Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran retells the story of India’s journey on becoming a nuclear power. Based on the 1998 nuclear tests in the city of Pokhran, the story follows many real life events that are not well known.
In an interview, John Abraham said, “Much in line with India’s journey to becoming a nuclear power, our film’s journey to its release has also had its own ups and downs! However, it is perhaps a befitting tribute to the true heroes of our nuclear programme — our army and our scientists, that Parmanu is releasing in the same month as we are celebrating 20 years of Operation Shakti – India’s nuclear test explosions in Pokhran in May 1998.”
