New Delhi: During Operation Sindoor, the United States which had received intelligence suggesting that India had launched BrahMos cruise missiles to strike targets inside...
If I am not mistaken the image you are showing on the page to be as Jhalkari’s (one that you placed along with Ankita Lokhande’s image) is given as the image of Rani of Jhansi(Manikarnika) in our school textbooks!!
Kindly let us know the entire role of Jalkari Bai in the first war of independence (I am a nationalist), especially her role as an advisor.
Stop beating around the bush.
Point taken..But its a bollywood commercial movie and still one finds that she gets enough screen time. NOne the less this is well written piece and will surely create much needed awareness of all the forgotten heroes of freedom struggle.
Desh ke liye marne me bhi reservation hona chahiye 16 per. S.c. 12 per. S.t. 28 per. O .b.c. baki 51 per. Marne ki khilli pratiyogita. Yadi kbhi kisi yudh me s.c. ,s.t. ya obc ke reservation ke anusar sainik nahi mare to kya unhe mar de????
Indian history , it seems, is nothing but the hypocrisy……the historians tried to magnify all those in d name of patriotism whereas actually the real story is altogether different! The real reason fr the 1957 war was…Will Dalrymple in his book The Ladt Mughal has given d real reason for that. We need such historians to know the reality!
Why do you think that Jhalkaridevi was Dalit? Nobody gave birth to word Dalit at that time in 19th century. She was untouchable and belongs to Shudra Varn.
If it is true then all Shudras i. e today’s OBCs, and SCs and STs should feel proud and grateful of her.
And requested to avoid the use of word Dalit any more.
Upper caste has always been popular for keeping dalit warriors and icons in dorment state and that’s true to its authenticity. Since it is not just this movie where the facts have been kept out of the rich of common masses but it has been a regular practice of castiest minds .
Serial instigator once again sees a film from caste angle and nothing else. He has still not apologised for the hate instigatory article against the so-called privileges of Brahmins published earlier. He is free to produce a film showing whatever he wants to show. What is stopping him?
I feel they have depicted Jhalkari in a dramatized way to suit the entertainment quotient and length of the movie else one can make a very effective TV series / documentary detailing every warrior involved in the 1857 revolt. I feel our generation has to understand history in the right context and appreciate the sacrifices of all great warriors. This movie may not be perfect for all but is an earnest effort in that direction.

This opinion piece is no better than the movie itself. Beating around the bush without any relevant information.

Is the pic of Jhalkaribai or Rani Laxmibai ? I think Laxmibai …
