‘Bharat’ chronicled the emotional journey of a man and his nation. Apart from Salman-Katrina, the film also starred Jackie Shroff, Tabu, Sunil Grover, Sonali Kulkarni and Aasif Sheikh in pivotal roles.

The film had Salman sporting five varied looks and that was one of the highlights of this much talked about film. Its soundtrack and the emotional portrayal of the father-son bond made the film a huge hit with the masses. And looking at the film’s success at the box office, it won’t be wrong to say that both the makers as well as the viewers have received their Eidi.

‘Bharat’ was an official adaptation of the hit South Korean film ‘Ode To My Father’.
