Vikrant Massey, after a heavenly performance in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s 12th Fail, is ready to take the plunge and delve into one of the most controversial, brutal, and unfortunate massacres in India’s history—the Godhra Kaand! His next film, The Sabarmati Report, unveils the ghosts of Godhra, and a powerful teaser already supports the strong backdrop of this film!

The teaser presents Vikrant along with Ridhi Dogra as two powerful journalists who witness the most brutal killings in the name of religion and make it a point to unveil and uncover the truth of whatever happened on The Sabarmati Express!

There comes a moment in every country’s belief system and political history that changes the course of the destiny of its country. While USA witnessed it with the tragic 9/11 incident, The Sabarmati Report calls the Godhra Kaand, the equivalent tragedy for India. While the teaser brings back all the horrific memories of 2002, it has a very very crucial responsibility!

Such films have a very thin line between turning into a scapegoat of propaganda and staying away from it. The teaser makes sure that it sits in the second category, but the course of the film would decide if it turns into The Kashmir Files or presents some hard-hitting facts without spreading the hatred that already sits on the fence in this country and can be instigated anytime with any possible event that involves the two communities that have always been at a warring end with no conclusion!
