The film will narrate the story of the brave warriors of the Indian Army that lead their lives in Siachen. The Siachen glacier is known to be one of the coldest regions in the Himalayas. It is very close to where the Line of Control between India and Pakistan ends. The weather conditions there are known to be extreme and the soldiers have to lead their lives and fight their battles despite those conditions.
Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari also took to her social media to share this news. Alongside the picture, she wrote, “Blessed that we are able to tell stories of unsung heroes of our beloved country India to the world. Proud to be a part of @_sanjayshetty ‘s dream debut film #thesiachenwarriors (working title) written by @pglens #Gautamved produced by @niteshtiwari22 (sic).”
The duo has already teamed up for another project. They are all set to direct the biopic of Infosys founders Sudha Murthy and Narayana Murthy. It was announced that the film will roll out in 2020.
