Sunil Bohra acquires rights of Sanjay Baru’s book on Manmohan Singh
If the reports are to be believed then producer Sunil Bohra has acquired the film rights of Manmohan Singh's former media adviser, Sanjaya Baru’s book titled ‘The Accidental Prime Minister: The Making and Unmaking of Manmohan Singh in 2014’. The book was published around the general elections last year.
Bohra confirmed the news to Economic Times and quoted, “My sole intention is to make a movie covering the 10 most crucial years (from 2004 to 2014), which changed the political spectrum of our country and fortunes of India's oldest political party - the Congress. My movie will be denuded of any political agenda and bereft of any political leanings. It will be a true reflection of what has been authored by Mr. Baru in his book.”
He added further, “The chapters 1 to 13 are the strongest defence of the Prime Minister. I challenge a book which seeks to offer a stronger defence. This book is a defence of his prime ministership ... Somebody had to stand up and defend this old man.”
And while he has acquired the rights to the book, the director and the cast of the movie is yet to be declared.
Guess, we shall have to wait to see who bags the lead role!
