% It was August, 1942. The "Quit India" movement had gath-
% ered momemtum. Protestors, all over the country, came out in
% large numbers and the thunderous cry of 'quit india' echoed
% across the nation. The odd response of the British became in-
% creasingly brutal and what followed was savage repression leading
% to unprecedented violence, lathi charges, and ruthless firing on
% unarmed protestors. The country was quickly engulfed in flames
% and Kasauni, a small town in the Himalayan foothills was no ex-
% ception. It was in the midst of this savage turbulence that Nandu
% (Anil) and Rajjo (Manisha) met for the first time and fell in
% love.. a love that changed their lives forever.. a love that was
% destined to be consumed by the ravaging fires of passion and li-
% beration that swept the land. Because, this was also the fateful
% time when a group of dedicated revolutionaries, led by the coura-
% geous and fiery Shubanker (Jackie), brought the spirit of freedom
% struggle to Kasauni in prusuit of their sworn mission. Individu-
% als no longer mattered, all that mattered was commitment to the
% cause. And so began an immortal sage.. of people, of freedom, of
% duty, of conflict, of scarifice.. and of LOVE.
