In 'Pippa', Ishaan plays Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta, a former soldier of the 45th Cavalry tank squadron, who fought on the eastern front during the Indo-Pakistan War of 1971. Directed by Raja Krishna Menon, 'Pippa' is inspired by the book 'The Burning Chaffees', written by Brigadier Mehta himself.

Produced by Ronnie Screwvala’s company RSVP and Siddharth Roy Kapur’s Roy Kapur Films, 'Pippa' also stars Mrunal Thakur as Ishaan’s younger sister and Soni Razdan, who will play the role of his mother.
