Apparently, the film revolves around a Kashmiri woman who is married to an army officer across the border who provides Indian intelligence with invaluable information during the 1971 Indo-Pak war. It is said that the film is based on Harinder S Sikka’s book ‘Calling Sehmat: A Novel’.

Well, it would be rather an unimaginable onscreen pairing for the viewers, but it would definitely be an interesting one to see them teaming up together. But, an official confirmation is still awaited from the actor and the makers.

This project will be jointly produced by Junglee Pictures and Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions and is likely to go on floors by next month. Watch this space for more updates.
