Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, directed by Om Raut, is so far the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2020 fetching almost 300 crores. Set in the 17th century, it’s based on the life of Tanhaji Malusare, a valiant military leader in Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s (Sharad Kelkar) army. The film depicts Tanhaji’s (Ajay Devgn) attempts to recapture the Kondhana fort from Aurangzeb (Luke Kenny). The Mughal emperor had transferred its control to his trusted guard Udaybhan Singh Rathore (Saif Ali Khan). Om says it was always a dream to bring Tanhaji, the unsung hero to life. “Our history is full of dedicated people, who fought for the country. I want the masses to be proud of such heroes and through them, of our own history and heritage,” he declares.
