Saif Ali Khan to join cast of Ajay Devgn’s ‘Taanaji: The Unsung Hero’?

In what would definitely be an interesting casting, it appears that Saif Ali Khan could have signed his first period film in the form of Ajay Devgn’s ‘Taanaji: The Unsung Hero’.

Deccan Chronicle reports that Devgn himself asked Ali Khan to join the film. A source stated, “It took Saif a long time to agree to be a supporting actor. After Kal Ho Naa Ho, he had vowed to never do a two-hero film in which he would have a weaker role. But Ajay has personally assured him that he will have a strong author-backed role”.

The film is based on Maratha warrior Taanaji Malusare and would see Devgn and Ali Khan reunite after 1999’s ‘Kachche Dhaage’ and 2006’s ‘Omkara’.
