Randeep Hooda in Savarkar biopic; First look out
On the occasion of Savarkar Jayanti, the first look of Randeep Hooda-starrer Swatantra Veer Savarkar got released. It is the official biopic of politician and activist Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Mahesh Manjrekar is directing the film and it is produced by Sandeep Singh, Anand Pandit and Sam Khan.
The makers initially had talks with Ayushmann Khuranna and Rajkummar Rao but eventually zeroed in on Randeep Hooda. The actor took to his Instagram handle to share the first look. He also wrote,
This is a salute to one of the tallest unsung heroes of India’s struggle for freedom and self-actualisation. I hope I can live up to the challenge of filling such big shoes of a true revolutionary and tell his real story which had been brushed under the carpet for so long.
