Ektaa Kapoor says Sabarmati Report will offer a balanced perspective

During the recent press conference of The Sabarmati Report, Ekta Kapoor talked about how the movie is aiming to shed light on the beginning phases of the incident, offering a balanced narrative.

In Short

• Ekta Kapoor emphasised balanced portrayal in The Sabarmati Report
• The Sabarmati Report is based on the Godhra train burning incident
• It features Vikrant Massey in the lead role

Producer Ekta Kapoor recently shared her thoughts on the approach behind her upcoming project, Sabarmati Report, emphasising the need for a balanced portrayal of the event’s origins and development.

Responding to a question about whether the show addresses all aspects of the incident, Kapoor said, “It (Sabarmati Report) aims to cover the genesis of the event – the pehla pahlu (first aspect) – without undermining the other pehloos (aspects). Unfortunately, this initial phase, how it all started, has not been reported enough.”

Kapoor added, “That’s why we have decided to tell you how it started, without undermining what happened later,” she explained. “It doesn’t mean that by telling one story, you undermine the other. You’re just showing people that it’s not only about one side; it’s about how it started. Very different.”

The Sabarmati Report promises to reveal the truth behind the incident on the Sabarmati Express, which occurred on the morning of February 27, 2002, near the Godhra railway station in Gujarat.

The Sabarmati Report, starring Vikrant Massey, Raashii Khanna, and Ridhi Dogra, will be released in theatres on November 15. It is produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa R Kapoor, Amul V Mohan and Anshul Mohan and is directed by Dheeraj Sarna.
