Poster of the movieAkshay Kumar-starrer Airlift has finally hit the screens. The film, based on the evacuation of Kuwait-based Indians during the 1990, has bagged a lot of attention because of its subject.
Apart from that, the film has a Kerala connection too.
Airlift is written and directed by Raja Krishna Menon. Although not many are aware about the background of the director, Raja Krishna Menon has his roots in 'God's own country' and Airlift is his third project. The writer-director has earlier worked on Bas Yun Hi and Barah Aana. Reportedly, Raja had spared several years to research on the subject. He even met various people associated with the issue.
Another Malayalam actress associated with the project is none other than Lena. Though the actress has not revealed much about her role in the movie, reports are that she will be seen in a pivotal role. Airlift is now considered to be one of the biggest turning points of her career.
