It was also a gesture to thank the people of Jaipur and all the officers, the bureaucracy, the medical fraternity, the police cadre, the armed forces, the media who support and promote the cause of organ donation in Rajasthan. As we all are aware the movie ‘Traffic’ is inspired by a real-life incident that occurred in Chennai in June 2008, the film stages a dramatic race against the clock undertaken by doctors and traffic policemen to save the life of a child. This movie has been appreciated by many as merging both the Bollywood thriller drama along with a humanitarian cause that is the cause of ‘Cadaver Organ Donation’. Actor Manoj Bajpayee, said in his statement “Some very good films have released this year, which were based on true stories. ‘Traffic’ is also one such story”.The charming actors, Salman Khan,Shah Rukh Khan and Rishi Kapoor too showed their support for the film.
