‘Operation Sindoor’: Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, Bhushan Kumar team up for explosive film on India’s secret strikes inside Pakistan
Mumbai/IBNS: Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series and Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri’s I Am Buddha Productions have officially announced Operation Sindoor, which is based on the book Operation Sindoor: The Untold Story of India’s Deep Strikes Inside Pakistan by Lt Gen K.J.S. ‘Tiny’ Dhillon (Retd).
The film will be directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri.
The film draws inspiration from the codename of India’s targeted military strikes on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, marking a defining moment of strategic resolve, courage, and precision in India’s history.
It is also a cinematic response to the tragic massacre of innocent civilians, most of them tourists, in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, in 2025.
Significantly, this operation marked the first time in world history that a nuclear-armed nation carried out deep, precise strikes inside another nuclear-armed nation, decisively dismantling terror camps and exposing the limitations of nuclear deterrence as a shield for asymmetric warfare.

Speaking about the project, producer Bhushan Kumar said, “Some stories are not chosen, they choose you. Operation Sindoor is one such story—one that demands to be told with honesty, courage, and responsibility. This is not just a film. It is a revelation. When a nation goes through events of such magnitude, it becomes important to document them truthfully.”
Director-producer Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri added, “This is not just a film. It is a revelation. With Operation Sindoor, India has not just taken revenge for the Pahalgam terror attack and punished Pakistan, but it has also demonstrated its might in modern warfare.
"We have conducted extensive, ground-level research in collaboration with multiple wings of the Indian Armed Forces to understand not just what happened, but how and why it happened. What emerges is a reality far more complex, far more precise, and far more unsettling than what is available in the public domain."
"I have always believed in telling stories that are uncomfortable but necessary. My effort is to bring this story of courage, professionalism, and strategic clarity to audiences with authenticity, while also presenting it as an edge-of-the-seat cinematic experience.
"My intention is not to create noise, but to confront it—with facts, with clarity, and the magic of cinema.”
Operation Sindoor aims to bring to the screen a chapter of modern warfare that sits at the intersection of courage, strategy, and truth—not as spectacle, but as a statement.
Further details about the project are currently under wraps and will be announced soon.
