'Phule,' starring Pratik Gandhi and Patralekhaa, was released in theaters on April 25. Here's what the Janta had to say about the film!

'Phule' is a biographical film directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Ananth Mahadevan. The film stars Pratik Gandhi as Mahatma Jyotirao Phule and Patralekhaa as his wife, Savitribai Phule, portraying the lives of these pioneering social reformers who championed education and equality in 19th-century India. The narrative delves into their relentless efforts to combat caste discrimination and gender inequality, including establishing India's first school for girls in Pune in 1848. Produced by Dancing Shiva Films, Kingsmen Productions, and Zee Studios, Phule was released in theaters on April 25, 2025.

'Phule' has the Janta divided in two minds. While many viewers appreciated the film’s powerful message, its historical significance, praised Pratik Gandhi’s heartfelt performance, there were also few who felt that the movie struggled with a seameless execution. Some found the storytelling honest and emotionally resonant, calling it an important and beautifully crafted film, while others criticized it for a lack of narrative flow, disjointed editing, and underwhelming performances by the lead actors. Overall, 'Phule' seems to have struck a chord with some viewers emotionally, even as others were left disappointed by its uneven treatment and pacing.
