The Accidental Prime Minister Trailer: Anupam Kher as Dr Manmohan Singh Will Make You Debate If He Was a PM or a Pawn - Watch Video
The Accidental Prime Minister is aiming to release now on January 11, 2019.
If they had stuck to the plans, then The Accidental Prime Minister would have released along with Shah Rukh Khan's Zero on December 21. Now that didn't happen and we are having the trailer for this biopic being launched on December 27. The Accidental Prime Minister is about Dr Manmohan Singh's tenure as the Prime Minister of India and has Anupam Kher step into his garb. The movie is based on the book by the same name, written by Singh's former media adviser Sanjay Baru.

Interestingly, it is Akshay Khanna who is playing the role of Baru in the film. The Accidental Prime Minister has been directed by Vijay Ratnakar Gutte, and also stars Aahana Kumra and Arjun Mathur who are playing Priyanka and Rahul Gandhi in the film, while Suzanne Bernert is playing Sonia Gandhi. The Accidental Prime Minister has been accused by some of the Congress factions as a deliberate attempt to malign the party image, since the leading man has close affiliations to the BJP party.

Well, these accusations will grow stronger in the days to come as the trailer highlights how Singh becomes a pawn of the Gandhi family politics, and a silent 'victim' who gets the blame for all the malpractices that happened during the regime. As for Anupam Kher, the fact he is mimicking the former PM rather than make the character his own feels very distracting. Especially, since Akshaye Khanna is going great guns as the adviser. However, look-wide they have done a really good job on all the actors. Anupam Kher's The Accidental Prime Minister Director Arrested For GST Fraud; Will This Affect The Movie?
