Making of the Mahatma - a new take on Gandhi
This film by Shyam Benegal really introduces us to a different side of Gandhi - his personal relationships with his son and wife, including his forced abstinence on her, as well as his initial political developments in South Africa. We hear so little about how Gandhi became so close to Christians and Muslims alike, or how he used literature and text in his education, and this film really goes a long way in showing both. Kudos for teaching me more about India and South Asian diasporic history.

I couldn't agree with you more! This movie was truly eye-opening. As I stated in my review of it, we hardly ever get to see the young Gandhi truly transform into the Mahatma while living in S. Africa. Most of the films/documentaries follow his life in India.

Shyam Benegal touched on many aspects of Gandhi's life, as you mention. It is a film I highly recommend everything on Jaman to watch. You wont regret it!

I really want to see this movie, but it's unavailable in my country. Does anyone have a copy of the movie I can buy for a reasonable price? I live in India
