Some interesting facts about Fighter

The action-packed film features Hrithik, Deepika and Anil Kapoor as the Indian Air Force (IAF) officers.

Apart from the bonding as IAF officers, Hrithik and Deepika are shown as romancing in the film, which has reference to the 2019 Pulwama terror attack where at least 40 Indian soldiers were martyred.

The IAF's response to the attack with an airstrike was also shown in the film.

Fighter is the first film where Hrithik and Deepika, two enormously popular actors of the country, shared screen space together.

Siddharth had previously directed Hrithik in two of his films, Bang Bang and War while Deepika in Bachna Ae Haseeno and Pathaan.
