Ajay, Ranveer to join Akshay Kumar in Sooryavanshi

Rohit Shetty’s Sooryavanshi is one of the most-awaited movies of 2020. The project has been in news right after the director dropped a glimpse of it in his last directorial venture Simmba (2018), featuring Ranveer Singh in the lead role.

Starring superstar Akshay Kumar as an ATS officer, Sooryavanshi also features Katrina Kaif in the lead role. Kumar is the newest entrant in the cop universe created by Rohit Shetty, the previous two being Ajay Devgn as Bajirao Singham and Ranveer Singh as Sangram Bhalerao aka Simmba.


The director is currently in Hyderabad where he will shoot the climax of Sooryavanshi in Ramoji Film City. According to reports, a massive set has been constructed for the climax scene which will be shot over a schedule of 20 days starting from today. What makes the climax scene of Sooryavanshi special is the fact that it will feature all the three actors of Rohit Shetty’s cop universe together for the first time.

“It will be a grand finale with Singham, Simmba and Sooryavanshi teaming up to fight a larger-than-life situation. Rohit and his writers have been working on the climax for months and have finally cracked a scenario which does justice to the three super cops,” reveals a source close to the development.

The source goes on to add that Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh will have an extended cameo in the film. “This is a first for Bollywood and everyone is excited,” the source says in conclusion.

Produced by Rohit Shetty and Karan Johar under the banners of Rohit Shetty Picturez and Dharma Productions respectively, Sooryavanshi is scheduled for its grand release on 27th March, 2020.
