story of Kavya who never understood why it was difficult to
speak the truth...Its the story of Akash for whom living the
rules was the only way to live life. And it's the story of

very ambitious individuals who have contrasting views on
life. Nevertheless, this one case will change their lives...
forever. The case takes them to Srinagar. While Aakash, for

Siddhant Chaudhary is referred as Sid Age Group: 27
Years old (Rahul Bose):Rahul
Bose Siddharth, the main protagonist of our film is
a rebellious, adventurous, immature, intelligent and
reckless young army lawyer.
Sid lost his father Brig. Choudhary at a very young
age. The fact that the death of his father is being
celebrated with such great pride makes him unhappy
to join the army and a bit disappointed with his
mother. The only person who Sid thinks is a support
to him is his best friend Akash. |
 |
|
| Sid
shares a very cordial relationship with Akash's fiance. Sid
got into Army by chance and not by desire and that's why
wants to leave it, leave it as soon as possible, leave it to
accomplish his desire to become a Bungee Jumping Instructor
in New Zealand. |
|
As Sid
and Akash approach their first case, we see that Sid still
carries along his aloof, immature and disinterested
attitude. With the progress of the movie and the entry of
Kavya in Sid's life, there happens to be a sudden change in
his overall outlook. This is when we get to see the other
side of Sid who is ready to fight and take control over
situation. He changes. He changes to an extent that he even
thinks of law to be an adventurous profession that he wants
to be in the army now and he changes from nobody to
somebody. |

position of authority. When a tragic incident happened in

as Kaavya Age group: 22years old (Minissha Lamba):
Minissha Lamba Kavya is a very bright, young,
upcoming, focused, beautiful journalist. She is a go
getter and wants to achieve great goals in the field
of journalism. Her character is very sorted out
since the beginning. She knows what she wants and
she works hard for it. She makes Sid realize his job
responsibilities and she makes him believe the fact
that his profession and his job can really save
Javed's life, who is innocent. |
 |
|
|
She has
always been a very passionate person. In fact she is an over
enthusiastic journo. She doesn't mind getting into trouble
to get her facts right and know the truth. She is lovely,
spunky and a fun loving girl.
From
being a friend, her character develops as Sid's love
interest as the story progresses. |

Group:25 years old (Deepak Dobriyal):Deepak
Dobriyal Captain Javed Khan, a young, honest, brave
army officer who can give his life for the country.
In the beginning of the movie Javed is portrayed to
be a very quite, intense, dedicated man who is death
sentenced and he himself has given up on it.
Javed is a 25 years old Muslim army officer. His
Father was a subedar and it was the proudest moment
for him to see his son becoming an officer. Javed's
mother is a proud woman too, she would rather
sacrifice his son for the sake |
|
| honor
of the country and his husband then to have him come back
dishonorably discharged from armed forces. Javed's belief in
the army too was stupendous.
Javed is
an honest, religious and brave man. He is a stout, strong
and a tough looking man. He totally trusts the system and is
completely driven by Armed Forces. He is disciplined,
follows army protocol yet he will not stand any injustice
done to anyone innocent. He is a courageous man who if need
be will give up his life to protect the honor and pride of
the country and Army. |
