Hey Ram (transl. Oh! Ram) is a 2000 Indian epic historical drama film written, directed, and produced by Kamal Haasan, that stars him and Shah Rukh Khan (in his Tamil debut) in lead roles. It was simultaneously made in the Tamil and Hindi languages.
The film's soundtrack and score were composed by Ilaiyaraaja. It is an alternate history film that depicts India's Partition, Direct Action Day and the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi by Nathuram Godse. The Hindi version was distributed by Khan's Dreamz Unlimited.[3][4]
