I`ll not use `sympathy card`: `Policegiri` producer

Mumbai: Rahul Aggarwal, producer of Sanjay Dutt-starrer ‘Policegiri’, asserts he is against `frivolous publicity` and will not use `sympathy card` to promote his movie.

Sanjay is currently serving his three-and-a-half year jail sentence in the 1993 Mumbai blasts case in the Yerawada Central Jail in Pune. He surrendered May 16. "That`s one card, which I don`t want to play because people should not be feeling that I am playing the sympathy card. What is happening is unfortunate. Nevertheless, the film has to be released. But I am not going to be doing any frivolous publicity," Rahul told reporters Tuesday at the first look launch of the film here. "I am going to take the film`s publicity in a very sober and respectful manner," he added. Talking about Sanjay, he said: "I don`t think we should use the word sympathy, we should use the word affection for Mr. Dutt. I think that`s the more appropriate word to use." Directed by K.S. Ravikumar, the action packed cop drama also stars Prachi Desai in the lead and is coming out July 5. IANS
