Starring Ajay Devgan and Sushant Singh in lead roles, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, the movie was (obviously) based on Indian freedom fighter martyr Bhagat Singh. Bhagat Singh's younger brother was involved in the making of the movie - which adds another good in the storytelling.
The movie starts off by showing how the three young men - Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru are hanged, their bodies chopped and immolated with oil and then partly thrown off into the nearby waters, only to be found in a gruesome state by their family. Then the movie pans to Bhagat Singh's childhood and how his desire for an independent India came about; his quest and thirst for knowledge and then his actions and passion to a socialist India. On the way, webs of friendship and brotherhood are well weaved into the story. No battle or revolution is complete without treachery and this movie too has its share with some hot, moving scenes.
I don't know if it is the effect of A.R.Rahman's songs or the theme of the story, but I thought it was a great job done for this movie. There are some very patriotic dialogues and scenes that were very moving. Even the lines of the songs are of no less consequence. A line that stays in the mind is from the song mera rang de - markae kaise jeethe hain, is duniyaa ko bathlaanae - a simple twist of words but powerful meaning for martyrdom and sacrifice for motherland.
For those patriotic Indians out there, this is probably a feast, especially the songs and dialogue. Ajay Devgan has done a good job in carrying out the role. The other supporting cast have also carried out their roles with ease. Outstanding acting was done by individuals playing the characters of martyrs Sukhdev, Rajguru, Chandrashekhar Azad and Jatin Das. An overall excellently done movie. Worth the watch and time.
