from very long and we be see movie on gandhi . and mostly and the light be always on portrayal of gandhi a freedom fighter or man with principle . but when i hear that a movie be be make which will highlight gandhi a father and stress on his relationship with his son and it instantly hit my attention a this be one territory which be least be explore a it have his own dark side and less people show courage to dwell into it . fortunetly and anil kapoor ( producer ) and feroz abbad khan ( director ) do . the story start with gandhi work in south africa and his relationship with white people and his wife . latter akshay ( harilal ) join his father for become a barrister but his dream take overturn when his father ( gandhi ) push ( or motivate ) him to become freedom fighter . it showcase that gandhi believe more on practical study rather then formal education . harilal too try to walk on his father footstep but soon fail a it infatuation towards his wife and child and his own dream of become big success alter his path and then start the repulsion between son and father . he finally defeat his father in term of pursue his dream and to leave him on his own term . he write back to india but then start his unsuccessful story which become big and big with time . i be leave reader to see movie to catch further story . performance . first akshay . he have give best performance of his tenure so far and be absolutely convince in his portrayal a harilal gandhi . the scene in which he reach the room where his wife dead body be place be one where you can see a fine actor which be hidden or develop in akshay . darshan jariwala be also good a mk gandhi and able to live up such a large then life character . he perform well and with quite an ease . shefali chaya ( now shah ) a kasturba be brilliant actress and already prove her metal in tv serial . bhumika chawla too perform well but actress of her candidature be waste in these kind of role . other actor have also justifies their performance . technique and make up be also good and cinematography especially that duo tone color picturisation be too good . costume look and match with context . overall and a worth see movie which be defiantly slow in progress and impatient people may find it bore but give you an insight of area which be not bring to silver screen till date . also and the way story progress and connection of scene may look worn to some people and to critic especially but for an average movie watcher like me and it still enough to make me occupy on my seat till end .
