Mahapurusha Description:

Mahaan wants to be about the corruption of Gandhian ideals in a modern India that lacks a conviction to uphold them, as seen through the life of its protagonist ‘Gandhi’ Mahaan from 1968 to 2016. Brought up by his strict Gandhian father and later married to Nachi who is also driven by Gandhian ideals, Mahaan is stifled in being the simple commerce teacher, who is both respected and also mocked at for his upbringing and his nickname.
