Filmmaker Hansal Mehta is in a tough spot as his new series Gandhi, starring Pratik Gandhi, is set to have its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in just 10 days. The problem? He and his team still haven’t received their Canada visas.
Hansal took to social media to ask for help. On X (formerly Twitter), he wrote, “Can anybody help with visas at the Canadian High Commission in Delhi? We’re 10 days away from our world premiere at TIFF2025 and no sign of our visas. It’s nearly 3 weeks since we sent our passports.”
The series Gandhi is special as it’s the first Indian series to be selected in TIFF’s Primetime section. Hansal earlier called it “an audacious dream” and shared that it’s a proud moment for Indian storytelling.
Pratik Gandhi plays Mahatma Gandhi, with Bhamini Oza as Kasturba Gandhi. The show is based on Ramachandra Guha’s books Gandhi Before India and Gandhi: The Years that Changed the World. Hansal and Pratik earlier worked together on Scam 1992, which was a huge hit.
The 50th edition of TIFF will be held from September 4 to 14, 2025.
