Lucknow’s cinematic scene just got a spiritual upgrade with the release of ‘Ghodan’, the first film entirely dedicated to the revered cow, or Gomata, hitting theaters on Friday. This groundbreaking movie weaves together India’s ancient cultural tapestry and Sanatan Dharma principles, presenting them through a modern scientific lens that resonates with today’s audiences.
Shantanu Shukla, the film’s promotion head, emphasized how ‘Ghodan’ serves as a bridge reconnecting people with their roots. ‘The film brilliantly illustrates the cow’s indispensable role in human life, backed by scientific evidence,’ he said. From nutrition to sustainable farming, it highlights practical benefits that go beyond mythology.
Aimed squarely at the youth, ‘Ghodan’ tackles the disconnect many feel from traditional values. By incorporating real-life stories, it delivers not just entertainment but a profound message: true fulfillment comes from embracing one’s heritage. The narrative builds emotional depth, showing how cows foster ecological balance and spiritual harmony.
Shukla pointed to Bollywood’s evolution, moving from formulaic family dramas to bold explorations of social issues and cultural revival. ‘Ghodan’ stands as a testament to this shift, urging young viewers to explore Sanatan values anew. Its release marks a pivotal moment for Indian cinema, blending devotion with data-driven insights.
The film has garnered widespread support from influential figures across states, underscoring its national appeal. Directors and producers hope it sparks conversations on conservation and cultural pride, positioning ‘Ghodan’ as more than a movie—it’s a movement.
