#IndianHistory #MahatmaGandhi #IndianFreedomStruggle In 1921, Mahatma Gandhi set an ambitious target: raise ₹1 crore for India's freedom movement. But where would that much money come from in a country under British rule? This is the story of the *Tilak Swaraj Fund* — an extraordinary fundraising campaign that mobilised contributions from across India, including donations of gold jewellery from women who wanted to support the freedom struggle. In this Hinglish history documentary, we explore how the fund was planned, why Bombay (now Mumbai) became a major fundraising centre, how ordinary Indians contributed, and how the campaign reached its ₹1 crore target by 30 June 1921. The story reveals an often-overlooked side of India's independence movement: the money, organisation, public participation, and personal sacrifices that helped sustain a national campaign. This fund did not single-handedly win India's independence. Instead, it formed one part of the much larger struggle that ultimately led to freedom in 1947.
