For the uninitiated, Unnikrishnan served in the elite Special Action Group of the National Security Guards. He showed heroic gestures during the heart-wrenching November 2008 Mumbai attacks and got martyred while serving for the fellow citizens. He was bestowed upon with the Ashoka Chakra which is India's highest peacetime gallantry award, later in 2009.

Speaking of the project, the movie will be directed by Sashi Kiran Tikka. Sobhita and Sesh Adivi have reunited for the second time after sharing the screen space with the first time in crime-thriller, Goodachari.
