Subedar Rattan Singh
- Subedar Rattan Singh: [Salutes] Subedar Ratan Singh reporting on duty sir.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: At ease Ratan Singh. Anti-tank guns. Just 2 RCL guns? Do they think that the enemy has just 2-4 tanks?
- Subedar Rattan Singh: Why just 2, sir? Let them have even 2-4 hundred. When Ratan Singh is here, you don't need to worry.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: Ratan Singh, you won't stop your hands and legs.
- Subedar Rattan Singh: Why not, sir? If the need arises then, I'll put my head on the tank to silence it, sir.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: Ratan Singh has not changed. Like always, you must be hungry.
- Subedar Rattan Singh: I'm starving. I can even make a tandoori chicken of the enemy's tank and eat it.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: [laughs] Go. Bhagiram is waiting.
- Subedar Rattan Singh: Bhagiram?
- [Ratan Singh salutes]
- Subedar Rattan Singh: A gun in your hand?
- Bhagiram (Cook): If a soldier will not have a gun in his hand then what else will he have?
- Subedar Rattan Singh: But I have always seen a spoon in this soldier's hand.
- Bhagiram (Cook): Hey! It is the greatness of that spoon only that you have eaten so much food and become so strong.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: [after the company falls in] Tonight is a test of our resolve. Coz the Indian Air Force cannot arrive before tomorrow morning, which leaves us with too much wait time.
- [Cautioning]
- Major Kuldeep Singh: Men, the enemy is right at our gates. We're 120, they've an entire tank regiment advancing. The command HQ has given us option to fall back and retreat. But they've left the final decision at my disposal. So hear it out, I, Major Kuldeep Singh, am NOT gonna leave my post. Your decision is yours. Whosoever wants to leave this post, is free to do so.
- Captain Bhairav Singh: Sir, I'd like to make my case first and foremost. Whether anybody stays or not, I am not leaving my motherland at the mercy of my enemy. It may cost me my life, but it can't force me to fall back.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: Bhairav Singh, you've spoken of giving your life to your country today, DONT ever again. Coz the testament of time is witness to the fact that nobody ever won a war by dying for his country, he won it by making the enemy die for its country.
- Naib Subedar Mathura Das: Even though my leave was sanctioned, I didn't return home Sir. I returned from halfway to fight the enemy alongside my company. Only to be told that command has ordered me to fall back ? I'd rather be executed than obey these orders.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: I understand your emotions Mathura Das. But command must've arrived at this conclusion after deep thinking for sure. We're 120, they're 2000.
- Subedar Rattan Singh: What difference does it make Sir. Guru Gobind Singhji Maharaj has always taught us that if the sparrow can face/off with the hawk, we're humans afterall.
- [Resonating the call of the men behind him]
- Subedar Rattan Singh: NOBODY is going anywhere.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: So should I take it that you shall all fight the enemy with me ?
- Captain Bhairav Singh, Naib Subedar Mathura Das, Subedar Rattan Singh: [alongside all the men] Yes Sir.
- Major Kuldeep Singh: If after this decision any man tries to leave the post, I'll shoot him. And God forbid, if I crumble and try running from this post, it's the order of your commanding officer you all will shoot me.
- Subedar Rattan Singh: [Roaring] Bole So Nihaal !
- Major Kuldeep Singh, Captain Bhairav Singh, Naib Subedar Mathura Das, Subedar Rattan Singh: [Roaring alongwith all the men as Pakistani tanks continue advancing] Sat Sri Akaal ! Soldier Of Waheguru, Victory Of Waheguru !
- Subedar Rattan Singh: [In a charged up tone] Men, man your guns !
- [All soldiers proceed into the trench, load their guns and position their aim at the Pakistani forces]
