Mahesh Manjrekar Lists REASONS Why Akshay Kumar Is PERFECT For Playing Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj; Says ‘He Has Nose Like …’
Akshay Kumar, a superstar, is renowned for his varied performances and action-packed parts. He has made a name for himself as one of Bollywood's most well-liked and financially viable actors. The celebrity has taken on a number of roles, but in a Marathi movie, he will play Chhtrapathi Shivaji Maharaj.
Recently, there was a lot of hype about the Marathi movie Vedat Marathe Veer Daudale Saat, which was directed by Mahesh Manjrekar. It was introduced in a huge way, and celebrities like Salman Khan, Khiladi Kumar, the director, and Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde attended.
According to reports, Mahesh Manjrekar discusses why Akshay Kumar was chosen to play Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in the film "Why Wouldn't Anyone Play the Role of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj." The desire to portray Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is at the very top of the priority list for actors. Although I performed the part in one of my Marathi movies, this time we needed someone who resembled Maharaj a bit more youthfully.
In addition, we wanted one of the few heroes we had to resemble Shivaji Maharaj. Akshay's nose resembles Shivaji Maharaj's in an interesting way. Although we don't have the photos, the sketches we do have are quite comparable. Akshay Kumar so fit the criteria well.
