Taking a cue from Vivek Oberoi-starrer 'PM Narendra Modi' during the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, a film director on Thursday released the poster of 'Leader Ramaiah', a biopic on former Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah.

The film has action scenes as well as a love track, the film director said adding, the plan is to release the movie in five languages.
