"PM Narendra Modi" director Omung Kumar says he expected the biopic to be subjected to opposition, but the negativity around the film does not disturb him. The biopic on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, featuring Vivek Oberoi, is set to release on April 5, ahead of Lok Sabha polls. Several political parties have asked to delay the release of the film as it violates model code of conduct.
"I have blinkers. I don't look at what is happening or what people are saying. It is for producers to look into it. I don't let it bother me. When we took it on we knew it is a big film and people were going to talk about it, irrespective of whether we release the film during elections or not. "We knew people will oppose it in some way. So I am not shaken or disturbed. I am not bothered about the trolls, there are people who are liking it and some are not," Omung told PTI in an interview. The director said for him the film is an inspiring story.
