Lage Raho Munnabhai

Synopsis		Credits, Cast & Crew

A gangster hallucinates that he can see Gandhi...

Munna, a lovable hoodlum pretends to be a Gandhi scholar in order to win the heart of a beautiful radio jockey – Jhanvi. But as he reads more and more about Gandhi to sustain his deception, he begins to hallucinate that he can see Gandhi.

In an age where Gandhi has been reduced to being nothing more than a statue in the park and a face on the currency bills, Munna’s comic and dramatic adventures remind people of the real essence of Gandhi. Lage Raho Munna Bhai is applauded worldwide as a comedy that has helped India rediscover the real Gandhi
