Premise
Godse holds Gandhi responsible for the partition and misery of Hindus. He shoots Gandhi on 30th January 1948 but Gandhi is miraculously saved and pardons Godse. After breaking his ties with The Congress, Gandhi begins his Gram Swaraj Movement to inspire villages towards self-reliance. Meanwhile, the system highlights Godse`s writing and manipulates public sentiment against Gandhi whose interference has created ruckus within the government. This leads to Gandhi`s arrest which he insists on serving with Godse. They have multiple debates and arguments, even confrontations in prison. Will this war of ideologies resolve their differences?
