Actor Anupam Kher, who plays former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in The Accidental Prime Minister, has said the makers of the film have no political agenda behind its release. Anupam spoke at the Bombay Stock Exchange along with the presenter of the film Jayantilal Gada here on Friday. The Accidental Prime Minister, directed by Vijay Ratnakar Gutte and based on an eponymous book by Sanjaya Baru, is the first release of the year 2019.

Asked if the general audience will be able to connect with the film, Anupam said: "There is excitement among people that I am playing role of a former Prime Minister of India, but at the end of the day, it's a film which speaks, so the audience will decide whether this film will work or not at the box office."
