Nazre I This movie reveals a larger truth about the father-son relationship. Many fathers love their own aspirations more than their sons and even impose their own aspirations on their sons, like Mahatma Gandhi did on his own son. There is no problem with not wanting to prioritize your kids over the larger purposes, but in that case why even have kids and make a family in the first place? If you love your larger and nobler aspirations so much, then you should not be making a family in the first place.

This film explores the strained father-son relationship where Harilal not only had to sacrifice his dreams but infact he had to forfeit even his identity and Kasturba was emotionally torn between. The film sincerely digs into all the incidents of Gandhi's family which forced Harilal's family to face many odds with no recognition as being The Father of Nation's son. A must watch movie for all those who are unaware about Gandhi's descendants! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member A very good performance by Akshaye Khanna in a very complex portrayal of Gandhi's son. Good direction and editing too.A story not many will know and hence it is all the more interesting. Maybe a few lessons for all of us to learn from. It should have had much more success than it seems to have got. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member The film is about the life of Harilal Gandhi, a son whose tragedy was to live with in the shadow of a man who was father not just to him, but to a whole nation. In it's attempt to preserve the iconic figure of Mahatma Gandhi, it feels like the film failed to capture the real emotions and struggle between a father and son. Although we do get to see a different side of Gandhi which was never attempted in any movie adaptations before. Shefali Shah and towards the later parts of movie, as the older familiar version of Gandhi, Darshan Jariwala too excells in their role. This was a story which had to be told, and considering the magnitude of this movie, certain minor glitches can be forgiven.
