In Art
The film Hey Ram, made in 2000, also briefly touches upon events related to the assassination. The Marathi language play Me Nathuram Godse Boltoy (Marathi: मी नथुराम गोडसे बोलतोय) ("This is Nathuram Godse Speaking") was also made, but only from Godse's point of view.
Three books based on Nathuram Godse's life were banned by the Indian government:
- Why I assassinated Mahatma Gandhi, published by Surya Bharti, Delhi, India, 2003. ISBN 1-375-09979-6
- May it Please your Honor!, published by Surya Bharti, India, 2003
- Gandhi Vadh aur Main (Gandhi Hatya Aani Me), by Gopal Godse, 1989.
The actor Horst Buchholz portrayed Nathuram Godse in the film Nine Hours to Rama (1963).

Famous quotes containing the word art:
“We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth, at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies.”
—Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)
“We do not fear censorship for we have no wish to offend with improprieties or obscenities, but we do demand, as a right, the liberty to show the dark side of wrong, that we may illuminate the bright side of virtue—the same liberty that is conceded to the art of the written word, that art to which we owe the Bible and the works of Shakespeare.”
—D.W. (David Wark)
