Director Prakash Jha plans to visit various educational institutes in eight cities across India. He, along with Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Arjun Rampal, Nana Patekar and others who feature in the cast of his film, Raajneeti, will interact with students. The director, along with his cast, launched the initiative in Delhi recently.
Says Jha, "We are conducting a nationwide poll and will choose eight cities that get the maximum response and visit their colleges. We plan to organise campus debates and have an open forum for healthy debates. The idea is to allow the youth to express their views on politics. For a long time, the word politics has been considered in bad light by the youth and we plan to change that. The youth have a responsibility to democracy and the idea is to hear their side and see what they have to say."
After the debates, there will be voting on the different issues discussed.
The results will be out a week before the film's release. After making the announcement in Delhi, Jha along with the film's cast went for a party to Rampal's nightspot in the nation's capital: LAP.
A source reveals, "It was an impulsive decision to go and party. Arjun was a gracious host and made everyone comfortable. However, Ranbir and Katrina seemed distant and kept their distance from each other."When asked about the party Jha adds, "I have been to Arjun's place before and we all had a rocking time."
