Actor Vicky Kaushal took to Instagram today to pay tribute to Shaheed Sardar Udham Singh, one of India’s most revered freedom fighters. Sharing a portrait of Udham Singh on his Instagram Story, Vicky wrote:
“Remembering Shaheed Sardar Udham Singh Ji”
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Vicky, who portrayed the revolutionary martyr in the acclaimed 2021 biopic Sardar Udham, has often spoken about how deeply the role impacted him. The film, directed by Shoojit Sircar, depicted Singh’s life and his assassination of General Michael O’Dwyer in 1940 — an act of revenge for the Jallianwala Bagh massacre.
Udham Singh remains an enduring symbol of courage and resistance in India’s fight against British colonial rule. Vicky’s heartfelt tribute comes on a day when many across the country pause to remember the patriot’s sacrifice.
Fans and followers lauded the actor for continuing to honour the revolutionary’s legacy, particularly given his personal connection to the role.
