know the quietest girl in this school?" "You seem rather quiet yourself." "What's your name?" "Ruhi." "Hi, Ruhi." "Nina often spoke of you..." "She said you love to draw." "Ever made a drawing of Nina?" "May |'_" "WOW!" "When Nina fell down the stairs, where were you?" "Ruhi, come with me." "Ruhi!" "10-minute break." "You blame Daanish for Noorie's accident." "He blames himself too." "When I visited your child's grave, I saw him there." "He was pointing his gun..." "at himself." "Like this!" "Had he succeeded, whom would you blame for that accident?" "My wife, Neelima." "She, too, was a victim of an accident." "I was driving on the freeway... with the world's most beautiful woman beside me." "I was speeding." "And she was laughing." "60 miles per hour..." "70... 80... 90... 100...110...120..." "The last sound I heard was of her laughter." "When Neelima passed away | hugged Nina and cried." "But when Nina died..." "I had no one." "When I look at you two..." "I feel you are so foriunate." "So foriunate... that you can at least hug each other and cry." "Darling... did this man come to meet you?" "Did he ask you anything?" "Did you tell him anything?" "Sure?" "If he ever visits you again... and you open your mouth... you know what dad will do, right?" "My sweet child." "Daanish!" "You better do something about that old man!" "You're busy punching here, while he's raising hell at the station." "He's very upset." "Nina's file was closed." "Mayl come in, sir?" "Here's your friend." "Daanish, they've closed Nina's file." "Daanish, get him to understand that his daughter Nina..." "That his daughter Nina Dhar, age 22... died due to falling down the stairs." "There were 19 stairs, and each stair was 7 inches." "Total height 133 inches." "I know these details by head." "After 13 months, 17 days and 8 hours... all that's changed in this file is the investigating officer's signature!" "The report states facts alone, Mr. Dhar." "What's the evidence you have?" "The evidence lies in Qureshi's eyes." "Mr. Omkar Nath Dhar, this is real life... not your game of chess." "You're right." "In chess, rooks and knights walk around..." "Not rabid dogs." "Daanish." " Sir." "Get him out of here..." "Or I will arrest him." "Sir." "Let's go, Panditji." "Come." "O Benefactor" "O Lord" "O Benevolent one" "O Lord" "Be my guide" "Show me the way" "Stay by my side Or /'II go astray" "O Lord..." "Be my guide Show me the way" "Stay by my side Or /'II go astray" "With empty palms, at Your door/ stand" "Seeking wisdom from Your generous hand" "Be my guide" "Show me the way" "Stay by my side Or /'II go astray" "D0 not torment me with doubt" "This answer!" "can't live without" "Papa..." "O Lord..." "To Your grace, I appeal, my friend" "If You shun me, it'll mean my end" "O Lord..." "Be my guide Show me the way" "O Lord..." "O Lord..." "O Lord..." "Show me the way" "O Lord..." "O Lord..." "Show me the way" "Show me the way" "Hello?" "Hello, Mr. Daanish!" "Mr. Daanish!" "Panditji!" "Panditji!" "Panditji!" "Hello." "Hello?" "Sada]!" "Panditji!" " Mr. Daanish!" "Here!" "Look what he's done." "He ran out that window." "I'll check." "Look what he's done." "Drink some water." " What happened?" "Wazir." "Wazir." "Wazir." "I was sleeping." "Suddenly..." "I heard a loud noise." "When I came out... there was fire" "My chessboard was burning." "A mere pawn... hurls a shoe?" "At the king?" "Now play chess with me." "Who are you?" "I could be anyone." "Oh yes!" "I could be the knight..." "Tick tock!" "Jumps between light  dark squares!" "Or the bishop." "Never walks straight!" "But I'm the biggest piece that all the others fear." "lam..." "Wazir!" "[The Queen piece]" "Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall" "Humpty Dumpty had a great fall" "All the king's horses and all the king's men" "Couldn 't put Humpty together..." "AGAIN!" "This is the hand that hurled the shoe, right?" "Does it hurl?" "The crippled pawn must remember... that one challenges only equals." "That's when you call it a game!" "If a pawn takes on the mighty King... he'll be crushed to death." "If you even look at Yazaad Qureshi again..." "I'll burn you alive!" "A bit darker under the eyes... thicker beard." "Take care." "Pammi, please see him out." " Yes." "Sir?" "Yeah, thank you." "Thank you." "Wazir." "I throw a shoe at Qureshi and he sends Wazir." "To him, I'm a crippled pawn." "He doesn't know that I too have a weapon." "My friend..." "If anything happens to me, my friend won't spare the king." "No harm will come to you." "I promise!" "Papa, please help me..." "Daanish Ali!" "Is my sketch haunting your dreams?" "Who's that?" " Don't you recognize me?" "I'm Wazir." "I heard your promise, "No harm will come to you"" "Are you sure?" "Open your email." "See?" "Making a bomb is so easy!" "I'm making one too..." "for your buddy." "A bomb - for a shoe!" "My men are watching QureshPs core team." "We must find Wazir." "Staﬂ tapping their phones." "Including QureshPs." "Daanish, are you crazy?" "Tap the Welfare Minister's phone?" "I want Wazir, Sada]." "Isn't it amazing!" "It's faster than the previous one!" "Hey, Daanish!" "Daanish!" "Do me a favour?" " Sure." "Please send a 'Thank-You' note." "To whom?" "To M r." "Wazi r!" "There are two sides of every coin." "Wazir burned my wheelchair..." "but that's how I got this new chair!" "You're a strange man." " I agree." "He cou|d've done something worse..." "Worst case scenario?" "I'd be dead." "Yeah, Sada]." "Where are you?" "With Panditji, at the hospital." "I've got the file of Yazaacfs tapped calls." "Can we meet?" " Sure." "Where?" "Brother, this is the first and last time... that I tap a Minister's calls." "If I get suspended too..." "We'll both be on the roads, selling..." "Burgers-on-the-go!" "Mr. Qureshi, I've received the money." "Sir, your tickets for Kashmir are booked." "Reservations done too." "Qureshi's going to Kashmir tomorrow." "Wazir speaking." "I'll tell SF'..." "Friday, 8pm." "Hauz Khas Garden." "Friday?" "That's today!" "Let's go!" "Move!" "Stop!" "On your knees!" "Raise your hands!" "Look up." "What's your name?" "Your name!" "Tushar." "Tushar." "Full name!" "Tushar Sharma." "Hello." "A little message is all it took to fool you!" "Where's my 'Thank-You' note?" "Didn't the old man ask you to send me one?" ""Hey Daanish!" "Daanish!"" ""Do me a favour?"" ""Please send a 'Thank-You' note."" "I was right there... watching you..." "but you didn't see me." "I'll kill you!" "What if I kill your buddy before that?" "Whafll happen to your promise then?" "If you want to save the old fool... stop tracking me." "And keep an eye on him!" "In Chess Land, there lived a tiny pawn." "All the chess pieces loved him." "But the pawn had one enemy - the evil king... who made the pawn cry." "Teary-eyed, the pawn went to..." "What's this message?" "I'm sorry I failed to look after our friend." "Will apologize personally in Kashmir." "Who is Qureshi talking about?" "Message sent on 24th November." "Who was in Delhi to meet him?" "Find out who came to meet Qureshi" "Oh!" " Noorie's favourite!" "You made them?" "I'll be right back." "Thanks for the cake!" "Storms of disasters fail to make me cry" "But a moment of your absence will flood my eye" "Have one." "Panditji says Wherever she is, it'll make her happy." "Go ahead." "Whether you say it or you don't" "My heart can hear..." "You're with me, my dear You're right here" "You're with me, my dear You're right here" "Thank you." "Huh?" "Thank you." "Thank you?" "What for?" "Ruhana spoke to me today." " Oh!" "I told you I'll work some magic." "What did you think?" "That Pandit was too drunk to remember his promise?" "My friend..." "Vodka turns me into an Einstein!" "Surely you can afford an occasional smile." "When the Creator asks me..." ""Omkar Nath Dhar..."" ""What did you achieve in the long life I gave you?"" "At least I can say..." ""Sir, I taught a friend to smile."" "Come beloved..." "let me take you amidst the stars" "The oldie keeps listening to this oldie." "Let me grant his wish... and send him to the stars." "Guess how?" "Like this." "One" "Two" "Three" "BOOM!" "Daanish." "Daanish." "Daanish!" "Sada], stay with Panditji." " Yes." "See this ticket." "Your pal is going to Kashmir..." "chasing the King." "Stop him." "Today, just his pawns blew up... but the next time..." "Get it?" "Khurana." " Yes, sir." "One moment." "So, packed everything?" "Sweater?" "Jacket?" "Took everything?" "It must be freezing there." "Where?" "Yes..." "I'm going to Kashmir." "What for?" "To hurl the other shoe?" "No." "This time, it won't be a shoe." "This is mybattle, Daanish." "It's for me to fight." "This WAS your battle..." "Now it's OURS!" "Pack your stuff." "Where are you taking me?" " To the safe house." "Where Wazir can't reach you..." "nor you Qureshi!" "I don't even know who I'm protecting here." "Ruhana, I'm dreading the food at that safe house." "Won't you treat me to a meal before I go?" "Of cou rse." "It'll be good karma." "And yes, I won't come alone." "I'll have company." "Ruhana, the food is absolutely delicious!" "You're such a charmer!" "It's your effect!" "What say, Daanish?" "You know... wheneverl look at you two... it reminds me of the olden times." "Thatwas the era of love." "Today, even the spelling of Love has changed to LUV." "In these frugal times, your love remains so generous." "Don't lose it." "Treasure it, like these pictures" "Whenever dust settles on them..." "Make sure to wipe it off" "I'm but a fraction, You make me whole" "In the game of love" "A lone heart can't win" "I too shall meet defeat" "My love, if you give in" "Whether you say it or you don't" "My heart can hear..."

"Game over, Daanish Ali." "Panditji!" "This endless cheering means only one thing..." "Yazaad Qureshi is about to speak." "As you can see, this enthusiasm... is a proof that... it'll be a record-breaking election." "For the first time in ages... the people of Kashmir are hopeful about elections." "Experts believe this will start a healthy debate... on many issues impodant to Kashmir." "When is the next flight to Kashmir?" " 9:30, sir." "One way or return?" "One way." "Dear Ruhana, the news of my death might reach you... before this letter." "I'm really sorry." "I failed to be a good father and husband..." "But!"

"I failed in this world... but in the next, I 'II take good care of our child." "Forever yours, Daanish." "Welcome." "SF' is expecting you." "Local police, army and his personal security." "It's a suicide mission." "If you can't help, just say it." "I didn't say that." "I'm just giving you the facts." "You saved my life once..." "I owe you." "But why all this?" "I want Wazi r." "And only Qureshi knows where he is." "Yazaad Qureshi is being honoured with the Peace Award." "Qureshi has emerged as the poster boy for peace" "He has swept the polls in Kashmir."
