StoryIn 1948 after his death, Gandhi decides to not visit heaven. He comes back to India. He settles in Tamilnadu and starts spreading his visions and thoughts. Young Siddharth (Sundar) is attracted by his noble thoughts decides to associate himself with him. He propogates Gandhan values within the society and emerges the executive Minister of Tamilnadu.What Mahatma would venture to do to correct the problems which can be plaguing the society forms the rest.
PerformanceKanakaraj plays the role of Gandhi, while Anupam Kher dons the role of Chief Minister who strives hard to reach the visions and concepts of Mahatma. The nature seems more dramatic and so they have tried their best on screen.
TechnicalitiesBalakrishnan has done good research and has harped on a much-needed message. J Mohan camera is sweet while Ilayaraja’s background score fits the theme well.
AnalysisThe movie goes preachier at places and feels like a documentary. Sadly the film doesn’t live as much as all expectations.
