Battle Of Saragarhi

In 1857, as tensions rise on the Afghan–Indian border, Ishar Singh and the 36th Sikh Regiment face repeated Orakzai attacks, strained loyalties, and broken communication lines, forcing them to prepare for an inevitable large-scale assault.

Struggling to recruit men for the regiment, Ishar Singh challenges village pride to bring new soldiers, while Churchill introduces heliograph communication to link forts—setting the stage for the creation of the strategic Saragarhi post as Gul Badshah plots his next move.

As suspicions of a traitor grow within the regiment, Ishar Singh trains young Gurmukh on the heliograph while Gul Badshah weaves deadly plots; when a trap disguised as a plea for medical help leads to the abduction of Dr. Briggs and Teresa, Ishar and his men prepare for a dangerous rescue.

Ishar Singh and his men launch a daring rescue of Dr. Briggs and Teresa from Gul Badshah’s camp, but their success comes at a cost—igniting fierce retaliation from the tribes and pushing the regiment closer to an unavoidable war.

After rescuing Teresa and Dr. Briggs, Ishar Singh’s regiment faces fresh accusations of betrayal when Sardar Khan is killed, while Gul Badshah fuels the tribes’ anger, setting the frontier on the brink of a massive uprising.

Tensions escalate as Ishar Singh defends his men against false charges of treachery, while the Orakzai plot a fierce assault, leaving the regiment bracing for the storm of rebellion.
