As India celebrated its 74th Independence Day yesterday, a huge number of sacrifices were made to get freedom in 1947 to make the country independent once again. Gippy Grewal’s ‘Subedar Joginder Singh’ is a film that every Indian must watch to know the history as well as the bravery of our real heroes.
The film brings the valour of Subedar Joginder Singh on 70mm, with showing glimpses of him from his private life to his willpower shown at the front lines. On the big screen, the film tries to bring back Subedar Joginder Singh. Undoubtedly, he is one of the unsung heroes of our nation, who fought a fight after independence.
In addition to this, the movie also showed how courageously soldiers sacrificed everything for the country. It showed the last men knew that the Chinese outmanned them, but they didn’t give up. As the movie is about the life of the soldiers, the songs of the film also show their routine life and other things quite realistically.
The song ‘Gal Dil DI’ portrays how overjoyed soldiers feel when they receive letters from their families and loved ones. The song ‘Hathyaar’, in contrast, shows the determination and bravery of the army men. Some songs of the film will touch your heart while some songs will make you feel proud of our soldiers and all the unsung heroes.
The freedom India got in 1947 would have lost if our soldiers would have not stood for the nation. This film can’t be labelled as only a war drama, even though it shows one war scenario, but it also shows how every day a soldier fight numerous other battles. The film not only makes us proud of our soldiers, but also makes us appreciate the value of their bravery, dedication and sacrifice.
