NEW DELHI, Aug 31:
Two poems by Union minister Kapil Sibal will feature in upcoming Hindi film “Dilli Gang” which is based on murders of senior citizens in Delhi.
The 65-year-old law minister will recite the poems in the beginning and at the end of director Ashish Tyagi’s debut film.
Sibal, who has brought out a collection of his poems in the book ‘My World Within’, said he was attracted to the film’s subject which highlights the problems faced by senior citizens.
“This is such an issue which needs to be discussed in our society. Our nation is under the blanket of violence and elderly people, women and children are the victims of it. Through ‘Dilli Gang’ we are bringing the safety of senior citizen in the limelight,” he said during the music launch of the film here.
The film stars Darshan Jariwala, Asrani, Neena Kulkarni Yashpal Sharma, Asif Bhasra and Amir Dalvi in prominent roles.
Sibal wanted to be a part of the film because he thinks movies are the strongest medium to spread a message.
“If somebody wants to express his feelings and responsibilities towards society then I think Bollywood is the strongest medium,” he said. (PTI)
