Months after the release of Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, Saif Ali Khan and director Om Raut are all set to reunite in Adipurush, a period saga. The film, also starring Prabhas, will see Khan essaying the role of yet another menacing villain, who is lethal and brutal, all at the same time.

Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, that hit the screens early this year, went to win rave reviews and became the biggest grossing film of 2020. The film raked in more than a whopping Rs 250 crore at the box office. Khan's portrayal of Tanaji Malusare's arch-nemesis, Udaybhan Singh Rathore, received wide acclaim from critics, audience and industry insiders.
