As Suniel Shetty tried to console him, Sooraj Pancholi turned around to hide his emotional side. Despite being embroiled in the case of Jiah Khan’s suicide, Sooraj Pancholi had a promising start in Bollywood. But after three unsuccessful films, the makers stopped taking a chance on the actor.
However, he received his second chance with Kesari Veer: Legend of Somnath, co-starring Suniel Shetty and Akanksha Sharma. During the film’s trailer launch event, the actor got emotional and was seen in tears as he thanked the makers for giving him a shot. Sooraj said, “Thank you, Kanu sir, for giving me a chance.
Uh, thank you...
" The actor then got emotional and tried to fight his tears. As Suniel Shetty tried to console him, Sooraj turned around to hide his vulnerability. Suniel Shetty talked about the Hero actor’s efforts for the historical drama.
He said, “He (Sooraj) has seen a lot. Now, he’s got this second chance. Trust me, this is an opportunity the Almighty has given, that Mahadev (Lord Shiva) has given.
You’ll see it in the film that he’s unbelievably good! Every time I see him on screen, it’s like I’m watching Ahan. That’s the kind of effort he’s put in. And the same kind of love.
" For the unversed, Sooraj was accused of involvement in the suicide of actor and late girlfriend Jiah Khan by her family. In 2023, a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court in Mumbai acquitted him of abetment charges. As for Kesari Veer: Legends of Somnath, the film provides a dramatic insight into the narrative of Hamirji Gohil, a courageous warrior who fought against the Tughlaq Empire to safeguard the Somnath Temple.
Suniel Shetty stars in the film as the fearless warrior Vegda Ji, who commands the battlefield while striving to uphold ‘Dharma’. Sooraj Pancholi makes a comeback to the big screen as Veer Hamirji Gohil. The film is directed by Prince Dhiman and produced by Kanu Chauhan.
