Rang De Basanti has completed 17 years since its release in 2006. The movie looked at patriotism through the eyes of the youth and remains relevant to date. It is one of Aamir Khan‘s most popular movies and enjoys a cult following. On the occasion of its 17th anniversary, fans have trended the hashtag ’17 years of RDB on social media’. Apart from the hashtag, fans have also been sharing their memories of watching Rang De Basanti and the movie’s stills are going viral on social media.
Rang De Basanti follows the story of a group of university students whose carefree lives go for a toss when one of their own dies due to corrupt practices of the government. The friends, led by DJ (Aamir Khan), then seek revenge. In the movie, parallels are drawn between the youth of today and the revolutionaries who sacrificed their lives during the struggle for India’s Independence. RDB, directed by Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra, is widely considered one of the best films in Bollywood.
