At the very end‚ with his beloved India reaping its own destruction‚ Gandhi considered himself a failure. But his place in history is secure‚ and it does not diminish his greatness to point out that in some respects‚ he had failed. He had spent his life working toward the achievement of independence for India without violence

GANDHI the movie is‚ above all‚ meant for entertainment. However‚ the movie is historically correct save for a few exceptions; but it is clear why Richard Attenborough (GANDHI’s director) has made these errors. Gandhi gets so upset at South Africa’s Apartheid laws over just one incident in a train. It is true that this event really happened but it is unclear why Gandhi got so angry and started his campaign in South Africa. A weak point of the GANDHI is its inability to elaborate on major episodes

The movie opens with a message with message from the filmmakers which explains their approach to the problem of filming the documented complexity of Mahatma Gandhi’s life. The message goes on

Mahatma Gandhi For me‚ a hero is someone who tries to make the world a better place. Christopher Paolini said‚ “Without fear there cannot be courage.” I agree there has to be fear before there is courage. Gandhi turned his fear into courage and decided to try to make the world a better place and as a result India gained its independence. It took conquering his fears and being a courageous hero in a peaceful way to be the leader of Indian nationalism during British rule. Gandhi fought for Indian

Gandhi and Untouchability Mahatma Gandhi was highly grieved about the caste system that characterised Indian society. But it was untouchability that particularly pained him.
