This was the spirit which inspired our hero who belonged to the masses. Rocky, the last unsung patriot in the Gomes family…which was well known for its tradition of having sacrified everything for the cause of liberation of Goa, was unlike his ancestors because his grandmother, the only surviver of the family had very cautiously kept away Rocky from the influence of politics and revolutionary movement. But he was born to be the liberator of Goa and all circumstances worked up to provide him a field so that he could become immortal. The happy go lucky Rocky turned into a maniac when his love was frustrated with the death of his beloved Maria who fell a victim to portuguese attrocities. Rocky avenged her death by killing Portuguese tyrants. Then by force of circumstances, Rocky was dragged into the revoluntary movement and he identified himself with the ideal of his country's freedom. Thus the found an opportunity and an altar to pour out all his suppressed attachment and love for his country providing his people a life of honour and grace. His sacrifices kindled a fire of freedom in each hear which was enough to burn down the malicious designs of those who do not honour the people right to be free to govern themselves.
