Reportedly, it is a blanket deal and the studio has a stake in almost all rights including theatrical to digital to the satellite. It is said to be the biggest deal in the post-pandemic world in terms of finances.

Fighter will see Hrithik play the role of an air force officer for the first time in his career. The film will see a pan India release. The film which is originally being made in Hindi language will also be released in Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam languages too.

The film was initially supposed to go on floors this year. However, the pandemic has caused a delay in the scheduling of all projects in the film industry.
