Reflecting on the film’s re-release, director Ayan Mukerji shared, “This movie feels like my second child, a part of my heart and soul. More than a decade later, I can confidently say that creating it was one of the greatest joys of my life.

Dr. Manmohan Singh passed away on December 26 at the age of 92 due to age-related medical conditions.
