On his three-kilometre journey to the cinema hall where the film is running house full, Kumar waived to crowds gathered on both sides of the road.
JD(U) MLA Gyaneshwar Prasad (Gyanu) and BJP MLC Sanjay Jha followed him on another rickshaw to the cinema hall.
"I had heard a lot about the movie that has won eight Oscar awards depicting the life of the common man... I decided to take the mode of transport of common people to watch the movie... I wanted to relate with them," Kumar said when asked about his selection of rickshaw to travel to the cinema hall.
"During my student's days I used to ride rickshaws to reach cinema halls. Today's rickshaw ride has revived the old memories of my college days," he told reporters.
