Ajay Devgn To Produce Siddhant Chaturvedi And Mohit Raina's Period Creature Drama: Report

Ajay Devgn to reportedly produce Siddhant Chaturvedi's upcoming 1945 period creature drama for OTT, directed by Neha Sharma, with Mohit Raina in a key role. Ajay Devgn seems to have found his next big venture – but not in front of the camera. The superstar is said to be backing an ambitious period action-creature film that places Siddhant Chaturvedi in the lead role. The project is being put together for a leading OTT platform and carries a scale rarely seen in Indian cinema. While Devgn was first approached to play a parallel lead, he reportedly chose to pass on acting duties and instead come on board as producer under his own banner. Mohit Raina has now stepped into that parallel lead role. Ajay Devgn New Movie The film is set against the backdrop of 1945, a time of huge change in India's history. Blending creature thrills with a period setting, the untitled project is being described as an experiment that could bring a new flavour to the screen. It also marks the directorial debut of actor Neha Sharma, who is set to take the reins when the shoot begins later this year. Pre-production is currently underway, with cameras expected to roll in October and a release planned for next year. Siddhant Chaturvedi on landing the role For Siddhant Chaturvedi, who recently appeared in Dhadak 2, this is another major step in his career. Speaking about the opportunity, he told Bollywood Bubble, 'Maybe I'm a bit lucky. Receiving scripts like these makes me feel there is some power up there." Ajay Devgn and Siddhant Chaturvedi movies Ajay Devgn was last seen in Son of Sardar 2. The film also starred the late Mukul Dev, marking his posthumous release. Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, the film featured an ensemble cast including Ajay Devgn, Ravi Kishan, Sanjay Mishra, Mrunal Thakur, Neeru Bajwa, Chunky Panday, Kubbra Sait, Deepak Dobriyal, Vindu Dara Singh, Roshni Walia, Sharat Saxena, and Sahil Mehta. Siddhant Chaturvedi was last seen in Dhadak 2, the sequel to the 2018 romantic drama Dhadak. Directed by Shazia Iqbal and backed by Dharma Productions, the sequel stars Siddhant alongside Triptii Dimri.

Adding to the intrigue is the fact that it marks the directorial debut of actor Neha Sharma . Currently in its pre-production stage, the project is expected to go on floors in October, with a release window likely sometime next year. Siddhant reflects on his journey Meanwhile, Siddhant Chaturvedi, who was most recently seen in 'Dhadak 2', reflected on how humbling it feels to land opportunities of this scale.

These 3 Heroes Debuted In 1991. Two Ruled Bollywood, But One Faded Away

Akshay Kumar, who rose from a failed first film to rule the box office for decades; Ajay Devgn, who stormed into stardom with his very first stunt; and Vivek Mushran, who started with a blockbuster but slipped away from the limelight. (News18 Hindi) The first among them to test his luck was Akshay Kumar. His debut film Saugandh released on 25 January 1991. Directed by Raj N Sippy, the action drama paired him opposite Shantipriya, who was also making her first appearance in Bollywood. But despite the anticipation, the film turned into a box office failure. (News18 Hindi) Months later, on 9 August 1991, Vivek Mushran arrived with Saudagar. Directed by Subhash Ghai, the film featured Manisha Koirala in her debut role and brought two legends, Dilip Kumar and Raj Kumar, together on screen. Unlike Akshay Kumar's start, Vivek's launch was spectacular. (News18 Hindi) Saudagar became the third highest-grossing film of that year, turning him into an overnight star. But while the film promised a bright future, the promise did not last. Subsequent films failed to replicate the success, and gradually Vivek shifted his focus to television, appearing in serials and supporting roles rather than leading the big screen. (News18 Hindi) Then came the storm of Ajay Devgn's entry. On 22 November 1991, his debut film Phool Aur Kaante hit the screens, introducing audiences to a fresh action hero. The film was a runaway success, remembered most for its iconic stunt of Ajay balancing on two moving motorcycles, a sequence that instantly established him as an action star. (News18 Hindi) The film's music too was a chartbuster, cementing his place among the promising newcomers. Over the years, Ajay has evolved into one of the most versatile and enduring stars in Bollywood, balancing intense action roles with meaningful dramas and even comedy, while also earning recognition as a producer and director.
