The Sabarmati Report (2024) is a Hindi-language political drama directed by Dheeraj Sarna, featuring Vikrant Massey, Raashii Khanna, and Riddhi Dogra. The film is inspired by the tragic events of February 27, 2002, when the S6 coach of the Sabarmati Express was set ablaze near Godhra station in Gujarat, resulting in the deaths of 59 Hindu pilgrims returning from Ayodhya. This incident led to widespread communal riots across the state.
The narrative centers on Samar Kumar (Vikrant Massey), a Hindi-language entertainment journalist at EBT News. Initially assigned to assist the English-speaking anchor Manika Rajpurohit (Riddhi Dogra) in covering the Godhra incident, Samar becomes disillusioned when he discovers discrepancies in the official narrative. His attempts to present an alternative perspective are suppressed by the media establishment, leading to his dismissal and personal downfall.
