Shershaah has been my favourite film in 2021, and since I saw Sidharth Malhotra give probably his career-best performance in it, I had been waiting to see how the actor would capitalise on that success and choose future roles accordingly. Then, he announced his reunion with Karan Johar in the aerial action franchise, Yodha, and the actor’s first look in the film was intriguing to say the least. And now, there are some new additions to the film and it just makes it all the more exciting.

Earlier today, the makers announced that Disha Patani and Raashii Khanna have come on board the film as the two leading ladies opposite Sidharth and it just makes the film all the more intriguing. Going by the introduction and captions put up by the makers, I am sure that Disha would be doing some heavy-duty stunts in the film as well, as they described her as ‘fierce’.

Check out the announcement:

While this is the first time that Disha and Sidharth will appear together on screen, Yodha also marks Raashii’s return to Hindi cinema after eight years since her debut with Madras Café. Meanwhile, the actress is also working on two web shows with Shahid Kapoor and Ajay Devgn respectively. Yodha is helmed by the duo Sagar Ambre and Pushkar Ojha, and produced by Karan, Hiroo Yash Johar, Apoorva Mehta and Shashank Khaitan. The story of the film would majorly be taking place on a flight, thus making it probably India’s first aerial action film.

I am excited to see these two heartthrobs—Disha and Sidharth—to appear together onscreen. It would be a huge shift from what the audience has seen them doing till now. The makers are going all out with this actioner, and with the team that is backing it up and the thought gone behind it, I am sure that it is going to a flight to remember.
