Mumbai, March 22 (Ians) Actor Rajniesh Duggal will play a Dalit fighter in the film "Bagawat". The film is based on the teachings of Dr. Br Ambedkar, who fought for equality.
"Bagawat" is a sequel to "Shudra", which was released in 2012 and was critically acclaimed. The film is written and directed by Sanjiv Jaiswal.
Talking about the film, Rajniesh, who has been part of films such as "Dangerous Ishq", "Saansein", and "Direct Ishq" amongst others, told Ians: "It's an extremely sensitive topic. The discrimination is widespread in our country, even though we chose to cast a blind eye. Dalits have been suppressed for generations and centuries. My character is a Dalit man who fights for the basic rights of his community. I can't tell you too much about the character. It's an important film."

A peon's son dreams of being an Ias officer, somewhere in heartland India. Twists in fate force him to cross paths with lawlessness. He ends up becoming a gangster.
Now when did you hear that story before? Three decades ago, most likely, when every other film was about the good guy ending up on the bad side of life owing to circumstances.
If "Pranaam" seems like a concept straight out of the eighties, the cast and crew have insisted that was the idea. Rajeev Khandelwal's latest release strives to deliver a dash of the retro punch, hawking a suitably loud package of larger-than-life melodrama and violence. The film is blatant in the way it picks every cliche that you thought had become obsolete a while back.
Heartland socio-politics, ridden with class and caste divide, has not altered much over the decades, you could argue, which still makes this film...
