Story
Struggling British filmmaker Sue McKinley comes to India after reading the diary of her grandfather, Mr. McKinley, who served in the British Army during the Indian independence movement. She plans to make a short film about some of the unsung revolutionary heroes of this independence movement, based on the written account of her grandfather. Her friend, Sonia, helps her find four young men to act in the film: Daljit "DJ", Karan, Aslam and Sukhi.
They are not enthusiastic at the idea of acting in a film about the independence movement, but Sue wins them over. Laxman Pandey, a political party activist, later joins the group, although he is initially unpopular due to his ancient beliefs and contempt for Aslam, a rational Muslim. In the process of filming, the idealism of India’s revolutionary heroes seeps into the protagonists. They gradually begin to realize that their own lives are not very different from the actors they portray on the screen and that the same state of affairs that once plagued the revolutionaries continues to torment the present generation.While filming, Ajay, Sonia's fiancé and a Flight Lieutenant in the Indian Air Force, is killed when his plane crashes. The government proclaims that the crash was caused by pilot error and closes the investigation. Knowing that Ajay was an ace pilot, Sonia and her friends do not accept the official explanation. Instead, they claim that he sacrificed his life to save hundreds of other lives which would have been lost had he ejected from the aircraft and left the plane to crash into an overcrowded area. They investigate and learn that the crash was due to a corrupt defence minister, who had signed a contract exchanging cheap and illegal MiG 21 aircraft spare parts for a personal favor. To their surprise, they also learn that the key person who was responsible for effecting this deal was Karan's father, Rajnath Singhania.
Discontent with the situation, the group and their supporters decide to protest peacefully at India Gate, a war memorial in New Delhi, India. Police forcefully breaks up their protest and in the process, Ajay's mother is severely hurt. These young men decide that they must emulate the early freedom fighters and resort to violence to achieve justice.

Ritesh's Reviews
This is the most EXPLOSIVE Indian movie I've watched. I've learned more about the Bhagat Singh legend in this movie instead from the original Bhagat Singh movies. Aamir Khan is as talented as ever, and I really apreciated Alice Patten's quote "TUMHARI MAA KI ANKH". Lol.
A MUST-SEE!!!
