Says Gangji, “I am involved because I have also had a love marriage with a Shetty girl about 15 years ago. Her family didn’t agree initially because of caste and religion. I think every person should be given a fair chance. We are supporting this movie Aakrosh in public and national interest.”

Gangji has designed 12 (six each for Ajay and Bipasha) outfits consisting of simple Indian linen jackets, waistcoats and gowns. However, the stars won’t wear the clothes in any fashion show or for | promotional events. Adds Gangji, “We don’t want people to wear used clothes. We are targeting high society because we want to generate big amounts for our cause.”
