'Munnabhai': Bhuvan Bam and 'Mostly Sane' Prajakta Koli join team for promotional video

As the cast of Lage Raho Munnabhai — Sanjay Dutt, Vidya Balan, Arshad Warsi, Boman Irani and Dilip Prabhavalkar — is reuniting to bring out a special video on Gandhigiri, which will be out on social media on Gandhi Jayanti, we have learnt that YouTube sensations Bhuvan Bam of BB Ki Vines and Prajakta Koli aka Mostly Sane have joined them.

The cast members will read out their scenes, relive memories of filming, talk about the significance of Mahatma Gandhi’s 150th birth anniversary, and the importance of continuing the theme of Gandhigiri and non-violence. Bhuvan, meanwhile, will read out the scenes of Jimmy Sheirgill’s character Victor, while Prajakta will play the girl about to wed.

A source says that the content creators were roped in to connect with the youth and spread the message of Gandhiji among them. Says Bhuvan, “Being part of this project is beyond overwhelming.  I was in school when this movie was released. Never did I think that years later I’ll get to be a part of it.” Prajakta adds, “When I saw Lage Raho Munna Bhai, I was 15 years old. One of my favourite memories with the franchise is that my nanu (grandfather) and I used to watch both the movies back-to-back during summer vacations. It’s a movement, let it happen.”
