Note de ashtrips
Freedom at Midnight on Sony Liv reinvigorates the story of India's Independence and partition with fresh energy. Anchored by stellar performances-Mountbatten, Edwina, Attlee, and Jinnah-it balances historical depth with sharp, modern storytelling. Gandhi and Nehru may seem miscast initially but evolve into compelling portrayals.
Focusing on key events like the Muslim League's Direct Action Plan, Congress-Muslim League tussles, 1937 provincial elections, the series skips exhaustive timelines in favor of precision. Highlights include Gandhi's Indigo Satyagraha, where his quiet resolve awes a young Nehru, the layered tension between Jinnah and Nehru, the contrasts between Nehru and Vallabhbhai among others.
With top-tier production-authentic sets, flawless costumes, and pitch-perfect casting-the series sets a new standard for period dramas. Understated performances by Edwina Mountbatten and VP Menon leave a mark, while Louis Mountbatten brings charisma and sophistication. Tight screenplay and sharp dialogues create a thriller-like momentum moving towards partition.
Director Nikhil Advani expertly handles sensitive themes with nuance and objectivity, avoiding glorification or clichés. Freedom at Midnight is a must-watch for its balanced narrative, stunning execution, and fresh take on history.
