The Elections Commission of India (ECI) on Thursday expressed its opinion that biopic on Prime Minister Modi starring Vivek Oberoi should not be released before 19th of May when the ongoing Lok Sabha elections conclude, sources in the Commission told the media. The biopic titled ‘PM Narendra Modi’ was originally slated for release on April 11, which would coincide with the commencement of the general elections. The Commission had said that delaying the release of the movie would be in the interest of fair and free elections.

The EC had on Monday submitted its report in a sealed cover to the Supreme Court over the biopic after which a bench headed by CJI Ranjan Gogoi posted the issue for hearing on Friday and directed that the report be served to the producers of the movie. The movie had garnered widespread protests by opposition parties who alleged that the biopic would disrupt the even playing field for the elections.
