Last seen in Colors' Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat, popular television star Mohit Raina is all set to make a comeback with a powerful role. The actor has bagged Contiloe Pictures' upcoming magnum-opus called 21 Sarfarosh: Saragarhi 1897. The historical show will beam on a soon-to-be-launched channel, Discovery Jeet.
21 Sarfarosh: Saragarhi 1897 is inspired by the real-life story of 21 brave soldiers of the 36th Sikh regiment of the British Indian Army, who defended an army outpost against an onslaught by over 10,000 Afghans in 1897. Mohit will be seen in the role of Havildar Ishar Singh.
Talking about the show, Mohit said, “It is very exciting to be in a period drama like 21 Sarfarosh: Saragarhi 1897. Period dramas have their own challenges; one must work hard to ensure that you don’t just embrace the character you are playing, you also have to understand the smaller nuances of the period to deliver an authentic experience. For Ishar Singh, the only thing mattered was his duty, service. The utmost priority was to serve the nation at any cost and be true to his people, a story of a common man turning into a saviour during difficult times. An extraordinary story of an ordinary person drove me towards it.”
Besides Mohit Raina, 21 Sarfarosh: Saragarhi 1897 also stars Mukul Dev in a pivotal role.
