Director Nikhil Advani's forthcoming film "D-Day", set to hit the screens July 19, has already won the hearts of people from the film fraternity including filmmakers Karan Johar and Abhishek Kapoor.

"D-Day, taut, gripping and incredibly made... a strong emotional layer that gives it gravitas... performances are top notch," Johar posted on microblogging site Twitter.

"Well-done Madhu Bhojwani and Monisha (Advani) for your debut production and Nikhil Advani for all the work and passion you guys have put in," added the filmmaker who had produced Advani's directorial venture "Kal Ho Naa Ho".

"Arjun Rampal, can't get over it brother. What a magnificent job you have done," added Kapoor.
