"All the achievements as well as the controversies surrounding Parrikar will be shown in the movie," he said. "The film will more particularly focus on the life of Parrikar before he became the chief minister for the first time in 2000, the life that many of us are not aware of," Shetkar said.
According to him, work on the film had started nearly three years back, when Parrikar was the country's defence minister. "The biopic would be released on the occasion of birth anniversary of Parrikar on December 13 next year," he said. Parrikar served as the defence minister from 2014 to 2017 during the first term of the Narendra Modi government.
However, he returned to Goa in March 2017, after BJP failed to get majority in the state assembly elections. The saffron party then formed a coalition government headed by Parrikar with the support of regional parties.
