Actor Sidharth Malhotra on Monday said he has resumed shooting for his upcoming period thriller Mission Majnu. Written by Parveez Shaikh, Aseem Arrora and Sumit Batheja, the movie is the debut directorial venture of ad filmmaker Shantanu Bagchi.

Backed by Ronnie Screwvala, Amar Butala and Garima Mehta, the film’s first schedule was shot in Lucknow, prior to the second wave of coronavirus.

According to the makers, Mission Majnu is inspired by real events set in the 1970s and follows the story of India’s most courageous mission in the heart of Pakistan that forever changed the relationship between the two nations.
