"My sister Lucky!" "Meera in Russia found it!" "Found what?" "Lucky" "Your name is Lucky." "How come that's Lucky?" "Oh no, it's a four-leaf clover." "They say, it brings good luck" "You mean, it'll help me clear my examinations?" "Sure." "But it is effective only once" "If I find one like that, I'll pass the examinations this time... and give Papa a surprise." " Then take this one" "Really?" "I need it more than you do, because you pass every year" "Thank you, sis" "Okay... okay" "Now shall we...?" "Why do we've to go to school every day?"

"Nothing said, there's some official problem" "People are on the streets, rioting" "Anyway, we've nothing to do with it" "Here... your bag is packed" "Dhara, make it fast!" " Two minutes, Ma" "Lucky, sleep for a while, dear." "Get up early in the morning and study" "Mom" "Go to sleep, dear, or you will fall sick" "It's seven!" "Why didn't the alarm buzz?" "Get up, Dhara!" "Let me sleep, sis." "It's only 2" "It's 7!" "Get up, quick" "No good waking up, I'm going to flunk anyway" "Get up!" "Hush, sis!"

"Only one choice left" "I'll go with the security squadron to search for Adi" "No" "Unless..." "I get an assessment on the situation in the city..." "I won't allow anyone to step out of the embassy" "Before the communication lines jammed, we taped the bbc broadcast" "There's no news on the situation otherwise" "Play it quickly." " Mr Negi..." "This is terrible" "The terrorists have started attacking in the open." "Now what, sir?" "Where's the President?" "Any news?"

"We are three feet above the ground now" "If we drive further, we'll come back right here" "But then... we'll be six feet under the ground" "Then you won't be asking questions and I won't be answering any" "Now let me find out what problems those people fighting out there have" "It's got old." "Would you please open that door?" "Hang on" "Before you break it, let me try" "Well, what's the name of the girl who's sitting in my car?" "My name is Lucky" "I'm sorry." "Are you hurt?" "What were you saying?" " I said, my name is Lucky" "Pardon...?" "Lucky?" "Listen... seriously, are you Lucky?" "Lucky Negi" "Hear that?"

"I'm Aditya sekhri" "shake hands" "Don't worry, I'm not going to accept that hand forever" "Good" "Now how about getting down to work?" " Work?" "Yes." " What work?" "You want to go home, don't you?" "And your mummy isn't coming here to fix the radio so we got to do something." "Let's start?" "Come" "There are about 3000 Indians in this area." "And it is our prime duty... to protect all of them" " Mr sinha sir, we've begun the task of bringing them to the embassy" "Good." "Any problems on the way?" " No, sir" "No harm yet to the vehicles carrying the Indian tricolour" "That's very good." "Let's hope that it stays like that" "Excuse me, sir" "Your wife wants to see you." "It's urgent" "I'm busy." "Tell her, I'll see her in ten minutes" "Okay, sir" "Lucky..." " What happened to Lucky?" "Lucky hasn't returned from school yet" "Anjali!" "Right... right" "No!" "Left" "Left..." "left" "Right" "I mean, the left was right stay put" "What news?" "Stay there, I'll tell you" "Look Ms Lucky... see this... we are in Russia" "There's a clash between the government and the terrorists" "What all areas are under attack?" " We are here" "They are fighting here, here, here... everywhere" "Adi..." " Yes?" "A bee." " Kill it, or it'll sting you." "It'll hurt." " Kill it!" "Are you a fool?" "What is with you?" "Damn these school girls!" "I know, I was harsh." "Okay, I'm going c'mon, I'm going!" "How sweet!" "I'm hurt, but it is you who is crying" "Did you meet your boyfriend when you were crying?" "I don't have a boyfriend" "Really?" "You're lying" "All right, if you don't have a boyfriend, would you tell me... who gave you these "hicci"?" "Hiccups?" " Not hiccups, "hicci"" "Know what a love-bite is?" "Strange." "When I was in school we used to call love-bites "hicci"" "I don't know what they're called these days." "Whatever, but I'm sure... your boyfriend gave you that." " I don't have a boyfriend" "And may God never give me one!" "I just asked God for a miracle, because I didn't want to fail the exam" "But then, my bicycle's tyre went flat, and then I met that filthy man... who told me he'd fix my tyre." "But he tugged at my hair..." "Tugged at your hair?" "Why didn't you hit him?" "I did?" " How?" "With my lunch box" "very good, Lucky" "Tell me... how did you get into my car?" "The door was locked." " Right." "How did you unlock it?" "I tried using the cutter cutter?" "You keep a cutter with you, eh?" "Paper cutter" "And it unlocked?" " No" "Then?" " I used the compass" "And it gave in?" " No" "I got it." "Then you shoved the compass as well as the divider... into the lock and broke it." "Right?" " Right" "But it took all my strength" "Had you waited two more minutes, I'd have come and rescued you" "I don't have..." "Pardon...?" "If you could talk a little louder... a normal man like me would hear you" "I don't have a boyfriend." "I'm not those types" "Please believe me" "I've heard that several times before" "But I believe you" "Let's go shall we...?" "Adi, are we going home?" " We'll have to take the same way back" "And you know the situation." "Dead phones, dead radio..." "Do you have grandparents?" " No, they are dead" "Would you like to meet them?" "You wouldn't, right?" "So we'll have to stay here" "Thank you." " What for?" "I saw you thrash him" "Tell me... was that lunch box empty?" "Or full?" "Actually, I couldn't reach school, so..." "What's this?" "A hotel inside a school bag!" "Come here..." "I'm famished" "This way, please" "Official sources say that, as of now... the fight between the government and the rebels has come to a stop" "Indefinite curfew has been imposed in the central city and the suburbs citizens are requested not to step out of their houses" "Wonderful!" "Thank God I don't eat such food everyday." "Because if I did..." "I'd not be like this, I'd be a fatso" "Your mother cooked it, right?" "Ask me how I know" "How?" " Because every mummy cooks yummy food" "Won't you eat?" " I hope they won't mind" "They?" "Who?" "They" "They?" "Who?" " They" "Who?" "Who's here?" "I mean, we're sitting on a grave with food... it feels bad" "I see." "One second" "Peter. 1903" "The poor guy has been sleeping here since 1903" "He himself doesn't know when he died." "I don't think he'll get up... and say, "Hello." "I'm Peter." "When I was alive..."" ""my favourite dish used to be Indian." "Potato pancakes"" "still, if you insist, I'll invite him for dinner." "Okay?" "Peter, I'm Aditya sekhri." "And she is Lucky Negi" "Nice to meet you." "We want you to dine with us" "The food will be great, guaranteed" "If you still have those fingers, you will chew them up too" "Because the food comes from Lucky Inn chicken, or potatoes, pizza or bread... you're welcome to Lucky Inn, even if you are dead" "I'm to funny" "Well?" "Wasn't I funny...?" "I think I wasn't" "Well, I'm thirsty." "I'll get water from the jeep" "No, I have water here." "No need to go anywhere so hurry up" "One minute..." "Not water, it's only a sip of water" "Give it back if you don't want." " I'm drinking" "Looks like you'll have to spend the night with me." "Know what?" "Girls would do anything for such an opportunity" "I know." "The girls in my school... are willing to do anything for this opportunity" "The girls in your school are still talking about me?" "Not bad!" "I'm not history yet!" "Look, I belong to a well to do family, so the front seat is mine" "You take the backseat." "And here's your blanket" "What happened, Lucky?" "Why are you making noises under the blanket?" "I've never spent a night away from home" "I'm scared" "If it's because you are spending the night with me... don't be afraid at all" "Because I'm not those types" "Trust me" "Adi..." "I trust you" "Thank you, Ms Lucky Negi" "Go to sleep" ""come and hold me in your arms..."" ""I implore you"" ""I'm dying, my love"" ""come and take me in your arms..."" ""for my sake"" ""I'm dying, my love"" ""come and take me in your arms...""

"D'you intend to elope with Peter?" "Look Lucky, please don't do this" "I can't live without you." "I'll die without you!" "I beg of you, please don't dump me" "Now stop dreaming about Peter, it's too late in the night come and sleep, Ms Lucky Negi" "But sir, who's this man?" "Should be coming any moment." "See for yourself" "Only this person can find Adi and Lucky" "Greetings." " Greetings" "Any news of Lucky?" "Anjali..." "Hello, hi... no need for such formalities" "If I am not mistaken, you are the girl's father" "Right... but how do you know?" "That dejected look... and those dried up tears... under your eyes reveal your identity" "Handkerchief... wipe off those tears and distress" "A great man said, "Tears are nothing but salty water." "Wipe them off"" "No Mr Negi, I'm not mad" "And you can confirm that with the Ambassador" "My hand... four fingers and a thumb" "Kidnapping, robbery, bribery, rape and murder" "I've spent 17 years with the Intelligence service" "I've come across all kinds of criminals" "clench the fist... and there's no criminal activity" "Pindi Das Kapoor's fist has never opened... nor can anyone open it" "sir." " I trust you completely" "These are the pictures of Aditya and Lucky" "They are missing." "And we fear they might have... fear?" "What for?" "As long as a person is missing, he is alive" "If this can relieve you a bit, then let me tell you that... your daughter's bicycle has been found, in the forest near the school" "And Lucky?" "Any news of her?" "Belongs to her" "A great man once said..." ""No boundary, no power on earth can stop me..."" ""from uniting a mother and her daughter"" "Ms Lucky, tell me something" "Did you have a premonition of the war?" "You are fully prepared" "I hope you aren't a KGB agent?" " I was going to stay at sunaina's" "That's why I had packed my bags sunaina?" "Who?" "Oh yes." "Sunaina." "How's she?" "It's been long since we met" "As kids, we used to play together" "I'm hungry" "Last night I told you to eat, but you were worried about ghosts" "Wonderful" "Hi!" "I'm Aditya sekhri." "And you?" " I'm Lucky Negi strange." "Last night too I met one Lucky Negi" "But she wasn't like you one bit" "Do you know her?" " I used to" "History, eh?" "You forgot her so fast." "Would you forget me too?" "Hello, no need to get ideas." "I was only joking" "Let me go and arrange some food for you" "I know" "What's that for?" " To pluck apples" "I'm going with you." " No." "Stay here... and take care of my Queen Tullu" "Who will come here?" " Anyone" "Who?" " Anyone" "Look that way." " Why?" "Turn around!" "I feel shy, I need to take my underwear c'mon" "Today's school girls!" "Done." "And, also clean my car" "Where will I find you, Adi?" "You have a point" "I never thought of it." "Hold this" "If you want to find me, follow this." "Okay?" "Loosen your hold" "Why are you so worried about your car?" "You're always calling me a school girl" "And look at you!" "Always crying for it like a school boy" "It's only a car shut up!" "What's "Queen Tullu" about?" "I'm a king." "The eldest queen is called Queen Tullu so, of all my cars, she's my Queen Tullu" "I was born in her lap, in her lap I played... she has showed me around, she's been hurt several times because of me... but she never let any harm come to me." "So you see, she's my nanny" "I belong to a royal family" "Heard me?" "Yes" "General Anatoly is here to see you" "I asked him to sit outside, but he said he can't wait send him in" "You can't help me." "In fact, I've come to help you" ""Hey folks, try to recognise me..."" ""where I come from, who I am"" ""Who am I?"" ""Who am I?"" "P.D." "I bring news about Adi and Lucky" "Great" "An explosive factory was blasted yesterday" "A cop stopped Adi at a checkpost near the factory" "When the terrorists attacked, Adi slipped away" "Ever since, there's no news of him or his car" "But..." "No news is always good news" "There's another good news" "Lucky is with him" "Amazing!" "Where is she?" " With your son impossible" "With Adi?" "Why?" "I too want to know why" "But I know that they are together" "Good she is not alone." "Besides, Adi can speak Russian" "I'll inform Negi" "Only P. D can trace them, I told you" "In my worries for Lucky, I doubted P. D's capabilities, sir" "Another in your place too would've been surprised by his antics" "Where is he?" "Got a screwdriver?" "P.D.?" "But in such a short time..." " How did I change the mask?" "I'll tell you that in leisure" "I got to go to the telephone exchange." " What for?" "If Adi has a cellphone, I'll talk to him and find out where they are" "But all the phone lines are dead, sir" "Who said they can't be fixed for just five minutes?" "A great man once said..." ""small things like these happen always in great cities"" "Over here" "How did you get there?" " Peter helped me" "Hungry?" "If you are a vegetarian, eat this." "Else..." "Phone... phone My phone buzzed!" "Hello Aditya sekhri here" "I have only five minutes so don't ask questions, just answer me" "The Ambassador, your father, asked me to trace you" "Are you okay?" " Yes" "Are you hurt?" " No" "Good" "How's Lucky?" " How did you...?" "No questions, I said" "How's Lucky?" " Fine" "Now tell me, where are you folks?" "Indulos Kaya graveyard" "That's it I'm coming." "Stay put" "I'll be there within an hour." " All right" "shall we go home?" "Actually, we can stare into each other's eyes and sit here all day... but there's a small hitch." "The fishes can't get fried on their own so if you don't mind, would you get some firewood like a good girl?" "For fire?" " That's right" "I've sent Peter to fetch a microwave" "But in the meantime, we'll have to make adjustments" "The lighter is in the car, hurry up" "Take the water-bottle." "It's there, to your right" ""He will come..."" ""he, who has to come, will come"" "sorry sunaina, I like Adi" "sunaina, I like your friend" "I think, I love him" "But she is a little too young" "Lucky!" "Don't drink the water" "Lucky!" "Don't drink the water." "It's poisoned!" "Lucky!" "Don't drink the water" "I'm sorry, it was my mistake." "The water was laced" "No..." "No Lucky..." "Oh... my God!" "Please help" "Help" "I had promised Lucky... that I'd take her to the safety of her house" "Not to the Heavens." "Help..." " Need help?" "Are you Indian?" "Half" "You need a doctor?" " Yes" "What's happened to her?" " She drank the water here so have they, too." " I know" "That's why she needs to be rushed to a doctor" "What can you give?" "Oh, sure" "It's too little" "My cell-phone." "This is all I have" "And that necklace...?" "It isn't mine." "If it were mine, I'd surely have given it to you" "Is the car yours?" "Yes, it's mine so make up your mind." "The girl?" "Or the car?" "Queen, please go with him." "I'll bring you back" "But if she goes away, I won't ever be able to bring her back" "forgive me, please" "How do you know my son?" " Son?" "Yes, the one who brought you here is my son" "Are you an Indian?" " Yes" "I'm Indian, too." " Thank God for that" "You..." "love her very much?" "Give me some water, will you?" "I wonder how many innocent lives this war will claim" "That's it" "Will she be all right?" " She has been given medication" "Now pray that..." ""Listen..."" ""O pretty one, listen to me...""

"Excuse me, Ma'am." "Mr Negi wants to see you" "He's waiting for you in the Ambassador's office" "Dhara... stay right here." "I'll be back soon" "Get out!" "Get going!" "Go on!" " What are you saying?" "The police are searching every house for the terrorists!" "You know how seriously ill Lucky is." "If I take her away, she'll surely die!" "But I'll land in trouble if they find you in my house!" "They're scouring every house for the terrorists!" "But they're looking for terrorists!" "And we are not terrorists, are we?" "I'm the Indian Ambassador's son!" " How will you prove that you are... the Indian Ambassador's son?" " With just a telephone call" "Telephone call?" "All telephone lines have been cut off!" "Doctor..." " What doctor?" "Do you have a passport to prove your identity?" "They're going to drag you away and dump you in a dark cell!" "And the two of you will rot there until this war is over!" "And that might take 5 years, 10 years or even twenty!" "Take this... and get going" "All right." "I'll go away" "But I'll really be grateful to you if you let Lucky stay here" "It's terribly cold out there, doctor." "She won't be able to survive" "I had promised to take her home to safety" "Please... please, doctor?" "What do you want me to do?" "Beg you...?" "Fall at your feet?" "Stand before you with folded hands?" "I'm willing to do that, too" "Please... it's just a matter of a few days" "I don't want any arguments with you I told you... just go away sticking a few Indian movie posters on your walls... does not make you an Indian!" "Doctor, an Indian is one who will burn his own house... to protect others." "Thank you" "What happened to you?" "Are we going to a party?" "Now you're crying." "You'll go home and say, I only made you cry" "Why're you crying?" "Huh?" "Am I crying...?" "I'm here with you" "forgive me, my child" "My daughter is also as old as you are" "If I didn't worry for her safety..." "I'd never have let the two of you leave this place in this manner" "But what can I do?" "An Indian has been let down by a father today" "But I pray that wherever you live, you are always safe and sound" "Adi..." "I've just had a telephone conversation with the Minister of External Affairs... in India, and we have reached the conclusion... that all of you will be evacuated to India at the earliest" "Because... because the situation is worsening beyond control" "In the next 12 hours, all the families that are here in the Indian embassy... will be taken to the airport under special security convoys" "With great difficulty, we have arranged for an aircraft... and it's this aircraft that will take you folks to New Delhi" "sir, sir... how can we leave everything and go away like this?" "It took me 12 years to set up my business here and... you want me to leave it in 12 hours?" "Lt'll destroy my efforts of a lifetime!" "I'll be ruined, sir!" " Mr Agarwal... if you live, you will be able to work hard again" "But if you stay here, you may not even live, Mr Agarwal" "But are we going to be re-established here... once the situation has normalised?" "Even if you do return, do you expect to find things as they were earlier?" "It would be better for us to forget about this nation" "God... ghosts haunt places like this" "scared me" "Why's everything so huge in here?" "No worse place to spend the night." "What do you think, Lucky?" "Lucky..." "Lucky!" "Oh my God!" "Hypothermia!" "Once she sleeps, I've had it!" "Lucky... wake up!" "Open your eyes!" "Good." "Let me go to sleep."

"15 hours from now, the last plane will take off from the airport here" "Orders are to airlift all Indians living here to Delhi" "A friend of mine is an officer in the Russian army" "His battalion will be leaving this place in just a little while" "In this uniform, we will look a part of his battalion" "And this is the safest way of making it to the airport" "And my Papa...?" "Is he leaving me and going away?" "He will leave you and go away if you don't get to the airport on time" "And as long as Pindi Das Kapoor is around..." "I just can't see how you won't make it to the airport" "God doesn't work his miracles every now and then" "My child, as the wise old saying goes..." ""He who is protected by the Lord, no one can ever slay"" "Let me see!" "You look like a baby sikh!" "So all right." "From Lucky, let me turn her into Lakhan singh" "A true son of Punjab now!" "That's something!" "Let's go, comrade." "Shall we...?" "Two miles away to the north is a railway station" "That's where we've got to take a train from" "It's tricky territory" "There's also the frozen sea ahead." "But if we stick to this battalion... we won't face any danger" "Keep marching on quietly." "I'll go and take a look ahead" "Hey midget... however high you wear the helmet, you're still going to be the midget!" "Hungry...?" "What's this?" " Meat" "I can't eat this." " Why not?"

" Put your hands up" "Whatever they ask, just say "Da"" ""Da" means yes" "Adi, what did he say?" "He wants us to prepare ground plans of the army-base for him" "But we know nothing of that." " Give it to me" "What sketches are you making?" " This is what I'm going to give him" "Maybe this will save us" "No... no!" "Snatch that gun!" "Get behind me, Lucky!" "Are you okay...?" " Adi!" "Hurry up" "I'll go and check on PD!" "Make it quick, Adi!" "PD's not in the truck, Lucky!" "He's not at the wheels!" "What happened to him?" "See that place...?" "Jump!"

"He's gone missing, too" "Do you think I'm not worried at all?" "But for how long are we going to deny the fact that... it's difficult for them to survive on those streets out there?" "Sir, for me, my daughter will be alive till such time... as I find her body" "You may go, if you wish to." "But I'm staying here" "Negi, you can't stay here." "You were sent here by the Indian government... which has now decided that all Indians must go back" "To carry out the orders is our responsibility and duty!" "In that case, I tender my resignation right now, sir" "Think about your wife and Dhara" "Don't you have any responsibilities towards them?" "If you stay on, you're going to die" "Do you want your wife to be widowed?" "And your little girl Dhara..." "Ioses the support of her father and her sister, in just a moment?" "I give you my word."
