Nagpur-based director Anurag Bhusari, who has made a film on Union Minister Nitin Gadkari titled "Gadkari", says the movie is not a propaganda and merely chronicles facts.

The trailer of the movie was recently released on YouTube and Anurag says the film takes a balanced stand on the life of the Minister.

"Lately, there have been a number of biopics (on politicians) where people said they were like propaganda. But what I can assure the audience is that I have only shown the facts," Anurag told PTI.

"I have not tried to show 'Look how Nitin Gadkari is a good person' but I have shown his struggles. I have shown the facts and everything which has happened with him," he added.

"We have covered his life, growing up years up until 2014, until he became a Union Minister, we have covered everything."
"If I had taken a single producer, there would have been a political influence or I would have been asked to make changes in the script. So crowd funding was difficult, but the right process."
"He might have been aware about the film but I never had a word with him."
