Only predictable thing about life is that it is an unpredictable thing.There actually is no man born who can predict anything about anyone's life. Just imagine if the Lama can predict future, all the mountaineers would have reached the top safely and returned home safely either.

That's right dear... No one can really predict someone's future...

I have seen a documentary... There people do trust on these things... But at end of the day it is their hardwork and dedication which makes them winner... Hope they all will succeed

About his previous deeds... I share a slightly different opinion... I know that what he did was not right and I don't justify his act but at the same time I can't blame him for his friends death.. Even if he would have stayed there... Nothing much could have been done at that time .. Because his oxygen was about to get over and in 10 min they couldn't go back to camp...
What happened was sad but can't really blame arjun for that...

I agree with what you said about Arjun. You really can't help someone on a high up freezing mountain with 10 minutes of oxygen left. In Indian shows I have seen they always try to manipulate the viewers like this.

For eg, we all saw the Gaurav accident too. Aakash tried his best to save him but the body has its limits. And yet Seema maasi is so evil to him. Agreed it's probably not easy for them to see him as he reminds them of Gaurav but you can't blame him.

In our local paper there was this news coverage when some Sanawar students completed an Everest expedition. And they mentioned that they saw a destitute man on the mountain who had run out of food. Hell, he was starving and not because of lack of oxygen yet and they said they had to leave him there because it is such a difficult climb. Everyone has limited food and oxygen stores and I guess it's every man/woman for himself up there.

Gosh... That's really sad... But at those places you can't do much for others... And arjun also did the same... Though don't support his cold act... But can't blame for his death too... It was bound to happen but it's just that due to his bad past.. He didn't even try... Because after everything happened to him, his success matters to him most... But Somewhere he know that what he did was quite wrong.. And thus he gets nightmare...

Hope that life will give him a second chance to improve his mistakes and to forget his past

Rungta is not going to climb to the summit!
He will either stay in the base camp or he might accompany the team till the next camp.

In every major Himalayan expedition there are several camps on the way up to the summit.

The 1st is the major one, the base camp, from there they start climbing and at some locations during the climb there are temporary camps set up along the way, where tents are set up and supplies are kept.

I think the sherpas stay back at the final camp just before the summit.

Rungta cannot go as hes not a mountaineer, he didnt get any training either, he just went along with the team till base camp as he wants to protect his investment and make sure the expedition starts as scheduled.

Hes being greedy of course and putting the team member's lives in danger by hacking the weather system and changing weather reports.

His punishment would be that Arjun would fail to get the sarpech because of bad weather or an avalanche...and others would find out the reason for his mission.

I dont think any of the 3 Aces would die during the expedition. Dont know abt the Colonel or Chand though...hope they also return alive.

@pallavi

I am wondering now if Roongta knows where the sarpech is hidden on the mountain. Do they have to dig or just go and pick it up?

Everest must surely have an icy tip. I don't know now. How do people manage to stand on an icy tip or maybe it's not icy at all.

People have to use all their energy to just climb Everest. How is Arjun going to go there and start to dig also.

The others won't stop him when they realise what he's after?

So many questions lol.

Colonel had once said that a expedition is only successful when all come back alive.If all donoy make it back it is not successful...So lets see if all come back or not.

@ Severus: That's right. All the Indian shows have peculiar habit of changing facts to suit the story. For example: colonel is going to send a rescue team. Its like few are dying there so I will kill a few here. It can be a morally right decision but not really a wise thing to do.

When a mountaineer chooses to climb such a deadly place like Everest he automatically takes the responsibility of his own death. No one should be blamed here. As I said earlier Arjun's incident was shown from ethical point of view.

@severus: Thats the question, where exactly is the sarpech hidden and how will Arjun find it? 😕

Roongta seems to knows the exact location where its buried, maybe there is some sort of marker or flag next to it?

Or maybe its hidden in an ice cave somewhere near the summit?

Did Roongta ever mention the marker or location to Arjun?

The tip of Everest looks pointed from afar but Ive seen pics of mountaineers standing right next to it while raising their expedition flag. There is a spur next to the tip, thats where the successful climbers plant their flag.

Colonel is an honorable armyman, in the Army the motto is "No Man left Behind"

Thats why he will never leave a team mate behind and will risk his own life to save his team members.

But other non Army expeditions, Im not so sure abt them, maybe their motto is "Each man to his own"

This sounds terrible because up there if your team members dont help you then who will?
