IANS, 25 Jan, 2018 01:00 PM
    With the Neeraj Pandey's political thriller, 'Aiyaary', edging closer to its release date, its lead actor, Manoj Bajpayee, has explained the meaning of the title.
     
    The 48-year-old told, "The meaning of the word 'Aiyaari' means imposter, who pretends to be someone else in order to deceive others, especially for fraudulent gain".
     
    "This is what our (Sidharth and Manoj) characters love to do in the film", he added.
     
    Talking about the positive response for its trailer, the actor said, "It feels good if your movie's trailer is being liked by people in the beginning as it indicates that people are getting curious to watch the film, which automatically helps us clear the first stage".
     
    The movie, which also stars Rakul Preet Singh, Pooja Chopra, Adil Hussain, Kumud Mishra, Naseeruddin Shah and Anupam Kher in the lead roles, is at set to hit the theatres on February 9.
