Jallian Wala Bagh is a 1977 Indian Hindi-language film written, produced and directed by Balraj Tah, with a screenplay by Gulzar. It is based on the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, also known as the Amritsar massacre, where in 1919 Colonel Reginald Dyer ordered troops under his command to fire into a crowd of unarmed Indian civilians, killing 379. It stars Vinod Khanna, Parikshat Sahni, Shabana Azmi, Sampooran Singh Gulzar, and Deepti Naval. The film is also a part-biopic of Udham Singh (played by Parikshit Sahni) who assassinated Michael O'Dwyer, the governor of Punjab at the time of the massacre, in 1940.
