Sachin Khedekar in 'Bose the Forgotten Hero'

Sahara had initially wanted a television series on the INA and Netaji?
Yes. Benegal had numerous meetings with Sahara Chairman Subrata Roy, but in vain. After a while, they decided in favour of a feature film.

How was it shooting in Kolkata?
Absolutely great. I met some of Netaji's descendants and got in touch with the Netaji Research Bureau. We were greatly helped by the information provided by the Bureau.

Opinions are divided about Bose's marital status?
Benegal has done extensive research, which points towards the fact that Bose was married to Austrian Emilie Schenkl and had a daughter Anita Piaff, who lives in Germany.
