The trailer of the much-awaited political drama, The Accidental Prime Minister released recently and has received amazing response across social platforms. Based on Sanjaya Baru’s 2014 best-selling memoir by the same name, the trailer gives us a glimpse of what happened behind the curtains when Dr. Manmohan Singh was the prime minister of India.

An ex-journalist, political commentator and policy analyst, Sanjaya Baru worked as media strategist to the former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh from May 2004 onward and this role is essayed by Akshaye Khanna. On the other hand, Anupam Kher’s resemblance to Dr. Manmohan Singh is brilliant and has become the talking point.

The film gives us a glimpse of the inner view of the life inside the PMO and the interaction between the office and the ruling party.

The director also mentions that he respects Dr. Manmohan Singh and wants people to know about the good work he has done during his term.

The Accidental Prime Minister is eyeing for release on January 11, 2019.
