An Amir Khan Production is always a thing to watch for and this time also the perfectionist is back with a new and a very different story called Peepli Live.
The film is a satire on the farmers suicides and subsequent media and political response. The film tells the story of Natha a farmer in North India. Natha is about to lose his precious land due to an unpaid Government load. He finds the remedy in the very same Government programme that aids the families of indebted farmers who have committed suicide. As a survival option, Natha has to commit suicide. This becomes instant news and everyone from the political bigwigs, bureaucrats, media men; local henchmen descend upon the village to stake their claim. Will Natha really commit suicide or wont he is the questions to be answered in the theatres?
Omkar Das Manikpuri plays the role of Natha while Raghubir Yadav, Malaika Shenoy, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Shalini Vatsa, Farrukh Jaffer, Vishal Sharma and Naseeruddin Shah play prominent roles in the film. |
