Arjun won't use foul language

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,July 20 2011]

Pick up most realistic Bollywood films of today's times and chances are high that they would have foul language forming an integral part of the narrative. While 'Omkara', 'Ishqiya', 'I Am' and lesser known 'Bhindi Baazaar Inc.' are the most glaring examples of them all, there have been quite a few other films belonging to this genre as well that haven't shied away from including language which is rustic.

However Arjun Rampal and his director Tigmanshu Dhulia, who rose to fame with 'Haasil' and also saw some good acclaim coming to him with his recent release 'Shagird', intend to break the trend with their next film 'Jai Ramji'.

My film is set in Eastern UP and talks about mafia, cops as well as politics but then you won't hear any foul words in 'Jai Ramji'. I don't understand the need for it. Why to have language take over the proceedings when you can as well live without it, reasons Tigmanshu, 'Haasil' dealt with college politics and had a realistic treatment to it. Still, it didn't even have words like 'kam%&%a or 'har$$mjaa&a' in it. Same is the case with 'Jai Ramji' as well. Arjun would be tough but won't use foul language.

In the times when 'DK Bose' is what comes naturally to even 8 year olds, a development like this for a toughie film like 'Jai Ramji' indeed comes as a pleasant surprise.
