Directed by Siddharth Anand and bankrolled by Viacom18 Studios in collaboration with Marflix Pictures, Fighter is scheduled to hit the silver screens on the eve of Republic Day.

The film is billed as a tribute to the courage, sacrifices and patriotism of the Indian Armed Forces.
During the trailer launch, Siddharth stated that on January 25, everyone should come and show their support and appreciation for the film. The director said that whilst he has previously worked on numerous action films, this particular project has been an entirely different journey. He highlighted that the success of this film is not solely dependent on one individual, as it has been a collective team effort.
Hrithik, too, expressed his gratitude for the extraordinary and passionate individuals that surround him, thanking the universe for the opportunity to work with someone as 'crazy' and passionate as Siddharth Anand and to possess the same degree of courage, passion and insanity as Anil Kapoor.
