We know Sam Manekshaw as one of the greatest war heroes. Today on his birth anniversary Sam Manekshaw’s biopic title is announced. The film will be starring Vicky Kaushal in the lead role. Filmmaker Meghna Gulzar and RSVP’s Ronnie Screwvala announced the title of the film and it will be – Sam Bahadur.
The film will be based on the legendary life of Sam Manekshaw and will be brought to life by URI star Vicky Kaushal. We had already seen the first look of the film a few months back and the title is finally out. The uncanny resemblance between the war hero and the actor is making the netizens anticipate the film as one of the bests.
Talking about Honorable Sam Manekshaw he had a military career spanned four decades and five wars. He was the first Indian Army officer to be promoted to the rank of Field Marshal and his military victory in the 1971 Indo-Pak war led to the creation of now Bangladesh.
Filmmaker Meghna Gulzar who is excited about the film says, “He was a soldier’s soldier and a gentleman’s gentleman. They don’t make men like Sam Bahadur anymore. I’m so honored to be telling his story with Ronnie Screwvala and the incredibly talented Vicky Kaushal. On the Field Marshal’s birth anniversary, his story has got its name. I couldn’t be happier.”
Vicky Kaushal, who will be seen playing the character of Manekshaw says, “I had always heard stories about Sam Bahadur from my parents who hail from Punjab and have seen the 1971 war but when I read the script I was completely blown away. He is a hero and patriot who is still remembered and loved to this day and capturing his spirit in the film is of the highest importance to me.”
Ronnie Screwvala added, “We are excited and honored to unfold the story of one of our greatest heroes and announce the title Sam Bahadur on the occasion of his birth anniversary. A great man was born today and we hope to do everything in our power to honor his memory and legacy.”
