Will 'The Sabarmati Report' Be a Sensational Bollywood Film?

There was a line about Gandhiji that became very popular - "Sabarmati ke shant tune kar diya kamaal...!" Now it will not be surprising if the same word Sabarmati becomes headlines once again. A film has been made, "The Sabarmati Report", which is based on the fire accident that broke out in the Sabarmati Express train at Godhra (Gujarat) station. In the fire of this train coming from Ayodhya, 59 saints (pilgrims) traveling in a bogie were burnt to death. A film has been made on the report of the same fire, "The Sabarmati Report", the film is likely to be released on May 9.

Unveiling Truth: 'The Sabarmati Report' Raises Questions

"The Sabarmati Report" is produced by Shobha Kapoor, and Ekta Kapoor in the presentation of Balaji Telefilm Limited and Vikir Film Production. Names associated with the production are Amul V Mohan and Anshul V Mohan. The director of the film is Ranjan Chandel. Artists are Vikrant Massey, Raashi Khanna, Riddhi Dogra, etc. A promotional video of the film has been released, seeing which many questions have arisen in the minds of those who know the incident of that time. Will the truth of that tragic incident ever be revealed to the people?
Vikrant Massey, who came into the limelight with '12th Fail', is a news reporter, Samar Kumar. Raashi Khanna is participating in reporting with him and Riddhi Dogra is in the role of anchor. Vikrant Massey is in the studio. Godhra news of 27 February 2002 is on the screen and the caption is: 27 February 2002, Godhra, Gujarat. Homage to 59 Innocent Lives Burnt to Death. 22 years, 2 official reports, and lots of investigation later...The Sabarmati Express.

At one point in the teaser, reporter Samar is heard saying - "The whole country is looking towards the media to know the truth and our media look at their boss before seeing the truth." It is worth noting that when a coach caught fire near Godhra Railway Station and 59 pilgrims traveling in it were burnt to ashes, all the reports of that time have not yet been able to clearly understand what happened. Did the fire start spontaneously or was it set? After this incident, a huge disturbance started in Godhra which the administration was unable to control. After 22 years, that story is coming out through a film. It is difficult to say how close the film has come to the truth.

The film "The Sabarmati Report" is a film of the same pattern as seen in some films these days. Despite the deviation from the subject, people consider 'The Sabarmati Report' to be a film on the pattern of 'The Kashmir Files' and 'Kerala Story'. It is believed that people of one community of the society had collectively murdered people of another community.
The silence of the media has also been highlighted in "The Sabarmati Report". Like - 'The whole country is looking towards the media to know the truth!' There is debate about Hindi and English among press reporters also. At one place in the teaser, the hero of the film says - "Yes, I am a Hindi person and there are crores of people like me in this country who speak Hindi. So a day will come when Hindi will become our identity again and then India will become Bharat." Film hero Vikrant Massey's previous film '12th Fail' has received a lot of praise and now his film 'The Sabarmati Report' is also ready to come in front of the audience with its own identity. It is understood that this film will also be a tough Bollywood film and will be embroiled in controversies.
