Hansal Mehta's web series 'Gandhi' was screened at the Toronto International Film Festival. The show, produced by Applause Entertainment, stars Pratik Gandhi as Mahatma Gandhi. It received a standing ovation, which is rare at TIFF. Pratik Gandhi called it a 'lifetime experience' and his biggest project yet. The series is the first Indian-made show on Gandhi to be shown at TIFF. Only the first two episodes were screened. Pratik's wife Bhamini plays Kasturba Gandhi, marking their first on-screen collaboration. The series focuses on lesser-known aspects of Gandhi's life. To watch the full series, Indian viewers will need to wait for its release in India. (Updated 11 Sep 2025, 09:22 IST; source: link)
