First Look of Ajay Devgn’s Sons of Sardar: Battle of Saragarhi

The first glimpse into Ajay Devgn’s upcoming film ‘Sons Of Sardaar’, previously scheduled to release in theatres during Diwali next year, is out.

The magnum-opus will be made on a massive scale and the production standards will match international action-thrillers.

The film is based on the battle of Saragarhi, which was fought before the Tirah Campaign on 12 September 1897 between British Indian Army and Afghan Orakzai tribesmen. It occurred in the North-West Frontier Province (now in Pakistan).

The British Indian contingent comprised 21 Sikhs of the 36th Sikhs (now the 4th Battalion of the Sikh Regiment), who were stationed at an army post attacked by around 10,000 Afghans. The Sikhs, led by Havildar Ishar Singh (likely to be played by Ajay Devgn), chose to fight to the death, in what is considered by some military historians as one of history’s great last-stands.

The Battle of Saragarhi is one of eight stories of collective bravery published by UNESCO. It has been mentioned as one of the five most significant events of its kind in the world which includes the Battle of Thermopylae associated with the heroic stand of a small Greek force against the mighty Persian Army of Xerxes I in 480 B.C.

Ajay has a interesting lineup of upcoming films which includes his ambitious directorial venture ‘Shivaay’ and his reunion with Milan Luthria and Emraan Hashmi in ‘Baadshaho’.

‘Sons of Sardaar’ doesn’t have a release date, as Ajay’s ‘Golmaal 4’ is scheduled to release during Diwali next year.

  • This one is looking brilliant if content click then would create havoc at the box office….but now mark my words mohenjodaro is going to be best intense movie of the year….even movie of the year…I hv strong feeling mojo will be huge hit.

  • Looks extremely interesting. I was expecting it to be a masala movie like previous SoS but it is a magnum opus based on battle of Saragarhi.

    Looking to be more on the lines of TLOBS. Expecting a classical war based movie and performance from Ajay.

    Very excited about this one.

  • star cast should be interesting………it was rumoured that the film would star Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan in cameos (maybe brave sardaars) who give up their lives for the cause!

  • Absolutely brilliant will watch it sure i like war film . But this film need diwali or Christmas to recover budget .

  • The story is legendary so if told well it will be a great viewing experience for sure…!

    Eagerly anticipating this one- all the best team SOS

  • Fought for britshers… Dont know whether to celebrate or not… Could had participated in indian independence movement…

  • This poster is just amazing . Battle of Saragarhi is one of the most intense battles fought in the history of mankind . I am really happy to see Ajay is making a movie on such a topic . I think Sons Of Sardaar will release in 2018 . Ajay has a terrific lineup with Shivaay, Baadshaho, Golmaal Again and Sons Of Sardaar . The only movie for which I am not excited is Remo D’souza’s next with Ajay and Sooraj Pancholi . Remo is a terrible director and I don’t trust his directorial abilities . It is really great to see Ajay investing his money on such kind of movies which require high scale, production values and top notch VFX . I hope the official announcement regarding the starcast and the release date is made soon . Excited !!!!!!

  • I guess they should rename the movie…….it sounds like Son of Sardar 2, and SoS was completely a different genre.

  • My love and respect to all the Sikhs !!!

    I have never seen such a gracious, cheerful, helpful and humorous race in my life . They probably have the biggest contribution to our country’s safety .

  • The movie will be really hard to make, as they must show all the tribal areas of NWFP (now called Khyber Pukhtunkhwa) in really dilicate way and the VFX must be worldclass, this was of course one of the most heroic last stand fight by 21 sikhs.. best of luck to ajay and i hope they show the story in a right way.

  • Ambitious !!!
    Bollywood needs these kind of films….but sadly when anyone tries something like this there are many people who spread unwanted negativity jus because their star isn’t doin dat film.
    Plz stop this negativity if u dnt like it dnt watch it as simple as that.

  • This is very impressive first look.

    Ajay also said that they will match the scale of Hollywood war film 300. Looking forward to it.. fingers crossed!!!
