A Story of an Army Man

Chapter 1

FADE IN:

EXT. WAR ZONE – DAY

The screen is filled with chaos as the sounds of gunfire and explosions reverberate through the air. Indian SOLDIERS, led by KABIR SHARMA (30s, ruggedly handsome, strong), are on a covert mission to infiltrate a Pakistani camp. Tension is high; every shadow could hide an enemy.

KABIR

(Shouting)

Move, move! We can’t let them escape!

MOMENTS LATER, a fierce battle ensues. Kabir, displaying remarkable leadership and bravery, coordinates his troops, taking down enemies with precision. His face reflects determination and a hint of pain as he fights for the memory of his fallen brother.

MONTAGE:

EXT. WAR ZONE – LATER

After a fierce struggle, Kabir and his team emerge victorious. Cheers erupt around him, but Kabir stands apart, his face a mask of mixed emotions.

KABIR

(voiceover)

Aaj maine apne bhaiya ki maut ka badla liya... Aur India ki ek aur jeet hui hai.

As the team prepares to return home, Kabir, visibly injured but proud, reflects on the past.

FLASHBACK TO: KABIR'S HOME – DAY (1 YEAR AGO)

Kabir stands in his family home, his brother ROHIT (30s, charismatic) draped in a KAFAN. The family mourns; a deep silence fills the room, punctuated only by sobs.

KABIR

(voice trembling)

Main tumhe kabhi nahi bhool sakta, bhai!

He clutches a framed photo of them together, a mix of grief and anger fueling his resolve.

BACK TO PRESENT:

Kabir walks through the streets of Mumbai, his injuries fresh, but a glimmer of hope shines in his eyes. Suddenly, a name flickers in his mind...

KABIR

(in his mind)

Samaira...

EXT. MUMBAI – SHOPPING DISTRICT – DAY (1 YEAR AGO)

SAMAAIRA (mid-20s, beautiful, intelligent) walks with confidence, wearing a stunning black and red saree that accentuates her figure. She radiates beauty even without makeup. Today, she’s shopping with her younger sister, her demeanor playful yet determined.

SAMAAIRA

(Frustrated)

Yeh kya hai? Galat dress de diya!

She storms out of the store to exchange it, her sister trailing behind. Suddenly, she notices KABIR across the street, engrossed in capturing street photography.

SAMAAIRA

(thinking)

Yeh kya kar raha hai? Kya yeh meri photo le raha hai?

They lock eyes, an electric moment that seems to pause time. Kabir, intrigued, raises his camera slightly, trying to capture her essence.

EXT. SHOPPING DISTRICT – LATER

Samaira, irritated, drags her sister to the shop. When they arrive, they find the shopkeeper is missing. In the chaotic crowd, she catches glimpses of Kabir, who is still photographing the vibrant scenes around him.

SISTER

(Smirking)

Samaira, kya tumhein us ladke se kuch kehna hai?

Samaira rolls her eyes but can't shake off the feeling of curiosity. As they leave, she glances back to find Kabir disappearing into the college campus nearby.

EXT. COLLEGE CAMPUS – NEXT DAY – MORNING

Samaira, with a resolve in her eyes, heads to the college, waiting impatiently. Her heart races as she hopes to see Kabir again. Suddenly, he appears, and their eyes meet.

KABIR

(Smiling, playful)

Hiii! Tum wahi ho na kal raat wali? Kya tum mera peecha toh nahi kar rahi? Haha, kidding! Main Kabir Sharma.

SAMAAIRA

(Smiling back)

Nahi, Kabir. Main aapka peecha nahi kar rahi. Mujhe aapse baat karni thi.

Kabir’s COACH approaches, eyeing Samaira with curiosity.

COACH

(With a grin)

Kabir, yeh kaun hai? Kya tumhare dost hai?

KABIR

(quickly, with a wink)
