Bhoomi is Sanjay Dutt's first film after his five-year jail term and marks his comeback to the big screen after a gap of 3 years. Mr Dutt last featured in 2014 movie PK, starring Aamir Khan and Anushka Sharma.

Bhoomi has been co-produced by Bhushan Kumar, Sandeep Singh and Omung Kumar. The film has been widely shot in Chambal, Mumbai and Agra.

In an earlier interview with NDTV, Sanjay Dutt said that Bhoomi is the perfect film for his comeback.

"I have been looking for scripts that went beyond my screen persona. I wanted to do something vulnerable yet powerful," said the actor.

Speaking to news agency PTI, director Omung Kumar said it was a big responsibility to direct Sanjay Dutt's comeback film. "We went with three scripts and he loved Bhoomi and asked me to direct. It was a big responsibility to direct his comeback film. It is a dream come true for me. I hope I have done justice to the film," PTI quoted Omung Kumar as saying.

Bhoomi will release in the theatres along with Shraddha Kapoor's Haseena Parkar and Rajkummar Rao's Newton.
