Re: WILCO
Updates on this episode;
Humayun Saeed's (Maj Saarim) brother (Imran Abbas) is an angry guy who has a thing against the Army; turns out their dad, also an Army officer, was martyred on the day he was graduating. The story hasn't been revealed yet as to how.
Maj Saarim is back in his unit and in operational areas where they are busy with relief works in flooded terrain. Adnan Siddiqi, Humayun's friend, also a Major, a sapper from the Engineering Corps is beyond some point acrrying rescue with troops and the signals & logistics have been cut. Problem is that the area is very close to the enemy; eastern thats is. Maj Saarim's coy is deployed and they move fwd to establish contact with the troops, but on reaching the point he orders his officers and men to return and himself drops into the river and starts swimming up the eastern bank. Suddenly there's a cry for an MG bunker manned by a sardar ji, humayun gets alerted and then follows a burst of MG fire...rest is for your imagination...
Meanwhile the village scene is a bit stretched and for me boring as there's no uniform there so far...the girl who's pregnant got bit by a scorpion.
Raju uncle, I again missed the part on your intro; I'm not sure about your and Leyla aunty's role, I do know you are her father but can you refresh about your connection with Saarim and family? Thanks!
The title song by Rahat Fateh is starting to make a mark, very interesting and patriotic as well as very relevantly composed for a military production.
