Dharmaveer Anand Chintamani Dighe’s car, the popular Mahindra Armada vehicle in which he lost his life has always been preserved and worshipped by the people of Mumbai. This vintage car was present at the event and it was in this vehicle that the actor of the film, Prasad Oak made a grand entry in and drove upto the stage for the trailer launch of ‘Dharmaveer’.

Speaking at the event, Shri Uddhav Thackeray said, “Eknath, I say this from the bottom of my heart, you and your team have done a great job. Making a movie is one thing but to make a movie on this subject and taking up the onus of taking this story ahead and making it reach the audience is admirable.”
Shri Eknath Shinde quoted, “This film about his life should reach our people who are all around the city and the world. Pravin Tarde, the director and Mangesh Desai, the producer wished to make a movie on Dighe Ji and started working on it and it was during the working phase that the teaser and songs got very popular. I would like to appreciate the actor, Prasad Oak, who played the role perfectly inspite of not meeting Dighe Ji. He has worked tremendously hard to get the right mannerisms, stance and gestures of Dighe Ji by learning from the people who have been around him and that is extremely commendable.”
