Directed by Reema Kagti, the film will be about India’s first Olympic medal as a free nation. It was won in Men’s Field hockey.

Produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani, the film will be hit the screens on Independence Day, 2018. But we are sure it will be worth the wait.
Farhan, Ritesh and Reema can’t wait to start to work on the project.
