By reading pages of his diary, excerpts of the books written on him, watching interviews of his relatives and family members, reading the stories written descendants of his friends, decided to bring Bhagat Singh’s thoughts/ ideologies and an account of his life in a special voice who plays Bhagat Singh on air”
