Ajay Devgn & Om Raut Working On New Film On Unsung Warriors
According to the report, Ajay Devgn has been keen on building a film franchise dedicated to forgotten warriors of Indian history. Although the project was delayed due to other commitments, recent meetings at Devgn’s office hint that the sequel is back on track.
Initially, the duo considered making a film on Maratha general Baji Prabhu Deshpande, known for his bravery during the Battle of Pavan Khind. However, since the Marathi movie Pawankhind already explored this story in 2022, the filmmakers are now rethinking their approach.
The team is still in the early stages of planning but hasn’t ruled out the idea of focusing on Baji Prabhu. At the same time, they are exploring other Maratha heroes whose stories can be brought to the big screen.
Hrithik Roshan Being Considers For The Antagonist
One of the most exciting updates is Ajay Devgn’s interest in casting Hrithik Roshan as the main antagonist. This would mark the first time the two actors share screen space, creating a buzz among fans.
Devgn reportedly believes Hrithik’s charm and acting skills would make him a perfect rival. The pairing of these two stars as adversaries is expected to be one of the film’s USPs.
Sharad Kelkar, who played Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in Tanhaji, is likely to reprise his role in the sequel. His powerful performance in the original received widespread acclaim, and his inclusion is expected to add depth to the upcoming film.
