Maharaj netflix real story
The Netflix film “Maharaj” is based on the true story of the Maharaj Libel Case of 1862, a significant legal battle in colonial India. The film tells the story of Karsandas Mulji, a journalist and social reformer who exposed the alleged sexual misconduct of a religious leader, Jadunathji Brijratanji Maharaj, through his writings.
Karsandas Mulji published an article in 1861 that accused the Maharaj of engaging in immoral behavior with female devotees, which led to a libel lawsuit filed by the Maharaj. This case drew immense public interest and was one of the most sensational trials of its time. The trial, held in Bombay, saw numerous witnesses testify, including women who claimed to have been exploited by the Maharaj. Ultimately, the court ruled in favor of Mulji, establishing a landmark victory for press freedom and social reform in India
