Governor Trailer Highlights

Governor claims to be based on true events surrounding India’s economic policy overhaul and the country’s shift toward privatisation, which paved the way for a free economy and a globally connected modern India. The trailer establishes Bajpayee as an economist who is fundamentally an outsider to the system he hopes to change. As the nation faces a major economic crisis with the possible risk of civil war and famine, the misfit protagonist devises an elaborate plan.
