After making a stunning drama Raazi, director Meghna Gulzar is prepping for biopic based on Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw in Sam Bahadur. The film stars Vicky Kaushal, Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Shaikh in the lead roles, and the team has started the reading session.
Sharing pictures from script reading session, Sanya Malhotra captioned it, “Reading together, a story we are honoured to tell. Of a Soldier and a Gentleman. Our SamBahadur @meghnagulzar @vickykaushal09 @fatimasanashaikh @ronnie.screwvala @bhavani.iyer @ishantanus @maharrshshah @rsvpmovies”
Sam Manekshaw’s 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 Bangladesh.
Vicky Kaushal and Meghna Gulzar earlier worked together in the 2018 film Raazi. Whereas Sanya Malhotra and Fatima Sana Shaikh debuted with Dangal and now collaborating for Sam Bahadur.
Produced by Ronnie Screwvala, based on the life of Sam Manekshaw, the film is slated for 2023 release.
