'Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami' honours creator of India's iconic 'Common Man'
The cast launched the first song of the film, rebelliously titled ‘Tod De Kataar’, and went on to felicitate the statue of Laxman’s famous ‘Common Man along with some common citizens for their valuable contributions to society. The film, much like R. K. Laxman’s daily comic strip ‘You Said It’, is a political parody on the life of an honest common man at the mercy of a corrupt political system.
