The film will also include the family's grief after the assassinations of Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi's difficulties, raising children and her political journey.
Jagga Reddy said that Sonia Gandhi created her own identity in a diverse country like India. According to him, Sonia Gandhi did not show any attraction towards the post of Prime Minister.
He said that after the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi and later during the formation of the UPA government, when the leaders expressed their desire to make him the Prime Minister, he did not accept the post and gave the opportunity to Manmohan Singh to become the Prime Minister.
According to Jagga Reddy, Sonia Gandhi's ideas also contributed to schemes like MNREGA. It is said that these aspects of his life and political journey will also get a place in the proposed film.
