<p>Manjunath, the film, doesn’t gloss over facts. Even at risk of sacrificing on the aesthetic front, the director tries to bring out the harsh reality of the story that led to the killing of the 27-year-old IIM graduate</p>

The inspiring but terribly tragic story of Shanmugham Manjunath, who was shot dead in 2005, by the oil mafia in Bihar is now being replayed in theatres near you. Manjunath was eliminated as he had stumbled upon a huge adulterated diesel scam and no amount of bribing could have stopped him from exposing the mafia.
