New Delhi, (PTI) It’s a “good coincidence” that “Main Atal Hoon”, a biopic on former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, is set to hit the screens days before the Ram temple consecration ceremony, says director Ravi Jadhav.
The upcoming film, starring Pankaj Tripathi in the title role, offers an insight into the life of Vajpayee, including his role in the Ram Janmabhoomi movement, Pokhran nuclear test, and India-Pakistan ties.
Produced by Vinod Bhanushali, Sandeep Singh, and Kamlesh Bhanushali, “Main Atal Hoon” was previously set to be released on December 25, 2023, on Vajpayee’s 98th birth anniversary. It will now arrive in cinema halls on January 19, three days before the ceremony on January 22 in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh.
