Here is the post:

Talking about his dream project – 'Freedom at Midnight', director Nikkhil Advani said, “The show has been a result of unwavering dedication and relentless determination, sparked by a simple conversation with Danish Khan about the iconic book. Our commitment to authenticity has been unwavering throughout this journey. This show is a profound tribute to the luminaries of our freedom movement—Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel—who courageously led the charge for independence."

He added, “So many of us know the major milestones of the sacrifices and struggles that let to the independence of India. What Dominique Lappiere and Larry Collin’s got was access to Dickie Mountbatten’s diaries and notes. To the man himself. And so in between all those major milestones we have some very personal accounts that make that time come alive and the moments sing with truth. We have tried to capture that. Danish Sir and Saugata’s only mantra has been 'authenticity' and we have followed it blindly.”
