On the birth anniversary of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, the makers of his upcoming biopic have released the first look of Randeep Hooda in character. The poster, pulling on punches, reads, 'Hindutva Dharm Nahin, Itihaas Hai,’. The film is going on floor in August 2022.

Producer Sandeep Singh shared, “At a time when films of Harshad Mehta, Vijay Mallya, and Lalit Modi are trending,  I am more interested in telling the story of Veer Savarkar’s life. He was the first dynamic hero of India and the only man who could have saved the Partition in 1947. Through this film, I, not only as a filmmaker, but most importantly as an Indian, want to tell the world the facts about Savarkar’s struggle. His courageous fight for freedom, his fearless persona which scared the British, and his commitment to Hindutva till his last breath is heavily inspiring. He is the most misunderstood hero and it is high time that we understand him, and moreover celebrate this rebel. He never got what he deserved and hence, I plead that Savarkar should be gracefully awarded the Bharat Ratan and Nobel Prize.”
 
Director Mahesh Manjrekar stated, "People may have different versions in their mind for Savarkar but as a filmmaker, I’m trying to match the same thought which Savarkar had. So, the character of Savarkar in the film will not have any difference from what Savarkar was in real life. He was the iconic freedom fighter and we'll ensure that he's never forgotten ever by any Indian.”

Actor Randeep Hooda shared, “This is a salute to one of the tallest unsung heroes of India’s struggle for freedom and self-actualisation. I hope I can live up to the challenge of filling such big shoes of a true revolutionary and tell his real story which had been brushed under the carpet for so long..”
 
SwatantraVeer Savarkar is presented by Anand Pandit Motion Pictures and Legend Studios.
