Subhash Ghai ready to explode with short film
Subhash Ghai said, ‘Film making is completely based on the perspective of the society. War and conflict in the world often changes with perspective. My short film Gandhi is not just a story but an exploration of multiple perspectives. The idea came from a conversation when an 18-year-old student from Whistling Woods International talked about celebrating Gandhi Jayanti.’ He said, ‘Sir, I will not play the guitar to celebrate this occasion because I do not believe in Gandhi Jayanti and that honest expression inspired me to deeply understand the relevance of Gandhi today. I am grateful to my friend and one of the best actors we have right now, Manoj Bajpayee, for being a part of this film.
Manoj Bajpayee did this film for free
Film maker Subhash Ghai made another explosive revelation and said, ‘Manoj has not taken a single rupee for this film and he wants the young generation to understand Gandhi.’ Manoj Bajpayee said on this, ‘Subhash ji, thank you for saying that Gandhi is a point of view. Gandhiji is a role model for all of us, but there is a generation that is growing up and has misconceptions about him. I wanted to work with Subhash ji ever since I came to Mumbai. My dream of finally working with Subhash ji in this short film Gandhi is going to come true. I got a chance to spend a lot of time with him as a director and with him as an actor. I have always learned from his films.
