23RD MARCH 1931 SHAHEED, tells the story of the freedom fighter
Shaheed Bhagat Singh.
The story begins in Lahore when Bhagat Singh is just a small boy
- a growing child exposed to an environment of British rule in
India. His sharp mind, though very young, is full of curiosity and
reasoning.
Death does not frighten Bhagat Singh as a teenager. Growing into
a college-attending adult does not distract Bhagat Singh from his
goal. As a young man, he takes on the British rulers in India.
Bobby Deol is just about okay. Sunny Deol, like always, is
efficient. His introductory sequence – when he squeezes an
eve-teaser - is sure to be greeted with claps and cheers.
Amrita Singh, seen on the big screen after a hiatus, makes her
presence felt. Rahul Dev (as Sukhdev) and Vicky Ahuja (as Rajguru)
get no scope. Suresh Oberoi, Shakti Kapoor, Divya Dutta and Akshay
Anand lend decent support.
