Kangana Ranaut's latest film, 'Bharat Bhagya Viddhaata', has hit the theatres today, and audience reactions have started pouring in online. Directed by Manoj Tapadia, the film is inspired by one of the lesser-known yet extraordinary stories of courage from the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks. It shines a light on the brave nurses, doctors and hospital staff of Mumbai's Cama Hospital who risked their lives to protect nearly 400 patients during the chaos.
