India’s iconic speeches

MUMBAI: Epic, the infotainment channel is all set to launch a five-part series, Bharat Ki Awaaz, every Wednesday starting from 1 August at 10 pm.   

The show has been brought to television with an effort to re-live with context and perspective, the passion and ideas of some of India’s finest orators. Their public addresses at important junctures of history roused the blood of millions - to define, build, and bind our nation together. As a nation today, it is pertinent for us to understand the words, vigour, and emotions that lifted those in despair, inspired courage and great revolutionary ideas, while refining the souls of citizens, not just of India, but the world over. More often than not, their fervent appeals culminated into some of the biggest turning points of history.

Real footage of speeches, expert comments, reactions of both applause and backlash, along with the everlasting impact they had, are covered in this mini-series.

Epic TV programming head Akul Tripathi said,  “While we will all know the words of many of these speeches, like Nehru’s ‘Tryst for Destiny’ speech on independence eve, we have rarely, if ever, actually heard or seen it. As we celebrate another independence day, Bharat Ki Awaaz is an effort to give both - a face, and perspective to some of the greatest speeches of our times.”

The first episode will be see impassioned orations by one of the most dynamic leaders of the freedom struggle – Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose who was amongst the young leaders to emerge in the 1930s. His speeches made a deep impact on Indians, wherever they lived in the world. The episode offers unique insight on why this patriot travelled to Singapore and Japan to forge alliances and build an army to fight the British in India.
