Ae Watan Mere Watan Movie

AE WATAN MERE WATAN is the story of a brave freedom fighter. The year is 1942. Usha Mehta (Sara Ali Khan) lives in Bombay (present-day Mumbai) with her father, Justice Hariprasad (Sachin Khedekar) and aunt (Madhu Raja). Hariprasad is a staunch British loyalist and believes that without them, India wouldn't... be able to function properly. Usha, meanwhile, believes in the principles of Mahatma Gandhi (Uday Chandra). She participates in agitations along with her friends Kaushik (Abhay Verma), Fahad (Sparsh Shrivastava), Antara (Aditi Sanwal) and Bhaskar (Pratik Yadav). Balbir (Godaan Kumar), a Congress worker, notices them and asks them to join the party. On August 8, Gandhiji passes the 'Quit India' resolution and gives a new slogan to the country - 'Do or die'. The next day, the British government arrests Gandhiji and all other major leaders of the Congress. The newspapers and radio channels are censored and as a result, the voice of these leaders doesn't reach the masses. This is when Usha decides to start an underground radio station. With the help of a radio engineer, Firdaus (Anand Tiwari), she's able to set up a radio station, called Congress Radio. She plays the speeches of Congress leaders every night at 8:30 pm. Soon, people across the country learn about the radio station and it boosts them to fight the British. Dr Ram Manohar Lohia (Emraan Hashmi), who has escaped the clutches of the British, realizes that Congress Radio can be a powerful tool to gain independence. He meets Usha and his team and they decide to expand the radio's reach. Meanwhile, the British government is stunned by the impact of Congress Radio. They assign a no-nonsense officer, John Lyre (Alexx O'Nell), to kill the radio station and nab the ones running it. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
