[size=medium]Samvidhaan: Shyam Benegal's TV series on Indian constitution
[/size]
Veteran filmmaker Shyam Benegal, who was behind famous the TV show Bharat Ek Khoj, is returning to small screen again with Samvidhaan, a 10-part mini-series revolving around the making of Indian Constitution. The 78-year-old director is currently working on the mini-series in Film City in Mumbai. The series will recreate the debates that took place before the drafting of the Constitution of India, between 1946 and 1949. "The Constituent Assembly of India sat for 2 years, 11 months and 17 days to debate on and draft the Constitution. By the time this mini-series is over, we would have taken a little less than that time to make Samvidhaan and tell the story of how our founding fathers and mothers fought against all odds to give a democratic shape to the destiny of India," Benegal said in a statement.
