Sooraj
Pancholi
made
his
Bollywood
debut
with
Nikkhil
Advani's
Hero
opposite
Athiya
Shetty
in
2015.
Unfortunately,
the
film
tanked
at
the
box
office.
Now,
the
young
lad
is
back
with
his
next
outing
titled
Satellite
Shankar.
This
morning,
the
makers
have
released
the
first
look
poster
of
the
film.
Produced
by
Bhushan
Kumar,
Krishan
Kumar,
T-Series
and
Cine
1
Studios,
Murad
Khetani
and
Ashwin
Varde,
Satellite
Shankar
revolves
around
the
adventures
of
a
soldier
and
how
he
discovers
India
and
in
return
how
the
country
discovers
him.
Here
are
two
more
new
posters
of
the
film-
A
source
close
to
Sooraj
was
earlier
quoted
as
saying.
"For
Sooraj,
this
is
one
of
his
most
special
films.
To
understand
the
nuances
of
an
army
man
better,
he
also
spent
considerable
time
with
soldiers
at
actual
army
camps
in
places
like
Amristar,
Pathankot
and
Chitkut."
Speaking
about
playing
an
army
officer,
Sooraj
had
earlier
told
a
daily,
"It
puts
a
tremendous
amount
of
pressure
on
me.
Playing
an
Indian
soldier
on
the
silver
screen
is
a
big
deal.
Fortunately,
I
have
the
chance
to
interact
with
the
soldiers
and
know
about
their
experiences
since
they
are
a
part
of
the
cast."
Satellite
Shankar
marks
the
Bollywood
debut
of
South
actress
Megha
Akash
who
is
a
known
face
in
Tamil
and
Telugu
cinema.
The
actress
was
earlier
quoted
as
saying,
"There
were
a
lot
of
offers
in
Hindi,
but
'Satellite
Shankar'
is
just
something
special.
It's
a
very
different
film,
and
the
scale
of
the
film
is
also
so
huge."
Directed
by
Irrfan
Kamal,
Satellite
Shankar
is
slated
to
release
on
5th
July,
2019.
