Film Maker Rakeysh Oomphachash Mehra, the Helmed Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Rang de Basanti, Delhi 6, and recently, Tofan, has inspired some young thoughts to think of a cinema as a media that can speak to his audience and deliver more than just a story.
Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, biopics in Milkha Singh and Rang de Basanti, made in 2006, talking about youth and the need to wake him up and be responsible for his country, calculated among the most respected patriotic films in history recently.
When asked where the film in the last 75 years of independence had inspired him, Rakeysh said, “For me, it is Haqeeqat Chetan Anand.
Usually, we make a patriotic film that ends with a victory over the enemy.
Haqeeqat is a big war film, among the biggest Ever made patriotism and martyrdom in losses in war.
Even if we lose war, there will be a hero – that’s what patriotism and that’s what Haqeeqat taught me.
Patriotism and heroes are far greater.
From rhetoric, propagandic chhati thhonk to Bolna.
Heroes without Signs, challenging all opportunities, sacrificing their lives for the country.
Haqeeqat is the underlining film.
This is an extraordinary and beautiful cast film.
Balraj holds them very well.
This film music speaks a lot about the Pathos of the soldiers.
Kar Chale Hum Jaan-O-Tan Taniyon …
”
Further filmmakers describe, “While making Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, I spent a lot of time with JAWAS since I was researching.
I live in Rajasthan Cantonment rifles in Delhi.
I know about it but I really realize that it’s not a rose bed for These soldiers.
This is a sporne bed for them and that’s what we need to know in our patriot and that is why Haqeeqat works as a patriotic film.
Main Yeh Socah to Uske Dar Se Wo Wo Wo Wo Shayad Rokegi Mujhe …
Sudhir’s Character in Film This is that of a soldier who was rather reluctant to leave his home for the country’s assignment because he found it difficult to leave the person he loved behind, and though and despite it, he left them and offered him to live in the country.
Simple character like that taught me that The army is also a son, husband, and brethren.
There is no unnecessary breeding and yet, We pay respect for our army heroes.
It became very important to me and it was well woven.
into the story.
”
Apart from Haqeeqat, Rakeysh also found Manoj Kumar Shaheed and Above Aamir Khan inspired.
He said, “Other films I like is Shaheed, starred in Manoj Kumar who told us about how children in their 20s can display the highest level of patriotism.
The average age of Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru around 23- 24.
When they walk to the gallows.
Shaheed stands out for his purity.
Lagaan might sound like an unusual choice here but it is a patriotic film for me who talks about how people empowers themselves.
It shows patriotism, integrity and do that when Use sports in a very rural way and in a unique way.
It’s not like someone leaves and returns with a medal.
It’s refreshing with self-confidence.
