Production house Mythri Movie Makers recently wished veteran actor Anupam Kher on his 70th birthday with a specially designed poster for their upcoming historical drama Fauzi. The post highlighted Kher’s pivotal role alongside Prabhas in a story set during the 1940s, inspired by the era of Subhas Chandra Bose.
The birthday tribute caption read: “Wishing the phenomenal @AnupamPKher Ji a very Happy Birthday. It is an absolute honour to have you as part of the #Fauzi battalion. Wishing you a happy and healthy year ahead,” accompanied by the custom Fauzi poster featuring Kher. The visual reinforces his significance in the narrative, which blends patriotic war action with historical storytelling.
Directed by Hanu Raghavapudi and produced in collaboration with T-Series, Fauzi boasts a star-studded ensemble including Mithun Chakraborty, Imanvi, and Jaya Prada. The trailer, which dropped in October 2025, built significant anticipation for the film, which is scheduled for a festive Independence Day 2026 release.
Fans responded enthusiastically to the birthday post, flooding replies with questions about Kher’s character, plot updates, and glimpses of his scenes alongside Prabhas. The reaction underscores the excitement around Fauzi, particularly as it marks Prabhas’ next major cinematic project following his recent blockbuster successes.
The film’s storyline promises a mix of historical depth, action, and patriotic fervor, with Anupam Kher’s role central to the depiction of India’s fight during the colonial era. With the combination of a celebrated veteran, a pan-India star, and a strong ensemble, the movie is already trending as one of the most awaited releases of 2026.
