'Pippa', produced by RSVP and Roy Kapur Films, is now set to release in theatres on December 2, 2022 -- a week earlier than previously announced.
`Pippa` is based on `The Burning Chaffees` written by Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta. The first-of-its-kind war tank film brings to life the Indo-Pak war of 1971 that led to the liberation and birth of Bangladesh.
Ishaan will be seen essaying the role of the young brigadier, who played a vital role in fighting the war on the eastern front as a part of the 45th Cavalry tank squadron.
In a statement released by makes, director Raja Krishna Menon said: "On our 75th Independence day, we are very excited to share with all of you a teaser of 'PIPPA'. It's a small glimpse into the film we have been working on and carefully nurturing."
Producer Ronnie Screwvala says, "'PIPPA' set in 1971 against the backdrop of one of the largest refugee migrations in modern history that then led to the liberation and formation of a Country is a story that must be told and we can't wait to unravel the scale of this epic movie to audiences worldwide on 2nd December 2022"
"The Bangladesh Liberation War is often heralded as the only `just war` in history because it was fought to save lives and to free a nation. We are honoured to bring audiences this inspiring story of the birth of Bangladesh, through the incredible journey of an Indian family on the frontlines," Producer Siddharth Roy Kapur added.
