I had once remarked that India gave us Barrister Gandhi
and South Africa gave back 'Mahatma Gandhi' the great
soul".
Anil Kapoor, the famous Bollywood actor who produced
the movie said that South Africa is the best place to
premiere the movie, as the journey of the Mahatma began
there.
The movie, directed by Feroz Khan, is based on his play
Mahatma v/s Gandhi. Gandhi - My Father looks into Gandhi’s
relationship with his eldest son Harilal. Darshan Jariwala
plays Gandhi in the film and Harilal is played by Akshaye
Khanna. The film, which also stars Bhumika Chawla, Shefali
Shah and Daniel Janks will hit the screens across the
world in August.
Mandela is reported to have extended a special invitation
to all the stars that were present at the premiere for
a dinner.
