1
00:00:34,375 --> 00:00:36,000
The Kingdom of Punjab

2
00:00:36,083 --> 00:00:38,875
stretched from British-held India
to the south,

3
00:00:38,958 --> 00:00:43,791
from Afghanistan in the west,
to Tibet in the east.

4
00:00:43,875 --> 00:00:47,583
This mighty kingdom,
led by an astute statesman,

5
00:00:47,666 --> 00:00:49,875
Maharaja Ranjit Singh.

6
00:00:49,958 --> 00:00:53,250
Fearsome, fearless and feared,

7
00:00:53,458 --> 00:00:57,708
he was known as the lion of Punjab.

8
00:00:58,458 --> 00:01:02,041
Ranjit Singh's death was followed
by many years of power struggle

9
00:01:02,125 --> 00:01:06,083
amid the brutal murders of his heirs.

10
00:01:06,875 --> 00:01:12,500
His youngest son, Duleep Singh,

11
00:01:12,583 --> 00:01:17,791
was crowned at the age of five.

12
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,541
The British drove the final nail
into the Sikh kingdom

13
00:01:22,166 --> 00:01:24,875
by removing him from his throne
and his mother.

14
00:01:24,958 --> 00:01:27,833
They did not kill him.

15
00:01:27,916 --> 00:01:31,541
They exiled him
from his people and his land.

16
00:01:31,625 --> 00:01:33,791
This is his story.

17
00:01:39,583 --> 00:01:43,666
May the winds of your sails
take you across smooth waters

18
00:01:44,250 --> 00:01:48,500
and your life henceforth
in the hands of Lord Jesus.

19
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:50,916
He is an impressionable young boy.

20
00:01:51,541 --> 00:01:54,875
His studies in the Christian doctrine
are going splendidly well.

21
00:01:55,125 --> 00:01:57,125
The Maharaja will be one of us.

22
00:01:57,750 --> 00:02:00,708
Receive on thy forehead
the sign of the Holy Cross.

23
00:02:00,791 --> 00:02:03,166
Openly profess
the faith of Christ crucified.

24
00:02:03,250 --> 00:02:05,875
I baptize you in the name of the Father,

25
00:02:06,291 --> 00:02:10,750
and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

26
00:02:34,916 --> 00:02:37,166
Do put a little smile on your face, sir.

27
00:02:37,791 --> 00:02:39,583
That painting is going in the Grand Room

28
00:02:39,666 --> 00:02:40,916
and will be looked at
for hundreds of years.

29
00:02:41,708 --> 00:02:45,500
You wouldn't want people to think of you
as a miserable and unhappy boy.

30
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,541
And do get on with it, Franz.

31
00:02:49,625 --> 00:02:52,375
Everyone is waiting
for my handsome prince!

32
00:02:56,416 --> 00:02:57,541
Your Majesty.

33
00:02:58,250 --> 00:03:01,708
Dr. Logun,
I relinquish to you, your responsibility.

34
00:03:02,333 --> 00:03:04,750
In all honesty, I do hate to let you go.

35
00:03:04,833 --> 00:03:07,125
I was rather looking forward
to showing you off.

36
00:03:07,625 --> 00:03:09,958
But Dr. Login,

37
00:03:10,250 --> 00:03:12,416
I gather, has some other plans in mind.

38
00:03:12,500 --> 00:03:14,333
I am truly indebted to you, Your Majesty.

39
00:03:14,416 --> 00:03:16,708
Don't be such a pushover, Dr. Login.

40
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,708
Enjoy this enchanting music. Have a drink.

41
00:03:20,791 --> 00:03:24,250
There's someone I would like you to meet.

42
00:03:24,333 --> 00:03:25,291
Go on, Duleep.

43
00:03:25,916 --> 00:03:29,458
I can see there are many young ladies
eagerly awaiting your company.

44
00:03:30,041 --> 00:03:32,708
Come, come.
It's not polite to keep people waiting.

45
00:03:33,375 --> 00:03:34,583
Your Majesty.

46
00:03:36,875 --> 00:03:37,875
Good evening.

47
00:03:39,583 --> 00:03:40,583
So…

48
00:03:41,708 --> 00:03:44,333
Now, let's see.

49
00:03:44,500 --> 00:03:47,333
Surely, amongst all
these beautiful young ladies,

50
00:03:47,416 --> 00:03:50,208
there's one fit enough
to bear your children, my son?

51
00:03:53,958 --> 00:03:56,333
Now that is the someone
I want you to meet.

52
00:04:54,083 --> 00:04:55,041
Are you well, sir?

53
00:05:03,500 --> 00:05:06,500
Splendid shot, sir. You have your kill.

54
00:05:07,458 --> 00:05:08,916
Not good enough, Arur.

55
00:05:09,708 --> 00:05:12,250
Still only the fourth-best in the country.

56
00:05:12,625 --> 00:05:15,291
With time, you will be number one, sir.

57
00:05:15,666 --> 00:05:18,708
There is much to hunt
in these forests of Britannia.

58
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:00,583
My boy!

59
00:06:01,375 --> 00:06:02,833
My prince!

60
00:06:03,375 --> 00:06:05,916
No, do leave that to others, Duleep.

61
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,375
Objects break.

62
00:06:07,750 --> 00:06:10,250
In particular,
those that are rather fragile.

63
00:06:10,333 --> 00:06:11,583
Do follow me.

64
00:06:12,500 --> 00:06:15,000
And broken, of course,
they are of no value.

65
00:06:22,250 --> 00:06:24,708
Such comfort in the house of our Lord.

66
00:06:25,875 --> 00:06:27,583
Do you feel that, Duleep?

67
00:06:31,708 --> 00:06:32,625
Is it, Duleep?

68
00:06:34,458 --> 00:06:35,291
Yes. It is.

69
00:06:35,458 --> 00:06:38,291
Come. Pray with me, Duleep.

70
00:07:35,250 --> 00:07:37,083
What troubles you, Duleep?

71
00:07:37,750 --> 00:07:39,458
What bears so heavy on your heart?

72
00:07:42,708 --> 00:07:43,625
Tell me.

73
00:07:45,291 --> 00:07:47,458
Speak with the will of your freedom.

74
00:07:48,041 --> 00:07:49,625
- Freedom?
- Yes,

75
00:07:49,958 --> 00:07:51,375
you are a free man.

76
00:07:51,875 --> 00:07:53,041
As are we all.

77
00:07:54,083 --> 00:07:54,916
Yes.

78
00:07:56,166 --> 00:07:57,208
A royal subject.

79
00:08:01,958 --> 00:08:04,708
Yes, but with the immunity of full freedom
to speak from your mind.

80
00:08:05,041 --> 00:08:06,291
You have full freedom.

81
00:08:08,791 --> 00:08:10,458
I have to see my mother.

82
00:08:13,416 --> 00:08:15,583
I feel your desire, son.

83
00:08:16,166 --> 00:08:18,375
But it may not be well taken

84
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,750
by those who have toiled so painstakingly

85
00:08:21,833 --> 00:08:24,625
to take care of your person
and your every need.

86
00:08:28,541 --> 00:08:30,291
What good can it do?

87
00:08:30,541 --> 00:08:33,791
Everything Lady Login and myself
have labored to provide for you,

88
00:08:34,291 --> 00:08:36,708
and that, with such profound love,

89
00:08:37,125 --> 00:08:39,291
compassion and understanding
of your every need,

90
00:08:39,375 --> 00:08:40,583
would come to naught.

91
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,041
And because of your actions,
you risk losing everything.

92
00:08:44,250 --> 00:08:46,958
Being reduced to living like a commoner

93
00:08:47,291 --> 00:08:48,708
- among all the people…
- People?

94
00:08:49,583 --> 00:08:50,625
What people?

95
00:08:55,958 --> 00:08:58,166
Lady Login has been
more than a mother to you,

96
00:08:59,041 --> 00:09:01,833
and I have given you the love of a father.

97
00:09:02,250 --> 00:09:04,041
As I felt it in my heart.

98
00:09:05,541 --> 00:09:08,750
Your mother was not capable of your care.

99
00:09:09,041 --> 00:09:11,833
We all did what we felt was best for you.

100
00:09:11,916 --> 00:09:12,958
But, I want to see her.

101
00:09:14,875 --> 00:09:16,708
There is so much that troubles me.

102
00:09:17,208 --> 00:09:18,708
I have questions that remain unanswered.

103
00:09:19,083 --> 00:09:20,416
- I understand…
- Please!

104
00:09:21,500 --> 00:09:22,583
Please make this possible.

105
00:09:25,958 --> 00:09:27,750
I don't even know where she is.

106
00:09:30,958 --> 00:09:32,000
Help me.

107
00:09:34,916 --> 00:09:37,333
Why now, after all these years?

108
00:09:37,833 --> 00:09:39,625
The boy is all grown and young.

109
00:09:39,708 --> 00:09:42,708
He has questions
that we do not have the answers for.

110
00:09:44,708 --> 00:09:46,208
Where is she?

111
00:09:47,375 --> 00:09:48,291
In Nepal.

112
00:09:48,833 --> 00:09:50,708
Old, sick,

113
00:09:50,791 --> 00:09:53,000
and I believe she's losing her sight.

114
00:09:54,500 --> 00:09:56,083
So, not much of a danger anymore.

115
00:09:57,458 --> 00:09:58,875
Her days of rebellion are over.

116
00:10:04,291 --> 00:10:06,000
Let him see his mother.

117
00:10:07,333 --> 00:10:10,125
Leave the rest to our mighty Lord.

118
00:10:10,333 --> 00:10:13,000
There's a lion that sleeps
in the heart of that boy.

119
00:10:13,708 --> 00:10:17,916
I'm afraid if awakened,
the roar may be unbearable.

120
00:11:31,375 --> 00:11:33,333
I welcome you to India.

121
00:11:34,750 --> 00:11:39,458
I receive you with full honors
befitting your status.

122
00:11:40,750 --> 00:11:41,750
Thank you.

123
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,500
However, I do request

124
00:11:44,750 --> 00:11:47,833
that we keep this visit
to its agreed-upon purpose.

125
00:11:48,250 --> 00:11:51,333
I am just here to see my mother,
Lord Canning.

126
00:11:52,541 --> 00:11:53,583
Thank you.

127
00:11:53,833 --> 00:11:58,125
And if there is anything that I can do
to make your visit here

128
00:11:59,541 --> 00:12:02,041
as comfortable as it needs to be,

129
00:12:02,666 --> 00:12:04,583
please do let me know.

130
00:12:15,250 --> 00:12:17,166
They seem to be afraid of something.

131
00:12:27,708 --> 00:12:29,625
Please, this way, sir.

132
00:13:07,250 --> 00:13:08,166
Duleep?

133
00:13:13,083 --> 00:13:13,958
Yes.

134
00:13:27,708 --> 00:13:29,416
In my wait for you,

135
00:13:30,291 --> 00:13:32,500
my eyes have betrayed me.

136
00:13:37,875 --> 00:13:39,875
So many tears have been shed.

137
00:13:41,541 --> 00:13:45,708
And now, I can't even see you well.

138
00:13:46,708 --> 00:13:50,083
The one for whom I have longed,
for so many years…

139
00:13:52,833 --> 00:13:56,583
Now you're in front of me
and I can't even see you clearly.

140
00:14:55,541 --> 00:14:58,458
They have changed you so much.

141
00:15:02,666 --> 00:15:04,458
Not the same royal son

142
00:15:05,458 --> 00:15:09,291
who was stolen from me 14 years ago.

143
00:15:11,166 --> 00:15:15,708
I didn't know I could feel so much pain.

144
00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:19,416
I have not only lost a kingdom,

145
00:15:21,125 --> 00:15:23,416
I have lost my son as well.

146
00:15:25,500 --> 00:15:26,875
Time can be so cruel…

147
00:15:28,791 --> 00:15:31,166
and destiny, an inevitable foe.

148
00:15:33,875 --> 00:15:38,333
We were kings once, and we had a kingdom.

149
00:15:51,500 --> 00:15:55,250
Tell me about England and your home.

150
00:15:56,625 --> 00:15:58,208
It's cold most of the time.

151
00:15:59,416 --> 00:16:01,958
Dim, cloudy weather.

152
00:16:04,208 --> 00:16:07,791
Besides summertime,
you really don't see the sun very much.

153
00:16:08,541 --> 00:16:09,875
But, I have heard

154
00:16:10,291 --> 00:16:13,458
that the sun
never sets on the British Empire.

155
00:16:15,666 --> 00:16:17,916
- But, it is very beautiful.
- The people?

156
00:16:19,625 --> 00:16:21,166
Everybody is really good to me.

157
00:16:22,333 --> 00:16:25,208
God-fearing, honest…

158
00:16:26,916 --> 00:16:27,750
kind-hearted people.

159
00:16:28,750 --> 00:16:29,791
Kind?

160
00:16:32,833 --> 00:16:34,166
Are the people in England

161
00:16:34,708 --> 00:16:38,333
different from the ones
I have come to know?

162
00:16:43,208 --> 00:16:44,291
It's not just them.

163
00:16:46,041 --> 00:16:48,791
Some of our own people
turned out to be traitors, too.

164
00:16:52,666 --> 00:16:54,125
Your father, the king,

165
00:16:55,333 --> 00:16:58,416
worked hard to keep them all united.

166
00:17:00,125 --> 00:17:01,750
The Lion of Punjab

167
00:17:02,083 --> 00:17:05,916
built the kingdom straw by straw.

168
00:17:09,541 --> 00:17:13,333
His pyre hadn't even simmered down yet…

169
00:17:14,041 --> 00:17:15,958
and members of the Royal Court

170
00:17:16,416 --> 00:17:18,916
had already started plotting
to take over the kingdom.

171
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,750
The British were waiting at our borders,
watching us like vultures.

172
00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:28,458
They had already taken
India in their grip.

173
00:17:28,750 --> 00:17:30,541
Only Punjab was left.

174
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,708
And it was the most valuable to them.

175
00:17:34,083 --> 00:17:35,708
The English knew

176
00:17:35,791 --> 00:17:39,666
they could finally launch
a decisive strike.

177
00:17:49,750 --> 00:17:53,333
Tell me about the Queen… Victoria.

178
00:17:53,916 --> 00:17:55,083
Is she beautiful?

179
00:17:57,416 --> 00:17:59,500
- She's white.
- Yes,

180
00:18:00,250 --> 00:18:01,625
obviously she's white,

181
00:18:02,041 --> 00:18:05,833
but… not beautiful. Am I right?

182
00:18:06,958 --> 00:18:08,833
She says that I'm very good-looking.

183
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,000
And pleasing to the heart.

184
00:18:12,833 --> 00:18:14,541
She really admires my eyes a lot.

185
00:18:16,416 --> 00:18:18,583
She calls me "Black Prince."

186
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:21,416
You're not a prince.

187
00:18:22,333 --> 00:18:23,375
You're a king.

188
00:18:24,375 --> 00:18:26,083
She treats me very well.

189
00:18:27,458 --> 00:18:29,708
You were born to be a king.

190
00:18:30,541 --> 00:18:33,250
And a king you became, my son.

191
00:18:37,375 --> 00:18:41,208
Don't you realize what has taken place?

192
00:18:47,666 --> 00:18:50,375
Lahore was awash with blood.

193
00:18:51,125 --> 00:18:53,416
The price was dear.

194
00:18:54,916 --> 00:18:59,125
Your father's eldest son,

195
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,916
Kharak Singh, ascended to the throne.

196
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,291
But his queen, Rani Chand Kaur,
had bigger ambitions.

197
00:19:06,375 --> 00:19:10,500
She wanted to make her son,
Nau Nihal, the King of Punjab.

198
00:19:12,750 --> 00:19:14,583
Nau Nihal became our ruler.

199
00:19:14,958 --> 00:19:18,166
However, his reign only lasted a day,

200
00:19:18,250 --> 00:19:20,625
as he was crushed under a falling gate

201
00:19:20,708 --> 00:19:22,958
while coming back
from his father's funeral.

202
00:19:24,375 --> 00:19:27,125
Now, Rani Chand Kaur was bathing,

203
00:19:27,208 --> 00:19:29,875
when her servants strangled her to death.

204
00:19:33,541 --> 00:19:38,083
Sher Singh, Maharaja's second son in line,
was placed on the throne

205
00:19:38,625 --> 00:19:42,000
with the Khalsa's blessing
and full backing.

206
00:19:46,708 --> 00:19:47,541
Don't stop.

207
00:19:48,666 --> 00:19:51,958
Sir, are you sure you want to know?

208
00:19:54,458 --> 00:19:55,291
Yes.

209
00:19:58,458 --> 00:20:00,833
Maharaja Sher Singh
was watching wrestling,

210
00:20:00,916 --> 00:20:01,958
something he enjoyed immensely.

211
00:20:13,083 --> 00:20:14,166
Who was it?

212
00:20:15,333 --> 00:20:17,041
Ajit Singh Sandhawalia.

213
00:20:17,750 --> 00:20:19,916
He declared himself the Vizier,

214
00:20:20,625 --> 00:20:24,000
and you… the king.

215
00:20:26,166 --> 00:20:28,000
You did not tell me this before.

216
00:20:29,250 --> 00:20:30,958
I didn't think it mattered.

217
00:20:32,875 --> 00:20:34,791
It wouldn't have changed anything.

218
00:20:47,375 --> 00:20:50,166
We are a foolish nation, the Sikhs.

219
00:20:51,583 --> 00:20:54,375
We threw away
the most important gift of the Guru

220
00:20:55,375 --> 00:20:56,416
because of greed.

221
00:20:57,291 --> 00:21:01,583
The thing he beckoned us
to do away with, we embraced,

222
00:21:02,458 --> 00:21:03,666
and lost his kingdom.

223
00:21:22,750 --> 00:21:24,833
We apologize for bothering you
so early in the morning,

224
00:21:25,416 --> 00:21:26,583
but we need to talk to you as well.

225
00:21:27,416 --> 00:21:28,250
That's all right.

226
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,541
- Tell me, what is it?
- We wish to meet the King.

227
00:21:46,041 --> 00:21:46,916
How many of them?

228
00:21:48,291 --> 00:21:49,500
A small battalion.

229
00:21:50,625 --> 00:21:52,708
Yes, many more, it's not far from here.

230
00:21:54,166 --> 00:21:57,541
- They wish to have counsel with you.
- I wish to meet them, too.

231
00:21:58,500 --> 00:21:59,500
Sir…

232
00:21:59,791 --> 00:22:02,250
the British are watching our every move.

233
00:22:04,083 --> 00:22:06,208
It could be seen as treason.

234
00:22:10,333 --> 00:22:13,791
Whatever I had,
the English took everything.

235
00:22:15,375 --> 00:22:18,833
All my possessions, one by one.

236
00:22:19,708 --> 00:22:22,166
My jewelry, my clothes.

237
00:22:22,958 --> 00:22:25,916
My dignity and honor,
all tossed into the dirt.

238
00:22:26,708 --> 00:22:30,166
Now I'm going to their country
to live among them.

239
00:22:32,833 --> 00:22:34,750
Do you see the irony in that, Duleep?

240
00:22:36,750 --> 00:22:37,583
Maharani Ji?

241
00:22:39,208 --> 00:22:41,041
The carriage has arrived and is waiting.

242
00:22:41,916 --> 00:22:43,333
It can wait…

243
00:22:44,541 --> 00:22:46,000
until I give the order.

244
00:22:48,958 --> 00:22:49,916
Yes.

245
00:22:53,791 --> 00:22:55,416
I'm very tired.

246
00:22:57,291 --> 00:22:59,666
I don't have the strength
to fight anymore.

247
00:23:02,166 --> 00:23:03,250
Duleep…

248
00:23:08,416 --> 00:23:10,166
don't become like me.

249
00:23:11,166 --> 00:23:14,416
You have the blood of the Lion of Punjab
running through your veins.

250
00:23:15,458 --> 00:23:17,583
Carve your own destiny.

251
00:23:29,708 --> 00:23:34,166
Blessed shall be those
who praise the True and Timeless One!

252
00:23:53,083 --> 00:23:54,750
They are soldiers
of the Sikh kingdom, Duleep.

253
00:23:55,333 --> 00:23:57,458
They need a leader

254
00:23:57,916 --> 00:24:00,666
who can lead them to freedom.

255
00:24:37,500 --> 00:24:38,750
Maharani Jindan.

256
00:24:40,625 --> 00:24:41,750
Yes, Your Highness.

257
00:24:41,833 --> 00:24:44,333
I pray your stay here
will be comfortable and warm

258
00:24:44,416 --> 00:24:48,208
as I welcome you to the shores of England.

259
00:24:49,541 --> 00:24:51,583
Yes, Your Highness, it is.

260
00:24:51,666 --> 00:24:55,416
- And her health?
- Much better now, Your Highness.

261
00:24:57,333 --> 00:24:58,708
Come, join me for tea.

262
00:25:00,833 --> 00:25:04,000
- She talks a lot.
- She invited us for tea.

263
00:25:04,666 --> 00:25:08,958
We've come from so far away
and she is just serving us tea?

264
00:25:12,958 --> 00:25:15,041
I have seen these before.

265
00:25:17,958 --> 00:25:21,125
I drank tea from these cups before.

266
00:25:21,458 --> 00:25:23,625
I hope you are enjoying the tea,
Rani Jindan.

267
00:25:24,625 --> 00:25:26,166
I am rather fond of it.

268
00:25:27,583 --> 00:25:31,416
Looks like these cups
have been stolen from us.

269
00:25:33,208 --> 00:25:35,166
She says the tea is good.

270
00:25:36,541 --> 00:25:39,000
And familiar too, Your Highness.

271
00:25:55,416 --> 00:25:59,416
I must excuse myself.
Do please enjoy the tea.

272
00:26:14,625 --> 00:26:15,458
Where did she go?

273
00:26:16,291 --> 00:26:18,000
She didn't even offer us any food.

274
00:26:19,166 --> 00:26:20,833
We were only invited to tea.

275
00:26:25,416 --> 00:26:28,500
I see the medicine I sent you
has done you well, Maharani.

276
00:26:29,625 --> 00:26:33,416
The taste of this food is so different
from the flavor of the food in Punjab.

277
00:26:33,916 --> 00:26:34,750
Do you agree, Dr. Login?

278
00:26:36,750 --> 00:26:41,625
Despite the fact that these spices
came from our Punjab.

279
00:26:42,500 --> 00:26:44,625
That is how it all began.

280
00:26:45,041 --> 00:26:48,083
You came to us for our spices

281
00:26:48,583 --> 00:26:50,833
and ended up swallowing our kingdom.

282
00:26:52,250 --> 00:26:53,208
Yes, spices.

283
00:26:54,333 --> 00:26:55,875
It must be because the water is different.

284
00:26:56,458 --> 00:26:58,291
It could be the water, Maharani.

285
00:26:59,375 --> 00:27:02,458
I am glad you agree with me.

286
00:27:04,041 --> 00:27:08,291
If I knew you were
such a caring and honest gentleman,

287
00:27:08,875 --> 00:27:12,375
I would not have plotted to poison you.

288
00:27:14,791 --> 00:27:16,000
I did try my best.

289
00:27:18,375 --> 00:27:19,333
Poison?

290
00:27:24,333 --> 00:27:25,625
The thought had crossed my mind.

291
00:27:28,541 --> 00:27:30,666
Dr. Login, eat your food.

292
00:27:32,666 --> 00:27:35,208
I have come to terms with my situation.

293
00:27:35,875 --> 00:27:37,000
It's all in the past.

294
00:27:37,958 --> 00:27:39,166
There's nothing to worry about.

295
00:27:39,958 --> 00:27:42,125
I've decided not to kill you.

296
00:27:51,333 --> 00:27:54,583
Are the spices too hot for you, Dr. Login?

297
00:28:11,750 --> 00:28:12,666
My honorable Queen.

298
00:28:17,541 --> 00:28:19,750
It has been a long time, Madam.

299
00:28:21,875 --> 00:28:23,625
Time has its own destiny.

300
00:28:25,416 --> 00:28:26,666
Yes.

301
00:28:27,333 --> 00:28:30,083
And it has not been as kind as it seems.

302
00:28:30,208 --> 00:28:31,708
But, we are warriors.

303
00:28:32,541 --> 00:28:34,250
Are we not, Colonel Hurbon?

304
00:28:34,458 --> 00:28:36,541
Yes, we are.

305
00:28:37,666 --> 00:28:42,458
Warriors of Maharaja Ranjit Singh's Army
of the Khalsa.

306
00:28:43,375 --> 00:28:45,750
You have served him well.

307
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,833
It was my honor, Madam.

308
00:28:55,541 --> 00:28:56,458
The sword?

309
00:28:57,583 --> 00:28:58,416
Yes, Madam.

310
00:28:59,583 --> 00:29:04,666
Given to me by the Lion of Punjab himself.

311
00:29:05,041 --> 00:29:06,125
I know.

312
00:29:07,625 --> 00:29:08,916
I remember it all very well.

313
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,083
And now,

314
00:29:12,333 --> 00:29:14,708
I want you to have this.

315
00:29:25,833 --> 00:29:26,916
I know…

316
00:29:28,500 --> 00:29:30,041
There is a yearning in my soul,

317
00:29:30,375 --> 00:29:33,375
telling me to battle on, to become free.

318
00:29:34,458 --> 00:29:35,333
But, I am…

319
00:29:37,041 --> 00:29:41,083
The young Maharaja Duleep,
he must fight on.

320
00:29:41,250 --> 00:29:43,291
You must instill in him

321
00:29:43,375 --> 00:29:47,500
the will and courage
to take back what is rightfully his.

322
00:29:48,333 --> 00:29:51,500
He must know his purpose in life.

323
00:29:51,583 --> 00:29:54,458
Lead his people to freedom.

324
00:29:54,875 --> 00:29:57,750
- Thank you.
- Please, Madam.

325
00:29:58,583 --> 00:30:00,458
It was not only my duty,

326
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,208
but the fulfillment of my pledge
to my king.

327
00:30:28,875 --> 00:30:30,875
He was a great king.

328
00:30:32,625 --> 00:30:34,333
Very wise, and an astute politician.

329
00:30:34,875 --> 00:30:36,666
His faith in his religion was absolute.

330
00:30:37,416 --> 00:30:39,333
Even after the greatest of victories,

331
00:30:39,875 --> 00:30:41,875
he bowed before his faith.

332
00:30:42,750 --> 00:30:46,541
He used to say,
"There is nothing higher than faith."

333
00:30:47,333 --> 00:30:50,166
He was accountable only to the Khalsa.

334
00:30:58,875 --> 00:31:01,041
The Lion of Punjab's Sword of Justice.

335
00:31:02,250 --> 00:31:04,416
I want you to keep it now.

336
00:31:05,375 --> 00:31:08,375
Carry it with great pride and courage.

337
00:31:09,500 --> 00:31:11,208
You are the rightful heir to the sword.

338
00:31:14,083 --> 00:31:15,250
Who am I?

339
00:31:16,416 --> 00:31:20,250
You are the one
that the prophecy speaks about.

340
00:31:20,708 --> 00:31:22,500
The one
who will regain freedom for his people

341
00:31:23,041 --> 00:31:27,250
and rule his subjects fairly and wisely.

342
00:31:52,958 --> 00:31:55,291
This cold, really chilling my bones.

343
00:31:56,250 --> 00:31:58,416
This cold is not like our country.

344
00:31:58,500 --> 00:32:01,375
- Should I get you another blanket?
- No.

345
00:32:06,250 --> 00:32:07,250
Thank God.

346
00:32:09,958 --> 00:32:11,625
The sun decided to show its face.

347
00:32:17,291 --> 00:32:18,625
I can see the warmth
in the reflection of this

348
00:32:19,666 --> 00:32:21,250
across your face.

349
00:32:21,916 --> 00:32:23,166
No, leave it.

350
00:32:24,875 --> 00:32:28,833
There's nothing more divine
than the warmth of a diamond.

351
00:32:31,416 --> 00:32:33,125
You were supposed to be a star.

352
00:32:34,750 --> 00:32:36,416
The diamond of the king.

353
00:32:40,458 --> 00:32:42,791
Yes, Duleep. You.

354
00:32:43,833 --> 00:32:46,916
You had wealth, personal wealth.

355
00:32:47,333 --> 00:32:50,166
Land grants, salt mines,

356
00:32:50,958 --> 00:32:53,958
and one special diamond.

357
00:32:57,166 --> 00:32:58,291
The diamond?

358
00:33:00,791 --> 00:33:04,333
The Mountain of Light. The Kohinoor.

359
00:33:18,250 --> 00:33:19,250
A gift for you.

360
00:33:20,916 --> 00:33:21,791
Gift?

361
00:33:23,708 --> 00:33:24,916
Your gift.

362
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,333
"Mountain of Light," "The Diamond".

363
00:33:31,916 --> 00:33:32,875
Cold.

364
00:33:33,708 --> 00:33:35,875
Cold by nature, I'm afraid.

365
00:33:37,083 --> 00:33:38,333
Diamonds are.

366
00:33:40,291 --> 00:33:41,500
It was stolen.

367
00:33:42,583 --> 00:33:44,250
Stolen from you, Duleep.

368
00:33:46,208 --> 00:33:47,541
Your kingdom, your wealth.

369
00:33:48,541 --> 00:33:49,625
Your dignity.

370
00:33:50,375 --> 00:33:52,791
And in particular, your faith.

371
00:33:59,958 --> 00:34:02,250
I am confused, Lord.

372
00:34:03,333 --> 00:34:04,541
Help me.

373
00:34:05,708 --> 00:34:09,833
For I know not who I am
nor where I belong.

374
00:34:28,041 --> 00:34:30,458
God came to us
in the form of Jesus Christ.

375
00:34:31,125 --> 00:34:34,708
He lived, died and rose for us,

376
00:34:34,791 --> 00:34:37,250
so that,
through his suffering and sacrifice,

377
00:34:37,333 --> 00:34:39,458
we may attain His favor.

378
00:34:41,833 --> 00:34:43,166
But, I was a child.

379
00:34:45,458 --> 00:34:47,500
I was taken away from her.

380
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,666
I did not know the ways of the world.

381
00:34:52,958 --> 00:34:54,000
I wanted to learn.

382
00:34:55,041 --> 00:34:56,416
But, I wanted to learn everything.

383
00:34:58,041 --> 00:34:58,875
Good.

384
00:34:59,625 --> 00:35:00,458
Bad.

385
00:35:01,333 --> 00:35:02,166
And who I was.

386
00:35:02,541 --> 00:35:04,416
You were taught what was right for you.

387
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:07,166
I was taught what they wanted to teach me.

388
00:35:07,916 --> 00:35:09,041
What was right for them.

389
00:35:10,791 --> 00:35:13,208
Maharani was unable to care for you.

390
00:35:14,208 --> 00:35:17,375
- She was losing her sanity.
- She was my mother.

391
00:35:21,208 --> 00:35:25,041
Your safety and wellbeing
were of utmost importance to the Crown.

392
00:35:25,500 --> 00:35:29,291
Lady Login and I cared for you as our own.

393
00:35:29,750 --> 00:35:31,250
Our own flesh and blood.

394
00:35:31,583 --> 00:35:34,416
You are part of who and what I am.

395
00:35:35,875 --> 00:35:37,791
- But, I am a…
- Christian!

396
00:35:38,458 --> 00:35:40,375
You are a Christian, my son.

397
00:35:41,375 --> 00:35:44,000
And the path of Lord Jesus Christ
is your salvation.

398
00:35:44,583 --> 00:35:48,375
My salvation is in knowing
who and what I really am.

399
00:35:48,875 --> 00:35:51,041
Not in what you say I am.

400
00:36:06,500 --> 00:36:08,000
I was completely alone.

401
00:36:11,083 --> 00:36:12,083
A woman…

402
00:36:13,333 --> 00:36:17,583
surrounded on all four sides
by bloodthirsty vultures.

403
00:36:18,166 --> 00:36:19,916
I needed a mother!

404
00:36:22,791 --> 00:36:23,916
You managed to lose yourself…

405
00:36:28,500 --> 00:36:29,416
and me as well.

406
00:36:34,583 --> 00:36:36,458
He was the only one we could trust.

407
00:36:37,541 --> 00:36:40,750
Your uncle, Jawahir, your guardian.

408
00:36:47,916 --> 00:36:50,625
You drew your sword
against the blood of the Lion of Punjab!

409
00:36:53,625 --> 00:36:58,208
Your face was covered with his blood.

410
00:37:00,958 --> 00:37:02,833
Sorrow turns people mad.

411
00:37:28,875 --> 00:37:30,708
What have they done to you, Duleep?

412
00:37:31,166 --> 00:37:33,375
They stole you away from me

413
00:37:33,958 --> 00:37:36,291
and filled your heart with absolute lies,

414
00:37:36,708 --> 00:37:38,750
lies that you have come to believe
as the truth.

415
00:37:39,458 --> 00:37:42,000
They have killed the soul
of the Lion of Punjab.

416
00:37:42,833 --> 00:37:45,166
The vultures you talk about
were everywhere.

417
00:37:46,833 --> 00:37:50,458
And you abandoned me. But, I was a child.

418
00:37:50,875 --> 00:37:52,041
Not a king.

419
00:37:54,250 --> 00:37:57,416
The king was of your making, not mine.

420
00:37:58,125 --> 00:38:00,291
It was your destiny to become a king.

421
00:38:27,333 --> 00:38:28,333
Maharani?

422
00:38:31,916 --> 00:38:35,875
I was told I would find you here.

423
00:38:37,208 --> 00:38:38,666
You're a man of faith.

424
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,208
I don't know anything of your faith,

425
00:38:44,250 --> 00:38:46,500
and I have no desire to know,

426
00:38:47,125 --> 00:38:49,416
but I can only assume

427
00:38:49,666 --> 00:38:54,000
that it holds one to be good,

428
00:38:54,416 --> 00:38:56,833
just and honorable.

429
00:38:58,833 --> 00:39:01,000
I think any faith should do that…

430
00:39:02,125 --> 00:39:05,791
if it claims to believe in God.

431
00:39:07,916 --> 00:39:09,041
Maharani.

432
00:39:10,208 --> 00:39:11,875
It is very cold outside.

433
00:39:12,041 --> 00:39:14,333
It's not good for your health.
Come inside.

434
00:39:15,458 --> 00:39:16,416
My health…

435
00:39:17,416 --> 00:39:20,083
doesn't look
any worse than yours, Dr. Login.

436
00:39:21,375 --> 00:39:22,208
Time.

437
00:39:24,041 --> 00:39:27,250
Time has not been kind to us, I gather.

438
00:39:28,458 --> 00:39:31,708
Good to some… and a bit worse to others.

439
00:39:33,291 --> 00:39:34,458
Forgive me.

440
00:39:37,416 --> 00:39:38,708
That's not enough.

441
00:39:40,250 --> 00:39:42,500
For the damage that you have done,

442
00:39:42,958 --> 00:39:45,833
no kind of apology will suffice.

443
00:39:46,500 --> 00:39:49,291
The pain you have caused
a grieving mother…

444
00:39:51,041 --> 00:39:52,833
You stole Duleep from me…

445
00:39:54,583 --> 00:39:56,416
and changed him forever.

446
00:39:57,125 --> 00:40:00,333
You squashed his soul
by telling him absolute lies!

447
00:40:01,541 --> 00:40:05,583
I have longed for him
to call me "mother"…

448
00:40:06,875 --> 00:40:09,625
and to hear the Guru's name from his lips.

449
00:40:10,416 --> 00:40:14,625
What have you done to my son?

450
00:40:16,541 --> 00:40:19,250
Believe in whatever you wish.

451
00:40:20,291 --> 00:40:24,333
But I believe there is just one God,

452
00:40:24,583 --> 00:40:27,416
whose governance we all live under.

453
00:40:28,625 --> 00:40:29,958
And I can assure you…

454
00:40:31,458 --> 00:40:33,916
that you will not be forgiven!

455
00:41:38,583 --> 00:41:39,416
Duleep.

456
00:41:52,375 --> 00:41:53,750
Don't forget your promise to me.

457
00:41:56,166 --> 00:41:57,625
I am to be cremated…

458
00:41:58,708 --> 00:42:00,416
as per Sikh rites…

459
00:42:02,541 --> 00:42:04,666
on the soil of my birth.

460
00:42:07,166 --> 00:42:08,083
Over there…

461
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,375
Thakur Singh Sandhawalia
is the only one you can trust.

462
00:42:13,208 --> 00:42:15,291
Trust no one else.

463
00:42:17,291 --> 00:42:23,000
He was your father's most trusted ally.

464
00:42:24,125 --> 00:42:28,500
His loyalty is unquestionable.

465
00:42:36,541 --> 00:42:38,166
Raise your sword…

466
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:44,750
and reclaim your kingdom.

467
00:42:48,458 --> 00:42:50,166
Do you promise, my son?

468
00:43:10,833 --> 00:43:11,750
Yes.

469
00:43:27,041 --> 00:43:28,333
The tears

470
00:43:28,416 --> 00:43:32,583
Have turned into nectar

471
00:43:33,916 --> 00:43:36,875
Divine winds blow

472
00:43:36,958 --> 00:43:40,375
From my country's shore

473
00:43:41,458 --> 00:43:43,291
The tears

474
00:43:43,375 --> 00:43:47,916
Have turned into nectar

475
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,250
Divine winds blow

476
00:43:51,333 --> 00:43:54,750
From my country's shore

477
00:43:55,500 --> 00:43:58,083
The true Master possesses

478
00:43:58,166 --> 00:44:01,333
My body and soul

479
00:44:02,500 --> 00:44:04,916
The true Master possesses

480
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,458
My body and soul

481
00:44:09,041 --> 00:44:12,041
My soul

482
00:44:12,125 --> 00:44:15,916
Is overcome by the lost glory

483
00:44:17,083 --> 00:44:20,375
My lost country

484
00:44:20,458 --> 00:44:22,541
Calls out to me

485
00:44:51,625 --> 00:44:55,125
Woe laden messages

486
00:44:55,208 --> 00:44:58,208
Arrive with winds

487
00:44:58,666 --> 00:45:01,208
May no sick

488
00:45:01,291 --> 00:45:05,083
Remain sans God's blessings

489
00:45:05,958 --> 00:45:08,125
Subside O'

490
00:45:08,208 --> 00:45:11,666
Subside each man's sufferings

491
00:45:13,041 --> 00:45:14,791
Subside O'

492
00:45:14,875 --> 00:45:18,875
Subside each man's sufferings

493
00:45:19,458 --> 00:45:22,583
My soul is overcome

494
00:45:22,666 --> 00:45:26,458
By the lost glory

495
00:45:27,208 --> 00:45:31,916
My lost country calls out to me

496
00:45:33,500 --> 00:45:36,625
My soul is overcome

497
00:45:36,708 --> 00:45:40,583
By the lost glory

498
00:45:41,125 --> 00:45:43,458
My lost country

499
00:45:43,541 --> 00:45:46,833
Calls out to me

500
00:45:47,875 --> 00:45:51,625
Suffered I have lot O' Luck

501
00:45:51,708 --> 00:45:54,375
At thy hands

502
00:45:55,291 --> 00:45:57,208
Separated I am

503
00:45:57,500 --> 00:46:01,833
From my mother and my land

504
00:46:02,375 --> 00:46:05,750
Suffered I have lot O' Luck

505
00:46:05,833 --> 00:46:08,625
At thy hands

506
00:46:09,416 --> 00:46:11,416
Separated I am

507
00:46:11,500 --> 00:46:15,958
From my mother and my land

508
00:46:16,375 --> 00:46:21,875
O' how do I cross the deep seas

509
00:46:22,875 --> 00:46:25,916
My soul is overcome

510
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,875
By the lost glory…

511
00:46:30,500 --> 00:46:34,500
The souls of those that die in Him
depart to be with Him

512
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:39,416
when they behold the face of God
in light and glory,

513
00:46:39,500 --> 00:46:42,666
waiting for the full redemption

514
00:46:43,583 --> 00:46:45,541
of their bodies.

515
00:46:56,875 --> 00:46:59,916
I will be taking her home. To Punjab.

516
00:47:01,208 --> 00:47:03,583
She will be cremated as per Sikh rites.

517
00:47:04,291 --> 00:47:06,166
That was my mother's wish.

518
00:47:37,750 --> 00:47:39,333
You need to come with me.

519
00:48:04,291 --> 00:48:05,541
My son.

520
00:48:08,375 --> 00:48:10,458
It's been a good journey.

521
00:48:11,333 --> 00:48:13,791
Now I must enter the house of my Lord.

522
00:48:17,916 --> 00:48:19,291
Be good to yourself, my son.

523
00:48:22,291 --> 00:48:25,291
Be steadfast in everything
that I have taught you.

524
00:48:35,541 --> 00:48:40,500
We commend Dr. John Spencer Login
to the mercy of God.

525
00:48:40,875 --> 00:48:43,333
We commit his body to the ground.

526
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:47,541
Earth to earth, ashes to ashes,

527
00:48:47,625 --> 00:48:49,500
dust to dust.

528
00:49:05,166 --> 00:49:08,083
Now, I truly am an orphan.

529
00:49:10,958 --> 00:49:11,958
Respected Mother.

530
00:49:14,750 --> 00:49:18,250
I am going to take you home, to Punjab.

531
00:49:33,125 --> 00:49:35,125
With a great deal

532
00:49:36,041 --> 00:49:39,208
of trepidation on my part…

533
00:49:40,916 --> 00:49:41,750
But, I must.

534
00:49:43,250 --> 00:49:44,958
The circumstances compel me to.

535
00:49:46,458 --> 00:49:47,416
Therefore,

536
00:49:48,416 --> 00:49:52,791
I humbly request
that you depart for Britain immediately.

537
00:49:58,833 --> 00:50:00,625
Your passage into Punjab…

538
00:50:01,875 --> 00:50:03,208
is no longer possible.

539
00:50:18,791 --> 00:50:20,875
You yourself created the creation.

540
00:50:20,958 --> 00:50:23,166
You yourself infused your power into it.

541
00:50:23,250 --> 00:50:25,833
You behold your creation,

542
00:50:25,916 --> 00:50:29,375
like the losing and winning dice
of the Earth.

543
00:50:29,458 --> 00:50:33,250
Whoever has come, shall depart.
All shall have their turn.

544
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:44,875
I hope you forgive me, Mother.

545
00:50:46,166 --> 00:50:48,958
For I could not take you
to the land of Punjab.

546
00:51:12,666 --> 00:51:16,041
Maharaja, we are honored
to have you pass through Egypt

547
00:51:16,125 --> 00:51:18,791
and present these diplomas
to our graduates.

548
00:52:20,791 --> 00:52:24,875
O' Moon

549
00:52:25,583 --> 00:52:31,416
I find thy moonlight sweet

550
00:52:36,583 --> 00:52:41,500
O' Moon

551
00:52:41,791 --> 00:52:46,000
I find thy moonlight sweet…

552
00:52:46,083 --> 00:52:48,458
No. Please.

553
00:52:48,541 --> 00:52:51,958
If I could

554
00:52:52,375 --> 00:52:56,916
I would adorn the heart with thee…

555
00:53:00,916 --> 00:53:02,958
Do you know who I am?

556
00:53:06,791 --> 00:53:08,333
Do you know who I am?

557
00:53:14,708 --> 00:53:18,416
Someone I am clearly not and can never be.

558
00:53:19,416 --> 00:53:21,458
Someone I am clearly not

559
00:53:21,541 --> 00:53:23,083
and can never be.

560
00:53:29,291 --> 00:53:33,583
When you are my wife,
you will be who I am.

561
00:53:34,875 --> 00:53:37,791
When you are my wife,

562
00:53:37,875 --> 00:53:39,666
you will be who I am.

563
00:54:03,291 --> 00:54:05,375
The anklet asks

564
00:54:05,458 --> 00:54:10,208
When the bland doors of my house

565
00:54:10,291 --> 00:54:13,750
Shall be adorned

566
00:54:13,833 --> 00:54:18,333
The scarves shall turn colorful

567
00:54:18,416 --> 00:54:23,500
And turbans bright

568
00:54:24,125 --> 00:54:28,875
Cautiously I jingle

569
00:54:29,083 --> 00:54:34,500
The tiny bells on my Anklet

570
00:54:38,541 --> 00:54:43,041
If I could

571
00:54:43,125 --> 00:54:48,833
I would adorn the heart with thee

572
00:54:48,916 --> 00:54:53,583
O' Moon, I find thy moonlight sweet…

573
00:54:55,166 --> 00:54:56,250
Can we count?

574
00:54:58,041 --> 00:54:59,333
Can you count?

575
00:55:00,708 --> 00:55:03,958
Shall we count? Can we count?

576
00:55:06,125 --> 00:55:07,708
Can you count with me?

577
00:55:48,583 --> 00:55:53,125
Alms for the needy.
Alms for the needy, sir.

578
00:56:02,166 --> 00:56:05,041
I too had riches once.

579
00:56:06,083 --> 00:56:08,833
Far greater
than the imagination could hold.

580
00:56:10,250 --> 00:56:12,458
A kingdom.

581
00:56:13,666 --> 00:56:14,833
I know who you are.

582
00:56:16,416 --> 00:56:18,833
One beggar cannot take alms from another.

583
00:56:21,500 --> 00:56:23,500
Good day, sir.

584
00:56:24,791 --> 00:56:29,583
Alms for the needy. Alms for the needy.

585
00:56:41,833 --> 00:56:44,500
Pray together.

586
00:56:45,416 --> 00:56:48,458
Forgive us our trespasses,

587
00:56:48,541 --> 00:56:51,375
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.

588
00:56:54,750 --> 00:56:57,000
Something sits heavily on your mind.

589
00:56:58,500 --> 00:57:02,000
I'm winning.
And that, too, without much of an effort.

590
00:57:25,333 --> 00:57:29,583
I am trying to build these dreams
that were once our reality in our lands.

591
00:57:33,750 --> 00:57:37,125
I am fooling myself into believing
that I am someone that clearly…

592
00:57:39,250 --> 00:57:40,375
I am not like that.

593
00:57:42,708 --> 00:57:44,541
And neither are you, Arur.

594
00:57:48,500 --> 00:57:50,666
We are living a life of illusion.

595
00:57:53,125 --> 00:57:54,916
Can you continue to live with that, Arur?

596
00:57:59,458 --> 00:58:00,708
We are Sikhs.

597
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,208
Yes, sir. We are Sikhs.

598
00:58:06,750 --> 00:58:10,125
We have a kingdom, do we not?

599
00:58:13,375 --> 00:58:15,000
Yes, sir, we do.

600
00:58:16,541 --> 00:58:19,500
And I… its king.

601
00:58:21,291 --> 00:58:22,208
Yes, sir.

602
00:58:23,708 --> 00:58:27,625
Maharaja, Arur Singh. Maharaja.

603
00:58:33,208 --> 00:58:35,375
Come, my prince. Drink.

604
00:58:36,041 --> 00:58:37,333
The tea is just wonderful.

605
00:58:38,583 --> 00:58:39,958
I believe it's from Assam.

606
00:58:41,875 --> 00:58:43,291
Yes, Your Majesty.

607
00:58:44,791 --> 00:58:45,791
I believe it is.

608
00:58:54,208 --> 00:58:57,500
I wish to ask something, Your Majesty.

609
00:58:59,958 --> 00:59:01,833
Yes? Do speak.

610
00:59:03,625 --> 00:59:06,208
About the Kingdom of Punjab
Can you tell me?

611
00:59:07,791 --> 00:59:09,000
Yes, there was a kingdom.

612
00:59:10,500 --> 00:59:11,958
And I, its king.

613
00:59:15,166 --> 00:59:16,041
Yes.

614
00:59:16,541 --> 00:59:21,208
Taken from me by lies and deceit.

615
00:59:23,750 --> 00:59:25,333
They were God-fearing men

616
00:59:26,250 --> 00:59:29,041
who thought it was best
for you and the people.

617
00:59:29,125 --> 00:59:31,291
Their concerns were not for my wellbeing,

618
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:33,416
or the wellbeing of our people.

619
00:59:34,500 --> 00:59:37,250
They were not the Christians
they professed to be.

620
00:59:38,083 --> 00:59:39,583
They were not men of truth.

621
00:59:40,333 --> 00:59:43,375
Then tell me of a kingdom
built on truth, Duleep.

622
00:59:44,041 --> 00:59:45,750
The kingdom of my father.

623
00:59:47,666 --> 00:59:50,291
Your father was a man of truth,
from what I know of him.

624
00:59:51,750 --> 00:59:54,333
But what happened after he died, hmm?

625
00:59:55,333 --> 00:59:57,291
A kingdom in disarray.

626
00:59:58,583 --> 01:00:02,291
The only truthful kingdom I know of,
Duleep, is the kingdom of our Lord.

627
01:00:03,791 --> 01:00:07,458
What you seek is all gone now,
my Black Prince.

628
01:00:12,291 --> 01:00:14,875
I am not a prince.

629
01:00:26,791 --> 01:00:27,625
Maharaja…

630
01:00:34,083 --> 01:00:38,041
I am very pleased to see you
looking like a Sikh.

631
01:00:39,125 --> 01:00:40,666
But, this is a state function.

632
01:00:42,208 --> 01:00:43,375
It will raise a lot of eyebrows.

633
01:00:45,875 --> 01:00:48,875
I am who I am.

634
01:00:50,375 --> 01:00:51,541
I am a Sikh.

635
01:00:53,375 --> 01:00:54,208
Come, Arur Singh.

636
01:00:55,208 --> 01:00:59,041
We have a function to attend
and eyebrows to raise.

637
01:01:29,291 --> 01:01:31,500
13 years later.

638
01:01:32,375 --> 01:01:33,416
The Punjab papers.

639
01:01:34,125 --> 01:01:35,583
Finally available to the people.

640
01:01:37,125 --> 01:01:41,416
Maharani Jindan is a serious obstacle
to our interest in the Kingdom of Punjab.

641
01:01:41,916 --> 01:01:45,625
Every effort must be made
to discredit her among her people.

642
01:01:46,208 --> 01:01:48,625
Separate her from power.

643
01:01:48,708 --> 01:01:52,000
Take the young Maharaja away from her.

644
01:01:52,916 --> 01:01:54,916
Only then, we will have
a clear road to victory.

645
01:01:57,208 --> 01:01:58,875
The world needs to know.

646
01:02:00,208 --> 01:02:02,750
They need to be awakened to the reality

647
01:02:02,833 --> 01:02:05,250
of who and what the British really are.

648
01:02:06,583 --> 01:02:07,791
A bunch of Fagins.

649
01:02:09,291 --> 01:02:10,916
For what they did to a little boy.

650
01:02:12,166 --> 01:02:13,708
They stole his childhood…

651
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:16,791
and tore out his heart.

652
01:02:17,125 --> 01:02:18,875
And in the process of their deceit,

653
01:02:18,958 --> 01:02:24,083
they decapitated a great kingdom
and drank its blood and glory.

654
01:02:25,708 --> 01:02:26,541
Glory.

655
01:02:27,500 --> 01:02:31,833
Not of valor, not of any brave act,
but cunningness and fraud.

656
01:02:47,833 --> 01:02:50,708
Write a letter, Arur Singh. To The Times.

657
01:02:52,041 --> 01:02:53,750
Exposing all that we have learned

658
01:02:54,208 --> 01:02:56,708
about how the English
stole the Kingdom of Punjab

659
01:02:56,791 --> 01:02:58,791
and betrayed the trust of my father.

660
01:03:00,041 --> 01:03:02,000
I will demand, in no uncertain terms,

661
01:03:02,708 --> 01:03:05,375
that what is rightfully mine
be given back to me

662
01:03:05,458 --> 01:03:06,833
without any further delay or removes.

663
01:03:20,875 --> 01:03:21,791
Maharaja.

664
01:03:24,083 --> 01:03:27,333
I have read your memorial
to Lord Salisbury.

665
01:03:28,125 --> 01:03:31,166
Sir O'Burne, you are an hour late.

666
01:03:32,083 --> 01:03:33,666
I have waited.

667
01:03:35,250 --> 01:03:36,541
I do apologize.

668
01:03:37,291 --> 01:03:39,791
But I cannot comprehend
how a person in your position

669
01:03:39,875 --> 01:03:42,083
could court a rebuff, by demand,

670
01:03:42,166 --> 01:03:45,500
something that no government
in their right mind would ever consider,

671
01:03:45,583 --> 01:03:47,416
much less satisfy.

672
01:03:48,458 --> 01:03:51,958
You are talking of transactions
of nearly half a century ago,

673
01:03:52,041 --> 01:03:54,416
which if reopened, as you desire,

674
01:03:54,500 --> 01:03:58,083
would reopen every act of the state
of British government in India.

675
01:03:58,166 --> 01:03:59,833
That may not be such a bad thing.

676
01:04:01,083 --> 01:04:02,250
Truth is all I seek.

677
01:04:04,625 --> 01:04:07,083
They have treated me like an animal.

678
01:04:08,416 --> 01:04:11,208
They are trying to buy my silence
with a pittance.

679
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,208
They are now trying to goad me
into desperation.

680
01:04:15,416 --> 01:04:17,375
They forget I am a king!

681
01:04:17,458 --> 01:04:20,291
You surrendered your kingdom
with alacrity.

682
01:04:20,625 --> 01:04:23,666
You could say nothing at the time
of the justice that was dealt to you.

683
01:04:23,750 --> 01:04:26,166
Justice? Injustice of the highest order.

684
01:04:27,875 --> 01:04:32,416
I demand no less than total
and complete governance of my kingdom.

685
01:04:33,166 --> 01:04:34,375
Do you understand me?

686
01:04:35,208 --> 01:04:38,666
The government of India
wants to get rid of me and my family,

687
01:04:38,750 --> 01:04:41,125
that we may sink into oblivion.

688
01:04:42,500 --> 01:04:44,291
That will not happen.

689
01:04:44,750 --> 01:04:47,875
I will not vanish without a fight.

690
01:04:57,541 --> 01:05:00,583
My mother told me
there's only one man I can trust.

691
01:05:00,666 --> 01:05:01,958
Sardar Thakur Singh Sandhawalia.

692
01:05:03,208 --> 01:05:05,208
We cannot turn back now, Arur Singh,

693
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:09,583
and live in England
in an utter state of humiliation.

694
01:05:11,208 --> 01:05:13,708
My pleas,
my democratic approach for justice,

695
01:05:14,041 --> 01:05:16,750
have fallen on deaf ears.

696
01:05:17,125 --> 01:05:18,375
The government doesn't care.

697
01:05:20,541 --> 01:05:22,416
The Prime Minister
is afraid to meet with me,

698
01:05:22,500 --> 01:05:25,500
even for a few minutes,
to listen to our grievances.

699
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:29,791
And now, as Sikhs,
we must not just demand,

700
01:05:29,875 --> 01:05:31,875
but take back what is rightfully ours.

701
01:05:33,833 --> 01:05:36,041
Send a wire to Thakur Singh Sandhawalia.

702
01:05:38,416 --> 01:05:40,083
Immediately, Maharaja.

703
01:05:52,416 --> 01:05:53,291
Maharaja?

704
01:05:54,500 --> 01:05:55,500
They are here.

705
01:06:07,125 --> 01:06:09,041
Thakur Singh, Maharaja.

706
01:06:09,916 --> 01:06:11,541
So many years have passed.

707
01:06:12,583 --> 01:06:15,583
It was a very long and arduous journey,

708
01:06:16,541 --> 01:06:19,916
but now we are here to take you home.

709
01:06:20,833 --> 01:06:23,625
There is so much I want to know,
Thakur Singh.

710
01:06:24,208 --> 01:06:25,958
You must tell me everything.

711
01:06:27,500 --> 01:06:28,625
Yes, Maharaja.

712
01:06:33,125 --> 01:06:34,541
You are the heir
to the Sikh Kingdom of Punjab.

713
01:06:36,375 --> 01:06:37,583
The Khalsa will rise.

714
01:06:39,583 --> 01:06:41,291
Khalsa just needs a purpose.

715
01:06:43,291 --> 01:06:45,583
Khalsa needs you.

716
01:06:48,666 --> 01:06:50,166
That pure and holy land…

717
01:06:52,541 --> 01:06:57,500
awaits the fulfillment of the prophecy.

718
01:07:04,375 --> 01:07:05,250
The prophecy?

719
01:07:09,208 --> 01:07:13,208
You must re-embrace your faith.

720
01:07:14,708 --> 01:07:15,916
Not only in principle,

721
01:07:16,916 --> 01:07:20,833
but also in appearance, deeds and actions.

722
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,291
My soul yearns to be a Sikh.

723
01:07:31,083 --> 01:07:33,333
Then it shall be done,
as your heart desires.

724
01:07:33,916 --> 01:07:37,125
The soil of your birth
awaits your arrival.

725
01:07:37,625 --> 01:07:40,958
They will celebrate
the return of their real king.

726
01:07:41,458 --> 01:07:43,625
When you embrace your faith again…

727
01:07:45,166 --> 01:07:46,541
the Khalsa will rise.

728
01:07:47,791 --> 01:07:51,125
Their cry of victory
will be heard across the land.

729
01:07:57,333 --> 01:07:59,541
This money is for holy offerings
at the Golden Temple.

730
01:08:00,791 --> 01:08:03,416
Pray for my swift return
to our beloved homeland.

731
01:08:04,083 --> 01:08:06,791
I am restless to meet my people
and see my palace.

732
01:08:11,166 --> 01:08:15,416
Until that time,
you will find solace in this.

733
01:08:16,708 --> 01:08:18,333
These are the prayers of our Gurus.

734
01:08:19,916 --> 01:08:21,750
These are the only treasures
we seek in life.

735
01:08:25,375 --> 01:08:29,791
Let my Lord know

736
01:08:29,875 --> 01:08:34,625
How the beloved feels

737
01:08:43,166 --> 01:08:47,000
Away from Him the comfort of the quilts

738
01:08:47,083 --> 01:08:49,750
Is baneful

739
01:08:51,125 --> 01:08:56,166
And it feels like living
In a house of snakes

740
01:08:56,916 --> 01:08:59,958
Only the company of my beloved Lord

741
01:09:00,291 --> 01:09:03,666
Is joyful

742
01:09:04,625 --> 01:09:09,791
And all other joys
Are belike being burnt alive

743
01:09:10,750 --> 01:09:15,083
Let my Lord

744
01:09:15,166 --> 01:09:20,041
Know how the beloved feels

745
01:09:21,250 --> 01:09:24,666
Let my Lord know…

746
01:09:28,333 --> 01:09:30,125
What is this, Maharaja?

747
01:09:33,083 --> 01:09:34,583
What will happen to me?

748
01:09:36,416 --> 01:09:37,500
And the children?

749
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,041
You are Christian.

750
01:09:43,125 --> 01:09:45,000
As am I, and the children.

751
01:09:46,625 --> 01:09:49,083
And Christian we shall always be.

752
01:09:51,208 --> 01:09:53,291
In life and in death.

753
01:09:55,041 --> 01:09:57,250
We are your family.

754
01:09:59,333 --> 01:10:01,166
Don't destroy us…

755
01:10:02,666 --> 01:10:04,583
I beg of you.

756
01:10:05,208 --> 01:10:09,250
I plead mercy with you,
do not abandon this family.

757
01:10:14,375 --> 01:10:16,958
There is nothing for us without you.
Maharaja!

758
01:10:19,583 --> 01:10:21,208
The kingdom is gone.

759
01:10:22,583 --> 01:10:25,833
Subjects fake, prophecy false.

760
01:10:28,583 --> 01:10:31,416
Look around you. What do you see?

761
01:10:33,833 --> 01:10:36,500
Decay of your madness!

762
01:11:04,708 --> 01:11:07,583
"My Sikh brothers, I beg your forgiveness

763
01:11:08,166 --> 01:11:11,416
for adopting a foreign religion
and forsaking the faith of my ancestors.

764
01:11:12,083 --> 01:11:13,875
I wish to be baptized as a Sikh again.

765
01:11:13,958 --> 01:11:15,541
It is now my desire
to return again to Bombay.

766
01:11:16,541 --> 01:11:19,250
By the grace of the Almighty,
this will happen.

767
01:11:19,958 --> 01:11:24,500
My beloved countrymen,
I am your own fresh and blood.

768
01:11:25,208 --> 01:11:29,916
Every second, my heart yearns
to set foot in my homeland again.

769
01:11:30,916 --> 01:11:35,375
In order to reclaim the Sikh kingdom,
I need my Sikh brothers by my side."

770
01:11:36,833 --> 01:11:40,916
Our king is coming to lead us to freedom.

771
01:11:41,291 --> 01:11:43,666
Blessed shall be those

772
01:11:43,750 --> 01:11:46,125
Who praise the true and timeless one!

773
01:11:46,208 --> 01:11:48,916
O Nanak, through this Naam,
a state of bliss is obtained!

774
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:50,958
With your grace, may all mankind be well!

775
01:12:14,541 --> 01:12:18,250
You do know that by doing this,
you risk the loss of all that you have?

776
01:12:21,666 --> 01:12:24,791
I have already taken the first steps
to abjure Christianity…

777
01:12:27,416 --> 01:12:29,291
for I no longer have faith

778
01:12:29,791 --> 01:12:32,208
in the so-called Christian government.

779
01:12:35,041 --> 01:12:37,416
I am resolved to go to India.

780
01:12:44,041 --> 01:12:44,875
The government of India

781
01:12:44,958 --> 01:12:47,291
is prepared to offer you
a much higher stipend.

782
01:12:47,666 --> 01:12:50,416
Which shall be more than sufficient
to cover your needs.

783
01:12:50,500 --> 01:12:54,458
But, it will require
your total and absolute surrender.

784
01:12:56,666 --> 01:12:59,041
No more of your nonsensical demands.

785
01:13:09,250 --> 01:13:11,083
You insult me with your arrogance.

786
01:13:14,708 --> 01:13:16,166
May Nanak's blessings be upon you.

787
01:13:36,750 --> 01:13:38,208
A man from the India Office

788
01:13:38,291 --> 01:13:41,208
offered me 50,000 pounds
to change my mind.

789
01:13:42,166 --> 01:13:44,333
To accept my destiny
as an English subject.

790
01:13:46,875 --> 01:13:49,916
It's not about the money.
It's not about my personal wealth.

791
01:13:51,250 --> 01:13:54,958
It's not about the riches
that give our bodies comfort.

792
01:13:58,333 --> 01:14:00,125
It's about the yearning in my soul…

793
01:14:01,916 --> 01:14:03,000
to be free,

794
01:14:03,458 --> 01:14:06,458
to lead my people
as free soldiers of God's army.

795
01:14:09,541 --> 01:14:11,083
Soldiers of the Khalsa.

796
01:14:12,416 --> 01:14:13,583
I want to belong.

797
01:14:14,041 --> 01:14:15,583
They are watching us.

798
01:14:16,375 --> 01:14:18,333
Our every move, Maharaja.

799
01:14:18,416 --> 01:14:20,250
I know. Let them.

800
01:14:21,583 --> 01:14:22,750
We will go.

801
01:14:23,250 --> 01:14:26,208
We will strike a dagger
in their fat bellies.

802
01:14:26,291 --> 01:14:28,875
Not in their backs, like they did to us.

803
01:14:28,958 --> 01:14:30,916
We will look them in their eyes,

804
01:14:31,125 --> 01:14:33,708
see their dishonesty, their fear,

805
01:14:33,916 --> 01:14:36,625
and then bury that dagger
deep into their flesh.

806
01:14:37,458 --> 01:14:38,666
We will sail for India…

807
01:14:39,916 --> 01:14:41,666
and take back my Khalsa kingdom.

808
01:14:43,583 --> 01:14:45,375
Are you with me, Arur Singh?

809
01:14:47,458 --> 01:14:48,291
Yes, Maharaja.

810
01:15:02,041 --> 01:15:03,416
Is that all, sir?

811
01:15:03,833 --> 01:15:05,166
Yes, that is all.

812
01:15:06,916 --> 01:15:11,791
These four telegrams
are to be sent 24 hours after I leave.

813
01:15:13,375 --> 01:15:15,916
Thank you, sir. Will do so, sir.

814
01:15:17,833 --> 01:15:19,666
God be with you on your journey, sir.

815
01:15:22,250 --> 01:15:23,125
Thank you.

816
01:15:35,333 --> 01:15:37,166
Good day, my good man.

817
01:16:08,791 --> 01:16:10,500
And this one, sir,
is addressed to you personally.

818
01:16:11,958 --> 01:16:13,458
From Lord Kimberley.

819
01:16:20,166 --> 01:16:22,791
"The Maharaja cannot be allowed

820
01:16:22,875 --> 01:16:26,083
to set foot on Indian soil."

821
01:16:29,833 --> 01:16:30,916
See to it.

822
01:16:32,708 --> 01:16:33,541
Yes, sir.

823
01:16:38,500 --> 01:16:41,791
It's important for me
to hold this family together.

824
01:16:43,041 --> 01:16:45,541
Embarking on this journey. A new dream.

825
01:16:45,916 --> 01:16:49,958
They will be real princes and princesses
of a real kingdom.

826
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:52,041
Prince Victor,

827
01:16:52,916 --> 01:16:56,291
one day,
will take my place as the Maharaja.

828
01:16:57,958 --> 01:17:00,583
They need to be
part of the journey, Arur Singh.

829
01:17:02,416 --> 01:17:05,041
When I take the true name of the Khalsa

830
01:17:05,875 --> 01:17:09,250
and embrace
all that it represents within my soul…

831
01:17:11,291 --> 01:17:14,958
They need to witness that.
They need to see its power.

832
01:17:16,625 --> 01:17:18,625
And the desire for them

833
01:17:19,083 --> 01:17:22,250
to become one with me and the Guru…

834
01:17:23,625 --> 01:17:25,208
must come from them.

835
01:17:43,666 --> 01:17:46,208
My sovereign, before quitting England,

836
01:17:46,291 --> 01:17:48,791
I humbly venture to address Your Majesty

837
01:17:48,875 --> 01:17:53,375
in order to convey
the inexpressible gratitude I feel

838
01:17:53,875 --> 01:17:55,875
for all Your Majesty's graciousness,

839
01:17:56,208 --> 01:18:00,166
both to me and mine
during my stay here in this country.

840
01:18:00,250 --> 01:18:03,875
I could not face the pain
that such an event would cause me

841
01:18:03,958 --> 01:18:06,458
if I ventured to take my leave in person.

842
01:18:06,541 --> 01:18:10,166
And therefore I humbly implore
Your Majesty's forgiveness.

843
01:18:10,250 --> 01:18:13,500
Your heartbroken subject, Duleep Singh.

844
01:18:50,541 --> 01:18:55,500
Maharaja Duleep Singh.
I am Brigadier-General Hogg.

845
01:18:55,875 --> 01:18:57,916
You are to come with me, sir.

846
01:18:58,250 --> 01:18:59,791
You are placing me under arrest?

847
01:19:00,750 --> 01:19:04,541
My instructions, sir,
are to escort you off the ship

848
01:19:04,625 --> 01:19:07,416
as your onward passage to India
is not permitted.

849
01:19:08,708 --> 01:19:11,750
Am I to see a difference in an arrest

850
01:19:12,208 --> 01:19:15,208
and what I am being made to do
against my free will?

851
01:19:17,083 --> 01:19:19,750
You will need to place handcuffs
on me, Brigadier.

852
01:19:21,166 --> 01:19:23,500
Because I am your prisoner.

853
01:19:25,875 --> 01:19:28,833
That will not be necessary, Maharaja.

854
01:19:29,958 --> 01:19:33,125
Please, come with me.

855
01:19:39,625 --> 01:19:44,375
I leave this ship unwillingly,
as a prisoner of the English.

856
01:20:15,833 --> 01:20:17,541
How long will you keep me here?

857
01:20:18,208 --> 01:20:21,666
That depends entirely on you, Maharaja.

858
01:20:21,916 --> 01:20:25,333
However, India is not possible.

859
01:20:34,750 --> 01:20:35,666
Maharaja?

860
01:20:37,500 --> 01:20:38,458
They are here.

861
01:20:41,708 --> 01:20:44,291
We will have to find
two more Khalsa Singhs.

862
01:20:44,708 --> 01:20:47,291
There is a transport ship,
just touched the shores.

863
01:20:47,625 --> 01:20:50,541
I hear there are Khalsa Singhs
among the shipmates.

864
01:20:52,666 --> 01:20:56,500
There are nether worlds
beneath nether worlds,

865
01:20:56,583 --> 01:21:00,666
and hundreds of thousands
of heavenly worlds above.

866
01:21:00,750 --> 01:21:03,291
The Vedas say
you can keep searching for them

867
01:21:03,375 --> 01:21:04,750
until you grow weary.

868
01:21:04,833 --> 01:21:05,833
The Scriptures say that there
are 18,000 worlds,

869
01:21:06,208 --> 01:21:08,416
but in reality there is only one universe.

870
01:21:08,500 --> 01:21:10,458
If you try to write an account of this,

871
01:21:10,750 --> 01:21:13,208
you will come to the end of your life
before you finish.

872
01:21:13,291 --> 01:21:15,541
O Nanak, call Him Great!

873
01:21:15,625 --> 01:21:19,166
He Himself knows Himself.

874
01:21:21,041 --> 01:21:25,416
On this very day,
I celebrate my rebirth as a Sikh.

875
01:21:26,458 --> 01:21:29,125
And I thank you, my brothers.

876
01:21:31,750 --> 01:21:35,750
Khalsa belongs to God.
Victory belongs to God.

877
01:21:57,333 --> 01:22:01,500
The children must be relieved.

878
01:22:07,583 --> 01:22:09,375
They will miss you.

879
01:22:14,041 --> 01:22:15,250
As I will.

880
01:22:22,458 --> 01:22:23,541
I'm…

881
01:22:25,208 --> 01:22:26,166
I'm really sorry.

882
01:22:56,291 --> 01:22:59,208
Taste the passion

883
01:22:59,291 --> 01:23:03,000
Of the seasons, dear

884
01:23:03,291 --> 01:23:09,166
For once over fruitless is their search

885
01:23:10,083 --> 01:23:13,500
But once I am gone

886
01:23:13,583 --> 01:23:16,583
I shall not return

887
01:23:17,083 --> 01:23:22,750
Countless times thou shall open the door

888
01:23:23,791 --> 01:23:26,916
Taste the passion

889
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:30,041
Of the seasons, dear

890
01:23:30,583 --> 01:23:36,458
For once over fruitless is their search

891
01:23:37,541 --> 01:23:40,916
But once I am gone

892
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:44,000
I shall not return

893
01:23:44,500 --> 01:23:50,041
Countless times thou shall open the door

894
01:23:51,166 --> 01:23:54,625
Loneliness

895
01:23:54,708 --> 01:23:57,875
Drives me mad

896
01:23:58,458 --> 01:24:02,000
Love turns into an obsession

897
01:24:02,083 --> 01:24:04,500
That finds no cure

898
01:24:04,583 --> 01:24:08,125
Bewildered am I

899
01:24:08,208 --> 01:24:11,666
O' my soul mate

900
01:24:12,208 --> 01:24:15,416
Thy rings tear me

901
01:24:15,500 --> 01:24:21,208
Like daggers apart

902
01:24:21,958 --> 01:24:25,500
Breath shall not be

903
01:24:25,583 --> 01:24:27,500
Vainly will thee

904
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:32,000
Then pillage

905
01:24:32,083 --> 01:24:35,125
Through the dust

906
01:24:35,666 --> 01:24:39,291
Breath shall not be

907
01:24:39,375 --> 01:24:41,875
Vainly will thee

908
01:24:42,625 --> 01:24:45,625
Then pillage

909
01:24:45,708 --> 01:24:48,791
Through the dust

910
01:24:49,583 --> 01:24:51,625
Will I ever see you again?

911
01:25:05,166 --> 01:25:07,875
Yes, I know.

912
01:25:10,208 --> 01:25:11,958
Your destiny and aim.

913
01:25:22,333 --> 01:25:24,500
They cannot keep us
out of our land forever.

914
01:25:25,750 --> 01:25:27,375
And I refuse to go back to England,

915
01:25:28,166 --> 01:25:31,208
a country that I had denounced as an enemy

916
01:25:31,291 --> 01:25:32,875
and no longer our home.

917
01:25:32,958 --> 01:25:34,500
Then what, Maharaja?

918
01:25:37,291 --> 01:25:38,166
Paris.

919
01:25:43,750 --> 01:25:46,125
Ada, thank you for joining me here.

920
01:25:53,083 --> 01:25:56,500
Mr. Patrick Casey, the Maharaja.

921
01:25:57,166 --> 01:26:00,875
The bravest fighting men. Warriors.

922
01:26:01,458 --> 01:26:03,958
Your Sikhs need to fight the right war.

923
01:26:04,041 --> 01:26:07,250
There's nobody that hates the English
more than the Irish.

924
01:26:07,333 --> 01:26:09,000
And we have many friends.

925
01:26:09,541 --> 01:26:12,000
It's an honor to meet you, Maharaja.

926
01:26:14,416 --> 01:26:18,500
Oh, yes.
Please meet General Charles Tevis,

927
01:26:18,583 --> 01:26:20,958
American and an enemy of the English.

928
01:26:21,875 --> 01:26:23,750
An honor, Maharaja.

929
01:26:26,333 --> 01:26:28,958
Have you tried reasoning with the English?

930
01:26:29,375 --> 01:26:31,416
I have tried everything short of begging.

931
01:26:32,583 --> 01:26:35,291
Sometimes even that may not be a bad idea.

932
01:26:35,791 --> 01:26:37,791
I'm surprised
to hear that from you, General.

933
01:26:38,125 --> 01:26:40,666
Perhaps I have seen
way too much bloodshed.

934
01:26:40,916 --> 01:26:43,833
Blood is what it will have to be,
General Tevis.

935
01:26:45,083 --> 01:26:47,000
If that's how you feel,

936
01:26:47,958 --> 01:26:49,541
then that's what it will be.

937
01:26:50,500 --> 01:26:52,166
And it's Charles' words.

938
01:27:00,916 --> 01:27:04,000
Dr. Elie de Cyon,
I wanted to introduce you to the Maharaja,

939
01:27:04,083 --> 01:27:05,625
sovereign to the Sikh nation.

940
01:27:12,541 --> 01:27:14,625
As soon as the Russians
have completed the railway

941
01:27:14,708 --> 01:27:16,208
they are building in Central Asia,

942
01:27:16,750 --> 01:27:18,375
the Russian army, along with myself,

943
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:22,541
will invade India through Afghanistan.

944
01:27:23,458 --> 01:27:25,250
Sikh soldiers in the British Army

945
01:27:25,333 --> 01:27:27,125
will desert and place themselves
under my command.

946
01:27:27,208 --> 01:27:30,083
We need to proceed to Russia, immediately.

947
01:27:30,458 --> 01:27:32,875
Katkov will facilitate a meeting
with the Tsar.

948
01:27:32,958 --> 01:27:34,250
I talked to Zubayr Pasha,

949
01:27:34,666 --> 01:27:36,875
and Sudan is ready to be part of the plan.

950
01:27:37,458 --> 01:27:39,708
And so are Egypt and Turkey.

951
01:27:41,458 --> 01:27:44,000
Native kings of Hindustan
will attack British soldiers,

952
01:27:44,083 --> 01:27:46,208
destroy railway and telegraph lines.

953
01:27:46,541 --> 01:27:49,666
Indians will rise as one
against the British.

954
01:27:50,416 --> 01:27:53,500
On our front, the Irish
will cause havoc for the English,

955
01:27:53,958 --> 01:27:55,708
the likes of which
they've never seen before.

956
01:27:57,541 --> 01:27:58,500
Gentlemen,

957
01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:03,083
the great war against the British
is about to begin.

958
01:28:12,083 --> 01:28:13,125
Everything?

959
01:28:14,083 --> 01:28:16,833
Yes, everything the English need to know.

960
01:28:17,458 --> 01:28:19,500
I will keep you posted.

961
01:28:50,875 --> 01:28:51,791
Duleep!

962
01:28:52,083 --> 01:28:54,416
Ada, they are not going to leave us alone.

963
01:28:54,500 --> 01:28:56,916
Get to the station
and I will meet you there.

964
01:28:57,000 --> 01:28:58,291
Hurry. This way.

965
01:30:17,041 --> 01:30:19,166
Good. You are here.

966
01:30:28,333 --> 01:30:29,375
Patrick Casey.

967
01:30:30,791 --> 01:30:32,500
I am now an Irish rebel.

968
01:30:33,083 --> 01:30:34,625
It is a war, my friend.

969
01:30:34,708 --> 01:30:37,125
In this war,
we are all what we have to be.

970
01:30:37,208 --> 01:30:40,416
We are Irish, French, Russian,
and we are Sikh.

971
01:30:41,666 --> 01:30:43,083
We have a common foe.

972
01:30:43,375 --> 01:30:45,833
Those papers will allow you
to travel into the heart of Russia,

973
01:30:45,916 --> 01:30:48,291
have your meeting with the Tsar,

974
01:30:48,375 --> 01:30:50,250
and raise an army against the British.

975
01:30:50,708 --> 01:30:53,166
And you will get your kingdom back.

976
01:30:56,166 --> 01:30:57,208
Good luck, my friend.

977
01:31:01,458 --> 01:31:04,000
Maharaja, everything is on board.

978
01:31:29,875 --> 01:31:31,416
- Maharaja.
- Mr. Katkov.

979
01:31:31,500 --> 01:31:33,541
Everything is fine, Maharaja.

980
01:31:33,875 --> 01:31:36,500
The Tsar is very well aware
of your presence here in Russia.

981
01:31:37,958 --> 01:31:42,041
It's only a matter of a little time for us
to set a strategic meeting with him.

982
01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:45,625
I understand, but there is
so much that needs to be done.

983
01:31:46,416 --> 01:31:47,333
So many points of interest

984
01:31:47,416 --> 01:31:50,291
that need to be connected and timed
across the world.

985
01:31:51,041 --> 01:31:53,375
And everything
depends on our meeting the Tsar.

986
01:31:54,250 --> 01:31:55,583
He is the key in all this.

987
01:31:56,125 --> 01:31:58,791
I promise,
I will do something very quickly.

988
01:32:04,208 --> 01:32:07,541
I have a heart
Craving for the beautiful country

989
01:32:07,625 --> 01:32:08,708
My soul mates!

990
01:32:08,791 --> 01:32:11,541
To whom do I express my feelings
About this love?

991
01:32:11,625 --> 01:32:13,833
My love

992
01:32:21,541 --> 01:32:26,375
My love for the soul became crazy…

993
01:32:33,375 --> 01:32:34,291
Arur…

994
01:32:35,875 --> 01:32:38,166
come. Sit here.

995
01:32:46,166 --> 01:32:47,833
You must proceed to India.

996
01:32:48,416 --> 01:32:49,875
All arrangements have been made for you.

997
01:32:51,125 --> 01:32:53,000
You are to meet Shashi Bhusan Mukerji.

998
01:32:53,416 --> 01:32:56,958
He has promised funds
raised in the name of the rebellion.

999
01:32:57,791 --> 01:32:58,666
Liberation is not far.

1000
01:33:00,458 --> 01:33:02,791
There are many forces at work in India.

1001
01:33:06,333 --> 01:33:08,541
Your papers and funds for your travels.

1002
01:33:11,875 --> 01:33:12,708
Maharaja.

1003
01:33:13,583 --> 01:33:14,791
As you command me.

1004
01:33:16,541 --> 01:33:19,458
By the grace of God,
we will meet again soon.

1005
01:33:20,958 --> 01:33:25,583
I, Khalsa, belong to God.
Victory belongs to God.

1006
01:33:26,666 --> 01:33:30,833
Mr. Arur Singh,
we are pleased to see you in India.

1007
01:33:32,041 --> 01:33:34,916
As you can see, we are ready now…

1008
01:33:35,833 --> 01:33:37,541
and we are waiting.

1009
01:33:38,583 --> 01:33:41,333
As you know, our Maharaja is in Russia

1010
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,500
and will lead the Russian Army
through Afghanistan,

1011
01:33:46,458 --> 01:33:47,750
into India.

1012
01:33:49,333 --> 01:33:52,000
How many Sikh soldiers
are in Afghanistan with the British Army?

1013
01:33:52,333 --> 01:33:53,791
About 20,000.

1014
01:33:54,750 --> 01:33:57,750
But we have roughly 40,000
spread throughout India.

1015
01:33:57,833 --> 01:33:58,875
Will they join us?

1016
01:33:59,375 --> 01:34:01,875
Yes. Every last one of them,
as well as their commanders,

1017
01:34:02,375 --> 01:34:04,666
have pledged to support the Maharaja.

1018
01:34:05,041 --> 01:34:09,208
They have all sworn an oath
to the Guru Granth Sahib.

1019
01:34:09,291 --> 01:34:12,375
One hundred and twenty five Kuka Singh's
are ready to fight.

1020
01:34:12,708 --> 01:34:15,791
Except for Nepal,
all the native states are with us

1021
01:34:16,125 --> 01:34:19,000
and ready to take up arms
against the British.

1022
01:34:19,791 --> 01:34:22,125
The Sikh kingdom
will finally be liberated.

1023
01:34:34,458 --> 01:34:35,791
Mr. Arur Singh?

1024
01:34:36,666 --> 01:34:37,833
Mr. Mukher Ji.

1025
01:34:38,250 --> 01:34:39,708
You look very tired.

1026
01:34:41,041 --> 01:34:42,125
You've had a long journey.

1027
01:34:42,583 --> 01:34:43,666
I am feeling thirsty.

1028
01:34:43,958 --> 01:34:46,833
Of course. We have much to talk about.

1029
01:34:47,583 --> 01:34:48,583
Please, follow me.

1030
01:34:50,583 --> 01:34:52,583
Kingdoms are not raised overnight,
Mr. Katkov.

1031
01:34:52,666 --> 01:34:55,500
I do understand that.
But, time is what worries me.

1032
01:34:55,583 --> 01:34:56,541
How long?

1033
01:34:57,000 --> 01:34:59,458
I have been here, waiting,
getting impatient.

1034
01:34:59,541 --> 01:35:01,166
Soon, my friend. Soon.

1035
01:35:01,250 --> 01:35:02,750
I have been hearing that
for so many months.

1036
01:35:03,541 --> 01:35:06,833
My people are waiting with eagerness,
but nothing seems to progress on your end.

1037
01:35:09,916 --> 01:35:11,750
I will speak to the Tsar.

1038
01:35:25,583 --> 01:35:28,041
How long do we have to wait for them?

1039
01:35:30,333 --> 01:35:33,166
Katkov has promised
to arrange a meeting with Alexander.

1040
01:35:34,375 --> 01:35:37,625
His efforts are noble.
We must have patience.

1041
01:36:15,458 --> 01:36:16,625
Arur Singh…

1042
01:36:17,208 --> 01:36:20,041
I am going to ask this one more time.

1043
01:36:21,208 --> 01:36:25,708
We know that you have not come to India
for some well-deserved holiday.

1044
01:36:26,416 --> 01:36:28,166
So, speak clearly.

1045
01:36:33,791 --> 01:36:36,625
Who are you to meet here?

1046
01:36:37,166 --> 01:36:40,458
And what is the purpose of your visit?

1047
01:36:52,083 --> 01:36:54,458
How about a glass of brandy?

1048
01:36:55,375 --> 01:36:56,500
With ice?

1049
01:37:19,833 --> 01:37:21,458
He wants brandy.

1050
01:37:22,583 --> 01:37:23,416
With ice.

1051
01:37:26,916 --> 01:37:28,416
Will not talk.

1052
01:37:29,708 --> 01:37:31,375
The likes of him would rather die.

1053
01:37:52,125 --> 01:37:53,416
Let go of me!

1054
01:38:03,458 --> 01:38:04,375
Well, brother…

1055
01:38:07,625 --> 01:38:08,791
Did you ask for brandy, too?

1056
01:38:10,750 --> 01:38:11,916
My brother,

1057
01:38:12,916 --> 01:38:15,833
I wish my demand had been so simple.

1058
01:38:17,500 --> 01:38:19,625
I asked for my country,

1059
01:38:20,166 --> 01:38:23,541
to liberate my motherland
from these foreigners.

1060
01:38:23,625 --> 01:38:26,916
I promised to shed
English and traitor blood.

1061
01:38:29,458 --> 01:38:31,875
Then our dreams have something in common.

1062
01:38:45,625 --> 01:38:46,833
Thakur Singh?

1063
01:38:49,625 --> 01:38:52,833
I hope the food tastes good.

1064
01:39:00,958 --> 01:39:04,875
Clean him up and lay him on his bed.

1065
01:39:21,208 --> 01:39:25,333
God, give me your protection
and destroy my enemies now.

1066
01:39:25,416 --> 01:39:28,416
I pray
that my wish for peace is fulfilled.

1067
01:39:28,500 --> 01:39:31,833
Bless me, God,
and I shall never forsake You.

1068
01:39:31,916 --> 01:39:35,458
Whatever I seek,
I will look for it only in You.

1069
01:39:35,791 --> 01:39:38,416
Liberate us all.

1070
01:39:46,875 --> 01:39:49,791
- How is our daughter?
- She is sleeping.

1071
01:39:55,250 --> 01:39:57,333
There's no news
from Arur Singh or the others.

1072
01:39:58,958 --> 01:40:03,125
Now that Katkov is dead,
the Tsar will not meet us.

1073
01:40:04,750 --> 01:40:08,583
We have to go back to Paris

1074
01:40:09,458 --> 01:40:10,916
and rethink our moves.

1075
01:40:30,416 --> 01:40:35,166
Sir, everybody has been arrested,
killed or banished to Kala Pani.

1076
01:40:36,125 --> 01:40:39,583
The so-called rebellion
of Maharaja Duleep Singh

1077
01:40:40,375 --> 01:40:41,375
has been crushed.

1078
01:40:46,541 --> 01:40:50,750
You will be duly rewarded
for your services to the Crown.

1079
01:40:51,500 --> 01:40:53,791
But, one more thing, Aziz Ud-Din.

1080
01:40:59,416 --> 01:41:00,666
Thank you, sir.

1081
01:41:50,166 --> 01:41:51,958
That's all I could get.

1082
01:42:09,125 --> 01:42:10,708
Maharaja?

1083
01:42:13,708 --> 01:42:15,208
Finally…

1084
01:42:16,541 --> 01:42:19,166
I set eyes on the man behind the roar…

1085
01:42:20,500 --> 01:42:23,500
as I come to deliver you the news
that it is all over.

1086
01:42:23,791 --> 01:42:25,791
It has all come to an end.

1087
01:42:27,541 --> 01:42:30,500
I hate to be the man
known for assassinating a king.

1088
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:35,500
But, what is a king without a kingdom?

1089
01:43:18,083 --> 01:43:20,208
Quickly. Please, take me to a doctor.

1090
01:43:42,416 --> 01:43:44,666
Please, hurry. I am in pain.

1091
01:43:47,166 --> 01:43:48,416
There has to be some doctor available.

1092
01:44:17,375 --> 01:44:18,416
Victor.

1093
01:44:20,333 --> 01:44:21,375
My son.

1094
01:44:24,708 --> 01:44:25,833
You've found time

1095
01:44:33,083 --> 01:44:35,000
to come see me. I am most tired.

1096
01:44:38,583 --> 01:44:40,500
I beg you, Father.

1097
01:44:43,875 --> 01:44:45,500
Write to the Queen.

1098
01:44:47,333 --> 01:44:49,458
There is no other hope.

1099
01:44:51,625 --> 01:44:53,791
You have lost everything.

1100
01:44:55,583 --> 01:44:58,208
We are in extreme debts.

1101
01:45:00,541 --> 01:45:01,958
We are poor.

1102
01:45:03,750 --> 01:45:07,083
Please, ask for the pardon

1103
01:45:07,166 --> 01:45:09,250
so that your pension can be restored

1104
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:13,125
and we can live
with a little sense of dignity.

1105
01:45:13,916 --> 01:45:14,833
Dignity?

1106
01:45:23,250 --> 01:45:26,875
I am the son of the Lion of Punjab.

1107
01:45:29,791 --> 01:45:30,625
And you…

1108
01:45:32,375 --> 01:45:33,666
my blood…

1109
01:45:35,208 --> 01:45:38,208
- his blood…
- All that is now gone.

1110
01:45:39,083 --> 01:45:40,250
Forever!

1111
01:45:42,583 --> 01:45:44,583
Wake up to the truth.

1112
01:45:54,791 --> 01:45:57,666
Arur Singh, you are a free man.

1113
01:45:59,416 --> 01:46:00,833
Go home.

1114
01:46:02,166 --> 01:46:03,791
It's all over.

1115
01:46:07,333 --> 01:46:10,666
And be thankful
we didn't hang you by the neck.

1116
01:46:37,875 --> 01:46:38,958
Maharaja?

1117
01:46:56,166 --> 01:46:58,125
As everyone else in my life…

1118
01:47:01,500 --> 01:47:04,041
you betrayed me too, Arur Singh.

1119
01:47:07,958 --> 01:47:09,500
Why did you come back?

1120
01:47:11,541 --> 01:47:14,000
So that you will know the truth, Maharaja.

1121
01:47:18,208 --> 01:47:19,041
The truth?

1122
01:47:21,625 --> 01:47:24,041
Our people have sold their souls.

1123
01:47:24,541 --> 01:47:26,166
The British are far too clever.

1124
01:47:27,541 --> 01:47:28,500
Yes.

1125
01:47:30,916 --> 01:47:32,333
Is that the truth?

1126
01:47:33,375 --> 01:47:37,000
And the prophecy, Maharaja…

1127
01:47:37,958 --> 01:47:38,875
is false.

1128
01:47:43,083 --> 01:47:44,750
Guru Gobind Singh…

1129
01:47:48,416 --> 01:47:50,083
could not be a false prophet.

1130
01:47:51,375 --> 01:47:53,166
It was the creation of those

1131
01:47:53,833 --> 01:47:57,875
who wanted much more
than what your heart desired.

1132
01:48:00,458 --> 01:48:03,916
So, the prophecy was never his?

1133
01:48:06,541 --> 01:48:07,375
It was not.

1134
01:48:11,708 --> 01:48:13,791
The irony of it all.

1135
01:49:05,833 --> 01:49:07,666
They should have killed me…

1136
01:49:10,333 --> 01:49:11,666
when I was a child.

1137
01:49:13,875 --> 01:49:17,958
Those good Christian men.

1138
01:49:20,750 --> 01:49:23,250
And have history speak of me

1139
01:49:23,333 --> 01:49:26,541
as the queen responsible
for the biggest tragedy all time?

1140
01:49:30,375 --> 01:49:32,375
I have enough to live with.

1141
01:49:38,416 --> 01:49:40,500
All I ever wanted was…

1142
01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:44,208
my childhood.

1143
01:49:46,458 --> 01:49:48,750
And all I ever wanted
was the love of a child.

1144
01:49:51,833 --> 01:49:53,125
My son.

1145
01:49:57,333 --> 01:49:58,541
And now?

1146
01:50:01,458 --> 01:50:02,458
Now…

1147
01:50:05,083 --> 01:50:07,458
we are mere symbols of who we were.

1148
01:50:12,416 --> 01:50:16,083
Forgive me, my son.

1149
01:50:19,625 --> 01:50:21,500
For we have wronged you.

1150
01:50:28,208 --> 01:50:30,875
And now I am so helpless.

1151
01:50:52,583 --> 01:50:55,125
Keep them, my child.

1152
01:51:00,750 --> 01:51:03,916
I have a heart
Craving for the beautiful country

1153
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:05,291
My soul mates!

1154
01:51:05,375 --> 01:51:08,250
To whom do I express my feelings
About this love?

1155
01:51:08,333 --> 01:51:10,458
My love

1156
01:51:17,916 --> 01:51:22,708
My love for the soul became crazy

1157
01:51:34,250 --> 01:51:37,791
My love for the soul became crazy

1158
01:51:37,875 --> 01:51:43,333
Massage the soles of my feet…

1159
01:51:48,958 --> 01:51:50,000
Who are you?

1160
01:51:52,500 --> 01:51:53,958
I am Colonel Hurbon.

1161
01:51:54,750 --> 01:51:56,583
I served your father well.

1162
01:51:57,041 --> 01:51:59,208
And I saved your life.

1163
01:52:04,833 --> 01:52:05,666
Why?

1164
01:52:06,208 --> 01:52:08,291
So that you would rise to be king.

1165
01:52:11,291 --> 01:52:13,166
But, I didn't save you for this.

1166
01:52:17,416 --> 01:52:19,583
I am sorry to disappoint you,

1167
01:52:23,583 --> 01:52:26,083
but there isn't much left in me.

1168
01:52:29,291 --> 01:52:30,875
I tried.

1169
01:52:32,250 --> 01:52:33,125
And now?

1170
01:52:38,083 --> 01:52:42,541
A wave will rise across the Indian soil.

1171
01:52:45,375 --> 01:52:48,583
My Sikh brothers will spill blood.

1172
01:52:49,750 --> 01:52:53,500
Theirs and of their enemy's.

1173
01:52:57,708 --> 01:53:02,875
And the English
will be driven out of India for good.

1174
01:53:06,166 --> 01:53:07,708
That day will come.

1175
01:53:09,083 --> 01:53:11,041
Is that your prophecy?

1176
01:53:12,708 --> 01:53:13,625
No.

1177
01:53:17,041 --> 01:53:18,583
That is my belief.

1178
01:53:38,875 --> 01:53:41,958
O' Nature, in thy lap

1179
01:53:42,041 --> 01:53:44,958
Make me sleep

1180
01:53:46,000 --> 01:53:49,250
O' embrace me, embrace me

1181
01:53:49,541 --> 01:53:51,750
My only kin

1182
01:53:53,000 --> 01:53:56,583
O' Nature, in thy lap

1183
01:53:56,666 --> 01:53:59,208
Make me sleep

1184
01:54:00,041 --> 01:54:03,625
O' embrace me, embrace me

1185
01:54:03,708 --> 01:54:07,000
My only kin

1186
01:54:07,208 --> 01:54:09,333
For my trust

1187
01:54:09,416 --> 01:54:12,958
None could win

1188
01:54:14,416 --> 01:54:17,125
For my trust

1189
01:54:17,208 --> 01:54:19,375
None could win

1190
01:54:21,041 --> 01:54:26,541
My soul is overcome by the lost glory

1191
01:54:28,875 --> 01:54:34,125
My lost country calls out to me…

1192
01:54:39,791 --> 01:54:42,416
May my people forgive me…

1193
01:54:48,208 --> 01:54:50,500
for I could not be the king…

1194
01:54:53,958 --> 01:54:55,708
that I was to be.

1195
01:54:58,083 --> 01:55:00,416
Victory will be yours.

1196
01:55:02,541 --> 01:55:06,291
Believe in him, Guru Gobind Singh.

1197
01:55:20,291 --> 01:55:24,916
India finally gained its independence
from the British on 15 August 1947.

1198
01:55:25,291 --> 01:55:28,833
In the fight for India's independence
a total of 4,771 people were killed.

1199
01:55:28,916 --> 01:55:31,416
In fight with them,

1200
01:55:31,708 --> 01:55:34,583
in total, 3,725 were Sikh.

1201
01:55:35,000 --> 01:55:39,333
This was 1.2 percent
of the total Sikh population.

1202
01:55:39,416 --> 01:55:42,416
After Maharaja Dulip Sigh,

1203
01:55:42,500 --> 01:55:45,541
there was no one left
in the Shere Punjab family.

1204
01:55:45,625 --> 01:55:48,708
On 10th March, 1957, at Lahore,

1205
01:55:48,791 --> 01:55:52,958
after death of daughter Bamba Duleep Sigh,
full family ended.

1206
01:55:53,041 --> 01:55:56,583
In the case of back to Christian religion,

1207
01:55:56,666 --> 01:56:00,208
British government not listening demands.

1208
01:56:00,291 --> 01:56:03,958
After Duleep Singh death,
no one listen Duleep Singh last wish.

1209
01:56:04,041 --> 01:56:06,833
They Suffolk as Christian
rules and revolution.

1210
01:56:07,166 --> 01:56:11,166
Till today, as Indian as per Sikh rule,

1211
01:56:11,250 --> 01:56:14,208
struggling to take his dead body to Punjab
for cremation as per Sikh rites
