Wagah (film)

Wagah (/wɑːɡɑːh/) is a 2016 Indian Tamil-language romantic action film written and directed by G. N. R. Kumaravelan. The film stars Vikram Prabhu and Ranya Rao, while D. Imman composes the soundtrack. Set in Wagah, the flashpoint border post between India and Pakistan, the film revolves around an Indian soldier who finds himself in a tough situation when he is caught by Pakistani soldiers while safely escorting his girlfriend to her home in Pakistan.

Wagah was extensively shot in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir and a few extreme border locations which had very tight securities. The audio of the film was launched on 18 April 2016.

Wagah released theatrically on 12 August 2016 in India and other countries. Upon its release, the film met mixed responses from both critics and audiences. In its first weekend, the film grossed Rs.66.72 lakhs from 189 shows. However, due to mixed reviews, the film later failed to sustain its collections at the box office.
