Watch out: The poster of Raag Desh

The much awaited Tigmanshu Dhulia film Raag Desh is all set to release on July 28. Expected to be a crossover film, it marries the historical authenticity with entertaining cinema, a genre much missed in Bollywood.

Set in the backdrop of the famous Red Fort Trials, the film recreates the era of last days of freedom struggle in India, where the battles were being fought on borders, on streets, in media and curiously enough, in the court room. The movie stars Kunal Kapoor, Amit Sadh and Mohit Marwah in the lead roles.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
