Prime Video has released the trailer for its upcoming series The Revolutionaries on August 26. Directed by Nikkhil Advani, the period drama is based on Sanjeev Sanyal's book Revolutionaries: The Other Story Of How India Won Its Freedom.

The show follows four young revolutionaries, Rash Behari Bose (Bhuvan Bam), Sachindra Nath Sanyal (Rohit Saraf), Bagha Jatin (Gurfateh Pirzada) and Pratibha Lahiri (Pratibha Ranta), as they plot against British rule. Jason Shah plays General Dyer, who pursues them. The series will stream on Prime Video from September 11, 2026.
Both sources frame the trailer release as a straightforward entertainment announcement. India TV News leads with the cast names and date, while NDTV adds more descriptive colour about the revolutionaries' mission and the creative team. Neither outlet discusses historical accuracy or political context. The coverage is uniform neutral reporting. The show's release on September 11 will test whether audiences engage with lesser-known figures of the independence movement.
