Every year on 2nd October we celebrate Gandhi Jayanti (Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary) to honor his great role in India’s independence. Everyone pays their tribute to Mahatma Gandhi on this day. Therefore, on Gandhiji’s 151st birth anniversary, veteran actress Neena Kulkarni paid her tribute to him with a throwback post from her play Mahatma Vs Gandhi. She shared this post on her Insta handle.
Actress Neena Kulkarni played the role of Kasturba Gandhi in this play. This play was directed by Feroz Khan in 1988. Actor Naseeruddin Shah played the role of Mahatma Gandhi and actor Kay Kay Menon played the role of Gandhiji’s eldest son Hiralal, in this play.
This post has a collage of pictures containing the poster, cast list, and a picture of Neena’s scene from the play. Neena said this she is fortunate to have played the role of Gandhiji’s wife in this play.
This play was a major hit at that time. It depicted the human side of Mahatma Gandhi by showing his relationship with his son Hiralal. This is one of the best tributes an actor could give to Mahatma Gandhi. As we can see from her caption, it was a lifetime achievement for actress Neena Kulkarni to be able to play such an important role. With this post, she has paid a nice tribute to the father of our Nation.
