The trailer of The Accidental Prime Minister directed by Vijay Ratnakar Gutte has just been released. The film stars Anupam Kher as ex-PM Manmohan Singh and Akshaye Khanna as Sanjaya Baru, who served as Singh’s media advisor and chief spokesperson between May 2004 and August 2008.
The film is based on the controversial book of the same name by Baru. The trailer offers a behind-the-scenes look at the UPA administration, especially the dynamic between Singh and Sonia Gandhi. In what appears to be a gripping drama, it highlights Dr.Singh’s alleged conflicts with his party and especially former Congress President Sonia Gandhi, who seems to be constantly pushing for her son, Rahul even as Singh grapples with one complicated political crisis after another. While Anupam Kher is striking as Dr.Manmohan Singh, Akshaye Khanna as Baru is an immediate show stealer. The movie is all set to release on January 11, 2019.
