On the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, the makers of the series Gandhi welcomed on board Grammy Award Winner, musical legend A.R. Rahman. Rahman, whose name is synonymous with musical brilliance, will bring his unparalleled craft to this sweeping saga of Indian Independence, elevating the series to new artistic heights. Directed by Hansal Mehta and based on Ramachandra Guha’s definitive writings, the series promises to weave together history, emotion, and sound in ways never before experienced on screen.
His compositions will not only support the visuals but also capture the essence of Gandhi’s teachings on truth, love, and non-violence, becoming a powerful part of the narrative.
Talking about the same, the music maestro said, “Watching Gandhiji’s younger life is a revelation—his experiments with truth, life, and so many other things show the evolution of his character. I am deeply honored to be scoring the music for this story, in collaboration with Applause Entertainment and under the articulate direction of Hansal Mehta.”
The director further stated, “Gandhi is a deeply human retelling of M K Gandhi’s life story, a story that continues to inspire generations. Having A.R. Rahman join us on this journey is truly a dream come true. His music has the unique ability to elevate storytelling and for a project of this scale and significance, we couldn’t think of anyone better to bring the emotional and spiritual nuances of Gandhi’s life to the forefront.”
