Ammy Virk, after establishing his stardom in Punjabi cinema, will become a part of the Hindi film industry with the role of a squadron leader and a fighter pilot.

Bhuj: The Pride of India celebrates the courage of the 300 women of Madhapur in Gujarat, who played a pivotal part in India's victory in the 1971 Indo-Pak war. It tells the story of how these women got together to repair the only runway in Bhuj that had been destroyed during the war.

Directed by Abhishek Dudhaiya, the film is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Vajir Singh, Ginny Khanuja, Abhishek Dudhaiya and Kumar Mangat Pathak under the banners of T-Series and Select Media Holdings LLP.
