Ever thought how it was all around when ears heard only one sound - sound of rebellion. When youth came on the street and walked on undeterred by bullets or batons. When martinets were made to pay for their every harsh move. When a flimsy man with a spinning wheel and a stick stirred the depraved conscience of millions, the picture of the freedom struggle would have always appeared blur in your mind. However, thanks to Bollywood movies, which treasured precious moments of Indian history.
Bollywood always faired well on the ground of patriotism. It has always given its voice to the ideals of the freedom movements. The credit of making movies based on the freedom struggle goes one Stalwarts of Bollywood - Manoj Kumar. His spectacular performance in the movie ’Shaheed’ which was released in the year 1965 depicted many shades of Bhagat Singh.
