Manoj Bajpayee takes a trip down memory lane to 1996, visits India's first McDonald's ahead of 'Governor' release

Mumbai, June 5 (UNI) With "Governor" gearing up for its theatrical release, actor Manoj Bajpayee has taken a walk down memory lane by visiting the McDonald's outlet in Delhi's Vasant Vihar, widely recognised as one of the first outlets of the global fast-food chain to open in India during the post-liberalisation era.
It's being reported that the idea of visiting this historic site was Bajpayee's own. In the film, he plays the role of an RBI governor trying to steer the country through the challenging times of the 1991 economic crisis. Therefore, he expressed a desire to experience this important site, which has become a hallmark of post-liberalisation India, up close.
Inspired by true events and historical circumstances, "Governor" takes audiences back to the economic crisis of the early 1990s. The film depicts the financial crisis, political pressures, and decisions that changed the course of the country. Bajpayee will be seen in a powerful role as the Governor who leads the country through this crisis.
The film is directed by Chinmay Mandlekar and produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah. The lyrics are written by Javed Akhtar and composed by Amit Trivedi. "Governor" is set to hit the theaters on June 12. UNI NST CDS
