Mumbai: Ajay Devgn, who starred in Prakash Jha's Raajneeti last year, has said that Jha's new film, Aarakshan, has no objectionable material.

The promos of upcoming film Rascals, starring Ajay, will be released along with Aarakshan.

There have been demands of a ban on Jha's film, for its alleged anti-reservation and anti-dalit stance.

"I think there is nothing objectionable in the film. When people will see it, they would realise that there is nothing controversial," Devgn said when asked if the prospects of Rascals would be affected as several theatres across the country may not screen Aarakshan.

Ajay has earlier worked with Jha in Gangaajal and Rajneeti.

Amitabh Bachchan, who is the lead actor of Aarakshan, launched the promo of Rascals today. Directed by David Dhawan, Rascals stars Devgn, Sanjay Dutt, Kangana Ranaut and Arjun Rampal.

When a question was posed to Dutt as to whether protest against Aarakshan would affect promotion of Rascals, he refused to reply, and asked producers Sanjay Ahluwalia and Vinay Choksi to answer instead.
