Unni Mukundan to Portray Narendra Modi in Biopic Maa Vande

To mark Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 75th birthday, Silver Cast Creations has announced Maa Vande, a multilingual biopic that will chronicle the leader’s life from his early years in Gujarat to his position as head of the nation. The film is written and directed by Telugu filmmaker Kranthi Kumar C.H. and produced by Veer Reddy M.

Carrying the tagline “The Anthem of a Mother”, the film’s narrative will revolve around Modi’s personal journey, placing particular emphasis on the bond he shared with his late mother, Heeraben Modi. Director Kranthi Kumar described the project as the culmination of a two-year effort and a personal dream. He credited political guidance and industry support in helping shape the vision and said the story’s emotional core lies in the mother-son relationship.

Casting and Creative Team

In the lead role is Unni Mukundan, one of Malayalam cinema’s rising stars, known for films such as Malikappuram, Marco and Meppadiyan. For him, taking on the part is both a responsibility and a personal journey. Having grown up in Ahmedabad, he first knew Modi as the state’s Chief Minister. Meeting him in person in 2023, he said, left a lasting impression.

Unni recalled being struck by two words Modi shared in Gujarati: “Jhookvanu Nahi”, meaning “Never Bow Down”. He explained that this phrase has since guided him in his own life and will be a touchstone in approaching the role.

The film has attracted a strong line-up of technicians. Cinematographer KK Senthil Kumar, known for RRR, will lens the project, while editor Sreekar Prasad brings his National Award-winning experience to the cutting room. Production design will be helmed by Sabu Cyril, the creative force behind Baahubali, with music composed by Ravi Basrur of KGF fame. The action choreography is in the hands of King Solomon, whose work includes Baahubali, RRR and Kalki 2898 AD.

Wider Context and Future Plans

Maa Vande is planned as a pan-India release, reaching audiences in Hindi, English and all major regional languages including Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Gujarati and Marathi. Details of the supporting cast and release schedule are yet to be revealed.

This is not the first attempt at a Modi biopic. In 2019, Vivek Oberoi starred in PM Narendra Modi, directed by Omung Kumar. However, the new film seeks to offer a more intimate exploration of the man behind the leader, with particular focus on his formative years and his mother’s influence.

For Unni Mukundan, the film arrives at a crucial moment in his career. Alongside this project, he is working with veteran director Joshiy on an upcoming action entertainer, and he has also announced his directorial debut for 2026, a superhero film.

With its combination of personal storytelling and grand cinematic scale, Maa Vande has already positioned itself as one of the most anticipated biopics in recent years.
