Ajay Devgn To Play A Freedom Fighter For His Next Film. Know The Deets Here

SS Rajamouli's RRR: Rise Revolt Roar is a period drama and Ram Charan and Jr NTR will be seen stepping into the shoes of real life freedom fighters Komaram Bheem and Alluri Sitarama Raju. It also stars Ajay Devgn and Alia Bhatt in important roles.

The film is scheduled to hit the screens on 8 January, 2021 but due to the coronavirus pandemic, shooting has been stalled and it is said that the makers are looking for the summer 2021 release date as the actors have already begun shooting.

Reports in Mumbai Mirror claim that Ajay Devgn will be seen as their guru in their years. The report quotes a source saying, “Ajay has shot for around 10 days at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad, where Delhi from the 1900s was recreated. He appears in the flashback scenes.”

My association with @SSRajamouli Sir dates back to 2012. We’ve collaborated in many interesting ways since. Working with him in #RRR is an honour & pleasure. https://t.co/G88HeNAVLG

The source also told Mumbai Mirror, “Around 25 per cent of the shoot still remains. With Ramoji Film City and other studios in Hyderabad opening up for shoots, Rajamouli is expected to resume work as soon. Given the scale, it’s a difficult film to shoot and the makers are exploring different options. They are planning a two-day test shoot in Gandipet without the lead actors later this week.”
