After the screening, the Twitter handle of President of India tweeted, “#PresidentKovind watched the film Chalo Jeete Hain at a special screening at the Rashtrapati Bhavan Cultural Centre.

Chalo Jeete Hain is the story of young Naru who is inspired by Swami Vivekananda’s words, “Wahi jeete hain jo doosron ke liye jeete hain” (only those live who live for others). These words inspire Naru to adopt the philosophy at a very early stage in life.

The social drama is a 32-minute film and it is directed by Mangesh Hadawale. Mangesh’s debut Marathi film Tingya (2008) managed to win 57 national and international awards.
