Original Title
Veer Hamirji – Somanath Ni Sakhate
Overview
With only a handful of his friends, Veer Hamir sets to defend the Temple of Somnath in Veraval, Gujarat against the powerful army of Sultan Mohamad Begado. An unlikely endeavor. This historical film, based on the doctoral thesis of Dipak Vyas, beautifully captures 15th century Gujarat, India: their people, religious beliefs, and politics.
