Directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Ananth Mahadevan, the film stars Pratik Gandhi as Mahatma Jyotirao Phule and Patralekhaa as his wife, Savitribai Phule. The movie brings to life the inspiring journey of this iconic couple, who played a pivotal role in advocating for equality and education in India.

Speaking about the biopic, Mahadevan shared, “This is our humble tribute to a great son and daughter of India. The film is a must-watch for the Y-generation, as it offers more than what history books have touched upon. It’s an immersive journey back in time, showcasing how these visionaries shaped our nation’s history.”

The director added, “We have stuck to the historical facts while making this film, but it is not just a historical narrative. The film is a call to recognise the sacrifices and values that continue to shape our society.”

Alongside Jyotirao Phule, she laid the very foundation for modern education and social equality in India. On her birth anniversary today, it’s only fitting that we announce the release of Phule. I’m thrilled that audiences will soon witness their inspiring journey on the big screen, and hopefully, be moved by their extraordinary courage and vision.”
