To be directed by debutante filmmaker Lakshya Raj Anand, the movie is based on a true story about a hostage crisis and will feature John as a lone ranger who leads an attack team during a counter operation. Lakshya will also write the screenplay of the film, which will go on floors later this month.

That it is releasing on Independence Day makes it even more exciting.''
