Based on the shocking incident of 2002 when the Sabarmati Express train, leaving from Godhra station in Gujarat, thronged with pilgrims from Ayodhya, was set on fire by a mob. As per a PR release, the film narrates a story of events that took place in the Sabarmati Express on the morning of 27 February 2002, near the Godhra railway station in the Indian state of Gujarat. The video concludes with a text that again reads, “27th February 2002. Godhra, Gujarat.
The upcoming film ‘The Sabarmati Report’ is set to grace the big screens on May 3, 2024. Helmed by Ranjan Chandel, renowned for his work on the acclaimed web series ‘Grahan,’ the movie promises to be a gripping narrative inspired by true events.
The makers of the movie have announced the release date on X with the caption“Get ready to unfold the history with an untold story The Sabarmati Report a riveting journey into the 2002 incident that left an indelible mark on the entire nation! In cinemas on 3rd May, 2024.”

Along with Vikrant Massey, the film also stars Rashii Khanna and Ridhi Dogra. Meanwhile, Rashii is a powerhouse performer who was last seen in the web series Farzi. She made her Bollywood debut in 2013, playing John Abraham’s wife in Madras Cafe.
Godhra Incident was termed as the Godhra Kand, and the 2002 Gujarat riots followed the unfortunate incident. A powerful film on the same was Naseeruddin Shah and Sarika starrer Parzania. Sushant Singh Rajput‘s debut film Kai Po Che also dealt with the plot as a part of the narrative. Both films did not trigger any controversy, and hopefully, The Sabarmati Report also presents a balanced picture minus the propaganda.
