NEW DELHI, DEC 9: Addressing a press meet here on Friday evening, Kajol announced that her latest film Raju Chachawhich has been directed by her brother-in-law Anil Devgan is the first Hindi film to have its world premiere at the wellknown Academy Theatre of Arts and Science in Los Angeles later this month. Asked why the film was being premiered overseas and not in India, she said this would give the film greater international appeal.Her husband Ajay Devgan, who has produced the film and plays the lead, added that the producers of the film would arrange for some charity shows in India for children's organisations, since the film largely deals with children. Others who addressed the press meet included Kajol's mother veteran actress Tanuja and Member of Parliament Amar Singh, who is now an integral part of the entertainment world by linking up with Amitabh Bachchan Corporation Limited (ABCL) and even appearing for guest roles in some films. The film - which cost Rs 30 crore and has been touted as the most expensive film to be made so far - had gone over-budget, but Ajay said this happened in most films. He added that part of the expenditure was because of the special effects including the use of computer animation.Asked to say something about the theme and story of the film, Kajol said that the clips shown at the press meet amounted to the best speech that could have been made.
