When did bapu go to the theater for the first and last time?
Father of the Nation mahatma gandhi was born on october 2. Born in Porbandar, Gujarat, bapu not only gave his all to get the country independence but his ideals are still inspiring the country. Today we will tell you the story of when mahatma gandhi reached the theatre to watch a film for the first and last time and he too returned after watching half the film. Actually, Mahatma gandhi did not have any special interest in films and cinema. But once he also went to the theater to watch a film. The special thing is that this film was woven around his ideals. But bapu did not like this film very much.
Which film did gandhiji watch?
If reports are to be believed, mahatma gandhi had seen only one film in his life. Whose name is Ramrajya. This film was based on those ideals of bapu which he considered important to bring Ramrajya in the country. This film, which was released in 1943, had a story based around Bapu's ideals. Impressed by director Vijay Bhatt's words, Bapu decided to watch the film.
Bapu came out after watching half the film
Many people hoped that after this film, Bapu's perspective towards cinema might change. But this did not happen because bapu left the theatre leaving the film halfway. According to reports, bapu never watched any film after this. This was the first and last time mahatma gandhi watched a film.
Many films were made on mahatma gandhi in india and abroad. These films not only gained fame from an artistic point of view, but many films proved to be bumper hits at the box office. But there was no special place for cinema in Bapu's life. He had a different perspective about cinema and its impact on society, perhaps that is why he always kept a distance from films.
