Republic Day is here! After finishing the morning parade rituals, we tend to forget about the significance of the day and proceed with our routine of a lazy holiday. This Sunday, watch a patriotic movie instead to instil that feeling of pride for your country. Take a look at Wedding Affair’s picks for a patriotic movie this Sunday.
1. Lagaan
This one is an old-time favourite of many. The people of a small village in Victorian India stake their future on a game of cricket against their ruthless British rulers.
2. Chak De! India
This is an emotional story of Kabir Khan who must lead the Indian National Women’s Hockey team to victory. Take this emotional ride of a story, this Sunday to enjoy your Republic Day.
3. Rang De Basanti
Rang De Basanti isn’t just a movie — it is an emotion. The story of six young Indians who assist an English Woman to film a documentary on the freedom fighters from their past, and the events that lead them to relive the long-forgotten saga of freedom.
4. URI: The Surgical Strike
Uri is the latest favourite of our generation when it comes to patriotic movies. In the movie, Indian army special forces execute a covert operation, avenging the killing of fellow army men at their base by a terrorist group.
5. Border
In 1971, along the border region of Longewala, a small battalion of Indian soldiers goes up against a large Pakistani strike force.

Kesari is another modern favourite of the masses. This is based on an incredible true story of the Battle of Saragarhi in which an army of 21 Sikhs fought against 10,000 Afghans in 1897.
7. The Legend Of Bhagat Singh
Starring Ajay Devgn, it is the story of a young revolutionary who raised an armed resistance against the British rule in India.
8. Swades
