An excerpt from the letter read, “I appreciate the genuine effort made by the entire crew in depicting realistic battle scenes of the Kargil war and the esprit-de-corps of the Indian Army. This movie, like other war movies in the past, will motivate us all.”

Shabbir wrote, “Humbled and beyond delighted to have received such high praise for #Shershaah from our Chief of the Army Staff, Gen Naravane. Our years of hard work have paid off. Long live Vikram Batra. Long live the Indian Army!”

Directed by Vishnu Varadhan, ‘Shershaah’ was co-produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions. The movie charts the life of Captain Vikram Batra, who laid down his life during the 1999 Kargil War.
