In a small note, he also mentioned, “As actors, we all want/search for rare stories that have the potential to inspire. ‘India’s Most Wanted’ is one such story based on true events that will make every Indian proud. ‘India’s Most Wanted’ is our tribute to the valour of those who devote their lives to protecting ours.”
Raj Kumar also shared the same picture and captioned it, “A mission we are excited to share. India’s most wanted is now on floors. Mark your calendar on 24 May, 2019 for India’s Most Wanted.”
The film is reportedly about a secret mission that leads an arrest of a terrorist and it will be shot primarily in Nepal and Delhi. Arjun is expected to play the role of an intelligence officer who is on the chase. When the movie was announced, the makers said that the film is based on, ‘the capture of India’s most wanted without firing a single bullet.’
