Red Chillies Entertainment churned out two
successful films recently in Gauri Shinde's
slice of life drama Dear Zindagi and Rahul
Dholakia's crime drama Raees. Their next
project is the biggest in terms of scale and it
is based on a remarkable achievement of
the Indian Army.
Pune Mirror reports that Red Chillies has
been undergoing extensive research, in
association with Azure Entertainment, on
Operation Khukri on which their next
production will be based. A celebration of
the unsung heroes of the Indian Army and
the Indian Air Force, the film will be
mounted on a huge budget and will be shot
in real locations in Africa.
Operation Khukri was launched back in
2000 in a tropical forest in Sierra Leone
which is situated in West Africa. Under the
leadership of Major (now Lt Col) Harinder
Sood, 120 able and dedicated IAF officers
were airlifted from New Delhi and flown to
Africa with a mission to rescue 223
peacekeepers of India who were sent to the
country by the United Nations in order to
aid the government in tackling
Revolutionary United Front (RUF), a
rebellious outfit.
These war films seem to be the order of the
day. Next month, Shah Rukh will do a cameo
in Kabir Khan's Tubelight, alongside Salman
Khan, which is yet another film with a war
backdrop. Similarly, the Battle of Saragarhi
has also inspired Ajay Devgn's Sons of
Sardar and an untitled war film starring
Akshay Kumar, to be jointly produced by
Salman Khan Films and Karan Johar's
Dharma Productions. Earlier this year, Vishal
Bhardwaj's war film Rangoon also released
but to a disastrous response at the box
office.
The star cast and title of Shah Rukh's
production have not been disclosed yet.
There is no word on whether he will play
the lead though he has effectively played a
soldier in Farah Khan's 2004 film Main Hoon
Na and the television show Fauji.
