Bharat Ek Khoj 42: 1857, Part I
Bharat Ek Khoj-The Discovery of India
A Production of Doordarshan, the Government of India’s Public Service Broadcaster
Episode 42: 1857, Part I
With Om Puri as Soldier 1, Ravi Jhankal as Soldier 2, Murlidhar as Soldier 3, Piyush Mishra as Soldier 4, Ratna Pathak-Shah as Rani of Jhansi, Anjan Shrivastava as Wajid Ail Shah, Tom Alter as Colonel Smyth, John Holyer as Colonel Outram, Mohan Gokhale as Vishnu Pant, C.V. Kamerkar as Krishnji Pant, and Pankaj Berry as Mangal Pandey. Playback is by Murlidhar and Karsan Sangathia, and the script is by Iqtidar Alam Khan.
Nehru notes that, after nearly 100 years of British rule, the Bengal peasantry was devastated by famine and crushed by new economic burdens, while the new intelligentsia looked to the West and hoped for progress coming through English liberalism, as also in Western and Southern India. But in the upper provinces, the people generally suffered from the rapacity and ignorance of the officials of the East India Company. Absolute power over vast numbers of people had turned their heads and they suffered no check or hindrance.
The scene opens with two Brahmins preparing to leave for the capital to meet Ahalyabai Holkar, Malwa, in anticipation of her benevolence. While availing of the Brahmins‘ frugal hospitality, the Indian Sipahi group’s music apprises them of the many changes wrought by the British, who wield the ‘trader’s balance in one hand and the martial sword in the other’, and about the ouster of Indian lords taking place in Orissa, Bihar and Tanjore. The drama shows the Queen of Jhansi being capitulated to Major Elise of the British against a paltry pension and abode in the Gwalior fort.
The music narrates the agony in Bengal and then the breaking point - how cartridges of the new rifle are being greased with a tallow, probably containing both pigs‘ and cows’ fat and how these cartridges need to be bitten open with the teeth, thus defiling faiths of both Hindus and Muslims. The dramatic event of the Sepoy, Mangal Pandey articulating the protest, being gunned down in full view of others and becoming the first martyr proves the last straw.
At Meerut, a particularly insensitive British command court-martials 85 troopers for refusing to use suspect cartridges and then publicly humiliates them in front of the entire garrison. Next day, their comrades-in-arms rise to free them, break into the armoury and begin massacring the local European community. After some initial hesitation about Lucknow or Kanpur, the mutineers head for Delhi and seek out the higher authority of the Mughal emperor Bahadur Shah Zafar. Already 82 years old and having neither subjects nor troops, the effete king first hesitates, but finally endorses the insurgents‘ cause. With the Mughal co- option, the regimental mutiny acquires the character of political revolt whose legitimacy as the rightful representative of the old order, is no doubt superior to the challenged British regime.
As the events of 1857 unmistakably show, the old order was being restored : ⇧Contents⇧ : Bahadur Shah was appointing a governing council; Oudh had erupted; Kanpur had fallen; and Agra, Allahabad, Varanasi and Gwalior seethed with dissent. The symbolic feudal head in Delhi was a good enough rallying point for one and all.

This is not correct the Jhansi Ki Rani (Srimati Lakshmi Wadikar). Before marriage was suffering from low money as she did not require it as the princess of the Wadikar family. After she married my Great Grandfather Bhagwan Natha Chitroda she became the first modern Empress of India and the world and obtained more money than she could imagine. With the money as she was Martial Artist Made an army and bought British soldiers to get rid of the Unglez (French Spanish Portuguese) she also trained the Hindus and together they killed the Unglez and took over many Kingdoms. Bhagwati Lakshmi Chitroda The Jhansi Ki Rani was the last Empress ever to fight in a War🕉🔺➕

Does to history of India in 1857 what Broadway production "Hamilton" does to American history 1776. Total pooshow,.
Nations rise and fall in military prowess . But since indian Hindu subjugation was both patchy but long , so how they explain imagined cowardice to their generations in front of young lads . Best is to accept three things . Society had caste decision and hence weak fault line , second Mughal marhata and British were all gun powder empires , thirdly be it Hindus versus central Asian or British adversary had a 2000 mile backup in sea and land so resistance was futile and was damaging to Hindu traders who needed person's like Aurengzeb to provide protection to trade overseas by awe and Muslim connections . When this protection collapse Hindus chose British empire for stable trade . Hindus do not have to make mythical stories to explain weakness , they had symbiotic relationship with mughals and then British relationship
