They begin to pick up speed racing down the pier. A container truck is seen approaching from the opposite direction. The cavalcade reaches a crossroad. Aslam can barely keep his head up when he feels a huge impact. Glass shatters all around him. He feels his head spinning. He tries to focus, opens his eyes to see the car spinning out of control. The first car maneuvers away from the approaching truck, missing it by inches.
82. Aslam's car spinning out of control rams into the screeching container truck. The impact deploys the airbags as Bhanja falls forward. Aslam sees the stunned expression on Saleem Pathan's face. Then he sees the reason for their surprise. The reason for the impact. Rudra Pratap Singh spins his car deftly, gains control, rams into the last car. He shoots, taking out the driver, as the car looses control and finds itself in the water. Rudra staggers out of his car, takes aim, shoots the driver of Bhanja's car. He clambers over the roof of the car, pulls Bhanja out of the passenger window, attacks him. A fierce, angry and demonic Rudra pulverizes Bhanja. Bhanja tries to fight back, but Rudra doesn't stop. All he can see is the face of the killer. Saleem Pathan stumbles out of the car while Aslam struggles to try and reach the car door. Pathan rushes towards the pair, tries attacking Rudra from behind. He pulls Rudra by his hair, tries to hold him back. Rudra throws Saleem Pathan aside and begins attacking Bhanja mercilessly once again. The men from the other car shoot at him. Rudra dives, opens the back door, takes cover and aims. Aslam feebly tries to make his way towards Rudra. Saleem takes the opportunity to drag Bhanja out of his way. Bhanja recovering, tries to free himself off Pathan, hoping to try and get to Rudra. The men keep cover, firing randomly in Rudra's direction, as he aims to take them down. Saleem manages to throw Bhanja into the car, the men jump in and Pathan drives off. Rudra Pratap slumps against the side of the car, turns and is shocked to see Aslam, injured, hurt, sheepishly grinning at him. CUT TO:

EXT. BORDER AREA - DAY Rudra Pratap and Zoya start to walk with Goldman across. They see the outpost and India beyond. Then they hear it. The unmistakable sound of the Pakistani chopper with Raza. He sees the three of them trying to get across. They open fire. The bullets all around them. They know they have to continue to walk. In the distance Ashwini stands watching them approaching. His heart racing. They see him. Goldman sees him. Rudra pushes them all. Goldman. The Pakistani Chopper starts to circle back. They know he will not aim to scare and warn this time. They keep walking. PILOT I have a clear shot sir... Permission to fire... Raza keeps looking at them. His mind racing. The three of them wait for the volley of bullets. Ashwini also waits. PILOT (CONT'D) Sir... Permission to take them down... Raza hesitates again. They can see the border just paces in front of them.
114. Sir...
PILOT (CONT'D)
The pilot starts to fire. Raza pulls the trigger back. PILOT (CONT'D) Sir... We'll lo... RAZA (Holding the trigger) Let them go... They cross the border as Goldman takes one look at Raza and realises that he has been given up. CUT TO: 92
EXT. INDIAN BORDER AREA - DAY Ashwini watches the chopper leave, walks to the three of them. He looks at Goldman. ASHWINI Welcome back... Goldman starts to laugh. Slowly at first. Then raucously. Ashwini, Zoya and Rudra look at him. GOLDMAN Welcome back... (laughs) Yehi kehney ke liye kiya itna sab? Pachaas logon ke oopar zaaya ho gaye... Aapke is welcome back ke chakkar mein... Ashwini says nothing. GOLDMAN (CONT'D) Lee aaye naa yahan...? Khush? Ab photo voto khinchvaalo... Jaise shikari khinchvaate hain marey sher ke saath? They keep looking at him. GOLDMAN (CONT'D) Bhai INDIA'S MOST WANTED ko pakad laaye ho tum... Zoya looks at Rudra Pratap who keeps looking. GOLDMAN (CONT'D) hain... Kyon ki ek saal baad tumhe pata chalega ke Tihar, Arthur Road ya Yerwada jail se main vohi kar raha hoon jo Dubai, Jeddah ya Karachi mein kar raha tha... Rudra stares at Goldman.
115. GOLDMAN (CONT'D) Mumbai meri mashhoqa... Wapas toh main khud aana chahta tha... Baat bhi ki thi... (ponting to Ashwini) Sahab ko sab maloom hai... Confirm karlo, fauji... Aur yeh bhi pata kar lo ke kyon nahi aaya... Yahan ki sarkar chahti bhi hai ke main wapas aaoon? Maine tere Wali Khan se kaha tha naa ke sab bikte hain... Bas daam pata hona chahiye... Yeh sabak kahin bahar nahi... Yahin India mein... at Goldman. jahaan se achha Hindostan humara mein... (To Rudra) Kuch nahi hoga fauji... Kuch nahi hoga... Thokkney ka chance tha tere paas... Nahi thoka toone... Kyonki desh ki tarah tera bhi problem hai... Chance do sabko... Chahey woh neta ho... police ho... Main hoon ya... Voh chootiya jo camera ke aagey khadey hokey logon ko Churchgate station pe udaa raha tha... Kya kiya tum logon ne? Chaar saal khaatirdaari ki uski aur phir khush ho gaye ke phaansi chadha di... Arre chootiyon... Woh toh marne ke liye aaya tha... Use maarke kya khush ho rahe ho? (To Ashwini) Mere saath bhi wohi circus hogi... Arrest karoge... Channel pe panel bulaoge... Train mein baaten hongi... Breaking news pe sabun tel bikega... Barkha bolegi, Rajdeep bolega... Arnab Goswami chillayega... Phir sab thak jayenge aur main Big Boss chala jaunga... Jeet bhi jaunga... Aakhir Bhai hoon... Pata hai inaam ki rakam se kya karunga? Ek shaheed smarak banaoonga... Desh ke liye apni aur biwi bachon ki jaan dene waley chutiyon ke naam... Sabse upar naam hoga tere us Wali Khan ka... Do linein aur bhi likh doonga...`Saarey jahan se achcha... BANG BANG BANG. Zoya and Ashwini react. Goldman falls down. Both his knees blown to bits. The third bullet spreading venom through his right shoulder. Rudra Pratap slowly walks to him.
116. RUDRA PRATAP ...Hindustan hamara... He stands over the writhing body of Goldman. RUDRA PRATAP (CONT'D) Sach kaha tune... Sab sach... Bahut ghalatiyan ki hain humne... Ab bhi kar rahe hain... Par tu hamari sabse badi ghalati hai... Pressing the gun into the wound. Goldman screams, karenge...
RUDRA PRATAP
(CONT'D)
He pulls out the glasses from Goldman's face. RUDRA PRATAP (CONT'D) hue India ka chehra sabse pehle tu dekehga... He turns, fires one last bullet. Straight in the heart. Ashwini and Zoya watch the body lie motionless. GOLDMAN (V.O.) Sau saal baad mera bhi yehi haal hoga... Kya sach tha koi bata nahi payega... Sirf kahaniyan hongi... Jisko jo kahani achi lagegi, usi ko sach samjhega... Then a storm starts and a dune starts covering Goldman's body. They start walking away. ASHWINI (V.O.) Kora bhashan tha ya sach? yeh toh waqt hi batayega...
PBS 2 (PART 2) - Ref: RAW Theme They join Rudra Pratap as he walks to the jeep. All three sit in the jeep. No one speaks. ASHWINI (V.O.) (CONT'D) Lekin lagta hai naye Hindustan ka waqt aa gaya tha...
