This 2 hour 41 minute film is based on real-life terror attack, will keep you on edge until the last scene, name is…, lead actors are…

A recent addition to the OTT landscape has stirred conversations and revived haunting memories from two decades ago. Set against a backdrop of snow-laden landscapes and political unrest, the film recounts a dark chapter in Indian history, an incident from 2001 that left the entire nation shaken. Without resorting to sensationalism, it revisits a time when chaos and fear gripped the Kashmir Valley. The lead actor in this film is someone we have admired for his unbeatable roles, but this became quite challenging and a different kind of role in a never-seen-before avatar.

2025’s Action-Drama Ground Zero

Here we are talking about recently released film ‘Ground Zero’, which is based on true events, set in Kashmir and is based on the search for the mastermind behind the 2001 Indian Parliament attack conspiracy. It shows the two-year-long operation of BSF officer Narendra Nath Dhar Dubey and his team, which brings out the seriousness and dangers of the mission. The film gives a platform to the courage, resourcefulness and sacrifice of the soldiers engaged in the fight against terrorism. It shows how real-life heroes, who stay away from the glare of the camera, sacrifice their lives to protect the country.

Emraan Hashmi is in the lead role in ‘Ground Zero’, where he is seen as a serious and passionate officer. Along with him, talented actors like Sai Tamhankar, Zoya Hussain and Mukesh Tiwari are also in the main roles. The reality and depth of emotions are clearly visible in everyone’s acting. This film is directed by Tejas Prabha Vijay Devaskar, whose vision and style give it a strong narrative. At the same time, Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar have produced it under the banner of Excel Entertainment, who are already known for giving many path-breaking films.
