Episode Notes Title: The Revolution - Untold Story of Indian Freedom Struggle: Season 2, Episode 1 Introduction: A hundred years have passed since the Battle of Plassey and the colonization of India began. This episode of The Revolution focuses on the Indian Mutiny. Body: The British East India Company applied policies to gain power over India. The fight against the British East India Company became a rebellion by the people. The Doctrine of Subsidiary Alliance was introduced to make Indian states and kings puppets of the British rulers. The Indian sepoys were relied upon by the British East India Company to quell any revolts that arose. Chhabeli, a little girl from Bithur, married Maharaja Gangadhar Rao of Jhansi, and later became known as Lakshmibai. The Doctrine of Lapse was implemented to de-legitimize the rights of the adopted heirs of the princely states in India. Lord Dalhousie's misapplication of the state-grab policy fueled humiliation in the hearts of the Indian people. Nana Saheb made progress in the rebellion for three years, as advised by Azimulla Khan, while the British company was occupied with repressing peasant and tribal revolts in different parts of the nation. The disgruntled conspirators used the pretext of new rifle cartridges very skillfully to inflame the sepoys. Conclusion: Nanasaheb visited Delhi, Ambala, Lucknow, and Jhansi, and took final preparations. Rumors of the upcoming rebellion were spread across the country in strange ways.

This week, Sara brings us the story of one of India's greatest heroines and rebel leader Rani Lakshmi Bai!  As the British East India Company tightened its grip on India by violating Hindu traditions, stealing land from Indian landowners and replacing India's leaders with British military officials, the people of India grew more and more angry. When rebellion breaks out in Jhansi, Queen Lakshmi Bai tries to play by the British "rules" to maintain order, but when they betray her and threaten her execution this badass rani takes no time in combining forces with the other rebellion leaders in a display of force the Brits are not expecting. How does this "Jezebel of India" build an army, escape a siege, ride almost 100 miles in a day and lead the rebel armies into combat?

The Indian Rebellion of 1857 began as a mutiny of sepoys of the East India Company's army on 10 May 1857, in the town of Meerut, and soon escalated into other mutinies and civilian rebellions largely in the upper Gangetic plain and central India, with the major hostilities confined to present-day Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, northern Madhya Pradesh, and the Delhi region.The rebellion posed a considerable threat to Company power in that region, and was contained only with the fall of Gwalior on 20 June 1858. The rebellion is also known as the India's First War of Independence, the Great Rebellion, the Indian Mutiny, the Revolt of 1857, the Uprising of 1857, the Sepoy Rebellion, and the Sepoy Mutiny. The Mutiny was a result of various grievances. However the flashpoint was reached when the soldiers were asked to bite off the paper cartridges for their rifles which were greased with animal fat namely beef and pork. This was, and is, against the religious beliefs of Hindus and Muslims. Other regions of Company-controlled India – such as Bengal, the Bombay Presidency, and the Madras Presidency remained largely calm.In Punjab, the Sikh princes backed the Company by providing soldiers and support. The large princely states of Hyderabad, Mysore, Travancore, and Kashmir, as well as the smaller ones of Rajputana, did not join the rebellion. In some regions, such as Oudh, the rebellion took on the attributes of a patriotic revolt against European presence. Maratha leaders, such as the Lakshmibai, the Rani of Jhansi, became folk heroes in the nationalist movement in India half a century later; however, they themselves "generated no coherent ideology" for a new order.qaThe rebellion led to the dissolution of the East India Company in 1858. It also led the British to reorganize the army, the financial system and the administration in India. India was thereafter directly governed by the crown as the new British Raj.The podcast is under an hour, brief but informative and the history hit you are looking for.Please review!

However the flashpoint was reached when the soldiers were asked to bite off the paper cartridges for their rifles which were greased with animal fat namely beef and pork. This was, and is, against the religious beliefs of Hindus and Muslims. Other regions of Company-controlled India – such as Bengal, the Bombay Presidency, and the Madras Presidency remained largely calm.In Punjab, the Sikh princes backed the Company by providing soldiers and support. The large princely states of Hyderabad, Mysore, Travancore, and Kashmir, as well as the smaller ones of Rajputana, did not join the rebellion. In some regions, such as Oudh, the rebellion took on the attributes of a patriotic revolt against European presence. Maratha leaders, such as the Lakshmibai, the Rani of Jhansi, became folk heroes in the nationalist movement in India half a century later; however, they themselves "generated no coherent ideology" for a new order.qaThe rebellion led to the dissolution of the East India Company in 1858. It also led the British to reorganize the army, the financial system and the administration in India. India was thereafter directly governed by the crown as the new British Raj.The podcast is under an hour, brief but informative and the history hit you are looking for.Please review!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! TALK ART CONTINUES!!! Russell & Robert meet iconic British artist Dr Chila Kumari Singh Burman who has recently transformed the front of Tate Britain into a celebration of bright lights and swirling colour for their annual Winter Commission. This extraordinary work has brought much needed joy to Londoners during the recent lockdown, due to its outdoors location on Tate's Millbank façade.Since the late-1970s, Burman has explored the experiences and aesthetics of Asian femininity in paintings and installations, photography and printmaking, video and film. In more recent works, this theme has taken on a new power and vibrancy. Challenging stereotypical assumptions of Asian women, her work is informed by popular culture, Bollywood, fashion, found objects, the politics of femininity, the celebration of feminity; self-portraiture exploring the production of her own sexuality and dynamism; the relationship between popular culture and high art; gender and identity politics. Her magnificent current Tate Britain installation, "Remembering A Brave New World", combines Hindu mythology, Bollywood imagery, colonial history and personal memories. Inspired by the artist’s childhood visits to the Blackpool illuminations and her family’s ice-cream van, Burman covers the façade of Tate Britain with vinyl, bling and lights. She changes the figure of Britannia, a symbol of British imperialism, into Kali, the Hindu goddess of liberation and power. The many illuminated deities, shapes and words are joined by Lakshmibai, the Rani (queen) of Jhansi. Lakshmibai was a fierce female warrior in India’s resistance to British colonial rule in the 19th century.Burman is celebrated internationally for her radical feminist practice, spanning printmaking, drawing, painting, installation and film. Her Punjabi and Liverpudlian heritage enrich her self-expressive work. Burman mashes up stereotypes to create new identities, beyond the limitations imposed on South Asian women in a British cultural context. The commission opened to coincide Diwali, the Festival of Light. It is a celebration of new beginnings, the triumph of good over evil, light over darkness. "Remembering A Brave New World" takes inspiration from the luminous struggles and victories of the past to offer hope for a brighter future.Follow @ChilaBurman on Instagram.

Hollywood often seeks to create stories about "strong women." But, sometimes truth is better fiction. In The Warrior Queen of Jhansi, director Swati Bhise and her daughter, Devika Bhise, in the lead role of the Rani of Jhansi, bring the life of Lakshmibai to the big screen in a sweeping historical epic. Historically, the Rani of Jhansi was a queen deposed by the British East India Company. The company used the Doctrine of Lapse to invalidate her husband's heir in an attempt to usurp her kingdom. The Rani instead united several kingdoms of India in rebellion and trained the women as warriors to fight back.  The film takes us through the Rani's last few years and how she used her diplomatic savvy and knowledge of war strategy to defy British conquest. Devika Bhise's charisma leaps offscreen. She holds herself as a true queen and warrior and the audience will immediately want to follow her into battle by the end of the film.  The film also accurately depicts how the British East India Company used brutality and double-dealing to push further and further into India, even turning their backs on their allies.  Swati Bhise has created a film that illustrates the power of a woman to wield the will of her people and create a movement that makes her a legend. It's by no means a perfect film but it's objective and engages on a level such films rarely attempt. Listen to Shanna and Ro talk more about The Warrior Queen of Jhansi. More importantly, go see this film in theaters.    Like what you hear? Subscribe so you don't miss an episode!

Team India’s wrist spin duo of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal have been instrumental in Virat Kohli and boys’ rise to the top of the tables in limited-overs cricket in the last year. This has prompted Test spin spearhead R Ashwin to work on bowling leg-spin. The Kings XI Punjab spinner will put this practice to test during the upcoming Indian Premier League.

Prof. Sunil Khilnani explores the life of Lakshmibai, Rani of Jhansi, the queen who fought against the British and became a heroine of India's 1857 Rebellion. "The Rani was certainly no ordinary queen," he says of the woman who was listed by Time magazine as one of its 'Top Ten Badass Wives'. A typical day for Lakshmibai involved weightlifting, wrestling and steeplechasing - all before breakfast. Yet, despite her physical prowess, she was a reluctant rebel. She was drawn into the uprising only when the British annexed Jhansi after her husband died. The legend goes that, when the Rani's fort was under siege from the British, she mounted her horse, her young son holding on tight behind her, and leapt to freedom from the ramparts. The most iconic image of the Rani of Jhansi is at her last stand, in battle: again on horseback with her sword held high and the reins of her horse between her teeth. It's an image that evokes powerful Hindu goddesses like Kali and Durga. However, Sunil Khilnani argues that, by ascribing its heroines extra-human powers, supposedly to celebrate them, India is in fact denying the reality of women's experience.
