National Film award winner Naman, who received great appreciation for his performance in films such as Bollywood Chillar Party, Jai Ho and Raanjhanaa, will star as young Baba Ramdev (Ramkishan). Ajay Devgn, 48, shared the news on Twitter: "Naman, immensely talented, playing young Swami Ramdev in our upcoming show Swami Ramdev: Ek Sangharsh on Discovery Jeet." This is what the Golmaal actor shared:
Swami Ramdev: Ek Sangharsh is a biopic based on the life of Swami Ramdev's inspirational journey and how he became a Yoga Guru. Earlier, of Naman, Ajay Devgn said in a statement, "There are huge expectations from this biopic series and we wanted to ensure that somebody who fits the bill perfectly gets to play the role of Ramkishan as the audience will, for the first time, get to know about the early days of Swami Ramdev. Naman Jain is hugely talented for his age and has delivered a captivating performance," reports Indian Express.
Naman Jain also spoke about the show and said, "It is an honour to play Swami Ramdev's childhood in his biopic. The task was not easy as Swami Ramdev faced multiple challenges as a child and it was important for me to understand the social tensions that prevailed in a small village. It was also a challenge for me to adopt his style and portray the character."
Swami Ramdev: Ek Sangharsh is produced by Ajay Devgn Film Productions and Watergate Productions.
Ajay Devgn was last seen in Rohit Shetty's comedy drama Golmaal Again, which crossed 200 crore at the box office and was a 'super hit.'
