Subhash Ghai's Epic Praise for Raja Shivaji Trailer Buzz

Indian cinema's love for patriotic historicals gets a fresh boost with 'Raja Shivaji', Ritesh Deshmukh's ambitious directorial venture. The trailer's release has fans raving, and Subhash Ghai's enthusiastic endorsement seals the deal. In an Instagram post featuring the poster, the showman declared, 'Trailer rocking hard—imagine the film's grandeur! It's set to offer an unparalleled big-screen immersion.' Ghai lauded Ritesh's triple-threat talent in performing, penning, and helming the film. 'Driven by fervor and precision, it brims with nationalistic fervor that will inspire generations.' Spotlighting Sanjay Dutt and Abhishek Bachchan, Ghai noted their pivotal roles in making the vision a reality. The collective effort promises a landmark achievement. Drawing from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj's storied life, the narrative delves into his battles, wisdom, and foundational role in Maratha history. Beyond biography, it's a clarion call to valor. Joining Ritesh are industry heavyweights like Mahesh Manjrekar, Sachin Khedekar, Bhagyashree, Fardeen Khan, Jitendra Joshi, Amol Gupta, and Genelia Deshmukh. This Jio Studios-backed pan-India extravaganza, produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Genelia Deshmukh, premieres May 1, 2026, in Marathi, Hindi, and Telugu for global audiences. With Ghai's rave, it's poised for glory.
