Mumbai, June 14 (IANS) Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar and Parineeti Chopra starrer 'The Great Indian Rescue' has blocked its release date. The movie will bow in theatres on October 5, 2023.
The film is based on a true life event of late Jaswant Singh Gill who led India's first coal mine rescue mission.
Gill was born in Sathiala, Amritsar, on November 22, 1939. He studied at Khalsa College, and was posted in Raniganj in 1989 when he engineered a special rescue capsule to save the lives of several miners trapped inside a flooded coal mine.
He received several awards for his brave feat and was the recipient of the "Sarvottam Jeevan Raksha Padak" by President Ramaswamy Venkataraman in 1991.
'The Great Indian Rescue', which was earlier titled 'Capsule Gill', produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh, Jackky Bhagnani and Ajay Kapoor, and is directed by Tinu Suresh Desai.
The much-feted "Masaan" won Richa Chadha wide acclaim but the actress says she does not identify with her character in the film because she is essentially a rebel.
Aiming to come close to its rivals like Amazon Prime and Hotstar in India, American video streaming giant Netflix on Wednesday unveiled a mobile subscription plan for India at Rs 199 per month.
Actress Parineeti Chopra has close to 50 million people following her digitally. She is now set to use her digital clout and stature as a fashion icon to raise awareness on social issues.
