As a child, Harilal (Akshaye Khanna) grew up resenting his absent father, Mahatma Gandhi (Darshan Jariwala). As he grows to adulthood, he rebels, intentionally rejecting every tenet of his father's philosophy, exploiting his family name to bilk the faithful and converting to Islam. Feroze Khan directs this searing drama based on a little-known aspect of Gandhi's life, adapted from the book by Chandulal Dalal.
Director: Feroz Khan
Event is sponsored by the students of Masala-SACE (South Asian Cultural Exchange) and the Office of Active Citizenship and Service (OACS)
