Shahid Plot

Shahid is based on a true story of a slain human rights activist and lawyer Shahid Azmi, who was was killed in 2010 by unidentified assailants in his office. From attempting to become a terrorist, to being wrongly imprisoned under a draconian anti-terrorism law, to becoming a champion of human rights (particularly of the Muslim minorities in India), Shahid traces the inspiring personal journey of a boy who became an unlikely messiah for human rights, while following the rise of communal violence in India.(c) UTV

This Hansal Mehta directed movie is worth a watch. A biopic of Shahid Azmi, an advocate who was famous for representing people falsely accused in anti-state cases, especially Muslims. Shahd gets killed, the murder is still unsolved. Rajkumar Yadav did a brilliant role as Shahid. And Hansal Mehta also did an exceptional job by keeping away obvious Bollywood dramas from this movie. The film neither tries to romanticise Azmi’s life nor tries to demonize him. It tries to show us a perspective though. Shahid is about courtrooms wherein life and death decisions are made. And Shahid also becomes the reflection of the country in itself.
