MUMBAI: Vicky Kaushal, who is on a spree of signing interesting films, is presently working on Sardar Udham Singh, a biopic on revolutionist Udham Singh. The film, which was earlier set to release on October 2, 2020, now has a fresh date and will hit the theatres on January 15, 2021.

80 years ago, on March 13, 1940, Sardar Udham Singh single-handedly assassinated Michael O' Dwyer in order to seek revenge for the brutal Jallianwala Bagh massacre in London, therefore sparking the Indian Freedom Movement.

The makers believe that such a significant story deserves justice on-screen. Hence, they have decided to present Sardar Udham Singh in 2021 as a solo release! It casts October fame Banita Sandhu alongside Vicky, and has been produced by Ronnie Lahiri and Sheel Kumar. Vicky announced the film on March 4, last year.

October 2, 2020 has now been occupied by Ranveer Singh's Jayeshbhai Jordaar.
