Vijay Ratnakar Gutte’s directorial debut The Accidental Prime Minister stars Anupam Kher as Manmohan Singh, India’s prime minister between 2004 and 2014, and his troubled relationship with Indian National Congress leader Sonia Gandhi. Based on Singh’s media advisor Sanjaya Baru’s 2014 memoir of the same name, the film suggests that Singh’s functioning was severely cramped by Sonia Gandhi’s interference and her attempts to make her son, Rahul Gandhi, the prime minister. The Accidental Prime Minister will be released on January 11, 2019.
