The trailer of the movie has struck chords with the audience owing to its hard-hitting storyline. Just like in Rang De Basanti the director had incorporated a song 'Luka Chuppi' beautifully showcasing mother-son relations, Rakeysh has come up with one more song which showcases a mother-son relationship spectacularly on the big screen.
Talking about the same, the director shares "I have been very lucky to have songs in my kitty and movies which are an ode to the mothers. 'Kanha Re Kanha Re' in Mere Pyare Prime Minister highlights the essence of the film which is about a mother-son relationship. While in Rang De Basanti we have Luka Chuppi picturized on Waheeda Rahman, this song in Mere Pyare talks about the child's aspirations in life. In my brief to Gulzaar Bhai who has given beautiful lyrics to this song was simple 'As if Yasoda Miyaa is singing to her Kanha / Krishna. The song cements their relationship beautifully takes it to next level. The song is high on emotions and I am sure every mother-child will be able to relate it."
The story revolves around four children living in a Mumbai slum, 8-year-old Kanhu living in a slum of Mumbai, writes a letter to the Prime Minister after an ugly incident happens with his mother. It highlights the relationship between a mother and son, and stars National Award-winning actress Anjali Patil in the role of the mother.
The film starring National award-winning actress Anjali Patil, Makarand Deshpande, Rasika Agashe, Sonia Albizuri and Nachiket Purnapatre brings together power-packed performances. The music of the film is given by Shankar Ehsan Loy and lyrics by Gulzar.
