# Ajay Devgn steps in to reshoot ‘Ranger’ climax for bigger scale 2026-08-21T04:17:23+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Ajay Devgn is reportedly overseeing a reshoot of the climax of his upcoming adventure drama 'Ranger' at Golden Tobacco Studio in Vile Parle. Director Jagan Shakti asked the actor to direct a revised version of the high-octane action sequence, feeling the original lacked scale and impact. Devgn, along with action director Kevin Kumar, began work on the new block last week. The film, set against wildlife conservation, stars Devgn as a forest officer protecting tigers. His character clashes with poachers led by Sanjay Dutt. The climax will feature vehicle chases, gun fights, and hand-to-hand combat. A massive jungle set has been built at the studio for the confrontation. After the climax, Devgn and Tamannaah Bhatia are scheduled to shoot a special dance number, after which principal photography is expected to conclude. ## Indian Opinion Analysis This is not the first time Devgn has taken charge of action reshoots for his own projects. In Maa (2025), he similarly reworked key action sequences featuring Kajol, suggesting a growing trend of the actor-star calling creative shots beyond acting. The extra investment in the climax, a reshoot at a large studio set, indicates the producers are betting heavily on action spectacle to draw crowds. The next milestone to watch is the completion of the special song shoot, which will signal that the film has wrapped principal photography and can move into post-production. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Straight report on production updates, citing the director's request and quoting a Mid Day source without editorialising.
