Nathuram Godse - in Art

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:

    The finest works of art are precious, among other reasons, because they make it possible for us to know, if only imperfectly and for a little while, what it actually feels like to think subtly and feel nobly.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    ... [photographs] trade simultaneously on the prestige of art and the magic of the real.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
