Prakash Jha to turn his film Satyagraha into a book

Satyagraha

MUMBAI: Not limiting his next venture Satyagraha just to film, Prakash Jha is mulling with the idea to turn it into a book too.

He, along with his co-writer Anjum Rajabali, is working on the script again, to modify it into a book. The film that has been written very critically includes many underlying facts which might not be known to the masses. So the director has decided to compile the script into a full-fledged book.

However, the original script written by Anjum Rajabali was heavily modified by Jha to make it appropriate for the film. According to the co-writer the script was modified numerous times to make it apt for the film.

In the book, the writers would include required details from the original as well as the modified film script.
Jointly produced by UTV Motion Pictures and Prakash Jha Productions, Satyagraha examines the current socio-political system in India. It stars Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Arjun Rampal, Manoj Bajpai and Amrita Rao.

The film is slated to release on 15 August this year.
