Akshay Kumar Pays Tribute To Real-Life Hero Jaswant Singh Gill On Engineer's Day

On Engineer's Day, Akshay Kumar posts a photo of Jaswant Singh Gill. The actor will portray him in 'Mission Raniganj.'

New Delhi: Engineer's Day holds special significance for those who appreciate the brilliance and dedication of engineers who work tirelessly to shape our world. This Engineer's Day, Akshay Kumar, known for portraying unsung heroes on screen, took a moment to pay tribute to both a real-life saviour and his on-screen character, Jaswant Gill, from his upcoming rescue thriller 'Mission Raniganj.'

In his trademark humorous style, Akshay shared an image of the late Mr Jaswant Gill, who inspired his character in the film. The image captured a young Jaswant Gill in 1961, standing proudly outside his ISM college, where he pursued Mining Engineering.

In the caption, Akshay wrote: “Happy #Engineers Day. I could never even imagine myself studying hard to be an engineer. But then I got an opportunity to play a brave, intelligent engineer like Jaswant Singh Gill ji in #MissionRaniganj. माँ बाप की इच्छा पूरी हो गई (parents' wish fulfilled) #RealHero”

Jaswant Gill's story is both inspiring and heroic. Not only was he an engineer by profession, but he also played a crucial role in saving lives during the Raniganj mishap. 

Starring Akshay Kumar, Parineeti Chopra, Kumud Mishra, Pavan Malhotra, Ravi Kishan, Varun Badola, Dibyendu Bhattacharya and others, ‘Mission Raniganj’ is an ode to resilience and determination. The film also marks Tinu Suresh Desai's next thriller after ‘Rustom’, which won him massive critical and commercial acclaim.

Produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Jackky Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh and Ajay Kapoor, ‘Mission Raniganj' is directed by Tinu Suresh Desai. The coal mine accident that shook the nation and the world, and the relentless efforts of the rescue team led by Jaswant Singh Gill, will be released in theatres on October 6th, 2023.
