List of 5 Best Bollywood Movies Based on Indian Army/War Stories

  1. Shershah

Shershah is a Bollywood film based on the existence of PVC Captain Vikram Batra that was aired on Amazon Prime. We’ve seen enough of Indian Army narratives about soldiers and their obligations all through the conflict, yet this one spotlights Vikram Batra and his family’s very own lives.

PVC Captain Vikram Batra was a chivalrous Indian soldier who forfeited himself to save his country. The rest of the world perceived his bravery following the arrival of the Shershah movie, which changed the direction of Sidharth Malhotra’s cinematic career.

2. Uri: The Surgical Strike

Uri: The Surgical Strike is a 2016 Indian action film based on the anecdotal Indian Army’s surgical strike in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in revenge for the Uri occurrence. Aditya Dhar, a debutante, composed and produced the film, and Ronnie Screwvala directed it under his RVPS motion pictures mark.

The Indian Army carried out surgical strikes against terrorist platforms in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in 2016. In revenge for the Uri terrorist assault, which killed 19 Indian officers, 35-55 terrorists were wiped out in a covert operation. Pakistan later rejected the event.

The film stars Vicky Kaushal, Yami Gautam, Paresh Rawal, Mohit Raina, and Kriti Kulhari, based on evident occasions. However, the film’s line “How’s The Josh?” is still new in the viewers’ minds, and its reaction “High Sir” actually gives us shudders.
