MUMBAI: With the State assembly elections just around the corner in Bihar, Star News has prepared an hour long first-of-its-kind documentary titled Dharti Ka Laloo that captures the essence of popular politician Laloo Prasad Yadav.

The documentary, which will present a comprehensive chronicle of the life and times of this showman of Indian politics, will be aired on 30 January at 9 pm. The repeat telecast will be on 31 January at 11.30 am.

Bihar, which is considered to be India's most 'lawless State' has been governed by Yadav's Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) for the past 15 years and Yadav is known for his laugh-a-minute style and never fails to derive mileage from talking about his humble beginnings. However, he has also been accused of corruption by his opponents, which led to his resignation as chief minister of the state. In the murky waters of Bihar politics, he managed to install his wife Rabri Devi as chief minister, and is alleged to be remote-controlling the State.

Dharti ka Laloo gets up close and personal with Yadav himself, besides recording views and opinions from his aides, opponents, friends, family members and last but not the least the people of Bihar. Dharti ka Laloo will present the man everyone would love to know better and attempt to unravel the man behind the public 'funny' face.
