Ban film ‘Why I Killed Gandhi’, Maha Congress urges Uddhav Thackeray

The Maharashtra Congress on Monday urged Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray to ban the film “Why I Killed Gandhi”, set to release on various OTT platforms on January 30, the anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination.

Similarly, the All India Cine Workers Association has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi demanding a total ban on the film, which ‘seeks to glorify Gandhiji’s assassin Nathuram Godse, and its exhibition would shock the people’.

The film features Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) MP Amol Kolhe in the role of Godse, sparking friction among the ruling Maha Vikas Aghadi allies Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress since the past few days.

Shooting off a letter to CM Thackeray, state Congress President Nana Patole said Mahatma Gandhi’s ideology of truth, peace and non-violence is respected all over the world and his death anniversary is observed globally as the day symbolising his teachings.

“If the film ‘Why I Killed Gandhi’ is allowed to be released on the day of Gandhiji’s assassination, it would give strength to the fascist forces. Hence, we request you to kindly order a ban on the movie,” Patole said.

The AICWA sought a complete ban on the film’s release as it seeks to “glorifies Godse, a traitor and killer of the Father of the Nation”.

As the film ignited a massive controversy in state political circles last week, Kolhe said that he had acted in the film way back in 2017, and he had also informed the NCP leadership before leaving the Sena to join it.

Though the Congress has strongly opposed the film, the Shiv Sena has adopted a neutral stance, while the NCP feels it should be viewed creatively as a freedom of expression. The opposition BJP has said that there is nothing wrong if Kolhe plays the role of Godse.

Rashmika Mandanna unveils teaser of Priyamani’s next film

Rashmika Mandanna, who was recently seen on the big screen essaying the role of Srivalli in the multi-lingual superhit, “Pushpa: The Rise”, unveiled the teaser of “Bhamakalapam” on Sunday.

The delicious home-cooked thriller, directed by Abhimanyu Tadimeti, will premiere on the Telugu OTT platform aha on February 11. Filmmaker Bharat Kamma, known for “Dear Comrade”, is the showrunner.

“It felt so funny the moment I saw the teaser,” Rasmika said. “There’s a lot of interesting ideas. It’s a sweet story but shot in a very funny, interesting way. I wish Priyamani garu, who’s playing the role of Anupama, loads of love.”

The teaser is set amid an old apartment, revolving around a homemaker, Anupama, who runs a YouTube cookery channel and is also notorious for being a gossip and poking her nose into the matters of other families. She even says it’s great fun to know what’s going on in other people’s lives.

In the middle of a rainy night, the focus shifts to a cold-blooded murder in the apartment. There’s a lot of mystery surrounding the crime scene, with a few characters expressing their worry about something. From goons to guns and chases, it’s apparent that an anxious Anupama is in some trouble and is a key link to the murder.

Composer Justin Prabhakaran (known for scoring the music of “Radhe Shyam” and “Dear Comrade”) has done it again; Deepak Kumar has cranked the camera and Viplav is in charge of the edits.

When Salman is on board, our job gets easier: Shabina Khan on ‘Main Chala’

With the Guru Randhawa music video ‘Main Chala’, starring Salman Khan, now streaming after its release on Saturday, its director of choreography Shabina Khan says the Bollywood superstar helped her create magic on screen.

Shabina Khan said ‘Main Chala’, being a slow romantic number, grows on you, but for a choreographer, it is very difficult to execute. “But when you have an artiste such as Salman sir, your job becomes a little easier,” she said.

Commenting on what Salman Khan brings to the table, Shabina said “he adds his own style to every song”.

She added: “Whenever I am working with Salman sir, I make sure that I present him with a couple of options and take his advice on what steps he thinks will look the best, making it a collaborative effort.”

The song, written and composed by Shabbir Ahmed, and sung by Guru Randhawa and Iulia Vantur, is available on the T-Series YouTube channel.
