Who Is Savita Raj Hiremath: The film Jhund directed by Nagraj Manjule, starring Amitabh Bachchan, Rinku Rajguru amongst others, was released on March 4. The plot of the movie revolved around caste discrimination and the gated communities, privilege, slums, and football as a way out. According to the film's producer Savita Raj Hiremath, the film deserved to be made tax-free just like Kashmir Files.
She took to Facebook and wrote, "I recently watched the Kashmir Files and as the story of Kashmiri Pandits exodus it is heart-breaking and is a story that needed to be told. It is a good voice for Kashmiri Pandits..!!”
Having appreciated the film, she said, “But as the producer of JHUND I am perplexed. After all, Jhund is also an important film and has a story and a Big Message that has received tremendous acclaim and word of mouth from the audience.”
She strongly feels that Jhund also has a subject that is so crucial to our country’s growth…Jhund is not just talking about the disparity between caste and economic disparity but also shows a way to make the lower strata of society find their success story. Jhund has collected over Rs 15 crore in the 15 days of release
