The makers of Ab Dilli Dur Nahin, a new Hindi film, have shared the official posters of the film. The film film explores the dynamic of success and failure in life through the story of its protagonist, a simple and naïve village boy from Bihar, who eventually goes on to top the IAS exam. What’s interesting is that the film is inspired from the life of Govind Jaiswal, the son of rikshaw puller who became an IAS officer.

Govind Jaiswal cleared the UPSC Exam in 2006, securing an impressive all-India rank of 48. The son of a rickshaw puller from Bihar, Jaiswal came from a very humble background. His ascension to an IAS officer at the age of 22 became national news at the time. While the film is not his biopic, it takes inspiration from his life.

The film stars Imran Zahid, who has headlined several plays and worked Bollywood films. The film is directed by Kamal Chandra. Zahid, who also hails from Bihar, said he met Jaiswal to prepare for the role. “It was enlightening as well as hugely inspiring to meet Jaiswal. He shared some nuggets from his life that gave me a better perspective of his character and willpower,” he said.
