On the summer of 1999, India was abuzz with two major events: the Cricket World Cup in England, where Sourav Ganguly and Anil Kumble led the team, and the Kargil War, where the Indian Air Force launched Operation Safed Sagar. This Netflix series, inspired by real events, sheds light on the Golden Arrows Squadron, a group of young air warriors who flew into treacherous conditions to defend the nation. Sourav Ganguly reflects on this period, stating that while the cricket team was representing India on the field, the Indian Air Force officers were the real heroes, fighting under unimaginable circumstances. Anil Kumble also praises the series, saying it brings to life an untold story of bravery and duty. The series, directed by Oni Sen and starring Siddharth, Jimmy Shergill, and Dia Mirza, is a tribute to these unsung heroes. With its powerful narrative and authentic portrayal, Operation Safed Sagar is a must-watch for every Indian, reminding us of the sacrifices made by the Indian Air Force during the Kargil War.
