One of Bollywood's coolest directors, Apoorva Lakhia, is getting ready for his next release – 'Mission Istaanbul.' Starring Vivek Oberoi, Zayed Khan, Shreya Saran and Niketan Dheer the film is shot extensively in Turkey and Afghanistan.

Apoorva says, "It's a story about a guy who is stuck in unfortunate circumstances and surroundings. To give you an example in an English movie I'd say 'The Last King of Scotland' where the protagonist is fictional but the place and the circumstances are true. So my film is pretty much based on that where a man finds himself caught in the midst of terrorism.

He is not necessarily a terrorist but his surroundings are facing the consequences of terrorist activity and certain scenarios come about in that journey. It's a very interesting subject and we are shooting the whole film in Turkey. There is a war sequence for which we are getting big tanks so I'm pretty excited about it." And from the look of these pictures so are we!
