Anil Kapoor said that your achievement is a testament to all those artists around the world who put their heart and soul into cinema. Thank you for your talent and your friendship, which I will always cherish… Kapoor and Cruise worked together in the 2011 film ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol’. Directed by Brad Bird, the film’s screenplay was written by Josh Appelbaum and André Nemec. It was the fourth film in the ‘Mission: Impossible’ series and also featured actors like Jeremy Renner and Simon Pegg.

Mission: Impossible

“Mission: Impossible” is not a physical place or cultural site, but a long-running American spy action film and television franchise. It began as a 1966 TV series created by Bruce Geller and was later rebooted into a blockbuster film series starring Tom Cruise in 1996. The franchise is famous for its high-stakes plots, elaborate heists, and Cruise’s commitment to performing increasingly dangerous stunts.

Academy Award

The Academy Award, commonly known as the Oscar, is an annual American award for artistic and technical merit in the film industry. It was first presented in 1929 at a private dinner hosted by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which was founded in 1927 to honor outstanding cinematic achievements. The iconic gold statuette has since become one of the most famous and prestigious awards in global entertainment.

Top Gun

“Top Gun” refers to the United States Navy Fighter Weapons School, a prestigious military training program for elite fighter pilots. Established in 1969 at Naval Air Station Miramar, California, it was created to enhance air combat skills following lessons learned from the Vietnam War. The school gained worldwide fame through the 1986 blockbuster film “Top Gun,” which dramatized the intense training and culture of its pilots.

Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol

“Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” is not a physical place or cultural site, but the title of the fourth film in the Mission: Impossible action spy series. The plot revolves around the IMF agency being disavowed and hunted after being falsely implicated in a terrorist bombing, forcing the team to operate without resources or backup. The title “Ghost Protocol” refers to this disavowed status, a key narrative device driving the film’s events.
