A day after Ishaan Khatter announced his new film, his Dhadak co-star Janhvi Kapoor announced hers.
Janhvi will play the title role in Gunjan Saxena, which tells the story of the flight officer who made history when she flew into a combat zone during the Kargil war, a feat never attempted by a lady officer in the Indian Air Force before.
Directed by first-timer Sharan Sharma, the film will co-star Pankaj Tripathi, Neena Gupta, Angad Bedi, Vineet Kumar and Manav Vij.
It will be produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions.
'She was told ki ladkiyan pilot nahin banti...but she stood her ground and wanted to fly! Gunjan Saxena,' Karan Johar captioned the poster.
'With unabashed courage & bravery, she made her domain in a man's world.'
'Her pillar of strength - her father. He gave her the wings to fly! Gunjan Saxena - #TheKargilGirl, releasing on 13th March, 2020.'
Dharma Productions have also posted a picture of the real Gunjan Saxena and written, 'Dharma production is making 'We are proud to be telling the true story of Flight Lt. Gunjan Saxena, India's first Air Force woman officer who went to war - on the big screen.'
