Well-known Bollywood star Raza Murad has appealed to the media not to promote bigotry in society.
He was speaking to media persons here at Press Club in a ‘Rubaroo’ programme on Monday evening.
The actor said vulgarity in cinema is at its extreme and had brought downfall of it.
The metro culture of way of life has changed the cinema completely. The young and budding stars lack command in language and literature and that was why there was degradation in the cinema, he said.
Commenting on the statement of former Vice President of India Hamid Ansari, Murad said he disagreed with his view.
"Cinema is a perfect example for that, if there was hatred in the name of communalism, Shahrukh, Salman and I would not have become stars", Murad said.
