Anurag Basu to direct spy Ravindra Kaushik's biography The Black Tiger

Anurag Basu will be directing the official biopic of the greatest spy of Indian history Ravindra Kaushik titled The Black Tiger.

Talking about the film Basu said, "Ravindra Kaushik's story is that of courage and valour. At the young age of 20 years, he played a pivotal role in many national and international security matters of the 70s and 80s that went on to define India's as well as South Asia's geo-political character. So much of our history is either hidden or forgotten. We ought to recognise and learn about this unsung hero."

The Black Tiger is produced by Basu, R Vivek, Asvin Srivatsangam and Divay Dhamija.
