Debutante Manushi Chhillar is ecstatic that her maiden film ‘Prithviraj’ starring Akshay Kumar is releasing a week earlier.
Manushi says, “I was really happy when I heard that the film was getting preponed. It’s been quite the wait for the entire team of the film and when you hear that the movie is coming earlier than usual, you do feel a sense of joy because all of us have been waiting for the moment when the incredible life story of Samrat Prithviraj will be unveiled on the big screen.”
‘Prithviraj’ is based on the life and valour of the fearless and mighty King Prithviraj Chauhan. Superstar Akshay is essaying the role of the legendary warrior who fought valiantly against the merciless invader Muhammad Ghori.
Manushi has been cast opposite Akshay as Prithviraj’s beloved Princess Sanyogita.
She adds, “It is a big screen spectacle and I’m counting down days for its release. The film was postponed twice due to the pandemic. So, it’s preponement definitely brings a huge smile to my face! I wish the film entertains every movie lover of the country with its bigness.”
‘Prithviraj’ is directed by Padma Shri Dr Chandraprakash Dwivedi who directed the television epic ‘Chanakya’ – based on the life and times of the most influential political strategist of India and the multiple award-winning movie ‘Pinjar’.

It is the ultimate theatrical entertainer that needs to be watched in its full glory. I have been fortunate enough to have gotten this kind of launchpad and I’m hoping that I have done justice to the opportunity that I have got.”
She adds, “I worked hard to get the part and I know that I worked on myself harder to play the role of Princess Sanyogita. It was a huge responsibility.”
“I’m thrilled that people are appreciating how I’m looking in the film. I hope that they love how I have performed too because that’s going to be my true test on screen.”
