What happens
Fighter is a 2024 Indian Hindi-language aerial action film directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by his production company Marflix Pictures and Viacom18 Studios. It stars Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover, and Akshay Oberoi. The first instalment of a planned aerial action franchise, the film depicts a series of military incidents between India and Pakistan in 2019, covering the Pulwama attack, the 2019 Balakot airstrike, and the India–Pakistan border skirmishes. Announced in January 2021, it is Anand's first production venture and third collaboration with Roshan after Bang Bang! (2014) and War (2019). Principal photography began in November 2022, and took place across Assam, Hyderabad, Jammu and Kashmir, and Mumbai. Real-life Indian Air Force personnel were involved in the film's production. The soundtrack was composed by Vishal–Shekhar, with a film score by Sanchit Balhara and Ankit Balhara. The visual effects were handled by DNEG. Fighter was theatrically released on 25 January 2024, coinciding with the Indian Republic Day weekend. It received mixed-to-positive reviews from critics, and grossed ₹344.46 crore (US$36 million) worldwide to emerge as the eighth highest-grossing Indian film of 2024 and fourth highest-grossing Hindi film of 2024.
