Ahead of the Independence day, actress Anasuya Bharadwaj brought in a visual treat for her fans, as she recreated a look of Begum Hazrat Mahal. The actress shared the picture on Twitter, where she recreated the image in a black and white portrait.
Sharing the image, the actress said, “Honouring the Unsung Heroine of 1857: “Begum Hazrat Mahal”, the fearless revolutionary Queen of Awadh, by recreating her look. Meet Hazrat Mahal, an unsung icon of India’s past and a fearless trailblazer. In the era of the first war of Independence, she emerged as one of India’s earliest female freedom fighters. Hazrat Mahal played a crucial role in shaping India’s fight for freedom, dedicating over two decades of her life to challenging British rule. Her legacy was commemorated with a stamp on May 10, 1984, a testament to her enduring impact. This Independence Day, let’s remember and celebrate the forgotten heroes like Begum Hazrat Mahal, who inspire us with their courage and commitment.”
For the unaware, Begum Hazrat Mahal was one of the few women who challenged the British during the revolt of 1857.
On the workfront, the actress will next be seen in Pushpa: The Rule.
