Prime Minister Narendra Modi celebrates his 69th birthday today. On this special day, Akshay Kumar has unveiled the poster of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s next production venture titled Mann Bairagi. The film is based on PM Narendra Modi’s life.
Akshay Kumar posted on Instagram, “Happy to present the first look of Sanjay Leela Bhansali & Mahaveer Jain’s special feature, #MannBairagi on the defining moment of our PM’s life on his birthday! #HappyBirthdayPMModi @narendramodi @bhansaliproductions.”
While the exact release date of the film is yet to be announced, the poster says that the movie will hit the screens in Winter this year. While Sanjay Leela Bhansali has produced the film with Mahaveer Jain, the movie is directed by SSanjay Tripaathy.
Well, this is not the first film based on the life of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Earlier this year, we saw the film PM Narendra Modi which starred Vivek Oberoi in the lead role. Even a web series on the life of PM Modi was released a few months ago which starred Ashish Sharma. While the web series received a good response, the movie was panned by critics and was a flop at the box office.
Now let’s wait and watch what response Mann Bairagi will get.
So, as now Sanjay Leela Bhansali has announced his next production venture, we are sure the filmmaker’s fans would love to know about his next directorial. He was supposed to direct Inshallah with Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt, but the former opted out of the film. Last we heard was that Sanjay Leela Bhansali is planning to make Inshallah by replacing Salman Khan with Hrithik Roshan. However, an official announcement is yet to be made.
