The spiritual film “Krishnavataram Part 1: The Heart (Hridayam)” has received a major honour after the Uttar Pradesh government declared it tax-free in the state.

“Krishnavataram Part 1: The Heart (Hridayam)” explores an emotional and spiritual chapter from the life of Lord Krishna.

Through this path filled with emotions, sacrifices and divine purpose, the film presents timeless lessons about love, duty and human relationships. The narrative blends mythology with emotional storytelling, making it relatable for audiences across generations.
The makers have attempted to create a cinematic experience that not only celebrates faith but also highlights the emotional side of Krishna’s life. The film focuses on inner conflict, devotion and the wisdom Krishna shared during his journey, giving viewers a deeper understanding of his spiritual philosophy.
The project has been directed by Hardik Gajjar and produced by Sajan Raj Kurup, Shobha Sant, Poonam Shroff and Parth Gajjar. Together, the team has created a visually rich film that combines grand storytelling with spiritual depth.
The cast includes Siddharth Gupta as Krishna, Sushmitha Bhat as Radha, Sanskruti Jayana as Satyabhama and Nivaashiyni Krishnan as Rukmini. Their performances bring emotional intensity and authenticity to the story, helping the audience connect with the characters on a personal level.
Expressing their gratitude over the decision, the makers said they were deeply honoured by the Uttar Pradesh government’s move to declare the film tax-free. They described the recognition from Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath as inspiring and humbling. According to the team, the film was created with the intention of presenting Lord Krishna’s spiritual journey and timeless teachings to modern audiences. They also thanked viewers and supporters for embracing the vision behind the film.
With tax-free status now granted in Uttar Pradesh, “Krishnavataram Part 1: The Heart (Hridayam)” is expected to reach a much wider audience, including families, students and those interested in India’s spiritual heritage. The move also reflects the state government’s support for films that celebrate Indian culture and values through meaningful storytelling.
