We were amongst the first ones to report that John Abraham will be bringing one of nation’s greatest covert missions at the time to the big screen, which was the Pokhran-II Nuclear Test.

Now, just about yesterday, Abraham has commenced shooting for the same. The film is titled “Parmanu – The Story Of Pokhran”

Talking about the film, Abraham said “The road to Pokhran has been paved. It’s time to embark on a journey to revisit the mission that changed the place of India on the world map & turning the course modern India’s position in the world as a strong Nuclear state.”

The film will take the audience back to the time when India pulled off the greatest nuclear espionage the world witnessed in 1998 with the help of a bunch of army men, scientists, engineers and satellite experts.

The film will feature Abraham and Diana Penty in lead roles, along with Boman Irani who plays a very pivotal role. The writers of the film are the people who wrote Neerja.
