Saif Ali Khan to Play the Bad Guy in Ajay Devgn’s ‘Taanaji’?
Saif and Ajay have shared screen space in Omkara, LOC Kargil and Kachche Dhaage.
Saif Ali Khan is reportedly in talks with the makers of Ajay Devgn’s upcoming film Taanaji: The Unsung Warrior to play the antagonist in the film. Taanaji is based on the life of Taanaji Malusare, a trusted general of Shivaji’s.
According to DNA, the makers are eager to rope in Saif to play Udaybhan Rathod, a Rajput officer and fort-keeper appointed by Moghul army chief Jai Singh, working under Aurangzeb. The film recounts the 1670 Battle of Sinhagad, fought between Taanaji Malusare and Udaybhan.
Will the Sacred Games star sign the dotted line? Wait and watch!
Incidentally, Devgn was earlier working on Sons Of Sardaar: The Battle of Saragarhi,another historical drama, which has however now been shelved. Taanaji will be directed by Om Raut.
