Actress Ankita Lokhande, who is known for her role in 'Pavitra Rishta' will be seen opposite Bollywood actor Randeep Hooda.

Filmmaker Sandeep Singh feels that somewhere Veer Savarkar was misunderstood by many in history, and the movie will bring out the facts about him and his contributions.

He added, "People worldwide continue to misunderstand him. They wanted, and still want, him to apologise without knowing the reason. When I say that Veer Savarkar was truly a patriot, I mean it and stand by it staunchly. Thus, for those who have misunderstood him need to watch our film for all the factual information. History cannot be corrected and the events that have transpired in the past cannot be changed. I feel privileged and grateful to have the opportunity to make a film on one of our greatest freedom fighters of his time."

According to the film's producer, Anand Pandit, many of us came across the contributions of freedom fighters, Savarkar's ideologies and contributions have never been highlighted similarly.

He said, "Savarkar is a very prestigious project for us because of the incredible impact that Veer Savarkar had on our nation's freedom struggle. His story, unfortunately, has not been told to us as a country and we hope our film will complete that lacune. We present the film's first look and hope the audience comes back asking for more."
