Filmmaker Onir is set to direct a series on the 2019 Pulwama terror attack, in which 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel were killed by a Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist.


Titled Pulwama Key No. 1026, the eight-episodic SonyLIV series is based on author and journalist Rahul Pandita’s book, The Lover Boy of Bahawalpur.


The CRPF personnel were killed when a Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist rammed an explosives-laden vehicle into their bus on February 14, 2019. “To pay homage to the brave hearts and the NIA team who painstakingly investigated the attack, SonyLIV brings the never-seen-before story with Pulwama Key No 1026, helmed by National Award -winning director — Onir. The series is a tribute to all those martyrs whose dreams were blown to smithereens the minute the suicide bomber’s car hit the bus,” a statement from the makers read. Onir is on board as the director and showrunner of the series.
