"Much has changed in the last 13 years. When I made
Gangaajal 13 years ago, the dictum was that every society gets police that it deserves. But the scenario has changed since then. Today, the cops follow the dictum of 'inaction is virtue and efficiency is crime'," Mr Jha said in a statement.
Jai Gangaajal examines the relationship between society and the police.
Jai Gangaajal also features Manav Kaul, Rahul Bhat, Murli Sharma and Ninand Kamath, and is scheduled to release on March 4 2016.
