Mangal Pandey

Mangal Pandey was an Indian freedom fighter who played an important role in India's first freedom struggle in 1857. He was a soldier of the 34th Bengal Infantry of the East India Company. The erstwhile British rule called him a rebel, while common Hindustani respected him as the hero of the freedom struggle. Upon its release, Mangal Pandey received positive reviews. It received a 91% rating from noted critics rated "fresh" at Rotten Tomatoes. [6] India FM film critic Taran Adarsh ​​called the four stars as saying that this is "a real effort to bring a great hero alive on celluloid, the film will only bring pride and prestige to the domestic market and international stage".

Raja Sen of Rediff described the film as "cleavage and cliché". Derek Alley of Variety commented, "This is the classic composition of all the best historical epics, and although the film has hired a recognizable Bollywood trademark, Heller Mehta's approach is more in its rhythm, pacing and avoidance of Asian melodrama" Western is ". Are more integrated into the action, and attention is tightly placed on the Gordon-Pandey relationship." Roger Ebert Dot's film scholar Omar Mozaffar t Ppni that this film is a study of imperialism and sensitivity, that the issue of gun oil for the 1992 Los Angeles riots and the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy. The provocation incident that led to the Rising could have been saved or quickly rectified. However, in terms of the situation, this was a major issue of unrest due to negligent power brokers.

Gordon and Pandey's friendship has been challenged since the introduction of a new rifle: Enfield rifled gun rumors spread among soldiers, who either lather powder and balls to the rifle with paper cartridges, pig fat or beef tones. Are wet. The process of loading the rifle requires the soldier to cut down on the cartridge, and the soldiers believe that this will cause them to consume pork or beef - a disgusting act for Muslim and Hindu soldiers for religious reasons. Gordon investigates this claim, and his superiors ask Pandey and his people to assure them that the cartridges are free of animal contamination. Demonstrating his faith in Gordon, Pandey cuts the cartridge, but the truth is discovered soon afterwards. This seemingly trivial matter becomes a spark that lights up the flames of rebellion among the soldiers. The rebellion breaks out under Pandey's leadership, and the situation escalates, exacerbated by the despair of years of colonialism and subjugation. At one point, Pandey and Gordon engage in hand-to-hand combat, as the latter try to distract their friend from what they believe to be an untrue exercise, which will only lead to certain death.
