T-Series and Ellipsis Entertainment have come together to create a film based on the 1971 bombing of the Karachi harbour. Makers believe that this will be an epic spectacle on the ingenious masterminding of the biggest ever offensive operation by the Indian Navy, one of the most potent maritime forces in the world.

Provisionally titled Navy Day, the film will showcase the audacious attack launched on the Karachi harbour during the 1971 Indo-Pakistan war and its aftermath. India proudly observes its Navy Day on December 4, 2019, to celebrate the fierce operation, which is unparalleled in the annals of military history.

Talking about the same, Bhushan Kumar from T-Series, said “The operation was one of the most successful in modern naval history after World War II. Our Navy suffered no losses and caused heavy casualties on the enemy side. T-Series and Ellipsis look forward to bringing to life this extraordinary tale of strategy, thrill, and bravery.”

Tanuj Garg, Atul Kasbekar and Swati Iyer Chawla added, “Navy Day will be one of Ellipsis’ most ambitious films in terms of size and scale. Together, with our friends at T-Series, we look forward to working with Razneesh, yet another doyen of Indian advertising, after Ram Madhvani (Neerja) and Suresh Triveni (Tumhari Sulu).”

Navy Day will be directed by Razneesh Ghai, a leading and renowned name in the Indian advertising industry. Development is in progress and principal photography will commence next year. The film will be produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Tanuj Garg, Atul Kasbekar, Swati Iyer Chawla and Asylum Films.
