Director Shyam Bengal’s acclaimed ‘Bose - The Forgotten Hero’, which romped home a National
award (Nargis Dutt award) for the best film on National Integration this year, is now all set
for a re-release on Republic Day, January 26.
Confirming the news, director Shyam Benegal said, “Yes, I have just received the news and in
fact I am having a meeting with the people from Sahara One Motion Pictures (the producers) in
the next half an hour.”
The film, which stars actor Sachin Khedekar as Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, was earlier
released in May this year but was seen by a very few people because of if its limited release.
Adds Benegal, “I am delighted and glad that it is being released again and I am hopeful that
more people will see it this time.”
According to the director, not too many prints were made available during its release in May,
resulting in the film finding a limited audience for itself. “The multiplexes were also not too
happy with film’s length of three-and-half hours as it was cutting down their business. If the
audience went for a night show, it would be morning by the time they came out,” points out
Benegal. Fortunately, a shorter, edited version will be released with more viewer-friendly
timings.
Sachin Khedekar was pleasantly surprised about the film’s re-release. He shot back, “Oh, on TV
you mean?” When informed about its theatrical re-release, he remarked, “I am very happy. I
still maintain that it is a film that needs to be seen by a larger audience. A lot of people
could not see it last time because of inconvenient timings of the shows.”
