Riteish Deshmukh and Sairat director Nagraj Manjule are coming together for another interesting project. On Wednesday, they announced they were currently working on a multilingual trilogy on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, which happened to be Shivaji’s 390th birth anniversary. The film will be produced by Riteish Deshmukh’s production house — Mumbai Film Company. Riteish took to Twitter to share a teaser of the announcement and wrote, “Proud to present. Seeking your blessings, Jay Shivray.”

Director Nagraj Manjule also took to his social media and wrote, “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.” Along with Najraj, his Sairat music composers Ajay-Atul are also part of the upcoming trilogy.
