Sachin Khedekar in 'Bose the Forgotten Hero' |
It's a dream role for him and he well knows it. He is excited and nervous. Meet Sachin Khedekar who plays Subhash Chandra Bose in Shyam Benegal's latest film 'Bose: The Forgotten Hero'.
Excerpts from an interview by Vickey Lalwani:
Do you know what has been the catalyst for this film?
Yes. Benegal is peeved that Netaji is one political hero who has disappeared from public memory. As a filmmaker, he thought it was his moral obligation to rekindle people's thoughts about him. It was high time the achievements of Netaji were filmed.
What kind of homework went into it?
It took Benegal a year-and-a-half to do the groundwork. Exhaustive research, elaborate reading and numerous drafts later, the film was shot in places as varied as Ladakh, Uzbekistan, Germany, Myanmar and Malaysia (pauses). |
