Hollywood superstar Brad Pitt is in India to promote his latest film, the Netflix satire “War Machine”.
Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan will be moderating a special chat session here with Pitt, in which the two actors will discuss the project.
In the movie, the 53-year-old actor plays a US General posted in Afghanistan.
Directed by David Michod, of “Animal Kingdom” fame, the Netflix Original film is inspired by the book “The Operators: The Wild & Terrifying Inside Story of America’s War in Afghanistan” by late journalist Michael Hastings.
An investment in the range of USD 60 million also makes it Netflix’s biggest-budget feature to date.
Pitt’s character is loosely based on General Stanley A McChrystal, a retired United States Army general best-known for his command of Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC).
His last assignment was as Commander, International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and Commander, US Forces Afghanistan.
