Bollywood is all set to make a film on Indian Air Force attack at JeM camp in Pakistan. According to report by a news daily, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Abhishek Kapoor are on board and talking to T-Series’ honcho Bhushan Kumar to give life to the story of bravery on screen. The movie will cover the entire incident which happened during the strike.
As reported by Mumbai Mirror, the project will be helmed by Abhishek Kapoor who helmed the film Kedarnath that received mixed responses from the audience. A source close to the development told the daily that the film will also focus on how the entire nation turned united for India’s fight against terrorism. It will also show Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman‘s journey of returning to India safely after he had to eject himself from his plane and land in Pakistan.
The daily quoted the source saying, “This project is our small way of saluting our armed forces and their families,” and “several A-list actors have shown interest in the film.”
The reporter further read, “It will be our tribute to the nation. After the gutless terror attack in Pulwama, the IAF surgical strike at Balakot was a well-planned, 100 per cent successful operation which hit the enemy targets with precision. It is an honour to bring this story on the big screen so that we, as Indians, can revel in our national pride.”
