‘The Forgotten Army- Azaadi Ke Liye’ Web series on Amazon Prime Video Cast, Plot Wiki, Promo, Starting Date

It is based on the true story of Indian soldiers who marched towards the capital, with the war cry ‘Challo Dilli’, to free their country from the reign of the British.

The Indian National Army (INA), an armed force formed by Indian nationalists in 1942 in Southeast Asia during World War II with the aim of securing independence from British rule, was led by the charismatic Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and had the first-ever women infantry regiment anywhere in the world. While these soldiers (men and women) fought against all odds and against the British army to free India, their struggle and story somehow got lost and they became ‘the forgotten army’.

With the love story between two soldiers – Sodhi & Maya at the heart of it, the series raises several questions about identity, independence and the idea of the motherland and the cost of freedom. Freedom that we often take for granted costs countless lives and sacrifices.
