Where to watch Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran on OTT as it clocks 6 years

Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran is available for streaming on ZEE5. Parmanu is an action drama film directed by Abhishek Sharma and is based on the nuclear bomb test explosions conducted by the Indian Army at Pokhran in 1998. It stars John Abraham, Boman Irani, Diana Penty, Anuja Sathe, Vikas Kumar, Aditya Hitkari, Ajay Shanker, Anuja Anil Sathe, Master Arush D, Anil Rastogi in important roles.

The film is inspired by the real-life events of India’s second confidential nuclear test at Pokhran in 1998, under the leadership of APJ Abdul Kalam, India’s ‘Missile Man’. It was called Operation Shakti and five nuclear explosions took place -- three on May 11, 1998, and two on May 13. The film narrates the story of the Indian Army’s patriotism and valor for the country.

In an old interview with Pinkvilla, when John Abraham was asked about his choices of films and if he consciously picks a storyline with India and patriotism as its sentiment, he said, "I just concentrate on good content. Coincidently films like RAW, Batla House and Parmanu have all gravitated to me, they do have an element of India but the patriotism is not jingoistic. I think Parmanu has left such a strong mark in people's mind that they feel that I am going down that route but the fact is I want to do just good content."
