Fauzi Film's Netaji Portrayal Sparks Outrage, Release Delayed
1 Nov
Summary
- Fauzi film sparks controversy for fictional portrayal of Netaji.
- Subodh Bhave shares positive experience working with Prabhas.
- Film release delayed to March 19, 2027, amid controversy.
Subodh Bhave is set to mark his Telugu debut in Hanu Raghavapudi's upcoming war action drama 'Fauzi,' portraying Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. Bhave shared his experience working with co-star Prabhas, describing him as warm and accommodating on set. They first met on the sets of 'Adipurush,' facilitated by director Om Raut.
The film 'Fauzi' has recently encountered controversy due to its teaser, which presented a fictionalized interaction between Netaji and Prabhas' character with Adolf Hitler in Berlin on May 29, 1942. Netaji's grandnephew, Chandra Kumar Bose, has condemned this portrayal as a "crime."
Despite the criticism, the production team has not yet issued a public apology. The film's release date has been postponed from its initial plan of December 3, 2026, to March 19, 2027.
