The teaser of director Sai Kiran Adivi's upcoming action thriller Operation Gold Fish (OGF) was unveiled by actor Mahesh Babu on Sunday. Starring Aadi Sai Kumar, Sasha Chattri, Rao Ramesh and Abburi Ravi in pivotal roles, the film is based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits. 

"The story of OGF is based on the mass exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the valley in the 80s. It feels sad to see the plight of militancy victims and recurrence of such incidents in Kashmir in recent times. The idea stems from real-life observations and director Sai Kiran met families of Kashmiri Pandits to make it authentic. It is an honest story and relevant to the times we live in. I will be seen as an NSG Commander in the film," says Aadi. 

Shot extensively in Kashmir, Delhi, Chitapalle, Araku and Ramoji Film City, OGF has music by Sricharan Pakala. The post-production is underway and the team is planning to release the film this summer.
