Looking forward to my first flight alongside the exceptional Deepika Padukone. All buckled up for this Siddharth Anand joyride." In July last year, Hrithik shared several pictures on Instagram also featuring Deepika and had written, "This gang is ready for take off. #Fighter." Siddharth Anand is making his debut as a producer with Fighter as he is co-producing the film with Viacom18 Studios under his banner Marflix Productions.
