Acerca de esta película

Rang De Basanti is a story about the youth of India today. A young, London based film-maker chances upon the diaries of her grandfather, who served in the British police force in India during the freedom struggle. Excited about these memoirs, she makes plans to shoot a film on the Indian revolutionaries mentioned in the diaries. She comes down to Delhi, and casts a group of five friends to play the pivotal roles of these revolutionaries. However, products of modern India, the five youngsters initially refuse to be part of the project, as they don't identity with these characters from the past. Not surprising, considering that they're part of a generation of Indians that believes in consumerism. To them issues like patriotism and giving one's life for one's beliefs is the stuff stuffy text-books are made of. They would rather party than be patriots. In the film both the 1930's British India and the India Today run parallel and intersect with each other at crucial points. As the film reaches its resolution the line between past and present blur’s, as they become one in spirit.

I would have given it 6 stars if possible, lots of fun with education and romance, one of my favorites, the way each character find themselves is very inspiring and emotional

Must watch movie, will entertain you fully with jokes that will split your sides and make you cry silently with the powerful story everyone can relate with. A movie, one of its kind, talks about Indian establishment and the challenges of living in India.

Though the content of the movie might not be appropriate in real life but something could be learned and somethings are just entertainment. Overall one of best movie made till date on social issues especially on youth.
