Ajay Devgn To Act, Direct Sons Of Sardar?

From singing in films to becoming producers, Bollywood stars are leaving no field untried. The latest news is that Ajay Devgn is gearing himself to direct yet another film after Shivaay. Speculations are rife that the Singham star will also don the hat of a director for his upcoming flick Sons Of Sardaar, which is based on the battle of Saragarhi. The Golmaal star is also playing the lead role in the flick.

DNA quoted a source as saying, “Ashwni Dhir was to direct the film. Then Ajay realised it would become an extremely costly project. He then roped in Ship Of Theseus director, Anand Gandhi to direct the film. After that, he changed his mind and decided to helm it himself”.

The source continued, “He wants to shoot SOS on an international scale — budget and technology-wise. He is very excited about bringing the Battle of Saragarhi to life and AJ will, in all probability, play the leader of the Sikh Regiment, Havildar Ishar Singh”. The action packed war film is based on the famous 1897 battle of Saragarhi, in which 21 Saragarhi Sikhs died fighting 10,000 Afghans.
