The nine looks of Vivek Oberoi as Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the upcoming biopic is out. These looks depict the various phases of Modi’s life. The film, which will trace the journey of Narendra Modi from a common man to becoming the Prime Minister of India, will hit theatres on 12 April.
“Vivek Oberoi shoots for seven-eight hours for the film. Because of prosthetics, the actor can only consume liquids throughout the day”, said a source.
Producer Sandip Ssingh added, “I wanted a versatile actor to play this role, Vivek made an unconventional debut with Company and also gave Saathiya in the same year. I wanted the actor to give me one year of his life before the shoot began. Vivek gave 15 look tests that needed 7-8 hours of make up each day.”
Produced by Suresh Oberoi, Anand Pandit, and Acharya Manish, the film is directed by Omung Kumar.
