Kangana Ranaut took to Twitter to announce that the shoot for her upcoming film Tejas will commence in December. Along with the announcement, she posted a still from the film that shows her in full Air Force uniform, standing next to a Tejas aircraft.
Building the excitement for the movie, Kangana wrote, “Tejas to take-off this December! Proud to be part of this exhilarating story that is an ode to our brave airforce pilots!” She had also shared the first-look poster for the film in February.
The film is based on the Indian Air Force’s 2016 decision to include women in combat roles. “I hope we can help instil a sense of patriotism and pride in today’s youth with this movie,” Kangana had said in a statement in February.
The actress has been keeping busy. She is currently waiting for her next release Thalaiva, a biopic on former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa.
