Kargil Vijay Diwas: One of independent India`s biggest and most monumental milestones, the hard-fought victory in the Kargil War, is celebrated each year on July 26 as the `Kargil Vijay Diwas`. It is an occasion for us to look back at the films inspired by the war. Each of these movies - Shershaah, Gunjan Saxena, LOC Kargil, Lakshya, etc. - adopted a different approach. Some took a more realistic and grounded approach, others stuck to the traditional cinematic route, but each mixed together a bunch of elements, from emotions to dance, drama, romance, war, action, and, above all, patriotism and national pride.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali`s debut web series `Heeramandi` narrates the story of courtesans of the pre-independent India. While the series is already being praised for its grand world building, previous films based on courtesans have also focused on building a grand world while portraying the inner turmoil of courtesans.From Mughal-e-Azam to Gangubai Kathiawadi, different filmmakers took different approach to portray courtesan life in movies.
