Jammwal, best known for his “Commando” action film franchise, will also star in the film as an Indian intelligence officer deployed in the run up to the 1971 India-Pakistan war. Working from a real incident, the film is based on a story by Aditya Shastri and a screenplay from Storyhouse Films LLP.
Sankalp Reddy, who debuted with Indian national film award winning “Ghazi” that was also set during the 1971 war, will direct.“Some of the most interesting episodes in Indian history have inspired ‘IB 71.’ With this film, Action Hero Films pursues the endeavor to unravel a riveting story envisaged by gifted writers,” Jammwal said.
Reddy said: “ ‘IB 71’ is about what goes on before a triumph and a very different kind of heroism is at play in its story. These are the themes that I connected with when the story was narrated to me. I’m very happy that the producers have shown tremendous belief in my vision. This film is truly special for me.
