It is the story of a man’s conviction and determination with a lot of heart and emotions. It is based on Major Deependra Singh Sengar, Special Forces officer, the Kargil war hero, and is an ode to his wilful journey. I am glad it is made into a series so that viewers can soak in all highlights and turning points of his journey.
