I have referred to many historical documents and books Kadambari, Bakhar etc. I remember one day watching Hollywood movie 300 and I was so fascinated by that movie and it’s vfx that I promised myself to make something so grand in Bollywood.”

“The reason I decided to make a film on Sambhaji Raje is because I have always been inspired by him.

He was such a great and skilled leader who had mastered many languages at a very young age of 14.

He was a scholar who has written 4 granths named Budhbhushan in Sanskrit, Naykabhed, Nakhshikh and Saatsatak in Braj language.

Sambhaji Raje was known as the people’s leader and also took forward Shivaji Maharaj’s dream of Swarajya.

Sambhaji proved to be an ideal successor to Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj with a perfect combination of brilliance, strength, kindness, politeness and knowledge.

He has valiantly fought many battles for our nation . I feel every person should know Raje’s story and gain a sense of nationality.” added the director with immense feeling of pride in his voice.

Shivputra Sambhaji is produced under the banner of Shivani movies in association with Dhanraj Productions.

The film will be made in 4 languages. It is written by one of the accomplished writers in the Marathi industry Pratap Gangavane, who is a master of historical writing with around 100 films and serials namely Raja Shivchatrapati, Swarajya Janani Jijamata, Swarajya Rakshak Sambhaji and Bajirao Mastani, Rajmata Jijau & Swrajya rakshak sambhaji and many more in his bag.

As soon as the lockdown ends, director Ajit has planned to start shooting for the film in historical locations that revolve around Sambhaji Raje, like Raigad, Tulapur and Sangameshwar.
