“I personally enjoy doing these (real-life incident) kinds of cinemas which can make an impact on society, I like those kinds of cinema. But also I would not say I won’t do ‘Welcome’, or ‘Hera Pheri’ I like doing those films too, but this also I enjoy the most,” he said.
Helmed by Tinu Suresh Desai ‘Mission Ranignaj’ is produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Jackky Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh and Ajay Kapoor.
During the press conference, Akshay also called ‘Mission Raniganj‘ one of his best film
He said, “Tinu deserves the National Award. He’s been with the screenplay for the last 4-5 years, he has worked so hard. I don’t know about what the commerciality of this film going to be but that is for sure I am so proud of the film he has made. And I am happy to say that this is one of the best films which I have done.”
‘Mission Raniganj‘ also starred actor Parineeti Chopra in the lead role.
The film is based on the true life event of late Jaswant Singh Gill, who led India’s first successful coal mine rescue mission in November 1989.
