Synopsis: Swarajnama was a series of 13 episodes made for the 50th year of Indian Independence. The series was directed by Girish Karnad and anchored by karnad himself and Sushnma Prakash. It was broadcast on the National Channel of Doordarshan, the State Broadcaster, and as far as I can recall was never broadcast again.
The interesting feature of this serial is that it is not a chronological history. It is a month by month glimpse of some major events of Indian History that took place in the 190 years between 1757 ((The Battle of Plassey) and 1947. Nor is it a complete history. There are lots of events and characters that have found no place in this set of glimpses of Indian history. But it does give us a feel of 200 years of tumultuous British Rule and the slow and steady transformation of a multitude of people into one nation.
On this Republic Day, we of DDR present this to you as a mark of our respect for the Nations of the Sub-continent, for this is a shared history of us all.
Uploader's Notes:
These episodes have been painstakingly collected over time (mostly out of DD archives). The condition of the prints were somewhat poor as was the filming. We have tred to clean up the video and audio to the extent possible.
Unfortunately thre are no subtitles available.
After I ripped these, I learnt that this set of DVDs are also commercially available. I think you will still like these rips though, for they have been done with care.
