00:00:31I want to play for my country and make India proud.
00:00:37I want to go to the Olympics and win a medal.
00:00:42This was my dream since I was a kid.
00:01:00I want to play for my country and win a medal.
00:01:26Nine bullets.
00:01:28From head to toe, all over my body.
00:01:35But still you...
00:01:39Yes, I am alive.
00:01:42Uncle, you didn't even take that much medicine.
00:01:47Sorry sir, I am late for the puncture.
00:01:50Sit down.
00:01:57What happened after that?
00:02:05Commander, everyone is coming for the surprise visit.
00:02:08Clean up quickly.
00:02:10Who kept the batman here? Move him away.
00:02:13Fix this table. Put it on the corner.
00:02:21Get rid of that dust.
00:02:23Quickly.
00:02:25Why is Petkar's shirt so dirty?
00:02:27Change the bedsheet.
00:02:29Quickly.
00:02:41Who tied the knot?
00:02:44Please, welcome sir.
00:02:46Jai Hind sir.
00:02:54Jai Hind sir.
00:03:16Jawan, are you okay?
00:03:21Jawan, are you okay?
00:03:24Jawan.
00:03:26What are you saying?
00:03:28What are you doing? Leave me.
00:03:30I want to go back to my country.
00:03:32No, no, no. Guns down.
00:03:34Are you out of your mind? This is your country.
00:03:36He is your commander.
00:03:38I am not crazy.
00:03:40I know how to wear the uniform of the Indian army.
00:03:42You are unconscious since two years.
00:03:44Don't you remember your name?
00:03:46Leave the commander.
00:03:48I am not afraid of the enemy.
00:03:50We are not enemies. You are in India.
00:03:52This is Udhampur's army hospital.
00:03:54Come.
00:04:09You are still unconscious after two years.
00:04:12You have breath problem.
00:04:17Come on, Jawan.
00:04:19Please forgive me, sir.
00:04:21It's okay.
00:04:24♪
00:04:29Ah.
00:04:30Ah.
00:04:31What's the case?
00:04:32He was shot nine times in the 1965 war, sir.
00:04:35In the last two years,
00:04:36he has only regained consciousness for three or four times.
00:04:39Ah.
00:04:40This bullet is still lodged in his spine.
00:04:43Because of which, below the waist...
00:04:46♪
00:04:49This bullet is the most difficult operation.
00:04:53Ah.
00:04:54Ah.
00:04:55Ah.
00:04:56There's no bladder control either, sir.
00:04:58Ah.
00:04:59Ah.
00:05:00Ah.
00:05:01Ah.
00:05:04Sit.
00:05:05Ah.
00:05:06Ah.
00:05:07Ah.
00:05:08Ah.
00:05:09Ah.
00:05:10Don't lose hope, soldier.
00:05:12We'll send you to the best hospital in the Armed Forces.
00:05:15I.N.H.S. Ashwini, Bombay.
00:05:17You'll get operated there, and you'll be discharged.
00:05:19You'll be fine.
00:05:21Am I right?
00:05:51You come here like a corpse,
00:05:53and run off on your own.
00:05:57If you need anything,
00:05:59come straight to me.
00:06:01I'll help you get it.
00:06:05You help me with the return.
00:06:07I'll help you a little.
00:06:09I'll help you a little.
00:06:11Your pension will continue, right?
00:06:13Look, Mr. Murli,
00:06:15people see this white coat as a patient
00:06:17and his medicine.
00:06:19But a person needs more, right?
00:06:21Yes.
00:06:23I fulfill that need.
00:06:25So don't worry.
00:06:27From now on,
00:06:29this is your new home,
00:06:31and these are your neighbors.
00:06:33Hey, Topaz, stop!
00:06:35Stop right there.
00:06:37I'm not moving, sister.
00:06:43What is this, Topaz?
00:06:45What is it, sister?
00:06:47Is this all wrong?
00:06:49Yes, it's very wrong, sister.
00:06:51There's no alcohol in Bombay.
00:06:53Hide this, or the police will come
00:06:55and catch you.
00:06:57Why would they catch me?
00:06:59I know, Topaz.
00:07:01You're the one who brings
00:07:03these things to him.
00:07:05Useless bugger you are.
00:07:07This is Major Gonzalvez.
00:07:09He takes sleeping pills every day.
00:07:11If this is mixed with him,
00:07:13he'll be blessed with God.
00:07:15God bless you, sister.
00:07:19Where do you think you're going, man?
00:07:21And this?
00:07:23What is this?
00:07:25Hey, sister.
00:07:27What kind of a naked picture
00:07:29are you showing me?
00:07:31What will this new guy think about you?
00:07:33This chatterbox
00:07:35sits on the toilet every day
00:07:37and watches this.
00:07:39Anyway, he's been operated
00:07:41on both his hands.
00:07:43If he sees pictures like this,
00:07:45his heart will beat so fast
00:07:47that it'll be over.
00:07:51I am not done with you yet.
00:07:55And you,
00:07:57stay away from this Topaz.
00:07:59He's a gambler.
00:08:01He drowns his money in the pot,
00:08:03but he also drowns
00:08:05everyone else's money.
00:08:07That's enough, sister.
00:08:09I've never drowned anyone's money.
00:08:11Tell me,
00:08:13whose money did he put in the pot?
00:08:15Mine, sister.
00:08:19Wow!
00:08:21He's not a gambler.
00:08:23It's just a game of fate.
00:08:25A game of fate
00:08:27is called gambling, Topaz.
00:08:41Where is Murlikant Petkar's house?
00:09:11Oh, my God!
00:09:23Hi.
00:09:25Oh, Murli.
00:09:29How are you?
00:09:31How are you?
00:09:45Lie down.
00:09:47Calm down.
00:09:49Lie down.
00:09:51Doctor,
00:09:53did you take out the bullet?
00:09:57No, Murli.
00:09:59Actually, the bullet is stuck in such a place
00:10:01that if you had taken it out,
00:10:03you could have been hurt even more.
00:10:05Your entire body could be paralyzed.
00:10:13How will I walk?
00:10:15Murli, you were shot nine times.
00:10:17You have to consider yourself lucky
00:10:19that you're alive.
00:10:23I'm a sportsman, sir.
00:10:25Sir, what can I do?
00:10:29What can I do?
00:10:37Hey, Murli.
00:10:39Nothing will happen.
00:10:41Look at me.
00:10:43Look at me.
00:10:45Once you come home,
00:10:47everything will be fine.
00:10:49Do you understand?
00:10:51The mirror will fix everything.
00:10:53Don't cry.
00:10:55Don't cry.
00:10:57Don't worry.
00:11:15It's a nice place, isn't it?
00:11:23Murli, I...
00:11:25I spoke to the doctor.
00:11:27Do you know what he said to me?
00:11:29He said,
00:11:31Murli,
00:11:33if you swim,
00:11:35your body will get stronger.
00:11:37You should swim every day.
00:11:39You'll get well soon.
00:11:43I don't want to stay here.
00:11:45I want to go home.
00:11:55Why do you want to go home?
00:11:57Why do you want to die?
00:12:01Me and my father
00:12:03used to sit at the shop all day long.
00:12:05And then
00:12:07the kids
00:12:09and everything else.
00:12:15You haven't come to the village
00:12:17for so many years.
00:12:19If you
00:12:21come to the village
00:12:23you'll have
00:12:25nothing.
00:12:27You don't have a bathroom,
00:12:29a toilet,
00:12:31a nurse,
00:12:33a doctor,
00:12:35a doctor's wife,
00:12:37a nurse's wife,
00:12:39a nurse's wife,
00:12:41a nurse's wife,
00:12:43a nurse's wife,
00:12:45a nurse's wife,
00:12:47a nurse's wife,
00:12:49a nurse's wife,
00:12:51you can't come home.
00:12:55You have a home.
00:12:59But you should think
00:13:01about it.
00:13:03You...
00:13:05Everything will be fine here.
00:13:09Don't worry about mom.
00:13:11I'll tell mom
00:13:13that the doctor and everyone
00:13:15told me that if Murli stays here
00:13:17he'll get well soon.
00:13:19He'll take care of me.
00:13:49I don't know
00:13:51why

00:14:49the call is coming from the court
00:14:51it's time to sign the papers
00:14:53I will have to pick it up
00:14:55Hello!
00:14:57Mr. Kamble.
00:14:59Have you removed a knife?
00:15:01Yes. I've been there for a long time.
00:15:03Hello!
00:15:05No, Mr. Kamble has gone.
00:15:07It's been 20 minutes.
00:15:09Yes, the knife
00:15:11has been removed.
00:15:13Mr. Kamble has gone.
00:15:15Where's Kamble?
00:15:17Kamble sir is not answering his phone.
00:15:19Kamble sir is not answering his phone.
00:15:21Yes, Kamble sir.
00:15:23Yes, yes.
00:15:25Sometimes he doesn't have the range.
00:15:27Sorry, yes.
00:15:35Baba, you never told me
00:15:37that Jagannath did this.
00:15:39It's a bigger thing than that
00:15:41that I
00:15:43have never told anyone.
00:15:45What Baba?
00:15:49Maybe
00:15:51you still don't get it.
00:15:55It was my birthday.
00:15:57That day.
00:15:59Happy birthday to you.
00:16:03There was nothing left in life
00:16:05to celebrate.
00:16:07But today, Topaz saw
00:16:09the date of my birthday in the record.
00:16:11So I had to cut the cake.
00:16:13Happy birthday.
00:16:17That's great, Murli Baba.
00:16:19You've grown up now.
00:16:21Now tell me.
00:16:23What do you want as a gift?
00:16:25I'll get it for you.
00:16:27I'll get a bottle of whiskey.
00:16:31A bottle of whiskey?
00:16:33No.
00:16:35Murli Baba.
00:16:39You don't drink.
00:16:43You just said
00:16:45that I've grown up.
00:16:47No, no.
00:16:49It's a dangerous job.
00:16:51You saw that day.
00:16:53That sister.
00:16:55She threw a bomb.
00:16:57If I get caught,
00:16:59I'll lose my job.
00:17:01Look.
00:17:03Will you get me a bottle of whiskey?
00:17:07If you get me a bottle of whiskey,
00:17:11I'll give you money for the pot.
00:17:13For the pot?
00:17:17No, no.
00:17:19It's a dangerous job.
00:17:21How much?
00:17:23100 rupees.
00:17:33100 rupees?
00:17:45Happy birthday, Murli Baba.
00:17:47Do you know?
00:17:49Relax, Baba.
00:17:51Last night,
00:17:53God himself
00:17:55told me in a dream.
00:17:57He said,
00:17:59Topaz,
00:18:01if you play the matka
00:18:03on the number I say,
00:18:05you'll definitely get a jackpot.
00:18:07Should I wish you a happy birthday too?
00:18:11Wish everyone as many as you have left.
00:18:13Huh?
00:18:15But I can't
00:18:17ask God for anything these days.
00:18:19So, whatever he says,
00:18:21I'll have to bet one number higher than that.
00:18:23Hey!
00:18:25You can bet twenty-one numbers higher than that.
00:18:27So what?
00:18:29No one has ever won in all these years.
00:18:31And if someone wins,
00:18:33then God is merciful.
00:18:35That's it then.
00:18:37Let's see
00:18:39if God is merciful.
00:18:41Yes.
00:18:43I'm leaving.
00:19:11Last five minutes.
00:19:13Come on, come on.
00:19:15I want to bet 100 rupees.
00:19:17100 rupees?
00:19:19On whom?
00:19:21Two, three, four.
00:19:27I want to bet another 100 rupees.
00:19:29Another 100?
00:19:31On Tikki, Duggi, Tiggi.
00:19:37Whose pocket money did you bring?
00:19:39He's a smart man.
00:19:53The Ratan Khatri brothers are here.
00:19:55And today,
00:19:57we'll find out
00:19:59who is
00:20:01the lucky winner.
00:20:05Who will pick the first number?
00:20:07Who will pick the first number?
00:20:15The first number.
00:20:17Number two, Duggi.
00:20:19Duggi!
00:20:21Double the money.
00:20:23The second number.
00:20:25Number three, Tiggi.
00:20:33We'll put up a check pot today.
00:20:35I told Murali Baba
00:20:37to bet on Duggi, Tiggi, Tiggi.
00:20:41Today's last number.
00:20:45The last number.
00:20:47Number one, Ikka.
00:20:49Ikka, Duggi, Tiggi.
00:20:53Who is the lucky winner
00:20:55who bet on
00:20:57Ikka, Duggi, Tiggi?
00:20:59Murali Baba.
00:21:01Murali Baba.
00:21:03Get up.
00:21:05Murali Baba.
00:21:09How much did you drink?
00:21:11Murali Baba, get up.
00:21:13Your check pot is on.
00:21:15You won
00:21:1744,000 in the pot.
00:21:19How much?
00:21:2144,000.
00:21:23Go and get the money.
00:21:27Shut up.
00:21:29I'll show you.
00:21:33Are you okay, Murali Baba?
00:21:39I'm out of breath.
00:21:41I want to pee.
00:21:43How did you know?
00:21:45I don't know.
00:21:47I'm feeling the pressure.
00:21:49Pressure?
00:21:51You're feeling the pressure again?
00:21:53What is this, Murali Baba?
00:21:55You want to pee
00:21:57in the middle of the night?
00:21:59You're a happy man.
00:22:01I'll get the money tomorrow.
00:22:13No one has won
00:22:15Ikka, Duggi, Tiggi for 10 years.
00:22:19You're a man of God.
00:22:21Not everyone gets this chance.
00:22:23If you touch it,
00:22:25it will become gold.
00:22:27Touch it.
00:22:31Ratan Khatri was right.
00:22:33I had a deal with God.
00:22:37He didn't want to kill me.
00:22:41In Kanderi, people from Patil
00:22:43tried to kill me.
00:22:45I survived.
00:22:47I was shot nine times.
00:22:49But I survived.
00:22:51I was shot 30 times
00:22:53with a bottle of whiskey.
00:22:55I vomited.
00:22:57I decided that day
00:22:59that I would live.
00:23:03I would fight
00:23:05for whatever it took.
00:23:09I gave it my all.
00:23:11I couldn't stand up and box.
00:23:13So I started swimming.
00:23:17And then Topaz said,
00:23:19water doesn't stop anyone,
00:23:21Murali Baba.
00:23:23Even fish don't have feet.
00:23:27But I swim now.
00:23:31I didn't know
00:23:33I would die.
00:23:35The war is a very bad thing,
00:23:37Chotu.
00:23:39Nothing of a warrior
00:23:41goes to waste.
00:23:43Everyone who fights
00:23:45loses.
00:23:49My first and last friend
00:23:51is on my shoulder.
00:23:53If he hadn't helped me in the train that day,
00:23:59I would have been in the village.
00:24:03I don't know if I would have been there.
00:24:08He would have been right in front of me.
00:24:10Tomorrow, I will take you somewhere.
00:24:27Where?
00:24:29Brothers, you are the king of India.
00:24:34The king of the enemies.
00:24:36Dara. Dara. Dara.
00:24:39Dara. Dara. Dara.
00:24:50Did you see?
00:24:52He is a man of 40 years.
00:24:55But he still fights.
00:24:57Do you know why?
00:25:00Because he had a dream that hasn't come true yet.
00:25:04To become a world champion.
00:25:13He considers him his first teacher.
00:25:17I always wanted to be like him.
00:25:21So what happened now?
00:25:23What?
00:25:24If you wanted to be like him, why did you stop?
00:25:29What are you saying, Ali sir?
00:25:31You know...
00:25:32No.
00:25:34I don't know.
00:25:36But I know that when he can fight at the age of 40,
00:25:39why did you stop?
00:25:41Ali sir, I can't walk.
00:25:43So?
00:25:44So what?
00:25:45You stopped living.
00:25:46I didn't stop living.
00:25:47If you didn't stop living, why did you stop dreaming?
00:25:49Why did you stop dreaming?
00:25:52I don't understand what you are saying.
00:25:55You don't have to dream in this condition, sir.
00:25:58You just have to live.
00:26:01Live?
00:26:05Have you ever heard of a man who has no legs,
00:26:08but can lift a weight of 310 kilos?
00:26:11A man who has no legs, but can jump 5 feet high.
00:26:16A woman whose body was crushed by a truck
00:26:18and lost both her hands.
00:26:19But she wins a gold medal in cycling.
00:26:23Have you heard of such stories?
00:26:27I have heard.
00:26:30Such stories are told in the Paralympics.
00:26:36Paralympics?
00:26:42Chotu,
00:26:43dreams end when we stop seeing.
00:26:46Your childhood dream is not over yet.
00:26:49If you work hard again,
00:26:51you can still reach the Olympics.
00:26:59Learn.
00:27:01Learn from your first teacher.
00:27:05The champion falls,
00:27:07but doesn't stop, Chotu.
00:27:11The real victory is not in defeating the other player.
00:27:14The real victory is in defeating the voice inside you
00:27:17that tells you every day that you have already lost.
00:27:20Win with that voice.
00:27:24Then you will become a real champion.
00:27:26Then you will get a medal in the Olympics.
00:27:37This is what you have to become.
00:27:39This is what you have to become.
00:27:40Will you become one?
00:27:45Will you become one?
00:27:47Will you?
00:27:48Will you become a champion?
00:27:51I will.
00:27:53I will become...
00:27:55I will become a champion.
00:28:14My heart's desire is to defeat myself
00:28:19and win.
00:28:21Now lay down every test in my path.
00:28:27Oh, life!
00:28:29The journey of difficulties will never depart now.
00:28:34Oh, life!
00:28:36Look at your destination.
00:28:42My heart has turned its head.
00:28:45Now where will it stop?
00:28:49My heart's desire is to defeat myself.
00:28:53Now lay down every test in my path.
00:28:58Oh, life!
00:28:59The journey of difficulties will never depart now.
00:29:04Oh, life!
00:29:05My heart's desire is to defeat myself.
00:29:10Now where will it stop?
00:29:28I don't care if no one is with me.
00:29:32As long as I have the courage.
00:29:36As long as I have the courage to dream.
00:29:43I don't care if I have to bow my head.
00:29:47Let yourself fly.
00:29:51Fly like a string.
00:29:54Let time flow.
00:29:59Pick up the sky.
00:30:02Oh, life!
00:30:04Take me to your home.
00:30:07Let's see what happens.
00:30:10Oh, life!
00:30:12The journey of difficulties will never depart now.
00:30:16My heart has turned its head.
00:30:20Now where will it stop?
00:30:24My heart's desire is to defeat myself.
00:30:28Now where will it stop?
00:30:32My heart has turned its head.
00:30:36Now where will it stop?
00:30:40My heart's desire is to defeat myself.
00:30:45Now where will it stop?
00:31:02Now where will it stop?
00:31:32Shut up!
00:31:34Why do you want to arrest him?
00:31:36If he tells a lie, he'll lose his uniform.
00:31:39What's the big deal?
00:31:42Sir, I have a fantastic idea.
00:31:45By God, I'm telling you.
00:31:46If you say, I'll tell you.
00:31:48Shut up!
00:31:49Shut up!
00:31:50Did you hear me?
00:31:51I'm talking to you. Shut up!
00:31:52What's the idea?
00:31:53Bring him here.
00:31:54I'm coming, sir.
00:31:55Open this.
00:31:56Let's sit and talk.
00:31:59Tell me.
00:32:01Sir, the idea is that we catch a journalist.
00:32:05What?
00:32:06Yes, a journalist.
00:32:07We tell him to write a good article about Mr. Petkar.
00:32:11If it's true, you get the credit.
00:32:14And if it's not, it's the journalist's fault.
00:32:17Very simple.
00:32:19Am I right?
00:32:23Sir, think about it.
00:32:24He's a scoundrel.
00:32:25Hey!
00:32:27Hit his tongue.
00:32:28What?
00:32:29What?
00:32:48Hello, Mr. Petkar.
00:32:51What are you doing here?
00:32:53You didn't come again.
00:32:55Mr. Kamble was looking for you.
00:32:57He sent a big journalist with us from Taluka.
00:33:01He wants to know your story.
00:33:04Tell him I don't want the award.
00:33:09You don't want it?
00:33:12Did you hear that?
00:33:14Did you hear that?
00:33:16He didn't want the award for himself.
00:33:18He wanted it for the good of the village.
00:33:20So that we can build some roads here.
00:33:23Now he's asking for it himself.
00:33:25He doesn't want it.
00:33:27He doesn't want it.
00:33:33And he was building the village road here?
00:33:35He's building the road here.
00:33:36And all the villagers are working with him.
00:33:39I see.
00:33:40And ma'am, he doesn't want the original award.
00:33:43He refused it.
00:33:45He doesn't want the original award?
00:33:47Yes, ma'am.
00:33:53Can you do me a favor?
00:33:54Udvikant Petkar.
00:33:56You've matched the test timing of the Commonwealth Games.
00:34:00Congratulations.
00:34:01This is really impressive.
00:34:04You could have been eligible for the Paralympics.
00:34:08But...
00:34:11I'm sorry, Murli.
00:34:13The Indian Olympic Committee has decided
00:34:15that no one will be sent to the games this year.
00:34:20I don't understand, sir.
00:34:21When the timing matches, then what is the reason?
00:34:23Mr.
00:34:24Matching the best timing of the Commonwealth Games
00:34:26and winning the Paralympics are two different things.
00:34:29Do you know
00:34:30what the 50-meter freestyle swimming record in the Paralympics is?
00:34:3437.90 seconds.
00:34:36And in the Commonwealth Games, 39.85 seconds.
00:34:40The difference between these two seconds means
00:34:43that right now, there are at least 15 swimmers
00:34:46who are ahead of Murli Khan.
00:34:48If you want to win the Paralympics,
00:34:50you have to beat the world's top swimmers,
00:34:53which is impossible.
00:34:56Look, Murli.
00:34:57Our war with Pakistan ended a year ago.
00:35:01The government treasury is empty.
00:35:03And the little money we get in the name of sports,
00:35:06we've been told to use it wisely
00:35:10and spend it on the regular Olympics.
00:35:12And you don't understand the Paralympics.
00:35:19Because
00:35:20there are no regular Olympics.
00:35:23There are no regular people either.
00:35:25We can walk around freely.
00:35:27Why waste money on them?
00:35:29No, Murli.
00:35:30It's not like that.
00:35:31It's the truth, sir.
00:35:32We live in a society
00:35:34just to be pitied.
00:35:37But we don't have to be pitied.
00:35:39We live to be pitied.
00:35:42No?
00:35:44If people like us start doing something great in life,
00:35:49who will the society pity?
00:35:51No one thinks that
00:35:53a man is fighting for his life
00:35:55by showing courage.
00:35:57On his own.
00:36:00No.
00:36:01He is repeatedly told
00:36:03to do so much for him,
00:36:06when he is not even a regular.
00:36:10All of us are regular as well, sir.
00:36:16Hope is regular.
00:36:18Emotions are regular.
00:36:20Courage is regular.
00:36:26It's just that your eyesight
00:36:29is not regular.
00:36:39Murli.
00:37:09Such a big chair.
00:37:11And such small thoughts.
00:37:28Yes, comrade.
00:37:29How is your revolution going on?
00:37:32It will come.
00:37:33One day it will definitely come.
00:37:35All the best.
00:37:36Tell me.
00:37:37How did you remember this soldier friend of yours?
00:37:39Your posting is still the same, isn't it?
00:37:41Sikandarabad EME.
00:37:42Yes.
00:37:43It's been two months now.
00:37:44What happened?
00:37:45I needed the details of an old soldier.
00:37:49Look at your record section and tell me.
00:37:52He is a very interesting person.
00:37:54If he is telling the truth.
00:37:56When was he here?
00:37:58Around 1964.
00:38:00Fifty years ago?
00:38:03Then he wouldn't even be in the computer records.
00:38:06Okay.
00:38:07Send me the details.
00:38:08I'll go to the filing room.
00:38:09Thanks.
00:38:10Right away.
00:38:32I'll call back.
00:38:36Yes, Major.
00:38:37I have found Murli Kanth Petkar's file.
00:38:40But whatever you had sent,
00:38:42there is a lot more information in it than that.
00:38:45I don't believe it either.
00:38:47In fact, now I will have to take this file to the army headquarters.
00:38:50Headquarters?
00:38:52What's in it?
00:38:58Murli.
00:39:00Murli.
00:39:02Where is Murli?
00:39:05What happened?
00:39:30Mr. Murli Kanth Rajaram Petkar.
00:39:33The Indian Olympic Committee has unanimously decided
00:39:38that you will participate in the 4th Paralympic Games
00:39:42which will be held in Munich, West Germany,
00:39:45in August 1972.
00:39:55You will represent India in the swimming competition.
00:40:03You will represent India in the swimming competition.
00:40:33You will represent India in the swimming competition.
00:40:59Chotu.
00:41:01Where are you going in the middle of the night?
00:41:03I woke up, sir.
00:41:05We will be in Mumbai by 8 in the morning.
00:41:07Shall we go to the airport?
00:41:09It's 4.30 here, Chotu.
00:41:30Let's go.
00:42:01Why isn't all this in our records?
00:42:03Sir, all the sports cards from before 1980 are in the old files.
00:42:07And I found all this in the archives.
00:42:09Confirm these details of Murli Kanth Petkar
00:42:11from the German Olympic Committee immediately.
00:42:14Sir.
00:42:31I...
00:42:33I...
00:42:35I...
00:43:00I...
00:43:11Chotu.
00:43:12Chotu.
00:43:14Are you okay?
00:43:17What's going on?
00:43:19A terrorist attack.
00:43:21Some are dead and some are alive.
00:43:26They've now said that there were 11 hostages.
00:43:28Two were killed in their rooms yesterday morning.
00:43:32Nine were killed at the airport tonight.
00:43:36The games of the 20th Olympiad have now been officially suspended.
00:43:42Tomorrow morning in the huge Olympic Stadium
00:43:44there will be a memorial service...
00:43:47What did he say?
00:43:52The Olympics have been cancelled.
00:43:5411 athletes have been killed.
00:43:5911 athletes have been killed.
00:44:04Yes.
00:44:05The German Olympic Committee says
00:44:07that the terrorist attack in Munich that year
00:44:09was the reason why the Olympics were suspended for a while.
00:44:13And then the Paralympics were shifted from Munich to Heidelberg.
00:44:17Whatever Murli Kanth Petkar did in Heidelberg
00:44:20has no record in India.

00:45:15INDIAN OLYMPICS
00:45:19INDIAN OLYMPICS
00:45:23INDIAN OLYMPICS
00:45:27In lane four, the world record holder from Poland, Andrej Seraf.
00:45:32INDIAN OLYMPICS
00:45:35In lane five, the Commonwealth champion, Andrew Nicholls.
00:45:39In India's opening, the only competitor, Murli Kanth Petkar.
00:45:43Chotu, the timing of six people in this race is better than yours.
00:45:49You will have to be in fourth position to reach the next round.
00:45:53Let's go, son.
00:45:54Finally, in lane eight, we have John Lennon.
00:45:56Yes!
00:46:03INDIAN OLYMPICS
00:46:08Take your marks.
00:46:17Kusum's first 50-metre freestyle hit.
00:46:26Murli Kanth's bad start in the last position.
00:46:29Belgium's Jespers are now ahead of Poland's Seremak.
00:46:34All swimmers have now crossed the half-way mark.
00:46:38Murli Kanth is still in sixth position.
00:46:40He has to catch up to qualify for the next heat.
00:46:46At least I'm in fourth position.
00:46:49I think India will once again be disappointed in swimming.
00:46:54INDIAN OLYMPICS
00:46:58Murli Kanth suddenly caught up.
00:47:00And this situation changed.
00:47:04France's Boquet is now in fifth position.
00:47:09In his last race, Murli Kanth Petkar is in fourth position.
00:47:13He is very far from Roger Bates.
00:47:15Murli Kanth is giving his all.
00:47:17INDIAN OLYMPICS
00:47:21Murli Kanth is getting closer to Bates.
00:47:23His distance is getting shorter with every stroke.
00:47:28Murli Kanth is just one stroke away.
00:47:33Murli Kanth and Bates are now on equal footing.
00:47:42And this is the photo finish.
00:47:44Murli Kanth Petkar gave his all.
00:47:46But he was late in catching up.
00:47:51Here are the results.
00:47:53Seremak is at the top.
00:47:54After him is Nicholls.
00:47:55And in third place is Jespers.
00:47:57Now we are waiting for the fourth name.
00:47:59Who will go to the next heat?
00:48:01England's Bates or India's Murli Kanth Petkar?
00:48:07Tension is high.
00:48:09MURLI KANTH PETKAR
00:48:12Murli Kanth Petkar.
00:48:14Yes, friends.
00:48:15India's young swimmer is in the next heat.
00:48:38This is a story that is hard to believe.
00:48:43But it is a story that needs to be told.
00:48:49Murli Kanth Rajaram Petkar.
00:48:54This is the story of a man
00:48:56who came out of the darkness of obscurity
00:48:58and went back into the darkness of obscurity.
00:49:02Today, 50 years later,
00:49:04it is important to bring this story out of the darkness.
00:49:07It is important to bring it to you.
00:49:10Who is Murli Kanth Petkar?
00:49:12And from what soil is he made?
00:49:18The start of the second heat.
00:49:19Murli Kanth's better start this time.
00:49:21Murli Kanth is in fifth position.
00:49:23Murli Kanth is leaving the Belgian Jespers behind.
00:49:26But New Zealand's Nicholls is still ahead of both.
00:49:29The first three swimmers will go to the finals from here.
00:49:33Murli Kanth is currently in fourth position.
00:49:35The Jespers are giving him a hard time.
00:49:39Murli Kanth is catching up.
00:49:41And leaving New Zealand's Nicholls behind,
00:49:43Murli Kanth is now in third position.
00:49:45Will Petkar be able to qualify for the finals
00:49:48after getting a tough challenge from New Zealand and Belgium?
00:49:51Poland's Seremak is in first position again.
00:49:54West Germany's Ulbricht is in second position.
00:49:56And India's Murli Kanth Petkar is in third position.
00:49:59That means he will be in the finals for sure.
00:50:11The small alarm is going off.
00:50:13Let's go.
00:50:14Let's go.
00:50:15Let's go.
00:50:16Let's go.
00:50:17Let's go.
00:50:18Let's go.
00:50:20Chotu, turn off the alarm.
00:50:24Chotu.
00:50:39It's a race today.
00:50:41Get up.
00:50:44Chotu.
00:50:46Get up.
00:50:47How much more will you sleep?
00:50:51Chotu.
00:51:00Chotu.
00:51:02Chotu.
00:51:04Chotu.
00:51:16What happened, sir?
00:51:18You fainted?
00:51:22Chotu.
00:51:24What happened?
00:51:26What happened?
00:51:28I'm fine, sir.
00:51:31How did you bleed?
00:51:34What is this?
00:51:38I fell that day.
00:51:41So...
00:51:42I got hit.
00:51:46Where did you get hit?
00:51:48On my head, sir.
00:51:49Where else?
00:51:50Where else?
00:51:53I'm fine, sir.
00:51:56You got hit where you were shot in the war.
00:51:58You had a skull fracture.
00:52:00Your injury has opened up.
00:52:01Get ready.
00:52:02We'll go to the doctor.
00:52:04Let it be, sir.
00:52:07You idiot.
00:52:09Why don't you understand?
00:52:11You got hit on the edge of the pool by mistake in the race.
00:52:13Do you know what will happen?
00:52:16Nothing will happen, sir.
00:52:17You'll die.
00:52:18I won't die, sir.
00:52:19I won't die.
00:52:20I don't know if I'll die if I get into the swimming pool or not.
00:52:23But if I don't get into the pool today,
00:52:25or if I kill you,
00:52:26I'll definitely die, sir.
00:52:38Ali sir.
00:52:39All the athletes here,
00:52:41they must have been told over and over again
00:52:44that if you can't do this, then you can't do that.
00:52:48But no one listened to them.
00:52:51That's why they're here.
00:52:52That's why I'm here.
00:52:56People have been telling me since I was a kid
00:52:59that I can't do anything.
00:53:02I'm not a champion.
00:53:03I'm Chandu.
00:53:08They'll make fun of me in the village.
00:53:11Chandu champion.
00:53:12Chandu champion.
00:53:13Chandu champion.
00:53:21I want to fight today, sir.
00:53:24For every Chandu who wants to become a champion.
00:53:29For every Chandu who can become a champion.
00:53:35You told me
00:53:37that the real victory
00:53:38is not in defeating an athlete.
00:53:44The real victory is in defeating that voice
00:53:47that tells you every day that you've already lost.
00:53:56I also want to win with that voice, sir.
00:54:00I also want to win with that voice.
00:54:09And today's news.
00:54:12In the 4th Paralympics in West Germany,
00:54:15India's Murlikant Petkar
00:54:18will take part in the swimming finals.

00:58:28Murlikant Petkar is now in 3rd position.
00:58:34Leaving Peter Albrecht behind,

00:58:41Who would have thought that one day,
00:58:42a swimmer from India would compete with a world champion like Andres Saramac
00:58:45for a gold medal?
00:58:51Only a few seconds remain before the end of the race.
00:58:53With every stroke, Murlikant is increasing his speed.
00:58:59Come on!
00:59:01Murlikant is now on a par with Saramac.
00:59:13And this time, a new history.

00:59:24A historic day for Indian sports.
00:59:27And a new world record.

00:59:52And moving ahead of New Zealand's Andrew Nichols,
00:59:54Murlikant is now in 2nd position.
00:59:57Who would have thought that one day,

01:00:06With every stroke, Murlikant is increasing his speed.

01:00:21The gold medal goes to Murlikant Petkar of India.
01:01:17The dream of Murlikanth Pedgar was finally fulfilled that day.
01:01:23But this story, which sounded impossible,
01:01:26was soon buried in the pages of time.
01:01:30It is necessary to remove the layer of sand on it
01:01:34so that the story of Murlikanth can find its rightful place in history.
01:01:41Mr. Murlikanth, my name is Vishwas Patia.
01:01:44I am the Additional Secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs.
01:01:47You wanted to apply for the Arjun Award.
01:01:49But the Government of India does not want to give you the Arjun Award.
01:01:55You deserve a bigger award for what you have done for this country.
01:02:01The President of India wants to honour you with Padma Shri.
01:02:05Padma Shri?
01:02:06Yes, Padma Shri.
01:02:09Papa?
01:02:11The sky was coloured by the colours of the festival.
01:02:18The world was filled with light.
01:02:25The story of Murlikanth Pedgar is the story of a free India.
01:02:30The year is 1947.
01:02:33The situation is such that no one believes that this country will survive.
01:02:39It is a matter of distance.
01:02:42But India fights.
01:02:44With every situation.
01:02:45With every incident.
01:02:47Similarly, Murlikanth fights.
01:02:50With every situation.
01:02:51With every incident.
01:02:54Neither India nor Murlikanth wanted to give up.
01:02:58Because both had the same dream.
01:03:01To become something.
01:03:03To do something.
01:03:05To prove wrong all the doubts, questions and ridicules of the world.
01:03:13And to say the opposite.
01:03:15Why are you laughing?
01:03:35Why are you laughing?
01:03:50You are, you are, you are, you are the champion
01:04:03Fly a little bit, desire is dancing in my heart

01:05:43This world is in your fist, you have written a story
01:05:51The light is searching for you, the moon wants to be your home
01:05:59The paths are saying, never let the journey end
