Rang de basanti

Young idealistic English filmmaker Sue arrives in India to make a film on Indian revolutionaries Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekhar Azad, and their contemporaries and their fight for freedom from the British Raj. A lack of funds compels her to recruit Delhi University students to act in her docudrama. She finds DJ, who graduated five years ago but still wants to be a part of the University because he doesn't think there's enough to look forward to out there in the real world. Karan is the son of Industrialist Rajnath Singhania who shares an uncomfortable relationship with his father but continues to live off him--very grudgingly. Aslam is a middle-class Muslim boy who lives in the by-lanes near Jama Masjid; he's a poet, philosopher, and guide to his friends. Sukhi is the group's baby: innocent, vulnerable, with a weakness for girls. Laxman Pandey is the fundamentalist in the group, the only one who still believes that politics can make the world better. Sonia is the group's sole girl, a vivacious tomboy engaged to Ajay, the dashing pilot. Through her film, Sue wishes to showcase to the world the efforts of these young revolutionaries and the enormity of their contribution to the freedom movement in India. What unfolds is the inspiration behind Sue's passion for bringing their story to the world. The twist in the tale is of course the fact that more than just telling the world, Sue's film makes DJ and his friends stop and stare at themselves for being the actual descendants of these great men and never recognizing and celebrating their courage and spirit.
