Veteran filmmaker Anil Sharma, celebrated for his iconic blockbuster Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, returns with a heartfelt family drama, Vanvaas. Starring Nana Patekar, Utkarsh Sharma, and Simratt Kaur, the film marks a departure from Sharma’s signature high-octane action films, embracing a deeply personal narrative. Released on December 20, 2024, Vanvaas showcases Sharma’s evolving creative vision.
In a recent interview with Times Now, Sharma candidly spoke about his motivation behind Vanvaas. “After the massive success of Gadar 2, I felt an urge to create something different—something closer to my heart. Vanvaas is that film. It’s a gift to the audience, but also to myself,” he shared.
The filmmaker revealed that the idea for Vanvaas had been brewing for some time. A pivotal moment came when Nana Patekar reached out, questioning Sharma’s next move. “Nana Sir asked, ‘Will you now make another big action film or this one?’ I knew instantly I wanted to make Vanvaas with him. We had already discussed it during Gadar 2,” Sharma recounted.
For Sharma, Vanvaas represents more than just another project—it’s a reflective piece of storytelling. “Some films, like Gadar, you make for the public. But once in a while, you create something like Vanvaas—for your soul. It’s deeply personal,” he added.
The film has struck a chord with audiences, receiving widespread acclaim for its emotional depth and stellar performances. Sharma expressed his gratitude for the positive reception: “To see people connect with Vanvaas makes me so happy. It’s a validation of the story I wanted to tell.”
Vanvaas, backed by Zee Studios, continues the successful collaboration between the studio and Sharma, following the blockbuster hits Gadar: Ek Prem Katha and Gadar 2. Written, produced, and directed by Anil Sharma, the film is now in theaters, showcasing a narrative that blends heartfelt storytelling with exceptional performances from its lead cast.
