There are very few films whose behind-the-scenes stories are as fascinating as the one that makes it to the big screen. Kabir Khan’s directorial debut 14 years ago was with one such film. He broke new ground with John Abraham and Arshad Warsi-starrer Kabul Express. The film which released on December 15, 2006, was the first international movie filmed in Afghanistan after the end of the Taliban’s reign. From death threats from the Taliban to armed commandos on set, the film’s journey in war-torn Kabul is a rare story. In fact, Kabir Khan once admitted that he could make an entire film on the making of his first film, Kabul Express.
