Filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker, whose movies are known to have detailed sets, is getting the Shaniwar Wada fort - the seat of the Peshwa empire - recreated for his upcoming period film Panipat. Gowariker on Thursday shared a photograph of the 'bhoomi pujan' which took place on Akshaya Tritiya on Wednesday. "Construction began on the auspicious day of Akshaya Tritiya! Recreation of the 'Shaniwar Wada' to original scale!" Gowariker captioned the image.
