- Legendary film company, The Bombay Talkies Studios along with Kamini Dube, Bombay Talkies Foundation, Vishwa Sahitya Parishad, Aazaad Federation, World Literature Organization and filmmaker Aazaad made the first film in history of Indian cinema which gives insights about life and thoughts of the greatest revolutionary Chandrashekhar Azad. His thoughts were like the flames of fire and acts were deadly blasts. The forgotten hero return back from the darkness, created by selfish politics to the silver screen as the daring and dynamic protagonist of all time created by writer, director, actor Aazaad. The nationalistic flavour - colour - nature combination of the movie is a continuation of what he has been portraying in his earlier movies. While his earlier movies had element of nationalism, Rashtraputra showcased the reality, the lesser known facts of the greatest revolutionary, Chandrashekhar Azad. Azad was not only the commander - in - chief of Hindustan Socialist Republican Army (HSRA) but an unmatched mentor, friend - philosopher - guide of over two thousand and five hundred revolutionaries of HSRA like Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, Sukhdev Thapar, Bhagwaticharan Vohra, Durga Bhabhi, Batukeshwar Dutt, Madanlal Dhingra, etc. In the true sense of meaning Chandrashekhar Azad was the supreme force of the bloodstained revolutionary freedom movement of India. In this film Rashtraputra we have shown that Azad is a timeless cinematic creation. He was, He is and he will be the relevant hero of all time. Time changes but the problems remain the same in different looks. What would Azad do, how he would react if he was alive today? He would be the same motivational force for today's youth as he was in his lifetime. Rashtraputra described as a great motivational movie with high voltage drama and entertainment values for the youth as well as the enlightened audience of twenty first century. Movie Rashtraputra is based on life and thoughts of Chandrashekhar Azad and also a tribute to all those forgotten heroes of freedom movement and to all those revolutionaries who didn't earned the fame they deserved viz.
