Now, with a Bollywood bigwig like Salman out of the picture, the team was on
the hunt for a co-producer to be able to retain the vision of the project. Now,
looks like their search has come to an end.

co-producer. Yes, you read that right!
Isha Ambani Might Come On Board For Battle Of Saragarhi
Says a source,
“Akshay Kumar, Karan Johar and Isha Ambani met at Karan’s residence a few days
ago and Isha liked the thought process behind the film.”
Adds a source,
“Akshay, Karan and Reshma Shetty had a final meeting on August 29 at the
superstar’s Juhu residence where they discussed the logistics of Battle Of
Saragarhi. Things are looking good for the team. Isha’s addition to the project
will be ideal.”

Our well-placed
sources also tell us that post the meeting, Akshay had to head to Mehboob
Studios for a shoot, however, the water logging resulted in his car breaking
down. It is then that Karan Johar offered him a lift. Awww!
To talk of Battle
Of Saragarhi, at the moment, Rajkumar Santoshi, Ajay Devgn and Karan-Akshay are
making a film on the same subject.
Battle Of Saragarhi
The famous Battle
of Saragarhi was fought on September 12, 1897, by 21 Sikhs of the 4th Battalion
of the Sikh Regiment, who gave up their lives defending an army post, fighting
against 10,000 Afghans. The battle occurred in the North-West Frontier Province
and is now named the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and is part of Pakistan. The 21 Sikh
contingent was led by Havildar Ishar Singh and they all fought to death.
Coming back to
Isha Ambani, let’s wait and watch to see if an official announcement is soon made
on the matter.
