Sarfira (In cinemas)

This true story comes from the world of entrepreneurship, start-ups and aviation. Sarfira tells the story of Vir Jagannath Mhatre, the son of a teacher in rural Maharashtra who sets out to achieve the impossible – making the common man fly with India’s first low cost airline. Let’s hope that Khiladi Akshay Kumar also flies with success as a Sarfira, after recently delivering a series of flops.
