Subhas Chandra Bose allied with Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan to fight the British Empire for Indian independence. He escaped house arrest, met Hitler, flew to Japanese-occupied Southeast Asia, and raised an army from prisoners of war to invade British India. Hero to some, traitor to others — he remains one of India's most controversial figures.

This episode traces Bose from his Bengali childhood through the rivalry with Gandhi, the Axis alliances, and the mysterious plane crash death that conspiracy theorists still dispute.

  • The rivalry with Gandhi over violent versus nonviolent methods
  • The escape from India and the submarine journey to Nazi Germany
  • The Indian National Army raised from POWs in Japanese territory
  • The mysterious 1945 plane crash death that some Indians refuse to accept
