Chief Minister, Shri Eknath Shinde remarked, “Dighe Saheb’s legacy was first introduced to audiences in the movie “Dharmaveer,” but his contributions are so extensive that they cannot be encapsulated in just one film. Hence, the story has been expanded into two parts. This new film aims to highlight crucial elements of his impactful past. We aspire to follow in the footsteps of Dighe Saheb and Balasaheb Thackeray, dedicating ourselves wholeheartedly to their legacy. Dighe Saheb not only championed Hindutva but also protected the entire society, offering help to people of all religions, castes, and creeds without disappointment. No needy person ever left his presence without receiving assistance. Chief Minister Eknath Shinde brought these cherished memories of Anand Dighe to light at the trailer launch of “Dharmaveer 2: Mukkam Post Thane.”
Bollywood superstar Salman Khan commented, “I had come for the first movie’s screening and it was a big hit and I hope and pray that this one will be a even bigger hit”
‘Dharmaveer 2: Mukkam Post Thane’ is anticipated to be a cinematic milestone, capturing the extraordinary journey of a leader who continues to inspire many. The film is slated to release on 9th August, 2024.
