Actor-Filmmaker Mahesh Manjrekar has a loyal fan following. They are eagerly awaiting his next. While his directorial Marathi film sequel De Dhakka 2 is soon to release, the filmmaker is putting finishing touches to the biopic of freedom fighter Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Both the films are completely different in genres, and approach. This is an example of Manjrekar’s versatility as a filmmaker. 

Speaking of his upcoming film De Dhakka 2 Majrekar said, “I think writing a comedy film is the most difficult task. It is not easy to make people laugh. We have given our effort and hope that the audience will love it.” 

Talking about his film Swatantra Veer Savarkar, the Wanted actor said, “I think Savarkar's story needs to be told. One man in the history of India's independence whose story needs to be told. What he was or What he did, nobody knows about him. There is a lot of misconception which has to be cleared.”

When asked about casting actor Randeep Hooda for the historical biopic, Mahesh highlighted, “The amount of energy Randeep Hooda brings to the table is simply amazing. He is a very passionate actor and that is what drives me. He is just fantastic.”
