Actor Bhagyashri Borse has announced the completion of the first shooting schedule of Operation Ganga, the upcoming film headlined by Mohanlal and directed by Vishnu Mohan. Taking to her Instagram Stories on Sunday, the actor shared a photograph with the filmmaker and reflected on her experience working on the project, expressing her appreciation for his approach to filmmaking.
“Had so much fun shooting for Operation Ganga. Vishnu Mohan sir, your kindness is your super power!!! I really admire you as a director. Thanks for having me (as part of this project).”
The update offers a glimpse into the film’s production, which brings together a diverse cast for a story inspired by one of India’s most significant evacuation missions in recent history. For Bhagyashri, the film is also an important career milestone, marking her entry into Malayalam cinema after working across other film industries.
Bhagyashri Borse calls working with Mohanlal a blessing
Operation Ganga marks Bhagyashri Borse’s Malayalam debut. The actor, who has previously appeared in films such as Kaantha and Lenin, is now set to share screen space with Mohanlal in a project that brings together performers from different film industries.
Bhagyashri recently offered another glimpse into her experience on the sets by sharing a photograph with Mohanlal. Describing the opportunity to work alongside the veteran actor as a blessing, she spoke about the lessons she has been picking up during the shoot.
“Every day of shoot, I get to see cinema through your eyes and learn from you.. you are truly gifted sir.”
Her comments reflect the admiration Mohanlal continues to command among actors working with him. Arjun Rampal, who is also part of Operation Ganga, has spoken about his own experience of sharing screen space with the Malayalam superstar. The film marks Rampal’s debut in Malayalam cinema as well, making the project a significant crossover opportunity for both actors.
While details about their respective characters remain under wraps, the casting brings together established names from different industries for a story rooted in a major real-world event.
Operation Ganga is based on India’s evacuation mission from Ukraine
Operation Ganga draws inspiration from the Indian government’s 2022 mission to evacuate Indian citizens stranded in Ukraine and neighbouring regions following Russia’s invasion of the country. The operation involved bringing thousands of Indian nationals, including students, back home amid the escalating conflict.
Produced by Gokulam Gopalan under the Sree Gokulam Movies banner, the film features an ensemble cast that also includes R Parthiban. Given the scale and subject of the story, the project is expected to require a production approach that goes beyond the conventions of a routine Malayalam feature.
Director Vishnu Mohan recently spoke to Cinema Express about the demands of mounting the film, noting that assembling the right crew for an ambitious project required additional time. He explained that the film could not be approached like a standard Malayalam release, highlighting the preparation involved in bringing its scale and subject to the screen.
The technical team includes music director Shashwat Sachdev, stunt choreographer Sea Young Oh, cinematographer Miroslaw Kuba Brozek, editor Shameer Muhammed and production designer Rajeevan. The combination of an international technical crew and a cast drawn from multiple industries points to the scale of the production.
With its first schedule now complete, Operation Ganga moves another step forward as the team continues work on the film. However, the makers have yet to announce a release date or reveal further details about the plot and the characters portrayed by the ensemble cast.
Meanwhile, Bhagyashri has other projects lined up across industries. Her upcoming slate includes Seyon, which stars Sivakarthikeyan, adding another major collaboration to a filmography that continues to expand across regional cinema.
