New Delhi [India]: India’s successful execution of Operation Sindoor — a precision strike targeting terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) — has drawn widespread praise, not just from political leaders but also from prominent figures in the Indian film industry.
The military action was launched in response to the heinous terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22, which claimed the lives of 26 innocent civilians. The retaliatory strikes reportedly neutralized nine terror camps affiliated with groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), both designated as terrorist organizations by India, the United Nations, and several other countries.
Superstar Rajinikanth took to X (formerly Twitter), writing:
“The fighter’s fight begins… No stopping until the mission is accomplished! The entire NATION is with you. @PMOIndia @HMOIndia #OperationSindoor JAI HIND.”
Actor Akshay Kumar also saluted the operation, simply posting:
“Jai Hind, Jai Mahakal.”
Actress Kangana Ranaut praised the boldness of the strike, stating:
“OPERATION SINDOOR: ZERO TOLERANCE TO TERROR. The Indian Armed Forces launched a precision mission… #OperationSindoor #NewIndia.”
Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar expressed solidarity via Instagram Stories:
“Our prayers are with our forces. One nation, together we stand. Jai Hind, Vande Mataram.”
Actor Suniel Shetty added,
“Terror has no place. Zero Tolerance. Total Justice. #OperationSindoor.”
Riteish Deshmukh also shared his respect for the military with a patriotic note:
“Jai Hind ki Sena… Bharat Mata ki Jai.”
Actor Vikrant Massey posted a simple yet powerful message on Instagram:
“Jai Hind.”
Union Home Minister Amit Shah, in an official statement, praised the operation as a strong response to the Pahalgam attack:
“Proud of our armed forces. Operation Sindoor is Bharat’s response to the brutal killing of our innocent brothers in Pahalgam. Bharat remains firmly committed to eradicating terrorism from its roots.”
Sources confirmed that the operation was personally monitored by Prime Minister Narendra Modi through the night. The Ministry of Defence stated that the strikes targeted key terrorists and infrastructure responsible for attacks on Indian soil.
