India and Chennai Super Kings all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is all set to enter into film production business with a forthcoming movie titled ‘Pachhattar Ka Chhora’. Jadeja will be accompanied by wife Rivaba Jadeja among other producers of the movie. Although Jadeja is currently with the Indian team in Ahmedabad for Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023, Rivaba was present during the Muhurat ceremony.

The development means that Jadeja will join former India and current Super Kings captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni in the list of cricketers-turned-producers. It was just over a month ago that Dhoni had announced his first movie as a producer under his label Dhoni Entertainment Pvt Ltd.
Veteran India opening batter Shikhar Dhawan, meanwhile, had made his acting debut in a cameo role in Satramm Ramani’s ‘Double XL’ last year. Dropped from the Indian squad, Dhawan had confirmed availability for more acting roles post retirement from all formats.

Jayant Gilatar, who had directed the Gujarati remake of the same name of Mahesh Manjrekar’s blockbuster Marathi movie titled ‘Natsamrat’ (2016), will be directing Pachhattar Ka Chhora. Having directed thousands of episodes for multiple television serials over the years, Gilatar had previously directed a Hindi movie titled ‘Chalk N Duster’ (2016).
