Oscar and Grammy-winning composer AR Rahman has joined the team of the upcoming series Gandhi, directed by acclaimed filmmaker Hansal Mehta.
Rahman will lend his musical brilliance to the series, based on Ramachandra Guha’s writings, which explores Mahatma Gandhi’s life story.

Rahman expressed his excitement, saying, “Gandhiji’s younger life is a revelation. I’m honored to score music for this story, collaborating with Applause Entertainment and under Hansal Mehta’s direction.”
Applause Entertainment’s Managing Director, Sameer Nair, added, “Gandhi is a global narrative on the human spirit’s triumph. AR Rahman’s music will infuse a soul-stirring dimension, resonating with global audiences.”
