June 7, 2002 was a very unusual day for Bollywood. Two biopics, based on the revolutionaries Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru, released on the same day in the form of The Legend Of Bhagat Singh and 23rd March 1931 Shaheed. The former, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, starred Ajay Devgn, Sushant Singh and D Santosh while the other one was helmed by Guddu Dhanoa, Rahul Dev, Vicky Ahuja and Sunny Deol.
