What a birthday treat or should we say birthday return gift like we used to get it during childhood birthday parties. We are saying this because today, the actor who made his debut with Student Of Year has now become a captain, well, we are talking about the handsome hunk Sidharth Malhotra who has ringed in his 35th birthday today. To mark this special day, he has shared the first look posters of his upcoming film, Shershaah. The actor will be essaying the role of Captain Vikram Batra. “Based on the untold true story of Captain Vikram Batra (PVC). His code name…” is written on the posters and we are guessing his code name is SHERSHAAH.
While sharing the pictures on his handle, he wrote, “An absolute honor to be able to paint the big screen with the shades of bravery & sacrifice. Paying an ode to the journey of Captain Vikram Batra (PVC) and bringing the UNTOLD TRUE STORY with #Shershaah. Releasing 3rd July, 2020.” Just a while ago, filmmaker Karan Johar took to his social media handle and shared the posters of his protégé. He wrote, “We bow our heads in respect & pay an ode to the brave journey of the Kargil War hero through our film. Presenting @SidMalhotra in the UNTOLD TRUE STORY of Captain Vikram Batra (PVC) - #Shershaah. Releasing 3rd July, 2020. @Advani_Kiara @vishnu_dir @apoorvamehta18.”
Earlier, Sid had also shared a video of Captain Vikram Batra on his birthday anniversary, speaking the valour of Shershaah. He wrote, “Valour of Shershaah made him immortal. Happy birthday Shershaah, respect and salute to Captain Vikram Batra. Jai Hind.”
Shershaah also stars Kiara Advani in the lead role. Directed by Vishnu Varadhan, the film is slated to release on July 3, 2020.
