Chandigarh, March 19 

Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi, who hasn’t been on the screen for quite some time will return to play the role of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and veteran actor Manoj Joshi is essaying Amit Shah's character.

The release of the biography has been preponed by a week. ‘PM Narendra Modi’ was earlier scheduled to hit the theatres on April 12. But, now the film is scheduled to release on April 5. Along with this the makers also released the second poster of the film. 

"5th April 2019, PM Narendra Modi," Vivek wrote on Instagram.

In the poster, Vivek and some children are following the tricolour theme. The actor is seen dressed like Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a white kurta-pyjama. He is surrounded by children who are dressed in saffron and green ethnic attire.

"PM Narendra Modi" will showcase the journey of Modi from his humble beginning to his years as the Gujarat Chief Minister, to the landmark win in the 2014 general elections, and finally becoming the PM.

Sharing how Vivek has transformed himself into the role of Modi, Pandit said in a statement: "I observed Vivek very carefully during the shoot. He would be quiet on sets most of the time and the minute Omung would say, 'action'; it was as if Vivek would transform in front of the camera into this larger than life persona of the Prime Minister."

The first poster of the film was unveiled by Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis in 23 languages in January.

The biopic is being helmed by National Award-winner Omung Kumar B, and produced by Ssingh, Anand Pandit and Suresh Oberoi.
