Indian Cinema has consistently educated audiences about the courageous efforts of our defence forces through movies and shows. From films like ‘Border’, ‘LOC’, ‘Shershaah’, ‘Uri’, ‘Singham’, and ‘Sooryavanshi’, there are numerous examples of how filmmakers have utilised cinema to depict the bravery exhibited when in the line of duty. These stories are often based on real-life personalities, true incidents, and sometimes even fictional tales. These narratives have left a lasting impression on the minds of the audience and have also achieved remarkable success at the box office or garnered extensive viewership digitally.
Let’s quickly explore some of the upcoming films and shows that will once again offer us a glimpse into the lives of our defence forces while on duty.
Sidharth Malhotra (‘Yodha’, ‘Indian Police Force’)
After impressing audiences with his outstanding performances as Captain Vikram Batra in ‘Shershaah’ and an intelligent spy Amandeep Singh in ‘Mission Majnu’, Sidharth Malhotra is gearing up for the release of his next film, ‘Yodha’, the first action film in the franchise headlined by Sidharth Malhotra. The actor will once again be seen in his much-loved, action-packed avatar as he tackles an aeroplane hijack. Also, the actor has joined Rohit Shetty’s highly anticipated cop universe, taking on the role of a police officer in the upcoming series ‘Indian Police Force’. Sidharth Malhotra’s first look from the series has caused quite a sensation, building excitement for the show.
Vicky Kaushal (‘Sam Bahadur’)
Vicky Kaushal made a mark playing a soldier in ‘Uri’. Now, all eyes are on him for his performance in ‘Sam Bahadur’, based on the life of Sam Manekshaw, who served as the Chief of the Army Staff of the Indian Army during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971.
Ajay Devgn (‘Singham Again’)
When we think of Ajay Devgn, it reminds us of the significant roles he has portrayed, showcasing unsung warriors in Indian history and larger-than-life fictional characters in films like ‘Bhagat Singh’, ‘Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior’, ‘Singham’, ‘Gangaajal’, among others. His ‘Singham’ franchise has gained immense popularity among all age groups and is still synonymous with the best on-screen cop.
