Operation Tral released its first song, Jai Ho, on the eve of Independence Day, Mathrubhumi reports. Sudhir Yaduvanshi has sung the patriotic track, while writer-director Ratheesh Vega composed its music and background score. Irshad Dalal wrote the lyrics. The pan-Indian investigative thriller stars Jayasurya as NIA officer Harshavardhan and is set against intelligence and counter-terrorism operations in Tral, Jammu and Kashmir. Bollywood Hungama describes the plot as an NIA investigation into a deadly convoy attack, while Mathrubhumi says the film draws inspiration from an encounter between security forces and terrorists. Produced by Joby George Thadathil under Goodwill Entertainments, the film will release in Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Hindi.
