Although the character played by Amitabh Bachchan is apparently modeled on Hazare, Jha has consistently denied it. However, Anna’s team members believe otherwise.
“In fact, members of Anna’s team even went to the extent of saying that the group expects Prakashji to be present at the screening,” adds a source. Jha remained unavailable for comment.u00a0
