/> As things stand, after his real and reel-life tryst with Rajneeti is over, Parkash Jha will make a film based on his traumatic experiences as an electoral candidate.

It isn't clear who will play Bihar's CM. But the character will certainly not be a positive one.

Even as Prakash Jha's future as a parliamentarian would be decided two weeks from now director decided to take on his one-time friend the chief minister of Bihar full-on.

The police raid on Wednesday on his election base in his constituency in West Champaran in Bihar and the seizure of Rs 10.25 lakh rupees are according to Prakash, attempts to discredit him and his hard work among the people of Bihar just a day before Prakash was to face the ballots.

Says the filmmaker-turned-politician, "First of all, the police did not raid my election base in Champaran. They raided my sugar factory the Maurya Sugar Factory, not my electoral headquarters. And that money was the salary for the workers of my sugar mill."

Prakash sees the Bihar administration as obeying the high command in the endeavour to malign him. "I'd like to put it on record that I'm being harassed by the local administration.

A day before the elections in Champaran I wasn't allowed to move around freely on the road even on a two-wheeler. But I'm confident all these attempts to malign and obstruct me will only add votes to my name."

Prakash will soon sit down to write a film about the electoral experience. "It's great entertainment. And for me my cinema has always been a mirror of the wider reality. During Gangaajal I took on Sadhu Yadav when he alleged I had used real-life Bihar politics in the film.Now I've taken him on at the elections."
