People from these villages thanked him for making their villages famous and invited him for a visit to their native places. Later, Aamir came to know that there were more than 1000 villages known by the name “Peepli”! Aamir’s forthcoming film is titled ‘Peepli Live’.
Aamir, touched by the loveable gesture of the villagers, has asked his office to keep the letters. He was surprised to find that all the letters had the same address of posting. His movie is set in in Peepli Bhadwai village in Madhya Pradesh.
‘Peepli Live’, produced by Aamir Khan, is a satire on the farmer suicides and the subsequent government response. The movie, directed by Anusha Rizvi, stars Omkar DasManikpuri, Raghubir Yadav, and Nawasuddin Siddiqui. The film is all set for a release this week.
