Calling Sehmat by Harinder Sikka







I recommend first reading the book and then watching the movie. The book is much better than the film. The film adaptation of the book "Raazi" is excellent.

The plot is fantastic, and it is also inspiring because it is based on an actual event about a young lady who takes enormous risks for her nation.

Sehmat's parents, Tej and Hidayat Khan, had a love story that begins the plot. Tej travels to Kashmir and meets Hidayat, who captivates him. The action then resumes up when Sehmat is in college and highly talented. Hidayat has contacts in Pakistan due to his trading relationships, and he provides vital intelligence to Indian Intelligence. In 1971, as tensions between India and Pakistan rose, he fell gravely ill. The situation in East Pakistan is bleak and troubling for Pakistan, and the country is eager to undertake a pre-emptive strike against India. Hidayat concludes that he has no choice except to appoint Sehmat in his stead.

Sehmat must give up her feelings for Abhinav to marry Iqbal, the son of a powerful official in Pakistan's armed forces. She encounters a variety of tense circumstances yet emerges as an invaluable source of intelligence for India.

Compared to the movie, the book provides additional context for Sehmat's college life, love life, hopes, and what occurs after she completes her task. After completing the book, the film "Raazi" won't add much.

75th Independence Day

Image
  Good morning, everyone. And a happy 75th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Today, our country remembers and honours its freedom fighters. I want to dedicate this Independence Day to all front-line workers (FLW), whose tremendous efforts helped save millions of lives during the pandemic. Especially scientists who developed covid vaccines at such a rapid pace. I want to pay tribute to the victims of the deadly virus. The agony of losing them will always haunt us. But we must also consider our country's challenges. High inflation and rising unemployment are causing problems in the challenging economy. But I'm proud of India's performance in the Tokyo Olympics. India's best performance this year in Tokyo has resulted in seven medals — one gold, two silver, and three bronze — an increase from the six it won in London in 2012. I recall celebrating Independence Day at school. I used to ride my bicycle to school. It was easy to ride a bicycle that day because we...
