Mann Ki Baat: Prime Minister Narendra Modi started hosting ‘Mann Ki Baat’, on October 3, 2014. Through this monthly radio programme, he interacted with citizens of India on themes and issues of national interest. As this iconic initiative completed a milestone 100 episodes recently in April, HistoryTV18 will premiere a special documentary, ‘Mann Ki Baat: Bharat Ki Baat’ tomorrow June 2 at 8pm.
The film documents the story of how Modi’s ‘Mann Ki Baat’ radio programme came into being in 2014, and why this simple idea was able to connect all corners of the country through a dialogue that has inspired change in the remotest parts of the country.
Living examples of self-reliance, positivity
The documentary looks back at a journey that has celebrated countless Indians who are living examples of self-reliance, positivity and people’s participation. How the refreshingly apolitical monthly radio programme grew into a platform for two-way communication with the country’s leading force. In the programme, the country’s Prime Minister, just like a family member or a village elder, voiced suggestions and concerns raised by the common people. He also celebrated the efforts of out-of-the-box-thinkers who strive to make their villages, cities, districts and neighborhoods better, cleaner and safer.
The film also brings forth citizens and stories that have inspired the Prime Minister. But what really stands out is the impact that this communication platform has had on the lives of Indians. Those living in inaccessible mountain villages to those in overcrowded cities, it has impacted them all.
Wide array of issues
‘Mann Ki Baat’ has addressed a wide array of issues, ranging from women empowerment and education for all to sustainable farming practices and environmental conservation. As shown in the film, it has led to an increase in domestic tourism. It has contributed significantly towards the popularization of yoga and healthy living.
And during the most severe waves of the Coronavirus pandemic, ‘Mann Ki Baat’ stood tall to minimize panic and disseminate authentic, true information, that saved countless lives.
This film celebrates a dialogue that is unique, straight from the heart of a nation’s leader, and that seeks inspiration and inspires at the same time.
