Gail and Bharat: Somnath Waghmare's tale of love, resistance, and radical imagination

Dr Ruhi Khan, Professor Shakuntala Banaji and Professor Meena Dhanda reflect on Somnath Waghmare’s film Gail and Bharat, which ensures that Omvedt’s story, beautifully entwined with that of her activist husband Bharat Patankar, remains part of India’s collective memory.
