Meanwhile, Sidharth Malhotra had shared a post with Rashmika Mandanna last month as he started shooting for the film. Since then, he has been sharing several glimpses of Lucknow while shooting for 'Mission Majnu'.
'Mission Majnu' revolves around a covert operation of the 1970-1980 decade and portrays the bond between India and Pakistan that changed after the operation. Directed by Shantanu Baagchi, the film is the story of a spy played by Sidharth Malhotra. It is produced by Ronnie Screwvala, Amar Butala and Garima Mehta. Apart from Sidharth and Rashmika, the film also features Sharib Hashmi and Kumud Mishra who will be seen playing crucial characters in the story.
