Actor-producer Ajay Devgn and director Om Raut started the year 2020 by releasing their much-anticipated movie Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior. The movie that also starred Saif Ali Khan and Kajol in lead roles became one of the highest-grossing films of 2020. While many filmmakers came forward with their best works in the form of movies and web-shows, this dream project was celebrated by the masses as it marked Devgn's 100th film.

The movie took us through the mesmerising story of Subhedar Tanhaji Malusare, a trusted soldier of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, who sacrificed his life in the Battle of Sinhagad. Not only did the movie earn more than 270 crores in the six weeks that it was being screened, but it was later re-released in October 2020 when theatres reopened for the audience.

The movie was quick to climb the box-office charts due to its exceptional cinematic experience. With the gripping storyline, the remarkable VFX that brought to life the difficult stunts by the cast and Ajay Devgn's collaboration with actor Saif Ali Khan and wife Kajol on-screen after a long time created excitement amongst the audience. Watching the story of courage and valour, which marked the directorial debut of Om Raut in Bollywood, especially in 3D, on the big screen turned out to be an unforgettable experience for everyone.

On this occasion, Ajay shared a clip from the film on social media to mark the one year anniversary of the film. While sharing the video, Ajay wrote, "Tanhaji-The Unsung Hero helped ADFFILMS & me begin last year with a box office bang🎉 Due to the Pandemic, the rest of 2020 remained a blur. A year on, I'm taking time to celebrate this brave warrior again✌️ Here's to my co-actors, director & entire cast, and crew."
