Present day: Rudra Pratap Singh (Arjun Rampal) Indian Armed Forces, MARCOS unit, Zoya Rehman (Huma Qureshi) R&AW explosives expert and Aslam (Akash Dhaiya) a petty thief from the streets of Mumbai, recruited by the Agency to infiltrate Pakistan to join Wali Khan and carry out the mission to bring back Goldman who was going to break all ISI protocol and security and attend his son’s wedding. The man who will be on that day be abducted and brought back to India to face justice.
Everything goes according to plan till that fateful day. The team sent to bring in Goldman did the unthinkable which puts the mission in jeopardy.
D-Day is the story of four unassuming protagonists, all with varying back stories and a common mission that brings them together on foreign soil to execute one such mission. It explores their journey, their choices, their loss, their victory. Set in never captured on celluloid backdrop, this action drama has music created by Shankar Ehsaan and loy. The action of the movie brilliant and has been intentionally kept real and unchoreographed. The credit for this goes to Tom Struthers (of the Dark Knight series and lara Croft series fame).
