Exclusive: Akshat Saxena says he would've done a 'fantastic job' as MiG fighter pilot in Operation Safed Sagar

Akshat Saxena has taken an unusual route into acting. A commercial pilot with nearly 8,000 hours of flying experience, Saxena has now made his screen debut with Operation Safed Sagar. His first acting project also has a personal connection for him, as his father was an Indian Air Force fighter pilot and was part of the operation that inspired the series.
