Fresh from his sterling exploits in the heart and gut wrenching "Sarbjit" actor par excellence Randeep Hooda will soon be seen in yet another biopic.......
. According to a statement released by sources close to this dapper and strapping actor Randeep will be reprising the valiant; gallant; intensely patriotic and profoundly inspiring role of Havildar Ishar Singh the platoon commander of the 36th Sikhs which is currently better known as the Fourth Battalion of the indomitable Sikh Regiment..........
Veteran producer/director Rajkumar Santoshi of Andaz Apna Apna; Ghayal; Damini and Phata Poster Nikla Hero fame will be writing/ directing and co producing this hitherto unknown episode from India's illustrious and heroic military history........
Randeep who has made a name for himself by immersing himself to the hilt and investing his all in each of his onscreen characters/portrayals is undergoing intense and exhaustive physical training under the supervision of former Army commandos in order to beef or then build up his body and get the mannerisms of an infantry man down pat.........
Santoshi and his production team are currently scouting and finalising shooting locales for this tour de force in Chandigarh; Bhatinda; Wagah Border Area and other international locations where the Indian army personnel fought to their utmost capacity in numerous battles that are the stuff of folklore or then should I say the nation's proud military history..........
This proposed biopic which has been tentatively titled "Saragarhi (as it is almost exclusively based on the heroic battle of Saragarhi) will go on the floors in the first week of September and is expected to be wrapped up in a marathon hundred day shooting schedule........
"Saragarhi" will be released to coincide with India's 70th Independence Day in 2017 and add to the patriotic and nationalistic fervour that pervades the nation on and around every August 15th if everything goes as per schedule or then as envisaged by the production house that is pumping in an undisclosed amount into this biopic on the life and times of a largely unsung and almost forgotten hero........
