Chennai, Dec 18 (IANS) Anna Hazare, who is visiting Chennai Sunday, is likely to watch Tamil film “Mudhalvar Mahatma” — which will be his first film in over four decades.
The anti-corruption crusader last watched a film way back in 1970.
The film, directed by A. Balakrishnan of “Kamaraj” fame, deals with a plot in which Mahatma Gandhi is shown as the chief minister of a state in the present-day scenario.
The moment Hazare was told about the story, he reportedly agreed to watch the yet-to-be-released movie at Four Frames Auditorium.
