NEW DELHI: Mumbai witnessed a star-studded event on Sunday as the trailer for “Dharmaveer-2” was launched in the presence of Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.

The sequel continues to chronicle the life and contributions of the late Shiv Sena leader Anand Dighe, a prominent figure known for his dedication to Hindutva and social service.

The event was graced by notable personalities, including Bollywood stars Salman Khan and Govinda, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, and veterans like Ashok Saraf and Mahesh Kothare. Salman Khan’s stylish entry was a highlight, greeted with a grand welcome, a bouquet, and a shawl from the Chief Minister.

“Salman Khan’s entry in the trailer launch of ‘Dharmaveer-2’ was very stylish,” remarked Manav Mangalani, a prominent figure in film news.

 

“Dharmaveer-2,” produced by Mangesh Desai of Sahil Motion Arts and Umesh Kumar Bansal of Zee Studios, is written and directed by Pravin Tarde. The first film, “Dharmaveer,” released in 2022, was a superhit, but according to Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, “Dighe Saheb’s contributions are so extensive that they cannot be encapsulated in just one film.”

The first film’s success has set high expectations for the sequel. Salman Khan, reflecting on the previous film’s impact, said, “I had come for the first movie’s screening, and it was a big hit. I hope and pray that this one will be an even bigger hit.”

Anand Dighe, affectionately known as ‘Dharmaveer,’ was celebrated not just for his political influence but for his unwavering support to people of all religions, castes, and creeds. Chief Minister Shinde reminisced, “Dighe Saheb not only championed Hindutva but also protected the entire society, offering help to people of all backgrounds. No needy person ever left his presence without receiving assistance.”

The trailer launch was attended by a host of celebrities, including Jeetendra, Boman Irani, Rakul Preet Singh, Jackky Bhagnani, Amruta Khanvilkar, Nivedita Joshi, and Prasad Oak, who portrays Anand Dighe in the film. Kshitish Date plays the young Eknath Shinde, bringing a personal connection to the screen.

Salman Khan attended the event with tight security, a precautionary measure following recent threats. The Mumbai Police has significantly increased his security. His last film, “Tiger 3,” was well-received, and he also featured in Shah Rukh Khan’s “Pathaan.” His next film, “Sikandar,” is set to release on Eid next year.

“Dharmaveer-2: Mukkam Post Thane” is set to release on August 9, 2024, promising to delve deeper into Anand Dighe’s profound influence and lasting legacy in the Thane region.
