Mumbai, Sept 2: Bollywood director Prakash Jha has decided to support Anna Hazare's cause by making a movie based on him.
The movie which will be named “Satyagraha” will be based on the recent developments of peaceful protests spearheaded by 74-year-old activist Anna Hazare.
Jha has whole heartedly applauded the movement terming it unprecedented and remarkable.
This film will address the social issue of corruption. The movie will depict the protest against this social evil in exactly the same way and with the same values of peace and non violence, as Anna's recent protests.
Playing the lead role is none other than Amitabh Bacchan who will find himself in the shoes of the Gandhian activist leading the countrywide surge of support against the issue.
In the movie Bacchan will fight against the flaws in Indian political system and his character has a lot in common with real life anti corruption crusader Anna.
The rest of the cast as well as the final script will be decided upon later, said Jha.
