On the occasion of the 150^th anniversary of the Indian Mutiny, Zee News will telecast a special feature, 1857- Pehli Azaadi ka Sach, a comprehensively researched documentary on the event. The documentary will unravel the many myths that surround the famous uprising and contrast the British version of our history with what could have truly transpired.

While the British claim that the mutiny was a series of spontaneous, sporadic and unconnected events, Zee News presents an alternative view which points in the direction of it having been a planned uprising involving royalty, sepoys and common citizenry.

“Zee News is proud to present an inspiring programme that seeks to provide us a different view of our own history and nation,” stated Harish Doraiswamy, CEO, Zee News Limited.

The hour-long documentary will be aired on Zee News at 8pm tonight.
