Operation Valentine revolves around the 2019 Pulwama attack. The team achieved an impressive feat by completing the CGI work with just ₹5 crore.
During a recent media interaction, Varun Tej said, “Our budget constraints prevent us from spending ₹200 or ₹300 crore, we had to tell the story effectively. However, upon presenting our film to the Indian Air Force, they commended us, stating that our movie stands out as the finest representation of the Air Force.”
Operation Valentine is produced by Sony Pictures International Productions and Sandeep Mudda’s Renaissance Pictures.
Mickey J Meyer composed the music for this ambitious project.
