Every youth, every child, all age people in India should watch this film as it motivates the depth of being a common man and it motivates every indiviual to be a good citizen and have a corruption-free country. This Republic Day, every Indian should be corruption-free from within first, and then work towards fighting corruption,' said Hazare.

'This was the best premiere I could ever imagine for my film, showcasing it to the right audience. I experienced the audience watching, laughing, smiling, crying along with my film. I was thrilled to see Anna's reactions watching my film. Two thousand villagers stood up and clapped and that was my reward,' he said.

Jafry says it was a 'proud' moment to have Hazare watch the film.

'I was sitting next to Anna and every gesture and expression was making me feel happy...when he was laughing, clapping...those were my best memories, and experiencing it live sitting along with him, it was a proud feeling,' he said.
