Actor Emraan Hashmi, who was in the national capital before the release of ‘Ground Zero’, offered some insight into the film, based on one of the most important anti -terrorism functions in India’s recent history. Today, in a special conversation with India, which took place before the tragic Pahalgam terror attack, Hashmi highlighted the emotional and operating complications faced by BSF officials, especially in the early 2000s – a period when Kashmir was one of the most volatile conflict areas in the world.
Hashmi, who plays the role of BSF Commandant Narendra Nath Dhar Dubey, Revaluing an important chapter in India’s war on terror-the Mahu-Year Mission, which was abolished to Ghazi Baba, the top commander of Jaish-e-Mohammed, which was responsible for the 2001 Indian Parliament attack and the 2002 Akshardham temple attack. They have been postponed as some of the deadliest terrorist attacks on Indian soil.
The film is set between 2000 and 2003, of course one of the most turbulent periods in the history of Kashmir. Jaish-e-mohammed was made only after IC814 kidnapping. This was followed by an unprecedented attack of Parliament in 2001, which for the first time in history by a terrorist group targeted a National Parliament, “said Hashmi.
He also recalled how these incidents transformed Kashmir into a war zone, with red alerts in security establishments. “There was a fear psychosis. The youths brainwashed by Jaish were killing our armies in the Point-Black range. In a special incident, 70 soldiers of BSF, CRPF, JK Police and Army lost their lives. The emotional toll on the authorities was unimaginable, “he said.
At the center of this real-life operation, Dubey was at the center of the two-year mission to track and eliminate Ghazi Baba- a master of disguise and guerrilla strategy, who continuously combined and captured between citizens in Srinagar.

He said, “This single operation crippled Jai-e-Mohammed for more than a decade. It was a mission that was to be stated,” he said.
The encounter finally took place on August 30, 2003, one day that became a ‘ground zero’ moment for the story. According to Hashmi, the gravity of the mission and the sheer flexibility of Dubey and his team made the character one of the most emotionally demanded roles, which he has ever portrayed.
