Major Kuldeep Singh: [laughs madly]
Dharamvir: May I ask you a question if you don't mind, sir?
Major Kuldeep Singh: Tell me.
Dharamvir: There must be some difference between bravery and madness?
Major Kuldeep Singh: What you call madness comes from faith. And I have full faith that God decides life and death and God is with me, not with the enemy. Because I'm always immersed in Him.

Performed by Roop Kumar Rathod, Sonu Nigam, Chorus
A great film. I enjoyed it very much. I have watched several Indian films before and if I can find more like these then I can find a new film industry to keep an eye upon. The D.V.D. I saw was in stereo with English sub-titles. Over three hours long and highly entertaining. The violence content is high and a must for action fans and history buffs.
