Tango Charlie is a 2005 Indian Hindi-language war film written and directed by Mani Shankar, and the cinematography was by T. Surendra Reddy.

The film stars Bobby Deol as the title character, Ajay Devgn, Sanjay Dutt, Sunil Shetty, Tanishaa, Nandana Sen and Sudesh Berry.

The tale revolves around an Indian Border Security Force trooper named Tarun Chauhan (Bobby Deol) in the 101st BSF Battalion arriving in Manipur to tackle the menace of Bodo rebels.

Chauhan returns home to his native state of Haryana and learns that he's going to be engaged to Lachchi Narayan (Tanishaa), a computer engineer.

A few months later Mike Alpha's platoon is transferred to the state of Telangana to counter the Maoists separatists wreaking havoc on the countryside.

While in a military hospital, Havaldar Ali tells Chauhan his own tragic story, in which he was once assigned to save the family of a rich landlord from Naxalites in Bengal.

Despite all effort, the platoon couldn't save the family; the daughter, who began to take a liking for Ali, was soon killed by the terrorists before he could eliminate them all.

The Kargil conflict between India and Pakistan begins and Mike Alpha's platoon and the battalion move to Kashmir where they are assigned to defend a bridge.

Mike Alpha gives Chauhan a strict order- shoot anyone who wants to cross the bridge but doesn't say the password "Rainfall" after three attempts.
