Mohanlal’s L367 Is Now Operation Ganga: Actor Teams Up With National Award-Winning Filmmaker Vishnu Mohan
Malayalam superstar Mohanlal's eagerly awaited movie L367 has been officially announced as Operation Ganga. There are all kinds of emotions surrounding the film, and the film features the veteran actor and National Award-winning director Vishnu Mohan; the movie will be his first working with Mohan. This is because the movie is based on India’s historic evacuation mission during the Russia-Ukraine war.
It is a movie called Operation Ganga: A Nation’s Promise, written and directed by Vishnu Mohan and produced by Gokulam Gopalan under the banner of Sree Gokulam Movies. The project was first announced in January 2026 under the working title L367, with the producers announcing that the film would be made with talent coming from Malayalam cinema, Bollywood, and international teams.
Mohanlal’s Operation Ganga Inspired by Real Events.
The title Operation Ganga immediately connects the film with India’s evacuation effort launched after the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war in 2022. The mission brought thousands of Indian citizens, including a large number of students, home from Ukraine.
Though there was initial speculation that L367 might be based on the evacuation mission, director Vishnu Mohan had explained that the film was a composite of many real-life events and should not be considered as a conventional army-based movie. The project and its narrative evidently went through a lot of research.
The new title therefore adds an important layer of context to the project and also allows the filmmakers to tell a larger cinematic story based on real events.
Vishnu Mohan and Mohanlal Join Hands.
He won the National Film Award for Best Debut Film of a Director for Meppadiyan, and his collaboration with Mohanlal is a big step forward for him in his career and an opportunity for the filmmaker to work on a much wider canvas.
Mohanlal had announced the project as L367 in January and was excited about working with Vishnu Mohan and producer Gokulam Gopalan. The actor described it as a new chapter and hoped to draw the blessings and support of his fans when production started.
Arjun Rampal and Bhagyashri Borse Join the Cast
The film has also expanded its ensemble cast. Bollywood actor Arjun Rampal and actress Bhagyashri Borse are among the prominent names associated with Operation Ganga. Their presence adds a pan-Indian dimension to the project alongside Mohanlal’s central presence.
The technical team is equally ambitious. According to reports, Shashwat Sachdev, best known for his work on Dhurandhar, will compose the music, and there will be experienced technical experts from both Indian and international cinema on the project.
A Grand-Scale Mohanlal Project
Operation Ganga is a big project of Sree Gokulam Movies on a huge scale. An earlier L367 announcement by Sree Gokulam Movies stated that filming would take place at various locations in India and abroad, reflecting the global story.
Recent reports indicate that the film has already gone on floors in Georgia, and Mohanlal is expected to join the shoot soon. The production is being presented as one of the major projects in the Sree Gokulam Movies lineup.
With Mohanlal as the lead actor, Vishnu Mohan as the director, and a story inspired by extraordinary real-life events, Operation Ganga: A Nation’s Promise has become one of the most eagerly awaited projects in Indian cinema. Details about the storyline, release date, additional cast members, and other technical crew are expected to be announced by the makers soon.
For Mohanlal fans, the transformation of L367 to Operation Ganga marks the start of a potentially ambitious film that mixes a major star, a National Award-winning young filmmaker, and a story based on one of India’s most significant evacuation missions.
