Hindi Movie Rajneeti made under Walkwater Media, directed and produced by Prakash Jha along with Ronnie Screwvala (co-producer) is released on 4th June 2010.

Rajneeti is about Indian politics. The movie revolves around seven characters. The movie gives the message that the people are responsible for a good or bad leader and for all the situations in the country.

The movie stars Ajay Devagan, Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Manoj Bajpai, Ranbhir Kapoor, Naseeruddin Shah and Arjun Rampal, Music directed by Pritam, Adesh Srivastay, Wayne Sharp and Shantanu Moitra.

Manoj Bajpayee, who is the son of a venerable politician feels sidelined after power shifts from his father, who suffers a paralytic stroke to his uncle. Bajpayee is not able to reconcile with the fact that he has been left behind in the shadows, whereas his cousins Arjun Rampal and Ranbir Kapoor grow in stature and influence.

To change the political equation, he reaches out to Ajay Devagan in order to neutralize his political opponents. However, the entry of Ranbir Kumar as Samar Pratap Singh, who comes on a vacation from New York changes the ballgame altogether. Ranbir guided by the veteran Nana Patekar has an ace up his sleeve for every political trick used by his opponents.

Rajneeti as a film speaks about the political system of India, how it operates, and how the dynasties perpetuate their political power. Rajneeti also depicts the saga of violence, betrayal, crime and use of money to secure power and pelf for oneself.

Ranbir Kapoor has delivered a powerful powerful performance as he learns the tricks of political trade faster than his rivals, much to their surprise and discomfiture. He has a lot of people including elder brother Arjun Rampal, his political mentor Nana Patekar and his childhood buddy Katrina Kaif to support him, but in a quintessential God Father style he plans and executes almost singlehandedly!
