Nice to see the Masti gang still supporting each other after all these years! That film was my childhood. Hope the new movie does justice to the great king's story. The pressure is on, but wishing them all the best.

While the sentiment is lovely, I do hope the focus remains on creating a historically accurate and respectful portrayal. Shivaji Maharaj's legacy is monumental, and it deserves a film that is careful with facts, not just spectacle.

Genelia is such a gem. Always so graceful and supportive. Behind every successful man, there is a strong woman, they say. Vivek calling her "Maharani Saibai" is just perfect! 👑

The trailer looks grand, but making a film on such an iconic figure is a huge responsibility. I hope they've done their research properly and not just made a typical Bollywood masala film with a historical backdrop. Fingers crossed!
