Indian war drama Shershaah will land on Amazon Prime Video August 12. The movie, which lands ahead of the 74th annual celebration of India’s Independence Day, spotlights the heroic tale of Captain Vikram Batra at the Kargil War of 1999.
Produced by Dharma Productions and Kaash Entertainment, the Hindi-language biopic represents the latest move by the streaming giant to bolster its repertoire of Indian originals.
Sidharth Malhotra stars as the Param Vir Chakra awardee Captain Vikram Batra, the national hero who laid down his life recapturing Indian territories from the Pakistani army, during the 1999 conflict. “For me becoming Shershaah is like a dream come true,” says the star.
Speaking on his Instagram account, Sidharth declared that out of all his films, Shershaah required the greatest commitment of all his films to date, both physical and mental.
