Quick Glance: Controversial Biography of Swatantrya Veer Savarkar
  • The film portrays Savarkar as the neglected hero of history, projecting him as a Hindutva ideologue who aimed to advance Indian independence early.

  • Criticism is directed towards the portrayal of Gandhi as stubborn, superficial, and lenient towards the British, while Savarkar is depicted as visionary and extreme.

  • The biography focuses on bolstering Savarkar's image and emphasizing his legacy, while casting Gandhi and the Congress party in a negative light.

  • Viewed as high-value propaganda, the film links Savarkar's simplified Hindutva beliefs to current political issues.
