The heroes of Deewar

Okay, so we have had enough Pak-bashing movies. But just when you thought they were going to stop, another one rears its head.

The latest one in line is Milan Luthria's Deewar: Let's Bring Our Heroes Home. Starring Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna and Amrita Rao, the film deals about 33 Indian prisoners of war trapped in Pakistan, since the 1971 war.

This will be Bachchan's third release in a row, after Govind Nihalani's Dev and Farhan Akhtar's Lakshya.

Luthria's directorial debut Kachche Dhaage (Ajay Devgan, Saif Ali Khan, Manisha Koirala and Namrata Shirodkar), was a surprise hit. But his second film, the recent Chori Chori (Devgan, Rani Mukerji) failed to rake in the moolah, thanks to a long delay in the making.

Deewar, which has also delayed considerably, will hit the marquee on June 25.
