In Art
The film Hey Ram, made in 2000, also briefly touches upon events related to the assassination. The Marathi language play Me Nathuram Godse Boltoy (Marathi: मी नथुराम गोडसे बोलतोय) ("This is Nathuram Godse Speaking") was also made, but only from Godse's point of view.
Three books based on Nathuram Godse's life were banned by the Indian government:
- Why I assassinated Mahatma Gandhi, published by Surya Bharti, Delhi, India, 2003. ISBN 1-375-09979-6
- May it Please your Honor!, published by Surya Bharti, India, 2003
- Gandhi Vadh aur Main (Gandhi Hatya Aani Me), by Gopal Godse, 1989.
The actor Horst Buchholz portrayed Nathuram Godse in the film Nine Hours to Rama (1963).

Famous quotes containing the word art:
“All art is a struggle to be, in a particular sort of way, virtuous.”
—Iris Murdoch (b. 1919)
“Adultery is the vice of equivocation.
It is not marriage but a mockery of it, a merging that mixes love and dread together like jackstraws. There is no understanding of contentment in adultery.... You belong to each other in what together you’ve made of a third identity that almost immediately cancels your own. There is a law in art that proves it. Two colors are proven complimentary only when forming that most desolate of all colors—neutral gray.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
