In the film, Khatter plays Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta. Pippa is based on his memoir of the Indo-Pak war of 1971, The Burning Chaffees. The film’s title is drawn from a PT-76, a Soviet amphibious light tank, which Mehta and his men nicknamed Pippa.
Earlier this week, the producers also shared stills of Khatter as Brigadier Mehta. In the first one, he is saluting while in uniform, while in the other two, he takes to the dance floor (and table) in what seems like a lively song.
