'' War and Peace '' ( '' Jang Aur Aman '' ) is a 2002 Indian documentary film directed by Anand Patwardhan . The film covers the Indian and Pakistani nuclear weapons tests in 1998 , as well as the nationalist rhetoric that accompanied these tests . It also explores the ill-effects of the Indian test on the surrounding population and the reactions to the test among the government and the public . The latter part of the film also covers the perception of nuclear weapons in Japan and the United States . Upon the film 's completion , the Indian censor board demanded that Patwardhan make 21 cuts before it could be released , including cutting all speeches by politicians . Patwardhan refused and took the matter to court ; the Bombay high court ruled in his favor a year later , and the film was released without any cuts
