Sharing the picture, Abhishek wrote, 'It’s a privilege to present @ajaydevgn sir’s first look as Sq. Ld. Vijay Karnik from my upcoming directorial film #BhujThePrideOfIndia #14Aug2020.'
He also revealed that the film will open in theatres a day before Independence Day this year. Ajay plays the lead role and will be seen as Squadron Leader Vijay Karnik. The actor has worked in a number of patriotic films, with another of his upcoming films, Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, also showcasing similar sentiments.
Bhuj: The Pride Of India tells one of the many stories of bravery, selflessness, and commitment, shown by ordinary people apart from the armed forces during the 1971 Indo-Pak War.
The period drama looks back into the journey of 300 women from Madhapar village of Gujarat’s Kutch district, who played a pivotal role in helping India win the war. The women came together to rebuild and repair the only runway in Bhuj, which was crucial for the war.
Currently, Ajay is busy promoting his 100th film Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior which is directed by Om Raut and it has been co-produced by Ajay Devgn and Bhushan Kumar.
The film is slated to hit the screens on January 10. The film also stars Pankaj Tripathi, Sharad Kelkar, Luke Kenny, and Neha Sharma in pivotal roles. The film will clash with Deepika Padukone's Chhapaak at the box office.
