Although, as a woman (and here the film shows a more conventional side) her role can only be to witness, from the sidelines, the central spectacle of male martyrdom, she is nevertheless (for Hindi cinema) a notably unconventional witness.ДЄs the film begins, SueвЂ™s dream of retelling the story of the anti-Raj revolutionaries is abruptly shattered when her BBC вЂњWorld VisionвЂќ producers pull the budgetary plug on the project. PattenвЂ™s sensitive and endearing performance. That her gaze is discerning and not stereotyped, appreciative but not fawning, doubtless owes much to the scriptwriter and director, but also to Ms. The two parallel narratives, one familiar and closed, the other emergent and unpredictable, come together through the eyes and lens of a fictional director making a film-within-a-film.ДЄn outsider-insider, she reverses the recent trend toward expatriate NRI heroes and heroines (who view the West through privileged Indian eyes) to invite Indian viewers to see themselves through foreign ones.

The story of the 1931 martyrdom of the young revolutionary and freedom fighter Bhagat Singh and his companions Rajguru, Sukhdev, and Chandrashekhar Azad-one of the hallowed legends of modern Indian history and itself the subject of a spate of recent films (see, e.g., THE LEGEND OF BHAGAT SINGH, 2002)-is again retold here, this time interwoven with a contemporary fable about radicalization and sacrifice. Its fast-paced and visually arresting presentation belies a multi-layered storyline that assumes considerable background knowledge of twentieth-century Indian history. In the best tradition of Bombay film, it is both innovative and conservative: a forward- and backward-looking meditation on two of the preoccupations of Hindi cinema: nationalism and filmmaking. This complex and unsettling tale about the political awakening of a group of jaded urban youths became one of the most acclaimed and talked-about films of 2006 in India, as well as IndiaвЂ™s entry in the US Academy Awards.
