New Delhi: Stepping into the world of entertainment with ‘Gandhi Godse Ek Yudh’, veteran filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi's daughter Tanisha Santoshi opted for an unconventional debut with the fictionalised recreation of historic events.

As her first ever film hit the theaters on January 26, an overwhelmed Tanisha penned an emotional note for her father expressing her gratitude.

Papa, I am forever grateful for you. You are my inspiration, my motivation, my God. And everything I do is for you and mumma. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your magnificent vision.”
“From sitting next to you by the monitor as a baby to you directing me! It's been the most emotionally enriching experience of my life. Thank you for bringing me into the world of movies, and helping me turn my dream into reality. You've given 41 years to Indian cinema. And I hope I can make even the slightest impression that you have.Thank you for teaching me the most important values of life to be humble, honest, hardworking and pure. Papa I hope to make you proud and work harder than ever with sincerity and honesty. Today is your day Papa, I love you and so does the world,” she added.
Playing a pivotal character in a film driven by historical names of Mahatma Gandhi and Nathuram Godse, Tanisha essayed a fictional role, earning not only the best wishes and blessings of the film fraternity but also appreciation and love in the early reviews.
