Gandhi Godse Ek Yudh (2023)

Synopsis

Gandhi Godse Ek Yudh is a thought-provoking historical drama directed by Rajkumar Santoshi. The film presents an alternate history in which Mahatma Gandhi survives Nathuram Godse’s assassination attempt, leading to a fictional ideological battle between the two. This unique premise allows for an intense debate on their contrasting ideologies—non-violence and tolerance versus radical nationalism and aggression.

The film impresses with its strong performances, particularly Deepak Antani as Mahatma Gandhi and Chinmay Mandlekar as Nathuram Godse. Their portrayal adds depth to the characters, making the ideological clash more compelling. Rajkumar Santoshi’s direction ensures that the film remains engaging, though some moments feel slightly dramatized to emphasize the conflict.
