This movie about Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, a revered name in Indian politics, is a very well researched one, backed with excellent direction, screen play and performances. It gives a bold and amazingly critical view on the life of Sardar Patel, his unmatched contributions to India’s freedom and solidarity and also the undergoing politics of pre-independent India. Even though biographical the film is extremely gripping and well paced. Sardar, the first home minister of  our independent country, initiated the integration of 500 princely states for a better governance. His uncompromising efforts towards consolidation of the country earned him the title ‘Iron Man of India’.

2. Gandhi (1982)

Best Movies Based on Indian Independence day

Gandhi is a sincere biopic about one of the most admirable heroes of Indian freedom struggle.  Enriched with Ben Kingsley’s exceptional performance, this movie is didactic as well as compelling. Mahatma Gandhi as we all know was a prominent Indian political leader and freedom fighter, who employed non-violent principles and peaceful disobedience. The message of sheer nonviolent ways that can be adapted and implied to fight out all the odds is the true essence of the movie. The movie is an honest portrayal of the man,  the “Father of  Nation”, who achieved the goal of Independent India with his own philosophy and ideology.

Be the Change you want to see in the world – Mahatma Gandhi

1. Rang De Basanti

Best Movies Based on Indian Independence day

The exemplary and thought-provoking movie celebrates the true spirit of nationalism. The amalgamation of the past and present issues, which wrecked India and still haunts the nation after independence is wonderfully narrated in the film. The best thing about the movie undoubtedly is the comparison and shift from past to present and present to past. The film provokes the thought that old values can still be subjected in modern days. With an excellent background score by A.R.Rahman and a very realistic cinematography the movie is a must watch. It relates the struggle of the youth of modern India and the days of Bhagat Singh and his mates. The movie celebrates youth and its capability to battle against the powermongers.
