For us, as Indians, October 2 isn’t just another date nor it is just another national holiday. It is the birthday of our dearest Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi. The man who fought through his non-violent ways and got India its freedom from the oppression of the Britishers. Today marks his 150th Birth Anniversary. Our film industry, too, has always glorified his teachings and have tried to use the power of their art to give the message of Bapu to one and all.
Non-violence and equality above all, have stayed with all of us all our lives. Even Bollywood hasn’t shied away from celebrating his teachings in their own unique way. Some of the movies that have been made on the life of Bapu have been a work of brilliance and have left a lasting impact on everyone across the world. Today, on his birthday, we bring forth a collection of top 5 Bollywood films that have not only glorified Bapu’s teachings but have also celebrated the true Gandhian spirit.
Take a look:
Lage Raho Munna Bhai: Rajkumar Hirani’s blockbuster movie, Lage Raho Munna Bhai was a second part of the first movie. However, this movie, starring Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, Vidya Balan, Boman Irani and Dilip Prabhavalkar as Gandhi Ji, was one of the most entertaining films ever made on Bapu. The movie depicted how a gangster’s life changed after he followed the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi. The movie was one of the most successful films in Bollywood and is still loved by all.
Gandhi:Hollywood actor, Ben Kingsley, playing the role of Gandhi in the movie left everyone spellbound. The star similarity in his looks with Bapu was what left the audience absolutely intrigued. Richard Attenborough’s 1982 film, Gandhi, was a biopic on Bapu’s life. Indian actors like Amrish Puri, Om Puri and Saeed Jaffrey were also a part of the film. Through his sheer brilliance, Ben Kingsley was able to relive Mahatma Gandhi on screen and, the movie, till date is one of the best work of art in Bollywood. He even won an Oscar for this movie.
Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara: Directed by Jahnu Barua, Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara is a movie that left everyone intrigued about Gandhi Ji’s death. The movie revolves around a retired professor who was played by Anupam Kher who suffers from Dementia and then feels he shot Gandhi Ji accidentally while playing with his toy gun. The movie shows his story and also glorifies the spirit of Mahatma Gandhi. Anupam Kher went on to win a Special Jury award At the National Film Awards for this film.
Hey Ram: Directed by Kamal Haasan, Hey Ram was a semi-fictional movie that starred Shah Rukh Khan, Rani Mukerji and Kamal Haasan himself. The movie was centered on India's Partition and the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi by Nathuram Godse. The movie won 3 National Awards and is still considered one of the most different films ever made on Mahatma Gandhi.
The Making Of The Mahatma: Directed by Shyam Benegal, the movie was based on the life of Mahatma Gandhi where Actor Rajit Kapoor played his role. It was based on the early life of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and how his personality was shaped. The movie was critically acclaimed and won 2 National Film Awards.
2.0 which is touted as the most expensive Indian movie is garnering headlines as the makers of the movie has released a BTS video of the same.

In the video, they have revealed few facts about VFX team and process, some visualization stills, BTS works of choreographer, cinematographer and editor among others. From BTS we can gauge why the movie is much-awaited and one of the biggest Indian films.
For the unversed, 2.0 is the sequel to the 2010 movie Enthiran (Robot). The movie had starred Aishwarya Rai and Rajinikanth in titular roles. The same is written and directed by S. Shankar, co-written by B. Jeyamohan, and produced by Subaskaran Allirajah. The movie is all set to release on 29 November 2018.

Talking about movie's release, the movie was supposed to be release one and half years back. But that never happened as one of the VFX teams required more time to deliver their services. The movie's director Shankar had revealed how one of the VFX companies asked for another year to complete their work and how later they shifted to altogether new VFX company as they were unable to fulfill the deadline. Are you excited for the movie? What are your views on the VFX of the film? Let us know in the comments below.

Love it head to toe!
Karan Kundra and Yogita Bihani starrer daily soap Dil Hi Toh Hai was one of the anticipated shows and the same received a good response from the viewers when it started off. The show which airs Sony TV is loosely based on Karan Johar's famous movie Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. There were a lot of rumors on whether who will play the iconic roles. Now the latest reports suggest that the serial which was Sony's ambitious project may go off air soon.
As per Bollywoodlife's report, the show which is a venture by The Balaji Telefilms will pull off their plugs by next month. The reason behind the same is poor TRP ratings. "Yes, by next month the show will go off the air. Everyone on the sets has been informed about the same, including the cast," a sourced told Bollywood life. Also, the report suggested how the show will be replaced by Ladies Special 2. The serial is the sequel to Ladies special. The promos of the serial have been shot as well.
For the unversed, the serial which is a romantic drama features Karan Kundra and Yogita Bihani in the titular roles. Both the actors had replaced the original choices by the makers. Kundra had replaced Omkar Kapoor of Pyar Ka Punchnama 2 fame, on the other hand, Bihani stepped into the shoes of Erica Fernandes who is right now playing the role of Prerna in Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2. The serial was kind of return of Karan to TV again. Talking about other serials by Balaji, their shows such as Naagin 3, Qayamat Ki Raat, Kumkum Bhag, Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2 and Kundali Bhagya, are doing quite well.
