Alia Bhatt is a versatile actor who is known for her method acting and ‘Raazi’ is her first try at a biopic. She has put in a lot of research for playing the role of a Kashmiri woman who is compelled to marry a Pakistani officer played by Vicky Kaushal, only to gather information for the Indian Armed Forces and tipped-off the Indian Intelligence when Pakistan planned to attack INS Viraat in 1971. ‘Raazi’, the period thriller is based on the backdrop of the 1971 war and is no typical Bollywood movie.

The film, based on a book, is directed by Meghna Gulzar.
