'Bhavai' not about interpretation of Ram or Ravan: Pratik Gandhi on change in film's title

India TV News  

While the title of his upcoming film "Ravan Leela " has been changed to simply "Bhavai" to respect the sentiments of a section of viewers, actor Pratik Gandhi on Tuesday said the rechristening is "not the answer to the broader question". Set against the backdrop of Bhavai, a popular folk theatre form from Gujarat, the movie marks the "Scam 1992 - The Harshad Mehta Story" star's first Hindi feature film as a lead. "Bhavai" is a film about two people who work in a Ram Leela and how it affects their personal life. Gandhi has previously acted in Hindi movies "Loveyatri" and "Mitron", and Gujarati films like "Bey Yaar" and "Wrong Side Raju", which won the National Award for best feature film in Gujarati.
