Mission Majnu, a film by Shantanu Bagchi, is based on actual incidents that occurred in the 1970s. The trailer begins with a Parmeet Sethi-played character pleading with the prime minister of India to locate the nuclear facility in Pakistan immediately. He advises employing a covert operative to acquire information. Sidharth portrays the “simple” tailor who travels to and from important locations to inform India. This important project is known as “Mission Majnu.”

As part of Sidharth’s cover story, Rashmika Mandanna plays the role of his wife in the movie. His persona seems to become a little too at ease while operating covertly. The preview also shows the physical lengths he must take to locate the facility, including risking his life to obtain the crucial details.

Mission Majnu, which also stars Sharib Hashmi and Kumud Mishra, was written by Sumit Batheja, Parveez Shaikh, and Aseem Arrora. In this historical play, Rashmika and Sidharth are matched for the first time. While the rest of the picture about discovering the facility lacks the apparent drama required for a high-stakes subject like this, the stunts and action in the second half feel a bit over the top. The Netflix version of Mission Majnu will debut on January 20, 2023.

When the movie was first revealed in 2020, producer Ronnie Screwvala had previously remarked, “There are 1000s of heroes who work behind the scenes to safeguard the interest of our country from other terror units and rogue nations. Their work often goes unnoticed and Mission Majnu is an attempt to bring their sacrifices and efforts to the forefront. Mission Majnu is a thrilling tale about one of the most daring and audacious operations in the history of RAW.”
