Will make another film on Battle of Saragarhi. Kesari didnt do justice, says Rajkumar Santoshi 

Popular filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi is gearing up for the release of his comeback film 'Gandhi Godse Ek Yuddh' which is set to release on Republic Day. During a promotional event for the same, he shared that he will soon start working on a film based on Battle of Saragarhi as he feels that Akshay Kumar's 'Kesari' didn't do justice to the event properly.

For the unversed, Santoshi had announced a film based on Battle of Saragarhi starring Randeep Hooda but he shelved it when Akshay Kumar and Karan Johar started filming 'Kesari' based on the same topic. He said, "I had announced a film called Battle of Saragarhi (2017). Unfortunately (it didn’t work out even after) I shot for twenty days. It was a war film but another film (Kesari) on the same subject was announced with Akshay Kumar and Karan Johar (backing it). So my financiers and I discussed the issue and they got a little worried and backed out. Now next year I’ll do a film on the same subject because I feel that they have not done justice to the subject and it is a great subject.”

When asked whether he'll bring back Randeep Hooda in his film, Santoshi said, "Let’s see when the investors come and how much the film will cost. Randeep is a very dedicated actor, very hard working and committed to the subjects of his films. For two years, he grew his hair and beard and became a sardar for the film. Very rarely you come across an actor like him, someone who is good and hardworking at the same time. I want to do a good film with him in the future.”
