Hazare, star attraction

Anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare has become the latest Bollywood “star”. Actors like Aamir Khan, Anupam Kher, Diya Mirza and Rahul Bose have openly supported his agitation against delays over introducing the Lok Pal Bill. But the upsurge of public support has also presented a business opportunity, since it suggests that a movie on the activist could be a blockbuster. Accordingly, an informal search has begun for an actor to be cast for Hazare’s role.
