Talking to News18, Mahadevan said, “We don’t get into a film with these kinds of doubts and fears in mind.“

Pratik Gandhi and Patralekhaa’s Phule has been awaiting its release date. It was supposed to release in Cinemas on 11 April. There were a lot of allegations that the film tries to malign the reputation of the Brahmin community.

The director of the Film has finally confirmed the release date. Anant Mahadevan said it’s releasing on April 25. The former state minister Chhagan Bhujbal had a meeting with director Anant Mahadevan and the producers to discuss the matter further.



The film is based on the life of Mahatma Phule. Mahadevan said, ‘Cinematic liberty is taken in every film, each director takes only as much of the fact is shown in the film.’ ‘This is a Hindi film based on the life of Mahatma Phule.

It seems that the director and the rest of the group have put in a lot of hard work, hence this film should be seen by all, Mahatma is a great work, not only in the country but it should reach all over the world,’ former minister Chhagan Bhujbal said. Talking to News18, Mahadevan said, “We don’t get into a film with these kinds of doubts and fears in mind. When you’re talking about a fearless couple like Jyotiba and Savitribai, if you’re going to harbour those kinds of fear, then you don’t deserve to make the film.

” The director added, “What you can do is make it honestly, stick to the facts, research, don’t exaggerate and don’t make it look unrealistic in anyway because their lives have been so dramatic that you don’t even need to take any cinematic liberties. In fact, you’ve to underplay a lot of things because it’s so dramatic!”.
