Mumbai auto drivers call off strike, thanks to Prateik's Gandhigiri!

Actor Prateik Babbar, who makes his debut as a lead actor in 'My Friend Pinto,' played Munnabhai, who with his Gandhigiri requested the auto rickshaw drivers of Mumbai to call off their two day long strike.

Babbar, who plays the lead in 'My Friend Pinto' sat on driver's seat and drove an auto rickshaw around the Oshiwara vicinity, in Mumbai yesterday.

"It was a unique way to see the actor convince the auto wallahs to stop troubling the janta by getting on the drivers seat," says a source, who witnessed the incident.

Prateik seems to have learnt the art of indulging in activities to attract perfect publicity and this is surely going to help 'My Friend Pinto'.
