When Shah Rukh Khan returned to the big screen after 1,484 days, the hero he was up against for box-office glory was a real-life one: Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
Rajkumar Santoshi's film, Gandhi GodseEk Yudh, lost the battle for eyeballs, but it didn't have as hard a run with the censors at the Central Board of Film Certification as the producers of Khan's film, Yash Raj Films, did. What Santoshi did have a tough time with was finding producers to fund his political drama due to its controversial nature, as it pitted Gandhi against his assassin in a verbal duel. "They [producers] didn't want to touch it," says Santoshi. It did not help that he did not want to "take any stars" for his first film in nine years. "Gandhi himself is a big star, Godse is immensely popular," he says.

A BOILING-HOT FIGHT IN MILKIPUR
The upcoming byelection in the assembly constituency of Milkipur, in Ayodhya district, carries immense significance for both the BJP and the Samajwadi Party (SP). Scheduled for February 5, it's a battle that could help shape the initial narrative for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh assembly polls. The Scheduled Caste-reserved seat fell vacant after the 2024 general election, when its veteran SP MLA Awadhesh Prasad famously fought and won the Faizabad Lok Sabha seat-under which Milkipur falls, as does Ayodhya. Coming within months of the Ram temple inauguration, that loss had dealt a bitter blow to the BJP: it was tantamount to Hindutva being humbled in its symbolic homeland. Thoughts of redemption will therefore be uppermost in the party's mind.
