Asutosh continued, “Any police station will have girls taking skill development courses. Keeping my hopes and expectations in mind in a police station, I will not call them study chariots. Whenever I meet these children, I will call them, children engaged in spiritual practice because they are doing ‘sadhana’ in such a place which definitely works to cultivate the society somewhere”.

Ashutosh Rana also called for the adoption of the same initiative by other police stations and members of the society. “If our whole society starts doing, then we will be a bridge to the society and we will be there for the society as well.”

Ashutosh Rana will be next seen in the film ‘War 2.’ Directed by Ayan Mukerji, ‘War 2’ is scheduled to hit theatres on Independence Day 2025. Recently, Yash Raj Films introduced Hrithik’s character in a post-credit scene from the Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif starrer ‘Tiger 3,’ generating excitement among fans for the upcoming sequel.

The film is a sequel to the 2019 action thriller film ‘War’ which starred Hrithik Roshan, Tiger Shroff and Vani Kapoor in the lead roles. Directed by Siddarth Anand, this high-octane action drama minted Rs 200 crores within seven days of its release in 2019. It’s touted to be one of the highest-grossing Hindi films of that year. (ANI)
