Manoj Tiwari as Indo-Pak war hero

We got an inkling of Manoj Tiwari's passion for India when he released a Bhojpuri album titled 'Khali Kargil nahi pura Pakistan Chahata' ('Not only Kargil, we need full Pakistan). The album was replete with patriotic fervour and nationalism.�A line in the album says, “We had fighters like Kunwar Singh, Chittu Pandey and we still have Abdul Hameed in our family.” No one�imagined that Manoj would get a chance to essay the role of a Indo-Pak war hero called Abdul Hameed in a Bhojpuri film.

Commenting on the role, Manoj said, “I'm very happy as the story of Abdul Hameed has always been an inspiration for me. Our young generation will be able to learn a lot from this movie.”

This is the first time a Bhojpuri film is made on the Indo-Pak war. Hope the film hits the floors soon and does a remarkable job at the box office. Shooting for the film will start in Ghazipur soon.
