Extremely vivid scenes of violence, including rape, murder, and burning.

Large-scale acts of violence, murder, devastation, fire, and looting are confirmed by historical records. However, for dramatic effect, many specific situations (such as specific violence at specific homes or persons) are dramatised or fictionalised.

Heavy emphasis on Bengal's Hindu victims and the Muslim League's and certain leaders' responsibility.

Although there were many Hindu victims, history frequently record violence on both sides; accountability is nuanced and includes colonial policies, political leadership, and administrative shortcomings.

Depicts Gandhi at points when he suggests that nonviolence is insufficient rather than offering no resistance.

Gandhi's nonviolent ideology was widely accepted in the past, but the extent of violence severely disturbed many leaders and campaigners. It is up for debate if nonviolence "failed." The narrative framing that the movie adopts lays a large portion of the moral burden on those who promoted nonviolence.

The movie implies that after incidents of violence like Direct Action Day and the Noakhali riots, the division of Bengal (east Bengal/Bangladesh) was all but certain.

Numerous historians contend that the failure of discussions, communal rioting, and trust breakdowns all played a factor in the growing likelihood of division. However, the process had other causes, including British politics, the Congress, the League, public opinion, etc.

Contemporary analogies, suggesting that historical conflicts still reverberate and that social polarisation endures.

Drawing boundaries between the past and present is a popular practice in art and history. It is arguable whether or not there are direct analogies, but the movie's decision to make these connections is in line with a story of "history not healed."
