Still, I recommend that you see Sardar Udham for the extent of its ambition. And for the way in which the film, without resorting to chest-thumping or jingoism, establishes what patriotism looks like. At one point, Bhagat Singh in jail, writes ideology acchi aur sahi honi chahiye nahi toh uske bina joh azadi milegi woh ghulami se bhi darawani hogi. Thats a message we could use today.

On the whole, Sardar Udham is a wonderfully made film but its pace in the first half and too many English dialogues will restrict its appeal to the class audience. Since it has released only on an OTT platform, it will find praise from people who love historicals. But the general masses will not have the patience for such a lengthy and slow film.

Sardar Udhams courage never roared. It whispered. This freedom fighter traversed continents, used aliases and lied low throughout his life. He was too possessed by his singular quest for equality to make a noise. If you are as passionately curious about his quiet existence, this film is for you.

The scale of the meticulously structured period narrative is grand but Sardar Udham, helmed by Shoojit Sircar, shuns the trappings of a Bollywood biopic. But that certainly isn’t the film’s sole strength. The brilliantly lensed biopic also draws power from lead actor Vicky Kaushal’s intense and intuitive performance Sardar Udham presents a revolutionary hero of India’s struggle for freedom as a real, relatable, laddoo-loving young man who just happened to be somebody who saw death from such close quarters, and in such horrific circumstances, that his resolve to avenge the martyrs of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre turned into a self-assigned mission.

The biopic of Sardar Udham Singh can be deemed as the opposite of Mahatma Gandhis. In the sense that Udham Singh, in history, is chiefly associated with an act of violence €” the revenge-assassination of former British lieutenant governor of Punjab (Michael ODwyer), who was responsible for the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in Amritsar (1919). Gandhi vehemently stood for everything opposed to that. Both being freedom fighters, of course.

Shoojit Sircars film is a long, unhurried re-creation of a turbulent slice of Indias colonial past, going back and forth from Punjab to London, with a few detours here and there. I did find the first hour a bit of a slog, where we see, in a series of flashbacks within a flashback, Udhams difficult arrival in London and casting about for support, his arrest and painful interrogation. It is when it arrives at Jallianwala Bagh and the brutal mowing down of those innocents that the film, ironically, comes to life

All said and done, Shoojit Sircar makes a poignant point by plotting a heroic tale without making it just about the hero, focusing on his ideology of destroying imperialism to attain freedom using his ways. It not just informs you about a tragedy but also gives you a closure that is neither Black nor White.

While there has been a host of movies on Bhagat Singh, I do not remember any on Udham, and so Sircars work scores here. But where it does not is the way he has stretched his narrative to 147 minutes, and there are so many needlessly prolonged scenes which drag the film down, making it a tad difficult to sit through.
