Swatantra Veer Savarkar is a biopic based on the life of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Notably, this film marks Randeep Hooda's directorial debut. However, the project faced legal issues last year when Hooda asserted full ownership of the film, causing a dispute. Additionally, Mahesh Manjrekar, initially set to direct the biopic, claimed to have departed from the project due to Hooda's interference.
