Randeep Hooda Turns Director For Swatantrya Veer Sawarkar's Biopic; Shares A Powerful Teaser

Today, as India celebrates the birth anniversary of one of the most controversial and influential revolutionary leaders from our freedom fight against the British, Veer Savarkar, Randeep Hooda has dropped a new poster and teaser for Sawarkar's biopic, Swatantrya Veer Sawarkar. Check out the teaser below.

The teaser is intriguing and powerful. It does not fear from openly speaking out about Sawarkar's ideologies, which were against Gandhi's non-violence ideology. While most of us have heard stories of various leaders, activists, and freedom fighters from those times, Savarkar's ideologies and contributions have never been highlighted in Indian history books. The film promises to present his story like never before.

This historical biographical drama also marks the directorial debut of Randeep Hooda. He will also be seen playing the title role of Veer Savarkar on the big screen. Randeep said, "Savarkar led an incredible life, and as I learned more about him while researching for my film, I have come to admire him tremendously. So it gives me immense pleasure to share a sneak peek into our film on his 140th birthday."

Directed and co-written by Randeep Hooda with Utkarsh Naithani, Swatantrya Veer Savarkar is produced by Anand Pandit Motion Pictures and Randeep Hooda Films with Legend Studios and Avak Films. The principal shooting for the film is almost complete, and Savarkar is slated to release in cinemas this year. Stay tuned with us for the latest updates on its release date.
