Bollywood filmmaker and actor Rohit Shetty and Farhan Akhtar are set to feature in a new action-thriller Discovery Plus series, titled ‘Mission Frontline’.

Premiering on January 20, ‘Mission Frontline’ will be headlined by actor, writer, singer, director, and producer Farhan Akhtar and hitmaker Rohit Shetty.

The action-packed episodes will see Farhan and Rohit spend a day with Rashtriya Rifle Soldiers and J&K Police’s Special Operations Group in Srinagar, respectively, ANI reported from Mumbai.

Sharing his experience, Farhan said, “If I could express the feelings in one word, it would be humbling for me. Back when we were filming Lakshya, we went up close and personal with the lives of our jawans, but stepping into their shoes and experiencing the hardships they go through on-ground is a life-changing experience. It was extremely difficult for me to get trained in such tough terrains and weather conditions, but their support and encouragement made it possible.”

Rohit Shetty also said, “An experience that I cannot explain even through the best of phrases. People often associate me with action, but ‘true action’ is what these police officers personify. Given the high-tension area, leaving for duty each morning, and hoping for the family to be safe by the time you get back requires a lot of courage. I’m moved by their undying spirit.”
