Also then Investing officer in crime branch Javed played by Rajat Kapoor ; also comes in suspects because of his religion. I meas they are Indians first , and why everytime religion has come.

On this Anubhav Sinha tells one word; “This is a big political game” . I mean there are several hindus who are unemployed ; and who bothers . These politicians know the key factor to attack on ones sentiments and choose religion.

They make us fight and divide in the name of religion just to get their votes; really insane. Its time for people to think on their love for their Mulk and not any Ram Mandir or Babri Masjid issue which is a big political game.

The Last word ; Anubhav Sinha tells ” Am very small man and request all Rishi Kapoor fans; Tapsee Pannu fans; Rajat Kapoor fans; Ashitosh Rana and ….. come and support the issue we are coming in Mulk. They are really outstanding ”
