Lara said, 'But yes, bringing such an iconic figure to the big screen was a big responsibility in itself. As you know, the film also shows the plane hijack incident that happened during his tenure, so it was not easy to portray such a big dramatic event without making it look fake but I enjoyed it a lot. It took a lot of homework and research but this opportunity was life-changing for which I will always be grateful.
