Considered as one of the worst disasters of the British history, Battle of Singapore did mark a special place. The British had sent their men, led by many Indian soldiers under the captaincy of Surinder Singh Sodhi (Sunny Kaushal), to fight against Japan. During the war, unknowing about the happenings at the battlefield, Indians did lose many lives to strategic war tactics by Japan.

The Japanese army had no grudges against the Indian soldiers from the British Army as Gandhiji was fighting against Britishers, and they wanted was one strong force to fight back. Despite the strong British army taking over the battlefield against 30,000 Japanese men, they had to surrender. This left 50,000 soldiers in the hands of Japan. After the Japanese takeover, the Indian soldiers were left in a soup. While 35,000 agreed and joined the Indian National Army led from Singapore, many couldn't make their mind.
