Film will be made on India's missile man, APJ Abdul Kalam, Dhanush will play an important role

A biopic is being made on India's 11th President and missile man, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. Om Raut, a National Award-winning director, will direct the film. National award-winning superstar Dhanush will play the lead role.

Abhishek Agarwal is producing the film. Saivin Quadras has written it. Veteran actor Dhanush is playing the role of Dr. Kalam.

The makers of the film announced the film at the Cannes Film Festival. When Om Raut and Dhanush met to discuss the film, they realized that they were making the biggest film of their lives together.

Raut said in a statement, 'In an era lacking true statesmen, Kalam stood above politics and parochialism. He was a man who was known for the power of education and indigenous innovation. Bringing his story to the screen is an artistic challenge and a moral and cultural responsibility. This is a story that is inspiring for the global youth and especially the youth of the South.'

Producer Abhishek Agarwal said about the film, 'We are excited to bring the life of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam to the big screen. This is an emotional moment for us. I feel honored to collaborate with Indian cinema legends Om Raut and Dhanush. We have been fortunate to tell this story, and each one of us is trying to bring alive the journey of the true Bharat Ratna Kalam ji. This is one of the most prestigious projects of Indian cinema.'

Born on 15 October 1931, Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam was the President of India for 5 years. Dr. Kalam's life, who rose from Rameswaram to Rashtrapati Bhavan, is a role model for the people. Known as the 'Missile Man of India', he rose from humble beginnings to become an aerospace scientist and finally the people's President. He used to say that 'no matter what the circumstances in life, once you decide to fulfill your dreams, you do it.'
