Vinod Khanna goes anti-establishment!

Vinod Khanna plays a Naxalite Kobad Ghandy-like character in the movie “Red Alert – The War Within”.

Ananth Mahadevan, the movie’s director, says: "The film couldn't have been more timely. It reflects today’s headlines. Viewers might also find shades of Kobad Ghandy in one of the film's characters played by Vinod Khanna”

According to Mahadevan, Vinod Khanna’s ‘actor’s integrity’ is brought to the fore in his film.

Though in real life he belongs to the establishment, in reel life in “Red Alert – The War Within” he plays an anti-establishment, intellectual ideologue, left wing Maoist.

Khanna’s character mouths volatile dialogues like “The government is a terrorist…We do not resort to violence…We resort to counter-violence…This is a war….it doesn’t matter whether we win or lose…what matter is our being there”.
