Anupam Kher mesmerises as Manmohan Singh in The Accidental Prime Minister trailer
Mumbai, Dec 27 (IBNS): The trailer of The Accidental Prime Minister, a biopic on former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, released on Thursday.
In the trailer, veteran actor Anupam Kher, who portrays Singh onscreen, mesmerises with his acting skill.
The trailer hints that the film delves deeply into how Singh became the Prime Minister of the country back in 2004 and gets caught in between the Congress party and government.
Akshaye Khanna, who plays the character of Singh's media advisor Sanjaya Baru, seems to narrate the story in the film.
German actor Suzanne Bernert plays the role of then Congress president Sonia Gandhi.
Arjun Mathur will be seen as present Congress chief Rahul Gandhi, who was earlier Sonia's deputy in the party.
Sonia's daughter Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has been played by Aahana Kumra.
From nuclear deal to scams which had unnerved the Congress government, The Accidental Prime Minister touches all of them.
Vijay Ratnakar Gutte directorial film, which is based on book with the same title by Baru, is slated to release on Jan 11, 2019.
Singh, an economist and politician, became the Prime Minister in 2004 and remained in the post till 2014. He ran the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government for 10 years.
