Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose - The Forgotten Hero

Acclaimed film-maker Shyam Benegal's new bio-epic explores the controversial life of Subhas Chandra Bose, the Bengali freedom fighter who renounced Gandhi's non-violence teachings and declared open warfare on the British Empire.

This fascinating account depicts actual historical events of Bose's life. He escapes from imprisonment in British Calcutta travelling to Berlin where he meets Adolf Hitler who is disparaging and lukewarm in his support.

Frustrated, he leaves Germany in a U-boat to South East Asia. Here he links up with the Japanese to begin his own war. Benegal depicts the multi-faceted nature of the inner man and his doubts and drives, while unveiling a historical perspective rarely afforded in the West.
