Devgn also rubbished the claims of feeling threatened by Johar’s Kesar, stating that he is not “worried about any other film” “We are working on the script but it won’t happen for another two years because of the scale of the project. The designing of such films is different. What people usually do is first shoot, then get into CGI. But technically, to reach the desired standards, you have to get into CGI first, shoot and then go back to the CGI. We’re going through that process with both Tanaji and Battle of Saragarhi. I plan to go beyond Shivaay with both these films. Meanwhile, I’m working on another script for a third directorial, which will roll once I’m done w_ith Tanaji_ and begin another film towards the end of 2018 or early 2019,” said Devgn according to a Mumbai Mirror report. According to a report , both Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn were readying themselves to portray the same character on screen — Havaldar Ishar Singh, a military leader of 21 Sikh soldiers who led his army to a deathly war against Afghani invaders. This historical incident was then titled the Battle of Saragarhi. Kesar is reportedly all set for a 2018 release, and will allegedly be helmed by Anurag Singh. Karan Johar and Salman Khan are supposed to be the co-producer’s of this multi-star project.
