Film director Anand Kumar is all set make a film on the incidents of sealing in Delhi last year.
The film titled 'Jugaad' (temporary settlement) is a story about a successful ad-man based in Delhi whose city-based office is sealed during the drive.
"The film is about the struggles of the films protagonist, played by Manoj Bajpai , to resettle his life and his work. It is a humorous take on the ad-filmmaker's life post-sealings. How he tries possible 'jugaad' to get his life back on the track," says Anand Kumar.
The film is set in the backdrop of the drive to seal commercial establishments in the residential areas by the Delhi Government, which evoked huge protest by those affected.
"The film, however, is no political satire. Rather it is a fun-filled journey of the hero, who one fine day finds himself on the road and how he fights back," says Kumar, adding, "the film is a fresh comedy and has the spirit of Chak De India ".
