Scheduled for release on Friday, October 6, 2023, and produced by Pooja Entertainment, this movie marks Akshay Kumar's final cinematic venture for the year 2023, following his earlier films Selfiee and the recent blockbuster OMG 2.
After the success of OMG 2, where audiences applauded Akshay Kumar's portrayal of Lord Shiva and praised his choice of socially relevant scripts, the actor is set to deliver yet another impactful story to the fans. This time, he portrays the unsung hero, Late Jaswant Singh Gill, on the big screen. The film narrates the awe-inspiring tale of Jaswant Singh Gill's bravery and his daring rescue mission, which involved saving 65 coal miners.

The film sheds light on the heroic deeds of Late Sardar Jaswant Singh Gill, who orchestrated the largest coal mine mission in history. His innovation, a steel capsule used to rescue the trapped miners, earned him accolades, including recognition in the World Book of Records and the Limca Book of Records.
