Ghazi, later titled The Ghazi Attack, is a 2017 Indian period war film written and directed by Sankalp Reddy. Produced in Telugu cinema, the film was shot simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi languages. The film stars Kay Kay Menon, Atul Kulkarni, Rana Daggubati, Taapsee Pannu and Satya Dev. Ghazi is inspired by the sinking of PNS Ghazi during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. The story follows a submarine of the Indian Navy, an executive naval officer, and his team, who remain underwater for 18 days. The film depicts the valour of the crew aboard the Indian submarine INS Karanj (S21), which—according to Indian claims—destroyed the Pakistani submarine PNS Ghazi when it entered Indian waters with the objective of destroying INS Vikrant off the coast of Visakhapatnam. The film was theatrically released on 17 February 2017 to widespread critical acclaim and emerged as a commercial success, grossing over ₹62 crore worldwide against a budget of ₹15 crore. The film won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Telugu, and received nominations for Best Film and Best Director at the 65th Filmfare Awards South. It also won the state Gaddar Award for Third Best Feature Film.
