[Title Montage]
It was unbelievable that in the airplane crash that killed Bose...
two of Bose's fellow passengers,
an INA Officer Rahman and a Japanese Officer Nakamura escaped unscathed.
In fact, Bose's confidant Ayar too
was unable to believe that Bose was no more.
I'm telling the truth, Ayar, Netaji's upper body was badly burnt.
Rahman, forget what I think,
no one in India, would believe
that Netaji's no more.
Bose's upper body was badly burnt.
I used my coat to put out the fire.
Everyone had their own versions about the fateful plane crash.
But in the end, all the stories reached one conclusion: Bose's death.
Can we...
fly down Netaji's body to Singapore?
The size of the coffin...
won't fit in the aircraft.
None of us have his dead body.
You performed his last rites without informing us.
Why the rush?
So then we can transport his body by ship.
That won't be possible.
The body is in such a bad condition, it could start decaying any moment.
And the chemicals required to preserve the body...
are not available in Formosa.
Okay. I believe you for the moment that you're telling the truth.
But at least a photograph.
You don't even have a single photo for his family?
Take the photographs.
Don't take photographs of the face.
You couldn't preserve the body because chemicals weren't available.
Also, you performed the last rites in a rush.
You couldn't take a photo of his face as it was badly burnt.
Do you seriously expect me to believe that?
What is that you're not telling us?
[Stanley] What are they not telling us?
It's a British contingent
on its way to Taiwan
to look for Bose!
Where are you, Bose?
Where the hell are you?
Bose has just been released.
We can relax for a couple of days.
-I mean, he will relax for few days. -He's a loose cannon.
Even Gandhi can't control him.
Put all eyes on him.
Yes, sir.
[Stanley] Darbari Lal!
Yes, sir.
The British government's police intelligence had sent
many of their spies behind Bose.
They were waiting for something big to happen.
[Subhash] Faster.
Use both hands. Wait.
Come here. Look ahead.
Okay.
Maintain distance.
Make sure you don't hit each other, we have to hit the Brits!
Hey!
Strike up, down.
On the head and then block!
All right! Let's begin.
Sir, he's teaching them to fight with sticks.
And you're sure it's only sticks?
[Stanley] There are no guns involved...
They had sticks, right? No guns or weapons?
No, sir, but it's confirmed.
Bose has nothing to do with non-violence!
He's building an army!
An army with sticks as weapons?
[Man] Sir, one more thing.
he had organized a camp for the people affected by the flood.
A whole group of spies were tailing Bose.
Bose was a law-abiding and a model citizen.
Stanley was frustrated after what his spies were telling him.
Sir, it's confirmed!
Bose is about to marry the Congress leader Kiran Shankar Roy's sister.
[Man] I have also found out
[Man] that Kiran Shankar Roy will send Bose to England after his marriage
[Man] to study law.
Mr. Bose has resigned from civil services.
Why would he go to London to study law?
[Darbari Lal] You're talking nonsense.
-You wasted his time. Now leave. -[Man] Okay, sir.
Put more men on him, Darbari Lal.
I need good men!
In fact, I want you to be his shadow.
Sir, me?
What information can I extract that these spies couldn't?
You have an edge over them. You know him.
If I knew Mr. Bose,
he also knew me very well.
-[Child] Where do I go? -[Subhash] Right here!
-[Subhash] Good, keep it up! -[Child] Be alert.
-[Child] Come here. -Here!
-I am here. -Right here.
[Child] Come here!
Hey, where are you going? Come here!
-A cup of tea, please! -Sure.
I'll be right back!
Excuse me, my money?
-Aunt! -Subhash.
-How are you? -I'm fine, how are you?
I'm good.
It's raining heavily. Where are you coming from?
From home.
What are you looking at?
Who is it?
He spies for the British.
[Aunt] So what is he doing here?
As if you're starting a movement right here!
-How about some tea? -Sure.
I'll get it for you.
Darbari, Darbari, come here.
Come here.
Here.
-No, I'm fine here. -Take it. It's raining.
Thank you, Mr. Bose.
Have some tea.
-No... -Drink it while it's hot.
Care for a smoke?
No.
Take it, I won't tell Stanley.
No, thank you.
So what did you find out about me?
Mr. Bose, you're very stubborn!
You'll again create problems for the British.
Will you tell this to Stanley?
He'll realize it.
-You are very... -Intelligent, I know.
Listen, go home. It is raining, you'll catch a cold.
Take this umbrella with you.
Bring it back when you spy on me tomorrow.
Okay, I'll leave right now.
And listen...
a spy should always do the job from a distance.
Go now.
Mr. Bose was a master of disguise, he could vanish in a blink of an eye!
We followed Mr. Bose for months,
but we couldn't find anything.
-Go home, pal! -Sure.
-Go home! -Whatever Bose was planning behind doors
was about to change everything.
[Subhash] I am coming!
-Hello, sir. -Hello.
Here's your parcel. Can you sign here?
Done?
-Do you want water? -No, sir.
See you.
-Hey, postman! -Yes.
-What were you doing inside? -Delivering a parcel.
-A parcel for? -For Mr. Subhash.
Oh, Mr. Subhash. Let me see.
Okay, great. Can I keep this?
-What do you mean? -You may leave.
-All right, off you go. -What a nuisance!
Darbari Lal says a uniform got delivered to Bose's house.
Apparently, it was a GOC's uniform
that was mistakenly delivered to Fort Williams.
The officers at Fort Williams had quite a laugh about it.
It was an army uniform.
Doesn't that bother you?
Maybe Bose likes to dress up! Who knows?
[Darbari Lal] Sir, even I feel the same.
Mr. Bose always tries to spite us.
[Darbari Lal] It was just one uniform.
It's not a big issue.
No one knew why Bose ordered khaki uniforms.
Before anyone could find the answer,
in 1928 the streets of Calcutta witnessed the unthinkable.
Mr. Bose was marching on the street with two thousand people.
The British and the Congress government were reduced to mute spectators.
-Your Excellency, had we known... -Nonsense!
How could you have not known two thousand people would descend upon our city
wearing uniforms and carrying weapons?
That chap Bose has made a perfect arse out of us!
You have got to get a grip on things.
[Stanley] Do you know you're a traitor to the empire?
But he gave me money. I made him clothes.
It was not just clothes but uniforms.
You have raised a standing army against the British Raj!
But, I was just trying to make...
[Stanley] Some Indian comes and gives you money, you make him uniforms!
-I was, I was... -To fight against your own people!
Do you have any idea how much trouble are we in?
I'll make sure that you never do business in this city again.
-But, please listen... -Shut up!
You didn't tell anyone about this.
What should I say?
We Indians should have our own army!
-[Man] Pratik, say something. -It's my country, my people...
why should I inform or ask anyone?
Subhash, weapons and chaos are against our rules!
Who made the rules anyway?
And what have we achieved with these rules?
Do you know the real reason behind our slavery?
It's your thinking and nonviolence.
What do you want to do, Subhash?
We are talking with the British government.
For years, we've been talking, but have we achieved freedom?
But this might scare them.
That's good.
They should be scared for a change.
For now, all of you look more petrified to me.
You're about to make a huge mistake. It will upset Gandhiji.
The British are upset too.
Gandhiji...
Mr. Bose along with two thousand people...
attacked Fort Williams,
do you think it's justified?
Mr. Gandhi...
doesn't this go against your basic tenets of nonviolence?
In your country England,
don't they have the Bertram Mills Circus?
That is all it was. A circus.
-So, we have dried mix vegetable. -Can I have a bite?
Enough.
[Darbari Lal] Mr. Bose, you have to come with us.
Can I eat first?
Eat it at the police station.
Wait. Let him finish his dinner.
I thought your boss had forgotten about me.
So, what's the charge this time?
-Come with me, you'll get your... -[Sarat] Subhash!
I'll get you out on bail tomorrow morning.
It's Friday. You won't get bail for the next three days.
You see, the British are getting smarter.
Mother, pack my dinner for the jail. And pack a little more.
-Darbari likes mix vegetables. -No, I won't eat.
What's the matter?
You've have been chasing me for months. What's there to hide?
Also, I think betrayal is not new to you.
I mean, for people like you.
So, now you've got yourself a uniform.
Last time, when we were selling you khadi, you had a problem.
And now that we're buying khaki from you people, you still have a problem.
You descended on the streets of Calcutta with two thousand people.
What makes you think you can do that?
Because it's my country.
And I am free to do whatever I want.
I don't need anyone's permission.
Do you really think you can get away with this?
Mr. Stanley.
I always get away.
[Stanley] April 1928, Subhash Chandra Bose.
Dangerous enemy of the British Raj!
He can't be controlled by Congress.
They have an army of two thousand natives today.
Their numbers are going to surge.
What is the news from Taiwan?
Bose may still be alive.
[Man] Are you sure?
[Man] If he returns to India now neither the British government
nor the Indian Congress would be able to stop him.
No one has seen this file.
[Stanley] Kinji Watanabe says that he saw Bose get on the plane with four big boxes,
5 feet by 2 feet, all filled with the INA gold.
How much gold do you think that would be, Darbari Lal?
People have given gold, diamonds and ornaments in huge amounts to the INA.
-Women have given jewelry in kilos. -He was carrying so much gold!
But wasn't he going to Singapore to surrender?
[Stanley] So why was he carrying so much gold?
Stan...
Is it that Bose chap?
[Woman] Aren't you getting a little obsessed now?
[Woman] Just get done with it, will you?
We're getting late for the show. Let's go.
Stanley.
You're not listening to me.
Sorry, dear, what?
He's the greatest escape artist ever!
Wish I could see him in person.
Who?
Many believed
that Bose was carrying 11 kilos of gold in four boxes.
But Stanley believed
it was not possible to have only 11 kilos of gold in four boxes!
About 11 kilos of gold were recovered from briefcase.
that Bose carried on the plane.
Sir, I don't understand.
He was carrying four giant boxes, 5 feet by 2 feet.
It means...
You don't carry 11 kilos of gold, in four huge boxes!
Bose escaped!
The crash was a ruse!
