Ankita Lokhande, who is all set to portray Yamunabai in `Swatantrya Veer Savarkar`, got candid about her character and what made her say "yes" to this role. She told ANI, "The character is such that who represents every Indian woman. A strong character who has supported her husband a lot in everything. Even when she wasn`t physically present there, her husband was in the Kala Pani. And actually, Yamunabai is such a character who represents what a housewife can do when something happens to her family." Lokhande plays the character of Yamunabai Savarkar, the wife of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar who will be portrayed by her co-star, Randeep Hooda.
She added, "I read about Veer Savarkar but never knew so much about Yamunabai. But when you play such characters, you understand their entire journey. How they lived, what their character was like. She was like an unsung hero. If her husband was fighting at the Kala Pani she was fighting a battle outside for her family. There was an incident in the film when her son died and her husband was not aware of it. But the way she handles everything is incredible. It is all about commitment."
