We watched Shershah on Amazon Prime Original, which told the tale of the immortal Captain Vikram Batra's sacrifice in the Kargil War. Raazi by Meghna Gulzar told the tale of a spy at the height of the Bangladesh Liberation War. It is our understanding that the filmmaker drew inspiration from the manner in which the war of 1971 was won. This film explores the remarkable life of Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw, who was referred to by his fellow soldiers as "Sam Bahadur.”
Why Did Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw become appointed?

Sam Manekshaw, the Chief of Army Staff, gained great fame and longevity in the public eye as a result of his involvement in the Bangladesh liberation struggle. Sam was prepared to confront the consequences of the 1971 war head-on, despite their willingness to slander a military hero. Sam's employment in the army was nearly lost on many occasions in the past. Sam was forced into difficult circumstances and overcame them. The guy known as "Sam Bahadur" of the Gorkha regiment gave several candid interviews, and this moniker clung to the amazing individual who offered the Indian army everything, even combat triumphs.
Many questioned if Sam was the best candidate for the Field Marshal position that should have been granted to him in light of his contentious interviews. A few people, including the then-prime minister Indira Gandhi, seemed to have benefited from Sam's candor. Sam Manekshaw eventually attained the title of Field Marshal, which is the highest position in the elite Indian Army according to the archives. It is impossible to replace his sacrifice and commitment to the Indian army. The guy was thrilled to have been appointed to this most important position, but he made the decision that he would prefer to remain by himself with his family.
Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw retired at the end of the Sam Bahadur movie, which angered many because he was leaving a position he was skilled at. At last, the military man had submitted and accepted a leave of absence to ensure that he continued to live a peaceful and quiet life. He is shown grinning in the final photo, which illustrates what he sacrificed for his nation as a soldier.
