Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions will bring the story of R&AW founder and spymaster RN Kao’s story to the big screen.

Filmmaker Karan Johar has announced his next project as a producer. The film will be adaptation of Nitin Gokhale’s book, R.N.Kao Gentleman Spymaster.

“Turning pages into frames, one thrill at a time. Bringing to you an adaptation of Nitin Gokhale’s book – R.N.Kao: Gentleman Spymaster to the silver screen. More information coming soon,” Karan wrote in a tweet. He shared more information about the film as well.

In the book strategic affairs analyst and author, Gokhale, writes how the Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) ran a 27-month-long, ruthless operation between December 1972 and May 1975 and started an uprising against Sikkim’s ruler to annex it to India.
