A film on the life of PM Narendra Modi was announced on Monday. The yet untitled film will be directed by Omung Kumar, who has earlier directed biopics like Mary Kom and Sarabjit.  

The film will be produced by Suresh Oberoi and Sandip Singh. Vivek Oberoi is set to play the role of PM Narendra Modi. 

However, soon after the first look of the film was shared on social media, Twitter users gave funny reactions to the poster. Some said, the man in the poster neither resembles Modi nor the actor, some doubted if it’s a spoof.

While speaking at the launch of the film’s poster, Vivek Oberoi said, “I am extremely fortunate. Today, I am feeling like I felt 16 years ago, during Company days. I am feeling the same kind of excitement and hunger because this is a role of a lifetime for any actor. I truly believe at the end of the journey, I pray I become better actor and a better human being.  

Narendra Bhai is one of the tallest leaders in the world and to bring his personal qualities on screen is an incredible challenge and I want all your blessings that we can complete this incredible journey, the actor said.” 

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh unveiled the first look of the film on Twitter. 

The first shooting schedule of the film will begin in mid-January. The team has worked on the script for two years. The biopic is going to be shot in Gujarat, Delhi, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh.
