When 1971 war hero Brig Balram Singh Mehta (retd) got down to writing The Burning Chaffees following a regimental lunch in 2015, he had never imagined that his book on the valour and bravery of tank crews during the 1971 India-Pakistan war would be turned into a film. Pippa, the action-packed tank war film based on his book, is being directed by Raja Krishna Menon and produced by Siddhartha Roy Kapur and Ronnie Screwvala. Ishaan Khatter is playing the lead role of real-life war veteran Brig Balram Singh Mehta, while the music of the biopic is being given by none other than AR Rahman.
