In the wake of heightened tension between India and Pakistan in the aftermath of the developments during Operation Sindoor 2025, actress Alia Bhatt went to Instagram with a poignant tribute to the Indian Army and the relatives of killed soldiers. In an emotional message, Alia pondered the emotional effect of recent happenings and the unseen strength of the remaining families, particularly mothers.
Alia Bhatt Pens Emotional Note For Indian Army Soldiers
In her letter, Alia wrote of a profound feeling of stillness and disquiet that she feels has gripped the nation over the last few days. She wrote that the mood has been tense and oppressive, with citizens all across India being acutely aware of the soldiers that are deployed in high-risk areas, quietly guarding while the rest of the country sleeps in relative ease. She pointed out that the courage of these men and women is something more than a sense of duty, it is a gesture of unparalleled sacrifice.
Alia wrote poignantly about the mothers of soldiers, characterising them as pillars of strength who sleep with fear and pride. She highlighted the jarring disparity between common Mother’s Day celebrations and the situation encountered by women whose children are fighting at the front. These are women, she noted, who suppress their tears with great courage while bearing the weight of doubt.
The actress further showed respect to the lives lost in the recent military campaign as “heroes who will never come back home.” She recognized the immense grief experienced by the country and wished that their families be reassured by the appreciation and solidarity of the nation. Her message ended on a call for peace and unity. Alia asked Indians to recall these sacrifices not only during times of war but on a daily basis, and to give strength and love to the families who still live with the aftereffects of war. “We stand together,” she asserted, signing off on a patriotic “Jai Hind.”
On the professional front, Alia was last seen in Jigra opposite Vedang Raina. She is currently gearing up for her next release, Alpha, where she stars alongside Sharvari Wagh. Alia also has Love & War, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, in the pipeline. The film marks her reunion with Raazi co-star Vicky Kaushal and also stars Ranbir Kapoor.
