Director Omung Kumar’s upcoming PM Narendra Modi biopic has been one of the hottest topics of this year. The film which was originally slated to release on April 11 was issued a stay order right a day before its release. The Election Commission of India had stated due to the ongoing Lok Sabha Elections 2019, this would affect the moral code of conduct and hence it should be released after the elections. And after a long wait, the release date is finally announced. The film starring Vivek Oberoi in the titular role would hit the screens on May 24, after the elections results get declared.

The makers of PM Narendra Modi biopic suffered from huge losses because of the stay at the last moment. Film’s producer Sandip Ssingh said, “As a responsible citizen we respect the law of the country. After a lot of discussions and keeping the curiosity and excitement about the film in mind we have decided to release the film immediately after the Lok Sabha Election results. We are now releasing our film on 24th May 2019. This is the first time a film will be promoted for only four days. I hope now nobody has any problem with the film and we are hoping for the smooth release this time.” PM Narendra Modi Biopic: Dialogues From Vivek Oberoi Starrer That Prompted EC To Seek Stay on Its Release.
