Chennai: Actor Varun Tej, who is set to play an Indian Air Force officer in his upcoming action drama, tentatively being referred to as VT 13, is undergoing intense training for the character.
Sources close to the unit of the film said that as an IAF officer, Varun Tej’s character will have many layers and that the actor is undergoing intense training to play the role to perfection.
VT13 is an action drama inspired by India’s Air Force. The patriotic, edge-of-the-seat entertainer will showcase the indomitable spirit of our heroes on the frontlines and also highlight the challenges they face.
On Saturday, the makers of the film – Sony Pictures International Productions and Renaissance Pictures – extended their warm wishes to the Indian Air Force (IAF) on the occasion of the Indian Air Force Day by releasing a new poster of the upcoming action drama.
The new poster shows Varun Tej from a top angle as he makes his way towards a jet fighter.
Shooting for VT13, which is being directed by debutant Shakti Pratap Singh, will commence in December this year. The movie will be shot in Telugu and Hindi simultaneously and will have a global release in 2023.
