NEW DELHI: Bans, protests and a long weekend may have affected the business of director Prakash Jha’s new offering “Aarakshan”, but despite all the problems, the movie about caste-based reservations in the Indian education system has managed to earn Rs.25 crore in four days. Trade analysts are hoping this will pick up in the second week. Released Friday is described as a well-crafted film on the need for education. The film was said to be made for Rs.42 crore. (IANS)
