Airlift

“170,000 Refugees, 488 Flights, 59 Days, 1 Man”

In August 1990, Iraqi troops cross into Kuwait, and Ranjit Katyal (Akshay Kumar), a wealthy Indian businessman who has spent his life minding only his own affairs, wakes to find tanks in the streets. More than 170,000 Indians are stranded there, and they start turning to him for answers. Raja Menon, working from real evacuation accounts, follows a man who cared about no one outside his family becoming the one everyone else depends on.
