With an amazing walk towards his office, we see how Manmohan Singh tries to settle down in his initial days. Meeting his better half Sanjaya Baru (here Akshaye Khanna), who serves him as the media advisor, Dr. Singh gets into the terms of his position. Going through incidents of death of P. V. Narasimha Rao (here Ajit Satbhai) and finalising the Nuclear deal with the US, the movie carries forward with a decent pace.
With very abrupt cinematography, Sanjaya Baru’s character breaks the 4th wall time and again to say what he feels (HoC much?). There’s one stop motion sequence in the start which gets on your nerves. The movie, for sure, isn’t boring but at times gets complex for a layman.
The film is based on a similarly titled the book by Sanjaya Baru, the former media advisor of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
The trailer raked up talk about the film’s portrayal of a political party and has raised questions on whether the filmmaker has a political agenda.
