Review: Culturally insensitive - No one calls Gandhi by the name Mohandas in India or elsewhere in the world. I do not agree with the picturisation of his family either. If you’re doing a book on a foreign personality, it is important to understand the cultural aspects of his origin, especially when you’re presenting it to children
