Emraan Hashmi Marks a Historic Moment with Ground Zero Screening in Srinagar

Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi has created waves on social media after sharing a landmark moment from the beautiful valleys of Srinagar. Taking to his profile, Hashmi revealed that Ground Zero, his upcoming action thriller, held a special red carpet screening for BSF soldiers and officers—the first of its kind in Srinagar in 38 years. Calling it a "landmark day," Hashmi’s post celebrated not just the film’s journey, but the significance of honoring the armed forces with this exclusive screening at the heart of a region closely tied to the film’s theme.

 

Directed by Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoskar, Ground Zero is a Hindi-language action thriller produced under the banner of Excel Entertainment by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar. The film features Emraan Hashmi in the lead, alongside Sai Tamhankar and Zoya Hussain, and promises a gripping, high-stakes narrative rooted in patriotism, sacrifice, and duty. The storyline is said to revolve around volatile conflict zones, with emotional and political undertones, making it a timely and intense addition to the Indian cinema landscape.

 

This gesture of hosting a red carpet screening exclusively for the Border Security Force (BSF) adds a powerful emotional layer to the film's message. It underlines a cinematic tribute to real-life heroes, set against the very backdrop where their service unfolds daily. The move has been applauded by fans and industry insiders alike, not only for its symbolic significance but also for bringing mainstream Bollywood closer to regions like Jammu & Kashmir—an area that has often remained distanced from large-scale film events due to historical and security challenges.

 

Ground Zero is slated for a theatrical release on April 25, 2025, and is already building anticipation with its powerful theme and stellar cast. With music contributions from talents like Jubin Nautiyal and Tanishk Bagchi, and strong backing from production houses like Excel Movies, DreamzKrraft Entertainment, and Talisman Films, the film is poised to make a bold statement. If the Srinagar screening is any indication, Ground Zero won’t just be another action thriller—it could be a cinematic salute to those who stand at the nation’s frontlines.
