In a shoutout to 'Raja Shivaji' actors Abhishek Bachchan and Sanjay Dutt, the filmmaker further sent his blessings to the entire team.

"Genuinely supported by stars like Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan n the whole industry to see that it becomes an excellent film. Look forward to see this film soon. My blessings always," he concluded.

Reacting to the kind words, actor Riteish Deshmukh couldn't help but express immense gratitude.

He reshared Ghai's post and wrote, "Sir, I became an actor because I was spotted on your set. I have been and still am a huge fan of you and your work, and to get a call from you last night and this post means a world to me. You have always been encouraging and I need all your blessings. I love you sir."

The trailer of Riteish Deshmukh's starrer 'Raja Shivaji' was unveiled on Monday, taking audiences into the actor's intense pursuit of swarajya. With a powerful cast ensemble, the film aims to shed light on the extraordinary legacy of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

With Riteish stepping as the Maratha warrior, he appears focused and determined, striving to establish swarajya. Genelia Deshmukh as Chhatrapati Shivaji's wife brings much emotional depth to the story.

The trailer also features Sanjay Dutt as a menacing ruler and Abhishek Bachchan as Sambhaji Shahaji Bhosale, offering a glimpse into their larger screen presence. Among others taking up key roles are Vidya Balan, Bhagyashree, Mahesh Manjerakar, and Boman Irani.

Presented by Jio Studios and produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Genelia Deshmukh under the banner of Mumbai Film Company, Raja Shivaji is set to release in cinemas worldwide on May 1, in Marathi, Hindi and Telugu. (ANI)
