The essence of the story: there is a success in every failure
‘Hakat’ is not a movie. This is a template for every war in Bollywood after 1964. The limit is true. Lock Cargil True. Even the latest Tamil biopic answer is true. For example, the beginning of an era of what happened before and after that. The truth in the history of Indian cinema is a decisive moment.
A simple stylistics are followed in all the war films of India. They introduce the characters in the film, most of them are young boys, because the war is mainly a tragedy, where you need to bury your young people. The story of the film is made up of these boys. In this, their dreams and expectations are added to it. Songs related to brotherhood are placed in love, separation and military camps. Then it has war with a ruthless, inhumane and cruel enemy. As the director of reality, Chetan Anand Satyajit Ray told Ray, a life of a war, love, hate and death.
Chetan Anand made this mosaic with philosophical beauty. Along with this, he created poetry amidst destruction, adding moments that touch the heart of the heroic Saga. Its songs made the pain and sacrifice to a height and made them stand up. Then it showed the battle without any filter for two hours. This war is intensity. It contained black and white Ladak deserts, tall mountains and deep lakes. If there is no tragedy, you will have the power to love you for reality.
Film script
The failed war cannot live again. It’s like your personal grief. Its embarrassment brings your mind to your mind. Its pain hurts you like a snake. Therefore, it was courageous to make a film about India’s defeat in the Indo-China War of 1962. And when people’s injuries were green. It was like spraying salt on those wounds. But Seethan Anand took some soldiers and showed the army’s bravery and warrior in defeat, death and retreat. The story of the film is somewhat based on the war in Regang Lav. The truth of a few Indian players in front of China players in Ladakh.
13 Kumavon players carried out the war of Rejang La. His president is Major Shaitan Singh Grandmother. On November 18, 1962, even our brave soldiers waged a war with China in a gathering. Even at dawn in this war, the Chinese soldiers attacked. In such a situation, 120 to 140 Indian soldiers finally fought for about 5 hours. In this fight, Major Shaitan Singh had several bullets, but he refused to retreat. He was given Param Vir Chakra for his courage. His heroic Saga is still reciting in the villages of Rajasthan.
In fact, Dharmendra’s character Captain Bahadur Singh begins a heroic -Ful fight, which gives an Indian battalion a chance to leave a camp. There is a risk of attacking on this battalion. In this battle of Captain Bahadur Singh, he gives a soldier and a local woman (Priya dynasty) that he wants to marry.
But reality is also a political film. In this, India’s abomination is shown in the sudden brutal war from China. In one scene, the nature of Balraj Sahni criticizes China for betraying China. He says, ‘We supported him internationally. We took care of the five principles of peace. We welcomed him by setting up a red carpet for his leaders (China’s head Jav Enlai), and he even asked him to paint our soldiers in color. They shoot in the chest of the same soldiers. In this scene of Balraj Sahni in the film, pictures of real life were shown.
Kaifi Azmi’s poems
The history of Indian history won two excellent songs with the uncomfortable defeat of India in the 1962 war. Lata Mangeshkar’s song ‘Iy Mere Mare Wadan K Peppele’ has been written about the voice of the voice. A heart that touches the hearts of the listeners. One day we will recite the tradition of writer Pradeep and composer C. Ramachandra. Currently, Kaifi Azmi should be celebrated in two of the best patriotic songs of cinema. She gave two songs in Cedan Anand’s films.
The reality ends with ‘Car Sale Hum Fita’ by Kaifi Azmi. In this song by the martyrs, ‘Mera Rang de Basanthi Chola’ is played by the song ‘Mera Rang de Basanthi Chola’, sung by Bhagat Singh in Shaheed (1965). Each line is soaked in an abandoned blood, rich in heroic juice, revealing patriotism. Look at this Antara:
Breath stopped, pulse pulled
Still not stopped as it grows
Cut the head, our head is not miserable
We will not let the Himalayas bomb
Bankani colleagues kept dying while dying
Now you have handed your homeland colleagues
Before the final credit of reality, India was written behind the soldiers. In the voice of Kaifi Azmi, Mohammed Rafi’s voice, with these emotional scenes, this song fills you with a feeling that you have never abandoned. The song is a tribute to the brave Indians, the symphony of flexibility, and the bold call to hug the martyrdom.
