The Sabarmati Report: Vikrant Massey, Ridhi Dogra and Raashii Khanna will play journalists in the movie inspired by "true events" that occurred on the fateful morning of February 27 at the Godhra Junction, 125 km away from Ahmedabad, where a train carrying kar sevaks from Ayodhya were burnt to death. As the film gears up for its theatrical debut on November 15, many on social media have pointed out Vikrant's "hypocrisy" during the film promotions by bringing up his old remarks.The Sabarmati Report poster | Image: IMDb Vikrant Massey's old 'liberal' comments go viral before The Sabarmati Report releaseIn conversation with Shubhankar Mishra on his show Unplugged, Vikrant said "I was a big critic of BJP .
