Rebel Soldier) is a 1958 Indian Hindi-language film directed by Bhagwan Das Varma and starring Madhubala, Chandrashekhar and Ranjan.

[1][2][3][4] It is loosely based on the 1951 American film Quo Vadis, which in turn was adapted from the 1896 book with the same title by Henryk Sienkiewicz.

Prominent among the persecuted Christians was the character played by Baghi Sipahi’s lead actress Madhubala, who in the early 1950s had been called “the biggest star in the world” by David Cort of Theatre Arts Magazine.

Baghi Sipahi is set in Rome in Nero's time, and has a theme based on Christians and their persecution by the Roman Empire.

[10] The film tells the story of a Roman military commander, who, after returning from the war, falls in love with Ranjana, a devout Christian.
