Maharashtra has got a great tradition of great sadhus and saints. Samarth Ramdas Swami, a saint of this tradition, has a great legacy. The biography of Samarth Ramdas Swami, who wrote great books like Manache Shlok and Dasbodh for the common people, as well as Sukhkarta Dukhaharta, the aarti of daily worship, will be seen on the silver screen for the first time. The glory of Samarth will be revealed to the world through the upcoming film ‘Raghuveer’. The release date of the film has been announced by releasing a new poster. ‘Raghuveer’ will release everywhere on 23rd August 2024.
‘Raghuveer’, the biography of Samarth Ramdas Swami, is produced by Samarth Creations in association with Dynamic Productions and Adityam Creations. Abhinav Vikas Pathak is the producer of this movie and Vaibhav Kishore Mankar, Sapna Kiran Badgujar and Dr. Kiran Chhagan Badgujar is the co-producer. Khushi Advertising Ideas Pvt. Ltd. is the marketing partner of the film and the film will be released across Maharashtra through film distribution group Cinepolis. Directed by Nilesh Kunjir, ‘Raghuveer’ has been in the news ever since its announcement.

Director Nilesh Kunjir said that bringing the life journey of Samarth Ramdas Swami on the silver screen is a very big challenge.
