Produced by Mahesh Babu, Major follows the story of a soldier — the late Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan — who sacrificed his life while foiling the dastardly 26/11 Mumbai terror attack. Besides playing the lead role, Sesh has also written the film and he had called this his pet project at the trailer launch.
The film, which was shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi, has reportedly grossed over ₹42.5 crore in cinemas across the world.
Major also stars Sobhita Dhulipala, Saiee Manjrekar and Murali Sharma.
