It has been 15 years since Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘Lage Raho Munna Bhai’, a film that marked the return of two very popular and impressionable celluloid characters, Munna and Circuit. Every sidekick ever since then has been compared to Arshad Warsi’s unique and unforgettable role that he nailed with absolute precision. There’s barely any other star who can be the embodiment of grit and goodness, both. Sanjay Dutt is your Munna Bhai and the other way round too.

But this isn’t a sequel, two characters are thrown in a new world in the same city - Mumbai. In the first one that came out in 2003, it was a medical college and a conflict with the dean, this time, it was about Mahatma Gandhi and reforming the crooked with his two weapons - truth and non-violence.
