Shoojit Sircar opens up about his passion project 'Sardar Udham' ‘The fact that the world knows so little about him kept me going, I wanted to make this film’| Published 08.10.21, 01:28 PMCome October 16 and Shoojit Sircar will unveil his passion project — Sardar Udham — to the world. The courageous story of the unsung hero Udham Singh, a revolutionary who avenged the horrific Jallianwala Bagh massacre by killing General O’Dwyer, who was responsible for the loss of hundreds and thousands of lives. Shoojit — who first approached the late Irrfan with the part — has had the idea of Sardar Udham incubating within him over the last two decades, with Vicky Kaushal, in the eponymous role, now bringing his vision to life. What about the story of Udham Singh made you live with it for over two decades and make sure that you finally made it? While you were researching on the life and times of Udham Singh, was there any one aspect of him that intrigued you the most?
