Recently, the makers of the much-awaited film ‘Maharaj’, which marks the acting debut of Junaid Khan, unveiled the release date of the period drama.
Taking to Instagram, Siddharth P Malhotra shared the first look poster and captioned it, “The fight for the truth between a powerful man and a fearless journalist. Based on true events – Maharaj is releasing on 14 June, only on Netflix! My next film as a director please give it all the love.”
The poster features Jaideep Ahlawat and Junaid Khan.
In the film, Junaid plays a journalist.
‘Maharaj’ is directed by Siddharth P Malhotra and bankrolled by Aditya Chopra under the YRF Entertainment banner. The film also stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Sharvari and Shalini Pandey.
The film is set in 1862, a time when there were only three universities in India. The film’s official logline reads, “Rabindranath Tagore is a year old and the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857 continues to fan the flames of independence. Against all odds, one man takes a courageous stand in a landmark legal battle, a true story that’s now come to light in Maharaj — more than 160 years later.”
Karsandas Mulji, a journalist and social reformer, was a pioneering advocate for women’s rights and social reform. A student at Elphinstone College in Mumbai and a protege of the scholar-leader Dadabhai Naoroji, he wrote on widow remarriage, stood up for the oppressed, and sowed the seeds of reform in society.
Netflix and Yash Raj Films showcase Karsandas Mulji’s acts of bravery in ‘Maharaj’, which debuts on June 14. Based on the libel case, the film introduces audiences to Junaid Khan in his acting debut.
Maharaj is slated to release on June 14 on Netflix.
