Nana Patekar and Utkarsh Sharma starrer Vanvaas now has a digital release date.

Directed by Gadar 2 director Anil Sharma, the drama film released in theatres on December 20 last year and was a dud both critically and commercially. It will now start streaming on ZEE5 from March 14.

The film also stars Rajpal Yadav and Simrat Kaur in pivotal roles.

As per a press note share by the makers, Vanvaas is a modern take on Ramayana and “revolves around a father who has been abandoned by his sons on the ghats of Varanasi.  Dementia-stricken Deepak (Nana Patekar) believes his children are lost and sets out to find them. He crosses paths with Veeru (Utkarsh Sharma), a cunning thief who initially sees him as an easy target. But as their journey unfolds, Deepak’s innocence stirs something deep within Veeru, forcing him to confront his own conscience.”

Director Anil shared his vision for the film and said, “As a filmmaker, some stories come to you not just as scripts but as emotions waiting to be brought to life. Vanvaas is one such story raw, real, and deeply moving. Nana Patekar was a dream to direct—his ability to live a character rather than just play it is what makes him a legend. Utkarsh Sharma, Simrat Kaur, and Rajpal Yadav brought incredible depth and sincerity to their characters.”
