Prakash Jha, who is currently busy with the city promotions
of his next Jai Gangaajal, was lately in Chandigarh to promote his Priyanka
Chopra starrer and the filmmaker met over 150 female cops in the union
territory.
During his interaction with the female police officers, Jha disclosed,
''Jai Gangaajal is a story drawn from the experiences of several police
officers that I have met. I visited 52 police stations located in the interiors
of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh before I started work
on this film. I know how difficult it is for our female police officers to work
in those trying conditions. Most police stations don't even have proper toilet
facilities.''
The ace filmmaker stated that he made the movie on
society-police relationship as the subject is very close to his heart. In fact,
he roped in Neeraj Kumar, former Commissioner of Police, Delhi, as a consultant
as he didn't want to cite any incorrect laws and rules in the movie.
The trailer of the movie was screened for Chandigarh's brave
female cops and it received an overwhelming response from them, much to the
filmmaker's delight. Vega Tamotia and Rahul Bhatt, who are playing key roles in
the movie, were also present at the do. The female police officers even posed
for selfies with the film's team, post the event.
