Gandhi the man, Gandhi the legend - the politician who transformed the
soul of a nation. This is the Gandhi that millions of people know. Now
here's a disturbing account of how Gandhi conducted his life as a father
and husband. Mahatma v/s Gandhi presents a moving account of the turbulent
relationship between Mahatma Gandhi and his eldest son Harilal Gandhi. The
play is based on the Gujarati novel Prakashno Padcchayo, newspaper
articles and letters of the time and the biography of Harilal Gandhi.
The play is directed by Feroz Khan, with Boman Irani as Mahatma Gandhi,
Jayati Bhatia as Kasturba Gandhi and Feroz Khan as Harilal Gandhi.
