Additionally, veteran actor Mukesh Khanna will lend his voice as the narrator, adding depth and context to the story.
The film’s soundtrack, crafted by composers Nikhil Kamath, Ravi Tripathi, and others, will draw from the rich tradition of Abhanga music. This score aims to blend classical and folk elements, enhancing the narrative’s emotional and philosophical themes.
Overall, Sant Tukaram seeks to transcend linguistic and regional boundaries, aiming to resonate with audiences across India, making it a celebration of faith and resilience.
