Speaking about the film, Siddharth Anand earlier said, "Mamta (Siddharth's wife) and I started our film company MARFLIX with #FIGHTER. A film that is ambitious in more ways than one. It's more than just a film for us. And we have given it all to this one. 2024 starts with the same feeling again of nervousness and anxiety. Here's hoping that you guys give the same love to FIGHTER that you showered on PATHAAN. Happy new year guys! See at the movies!! On 25th January." (ANI)
Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan says he felt a certain "responsibility and strength" when he donned the uniform to play the role of an Indian Air Force officer
In 'Fighter' movie, Hrithik plays Squadron Leader Shamsher Pathania, whose aviator call sign is "Patty". "The uniform has some magic. There have been three costumes that I have worn (in my career). Like (superhero film) 'Krrish' had a cape and a costume and when I wore that, I felt strong. In 'Lakshya', when I wore the uniform (of an Indian Army officer), it gave me strength. And in 'Fighter', when I wore the uniform, I felt a responsibility, weight and strength. The power you derive from a uniform is difficult to replicate. It is a surreal feeling. It works and you actually feel the power," the 50-year-old said in a group interview.
