Filmmaker JP Dutta usually thrives on the big screen. But now, it seems he’s ready to try something new. JP Dutta, who is celebrated for his epic war dramas like Border and LOC: Kargil, is gearing up to make his mark in the world of digital entertainment.
After the surge in popularity of OTT platforms, Dutta is adapting to the changing times by venturing into the world of online streaming.
JP Dutta Set To Debut On OTT With A Real-Life War Drama
As reported by Midday, it has been unveiled that Dutta is set to launch a new military drama on digital platforms. With a filmography boasting classics like Border (1997) and Refugee (2000), Dutta’s transition to OTT has stirred anticipation among fans.
The script for the upcoming series has been finalised, drawing inspiration from real-life war events to craft a narrative of patriotism and valour.
Sources close to the production reveal that Disney+ Hotstar is enthusiastic about the project and is eager to commence filming at the earliest opportunity. Leading the production charge is J.P. Dutta’s daughter, Nidhi Dutta, who will produce the series under their banner.
While Dutta himself expressed interest in directing the venture, his commitments to the ongoing project Ghudchadi have kept him preoccupied.
JP Dutta Is Also Working On Border 2
Meanwhile, the sequel to Dutta’s iconic Border is already in the works, marking the filmmaker’s second major project of the year. Scheduled for release in 2024, Border 2 aims to delve deeper into the historical context of the 1971 India-Pakistan war by exploring the backstories of its heroes.
In the past, rumours suggesting Kartik Aaryan’s involvement in the sequel were swiftly dismissed by T-Series. Nidhi Dutta’s spokesperson urged fans to rely on credible sources for updates.
