After Border and LOC Kargil, renowned filmmaker J. P. Dutta is all set to complete India's biggest war Trilogy with the upcoming war drama Paltan. The makers have recently unveiled the trailer of the war drama which has been loved by the audiences.
JP Dutta has time and again enthralled the audience with his real depiction of war in the films.
Speaking about the film, the ace filmmaker said, "Paltan is truly special for me, as it completes my war trilogy, which I had promised to do during Border.

It's high time that this group of Indian soldiers are given their due; it is time India celebrated their victory".
