PM Modi biopic: After Javed Akhtar, Sameer too says he hasn’t written for film but poster has his name on it

It has been just two days that the film PM Narendra Modi trailer was released and the film is already mired in controversy. After Javed Akhtar, lyricist Sameer has also revealed that he has been falsely credited as a songwriter in the poster of the film.

Sameer told Mid Day that he had called Javed Akhtar after reading his tweet and told him that he too was not approached by the filmmaker to write any song for the film but his name was there on the poster of the film ‘PM Narendra Modi’. He also tweeted the same information and expressed his surprise and shock at seeing his name as the song writer in the poster of the film;

Sameer in fact got in touch with the music label T-Series but even they had no information regarding this. Even if any of Sameer’s old songs had been used in the film the music label should have been informed about it.

The film PM Narendra Modi has been directed by Omung Kumar and stars Vivek Oberoi as PM Modi. It is scheduled to be released on April 5.
