Sardar Udham starring Vicky Kaushal etc.

Date of First Release: 16 October 2021

Udham Singh avenged the Jallianwala Bagh massacre by shooting Michael O’Dwyer in

London, in March, 1940. This is the story behind this fact – a tale of carrying an unhealed wound for 21 years, of unrelenting resolve and resilience, the distinct journey of ‘Sardar Udham’.

1919, Resentment against the British had been building up in Punjab. In early April, the

Lt. Governor of Punjab, Michael O’Dwyer decided to ‘restore order’ in the troubled city

of Amritsar.

On the fateful day of April 13th, over 20,000 unarmed people assembled in Jallianwala

Bagh. General Dyer reached the bagh with armed troops. Approximately 1650 rounds were fired in 10 minutes. It was a bloodbath! Only 20-years-old at the time, Udham Singh, was deeply scarred by this massacre.

In 1931, Udham escaped from India and made his way into the mountains of Afghanistan, eventually reaching London via the sea in 1933-34.

In London, he spent the most decisive 6 years of his life, to re-ignite the revolution begun by his guru, Bhagat Singh, waiting patiently, to avenge the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy, to kill the man at the helm of affairs in Punjab, Michael O’Dwyer.

And in that single-minded pursuit, gladly sacrificed his life.
