Bhopal, March 3
Hindi film “Shatak: Sangh Ke 100 Varsh (2026)”, which documents the 100-year journey of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), has been declared entertainment tax-free in Madhya Pradesh by the state’s BJP government.
The government on Monday declared the film tax-free for promoting the tradition of national service and values, which the RSS has kept alive for decades, Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said.
“The Hindi film ‘Shatak’ has been made tax-free across Madhya Pradesh. This film powerfully presents that tradition of national service and values, which the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh has kept alive for decades,” Yadav said in a post on ‘X’.
The film conveys the message that the construction of a strong and self-reliant India is possible only through organised thought, character, and a spirit of service, he maintained.
The movie chronicles the history of the RSS, beginning with the childhood of its founder, K B Hedgewar, in Nagpur, his involvement with the Anushilan Samiti, and the organisation’s formation in 1925.
It highlights events like the liberation of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and the 1948 Kashmir crisis.
The historical film, directed by Aashish Mall and produced by Vir Kapur, was released in theatres on February 19.
