First look of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Mann Bairagi launched 

The first look of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s upcoming production, Mann Bairagi, was released today. The film is a special feature based on an untold story from the life of Prime Minister Narendra Modi which has not been in the public domain so far.

The first look poster was digitally presented by Akshay Kumar and Prabhas to mark Modi’s 69th birthday. The film is produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Mahaveer Jain, and written and directed by Ssanjay Tripaathy.

“What interested me in the story was it’s universal appeal and message. The story was very well researched and the turning point of our PM’s life as a young man. It really intrigued me. I felt that it’s a story that is unheard of and needs to be told,” Ssanjay said. 

Director Ssanjay Tripaathy is certain the film will touch a chord with audiences. “For me, it's a human interest story about the self-discovery of a person who went on to become such a strong leader of our country,” he said. 

Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Mahaveer Jain recently collaborated on Malaal. The film marked the Bollywood debuts of Meezaan Jaaferi and Sharmin Segal.
