Synopsis

New Delhi Times is 1986 Hindi-language political thriller film directed by Ramesh Sharma and written by Gulzar, starring Shashi Kapoor, Sharmila Tagore, Om Puri and Kulbhushan Kharbanda in lead roles. The film is about a newspaper editor who exposes the politics-media corruption nexus. The political drama film with a controversial storyline about political corruption and media, ran into trouble when film distributors and television refused to run the film, though later it went on to win three National Film Awards. It remains one of few Bollywood films to tackle the issue of corruption in media, joining Kundan Shah's Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro (1983), Main Azaad Hoon (1989) and Rann (2010)
