On the same day actor Vikrant Massey announced his retirement from acting, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla are set to attend a special screening of his film, The Sabarmati Report. The screening is scheduled for 7 PM today at the Bal Yogi Auditorium within the Parliament House complex.

Significance of the Film

The Sabarmati Report, starring Vikrant Massey, is a poignant depiction of the events surrounding the 2002 Godhra train tragedy and its aftermath. The film has received widespread critical acclaim for its sensitive handling of a complex and historical subject.

A Notable Moment

The timing of the screening coincides with Massey’s surprising announcement earlier today that he will step away from acting in 2025.

The event is expected to be attended by several parliamentarians and marks a rare instance where a film screening is being held within the Parliament complex. The film's themes and Massey’s powerful performance have sparked important conversations, making this screening a significant cultural event for policymakers.
