excerpts :
Defining
patriotism in contemporary times is a much more complex issue and none
managed to capture the aspirations and hopes of the youth and their
disconnect with their country, as perfectly as Rakeysh Om Prakash Mehra
did with his film 'Rang De Basanti'. Ashutosh Gowariker too made a
brilliant attempt in his film 'Swades'. However, Gowariker collaborated
more successfully with Aamir Khan in his earlier film 'Lagaan', while
Shimit Amin raised the Indian tricolour with his sports flick 'Chak De!
India'. In between, there were films like Anil Sharma's 'Gaddar' and
Shyam Benegal's film on Subhash Chandra Bose. There was a sudden
revival of interest in Bhagat Singh and there were some four odd films
made on the revolutionary hero. But the one which really lingers in
memory is Rajkumar Santoshi's 'The Legend of Bhagat Singh'. Ketan Mehta
too jumped into the fray with his 'Mangal Pandey', based on the Sepoy
Mutiny of 1857. But the final word was probably had by a Britisher, Sir
Richard Attenborough. His biopic on Mahatma Gandhi broke all barriers
of nationality and the film best depicted the fight of Indian
Independence through the life of that extraordinary human being called,
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
Tomorrow, the Prime Minister of
India will raise the Indian flag at the Red Fort in New Delhi and the
nation will perhaps relive the bitter and long struggle of its birth.
Fresh challenges await the country and love for the nation has acquired
an altogether different hue these days. But when the time comes, one
hopes that the people of this country will rise in unison and protect
its boundaries. Jai Hind!
