Based on true story.

Must watch to know how brahmins stopped women and poor class education and how they stopped progress of india.

The presence of brahmins as key decision makers in India has adversely affected our progress on many fronts. Their deep-rooted social, cultural and religious mindset often persists inspite of contrary scientific, social or humanitarian logic. If India really wants to and needs to progress at a pace that is appropriate and necessary, then brahmins should be actively taken out of certain key spaces.

They would not want a situation where all young people have opportunities for employment, all children have opportunities to study in good and free public schools, all women have access to good quality nutrition and other benefits.

"SATYASHODHAK" delves into the profound impact of Mahatma Jyotirao Phule and his wife, Savitri Jyotiba Phule, shedding light on their tireless dedication to social reform.

Sandeep Kulkarni's portrayal of Mahatma Jyotirao Phule and Rajeshri Deshpande's compelling performance as Savitri adds depth to the narrative.

The film beautifully captures the pivotal role played by Savitri, emphasizing her influence on the couple's pursuit of equality and education for women along with other things. It serves as a powerful reminder of the often-overlooked contributions of women, echoing the sentiment that every successful man has a strong woman behind him.

Set against the backdrop of a society plagued by casteism and gender inequality, the movie poignantly portrays the challenges faced by the Phule couple. Their unwavering determination to challenge societal norms, especially in the realm of women's education and widow treatment, is both painful to witness and inspiring.

The stellar ensemble cast, including Jayshree Gaikwad, Ganesh Yadav, and others, elevates the storytelling, bringing authenticity to the historical narrative. "SATYASHODHAK" not only serves as a historical reflection but also encourages contemporary audiences to learn from the Phule couple's progressive ideals.

The film pays homage to the profound impact of Mahatma Jyotirao Phule, acknowledged by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar as his guru, emphasizing the enduring legacy of these visionary leaders.

"SATYASHODHAK" is a cinematic journey that prompts reflection on societal norms and the enduring importance of education and equality.

This movie does good justice by covering most of important events in the life of great Mahatma Phule and gives a strong social message which is required badly for the Indian society. In the era wherein movies have lost the real purpose of there existence rather than just entertainment this movies stands out. All the actors have performed there role very well. Great direction and story telling. Hats off to producer's and people associated with this film for making this film in an era where questioning religion or leaders is tagged as anti national. We should take inspiration from the life of Mahatma Phule and continue the work of social reform and equality.
