MohanLal, one of the finest actors of the country, from Kerala and Malayalam cinema had come over to finalize dates and schedules for the film he is making directed by Capt Ravi. Incidentally, Amitabh Bachchan will be seen with Suneil Shetty again in 'Kandahaar'. The mega budget project, 'Kandahaar' is based on the infamous Kandahaar flight hijack. You may recall that an Indian Airlines Flight 814 en route from Tribhuvan International Airport (Kathmandu, Nepal) to Indira Gandhi International Airport (Delhi, India) was hijacked by five Pakistani nationals on 24 December 1999.
Harkat-ul-Mujahideen, a Pakistan-based terrorist group, was held responsible for the hijacking. After touching down in Amritsar, Lahore and Dubai, the hijackers forced the aircraft to land in Kandahar, Afghanistan.
