As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for emerging talent, I must say that Vijay Varma is undeniably making waves in the entertainment industry. His ability to seamlessly transition between films and OTT platforms is truly commendable. His upcoming project, IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack, under the direction of Anubhav Sinha, promises to be a riveting watch.


At present, Vijay Varma is immersed in a string of successful films. He’s also made a mark in the streaming world with productions like Murder Mubarak and Jaane Jaan. Now, he’s gearing up to engage audiences once more with his upcoming miniseries, IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack. This production, directed by Anubhav Sinha, is set for release on Netflix on August 29. In a recent interview, the actor shared some insights about filming the show.

Actor Vijay Varma recently shared insights about the movie “IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack” in an exclusive chat with News18. During filming, he mentioned that he was intrigued to see the finished product because all he saw on set was a green screen. Furthermore, Vijay praised the film’s script, noting that it featured a cockpit primarily occupied by him and another character, Patralekhaa, as well as 180 passengers, other crew members, and an airplane.

During filming, the actor found himself in a large, fascinating world he wouldn’t have experienced on set alone. However, he was eagerly waiting to see the final product. “Initially, I thought there were a few exceptional actors in this [series], whom I consider almost divine,” Varma said, also mentioning his deep admiration for the director who would be instrumental in their performances. Furthermore, expressing himself from the perspective of a viewer, he shared that he was looking forward to watching the show himself.

The Netflix series boasts an impressive cast that includes Naseeruddin Shah, Kumud Mishra, Dia Mirza Rekhi, Patralekhaa, and Pankaj Kapur. Recently, the actor from Gully Boy shared his enthusiasm on social media about working alongside Naseeruddin Shah and Pankaj Kapur on screen.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d rephrase it like this: “Once a boy from Hyderabad, harboring dreams as vast as the cosmos, I couldn’t fathom that one day my dream would become a reality. The boy was me, and the dream was to work alongside cinema titans Naseeruddin Shah and Pankaj Kapur. Today, I proudly hold a poster with these legends!”
