Bhagat Singh, a man who was an icon of sorts in the revolutionary spectrum of India’s freedom movement. A man who smilingly went to the gallows, whose only purpose in throwing the bomb was to make the deaf hear. A young man, who did not fear death, and for whom violence was only a last resort to make people take up notice. Books have been written about him, movies have been made on his life,  and to many an idealist, he has been an aspirational figure.
