Gandhi Godse - Ek Yudh[3] is a 2023 Indian-Hindi language alternate history film written and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, and produced by Manila Santoshi] . The film stars Deepak Antani and Chinmay Mandlekar in the lead roles.[4] Gandhi Godse - Ek Yudh[5] was released in India on 26 January 2023, coinciding with the Indian Republic Day. It received mixed reviews from critics, who praised its performances, visual style, cinematography, but criticized its screenplay and story.[6][7][8]

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?

Cast

Production

Santoshi confessed in pre-release promotions that it was hard to receive investment for such a large scale film with a potentially controversial subject. He added that it was only after composer A. R. Rahman accepted to do the film, investors started showing interest, and the film may not have been made if Rahman said 'no'.[9]

Filming commenced on 20 September 2020 and was wrapped on 6 May 2022. Bhopal and Mumbai served as the principal locations.
