Ashutosh Gowariker’s Magnum Opus Panipat will have a mammoth star cast apart from the lead actors Arjun Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Sanjay Dutt.

Ashutosh Gowariker, who is famous for his historical dramas, has roped in about 110 actors for Panipat and apparently each one of them will be having a substantial part in the film.

Casting director Rohan Mapuskar after month-long research and auditions has finally locked the final cast of the film and it is undoubtedly a mighty one. Speaking about the enormous star cast, Mapuskar said, “The third battle of Panipat lasted for several days and involved almost 125,000 troops, so you can imagine the scale of it. There were many important people involved in this battle, hence we had to cast so many actors in the film. Director Ashutosh Gowariker has envisioned the film on a huge scale, and Panipat will definitely be a grand cinematic experience.”

Panipat is based on the Third Battle of Panipat, which is one of the most epic battles in the history of India that took place on 14 January 1761 at Panipat. The battle was fought between the northern expeditionary force of the Maratha Empire and invading forces of the King of Afghanistan, Ahmad Shah Abdali, supported by two Indian allies—the Rohilla Afghans of the Doab, and Shuja-ud-Daula, the Nawab of Awadh.

Panipat is produced by Sunita Gowariker under their home banner AGPPL in association with Rohit Shelatkar’s company – Vision World. The film is scheduled to release on December 6, 2019.
