“Operation Valentine” was based on the 2019 Pulwama Attack and the retaliatory Balakot Air Strikes, was directed by Shakti Pratap Singh Hada.

She was recently seen in Ali Abbas Zafar’s science fiction action film "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan” starring Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Manushi, Alaya F, and Sonakshi Sinha. The film is co-produced by Jackky Bhagnani, Vashu Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh, and Himanshu Kishan Mehra under Pooja Entertainment and AAZ Films.

Zafar had once revealed how he shot the movie in the old school style and in real locations to give the audience an unforgettable cinematic experience. Zafar was heard saying, "The budget was the biggest pressure that the actors and the makers of a film always experience because when you want your product to look classy, international and at a level where people say it's a visual spectacle, you need to spend that much money."

Giving examples, Zafar noted: "If you want to do motorbike stunts and each bike costs Rs4 lakh, and if the stunt goes wrong, you immediately lose Rs4 lakh. If you are blowing up a car worth Rs30-40 lakh and if the stunt doesn't go as planned, you lose that much money straightaway."

He added: "There were stunts in 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' where the spend on one day was Rs3-4 crore, with all the paraphernalia, all the technicians and all the choppers, everything together was very expensive."

Meanwhile, Manushi is set to appear in the action thriller "Tehran”, directed by Arun Gopalan and produced by Dinesh Vijan. She will be seen starring opposite action star John Abraham in the geo-political film. Vijan has produced more than 30 films. Some of his notable productions include, "Love Aaj Kal" (2009), "Cocktail" (2012), "Badlapur" (2015), "Stree" (2018), "Bala" (2019), "Bhediya" (2022), "Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya" (2024), and Stree 2 (2024).
