Rang de BasantiMost of us have probably watched this movie and 9 out of 10 people who watched this movie loved it, it was a fresh and younger approach to patriotism.  Through the movie, we see the young protagonists slowly adapting the idealism and national fervour of the forefather they are enacting for a documentary. A tale of friendship, love, nationalist, patriotism, courage, determination and above all, loyalty, this movie has something for everyone.

Mangal Pandey: The RisingWe have all studied the history lessons where Mangal Pandey attacked British officers in what came to be the instigating act of the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857 or the First War of Indian Independence. Aamir Khan does a sensational job in bringing those history lessons to life in his portrayal of the life, struggles and eventual battles of Mangal Pandey. A must watch for history buffs.

LagaanOne of the epic movies of all time, one of the most brilliant movies made in recent times, this Aamir Khan starer combines two things Indians love most – Cricket and our beloved country. Set in the Victorian period of India’s British Raj, the film captures India’s first hints at revolution and uprising through a village challenging the British to a game of cricket to avoid paying outrageous taxes.

Legend of Bhagat SinghBhagat Singh, played by Ajay Devgan decides things need to change, which is why he organizes and leads a revolution against the ruling British. It details out how Singh’s views about the British were shaped and consequently the actions he took regarding the same.

BorderBased on  the Indo-Pakistan was of 1971, the movie was an adaption of events that took place during the Battle of Longewala. Starring some of our most beloved action heroes (Sunny Deol, Suneil Shetty, Jackie Shroff) the movie is an insightful look into the bravery of the Indian Armed Forces and will make you appreciate them a whole lot more!

SwadesA story about an NRI who returns home only to have his perspective and life changed forever, the movie rings with a subtle undertone of patriotism and is also an interesting look at an outsiders encounters with the harsh realities of village life. Definitely one to watch, this movie has acclaimed cult following in South Asia and obviously, across India.

LakshyaA classic coming-of-age tale about a nonchalant boy who joins the Armed Forces on a wild impulse but finds inspiration, courage and commitment in his time there.

AirliftRecently released, based on the real life incidents that took place in Kuwait during the Iraqi invasion, the movie talks about how one businessman who used to identify himself as a Kuwaiti finds his patriotic spirit in the face of disaster and rallies for the entire Indian community in Kuwait, eventually leading them to safety in what is till date the largest airlift evacuation in history.
