Rousing Speech: Once each by Mohan Singh and Bose, twice by Sodhi: First time when he was appointed the drill sergeant for the Rani of Jhansi Regiment, inspiring cadets with how his mother defied societal expectations and British oppression. The second time to rally the remaining members of the INA for the final battle in Burma. | |
