Bhuj: The Pride of India is a forthcoming Bollywood war action drama movie written, co-produced, and directed by Abhishek Dudhaiya. The film is based on the life of IAF Squadron Leader Vijay Karnik, who along with a team of 300 women from the nearby Madhapar village reconstructed the IAF airstrip that was destroyed in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. The film highlights Ajay Devgn as Karnik alongside Sanjay Dutt, Sonakshi Sinha, Nora Fatehi, Sharad Kelkar, Ammy Virk, and Pranitha Subhash. The movie displays what precisely occurred on the evening of December 8, 1971, and how 300 town ladies helped India in winning probably the hardest battle against Pakistan. Addressing the Asian Age, Squadron Leader Karnik reviews the occurrence saying “We were fighting a war and if there had been any casualties of any of these women, it would have been a great loss to the war effort. But I took the decision and it worked out. I had briefed them where they could take shelter if attacked and they followed it bravely.”
