Arjun Kapoor is back on 70mm with India's Most Wanted. The film is about the capture of one of India's most dreaded terrorists by a group of five intelligence officers. What sets the operation apart is the fact that the group of intelligence officers are totally unarmed on the mission. Arjun Kapoor plays the role of stoic patriotic and determined Prabhat Kapoor who leads the team. The film has been written and directed by Rajkumar Gupta. He has made films like Aamir, No One Killed Jessica, Ghanchakkar and Raid before this. The filmmaker reveals that he took three years to research and write the script of India's Most Wanted.
