May 12, 2010 (Washington Bangla Radio) Rajniti is an upcoming Bollywood Hindi movie directed by Prakash Jha about a woman who takes on the challenges of entering politics with a genuine desire to do good for the people.

Raajneeti is a story about Indian politics. About Indian democracy. About Indian elections. Above all, it is a story of a few people who control the destiny of millions. It is the story of their unstoppable ambition, and their bitter and violent battle to achieve it. This is the story of people who understand power - and know how to wield it at will.
