Director Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri announced his next film ‘The Vaccine War’ on Thursday on social media.
Taking to Instagram The Kashmir Files’ director said, “ANNOUNCEMENT: Presenting ‘THE VACCINE WAR’ – an incredible true story of a war that you didn’t know India fought. And won with its science, courage & great Indian values. It will release on Independence Day, 2023. In 11 languages. Please bless us. #TheVaccineWar.”
Meanwhile, the movie directed by Vivek is scheduled to release in the theatres on Independence day 2023.
Moreover, the announcement of the star cast is still awaited and the movie is based on a true story that will release in 11 languages.
After sharing the news on social media platforms fans showed their excitement and filled the comment section with emoticons.
“Brilliant. Much deserved. Our scientists, researchers, and country leadership fought on a war scale to deliver against all the naysayers, anti-India Lutyens intellectual lobby, and malicious propaganda by western media and pharma lobby. Extremely underrated achievement,” a fan commented.
“Wow! This looks really interesting, will ruffle many feathers the way The Kashmir Files did. All the best!” another fan said.
Talking about the movie director Agnihotri said, “When The Kashmir Files was postponed during the COVID lockdown, I started researching it. Then we started researching with the scientists of ICMR & NIV who made our vaccine possible. Their story of struggle and sacrifice was overwhelming and while researching we understood how these scientists fought a war waged against India not just by foreign agencies but even our own people. Yet, we won against superpowers by making the fastest, cheapest, and safest vaccine. I thought this story must be told so that every Indian can feel proud of their country.”
“This will be India’s first pure science film about a bio-war we had no idea about,” Agnihotri said.
However, there will be a big Bollywood clash between ‘The Vaccine War’ and John Abraham’s upcoming film ‘Tariq’.
