Vijay Sethupathi, Aditi Rao Hydari, and Arvind Swami's silent film Gandhi Talks is set to hit theaters on January 30, 2026, coinciding with MK Gandhi's death anniversary. The film's makers have released a new teaser, giving audiences a glimpse into the intriguing storyline.
The teaser showcases Vijay Sethupathi holding a sickle, while Aditi Rao Hydari is seen in a yellow suit, gazing outside. The film is a silent black comedy that explores the monetary needs of a character and its impact on those around him. It follows Mahadev, a young, unemployed graduate desperate to land a job, whose path crosses with a businessman and a petty thief.
Gandhi Talks features an ensemble cast, including Siddharth Jadhav, and boasts a musical score by Academy Award winning music director AR Rahman. The film was the first ever silent film to be screened at the International Film Festival of India in 2023. With no spoken words, Rahman's score is expected to serve as the narrator and emotional guide.
The film's release is highly anticipated, and fans can expect a thought provoking cinematic experience. Gandhi Talks brings out the dichotomy between the Gandhi on currency notes and Gandhi's ideals that everyone wishes to imbibe.
