Sugata Bose sings a “Hindustani” rendition of the second verse of Tagore’s Jana Gan Mana, popular among the INA soldiers. The stanza is not part of the national anthem but evokes unity and love despite India’s many differences in language and religion. The song goes like this: “Sab ke dil mein preeti basaye, teri meethi baani; har sube ke rahne wale, har mazhab ke prani; sab bhed aur pharak mitaake, sab god mein teri ake, gunthe prem ki mala”. With full-throated gusto, Bose also sang another stanza from the five-stanza song. “Ohoroho Tobo Awhbhano Pracharito/ Suni Tabo Udaaro Vaani/ Hindu Bouddho Sikh Joino/ Parosik Musolman Christaani… (Every moment your call is heard/ We hear your generous message/ Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, Jain/ Parsi, Muslim, Christian…).”
