Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi has been roped in to play Aurangzeb opposite Rishab Shetty`s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in Sandeep Singh`s upcoming historical epic, `The Pride of Bharat: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj`, according to reports on Friday. While there is no official confirmation as of yet. The film will depict the journey of history’s greatest warrior king, highlighting the courage, strategy, and devotion that shaped the foundation of Swarajya.

With Rishab Shetty as Shivaji Maharaj, Shefali Shah as Jijamata, and now Vivek Oberoi stepping into the role of Aurangzeb, the stage is set for a compelling narrative that explores both conflict and conviction at an epic scale. Vivek Oberoi`s inclusion will add another remarkable chapter to his strong slate of upcoming projects, which includes Sandeep Reddy Vanga`s `Spirit` with Prabhas and Nitesh Tiwari’s `Ramayana`.
