	The Hindu : Entertainment Chennai / Film Review : The canvas is not complete
		Instead, Ketan Mehta's ``Mangal Pandey" uses school text-book clippings of the First War of Independence and a subsequent fl and white documentary reel of the freedom struggle to showcase the pay-off of Mangal's dream.
		Which is why ``Mangal Pandey" is very different in genre from Mehta's earlier work ``Sardar." The intention here is not quite to make a docu-drama, but a shameless albeit inspiring cinematic tribute to the first recorded martyr of the freedom struggle.
		Aamir as Mangal Pandey does come across as the hot-headed emotional sepoy who transforms from a disciplined soldier to a rebel patriot.

		A.R.Rahman's music doesn't seem to be his best or probably the oddity of songs' situation fails to create that musical impact, but 'Mangal Mangal' song is a spot-on to the theme and the central character.

	Mangal Pandey The Rising — Review : Bollywood News : ApunKaChoice.Com
		‘Mangal Pandey The Rising’ is not so much a delineation of the life sketch of the revolutionary martyr Mangal Pandey as it is about the rise of individual and collective consciousness in Indians to wrest back their lost freedom from the colonial British.
		Since the sepoys in the regiment are supposed to bite the cartridge and tear it with teeth before loading the gun, the soldiers in the regiment refuse to use the new cartridge.
		Pandey’s angst against the British and his determination to fight back his freedom from the colonial rulers gets so strong that he single-handedly stands to fight against a whole regiment, only to be martyred later.

		At one hand mehta says pandey didn't touch the shudra and at one hand he touches a prostitute,even more bad of a orthodox brahmin (although truly caste system is the varna system and it was based on varnai.e.

	Bollywood - Film Review - Mangal Pandey
		The exposition patiently stretched for the first 70 minutes of the film, "Mangal Pandey" really kick starts just a reel before the intermission.
		Once Pandey´s goal is finally identified, the story thickens, performances impress, as does the exploration of the East India Company´s political games.
		Despite the epic canvas and colossal production value, "Mangal Pandey" fails to make its mark as the classic it was expected to be.

	Mangal Pandey - The Rising - Deccan Herald - Internet Edition (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Mangal Pandey, the sepoy who served the British East India Company and later rebelled against it, comes to life in Mehta's biopic, Mangal Pandey - The Rising, that has been laced with fictitious instances and characters.
		The sepoys are to bite the cartridge and tear it open before loading the gun, which they promptly refuse as it is against their religion.The sepoys are assured that no animal fat is used in the manufacture, but days later the truth comes out.
		Mehta’s film does not explore deep about Mangal Pandey's life but traces the transformation of a man who fought for the British and later became the first revolutionary against them and perhaps the first martyr in India's struggle for freedom.

	Mangal Pandey - The Rising
		'Mangal Pandey - The Rising' is many things - a huge film with a big star cast, Aamir's first release in four years (as he teams up with his 'Ghulam' co-star) and the ruling Rani of Bollywood.
		If you have forgotten the sacrifices of Bharat Mata's patriotic sons, Bhagat Singh's and Mangal Pandey's." Coming to the track, we have to go overboard (as some may think) and make a bold statement (repeating what Aamir says) "Here is the patriotic song of the decade" and that too in three different flavors/variations.
		This track will definitely move the hearts and souls of all the patriotic Indians, many centuries after the sacrifice of Mangal Pandey.
