Rubaru (Face to Face)

On 26^th January 2006, Rang De Basanti (RDB) was released worldwide. RDB captured both the zeitgeist and the confusion of India’s youth at a critical juncture in their country’s history. Crippled by corruption in the bureaucracy and polity, should they accept things as they are and reap the benefits of economic liberalization or should they take a cue from the revolutionaries in their history and risk their lives of comfortable numbness to try and CHANGE the system?

And they chose CHANGE.

People adopted RDB as their own baby and the media dubbed it as “THE MOVIE THAT BECAME A MOVEMENT”. The impact it had, and continues to have 8 years on, on the collective consciousness of the nation is something no movie has ever achieved in the history of cinema.

Rubaru captures the essence behind the making of the movie and its impact on the people of India long after its release.
