Akshay Kumar to Play Prithviraj Chauhan in YRF’s Next

Yash Raj Films is making one of the biggest period films ever produced by Bollywood, Prithviraj.

The film is based on the life and heroism of the fearless and mighty King Prithviraj Chauhan and actor Akshay Kumar is essaying the role of the warrior.

Historians and folk legends portray him as an incredibly brave king who stood in front of the merciless Muhammad of Ghor and his ruthless invaders of India.

His daredevilry and heroism against Muhammad of Ghor catapulted him into a legendary ruler and fighter of free India.

Prithviraj is, incidentally, the first ever historical of YRF and the makers announced their ambitious production on the 52nd birthday of the actor Akshay, who plays Prithviraj in the film.

Akshay says: “It is truly an honour that I will be playing the role of one of the most fearless and courageous kings of India, Prithviraj Chauhan.

As a nation, we should always celebrate our heroes and immortalize what they did to propagate the values that Indians lived by.

This is our attempt to bring to light his valour and daredevilry. Prithviraj was the only person standing in front of a merciless nemesis and the bravery he showed, made him a true Indian hero, an inspiration for generations and a legend.

So this announcement coming on my birthday has indeed made it more special for me.”

The film is directed by Dr Chandraprakash Dwivedi who directed the biggest television epic – Chanakya, based on the life and times of the most influential political strategist of India and the multiple award-winning Pinjar.

Prithviraj will release worldwide on Diwali 2020.
