New Delhi [India], Nov 16 (ANI): “God accepts prayers, I only accept cash.” Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi is all set to unravel discrepancies in the Indian education system as he unveiled the first teaser of his upcoming film ‘Cheat India’.
Taking to his Twitter, the ‘ Baadshaho’ actor lifted curtains on the teaser and wrote, “Students, parents, educationists, politicos, media and countrymen..the teaser of “Cheat India.”
Inspired by true events, the film features Emraan as a professor, Rakesh Singh, who believes in exchange of knowledge for money. The movie also has an interesting tagline – ‘Nakal Mein Hi Akal Hai’, which clearly points towards malpractices in the country’s financially lucrative education sector.
