A Story That Shows the Struggle Between Hope and Disillusionment
I love historical dramas, but what really impressed me about this one is how it focuses on the lead-up to the Jallianwala Bagh massacre instead of just showing the event itself. It makes you feel the weight of every decision, every miscommunication, and every act of power that led to one of the darkest moments in history.
Kantilal Sahni's role as a member of the Hunter Commission adds a fascinating angle. He isn't a hero or a revolutionary-he's a man stuck inside a system that's only pretending to seek justice. As he starts to uncover the truth, his struggle becomes personal, and that's what makes this show so compelling.
The courtroom scenes are some of the most gripping moments in the series. The performances are strong, and you can feel the frustration as the truth is twisted to serve political interests. The massacre itself is handled with restraint, making it all the more powerful when it happens.
This show is a reminder that history is never as simple as we think. It's always shaped by those in power, and this series does an incredible job of showing how that happened.
