Uri is an action drama feature film, based on India's surgical strike on terror launch pads across Line of Control (LoC).
Directed by debutant director Aditya Dhar, Uri features Kaushal, Yami Gautam, Kirti Kulhari, Paresh Rawal, Mohit Raina, Ujjwal Chopra and many more. Vicky Kaushal plays the character of an army officer who will be seen gunning down terrorists in the operation.
Vicky had earlier said, "When this film came to me and we had this discussion. I was really thrilled and kicked about it because this is one story that I feel that everyone needs to know. One of the fantastic army operations that the Indian army has conducted and with great efficiency. I also feel it is a great opportunity and also a responsibility for all of us to portray this story."
On September 18, 2016, four heavily armed militants from the militant group Jaish-e-Mohammed was involved in the planning and execution of the attack at the 12 Infantry Brigade headquarters in Uri. 19 Indian soldiers lost their lives in the early morning attack. Eleven days after the attack, on September 29th, the Indian Army's special forces conducted one of its kind retaliatory 'surgical strike' on terror launch pads across Line of Control (LoC).
