Riteish Deshmukh is all set to make his debut as a director with a Marathi film titled Ved. The film is touted to be a romantic drama. The actor took to social media to share poster of the film.
He also wrote, "After being in front of the camera for 20 years, I take a big leap to stand behind it for the first time. As I direct my first Marathi film, I humbly ask you all for your good wishes and blessings. Be a part of this journey, be a part of this madness."
