On Thursday, Viacom18 announced that the Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone-starrer Fighter will be India’s ‘first aerial action franchise’. Described as a ‘high-octane cinematic spectacle’, Siddharth Anand’s directorial venture ‘salutes the valour, sacrifice and patriotism’ of our armed forces. “Being a Top Gun [1986] fan, I have been looking for a script for years that explores aerial action and has a story rooted in India. Siddharth understands this genre and brings a unique flair to his films. I am excited to collaborate with him in building this franchise,” says Ajit Andhare of Viacom18. Anand, who considers Fighter a dream project, adds, “We aim to put Indian films on the map for action-loving global theatrical audiences, who crave for spectacle and the big screen experience.” Fighter will be shot at locations across the world.
