Film on Sonia Gandhi gets clearance from court

Mumbai: Little known Mumbai based filmmakers have won a two year long battle against the censor board to release their movie based on life and times of UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi.

Directed by Jagmohan Mundra and produced by Sunanda Murli Manohar of CEE (I) TV UK, the film will begin with Sonia's renunciation of India's prime ministership.


It will then go back to her early days in Orbassano, her romance with Rajiv Gandhi, the Gandhi family's initial opposition to their marriage and her relationship with Indira Gandhi.


Since the film is based on an unauthorised biography of Gandhi, the producers have not approached her for approval.
"Right now it will be difficult to comment if the story will be completely based on the book as we may add some fiction to it. I just want to say the book is brilliant and we are ready to make a good film on it," Sunanda said.
