This ambitious project will shed light on the indomitable courage and leadership exemplified by Brigadier Mohammad Usman, Mahavir Chakra revered as the ‘Lion of Naushera,’ along with gallant deeds of other soldiers like Param Vir Chakra awardee Naik Jadunath Singh and a group of brave children known as Bal Sainiks, whose unwavering dedication and sacrifice defended and reclaimed every inch of Indian territory after the raiders from Pakistan had intruded into Jammu and Kashmir.

He was the highest-ranking officer in the Indian Army during the 1947-48 India-Pakistan war in Jammu and Kashmir to have laid down his life to defend and protect Bharat…for the past many years, I have been celebrating his selfless duty and service to the nation in my speeches and interactions with soldiers and locals. I’m happy that the team has identified this subject to make a film. I wish them all the best.”
