There have been loads of TV series made in the UK set in India, Kenya and other parts of the Empire. Funnily enough they tend to avoid mentioning the brutality of the British in dealing with the locals e.g.

For some reason these shows aren't quite as popular as they used to be...

I would watch the shit out of a TV show that really told the story of the British Raj, in all its racist, bloodthirsty, brutal "glory".

perhaps Indian arts can tell that story. it's not like they lack experience with making film. I'd be surprised if there isn't anything?
