KARACHI: On Defence Day 2021, ARY Digital had revealed the teaser poster of its upcoming telefilm, Hangor. While the story promised to be a tribute to Pakistan Navy, no more details were revealed.

Affan Waheed, too, shared the poster of Hangor on his Instagram story, hinting towards his involvement in the project as well.
Written by Saji Gul, the telefilm is based on true events from the Indo-Pak War of 1971. As evident by the title, the film is named after the Pakistan Navy Daphné-class submarine Hangor that sank a frigate of the Indian Navy. This was the first warship sunk in action by a submarine since World War II.
