Ranjha Vikram Singh Returns to Film Production with Devotional Drama ‘Mangalmay Salasar’

After stepping away from film production for several years, actor-filmmaker Ranjha Vikram Singh is set to return to the big screen with a new devotional project, ‘Mangalmay Salasar.’ The film brings him together with writer-director Aryan Saxena, who will handle the story, screenplay and direction.

The announcement marks a significant moment for Singh, who has chosen a faith-based narrative to mark his comeback - a space he has long been associated with through his earlier work in purpose-driven cinema.

A Story Rooted in Devotion and History

Set in 18th-century Rajasthan, ‘Mangalmay Salasar’ traces the life and spiritual journey of Baba Mohan Das Ji, a figure remembered for his unwavering devotion and penance in worship of Lord Hanuman. The film aims to recreate the period’s historical texture while placing the emotional core of Baba Mohan Das Ji’s faith at its centre.

Devotional and faith-based cinema has found a steady audience in India in recent years, with stories drawing on regional history and religious reverence striking a chord with viewers across age groups. ‘Mangalmay Salasar’ appears positioned to tap into that same sentiment, blending spiritual storytelling with a historical backdrop.

Director Aryan Saxena’s Vision

For Aryan Saxena, the project is an opportunity to present a well-known spiritual legacy through a contemporary cinematic lens. Speaking about his approach, Saxena has indicated that the film will lean on grand visual presentation, emotional storytelling and historical authenticity to bring Baba Mohan Das Ji’s story to a new generation of viewers.

What Lies Ahead

With Ranjha Vikram Singh’s return to production and Aryan Saxena steering the creative vision, ‘Mangalmay Salasar’ is being positioned as more than a conventional devotional drama - it is being pitched as a cinematic tribute to faith itself. Further details regarding the cast, shooting schedule and release timeline are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
