The Forgotten Army - Azaadi ke liye

None of us are going to find this in our school history books. It happened the exact way shown here even more. But unfortunately the credit for fight for freedom is limited to couple of people in India. They are the true unsung heroes of the free India we breath in now.

I only judge an art by seeing what was the aim of its makers and did the art achieved that goal. And if the goal was to aware the audience about the INA's effort from singapore. That, indeed is achieved, at least to me. And so, in my opinion, this series is a super success. It not only achieves it's patriotic mission with it's superb title song and steller performances (which made me cry each and every time), but also gives me a very good time. There's honesty in it's humour, necessary passion in patriotism, and purity in love and honour. Nothing felt too fictitious, at the same time, kept everything a little dramatic, to not make it boring. Though some moments may be debatable as to being authentic or not, but the discussion is of no importance to either me or any fine layman. Those discussions are only important to cinephiles, which is a fun thing nonetheless. I have had a very good time watching the whole season, one episode a day. Binging wasn't an option, and thankfully not, otherwise I wouldn't have enough tears for the whole series in one sitting. This series is definitely worth a try to every prime user. It's a good detour from our daily soaps. But remember, do not binge. It's not good for your health. (Are personal disclaimers like this, a no no in a review?) Happy watching!

A story long overdue.. Sacrifices forgotten due to political reasons.. Ones worth remembering.. The true reason why India got Independence (yes, Red Fort trials and the subsequent Naval Mutiny were the reason the British left and the British PM Clement Attlee himself accepted this).. But a mediocre execution on part of the director as usual.. This could have been a muti season series based on all the adventures and battles of the INA spread over 3 years! But a 5 episode series simply fails to capture the entirety of the glory and valour that was the INA.. And I get that a love story isn't unusual given that the soldiers were humans themselves.. But what's with the blue bird nonsense? Is this a fantasy Disney show? And the side story of 90's Burma is absolutely pointless and even demeaning to the main story.. Had high expectations from this but alas, Bollywood.. 2 extra stars only for the sense to do a series on the INA..

Dear KABIR KHAN Sir From #EkThaTiger #BajrangiBhaijaan #Tubelight to #TheForgottenArmy you made so many movies and now a Web series. From an Independent film maker (Documentary Maker) to a Bollywood director. The Journey is unbelievable. But I just wana tell you guys once in your life watch the amazing Web series "THE FORGETTEN ARMY". Just completed the series #TheForgottenArmy which is live on #AmazonPrimeVideo. I know that some people will like it and some people do not each and every people have their own views. But It has been transformed into a series from some unintentional pages of India. Each character has given the best from their side and Kabir Khan handled all those characters well. You are outstanding #KabirKhan 😍 #India need more #movie and #series like this.

Such a beautiful show with all elements included.The music and the theme are at it's best. The fight for independence.Although we can't completely and accurately understand what really happened back then,a series like this one gets us atleast a speck of idea about the sacrifices our Indians have done.It is worth knowing.
