All about Vinayak Damodar Savarkar
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar was born on May 28, 1883, in the Marathi Chitpavan Brahmin Hindu family of Damodar and Radhabai Savarkar in the village of Bhagur, near Nashik, Maharashtra.
He was a freedom fighter, an activist, and a writer, and he led the Hindu Mahasabha. Savarkar started participating in the freedom movement while still a high school student and later went to Fergusson College in Pune.
He was a member of groups like India House and the Free India Society while studying law in the UK. He is best known for coining the term Hindutva.
Like Bhagat Singh, Subhash Chandra Bose, Khudiram Bose, Madanlal Dhingra, and many others, Veer Savarkar also served as an inspiration who fought against the Britishers. However, according to producer Sandeep Singh, Savarkar was misunderstood by many people throughout history. He said, as per ANI, the film will reveal the truth about him and his efforts.
