In a much-anticipated release, Sara Ali Khan takes on the lead role in the upcoming film “Ae Watan Mere Watan,” set to stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video from March 22. The excitement builds further as the official trailer is scheduled for release on International Women’s Day, March 8.
Produced by Dharma Production’s digital arm, Dharmatic Entertainment, this biopic narrates the inspiring tale of freedom fighter Usha Mehta. The courageous lady played a pivotal role during the Quit India Movement in 1942 by establishing an underground radio station known as Congress Radio.
Usha Mehta’s Congress Radio became a beacon of resistance, broadcasting uncensored news that was banned by the British government. The film captures the indomitable spirit of Mehta and the significant impact her clandestine radio station had during those turbulent times.
Sara Ali Khan, who essays the role of Usha Mehta, expressed her enthusiasm about the project. “Portraying Usha Mehta’s journey has been both an honor and a responsibility. I believe her story needs to be told, especially to the younger generation, to cherish the sacrifices made for our freedom,” said the talented actress.
This marks Sara Ali Khan’s collaboration with Dharmatic Entertainment, and the actress is gearing up for a prolific year with a total of four releases. Alongside “Ae Watan Mere Watan,” audiences can anticipate her presence in “Sky Force” with Akshay Kumar, “Metro In Dino” with Anurag Basu, and the intriguing “Murder Mubarak.”
As the release date approaches, fans eagerly await the trailer’s unveiling on March 8, a fitting tribute to the resilience of women and a precursor to the impactful narrative awaiting them on Amazon Prime from March 22.
