        Pakistani Intruder: [on the walky talky] Hello, Gaznavi 3. Why has the firing stopped? Gaznavi 3, come in. Why has the firing stopped?

        Capt. Jalal Akbar: The firing has stopped because Gaznabi has reached his destiny. Leave now or, I swear by Allah, we won't spare you.

        Pakistani Intruder: What's that? Swear by Allah? Are you a Muslim?

        Capt. Jalal Akbar: For you, I am just an Indian.

      Good story, well told
      Enjoyable, good story, well told. Farhan Akhtar has done it again, after his first movie Dil Chahta Hai.

      Hrithik Roshan's character grows up from being a confused young lad to a man with a mission. Shades of An Officer and a Gentleman, Guns of Navarone, and a little of Saving Private Ryan.

      Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy have created more of their world music, and it rocks. The first two songs were fabulous; the other songs should be skipped, I thought.

      As in Dil Chahta Hai, the parents are all ultra-supportive. They also dress and decorate in expensive nouveau handlooms, rattan furniture, slip covers, etc. Boston Brahmin did a good review.

      Very nice and straightforward; none of the Hindu Family Values reactionary material that Bollywood routinely churns out.
