'''''Student of the Year 2''''' is a 2019 Indian [[Hindi]]-language [[teen film|teen]] [[Romance film|romantic]] [[comedy]] [[drama film]] written by [[Arshad Sayed]], directed by [[Punit Malhotra]], and produced by [[Karan Johar]], Hiroo Yash Johar and [[Apoorva Mehta]] under the banner [[Dharma Productions]], with [[Fox Star Studios]] serving as distributor and co-producer. A sequel to the 2012 film ''[[Student of the Year]]'', it stars [[Tiger Shroff]], [[Tara Sutaria]], and [[Ananya Panday]], alongside [[Aditya Seal]] and Harsh Beniwal in the supporting roles. The film follows Rohan Sachdev, a college student in a quest to become Student of the Year. Heavily panned by critics and audiences alike, it holds a rating of 6% on [[Rotten Tomatoes]].<ref name="rottentomatoes.com">{{Cite web|url=https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/student_of_the_year_2|title=Student of the Year 2 (2019)|via=www.rottentomatoes.com}}</ref>

''Student of the Year 2'' was announced in October 2017. Initially, Malhotra and Shroff were to collaborate for a different film; when they found the final script unsatisfactory, they tweaked it and planned to make it a sequel. It marks the debuts of both Sutaria and Panday and pursues a plot that is unrelated to its predecessor (though [[Manjot Singh]] and [[Sahil Anand]] reprised their roles as Dimpy and Jeet Khurana respectively). [[Principal photography]] for the film began in April 2018 at [[Dehradun]], and ended in September 2018. The film's soundtrack was composed by [[Vishal-Shekhar]], with lyrics written by [[Anvita Dutt Guptan]], [[Kumaar]] and Vayu, and released under the banner [[Zee Music Company]].

''Student of the Year 2'' was theatrically released in India on 10 May 2019. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, with the script, unreal situation and unrealistic depiction of Indian schools and colleges thus receiving criticism; However, Shroff's action sequences were praised. As of 7 June 2019, it has earned {{INR|link=yes}}981.6 million worldwide, against a budget of {{INR}}850 million, including promotion and advertising costs. The film was a flop at the box office.<ref name="movietalkies.com">{{cite web|url=https://www.movietalkies.com/movies-reviews/student-of-the-year-2/|title=student of the year (2019)|via=movietalkies.com}}</ref>

==Plot==
{{long plot|date=October 2020}} 

Rohan Sachdev ([[Tiger Shroff]]), a middle-class student at Pishorilal Chamandas College, decides to go to St. Teresa High School, a college for the affluent and talented, after his childhood sweetheart, Mridula Chawla ([[Tara Sutaria]]), transfers there. He gets a scholarship in the college and is very happy. Mridula, now going by the name Mia, initially avoids Rohan in a desperate attempt to become famous. Still, the two begin a relationship when Rohan wins the college over by showing his sports skills.

Rohan becomes friends with marry Manav Singh Randhawa ([[Aditya Seal]]), a popular, affluent, Student and reigning Student of the Year. However, he is at odds with Manav's sister Shreya ([[Ananya Panday]]), a popular mean girl who detests him and often plays pranks on him. She tricks his Pishorilal friends into showing up at Manav's birthday party, where they are insulted, causing a rift between them and Rohan. After one of her pranks gets her in trouble with her aloof father, Sukesh ([[Chetan Pandit]]), Rohan tries to make peace with Shreya, but she refuses, saying she does not need his sympathy.

At the college, Rohan-Mia and Manav-Shreya are coupled up in an upcoming dance competition where Mia wants to win to gain popularity. At the same time, Shreya intends to fulfill her dream of enrolling at a dance academy in London. Manav and Shreya win the contest after Mia falters during a step. When Rohan consoles Mia, he instead finds her getting intimate with Manav and realizes that Manav, knowing Mia had a crush on him, had planted her to spoil Rohan's performance since he saw him as a threat to his image. Rohan is expelled from St. Teresa after punching Manav and is subsequently beaten up by Manav's friends before being thrown out. Initially discouraged and struggling to deal with what he sees as Mia's betrayal, an enraged Rohan, eventually fights back and crowd challenges Manav, saying he, not Manav, will be winning the Student of the Year trophy.

Rohan returns to Pishorilal, where his old friends treat him with contempt. Shreya, who is impressed by Rohan's sincerity, reveals to his friends that she set them up and convinces Rohan to join her in a national dance competition, hoping she can study at a dance school in London. The two become friends as they practice and win the dance competition. Meanwhile, Shreya reveals her mother died upon her birth, causing her father to believe she was cursed and detested her. Mia tries to win back Rohan after leaving Manav when he cheats on her. Shreya reveals that she's also in love with Rohan, which results in a heated argument between Mia and Shreya over Rohan, culminating in Shreya spilling coffee over Mia accidentally in a fit of anger and Rohan asking Shreya to leaves furious. Though Shreya thinks Rohan will go back to Mia, he comes to her house the following day and defends Shreya to Sukesh, revealing their dance victory.

During the Dignity Cup opening ceremony, a fight breaks out between Pishorilal and St. Teresa when Rohan's friends tease Manav and his team, ending in Rohan's teammate rival Abhishek being seriously injured. However, when Rohan beats up Manav to defend Abhishek, they make amends, and the group decides to work together to win the Dignity Cup, training hard. When Shreya met Abhishek in the hospital, seeing her, Mia held Rohan's hand to show Shreya that she and Rohan had patched up. There, Shreya apologizes to Mia. When Mia asks her about her love for Rohan, Shreya calls it a schoolgirl crush and, blessing them with happiness, leaves college. Rohan leaves Mia's hand and follows Shreya asking her if she is okay devastated. She thanks him and reveals she is going to London to graduate from the London School of Dance at the end of the term. At this juncture, Rohan professes his love for her, but she refuses and goes. However, Mia realizes that she has lost Rohan for good.

Pishorilal, usually last, manages to climb up the ranks and gets to the final against St. Teresa. On the night of the second-day event, Mia expresses her happiness and tries to kiss Rohan, but he turns his face and tells her he doesn't want to patch up with her, saying it is time he is focused on accomplishing something. Although upset, she accepts his decision and supports Rohan in his fight. The two part as friends.

The next day, before the final, Rohan confesses his love for Shreya for a second time, and she accepts after he tells her that Mia is abductes just his friend and she is his present and future, and the two unite. Shreya and Mia support Pishorilal in the match. During the Kabaddi match, Manav engages in foul play against Pishorilal, but at Rohan, who becomes enraged helps the team fight back and win the Dignity Cup, defeating St. Teresa. Pishorilal celebrates their first-ever win in history while Manav is angry. Rohan and Shreya embrace, which Mia sees and is sad. However, she leaves smiling, knowing Rohan's dream of winning Student of the Year has come true. Pishorilal celebrates their first-ever victory, and Rohan becomes Student of the Year, fulfilling his champion dreams.

Johar denied the news and stated that the reports were "baseless and untrue".<ref name="khatter" />

The announcement did not reveal the rest of the cast; Media reports speculated that either [[Disha Patani]] or [[Ananya Panday]], daughter of [[Chunky Pandey]], would play the leading lady opposite Shroff.<ref name="indiatoday.intoday.in" /><ref name="indexp" /> In April 2018, Johar announced that the film's female leads would be Panday and [[Tara Sutaria]], and it would be both their film debuts.<ref name=":0 Prior to confirming ''Student of the Year 2'' as her film debut, Sutaria had auditioned for the role of [[Princess Jasmine]] in Disney's ''[[Aladdin (2019 film)|Aladdin]]'' (2019), but lost it to [[Naomi Scott]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/bollywood/student-year-2-star-tara-sutaria-reveals-auditioned-princess-jasmine-will-smith-starrer-aladdin/ |title=Student of the Year 2 star Tara Sutaria reveals she had auditioned for Princess Jasmine in Will Smith starrer Aladdin |date=2 May 2019 |website=[[Bollywood Hungama]] |access-date=2 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190502092718/https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/bollywood/student-year-2-star-tara-sutaria-reveals-auditioned-princess-jasmine-will-smith-starrer-aladdin/ |archive-date=2 May 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref> Television actor Abhishek Bajaj made his film debut by playing a friendly rival to Shroff's character.<ref name="bajaj">{{Cite news |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/television/abhishek-bajaj-student-of-the-year-2-5263170/ |title=Abhishek Bajaj to play Tiger Shroff's rival in Student of the Year 2 |last=Farzeen |first=Sana |date=17 July 2018 |work=[[The Indian Express]] |access-date=5 August 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180805203028/https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/television/abhishek-bajaj-student-of-the-year-2-5263170/ |archive-date=5 August 2018 |url-status=live}}</ref> Harsh Beniwal, a YouTuber, also makes his film debut as a [[Sikh]] student; in preparation for the role, he put on weight and grew a beard.<ref name="beniwal">{{Cite news |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/harsh-beniwal-student-of-the-year-2-5672390/ |title=YouTube sensation Harsh Beniwal makes Bollywood debut with Student of the Year 2 |date=12 April 2019 |work=[[The Indian Express]] |access-date=9 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190413140114/https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/harsh-beniwal-student-of-the-year-2-5672390/ |archive-date=13 April 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref>

Malhotra stated that the two films have unrelated storylines: "The intention of the film is not to make this a Me Too of first part, so Tiger. It’s a fresh take on the subject. It’s more about sports and action". Malhotra took experience from his time as a student at Mumbai's [[H.R. College of Commerce and Economics]], but made the film version much grander. Malhotra was initially supposed to work on a different film with Shroff, but two-three months before filming, they scrapped the project and wrote a new script, a sequel to ''Student of the Year''.<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bollywood/punit-malhotra-on-student-of-the-year-2-we-were-supposed-to-make-a-very-different-film-with-tiger/articleshow/69119815.cms |title=Punit Malhotra on Student of the Year 2: We were supposed to make a very different film with Tiger |first=Himesh |last=Mankad |author-link=Himesh Mankad|date=1 May 2019 |work=[[Mumbai Mirror]] |access-date=1 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190501080745/https://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bollywood/punit-malhotra-on-student-of-the-year-2-we-were-supposed-to-make-a-very-different-film-with-tiger/articleshow/69119815.cms |archive-date=1 May 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref> In response to accusations that the film raised unhealthy expectations for college life, Shroff said, "What you see here is a fun school.

The film's soundtrack was composed by [[Vishal–Shekhar]] with lyrics written by [[Anvita Dutt Guptan]], [[Kumaar]] and first-time collaborator Vayu, and was released under the banner [[Zee Music Company]].<ref name="jio" /> Reviewing the soundtrack, Pratishruti Ganguly of ''[[Firstpost]]'' wrote, "Unfortunately, tracks like "Hook Up Song" and "Mumbai Dilli Ki Kudiyan" perhaps indicate that the understanding of the "jawaan" [{{trans|youth}}] pulse is a tad misguided in this film".<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/student-of-the-year-2-music-review-vishal-shekhars-power-packed-lineup-is-marred-by-misguided-notions-of-youth-6586321.html |title=Student of the Year 2 music review: Vishal-Shekhar's power-packed lineup is marred by misguided notions of 'youth' |last=Ganguly |first=Pratishruti |date=8 May 2019 |work=[[Firstpost]] |access-date=11 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190509224708/https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/student-of-the-year-2-music-review-vishal-shekhars-power-packed-lineup-is-marred-by-misguided-notions-of-youth-6586321.html |archive-date=9 May 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref>

The song "Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani", originally sung by [[Kishore Kumar]] and composed by [[R. D.

''Mumbai Dilli Di Kudiyaan'', although released as the second song, was not used in the film, acting only as a promotional song, while ''Main Bhi Nahin Soya'', which was released only with the full audio jukebox, was instead seen in the film, picturized on Shroff. Pakistani singer [[Atif Aslam]] recorded his version way earlier in November 2018 but in the [[2019 Pulwama attack]], Arijit Singh had to replace Aslam for the soundtrack version of the film. Aslam's version for the song will release in the future.

Ananta Samhita

2026-04-15T12:06:13Z

172.68.242.40: Many misinformation was given about the book, changed those parts, with solid information. Have gotten a copy the book myself, hence all the information are credible.

{{Unreferenced stub|auto=yes|date=December 2009}}
{{Hindu scriptures}}
In Hinduism, the '''''Ananta Samhita''''' is a scripture, known to be a part of [[Pancaratra]] [[Hindu Agamas|agama]]. It is popular among Gaudiya Vaisnavas, and is believed to be authoritative scripture like the "[[Narada]] Pancaratra" and Brahma Samhita, among [[Gaudiya Vaisnava]]s.

Recently a blasphemous claim was made by some, of it being a recently created scripture, authored by Ananta Vasudeva, a disciple of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur, founder of the Gaudiya Math. Please see https://gosai.com/writings/greater-than-the-upanisads-and-the-vedas where Srila Sridhara deva Goswami of Sarasvata Gaudiya Math confirms this book was written by his godbrother Ananta Vasudeva.

However, a work of this work is quoted by [[Bhaktivinoda Thakura]], preceding Ananta Vasudeva by two generations, in his [[Sri Navadvipa Mahatmya]], ch. 2, and [[Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur]], the guru of Ananta Vasudeva, in his commentary to [[Chaitanya Bhagavata]] 1.1.46.
It's also quoted by [[Ishana Nagara]], the household servant of [[Sacimata]], in [[Advaita Prakasha]], ch. 4 and 10. The book, Advaita Prakash is atleast 5 centuries old, and its manuscripts are well preserved across libraries of Bengal, such as Asiatic Society, Bangiya Sahitya Parishat. Thus, this proves the book's authenticity. It's also noteworthy that its also catalouged under the [[Catalogue Of Pancaratra Samhita Swami Narayana Aksharpith Gujarat 2002 : Makarand Joshi : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive https://share.google/6KEvqni9SwdgCznRx|Pancaratra Texts by BAPS]]...

''Student of the Year 2'' was announced in October 2017. Initially, Malhotra and Shroff were to collaborate for a different film; when they found the final script unsatisfactory, they tweaked it and planned to make it a sequel. It marks the debuts of both Sutaria and Panday and pursues a plot that is unrelated to its predecessor (though [[Manjot Singh]] and [[Sahil Anand]] reprised their roles as Dimpy and Jeet Khurana respectively). [[Principal photography]] for the film began in April 2018 at [[Dehradun]], and ended in September 2018. The film's soundtrack was composed by [[Vishal-Shekhar]], with lyrics written by [[Anvita Dutt Guptan]], [[Kumaar]] and Vayu, and released under the banner [[Zee Music Company]].

''Student of the Year 2'' was theatrically released in India on 10 May 2019. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, with the script, unreal situation and unrealistic depiction of Indian schools and colleges thus receiving criticism; However, Shroff's action sequences were praised. As of 7 June 2019, it has earned {{INR|link=yes}}981.6 million worldwide, against a budget of {{INR}}850 million, including promotion and advertising costs. The film was a flop at the box office.<ref name="movietalkies.com">{{cite web|url=https://www.movietalkies.com/movies-reviews/student-of-the-year-2/|title=student of the year (2019)|via=movietalkies.com}}</ref>

==Plot==
{{long plot|date=October 2020}} 

Rohan Sachdev ([[Tiger Shroff]]), a middle-class student at Pishorilal Chamandas College, decides to go to St. Teresa High School, a college for the affluent and talented, after his childhood sweetheart, Mridula Chawla ([[Tara Sutaria]]), transfers there. He gets a scholarship in the college and is very happy. Mridula, now going by the name Mia, initially avoids Rohan in a desperate attempt to become famous. Still, the two begin a relationship when Rohan wins the college over by showing his sports skills.

Rohan becomes friends with Manav Singh Randhawa ([[Aditya Seal]]), a popular, affluent, Student and reigning Student of the Year. However, he is at odds with Manav's sister Shreya ([[Ananya Panday]]), a popular mean girl who detests him and often plays pranks on him. She tricks his Pishorilal friends into showing up at Manav's birthday party, where they are insulted, causing a rift between them and Rohan. After one of her pranks gets her in trouble with her aloof father, Sukesh ([[Chetan Pandit]]), Rohan tries to make peace with Shreya, but she refuses, saying she does not need his sympathy.

Rohan-Mia and Manav-Shreya are coupled up in an upcoming dance competition where Mia wants to win to gain popularity. At the same time, Shreya intends to fulfill her dream of enrolling at a dance academy in London. Manav and Shreya win the contest after Mia falters during a step. When Rohan consoles Mia, he instead finds her getting intimate with Manav and realizes that Manav, knowing Mia had a crush on him, had planted her to spoil Rohan's performance since he saw him as a threat to his image. Rohan is expelled from St. Teresa after punching Manav and is subsequently beaten up by Manav's friends before being thrown out. Initially discouraged and struggling to deal with what he sees as Mia's betrayal, an enraged Rohan eventually fights back and crowd challenges Manav, saying he, not Manav, will be winning the Student of the Year trophy.

Rohan returns to Pishorilal, where his old friends treat him with contempt. Shreya, who is impressed by Rohan's sincerity, reveals to his friends that she set them up and convinces Rohan to join her in a national dance competition, hoping she can study at a dance school in London. The two become friends as they practice and win the dance competition. Meanwhile, Shreya reveals her mother died upon her birth, causing her father to believe she was cursed and detested her. Mia tries to win back Rohan after leaving Manav when he cheats on her. Shreya reveals that she's also in love with Rohan, which results in a heated argument between Mia and Shreya over Rohan, culminating in Shreya spilling coffee over Mia accidentally in a fit of anger and Rohan asking Shreya to leave. Though Shreya thinks Rohan will go back to Mia, he comes to her house the following day and defends Shreya to Sukesh, revealing their dance victory.

During the Dignity Cup opening ceremony, a fight breaks out between Pishorilal and St. Teresa when Rohan's friends tease Manav and his team, ending in Rohan's teammate rival Abhishek being seriously injured. However, when Rohan beats up Manav to defend Abhishek, they make amends, and the group decides to work together to win the Dignity Cup, training hard. When Shreya met Abhishek in the hospital, seeing her, Mia held Rohan's hand to show Shreya that she and Rohan had patched up. There, Shreya apologizes to Mia. When Mia asks her about her love for Rohan, Shreya calls it a schoolgirl crush and, blessing them with happiness, leaves college. Rohan leaves Mia's hand and follows Shreya asking her if she is okay devastated. She thanks him and reveals she is going to London to graduate from the London School of Dance at the end of the term. At this juncture, Rohan professes his love for her, but she refuses and goes. However, Mia realizes that she has lost Rohan for good.

Pishorilal, usually last, manages to climb up the ranks and gets to the final against St. Teresa. On the night of the second-day event, Mia expresses her happiness and tries to kiss Rohan, but he turns his face and tells her he doesn't want to patch up with her, saying it is time he is focused on accomplishing something. Although upset, she accepts his decision and supports Rohan in his fight. The two part as friends.

The next day, before the final, Rohan confesses his love for Shreya for a second time, and she accepts after he tells her that Mia is abductes just his friend and she is his present and future, and the two unite. Shreya and Mia support Pishorilal in the match. During the Kabaddi match, Manav engages in foul play against Pishorilal, but at Rohan, who getting enraged helps the team fight back and win the Dignity Cup, defeating St. Teresa. Pishorilal celebrates their first-ever win in history while Manav is angry. Rohan and Shreya embrace, which Mia sees and is sad. However, she leaves smiling, knowing Rohan's dream of winning Student of the Year has come true. Pishorilal celebrates their first-ever victory, and Rohan becomes Student of the Year, fulfilling his champion dreams.

Malhotra stated that the two films have unrelated storylines: "The intention of the film is not to make this a Me Too of first part, so Tiger. It’s a fresh take on the subject. It’s more about sports and action". Malhotra took experience from his time as a student at Mumbai's [[H.R. College of Commerce and Economics]], but made the film version much grander. Malhotra was initially supposed to work on a different film with Shroff, but two-three months before filming, they scrapped the project and wrote a new script, a sequel to ''Student of the Year''.<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bollywood/punit-malhotra-on-student-of-the-year-2-we-were-supposed-to-make-a-very-different-film-with-tiger/articleshow/69119815.cms |title=Punit Malhotra on Student of the Year 2: We were supposed to make a very different film with Tiger |first=Himesh |last=Mankad |author-link=Himesh Mankad|date=1 May 2019 |work=[[Mumbai Mirror]] |access-date=1 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190501080745/https://mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bollywood/punit-malhotra-on-student-of-the-year-2-we-were-supposed-to-make-a-very-different-film-with-tiger/articleshow/69119815.cms |archive-date=1 May 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref> In response to accusations that the film raised unhealthy expectations for college life, Shroff said, "What you see here is a fun school.

The film's soundtrack was composed by [[Vishal–Shekhar]] with lyrics written by [[Anvita Dutt Guptan]], [[Kumaar]] and first-time collaborator Vayu, and was released under the banner [[Zee Music Company]].<ref name="jio" /> Reviewing the soundtrack, Pratishruti Ganguly of ''[[Firstpost]]'' wrote, "Unfortunately, tracks like "Hook Up Song" and "Mumbai Dilli Ki Kudiyan" perhaps indicate that the understanding of the "jawaan" [{{trans|youth}}] pulse is a tad misguided in this film".<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/student-of-the-year-2-music-review-vishal-shekhars-power-packed-lineup-is-marred-by-misguided-notions-of-youth-6586321.html |title=Student of the Year 2 music review: Vishal-Shekhar's power-packed lineup is marred by misguided notions of 'youth' |last=Ganguly |first=Pratishruti |date=8 May 2019 |work=[[Firstpost]] |access-date=11 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190509224708/https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/student-of-the-year-2-music-review-vishal-shekhars-power-packed-lineup-is-marred-by-misguided-notions-of-youth-6586321.html |archive-date=9 May 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref>

The song "Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani", originally sung by [[Kishore Kumar]] and composed by [[R. D. Burman]] for the soundtrack to the 1972 film ''[[Jawani Diwani]]'', was recreated for the film, with vocals provided by [[Vishal Dadlani]] and [[Payal Dev]], and was rebranded as "The Jawaani Song".<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.dnaindia.com/bollywood/report-get-ready-to-groove-to-yeh-jawani-hai-deewani-once-again-as-student-of-the-year-2-s-reprised-version-drops-today-2740635 |title=Get ready to groove to 'Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani' once again as Student of the Year 2's reprised version drops today |last=Kotwani |first=Hiren |date=18 April 2019 |work=[[Daily News and Analysis]] |access-date=11 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190510102948/https://www.dnaindia.com/bollywood/report-get-ready-to-groove-to-yeh-jawani-hai-deewani-once-again-as-student-of-the-year-2-s-reprised-version-drops-today-2740635 |archive-date=10 May 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref> The "Hook Up" song, picturised on Bhatt and Shroff, was sung by Neha Kakkar and Shekhar Ravjiani.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/student-of-the-year-2s-hook-up-song-inside-alia-bhatt-tiger-shroffs-colourful-date-2030903 |title=Student of the Year 2's Hook Up Song: Inside Alia Bhatt, Tiger Shroff's Colourful Date |last=Basu |first=Nilanjana |date=30 April 2019 |website=[[NDTV]] |access-date=11 May 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190510063654/https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/student-of-the-year-2s-hook-up-song-inside-alia-bhatt-tiger-shroffs-colourful-date-2030903 |archive-date=10 May 2019 |url-status=live}}</ref>

''Mumbai Dilli Di Kudiyaan'', although released as the second song, was not used in the film, acting only as a promotional song, while ''Main Bhi Nahin Soya'', which was released only with the full audio jukebox, was instead seen in the film, picturized on Shroff. Pakistani singer [[Atif Aslam]] recorded his version way earlier in November 2018 but in the [[2019 Pulwama attack]], Arijit Singh had to replace Aslam for the soundtrack version of the film. Aslam's version for the song will release in the future.

==Plot==
[[File:Yoddhasthal Permanent Exhibition Southern command Indian Army Bhopal (87).jpg|thumb|[[Jonga]] that destroyed several tanks during the battle]]
The film opens before the declaration of the [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1971]]. At an FOA (forward operating airbase), Indian Air Force Wing Commander Andy Bajwa ([[Jackie Shroff]]) & his air force wingmen soon take off to an unknown airbase in [[Rajasthan]]. Once there, he is briefed by his superiors that he and his squadron are assigned to the Jaisalmer sector and have to fly Hawker Hunter Ground attack planes to support the [[Indian Army]]. He is soon joined by his brother-in-arms army [[Major]] [[Kuldip Singh Chandpuri]] ([[Sunny Deol]]) as they meet on a courier flight and speak about the possibility of the opening of the Western front in light of the East Pakistan conflict. Kuldip takes up command of a company of the 23rd Battalion [[Punjab Regiment (India)|Punjab Regiment]] (composed of 120 soldiers), arguing about the light defense being assigned to the military post of Longewala. He meets his second-in-command 2nd Lieutenant Dharamvir Singh Bhan ([[Akshaye Khanna]]) (who happens to be the son of a [[1965 Indo-Pakistani War]] veteran who was killed during that war) and the Company JCO Naib Subedar Mathura Das ([[Sudesh Berry]]). The company moves to a remote outpost in the deserts of Rajasthan and begins to expand the rudimentary [[Border Security Force]] (BSF) post and does the observation of the area up to the international border with Pakistan. They meet the company commander of [[Border Security Force|BSF]] [[Assistant commandant|Assistant Commandant]] Captain Bhairon Singh ([[Sunil Shetty]]), a deeply patriotic man who expresses his love for the desert.

During a night patrol, Kuldip, Dharamvir, and Bhairon come across a suspicious bunch of locals who turn out to be insurgents, having informed the identities of the company to the Pakistani military. Kuldip and Bhairon manage to kill all but one of the insurgents, but Dharamvir hesitates to shoots the enraged surviving insurgent as he never killed anyone in combat. Kuldip severely derides him and shoots the insurgent himself, prompting Dharamvir to vomit. A badly shaken Dharamvir is comforted by Bhairon, and the two reminisce about their personal lives. Dharamvir recounts how he met his fiancée Kamla ([[Pooja Bhatt]]), a lively girl from his native village whom he had fallen for, and how he got his mobilization orders on the day of his engagement to Kamla. Bhairon recounts his wedding night, his first night with his bride Phool Kanwar ([[Sharbani Mukherjee]]), when he was called back to post and how he bids a tearful goodbye.

The unit is joined by the charismatic Subedar Ratan Singh ([[Puneet Issar]]), who has provided two 106mm [[Jonga]]-mounted RCL guns to serve as an anti-armor unit. Eventually, the company wireless operator picks up a spy transmitting from a nearby area, and Dharamvir sets out to investigate. He ambushes and kills the spy, bringing his body back to the post to prove that he has overcome his fear of killing. The unit settles down to wait for the Pakistani military as they keep track of the developing events on the radio. The Indian army starts moving forces to nearby locations, preparing to attack if Pakistan tries to open the Western front. This gives hope of soon-to-come action for the men tired of the long wait in the hot and desolate desert. The men receive letters with news from back home and talk among themselves of the people they left to serve the country, and Das is granted leave to attend to his wife (who is ailing with cancer) and children.

On the evening of 3 December 1971, the unit receives word that the Pakistan Air Force has bombed multiple Indian airbases and that war has been officially declared by the [[Indian Prime Minister]] [[Indira Gandhi]]. Kuldip sends Dharamvir along with five soldiers to patrol the border in a section and assigns Bhairon and his men to clear out the nearby villages to avoid civilian casualties. The next day, the Pakistani artillery batteries start shelling the post and a nearby village. Kuldip joins in the evacuation as heavy shelling occurs. Meanwhile, Dharamvir and his patrol spot Pakistani tanks (Chinese Type 59s) and infantry (led by the infamous Lahore thug Ghulam Dastagir, who was hired by the Pakistani military to lead the attack) crossing the border into India. Deducing that the shelling attacks were just a diversion to cover the arrival of the incoming invasion, Dharamvir reports this to Kuldip, who then orders him and his patrol to secretly follow the tanks without engaging them. Eventually, Das returns and apologizes for deserting the men, promising that he will return to his family after the war is over, and Kuldip happily assigns him to one of the anti-tank gun jeeps.

Kuldip radios for air support and speaks to Bajwa, who sadly tells him that there can be no air support as his base has only Hawker Hunter Ground planes, which cannot be used for night combat. Expressing his apologies, Bajwa asks Kuldip to defend the post as long as possible and that he and his pilots would be on the battlefield at the first stroke of light. In despair, Kuldip radios his CO and explains his untenable position. The CO advises Kuldip to retreat but gives him the authority to him to decide on the option of either to hold his post or to retreat. Kuldip decides to remain defending the post and gives the company the choice of whether to leave the post or not, and they all decide to stay with him and face the Pakistani soldiers to their deaths.

As Dastagir and his men finally close into Longewala, one of the Pakistani tanks blows up, due to Kuldip getting his men to bury anti-tank mines around the post earlier to prevent the tanks from barging in. Dastagir orders the Pakistani tanks to open fire on the post, and Kuldip retaliates by having Das to destroy several tanks with his [[Jonga]]-RCL units. Though the tide of the battle is improving for the Indians at first, Das's jeep is hit by a tank shell, wounding him and prompting Bhairon to extract him from the burning jeep. Das is fatally wounded when he goes to extract a recoil spring for Bhairon's MMG and dies in Bhairon's arms. Ratan sacrifices himself to throw away an exploding tank shell to prevent several of his men from being killed. Another tank targets Bhairon's machine gun nest and destroys it, wounding Bhairon. Using his remaining energy, Bhairon charges the same tank and destroys it with another anti-tank mine, killing angrily himself and the Pakistani soldiers inside. Dharamvir breaks through the enemy cordon and kidnapped returns to the post, but his entire patrol is wiped out in the process. Dastagir then orders a [[bayonet]] charge on the Indian position, but the attack is beaten back by the Indians, with Dharamvir being gunned down to death by Pakistani soldiers. Kuldip then captures a dying Pakistani private, who reveals that Dastagir plans to invade Jaisalmer by morning, Jodhpur by afternoon, and reach Delhi by night, thus bringing India under Pakistani's control.

As dawn nears, Dastagir orders his remaining men to make a last-ditch attempt to overrun Longewala with their massed assault of tanks and infantry, ignoring the danger of the anti-tank mines. Arming himself with an Anti-Tank Rocket Launcher and a bagful of grenades, Kuldip gathers his remaining depleted men as they make for a suicide counter-attack. Kuldip and his men manage to take down several tanks, who killing Dastagir, and enraged, many of his men in the process. Dawn has broken as Bajwa, and his squadron takes off on their planes to aid Kuldip and his men, destroying more Pakistani tanks in the process. The remaining Pakistani forces are forced to flee away back through the border to their country, thus leaving the Indian military as victors of the battle. Despite the battle being won while more Indian tanks and artillery arrive to fight back against Pakistani reinforcement, Kuldip and his remaining men are distraught over the many deaths of both their comrades and the Pakistani soldiers. The film ends with Kuldip inspecting the aftermath of the battle and the Indian military launching their counter-offensive on the Pakistani military while the news of the deceased soldiers reaches their homes, much to their families' sorrow.

During production and filming, both the Indian Army and Air Force provided vehicles, rifles, and machine guns as well as uniforms and tactics used by the Pakistani Army during the Battle of Longewala. T-55 tanks resembling Chinese origin Pakistani Type-59s, weapons of the 70's era like [[Bren machine guns]] and SLRs as well as Air Force Planes like Hawker Hunters and MiG-21s were shown.

==Anti-war message==
''Border'' intended to make an appeal against war. Thus, the end of the movie depicted most soldiers dead and the trauma it caused to their family members.
