From Army to the film on Rajiv Gandhi
Major Ravi, a former Indian army officer had a passion for making films from his childhood. He joined the Indian army as a jawan in 1975, then graduated from the Army Cadet College to become a commando in 1988. He has won various gallantry awards, medals and citations for his brave works as a commando.
Now that he ha retired, he has made his foray into films, his childhood ambition. He first made a children’s film, Punarjani, starring Mohanlal’s son Pranav. His first film was a bi-lingual (Keerthichakra in Malayalam and Aran in Tamil) which threw light on the events that took place in the Indo-Pak border of Kashmir, Ladakh, Jammu and Kargil.
While in the army, he had led the team that investigated the assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. In his recent movie, Mission 90 days, he has beautifully shown the tribulations his team had to undergo before breaking into the house of the main convict, Sivarasan.
After bringing the raw facts about the operation to the public at large, he also wants the Gandhi family to see the film. He is organizing a special show in New Delhi for Sonia Gandhi and family to see the movie.
