Ekla Chalo (Walk Alone/India)
(90 min; 2020; Marathi and English)
Writer & Director: Nachiket Patwardhan

Gandhiji’s 150th birth anniversary is celebrated through the coming of age of Kalyani Rao, a wannabe NRI who arrives in Pune India, to complete her doctoral thesis on ‘Gandhiji and Contemporary Pune’. Rabindranath Tagore’s famous poem ‘Ekla Chalo’ is seen by many as a tribute to the Mahatma and this song helps awaken Kalyani’s spiritual instinct. 

Ekla Chalo reveals a transition of the Mahatma to Bapu, through fiction as well as the nostalgia of romantic archival clips that can help convey his message of tolerance, peace and compassion to a new generation of Indians.
