Actors who can play Modi onscreen

Narendra Modi has earned his way to be the Prime Minister of India. And Bollywood too is banking on the powerful man. Reportedly, Rupesh Paul is all set to make a film inspired by the life of Narendra Modi and the director is planning to cast Victor Banerjee in the role of the politician. According to a report in Hindustan Times, Rupesh Paul felt that the presence of Victor Banerjee and his international profile will help the film penetrate the foreign market. Another filmmaker, Madhur Bhandarkar too is reportedly planning to make a film on Narendra Modi. The filmmaker is known to make movies out of realistic subjects, and it would be interesting to see who would play the Prime Minister onscreen.
On the other hand, we bring to you a potential list of Bollywood biggies who can play Narendra Modi on the silver screen.

Paresh Rawal will win a lot of brownie points if he was to play the character of Narendra Modi in movies. Paresh Rawal has become an active politician from Gujarat as he won a seat in the recent elections. The funny actor was contesting elections from Gujarat on a BJP ticket. With Paresh Rawal on board, he wouldn't have to work on the Gujrati persona and accent. With a little bit of beard and a pair of specs, Paresh Rawal could well be the politician of Hindi cinema. Paresh Rawal is also known to be close to Narendra Modi and maybe that could help the actor prep for the job.

Amitabh Bachchan has played several politically charged characters in the recent past. From portraying a powerful man in Sarkar to a social activist in Satyagraha. Amitabh Bachchan is a favourite for such characters. Moreover the actor is also closely associated with Narendra Modi, as Big B promoted Gujarat tourism. Seems like Big B would just be the right choice to play the powerful man on the silver screen.

Kulbhhushan Kharbanda has very strong features. The veteran actor can pass off well as Narendra Modi. Kulbhhushan Kharbanda has done several Bollywood films, leaving a good impact on the audiences. Considering his onscreen age, and a white beard, Kulbhhushan Kharbanda can settle down as the Prime Minister, onscreen. The actor would do justice to the role.

Anil Kapoor is a hot favourite as far as authoritative characters are being played on the silver screen. Anil Kapoor has portrayed the powerful role of a competent politician in Nayak. Being a versatile actor, Anil would suit well to the mannerisms of Narendra Modi. While Nayak was a hit with the audiences, Anil Kapoor would do well as Narendra Modi in the cinema halls.

Shatrughan Sinha is a politician himself. The actor won the elections recently through a BJP ticket in Patna. Shatrughan Sinha has been an actor, and now doing a successful run as a politician too. With a combined set of experience, Shatrughan could well be a contender to portray Narendra Modi in the movies. Shatrughan Sinha could convincingly play Modi's role with the best knowledge of both the worlds.

Kamal Haasan has a list of impressive performances to his credit. The actor has done some strong roles in his films like Hindustani and Hey Ram. Thanks to his past records, Kamal Haasan would definitely make an impressive mark as Narendra Modi. The actor has a lot of fan following and audiences would definitely love to see the man play a full fledged politician.

Anupam Kher is a staunch supporter of Narendra Modi. The actor's wife, Kirron Kher won the Lok Sabha elections on a BJP ticket. Anupam Kher had posted on a social networking site, "Jai Ho to his (Narendra Modi's) dynamism & patriotism. I am sure our country will flourish now." For his love and admiration for the man, Anupam Kher might as well play the politician on the big screen. In the past, Anupam Kher has played powerful characters and can carry off a Narendra Modi act on the silver screen too.
