While speaking to Mid-Day, Director Laxman Utekar talked about his decision to make this movie. He said, “When I started reading about Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, I realised that he was a great warrior, but no one has made a film on him.”
“Most books on Sambhaji are in Marathi, and not available in any other language. That could be a reason why a film or series on him has been rarely attempted. Not many filmmakers could read extensively about him,” he added.
Laxman and Vicky have worked together in Zara Hatke Zara Bachke. On the work front, Vicky will also be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s film ‘Love & War’, also starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.
