- In the books written by historians, Mughal rulers have been presented as heroes and Hindu rulers as villains
NEW DELHI- Thanks to the makers, director and the entire unit of this film who worked day and night to complete this film in less than a month. If I talk about Bollywood, then the number one banner and top maker here, whether it is Karan Johar or Aditya Chopra or anyone else, does not have the courage to take a total risk at the box office and make a film which is not a film but a revolution in Hindi cinema. Before independence, in order to make the country a caste system and Babu, the British government changed the history in such a way that those who sacrificed everything for the country were called terrorists or robbers and the robber Mughals were made heroes. The Mughal period was called the Golden Period in the books taught to students in our schools and these robber Mughals were called Akbar the Great on the lines of heroes, but the Marathas and the Hindu rulers of the South, even the Sikh Gurus who fought the Mughals and the British were presented as villains in the history books. I will salute the film maker Manpreet Singh Dhami from the bottom of my heart for making this film on the education system created by the British government, which has been released in selected theatres this week. Truth be told, this is a film that not only challenges the history syllabus but also the books written by leftist historians who portray Mughal rulers as heroes and Hindu rulers and Sikh Gurus who fought against Mughals as villains. Today, when the Modi government, which is leading the country in bringing about change, is in power for a long time, why have these school books that present wrong history not been changed due to vote bank politics?Go and watch this honest film with your children, which directly challenges the colonial and leftist views forcibly imposed on Indian history.While watching this film, Chanakya’s words came to my mind, “The nation that does not remember its history, does not take long to become history itself” and forced me to think what is the government’s compulsion that the history books are not being changed.Story PlotNitin is a physics teacher, his wife is a housewife and his only daughter studies in a famous expensive school. The turn in the story comes when Nitin sees that the history being taught to his daughter in the school books is completely wrong. The robber Mughal rulers are being shown as heroes. Then Nitin starts a campaign to change this system. Is this campaign of Nitin successful or not???While watching this film, you come to know that the history of India has been very prosperous and glorious, it is so ancient when civilizations like Greece, Rome, Maya or Egypt did not exist. The principles of Upanishad, science, mathematics, astronomy, medicine, music and drama were created in India. In such a situation, there is a question in the film that which India is that which was discovered by Vasco da Gama in 1498?Why don’t the leaders sitting in the then government now expose this conspiratorial history, which seems necessary, and now Manpreet Singh Dhami has done the same work in his film “His Story of Itihaas”.OverallThis is a film that exposes not only the history syllabus but also the leftist education system.All the characters of the film have been brought alive on screen by the actors of the film with their strong acting, Yogendra Tikku’s acting is unmatched, Ankul Vikal, Kisha Arora and Akanksha Pandey all fit in their characters. Direction is in accordance with the screenplay.Cast: Yogendra Tikku, Kisha Arora, Akanksha Pandey, Ankul Vikal Banner: Panchkarma Films, Director: Manpreet Singh Dhami, Censor: UA, Duration: 143 minutes
