The movie, which hit the big screens on January 11, is based on the 2016 Indian Army's surgical strikes and showcases the instances of what went down during the Indian army's surgical strikes in Pakistan following the attacks in Jammu and Kashmir's Uri town. The film witnessed a wonderful start with the military drama opening with a box office collection of Rs. 8.20 crore, according to film critic Taran Adarsh. The 2016 surgical strike was initiated on September 29 after four militants attacked the Indian army at Uri on September 18 and killed 19 unarmed soldiers. The 'Raazi' star, who plays the role of an army officer in the Aditya Dhar directorial, shows off his action avatar with hard-hitting dialogues, the spirit of patriotism and daring stunts, full of intensity and aggression. Apart from Vicky, the film also stars Paresh Rawal as National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and Yami Gautam as a no-nonsense interrogation officer. The movie, which is being produced by Ronnie Screwvala, also features Kirti Kulhari and Mohit Raina in pivotal roles. With powerful sound effects and spectacular visual effects, the film sure promises a great cinematic experience!
