Looking at the first teaser, it seems like Sidharth Malhotra is a commando who is trying to save a crashing plane. Though he is injured, he still seems to be determined to save the passengers on board. Produced by Dharma Productions, Yodha will be helmed by debutant directors Pushkar Ojha and Sagar Ambre. Though the female cast has not been announced officially, there are speculations that the film will feature Disha Patani and Raashi Khanna in the lead roles.
Recently, a News18 report quoted a source: “Sidharth has really loved the script and has been having multiple script narrations with the directors. Just like Shershaah, he wants to give a solid performance and is leaving no stone unturned. On Saturday (November 13), the actor was at Mehboob studios in Bandra for a look test. The actor was present for more than six hours and tried multiple looks for the role,”
“It is an out-and-out action film, and Sidharth is taking a keen interest in the project and wants to have a perfect look in the film,” added the source.
Meanwhile, Sidharth Malhotra has been enjoying the success of his last film, Shershaah, where he received a lot of praises from both fans and critics. Sidharth Malhotra stepped into Bollywood with Karan Johar’s Student Of The Year.
The action-drama film Yodha is slated to release on 11th November 2022.
