Directed and written by Karan Rajdan, “Hindutva” delves into the intricate dynamics of childhood friends, one Hindu and the other Muslim, navigating religious and communal differences amidst college politics. The film portrays the complexities arising from these ideological clashes against the backdrop of contemporary events where Western culture disrespects Hinduism.
The narrative revolves around three central characters: Bharat Shastri (played by Ashish Sharma), Sapna Gupta (portrayed by Sonarika Bhadoria), and Sameer Siddiqui (enacted by Ankit Raj). While Bharat, well-versed in Vedic knowledge, exemplifies the beauty of Hinduism and believes in harmony among all religions, Sameer transforms into a leftist student leader, advocating divisive ideologies.
Karan Rajdan skillfully designs each scene, bringing out the essence of the characters, especially Bharat Shastri, who represents the positive aspects of Hinduism. The film raises awareness about the negative impact of radical ideologies on our Hindu culture and nation. It emphasizes the need to be vigilant against these threats, preserving our values and culture.
The film addresses crucial topics such as love jihad, Article 370, terrorism infiltrating student politics, and other issues affecting our society and Hindu community. It calls for a conscious effort to stay aware of such negative influences and protect our heritage.
