Last year we saw many female actors make their impressive debuts in Bollywood films. Sara Ali Khan, Janhvi Kapoor, Radhika Madan all managed to appeal to the audience. However, there were not many male debutants. Amongst the new actors, Ishaan Khatter impressed everyone with his natural acting and screen presence in Beyond the Clouds and Dhadak. Ishaan impressed many with his acting skills in the two films. However, the actor who has been in talks with several filmmakers has not signed any new film yet. According to the latest reports, the actor has liked an idea which has been pitched to him a few weeks back.
According to a trade website, the film will be directed by Abhishek Kapoor whose last outing Kedarnath starring Sushant Singh Rajput and Sara Ali Khan was a hit. The portal reported that the film is going to be based on the recent Pulwama attacks and subsequent air strikes by the Indian Air Force in Balakot, POK.

The film in question is reportedly being produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali along with Abhishek and his wife Pragya Kapoor in association with T-Series Films and Mahavir Jain. We had earlier exclusively reported that Bhansali and Ishaan are in talks for a film.
However, there are no further details about the film and the filmmakers are expertly keeping everything under wraps. We had reported earlier that the producers had made a beeline to register rights on the film names pertaining to these attacks, and Bhansali managed to stake the claim on the film title.
