Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior chronicles the heroic story of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's subedaar Tanaji Malusare who sacrificed his life fighting valiantly against Mughal emperor Aurangzeb's army to save the Sinhagad fort. The Om Raut directorial stars Ajay Devgn in the titular role with Saif Ali Khan playing the antagonist Udaybhan Sinh Rathore, and Sharad Kelkar cast as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. The film has cruised past Rs 250 crores in India alone.
Recently, Kajol who starred in Tanhaji as the titular character's (played by Ajay) wife Savitribai, was asked about starting off 2020 with a bang and the film's success. To which she told a leading daily, "You can never be sure of any film. I think it’d be overconfidence on our part if we assumed that all the films we made with all our heart and soul will do well. Of course, we hope and pray that they do. Thank God, he answered our prayers!" Her character was much appreciated and she says that the fact that people stayed back till the end titles were rolling, has been the biggest compliment for her so far.
For the unversed, Ajay produced the film as well. When prodded how different is Ajay the husband from Ajay the co-star and producer, Kajol claimed, "I actually know all three versions of him, and I married all three of them. He’s not too different from how I imagined him to be. In fact, all three versions of him were created in front of me. We’ve been married for 20 years, which is a long time. When I married him, he wasn’t a producer then, at least not to this extent."
The film released on 10 January 2020.
