The film, titled 'Tanaji' - The Unsung Warrior, unravels the courage and bravado of the principle character, wherein the audience will witness Devgn stepping into the shoes of the celebrated 17th century Maratha warrior from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's troop. There have been several exciting updates related to the film, the latest being a confirmation, that the film will be produced by Bhushan Kumar of T-Series.

While most history aficionados and students might be well versed with Malusare's important role in the 'Battle of Sinhagad' of 1670, there are several other aspects from the brave leader's life that may have gone unnoticed. The film aims to bring to life the story of a warrior, who fought for his people and soil, with immense courage.



Tanaji - The Unsung Warrior will be helmed by film maker Om Raut, who had earlier directed the Subodh Bhave starrer 'Lokmanya - Ek Yugpurush' (2015). This would Raut's second biopic, after his debut directorial venture, based on the life of great leader Bal Gangadhar Tilak. There have been reports that suggest how Kajol might star opposite Devgn as Malusare's wife, or that Saif Ali Khan might be seen as the antagonist. However, there has been no official confirmation on this front.

Currently, Devgn is filming for Akiv Ali's next and Inder Kumar's Total Dhamaal. The cast and crew are scheduled to start shooting for 'Tanaji' in September 2018. The film is expected to hit the screens in 2019.
