Bollywood actress Kirron Kher on Saturday extended support to her husband Anupam Kher, who's upcoming movie The Accidental Prime Minister, has stirred controversy. Speaking to ANI, she said, "It's a path-breaking film. People who speak of freedom of speech like Rahul Gandhi must now practice it too. Anupam told me people that people will fall in love with Manmohan Singh ji after watching the movie".

Congratulating the makers of the film, Kirron also said that the movie should be India's official entry to the Oscars. "There are many films that are made on prime ministers and politicians. For this movie, only congress party leaders stated objections and nobody else. We are in mature democracy and everyone should be allowed to show the truth. This is high time that movies should be made on reality", she added.
