The Hindi remake will feature Sanjay Dutt, Manisha Koirala, Jackie Shroff, Chunky Panday, Ali Fazal, Amyra Dastur and Satyajeet Dubey in lead roles.

Doesn't the poster look intriguing? All the characters look fascinating and it will be interesting to see what the film has in store for us.
The first look poster of the film featuring Sanjay Dutt was unveiled recently, and Dutt, who recently turned 60, looks ravishing as a politician in it. Sanjay Dutt shared his look on Instagram along with the caption, "Earn the legacy... virasat se nahi, kabiliyat se! #Prasthanam in cinemas on 20th September 2019".
Sanjay Dutt will be playing the role of politician Baldev Pratap Singh, and he sure does look immensely intense in the poster. Satyajeet Dubey, who will be playing Dutt's son in the movie, was elated to have landed the role. In an interview with mid-day, he shared his experience of working with Sanjay Dutt. He said, "I was awestruck when I met him at the Sanjay S Dutt Productions office. But Sanju sir broke the ice by giving me a jaadu ki jhappi. He told me that he had liked my work in Kerry On Kutton (2016)."
Dubey also spoke of how the shoot was emotionally draining. "Sometimes, I would shiver as it used to be exhausting, emotionally as well as physically. Sanju sir used to observe me quietly. Finally, one day, he sat me down and said, 'Beta, you need to learn how to switch on and switch off, or else you won't be able to create a volume of work as an actor.'"
Besides Prasthanam, Sanjay Dutt will also be seen in Mahesh Bhatt's Sadak 2. The actor was last seen in Kalank, a period drama. Prasthanam is slated to hit the theatres on September 20.
