Synopsis

Aamir Khan plays a role of a Delhi University student in Rakeysh Mehra's film 'Rang
De Basanti'. During the shoot, everyone thought that this was another period drama
from Aamir Khan mainly because of it's title and the 'Mangal Pandey' hangover. But
that isn't true.
Coming to the filmline - A young idealistic English Film-maker Sue (Alice Patten)
comes to India to make a documentary drama on Bhagat Singh and his contemporaries
during the freedom struggle. After failing to gather funds for the film, she
decides to recruit student from the Delhi University.
She finds DJ (Aamir Khan), an ex-student who passed out five years back but still
wants to be a part of the University because he doesn't think there's too much out
there in the world out there to look forward to. Aslam (Kunal Kapoor) is a middle
class Muslim boy who lives in the bylanes near Jama Masjid and is poet, philosopher
and guide to his friends. Sukhi (Sharman Joshi) is the group's baby, vulnerable and
has a weakness for only women. Laxman Pandey (Atul Kulkarni) is the fundamentalist
in the group and Sonia (Soha Ali Khan) who is a tomboy and vivacious is engaged to
Ajay (Madhavan) - a pilot. Sue's film makes DJ and his friends stop and stare at
themselves for being the actual descendants of these great men and celebrating
their courage and spirit. That is where the story of 'Rang De Basanti' begins.
Music of the film is excellent. There are ten songs in the movie. One of them is
sung by Aamir Khan. |  |
