The war hero whose story of a forgotten tank battle inspired ‘Pippa’ ...Middle East

New Delhi: Had Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta not written his book, ‘The Burning Chaffees’, on the urging of his battalion mates, the Battle of Garibpur in the run-up to the 1971 India-Pakistan War, would have been forgotten forever. But the book inspired Raja Krishna Menon, previously in the news for the Akshay Kumar-starrer ‘Airlift’, to make the war film ‘Pippa’ with Ishaan ‘The Suitable Boy’ Khattar playing the war hero (and author of the book), then a 26-year-old who was made a Captain in the thick of the battle after his commanding officer died within three minutes of it. The film is a compelling retelling of this tank battle, which was fought in present-day Bangladesh, against Pakistan
