Is The Walking Of A Nation Worth A Watch?

The title 'The Walking of a Nation' stands true for the webseries as the Jallianwala Bagh massacre indeed shaped the path of the freedom fighters for the fight for independence in the colonial era and also shook the British Government to its core.

The show, which is set during the colonial era, tells the tale of the conspiracy behind one of the most brutal incidents in history. It also showcases a lawyer, Kantilal Sahni's relentless fight in the court to prove the brutality was not an accident but a planned massacre. The director, who narrated the courtroom drama through the eyes of four friends- lawyer Kantilal Sahni, journalist Ali Allahbaksh, Hari Singh and his wife Poonam, has earlier said in an interview, "The soul of the story is four friends and their connections."

The Walking of a Nation also showcased how Kantilal's relentless fight to find proof of the wrongs that happened deliberately turns into a mission which later evokes the patriotism in many. The makers ensured that the poignant tale is portrayed with a great storytelling coupled with the commendable acting of the actors.
