Vicky Kaushal will be seen donning the avatar of an army commando who heads the surgical strike in Uri.
Based on Indian Army's surgical strikes on terror launch pads across Line of Control (LoC), UR traces one of the most significant events of the history of the Indian army. On September 18, 2016, 19 Indian soldiers were killed in an early morning attack by Pakistani terrorists at the 12 Infantry Brigade headquarters in Uri. In response, on September 29, the Indian Army's Special Forces carried out surgical strikes on terror launch pads across Line of Control (LoC).
The teaser featured Vicky Kaushal in a revengeful avatar to avenge the death of his friend and fellow soldiers that laid their lives in the Pakistani terrorist attack. The power-packed trailer evokes a strong patriotic sentiment amongst the audience based against the backdrop of true events.
Produced by RSVP movies and directed by Aditya Dhar, the film has Vicky Kaushal, Yami Gautam and Paresh Rawal in pivotal roles. The film is slated to release on 11th January 2019.
