Directed by Om Raut, Tanhaji is set in the 17th century and is based on the life of Tanaji Malusare, who was the military leader of Shivaji, founder of the Maratha Empire. While Ajay plays the role of the Maratha warrior Tanhaji, Saif Ali Khan has once again stepped into the shoes of antagonist Udhaybhan Rathod.
