Voicing the popular opinion

Thinking actress

“I play an aspirational ad film-maker in Rann. My character believes that the system is bad and that it's a waste to go against the powerful people in the industry. It represents the thinking of the youth today. The youth wants to stay away from the workings of a country, and has become indifferent and apathetic towards the country - and is selfish. But Gul Panag is not so in real life,” Gul said.

“I am an evolved citizen. We need to realise that youth forms a major portion of our population and I feel we must have a fair representation of the youth in Parliament,” she added. The actress features alongside Riteish Deshmukh in the film, which is an attempt by film-maker Ram Gopal Varma to expose the conflict of business and conscience in the electronic media. The film also features Amitabh Bachchan and is releasing on January 29.
