Some stories are too powerful to remain untold. One such inspiring tale is that of Havildar Murali Naik, the courageous soldier who laid down his life during Operation Sindoor. His valor and sacrifice will now be immortalized on the big screen with a Pan-India biopic, officially announced today in a heartfelt ceremony attended by his family.
The prestigious project marks the first production of Vishan Film Factory, with K Suresh Babu producing. Rising actor Gautham Krishna takes on the challenging role of portraying Havildar Naik, bringing his story of bravery and sacrifice to audiences nationwide. The film carries the evocative motto: “Balidaan Param Dharma” (Sacrifice is the highest duty).
A powerful first-look poster was also unveiled, depicting Gautham Krishna in full military uniform amidst the chaos of war — soldiers rallying beside him, a tank charging forward, and a fighter jet soaring above — symbolizing the spirit of a true warrior.
Hailing from Kallitanda village, Havildar Murali Naik epitomized courage and devotion to duty. His story, already etched in the hearts of his people, is now set to inspire millions through cinema.
The film will release in all South Indian languages and Hindi, ensuring that the legacy of Havildar Naik resonates across the nation.
