BJP leader attacks ‘Raees’

NEW DELHI: Crowds will turn out even if Dawood Ibrahim comes in public, BJP national general secretary Kailash Vijayvargiya on Tuesday said, targeting Shahrukh Khan over the death of a man during heavy rush at the actor's promotion of his film ' Raees' for which he travelled by train.

Vijayvargiya also took to twitter to praise Prime Minister Narendra Modi and hit out at Rahul Gandhi using the titles of two upcoming Bollywood films, saying our country's 'Kaabil' is better than the 'Raees' of other country, apparently referring to the Congress vice president's foreign roots.

“There is a new tradition of promoting films. The promoters should at least take care of public convenience.

If they promote films in railways, the common people will suffer. Even if Dawood appears in public, crowd will come out. So we cannot gauge the popularity (of people), at least, on the basis of crowd,” Vijayvargiya said.
