Sairat director Nagraj Manjule and actor Riteish Deshmukh on Wednesday announced a multilingual trilogy on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj on his 390th birth anniversary.

The film will be backed by Deshmukh’s production Mumbai Film Company. The actor took to Twitter and shared a teaser of the announcement, writing, “Proud to present. Seeking your blessings, Jay Shivray.

“Standing at the threshold of a dream, this might be the case… Today, on the occasion of Shivaji’s birthday, it is a pleasure to say that Shivratri is coming along with Ritesh Deshmukh and Ajay-Atul,” the filmmaker wrote.

Music composers Ajay-Atul, who have been a constant in all of Manjule’s films, will also score the music for trilogy. Riteish, meanwhile, will next feature in Tiger Shroff-starrer Baaghi 3. The film will release on March 6.
