Is the electrifying story of India's struggle for independence. Based on the bestselling book of the same name, it recounts the partition of India and Pakistan, and the religious and socio-political dynamics of the era.
Review: I watched 'Rocket Boys' by SonyLiv and went on their website to see what else they had done and when I saw this series (based on the excellent book of the same name. That book was also the source material for 'Gandhi' starring Ben Kingsley ) I had to get a subscription. It is beautifully shot, extremely well acted and cast and it is thought provoking and also very tough to watch at times as it shows the communal riots and what happens when politicians use the masses for violence to get what they want. I highly recommend it if you like history, movies based on historical facts and period dramas.
I just read that there will be a second series out soon. I cannot recommend this enough.
