In the high reaches of the mighty Himalayas, thirty-two Indian Air Force men are trapped in a high-altitude Whiteout as their campsite collapses under relentless snow and rising winds. As temperature plummets, visibility crashes, and there is no hope for rescue, the battle between orders that say "hold position" and the mountains that say "move or die" begins; tough decisions need to be taken and taken fast. Three men, the commanding officer and his two instructors, hold the key for the survival of the 32 souls. The nearest haven, Marhi, lies 16 km away. Hostile terrain and an unrelenting snowstorm stand between the 32 trapped men and Marhi. Defying protocol, the trio leads the team braving the blinding blizzard. As bodies strain and minds collapse, fear, doubt, and exhaustion raise their heads. Whiteout is a story from the eyes of the 26-year-old deputy leader who, along with his fellow mate, rises to the challenges and battles not just the terrain but also memories of a friend left behind at base and the longing to be back with her. Built on trust, brotherhood, and raw courage, Whiteout is a true story of leadership under impossible pressure—where decisions are measured in heartbeats, survival is earned step by step, and the line between command and conscience, the leader and the led, blurs in the snow and binds the men together. When the mountains demand obeisance and brook no negotiations, only grit, camaraderie, and memories of loved ones back home become your guiding beacon. Do they all make it safely back to their homes?
