Imagine a father suffering from dementia, left behind by his own family during a pilgrimage. It’s more than just being abandoned, it’s a painful reminder of how easily some people turn away from their duties. Directed by Anil Sharma, the filmmaker behind Gadar 2 and Apne, comes Vanvaas, a touching family drama that speaks to audiences of all ages. The Zee Bollywood Premiere of Vanvaas is coming on 10th December, Wednesday at 9PM. With its strong emotional heart and relatable storyline, the film offers something meaningful for everyone, making it perfect for a family viewing.

Vanvaas is an emotional journey that celebrates the beauty of relationships. At the heart of the film is Nana Patekar, whose powerful performance reminds us why he remains one of the finest actors of our time. His intensity and authenticity breathe life into every scene. After Gadar 2, the hit jodi of Utkarsh and Simrat reunite in Vanvaas, bringing a breeze of freshness to their characters. Utkarsh Sharma adds sincerity and charm, while Simrat Kaur delivers a graceful, heartfelt performance. The film beautifully captures the essence of family bonds, love, and sacrifice, making it deeply relatable and emotionally stirring.

Director Anil Sharma expressed, "I wanted to make a film that resonates with all age groups, speaks to all generations and brings families together. Vanvaas is about love, values and the emotional bonds that define us. In today’s world, a 70/80 year old man is feeling like vanvaasi at his home, has nobody to talk to, the situation of society has become like this. Many elders feel like outsiders in their own homes, this is the reality we often overlook. There is a saying, Pita ka karm hai bachcho ko palna, bachcho ka dharm hai maa pita ko samhalna and I completely agree with it. Vanvaas is the story of an abandoned father and an orphaned son finding family in each other. With Mithoon’s soulful music that elevates the emotions while Nana Sir and Utkarsh’s chemistry brings the story to life. When I decided to make Vanvaas, I knew I would only do it with Nana Sir, his presence gives it a depth no one else could. This film is an extension of my dream to create family-centric films."

Talking about the Premiere, Nana Patekar said, "Vanvaas is a reflection of our times. Families today face so many unspoken struggles like distance, misunderstandings, and a lack of time for each other. At its heart, the film is about parents and how they keep doing things for us selflessly expecting nothing in return. It captures the deep emotion of love and sacrifice. As we grow older, we tend to forget many things, it’s a natural part of life. But what we should never forget is the importance of family. No matter what happens, family remains our strongest support system. I believe audiences will see themselves in this story and leave with a renewed appreciation for the bonds they share with their family and loved ones."

Speaking about the film, Utkarsh Sharma shared, "Vanvaas is a film that will make you reflect on your relationships and the bonds that hold us together. It beautifully captures the essence of family love, sacrifice, and togetherness in a way that resonates with all generations. I was very excited to be part of this project because I have been a fan of Nana Patekar’s films for a long time whose dedication and depth brought so much emotion to the film. Sharing the screen with him was an incredible learning experience. In a time when action thrillers dominate, Vanvaas is a refreshing and heartfelt reminder of the power of family".

Adding to the excitement, Simrat Kaur said, "What drew me to Vanvaas was its emotional depth and how beautifully it portrays the challenges and sacrifices that come with family bonds. It’s a film that will make you laugh, cry and most importantly, cherish the people around you. What I love is that it’s not just about elders - it also speaks to the youth, showing how every generation plays a role in keeping a family together.”
