Prime Video series ‘The Revolutionaries’ release

Overview

Prime Video announced the upcoming premiere of its Hindi Original period drama, ‘The Revolutionaries’, scheduled for September 11, 2026. Directed by Nikkhil Advani and inspired by Sanjeev Sanyal’s book, ‘Revolutionaries: The Other Story Of How India Won Its Freedom’, the series depicts the lives of four figures involved in armed resistance against the British Empire: Rash Behari Bose, Sachindra Nath Sanyal, Pratibha Lahiri, and Bagha Jatin.

A trailer released ahead of the premiere highlighted the cast, including Bhuvan Bam as Rash Behari Bose, a ‘master of disguise’, and Rohit Saraf as Sachindra Nath Sanyal. Other cast members include Gurfateh Pirzada as Bagha Jatin, Pratibha Ranta as Pratibha Lahiri, and Jason Shah as General Dyer. The production is handled by Emmay Entertainment, with Monisha Advani and Madhu Bhojwani producing.

Following its premiere on September 11, 2026, the series has been noted for its massive scale, immersive universe, and high-quality cinematography. However, some critics have observed a ‘heavy emphasis on spectacle over character depth and interiority’.

Upon its release, the series began streaming in Hindi, with dubbed versions also available in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, and Bengali. The narrative, which begins in 1912, spans multiple locations including Delhi, Dehradun, Benaras, Calcutta, Lahore, and Punjab, focusing on the secrecy and armed resistance of young individuals against the British Raj.
