The Call of Swaraj

“No one ever asked who those people were whose names are displayed in schools. This time, the story will be heard from their own mouths.” Swaraj Ki Pukaar is the epic tale of the Indian freedom struggle as seen through the eyes of a young orphan, Raghu. It is not just a fight for freedom, but a long journey of choices of identity, ideology, and humanity – where at every step the question arises: “Who pays the price of Swaraj?” A boy abandoned on the streets of a village in Benares is raised by an elderly freedom fighter – but soon their lives are torn apart by British rule. Raghu is faced with a difficult decision: Will he avenge his guru’s death – or defend his principles?
