PTI | 01:07 AM,Jul 27,2011

Mumbai, Jul 26 (PTI) RPI leader Ramdas Athawale today said his party
would oppose Prakash Jha's upcoming flick 'Aarakshan' if its contents
are detrimental to the interest of Dalits."We will oppose the film
(Aarakshan) if its contents are against Dalits and try to paint the
upper-castes in good light," Athawale told reporters.'Aarakshan',
starring Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Saif Ali Khan in lead
roles is a high voltage socio-political drama based on one of the most
controversial policies of the caste-based reservations in government
jobs and educational institutions.The National Commission for
Scheduled Castes had recently dubbed Aarkashan, releasing August 12,
as "anti-Dalit".
