Directed by Vishnuvaradhan, ‘Shershaah’ is based on the life of Param Vir Chakra awardee Vikram Batra, who laid down his life in the service of the nation while recapturing Indian territories from Pakistani intruders during the Kargil War in 1999.

In the film, Sidharth has portrayed two very distinct looks to showcase the younger phase of Vikram and his army phase, transforming himself completely to get the looks right. Apart from that, the actor will also be seen playing the role of Vikram’s twin brother Vishal Batra in the film.
Further extending the celebration of ‘Shershaah’ Kiara a.k.a Dimple shared a post for Vikram (Sidharth Malhotra) on her Insta story.
