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.
YouTube sensation Lilly Singh wants a 'Bollywood' touch to her late night show, and says she would like to host stars like Ranveer Singh, Priyanka Chopra and Shah Rukh Khan on "A Little Late with Lilly Singh".
National Award-winning actress and filmmaker Konkona Sen Sharma says she loves to watch and share films at film festivals because she feels the audience comprises pure movielovers and she belongs to that "moviewatching" community.
The actress says the film does not intend to make fun of dark skin. Rather, it tries to break the bias or obsession that people have with fair skin in India.
Actor Varun Sharma, who became popular as Choocha in the "Fukrey" films and Sexa in "Chhichhore", recently turned wedding planner for a close friend, and planned plastic-free festivities.
Actor Aparshakti Khurana says working on "Kanpuriye" took him back to his days of struggle, when he was trying to find his way with the fear of an uncertain future looming over his head.
Actress Rashami Desai is already locked in the "Bigg Boss" house and her rumoured beau Arhaan Khan is expected to join her soon as a wild-card contestant in the house of "Bigg Boss 13".
