Ace Filmmaker JP Dutta had roped in 300 army personnel for war scenes in Paltan.

JP Dutta who is all set to complete his war trilogy with Paltan has left no stone unturned for the film.

The filmmaker had roped in 300 army personnel for the war sequence that was shot in Ladakh.

The cast of the film had shot for two months and the army personnel's had also taught the actors how to wield the guns as well as helped them with the body language of army men.

JP Dutta shared," The movie focusses on the action and existential angst that our soldiers faced during the war time. Who better than the real army officers themselves to showcase the true emotions? The ministry of defense was very supportive throughout the making and to shoot with real army men as part of our own crew helped us a lot. In no time, they all gelled with us and even helped the actors get into the skin of their characters. From training them to hold the real guns properly to aping army character traits, the real army personnel helped us and I am hugely grateful to them."

Paltan is based on the Nathu La military clashes of 1967, which took place along the Sikkim border, Paltan showcases the untold story of the Indian forces, who fought an intense battle to ward off a Chinese infiltration.

The battle of Nathu La was a historic victory for the Indian army, because of which Sikkim is a part of our country.

Considering the equations India and China share in todays, Paltan will induce a strong sense of patriotism amongst the audience.

With power-packed performances, the film promises to tell the riveting, untold story of the bravest of Indian soldiers who fought with their brothers next to them till the end.

Presented by Zee Studios and produced by J P Dutta Films, 'Paltan' is directed by J. P. Dutta and is slated to release on 7th September.
