Mohenjo Daro to release on August 12

Actor Hrithik Roshan's much awaited film "Mohenjo Daro" will hit the screens on August 12. The 42-year-old "Bang Bang" star took to Twitter to announce the release date as well as wrap on the Ashutosh Gowariker-directed project. "Journeys that test strength of character are ones you should be most PROUD OF! It's a WRAP! #MohenjoDaro @hegdepooja," Hrithik tweeted.

The actor also shared a picture of himself holding a clap board flashing the release date with the "Lagaan" filmmaker in the background. Also starring in the venture are debutant Pooja Hegde and veteran actor Kabir Bedi. The movie is an epic adventure-romance set in the ancient city of Mohenjo-daro, Sindh, Pakistan in the era of the Indus Valley civilisation that dates back to 2600BC. The movie marks Gowarikers second collaboration with Hrithik after the 2008 film "Jodhaa Akbar".
