Bose: Dead/Alive review - Beyond Rajkummar Rao's performance, racy plot, production design stand out
In the second episode of the web series Bose: Dead/ Alive, we see the shadowy figure of a man in a train. Alt Balaji’s 9-part web series Bose: Dead or Alive addresses Indian history’s biggest controversy, the mystery behind the death of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, with entertaining doses of fiction. “Chaakri nahin karni, krantikari karni hai.” Bose’s introductory scene at Presidency College shows him beating up a British professor. And indeed, as history witnessed eventually, Bose revamped the armed forces in Indian National Army in Southeast Asia during World War II, to fight against the British for Indian Independence. While the vibe of the story never deviates from its primary tone of unravelling the mystery of whether Bose is dead or alive, the series’ real strength lies in maintaining Bose’s heroic character and the undying patriotic spirit.
