New Delhi: Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri's upcoming film 'The Vaccine War' has always been in the headlines ever since its announcement. As the film has created a lot of chatter about the pathbreaking story, the filmmaker has also kept the audience's excitement at the edge by bringing the progress of its shooting schedules. And now good news for the fans has arrived as the film has wrapped up its final schedule.

Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri has always brought his vision of creating a change in society and bringing reality to the audience on the screens, and ‘The Vaccine War’ is one such project from the filmmaker that will open many stories about the pandemic era. The filmmaker has started his journey of structuring the film by commencing the shoot in  Lucknow. With his sheer belief in the story, he shot the film around different places and now the film has been wrapped in Hyderabad.

Producer and actor Pallavi Joshi says, "The Vaccine War is unlike any other film that we have ever done under 'I Am Buddha' productions. Science thriller is a very new genre and it's a very difficult genre but we decided to accept the challenge. I think 100℅ marks should go to Vivek for accepting this challenge of writing and directing this film.” 

Veteran names like Nana Patekar, Pallavi Joshi, and Anupam Kher while the new age sensation Kantara actress Sapthami Gowda is also a part of the film. She added, “All the actors - Nana Patekar, Nivedita Bhattacharya, Sapthami Gowda, Girija Oak, Yagya Turlapathi and myself, we found ourselves in completely alien territory because the scientific terminologies that we had to use in his film were so difficult and something that we had never heard of in life.”

She continued, “So saying them became a challenge for us in the beginning but within a week I think we all found the scientist within us and we were speaking all the scientific terminologies as if we were born speaking them. It was a great sight to see all of us transform into very confident scientists and after the end of the shoot, we were all only discussing science which was a very hilarious thing to happen because until before the film began none of us knew any ABC about science whatsoever.”

Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri has shared before that it took around one year to research the subject and present the correct facts to the audience. The story of the film is written on 3200 pages and 82 people worked on the story day and night. For conducting efficient research, the team met the real scientists and people who developed the vaccine. The film is all about, how difficult and pressure it is for Indian scientists always from foreign countries and the medical world overall.

‘The Vaccine War’ is scheduled to release on 15th August 2023, Independence Day, and interestingly it will be released in 10 plus languages including Hindi, English, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Bhojpuri, Punjabi, Gujarati, Marathi, and Bengali.
