Taking to their Instagram Stories, both Deepika and Kangana shared powerful images of the women officers - Wing Commander Vyomika Singh, an accomplished helicopter pilot with the Indian Air Force, and Colonel Sophia Qureshi from the Indian Army’s Corps of Signals — who led the communication. DP, saluting the courage and strength of India’s women in uniform, accompanied the photo with the words “Jai Hind” along with the hashtag #OperationSindoor and a Tricolour GIF.
Kangana, on the other hand, known for her outspoken views, shared her sentiments in a note written in Hindi which loosely translates to “Pakistani terrorists felt pity for our women, but our women felt no pity for them.”
In her statement to ANI, Ranaut added, “At the sight of our mothers and daughters, their husbands were gunned down. Those deaths are being avenged."
On Wednesday, actors Rajinikanth, Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, Allu Arjun and many others from the film industry, praised the Indian armed forces for carrying out missile strikes in retaliation to the terror attack in Pahalgam that claimed the lives of 26 civilians.
The operation which was jointly carried out by the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force, with the mobilisation of assets and troops, reportedly struck nine terror targets using special precision munitions, destroying four in Pakistan, including Bahawalpur, Muridke, Sarjal, and Mehmoona Joya, and five in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK).
