Sooraj Pancholi's upcoming film is the special journey of Satellite Shankar, a soldier who connects India. The movie follows Sooraj Pancholi, who plays an army officer, and his journey of self-discovery while exploring India's beauty and diversity. The makers of the film dropped the trailer today, October 17.
He says, "I have always wanted to play a soldier in a classic war or an action film. But this is not a war film, it's not an action film, it's a drama. The movie is about the life of every soldier - of what they see and feel in personal life. It's not about a soldier's life at the base camp. It is about a soldier, who is on leave and is going to meet his mother. It's what he faces through the journey while travelling through India. So, it is looking at India from a soldier's point of view.''
