Sobhita Dhulipala wraps up the shooting of 'Major' co-starring Adivi Sesh
Sobhita Dhulipala's new movie is a biopic that tells the story of those brave soldiers who got martyred at the time of the gut-wrenching 26/11 attacks
The realm of the internet erupted in excitement when Ghost Stories star Sobhita Dhulipala got cast in yet another big production. The production in question is Adivi Sesh’s Major. Sobhita Dhulipala's new movie is a biographical drama that tells the story of those brave soldiers who got martyred at the time of the gut-wrenching and heartbreaking 26/11 attacks. The film was announced back in February 2019 and went to floors a year later. The team kept on working on the same until the end of March.
It has only been a few weeks since team Major resumed work, which most likely included Sobhita’s scenes. The assumption is being made because just yesterday, Sobhita Dhulipala announced that it is a wrap for her character on the sets of the film.
Here is the official announcement for the same through her Instagram handle:
Major will be front lined by Adivi Sesh, who will portray the character of Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan. Unnikrishnan’s character and his sacrifices for the people will be at the heart of the film. It has been reported that in Major, Sobhita Dhulipala will be seen playing a strong and tenacious character who will have a complete story arc of her own within the universe of the film.
Here is the poster reveal tweet by Sesh himself:
