Borat is a 2006 comedy-drama which was directed by Larry Charles. The plot is based on a reporter from Kazakhstan called Borat Sagdiyev who is sent by his country’s Ministry of Information to make a documentary on America. He leaves his wife, Oksana behind and takes his producer Azamat Bagatov as his companion.
Arriving in New York Borat watches an episode of Baywatch and falls in love with Pamela Anderson. Just then he received a call from his town saying his wife died after being attacked by a bear. He thinks this is the perfect opportunity to make Pamela his wife. He travels across the country and encounters many difficulties, including a fight with Azamat to reach Pamela.

However, Borat meets an African-American prostitute, Leunell on the way. Later, he finally meets Pamela and tries to abduct her when security guards help her. Understanding that nothing is left for him here, Borat returns to Kazakhstan with Leunell and teaches his village all about the American culture. If this movie is remade in South India, here’s a list of actors perfect for it.
Borat Sagdiyev- Rana Daggubati
He is a journalist from Kazakhstan who travels to America to make a documentary on American culture. He is known for being antisemitism, sexism and antiziganism which is also shown to be the norm of the country he hails from.
