Hansal Mehta To Make A Film On Sanjay Gandhi
| |||||
Saturday, 4th July 2015, 2:43 PM IST Hansal Mehta, who has made films like ‘Shahid’ and ‘CityLights’, is now all set to make a film on Sanjay Gandhi. The biopic will be an adaptation of Vinod Mehta’s acclaimed book ‘The Sanjay Story' which was published post the Emergency. Talking about the biopic, Hansal said, “Vinod Mehta’s book is remarkable as it is engaging, rarely judgmental and based on solid research. Not only does the book throw up surprising details on this controversial figure in Indian politics but it also recounts a tumultuous time from our past. The Emergency and its impact have always interested me. Sanjay Gandhi, his life and death have always been shrouded in mystery as has been his relationship with India’s own Iron lady & his mother, Indira Gandhi. I feel both challenged and privileged to be making this important film." The movie will start rolling next year after Hansal completes Kangana Ranaut starrer ‘Simran’.
