 A special screening of ‘Piku’ was held for President Pranab Mukherjee at Rashtrapati Bhavan, in New Delhi.

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan and director Shoojit Sircar were clicked during the screening.

Amitabh Bachchan wrote in his blog: “The Honourable President of India Shri Pranab Mukherji, tonight watched ‘PIKU’ and may I say with great reserve of modesty, he absolutely loved it ! Most particular he seemed to have enjoyed the ‘perfect’ Bengali-Hindi accent, which he felt was flawless. He later invited us over for dinner and we continued to discuss the film and its merits ..”



He added: “Screening over the President welcomes us on stage and presents us with a gift that forms the mementoes he presents and then invites us over for dinner, in one of the many ornate halls that this Palace possesses !! It is an honour that cannot be replicated. Thank you Honorable President of India for your time and grace !!!”


‘Piku’ has turned out to be a winner at the box office, raking in about Rs. 80 crores.
