A Still from 'Bose The Forgotten Hero'

The beauty of 'Bose' lies in its execution that never once looses paces and comes across as a dramatic portrayal of the actual happenings in Subhash's life. Aided by the excellent musical score by A.R. Rehman, one never gets bogged down by the fact that he is watching a historical film. Instead, the audience gets an impression that they are being entertained through a commercial potboiler. Some of the sequences that are etched in a viewer's mind after walking out of a theatre are:

- Opening conversation between Bose and Gandhiji
- Stomping of a coin bearing Viceroy's image by Bose and the character played by Rajpal Yadav
- Peshawar radio playing the classic 'Abhi To Main Jawaan Hoon'
- Entire outdoor sequences in Kabul (shot actually in Uzbekistan)
- Ila Arun offering Bose gold coins
- The flip-flop game played between Germany and Italy
- Bose's meet with Hitler
- Bose's open challenge to Germans to dare arrest him
- U-Boat journey
- Bose crying out the golden phrase 'Tum Mujhe Khoon Do Main Tumhe Azaadi Doonga'
