Movie Synopsis:
“Raajneeti” is a story about Indian politics. It is the story of their unstoppable ambition, and their bitter and violent battle to achieve it. It is the story of Bhasker Sanyal (Naseeruddin Shah), the fire-brand leftist leader, as feared for his single-handed ability to challenge the most powerful of leaders as he was respected for his political integrity. And of Sooraj (Ajay Devgan) who rose from the backward classes - with anger in his heart and leadership on his mind. Of Brij Gopal (Nana Patekar), who shunned every political ambition even as he continued to mentor and guide the younger generation of leaders while the battle got bloodier by the day. It is the story of Prithvi Pratap (Arjun Rampal), heir to a powerful political legacy and impatient to seize the top position. And of Veerendra Pratap (Manoj Bajpai), whose lunge at the throne was thwarted even as he was within striking distance of it. Of Indu Sakseria (Katrina Kaif), the princess – beautiful, passionate, arrogant. She had only one all-consuming love. Of Sarah Jean Collins (Sarah Thompson), who came from one of the bloodiest and most violent places on earth. And, it is the story of Samar Pratap (Ranbir Kapoor), the ultimate outsider, the apolitical conscientious objector, who got reluctantly sucked into the battle-ravaged arena of family rivalry only to turn into a master of the craft of political warfare.
